DROWSING OF FIVE MEN ON mm COAST
OP NORTH CAROLINA.-Messrs. 13. & J.
Buker, the wreckers, of this port, on
Sunday last, received information of the
lusa of one of their surf boats and the
drowning of live men on thu coast of
North Carolina. The circumstances, as
we learn them from un eye-witness, were
as follows: On Thursday, the 22d nit.,
as the wrecking obtainer B. ? J. Baker
was lying off Oregon Inlet, one of tho
surf boats, with six men, was Bent to the
beach to land a passenger. The landing
had boen effected in perfect safety, and
tho men had started on their return, but
ns a tremendous surf was breaking, three, i
of them became frightened and stopped
rowing. This made the boat unmanage?
able, and wbilo in that condition she
struck a pieco of flouting timber, which
stove a hole in her bottom. The boat I
immediately Oiled, and tho men were1
thrown into the water. They clung on
to the boat as soon as possible, but one
by one became benumbed, and relin?
quishing their hold, were drowned. One
only was saved, a white man by the
name of James Sawyer, who was waahod
ashore clinging to the body of ono of his
drowned comrades. The remains of the
other four were not recovered, and were
probably carried out to sea by the
onder-tow. The men drowned were
John Lewis, Edward Malone and Charles
Moxie, whites, and Miles Wilson and
Barwell Richardson, negroes. The acci?
dent happened within sight of the
steamer, but those on board wore power?
less to render the unfortunate men any
assistance.-Norfolk Virginian.
A fenrful disaster occurred in the river
Platte on the night of the 2?lh of De?
cember last. The Italian steamer Ame?
rica, plying between Baonos Ayres and
Montevideo, burst a steam-pipe, and
coon after the vessel was found to be on
Aro. The flames took possession of the
steamer, the utmost panic occurred on
board, tho crow carried away tho only
available boat?, and of 1S1 persons on
board, only 100 were known to havo
been saved, principally by anothei
steamer making the same trip. The
disaster was attributed, by public rumor,
to the desire of the captain of tho Ame?
rica to arrive before the other steamer,
although the boilers were known to bo j
in u bad condition. Tho terrible nil'.?ir
occurred within twenty-five miles of
Montevideo.

The Bueno! Ayre* Massacre.
Brief mention bas been made of the
horrid massacre and religious fanaticism
at Tandil, Buenos Ayres. A letter dated
January 18 gives the following particu?
lars:
A man named Solares, born in Boli?
via or Gbili, forty years of age, of a
pale copper color, aud with a pleasing
faoe, had settled near Tandil, a village
in the Argentine Goufederation, in a hut
with two rooms, and given out that he
was a messenger of God. Previously
bo had residod in the province of Entre
Bios, giving out that be could divine tho
future, foretelling deaths, and, it is said,
taking measures to give certainty to his
prophecies. Finally, he was driven
awoy by the authorities, after tying him
up and giving bim a flogging. Ho then
went to Rosario, and thence to Azul,
where ho praoticed bis profession, as?
serting that be could cure the blind
merely with his touch. There ho was
arrested by the justice of the peace, on
account ot the disturbances ho was pro?
moting, but was released. Still his re?
putation remained, and ho receive d e.
call to go to the estancia of Senor Ramon
Gomez, situated fourteen miles from tho
village of Tandil, to cure the sterility of
the wife. Ramon Gomez was a cousin
of the justice of the peace for Tandil,
and was himself an official. Seeing him
lodged with this official, tho gauchos
began to yield implicit faith in his pre?
tensions to bo the Saviour of mankind
and the envoy of God. Soon his fume
?prend through the country, and the
half-savage inhabitant.- .nade it a kind
of pilgrimage to go n d visit Solares,
who received them in tue hut which hid
proteotor hud assigned to him. Some?
times upwards of 5UU persons were there
at ouce, having come un horse-back and
in wagons in search of tho services ul
the prophet. lu one room he lived, ir
the other were a numbor of images, and
in tho latter he received his visitants,
Money he refused for himself, but ht
always advised them to make offering!
to the images.
The fame of the Tata Dios, or Mar
God, grow mightily. The peopie kneolet
before him and kissed his hands, wor
shipping him as though God himself,
listening with reverence to his occasioua
preaching against foreigners, who, h?
said, wore Masons und enemies of tin
ohurch.
At last, on New Year's Eve, he callee
his disciples together, and declared a:
follows:
"The hour is come to kill tho Masous
to finish with the authorities and to opel
the prisons, to release friends who wil
help us. As soon as you have fulfil If
your mission, the rocking stone of Tau
dil will fall of itself, and beneath it yoi
will Hud a great town. If you do it
God will largely repay your pious zeal
if not, the most terrible punishment wi]
fall upon you aud your children."
His congregation beard and applaud
ed, and before day-light of January 1
fifty of the one hundred and fifty whor
he had called to him assembled behin
his white banner and set out on thei
deadly mission. At day-break, the beal
ing of a drum aroused the inhabitants c
Tandil, and they were told that som
bandits had passed by, assassinating th
people. They then saw in the 6rjuai
the banner of Solares, surrounded b
some fifty gauchos on horseback, decke
with belts und plumes, who had airead
broken open the prison and released th
only prisoner in it.
In the square, the gauchos mut ai
Italian, whom they instantly killed. I
tho outskirts of the village, they m<
convoys of carts, driven by eleven va:
cons, eight of whom they sacrificed o
the spot and wounded three. The

tho store of Mr. Wm. Thompson, whei
they murdered a tervautuud an Euglisl
mau aud his wife, recently marriei
shouting all the time, "Death to tl
Masons! death to all foreigners! kill au
sack I"
At 8.30, they reached tho store of Jen
Chappard, a mau greatly respected in h
neighborhood. There they murder?
eighteen persons-namely, the own

The deaths are too horrible to bo give
Suffice, that thu chin! of two years

Meantime the alarm had spread. T

MR. PUNCH'S LITTLE BILI*.-The Lon?
don Pundi brings a bill against Brothor
Jouatban for indirect damages, among
which are the following items:
For tho use of the works of ancient
English authors, from Wm. Shakspeare
downwards, and for calling them Ameri?
can authors, 100,000,000; for piracy on
modern English authors, and for not
calling a great many of them American
authors, 100,000,000; for insulting the
King's or Queen's English, by speaking
it, for fifty years, nasally, 20,000,000; for
nttomptiug to destroy the monarchical
principles of his Royal Highness the
Prince of Wales, by treating him with
so much kindness and hospitality that
his Royal Highness was induced to think
well of republicans, 100,000,000; for in?
venting Herr Breitmann, instead of
leaving to some Englishman the honor
of inventing him, 100,000.
Punch ulao has an item for twenty
years of violent abuse poured upon Eng?
land by the New York Herald, for which
it charges two and a half pence. The
bill is sigued Gladstone and Punch.
NATURALIZATION RECORD.-The bill
which has been introduced in Congress
for a reoord of naturalization in the
State Department at Washington, pro?
vides thut the department shall keep a
book in which all declaration of inten?
tion to become citizens and actual natu?
ralizations Bindi be systematically entered
and kopt for reference, and that the pro?
cess of naturalization shall in no case be
completo uutil tho entries have been
made. All courts are required to for?
ward tba naturalization papers they issue
to the State Department for record, and
thc department is to give certified copies
of naturalization certificates to persons
who may have lost them, and to publish
every year a list of all tho naturaliza?
tions grouted. Tho alleged necessity of
this measure arises from tho frequent
loss of certificates of naturalization and
the imperfect manner in which the re?
cords of courts authorized to grant such
certificates are kopt, and from the floods
of fraudulent naturalization papers
which aro issued in some of the large
cities just before important elections.
CONSORTIUM. - ..Consortium" is the
latest speculative coinage of tho New
York Stock Exchnnge. There WOB un
advance in Chicago and North-western
common shares from 74^ to 77>? on
Monday, and in the early hours of the
day it was reported that a "consortium"
hail been formed in tho stock, with a
capital of 60,000 shares, on the English
"limited" plan, and that the treasury of
the "consortium" was already in posses?
sion of 35,000 shares, or a little moro
tuan one-half of the total amount of
stock which the "consortium" is limited
to buy. The headquarters of the North
west "consortium" are in William street,
and it is said that its operations have
boen interfered with to some extent by
the outside operations of its members,
who have purchased freely of North?
west to Bell to the "consortium" when
the price is run up a little higher.
BARN AND STADLK BUBNINO.-OQ
Tuesday night, 20th ult., a colored man,
named Lewis Phillips, raised near Wil?
laston, from some cause, we know not
whut, set fire to the barn and stables of
Mr. Bryant Weathorebee. The builings
were fired about 10 o'clock, and entirely
consumed before the flames could be ar?
rested, aud it required all tho skill possi?
ble to save his horses aud mules, about
eight of which were in the stable. The
incendiary, Phillips, was caught, but it
appears succeeded in getting loose, by
making his way across a swamp, but was
pursued by Mr. T. W. Keenan, aud
again captured by him in Orangebarg
Couuty, and on Sunday last he took him
to tho jail of Barnwell, whore board and
lodging will be furnished him.

To the Public.
Tho undersigned, a Committee on behalf of
the Stono-cuttora lately employed ou the
Federal Court Ilouse and Tost Office building
in Columbia, H. C., dosire to give a statement
of tho cast* bo tween thetnuelvaa aud Mr. L. S.
Kingsly, the Superintendent of construction.
Tho facts ot the caso art?, that twenty-one
stono-cntters declined, on yesterday, to con?
tinuo work OD thu new terms laid down by the
said .Superintendent, because tho new regula?
tions aro held to bo illegal, unusual and at
variance with tho agreement, which brought
m-tuy of us fro ru abroad beru.
Tho Government mle is eight working hours
per day. Wo have beuu working niuo boura.
N>>t wishing to make an issuu with tho Super?
intendent ot construction, wu acceded to thu
additional hour, although more than tho Go?
vernment expects of it? employees elsewhere.
When, however, we received notice, a few days
ago, that on March 1st we would be required
Itt work ten hours a day, we felt il duo lu our?
selves not to yiuld to what wo consider an un?
authorized exaction on the part of Hie Super?
intendent charged by thu Government with
th?i construction of tho work upon which we
Were employed. We contend, further, inas?
much as many of us caine hero from a dis?
tance, with thounderstaudiug that our wag. t>
would bu so much per day, that it is not lair
tor thu said wages, without cause, to bu re?
duced. Wu asked only for wnat is uaual with
Federal employ?es un other Government
works.
We shall submit, with confidence, our case
to thc authorities at Washington. Tho issue
thal has buen raised is not of our Becking.
Wo have no dusiru to embarrass tho anthon
tin? in thu prosecution of tho Federal build?
ing beru. We dusiru only to usu ovury legiti
uiato method at our command, io protect our
rights us Workingmen, to observe- our obliga?
tions us such, aud to taku a lina stand
against, as wu regard it, thu unfair require?
ments sought to bu ox ac tod of us.
