Harris., the sh ip recked mariner from Philadelphia who tras placed in St Joseph's infirman* a ferr days ago, has recovered from hts de? lirium, and by request he has prepar ; ed for the JNews a narrative of his ! miraculous escape, ile writes : Wc s loft Philadelphia with a cargo consist ? lng of 210 tons of coal, bound to YVil : mlnglon, N 0. Our crew consisted of five men-twp seamen, one cook, the captain aud mate ; the oldest man on board was only twenty-three years of age. Aller wc rounded Hatteras we were struck by a hurricane. Thc J vessel was wrecked almost instantly, and all of as went into the rigging. I had made up my mind to die. I did I i not think it was possible that I could ! j be saved. The thought never once j crossed my mind. I thought my time i ! had come and made up my mind to j j die like a man. I shook hands with | the captain and bade him good-bye, j asked God to bless us and save us, and j ! then a sea swept over, and the vessel j began to sink. I was under the wa? ter some time before ? discovered the j vessel was sinking. When I did, ? j let go of the rigging and commenced i swimming towards the surface and ; came near suffocating before I reach- j ed it. The first thing I did on reach- ! ing the surface was to get out of my j clothes, so 1 could swim better. Then ? I saw apiece of white pine scantling j floating off. I succeeded in getting j hold of that and managed to keep my- j j self ailoat with it. lt was about four ? j inches square and fifteen feet long. | ! Shortly after I get hold of this, the j ! captain came up. He was nearly gone and did not have life enough hardly to keep his head out of the i water. He soon sank and I never j saw him more. His name was Enoch ? Camp, a native of Philadelphia, aged ! about twenty-one. He was very baud S some. I have been sailing with him I since January 1, ISSI, and we were I like two brothers. Thus the vessel j and all on board perished except my ! self who, through the providence of j God, was saved. j My dog was clinging to the piece j of timber with me. When the ves ! sci went over he was in the cabin ; ! how lie managed to get out I do not I know. -Sometimes the seas would ! : strike us, knocking us away from the j ! piece and nearly drowning us. When t I it would pass away we would swim j back io it again. The poor dog was nearly drowned, and ir's master uot much belier. He would swim up tc me and put his head on nie and whine so piteously, asking me tho best ho could to save him, and to end his suf? ferings I killed him and pushed him away from mc. And then (God for? give me) I tried to drown myself, as i expected every moment to be cut by a shark, and I knew I could net I live much longer that way nohow, so 1 let go and sunk. With eyes and ; mouth open, I drank salt water by the j pint. 1 could stay under very well j unli! I would go to draw i;< my breath ; j then the water won d rush up my i nose, suffocating rue. Then 1 would ; have to conic up again. I made two attempts to drown myself, and then gave it up and awaited until God saw ? fit to lake me. I ofter! sit and think j how it was possible for me to be ? saved, and how I was saved I do not know. I was on that piece of timber about six hours. Sometimes the sea would j wash me off and throw it frome dis-j lance from me ; then I would swim ! ? i back and get hold of it again. After j a long time, or just before night, 11 discovered a larger piece of timber j ! floating ahead of me. After trying : I very hard 1 .finally reached it and j crawled upon it. 1 (bund it to be a ! i piece of the cabin about four feet wide j j and twelve feet long, with titree small ' j windows along one side about 12 by I j IS inches. 1 never had any hope of. j being saved until I got on this piece. I I began lo have some hope then of j ? being saved if I did not starve to j j death. I wished then for my poor i dog I had killed. I was laying at j j full length on my raft, clinging on [ ? each side with my hands, when 1 j ! happened to look over the side, and, ! j oh, heavens and earth \ t?tere ? was j j followed by a pack of hungry sharks ' j swimming all around me. You can ' ?just imagine how 1 feb, and how I j I clung to that raft. Why it was they j I never interfered with mc while I was I j in the water 1 do not know, unless it I j was because I kept in motion all thc i ? time. j Sometimes the sea would break j over my raft and capsize it. Then I j would crawl on top of it again as soon \ j as possible, thinking all thu while of i tho sharks around me and expecting : ! every moment tu be seized by then:, j j ll was now very dark, and the wind j was moderating in a measure and the j sea was going down somewhat, lt j was reit 111 squally and continued so all j night, with rain. Naked and the ! tain beating down upon nie, I felt as j though some one were pelting me j with gravel. I was cold, too, slink-! ing all over, and my teeth knocked j together all night. lluw 1 prayed | 1er nunning. lt was the longest night 1 over spent in my life. Final- ! ly day caine and the squalls blew harder, but I did not think thc seas ; were so high, which was a good sign. ! I was now beginning to fell thirsty : and hungry, and when it would min ', { would hold my heat! tip, upcti my mouth and try to catch some rain water, bul the salt spray would ijy in my mouth. The sharks still kept watch about my tait. Throughout thc (lay i kept a lookout for vessels, though i knew if one should sierht mu : il could not rescue me in that gah;. ; The day (Thursday) passed away and I darkness settled down again upon tho face of the deep. Tito wind inodora-j ted considerably during the night, ; and the sea grew quite smooth, it was calm nearly ail day Friday. 1 , had trot seen a single sail, timi was so [ thirsty 1 ooah! have chunk my own : blood. Thc sharks were still about. Friday and Saturday passed without ! anything t<? mark timm. My mouth and throat were parched. < I wa* exposed lo tuc sun long encngh Saturday to burn my body. Saturday liiffht I did not feel r?crlit in inv hoad, ? Trap growing delirious, and knew it, and tried to shake it off, but could net. Just about dark 1 saw a vessel five or six miles efl", in the direction of which 1 was drifting, and another off to thc right. I soon saw that the o;;e to the right was a light-ship: I imagined that I was close to land, so close that I could sec it plainly, and cried aloud for help. Then 1 would listen to li car some one answer. 1 thought I had some one with me and I sent him in a small boat to ?et mc s^me water and I waited for him to return. Then I would imagine sonic one was handing me a pitcher of ice water I would grab it and drink, only to find it salt. I would try to stand up and would fail overboard, I was so weak. Then I thought my raft waa on land. 1 could see thetrccs and bushes plainly. Then I would jump off ibo raft, thinking I was on land, and would go t?vo or three feet under water. I made scveial attempts during the night to get off on land, but always found waler. At times 1 would think 1 was about to inn into a tree and would put out my hands to stop myself and would go overboard. Then 1 imagined I W;?S OU land, about ! 12 mile? from Wilmington, N. C., and ' I saw men at work, a white and color- j ed roan and a woman. I asked them [ f r waler and they sent me to their j boss. I went to him and he showed ! me a lighthouse and told me I would j have to go there before I got water. 1 Then he put me in a flat-car1 that ran on a railroad, and 1 had j io propel Hie car along with my j feet. I could net get any closer ? to the lighthouse, let me work . hard as I could. Neither could I es- ; cape from the man who sent mc there, ; then I would think the windows in j my raft were beautiful springs of i water, and would get on my hands and knees to drink only to find it salt. Sundav morning the sun rose out j of a clear horizon, not a cloud visible j in the heavens. I discoveied I wa- i on my raft again, but could not think j how I got there. That is the last I thing 1 remember until Monday even- j ing. What I suffered and went j through with ? can never tell. Cant, i S. E. Foote of the steamship Santiago j de Cuba says he picked me up Mon j day morning, somewhere about Bull's j Bay, delirious, and from that kind j gentleman's hands and his' crew I rc- ! coi ved the very best of treatment.- j Savannah, (lia.,) Times. Ancient and Modern Pro-! v* *\ ry KEW STYLE. I JJer eys shone a beautiful joyous j light when he leaned forward and i said : "Julia. I have something confider! bal to tell you. "What is it, Augustus ?" she asked j in a low silvery voice-a kind of Ger- j man silvery voice. "Well Julia, to bc frank with yon, | I think"-and thou he seemed tc? be | thinking. "I think," he said, "that j under the circumstances T mi^-ht love i you. Now do you love me :" "Yes. Augustus, I do love yon- j you know I do ; and she flung her i alabaster arms around his neck. "i am very glad, Julia," he said, j "for I like to be loved." "Well, Augustus." But Augustus never said another j word. Fashinable fellows never say j more than that nowadays. They were 2;ever married. OLD STYLE "May I call you Paula ?" he asked j modestly. "Yes," she said foi at ly. "Dear Paula, may 1 call you ! that ?" "I suppose so." j "Do you know I love 3*011 ?" "Yes"." "And shall I love you al wa vs?" "If you wish to." "And will you love me ?" Paula did not reply. '.Will you Paula?" he repeated. ''You may love me," she said : i agai n.

Moral.-Girls, never tell a fellow j that you love him till he asks you to ! be his wife. A correspondent of the Columbia ! Register, writing from Ba tesl? 11 rg, ! says: Captain Bales obtained one; dozen carp from Commissioner Buller i two years ago, winch he pul into a : small, muddy pond live or six foot \ deep, about 40 x 60 yards, surround-j ed by weeds and shrubbeiy*. This ; afternoon he determined to drain off; thc pond and invited several of bis j friends to witness the failure or sue- ' cess ol' his carp enterprise, as he : never knew alter he put them in ! whether 1)103* lived or not. The re ali- j zation of Iiis success exceeded his most sanguine hopes. Ile got eight of the carp first put in, and about a hundred young on~s averaging about ; one pound, lt seems the first twelve : spawned in IT. o Spring of 1SS.0 and j last spring, and the young ones, two : sizes, are eighteen and six months old.

A Valuable Minc of it Discovered in 2\cw Orleans. One of our New Orleans exchanges says: 'The fire, which labt nigh? cou sumed the residence of Patrick Clarke, Esq., on St. Charles street, corner of Constantinople, uncovered a deposit of guano and phosphates which, it is pre? dicted, will prove MU important factor in the fertilization cf the wornout hill lands of the South. Wc are informed tba* a gentleman who is familiar wi;h th.: phosphate beds of South Carolina, wu'^n are worth millions, thinks this an outcropping of thc same stratum. Thu main guan^ deposit is said to lie directly on the top of -lr. Cinrkc's cis? tern. Of course much of it has been washed into thc cistern by thc rains of the last two decades, but thc supply ir;* fight is still ampio. The character of this deposit was not known until the arrival of the Babcock engine ?t thc fire, but as soon as the engine began to play upo'i it the acid acted directly up? on the gua-io, and liberated such vol? umes ol'ammonia as for a time to drive back our brave fir: boys. The phosphate bed covers thc entire premises, is elevated four or (ive feet above thc street, and is of unknown depth. Tho matter is being investiga? ted by a scion ti.le ger.-r. lom an who has bored in?o tho deposit a considerable depth. On withdrawing the auger there was a rash of fetid gas. which was re? nounced to be sulphureted hydrogen, and it readily took Gre from a lighted match and is burning at this writing. Tho auger brought up fossil shells, sharks' teeth, thin plates of oxide of iron, the bones of a malacopterygious Ssh. which clearly indicates the silurian strata, and bones, scales, hair and hoefs, supposed to belong to Ichthyosauri, and prehistoric river horses a?d sea cows. [From Eh rich's Fasiiion Quarterly.] Flashes of Fashion. Basques of moire, in black and in dark colors, in blue, plum, bottle-green and maroon, will be worn with skirts of various kinds. Over-dresses and all draperies arc looped high giving the panier effect around the hips, and thc rooster tail effect, in the back. Among other fashionable pendant ornaments for rooms are quaint, odd shaped little baskets of split bamboo Japanese, of course. Wall papers are now brought out in imitation of tapestries, including even the famous Gobelins, which are admi? rably imitated. Large., very large bonnets arc the most fashionable, bu! small and medium sizes and cottage and turban shapes con? tinue in vogue. Neck kerchiefs of foulard and Surah have lace borders appliqucd on with gold thread chain-s^jteh embroidery, inclosing floral designs. New stockings come in heather mix? tures, in stripes hair-liccd with gold threads, and also plain in the new and fashionable c tors. Lace is used tc an enormous extent in trimming all sorts of winter gar? ments-dresses, wraps, fichus for house wear, basques aud jackets. Buckles, clasps, slides and ail sorts of ornaments in ahaloue or compressed mother-of-pearl, jct, silver and Rhine j crystal, silver, steel and gilt will bc much worn. The new woolen goods, striped with lines of plush, make very handsome accessory paris-culis, collars revers, pockets add bands for plain, self-colored all-wool suits. A fashionable bride is now attended to thc altar by from eight to twelve bridesmaids half of whom are little girls in short dresses, the other half young j ladies in society.
