PBRILOUS VOYAGE 01‘ THE STEAMBR GALABRM. From the Liverpool Post. On the 13th of November the Calabda, of the Cunard line, loosened from her moorings at Jersey City, swung out into the river, and commenced her voyage across vhe lreucher. ous waters. About 12 o‘cioek on SunC‘ay night, the 17th, one of the fiercest hurricanes that ever rwept across the Atlantic (as attest the numberless wrecks) burst upon us. I was awakened by being jerked half way out of my berth by‘ the lurch or the vessel. I glanced out ofth‘e port-hole ;, the scene \’ as Irightful. The sea, which a. few hours before was so calm, had risen in its awful might. The waves, running mountains high, were lashed into fury by the wind, which blew with a. violence perfectly inconceivable, roaring round the vessel and through the rigging with the noise of thunder. The ship was dashed from side to side, as with the force of an earthquake, carecning over until the sea. washed her decks. She would right herself with a bound that AT SEA IN A FEARFUL HURMCANE-aPUTTING THE SHIP ABOUT BETWEEN THE MOUNTAIN SWELLsâ€"NARROW ESCAPE FROM FOUNDERING _'1‘HE EVENT DESCRIBED BY 'A PASSENGER. MADE EVERY TIMBER CRACK, then mounting the crest 'of a huge wave she would plunge downward (as it seemed) to the bottom of the sea. We held on for our very lives. Many of the passengers ran from their rooms with blanched faces, and braced themselves in the gangway, expecting every moment the destruction of the vessel. The dishes-and glasses in the saloon came down with a, crash from the racks, and were broken into thousands of pieces. The pitchers,wash bowls, water jugs, and, and glasses in the staterooms were torn from their i‘astenings and dashed to atoms. The statm‘vrvm doors were hurled open, and trunks, .valilel, cloâ€" thing, &c., thrown c‘ear across tire gangxmy. Oh, how we longed for daylight! .jt; muons was the dashing of the vessel it was Lilith-St impossible to maintain an upright position. It was only by bracing my back against the side of the stateroom, with my feet against the berth, that I could save myself. Those ‘ who attempted to move about were dashed from side to side, in imminent risk of their i lives. Meanwhile ' We attempted to run before the wind. The main topsoil was torn into ribbons and carried away; thé very chain which hold it to the yard-arm, with links nearly a qumtci‘ of an inch thick, was snapped like a. towe string. Having no sail, the engines alon- were unable to carry us out of the way of the tremendous waves which swept; upon us The time came woen dery wave burst over the stem of the vessel, striking her under the quarter like Titanic sledge-hammers. It seemed impossible for her to withstand the The Eecrology of LIST‘Z. RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO, CANADA, FRIDAY, JAN. 10, 18743, THE HURRICANE INCREASED a blows. At every stroke we could hear the} sharp ting, ting of the signal, showing that our brave captain was on the watch, and from 1 his bridge was telling the men at the wheel to hold her steady. Directly over my state-‘ room, on deck, a rope had been stretched from one railing to the other for the men to hold by, to keep them from being swept overboard” I could hear them,»as catching sight of an enormous wave coming, they would run for their lives, THEIR ONLY SALVATION BEING THE ROPE. I trembled for fear they would not- Catch it. It was also a signal for me, and I braced myself accordingly. The lifeboat had been swept away and lost. The skylights of the Wheelhousc gave way, and the men at the wheel stood to their waists in water. I‘he captain came down with an anxious face, and examined the chains which held « the wheel to thehelm. In going up on deck again, he paused a moment to speak to Mr. Yates of St. John’s, N. 13., who was standing in the smokehouse. At that moment a mighty wave broke over the vessel; da-hed in the. side of the room where they were standing, washed the captain from his feet, and threw him against the donkey engir e, to Which he clung for his life. Shortly. after he called a council of his officers, and the opinion of all was that it they continued on their course the vessel must soon go down under the weight of water which was poured upon her from behind, That most cangerous of all experi- ments was resolved uponâ€"our only hopeâ€" to put the ship about and bring her head to the sea. There were eight chances against us to two in our favor. Yet it was done suc- cessfully. An old sailor afterward remarked to me, “ It was the finest piece 01 seamanship ever seen in the Atlantic, turning the vessel round in the teeth of that gale.” THE G BEAT DANGER was that in bringing her round she would fall ofi‘ into the trough of the sea, and the waves, striking her broadside,would sink her. The captain, standing on his bridge, watched his oppertunity, as she mounted a. tremendous wave, and saw that she would have time to come round before ti o next wave struck her. He gave the signal. The six men at the wheel threw their strength upon the helm, and the old ship groaned, strained, and keelu’ ovur, until the saloon portholes were nncot water. She hung so long in that position mat the panic-stricken passengers concluded that she would never right herself again. I n’iyself gave up all hope. Visions of wrecks, of laundered vessels, hid thousands of fath- oms deep, of pale skeletons in seaweed wind- ing sheets, of salt-lined bones and grinning skulls, which lay thickly strewn on the sandy floor, came before me, and grasping my wife by the hand I waited to hear the water gurgle through the portheles and creep through” the tiglitly-battened doors. For the space of‘ii minute the vessel lay in that position, and then slowly rightedfihould I live a thousand years I will never forget the sensation of that moment when life seemed to TREMBLE 1}!

Toward } noon the fury of the storm somewhat abated. 3 The waves, although running high, did not‘ chase each other so inriously. Anew top- sail was rigged up, and we put about again; and ran with the wind. It was a. perilous, voyage nearly; the, whole way._ Capt. Mcâ€" Mickan said that for thirty-five years or the ocean he had not had so rough ,a. passage. The storm seemed to gather its Iorce again as we neared the Irish coast, and when we got into the Channel it was blowing a. furious gale; so severe, indeed, was it that we were unable to make Queenstown. Night came on, and we were withoutu pilot. We sent up rocket after rocket, but there was no response. COULD LIVE such a sea. We passed the spot where e Cambria went down with all hands on board, injust such a gale; passed the spot where the Royal Charter was dashed to ‘ piutes on the rock-bound coast, leaving 1 scarcely one to tell the talc. Cautious] y ire i felt our way in the inky darkness. Every ‘ few rods the captain drew a bucket of water',; i and, dipping the thermometer into it, would \ judge of our locality by the temperature oi the water. So that night of anxiety, of dread apprehension, passed away, and when morning broke we had crossed the bar, and Liverpool was in sight.

Passing along Ralac‘a street last night, our reporter was attracted by a crowd in front of the Stadacona Hotel, and, hearing that a rumpus was gO‘ng on within, be en- tered and got to work with his note-book. But for his vigilance the public would never have lxeen'favored with the following chap- ter of history, which he presents as a sort of New Year‘s gift. It is always well, in nar- rating great events, to start with the and work along to the results. So in this case we will hasten slowly. Some three months ago a party of three, gentleman, wife and daughter, arrived from the United States and took up their quarters in the Stadacona Hotel. They were accommodated with one of the best rooms, and they lived in style for the couple of weeks in which they paid their home. But from that \ime until yesterday the proprietor never saw u. cent (‘f their money, while the hotel bill ran up to a very considerable sum. He was the recipient of‘ many promises to pay, remittances were ‘ always to come, and which never did come, but at last it was confessed by the debtors that they had no money to receive, and did i not expect to get any. The proprietor was ‘ extremely considerate in his dealings, he did I not press for payment or give any | TROUBLE though he felt, that such a. style of doing business was getting played cut. Finally ! the debtor, after many shifts, agreed to leave the Hotel, aft er signing a written agreement, to allow. the luggage of the party contained in seine half dozen trunks, to remain as m:- curity for the payment of the debt. So uur good, the trunks were locked up in the host’s own room, and the guests took their depart- ure. The head of the family, however, was BAILIFFS ON THEIR MUSCLE. MUSCLE versus LAW. [From the Quebec Chronicle] G AUSES not satisfied with his agreement so he went and consulted ' represexiting that his luggage had been ille- gallydetained, and obtaining a. writ of saisie revendicatz'one. Here the trouble-in-chief be- gan. Two bum-bailiffs were sent to execute the writ, and for fear they could not Succeed in dging the work, the lawyer went with them to the hotel. They ehtered the house, having previously secured the attendance of a MUSCULAE FRIEND and demanded, on the strength of the writ, the goods. The proprietor refused-rte deliver them. The bailiffs threatened to use force, and raised their usually mellifluous voices far above concert pitch, at! acting the at. mition of passers-by, and cobecting a crowd in the street. They persisted in their de- mands, and while the limb of the law and one bum-bailiff engaged the attention of the landlord, the other got into the room and hauled out a. couple of the trunks. Then they made threatening demonstrations to- ward the proprietor, while the muscular friend went gaily tor the porter. The porter was seienced however and in less than three- quarters of a minute he had knocked the amateur pugilist ' OUT OF TIME, and ornamented him with a pair of black ey'Ies and a demoralized proboscis to do his New Year’s visiting with.

That gentle child of the Flowery Land re- treated until he got his back ‘ against the wall, and repulsed all attacks with the heel of a mighty brogan, with a footinside,which he flourished gracefully and powerfully around his head, to the terror of all assail- ants. But as numbers pressed around, and the situation was becoming more desperate, he made a flank movement for a. cleaver, and was just about performing an operation upon the head. of the lawyer, whose part in the entertainment was a prominent one, when the cook planted the sole of his boot in the pit of the stomach of the “ heathen Chince," effectually disabling him. In the meantime sundry other fantastic opera- tions were being carried on. The porter was knocked down, anddragged, with a SPRAINED ANKLE into the barber‘s shop, ’and Bailiff Taylor, mounting a. trunk, declared his “ hintention to cart hofi the baggage hor die in the hat- tvmpt,” while Bailiff" Dion was more quietly though more ponderously trying to do his share of the work. The lawyer stood in the doorway engaged in the dignified occupation of assisting the bum-bailifis, and defying any one to close ‘the door. The proprietor lacked all the doors and refused to allow any one in or out. Taylor declared he would take out an action for false imprisonment. unless he' was allowed to leave.

WAsmNGTon,'Dec. 29, 1872. To Mr. Gallu_s Shopann, Egitoyz‘dtc: DEAR Sm : In my letterof the 9th, I exposed the groundlessness of thereport that. two crim- inals had been pardoned in Gera on con- dition of emigrating to America. The re- ception which your valuable sheet gave to the letter leads me to rrake the following further explanation. At the same time with the Gem story there was circulated in the Ameiican press another report according to which a man by the name of Dryfuss, guilty of arson and murder in Mecklenbnrg, and under arrest in Dreybergen, has also been released under express condition of emigrat- ing. This story was pretended to‘be taken from the Mecklenburg News. At my request,- by decree of Prince Bismark on the 3rd inst, the most thorough investigation was ordered of the report, and. I am today able to say‘ that this news, like the other is a pure in- : vention, Since the memory of man no criminal by the name 01 Dryfuss has been arrested in Dreybergcn, and no sugh journal as the Mechlenburg News exists. After all this, it seems to me time that the paper that sets such tales going in the American Press should speak out piainly as to their source, since these last reports, like many others= ap- pear to have ior their sole object to disgust Germans living in America with their Father- land.

In 1861 Italy had only 2,200 kilometres, about 1,600 miles; now she has over 4,000 miles, with 35,000 miles of telegraph, against 11,000 miles ten years back. Even Sicily and Sar- dinialbave their railroads. The ports have been either enlarged or have been tarnished with better accommodations in the way of docks, warehouses, and facility for loading and discharging. The harbor ot Brindisi (the ancient Brunduslum) has been dredged anew, and is now a railroad terminus as well as a po‘rt of departure for the Indo- European trade, The various mountain ranges by which Italy is traversed 0r landlocked have been pierded by tunnel. All newspaper readers are fa- miliar with the great tunnel of Mount Cenis by which communication is established be- tween Italy and France; but this is not the only great engineering triumph oi the new kinngm. The Brenner pass in the North has beenalso cleared, and the tunnel of St.. Gothard has been commenced, by which the Baltic will be brought into communication with the Mediterranean, and the middle age ‘ friendship between the . Hauseatic league of free German cities and the independent maritime cities of the south, famous alike for their love of art and their success’ in war_ and commerce, may be renewed. NEW srssmsmr mass. The Italian revival has some fruit in the inauguration of new Mediterran n steam- ship lines, whose vessels appear periodically in the port-’01 New York and connect the oldest world with the newest. Truetthat Italian capital has done but little in the new enterprise, but Italian concessions have me.- terially helped. Italian ports are also in regular communication with the far East by means of the Suez Canal. What influence the shorter transport of goods, mails and passengers by the Italian route between the East and Northern Europe may have on European» commerce is as yet in- definite. But it is reasonable to sup- pose that the gain ’in time and distance will tell against France, and especi- ally Marseilles. Among the concessions or charters granted by the ltalian Government we find one of 1872 in favor of the Rubattino Company of Genoa. This and other contracts stipulated for a service between Alexandria and the several Italian pelts, which shall employ seventyâ€"live steamers of 1,000 tons each. These cannot but give a prodigious impulse to Italian commerce, although doubtless the capital and the vessels themâ€" selves will bc drawn chiefly from British capitalists and shipyards. The Anchor line, from the port of New York, has already thought it worth while to make a bold bid for the Italian trade, and announces a regular service between New York and the Mediter- ranean ports. Her Induslrml and Financial Develop- ment. national ..a$ivaegemnh has ups been unwind: ml of home resources. ‘ 'The» aeuairy: is"'ré- nowned for its fertility and for the 'variety and value of its sevural productions. Wheat, oil,‘wine, fruits, seeds, silk, flax, and hemp are almost indigenous. With the variety of soil and climate included in the mountain slopes", the rich alluvial lands of the north and center, and the semi-tropical climate of Sicily, Italy has a range of tree selection in ‘all precious commodities. Evenr’the sugar- cane is a possibility scarcely lesshopeful than our own Louisiana cane plantations once were. Beet-root sugar factories, which have been so successful in France and Belgium as to largely supply the de- mand, have already been introduced in Italy with marked success. Italian wines ase com- paratively unknown out of Italy, those of France, Portugal, and Germany supplying the markets, but they are already favorably known even in New York, and there is no reason why they should not take their place among the exports. The new Itafian Government, while look, inng tgteign comment? as a means of rapid The agricultural products of the Italian kingdom are equalled, if not surpassed, by her mineral resources, when these latter are once brought in contact with speculative capital. Italian marble already holds the first place. Elba gives iron ore scarcely in- ferior to that of Sweden. Zinc and lead are found in Sardinia. Sicily supplies the world with sulphur, to which may be added alum, borax, coloring earths, &:c. The mineral products have doubled their annual value since “the kingdom”; and zinc in particu- lar is in active demand to supplement the insufficient yield of this important article for the modern industrial arts. Italian statistics refer with regret to the la‘sk of fisheriesâ€"that nursery of seamanship and maritime adventure to which so many countries and cities owe so much of their commerce.» italy has nearly 3,000 miles of coast, but the Mediterranean is notbriously deficient 0t usciul fish. The tunny, the anchovy, andsardine are the principal take of the Italian coasts. The latter are caught in‘ enormous quantities, but they are dressed and made marketable by French hands and with French :accompaniuents; Itlly inking back her own commodity in its perfected condition. She‘has, by all accounts, a. valu- able nucleus of hardy native seamen, which may yet be developed into an active, ener- getic body worthy of the old Genoese and Venetian fame, when the Italian galleys swept the seas and fought the Turk within sight of Constantinople, Lyons, for a. long‘ time capital of - the European silk trade, now feels the Milanese competition. Ten years 33; Milan turned out only one-third the quantity of manu- factured silk made by Lyons. Nowf she turns out 20 per cent. more and uses up, 2,500,000 kilogrammesâ€"nearly 6,000,000 poundsâ€"of the raw material. Turin is not less active. Ten years ago ,the did nothing, now she works up nearly £500,000 kilogrammes. Milan has n consid- erable cotton industry. Cot.on factories are also found in Bel-gamo, Pisa, and elsewhere, she few material being in both cases drawn from Syria. and India. in woollen goods, certain descriptions of which have always been made in Italy chiefly for home use,there is a. growing industry. Italy produces, it is believed, as much cloth as Belgium. Sevens, ‘ from which Marseilles first drew the soap- making industry, holds her own again; and the crushing and treatment of seed oils, which has been a. most important item of Marseillaise commercehis resumed with vigor both at Genoa and Leghorn. EXPORTS AND IMPORTS. In a report by Finance Minister Sella, December, 1871, we find that the ten years’ average of ’61â€"’71 gave $100,000,000 worth of imports. These figures, though not to be compared with the vast totals of England or America, are not insignificant when measurnd with other national returns, and show a. steady advance corresponding to the progress of political order and unity. The principal articles in thetradeare woollen and cotton goods, petroleum, 0031, eugennnd AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS MINERAL RESOURCES. ITALY. FISHERIES. farm implements. The exports are still more favorable. Ten years ago they only reached $115,0000,000 ; in 1871 they reached $210,000,000. The chief exports were of raw materials, zinc, oil, lead and sulphur,- The Finance Minister, in cencludlng his report, reiers to the dealings of a people being substantially the same as that of a family, “ there is room to rejoice when we produce more than we consume; in national words, when exports exceed imports." NATIONAL Frames. Paper money was issued in 1866, and is on 9 satisfactory basis, gold being worth about 108. Italian 5 per cents. are worth 75. Mtanwhile, domestic enterprise is chiefly sustained by domestic capital. The flow tax will probably return $12,000,000; the property tax, $36,000,000 ; the income tax, $32,000,000; salt and tobacco (Government lmposts in every country of continental Europe), $30,000,000 ; stamp duties, $19,000,- 000; customs, $17,000,000; lotteries, $.14; 000,000. The total budget embraces about 1,200,000,000 of francs ($240,000,000), as before indicated, the income, although stead- ily increasing, is not equal tothe outgo. This, in a newly-organized Government conflict- ing withso many untoward dircumstances, external and internal, is not matter of sur.- prise; still it is a serious charge on the people. For the year 1872 there is probably adeficiency of $40,000,000. The need 0: filling this annual gull .‘justifies the conver- sion of ecclesiastical property to lay purposes. Those who object to this appropriation re- gard neither financial nor political causes for what theyconsider an act of apoliation. But the Roman annexation has involved the kingdom in a heavy explnse, both by the changes of administration as also by the in- dorsement of Papal States liabilities. â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"->.o~-4â€"-â€"~â€"-â€"â€"â€",-â€"â€" In some remarkable instances, where the location or the burial places of celebrated personnges has been in dispute, the work of identification has been accomplished by the discovery of what were plainly perceived to be the remains of the individual in question In other instances the body has been com.- pletely identified by the close resemblance of the face of the corpse to extant pictures,busts or come. The identification of the remains of Henry IV., in Canterbury cathedral, utter the lapse of nearly four centuries and a half, is an example of the first class of cases; the identification of the remains of Charles 1., after 165 years, of the second class. The res mains of Charles _I. were completely identi- fied by the striking resemblance of the coun- tenance, notwithstanding its disfigurement, to its portrait, and by the fact that the neck was found smoothly divided across. We have the [allowing particulars of the excel- lent condition, after 165 yearspf a body sud: denly deprived of life, embalmed and in, terred in lead: 0n removing part of the lead cpfiin fly inner coffin of wool, much decayed, mpg exposed, and within this‘tho body wrapped in cerc-cloth. into the folds of which an. unctuous matter mixed with resin had been pomed to exclude thq air. The cofiin was quite full, and on removing the covering from the face the skin was found dark and dbcdeaedmexmheaiand~mmpleu9re preserved, the cartilage of the nose gone; the characteristic pointed beard perfect, the left ear entire andxthe left eye open and full,»though it vanished on exposure; The head was found loose, and was easily taken out and held to view. V It was heavy, wet with a. liquid which-gave to writing-paper and linen a greenish red tinge, the textures of the neck were solid, and the back part of the scalp was perfect and of a remarkablefresh appearance. The hair of the head was a beautiful dark brown, that of the beard of a redder tint. The divided musâ€" cles of the neck had retracted considerably, and the smooth surface of the divided veru tebrw was visible. ' ' In the same vault in which Charles I. was interred, Henry VIII. had been deposited. The leaden cofiin, which had been inolosed in a thick elm case, appeared to have been beaten in, so as to leave an opening large enough to expose a mere skeleton of the king, with some beard upon the chin. The body of the king had then been interred 266 years. To the preservation of bones it is impossible to set any limit of time. The bones of King Dagobert, disinterred from the church of St. Denis after 1,200 years, others from Pompeii after 1,800 years, and othersâ€"as parts at Egyptian mummiesâ€"- full 2,000 years oldâ€"attest their permen. enoe. Terms ; One |Dolldr [per [Advanm The winter of 1846 had been intensely cold, and the ice formed on Lake Erie was very thick. This was loosened around the shores" by the warm days of early spring, During the day an easterly wind moved the whole field up the lake. About sundown the wind chopped suddenly ‘around and blew a gale from the west. This brought the vast tract of ice down with such tremendous torce that it filled the neck of the lake and the outlet, so that the outflow of the water was very greatly' impeded. Of course it only needed a very short space oi time for the Falls to drain on" the water below Black Rock. The consequence was, that when we arose in the morning at Niagara, we found the river was nearly half gone. i The American chan- ‘ nel had dwindled to a respectable creek. The British channel looked as though it had been smitten with a quick consumption and was fast passing away. Far up from the head of Goat Island, and, out into the Canadian Rapids, the water was gone as it was’also from the lower end ‘of Goat Island, out be- yond the tower. The rocks were hare, black and forbidding. The lost of Niagara had subsided almostto a moan. The scene was desolate, and but for its novelty and the oer- tainty that it would change betore many hours, would have been gloomy and sadden- ' ins. Every person who has ’ visited Niagara will remember a beautiful jet of water which shoots up out of the water about forty rods south of the outer Sister in the great rapids, called with a singular contradiction of terms, the “Leaping “Rock.” The writer drove a buggy from the head of Goat Island out to a point above and near to that jet. With a log cart and four horses he had drawn from the outside of the outer island a stick of pine timber, hewed twelve inches square, and forty teet long. From the t0p of the’middle island was drawn a still larger stick, hewed on the one side, and sixty feet long. There are few places on the globe where a person would be less likely to go lumbering than in the rapids of Niagara, just above the brink of the horse-shoe fall. All the people of the neighborhood were abroad exploring recesses and cavities that had never before been ex- posed to mortal eyes. The writer went some distance up the shore of the river. Large fields at the muddy bottom lay here. The singular syncope of the waters lasted all the day, and night closed over the scene. But in the morring our river was restored in all its strength, beauty and majesty, and we were glad, to welcome its swelling tide once -The first monument in the Brampton, England, cemetery, in that of “Gentan Jack,’ n pugilist.
