The Extraordinary Adrentnres of a Ship wrecked Crew in the South Shetland Islands. The Five Sailors of the Frank lin Abandoned to Their Fate. DISCOVERY OF KINS, THE SOLE SURVIVOR. His Solitary Life in the Antarctic Seas* From the New York Herald. |_ By the arrival of the schooner Nile, at New London, from her ernise to the South Shet land Islands, situated in the Antartic regions, where she has been engaged in the capture of seals for the English market, we are placed in possession of the following facts, relating how live of the crew of the vessel FraDklin passed the winter oil one of these ice-bound isles, and how only one of them survives to tell the story of their terrible sufferings. The name of the survivor is James A. King, a boat steerer, aged thirty-four years, a native of this city, where his wife, sister and a brother employed in the Fire Department are now living. He himself is expected here within a few weeks, having remained behind at Per “We managed to live nyon pelican flesh and some biscuits which had been left behind by a boat’s crew. We made clothes as well as we could ont of seal skins. The cold was intense in spite of the stove, in which we barned seal blubber. We managed to lose ac count of time during the year which we have passed here, and knew that Summer had come again by its being warm. Our baling enp from our boat was very useful. DESERTED BY HIS C OMPANIONS. About a fortnight ago, as nearly as I can make out,” said King, “three of my mates took the boat and said they were going back to Window Island. One of onr original num ber of five I had forgotten to say, a Portugese from the Cape de Verde Islands, had died from weakness and frostbites several months back and we buried him in the snow near the sea. The three survivors included Townsend, i the third mate, who was a native of Shinne- ; cock, Long Island, and was the head of the movement in breaking up our hut establish- ; j ment. I remonstrated with him and told ; i him it would be foolishness to leave after un- ! dergoing such privations together, and that ' | we had better fight it cut to the end. I also j stated that if they left me I should be with- ! out auy fire, as the mate had the only fiint and steel among the party, and we had no matches. THREE OF THE PABTY LOST IN THE BREAKERS. However, they left, and I helped them to launch their boat. I don’t know what has happened to them. Captain Beddingdon, the present command er of the Franklin, which went ont again last year from New London, reported subsequent ly that a sailor’s coat and a portion of the boat in which the three men embarked was found on the beach near Cape Sheriff, about thirty miles distant from the hut in which the men had passed their dreary year, and it is therefore to be concluded that the men were MINING HOLOCAUST!

In the year 1871 the schooner Franklin, Captain Holmes, left New London as one of the pioneer vessels from that port to engage in the seal fishery at the South Shetland Isl ands, which are situated at about ten days’ sail to the southward of Cape Horn, in lati tude C4. After an uneventful voyage of four i months the vessel arrived at its destination. The following day the captain ordered a j MRS boat’s crew of five men, under the orders of James A. King, boat steerer, to proceed to the shore and commence killing seals at Win dow Island, off which place the vessel was anchored. In the boat were placed provisions for seven days and a big club for each of the ‘•Behind the Scenes.’ CAUDLE IN BOWLING GREEN—A ’ GETS A OURTA1N LECTURE.

GEORG Call for us there.” The rich booty of seal skins was left on the beach, and the party de parted for the island, where its members safe ly arrived and commenced operations. Meanwhile the Franklin returned from a cruise to Livingstone Island, (where it had made a large haul of seals) to Window Island, expecting to find her five men there, take them on board and sail for home. A boat was accordingly sent ashore to bring them on board, but, of course, they were invisible; but after traveling a considerable distance along the rugged shore tbe pile of seal skins was discovered by the crew, and the notice written by King that the party had left the island. By this time the weather was becom ing boisterous and cold, and it was found im possible to take all the sealskins on board ship. They were, consequently, abandoned, and the Franklin proceeded to St George's Island in quest of the missing m-n, who, the Captain judged, if not relieved, would soon perish. For several days the vessel cruised in tbe vicinity of the island, the Captain con stantly studying it with his glass, but in vain, to see if he could perceive any sign of human life. The group of islands is totally unin habited, and it is only from the middle of January until the middle of March that tbe so-called summer reigns. Nothing could be seen of tbe boat or of the men, but in spite of this guns were fired con stantly, fog horns were blown, and at night rockets were sent up; but no response of any kind cams from the shore, and the Captain of the Franklin, seeing the futility of his efforts was forced to abandon the men to their fate, and sailed for home.

Halifax, N. S., May 13, 1873. Nova Scotia, which but a month ago fur nished to the world the most appalling ship wreck of the century, to-day contributes another horror, which, if far less appalling, is regarded here as a terrible one, and creates a doubt as to the safety of the numerous coal mines which form the most important indus try of the province. The village of Westville, in the county of Pictou, 103 miles from Hali fax, is one of the most EXTENSIVE MINING SETTLEMENTS in the province. Apart from the numerous prospecting operations continually in pro gress, there are three large collieries in full operation, exporting large quantities of coal. Navigation having recently opened, and busi ness becoming active, the workmen in most of the collieries demanded increased wages, and several strikes occurred. One of the larg est mines, called the Drummond Colliery, owned by tbe Intercolonial Coal Company of Montreal, has, in consequenco been closed up for some days. Yesterday the difficulty was arranged, and to-day the men went to work again. THE FIRST EXPLOSION. At half-past eleven this morniDg a shot in the coal set fire to the slope, and half an hour atferwards a fearful explosion took place, caused by the accumulation of gas during the time the miDe was closed. About two o’clock a second and more terrible explosion occur red. coming up the slope air shaft, an old trial shaft, with terrible force, and, it is be- leived, killing nearly every one in the mine. It is impossible to give the precise number who were below. A GREAT NUMBER IN THE MINE. It is variously estimated at from forty to one hundred, including men and boys. Soon after the first explosion, cries were heard at the foot of the air shaft. Men were immedi ately lowered with ropes, and four of those below brought up. TWO MEN BLOWN TO PIECES. Two men were going down the air shaft to render assistance when the second explosion occurred, and they were blown to pieces. All the men in the neighboring mines turned out to assist, and firemen came from the neigh boring town of New Glasgow. NO WATER TO PUT OUT THE FIRE. There was such a small supply of water, however, that little could be done to quench the fire. There is no hope of saving any of those now below, as all escape was cut off by the explosion. At 10 o’clock to-night the fire was still i$g- ing fiercely, immense volumes of flame and dense masses of smoke were pouring out of all the openings, and threatening to destroy all the surface buildings. THE MANAGER AND FOREMAN DOWN THE MINE James Dunn, the general manager, and Richardson, the underground foreman, are amoDg the lost. Many of the lost are married men with fam ilies. The scene above gTonnd is most heart rending. The wives and relatives of the miners are running about crying piteously, and begging the men to save their loved ones. At latest accounts it was believed that the entire work will be completely de- stroved. M ^HOORE’S 80UTHERN BUSINESS UNIVERSITY, corner Broad and Alabama street*, Atlanta, Ga.

IN AUGUST LAST YEAR a Xew London sailing fleet left for the South Shetland Islands, and it was mutually agreed that the captains of the vessels should do all in their power to discover what had become of the five lost men. When the bark Nile, commanded by Captain Williams, came to an anchorage off Fotterss’ Cove, St George’s Island, the Captain and a number of his men went ashore to see what had happened to the men. The Captain expected, owing to tbe full cold of this region of perpetual snow and ice, that none of them would be alive. KING DISCOVERED IN A HUT. Walking along the beach for some distance the exploring party were astonished to find a small wooden hut, from which projected a stovepipe, situated at about two ships’ lengths from tbe shore. The door waa poshed open, and in a comer of the hat, a man with long, red beard and matted hair, was found fa*>t asleep. His clothing consisted of sealskins. On his feet, for a substitute for shoes, were “pengml sandals,” made by removing the body of tb« animal and using the skin and feathers of the beast THE STORY OT KING'S DELIVERANCE. James Randall, a boat steerer of the Nile, who was in this city yesterday, at the Whale man’s Headquarters, a shipping office situated on South street, made the following statement to a Herald reporter and Captain Morris, the proprietor of tne place: I was among the first who discovered King’s hat. It was made of boards, feathered and grooved; placed there by the vessel Francis Allen, in case it might be needed to erect the hut for ihe sailors who might be detained ashore during the sealing seaaou. The boards and a stove were found by the five men, and they succeeded, after considerable difficulty, in getting all in place. Well, we woke up King, who was no glad to see us that ho could hardly speak. He had been without a tire for several days, and was in a somewhat benumed condition. This is wjiat King told more !' Well, sir, do you stay at home a few nights and try it. Perhaps the fretting would stop. Out e-v-e-r-y night because I fret you so. What’s that sir ? ‘You know ladies who ain’t always scolding their husbands !* You do, do you ? How come you to know them ? Wbat business had you to kDow them ? What right have you to know whether other women fret or not ? That’s always the way. Y’ou men think that all the other women are saints but your wives. Oh, yes—saints— s a-i-n-t-s. I'll have you to know, sir, that there isn’t a woman in this town that’s any more of a saint than I am. I know them all, sir—a h-e-a p better than you do. You see the sugar and honey side of them, and they— only—see—the—honey— and —sugar—side— of—yon. Now, sir, I juat want yon to know that if yon don’t stay at home more than you do, I’ll leave these children to get burnt up, and I’ll go out e-v-e-r-y night When a poor woman gets desperate, why, sir, she is—des perate, that's all Among numerous other laws of a commen dable nature, the Legislature of Michigan has enacted that, hereafter, druggists or doctors who fail to write or print upon the label of each bottle or paper containing poison, the most easily obtainable antidote to the same, shall be subject to a very severe penalty. The object is to prevent the “excitement” which always occurs when some member of a family has “accidentally” swallowed a poisonous compound intended to destroy rats and mice, by providing a remedy that can be procured from the nearest druggist, without having to lose time in hunting op a doctor to make an examination and write a prescription—a slow and tedious'process.as nearly everybody knows who has had experience of it. The Michigan idea of prevention is, perhaps, not as thor ough ss it might be. It is practical, however, and, there is little doubt, will be found to work well.

In a note accompanying the following bright little lyric, the sender remarks: “I take the liberty of inclosing to you a copy oi some verses, written, as I have reason to sup pose, by a private in the Southern ranks dur ing the late war, having noticed the repro duction iu tbe Social Studies, recently of a somewhat similar composition. I caunot say who the author was, nor to what arm of the service he belonged, but remember copying the lines in a pocket diary—taking them down from tbe dictaiion of a fellow-soldier, now the Episcopal clergyman at Culpepper Court house, Va., during the time when the ladies were making us all kinds of garments, and contributing all in their power—if even but their affectionate remembrances—to ‘carry on the war.’” Whether their writer was Northern or Southern, the verses are worth revival: In the bravo old days when the steel-clad youth Rode forth to the cUsh of war, He carried a pledge of his lady’s truth In his journey near and far; Iu the battle’s brunt, with hia lance in rest, His thought was a prayer for her Who had twined her glove in his helmet crest, And buckled bis knightly spur. That courtly age has passed, I ween, And the knight and nis lady are dust: The helmet has lost its silver sheen. And the corselet is red with rust; But the soldier’s heart can with love still barn, And the fair still pray for the brave; Bright eyes shall beam fer the victor’s return, Or tueir tears be the dew of his grave. Though she binds not tbe spur on his manly heel. Nor twines on his helmet her glove, Yet her soul is as true as his own true steel, And she sends to the soldier her love; And oh, that love is a talisman bright, A warrior’s heart to inspire, To nerve his strong arm in the shock of the fight, Aud to brighten bis bivouac fire. The most accommodating man we ever saw says the Danbury News, was he who was the captain of a steamship which plied between New York and Port Royal during the war. One day a soldier lost his cap overboard, and went to the captain about it. The old gentle man said it was impossible to stop the vessel to recover it, but be kindly offered to make a mark on the rail where it weut overboard, and get it when he came back. We saw him make the mark ourselves, and well remember that in all that motley crowd there was not a single dry eye. » vision Dealers, Alabama street. syth street, near W. k A. R. R. J j.
