MISCELLANY. From Si mm's Monthly Magazine. SCENES IN A LIFE. MY FIRST CRUISE-FOUNDED ON FACT. “Sailors are strange creatures!” said the elde ftatlcman abruptly, filling hia glass as he spoke, £d pushing over the bottle to his young companion, r iio imitated his example,—“ usually the most care- , reckless and thoughtless of God’s creatures— vn up children—and coaxed or bollied with the 13 test ease and impunity; yet let a spirit of muti- [•)' dace take possession of a crew, and these ‘jolly *”*’ arc converted into devils incarnate. I well rc- •uuer an incident which impressed this conviction l-pan me, in early life, when I came very near being victim of an outbreak of this kind, more than aenty years ago; and as 1 believe you have never it, I’ll relate to yon the manner in which it ■ippened. In the year 18—, while still a very young man, frit full of recklessness and spirit of wild adventure, J embarked as a passenger on board an American f raiser, bound to the West Indies. At tho time of ivhich I speak, this country was at war with Great Britain; our craft carried several heavy guns and was well, manned, although the Captain, as I soon discovered, was a weak, inefficient man, utterly de void of the moral firmness requisite to keep in check where he would be safe from the dangers lie appre hended.’ Tho blood rusbed to Stanton’s face at this taunt ing speech, but the strict rules of the service for bade a reply which rose to his lips, so muttering to himself, he turned away and repaired to his post of duty. Thinking the time a favorable and for re monstrance, I stepped up to the Captain and ven tured to express to him pretty freely my own opin ion on tho subject. The Captain beard me through without interruption or change of countenance; when 1 had finished, he cooly turned on his heel, whistling softly to himself all the time, and descend ed into Iris cabin, without uttering a word. My blood boiled in my veins at this treatment, and I inwardly promised him a little reckoning for the insult,.but I well knew how idle would be any demonstration then ami there, since of all forms of despotism, none can equal that of one of those petty tyrants on ship board; so with a chafing spirit, I descended to my berth, and flinging myself on my bed, sought relief in sleep from the troubled and angry feelings which oppressed me. I was not allowed to sleep long; I was awakened by-a strange and unusual noise proceeding Ironi the deck above my hood; although the weather was perfectly calm, hurried feet were rapidly passing to and fro over my head; heavy bodies were rolled from ono side of the ship to the other, and a confused din of raised and angry voices reached my -ear. I felt that something was wrong, and, rushing up the companion-way to tho deck, tho cause of tho tumult was revealed to me. Stanton’s forebodings had at length been realized. The crew were in a state of open mutiny; they had seized the guns and ranged them on deck in such a manner as to rake the whole side of the vessel in which their officers were clustered together, and now with hoarse cries, were demanding that their com raile should be given up to them, or they would fire on their officers. Thoso officers (with one exception) sccmod completely panic stricken, the look of vul gar urroganco habitual to tho Captain's lace had giv en placo to an expression of craven fear, and his sub ordinates all seemed to partake of the same feoling with one exception—that one was Stanton; his countenance, though pale, was calm and fixed in stern resolve; his left hand grasped tho throat of tho sailor whose merited punishment had caused this outbreak, and in Iris right lie held a pistol, ready cockotl, holding in awo, by his attitude and aspect, the swarming circle of his foes, who were howling like hafliod blood-hounds around him, gradually draw ing nearer and nearer to him. No other among Iris colleagues showed the least intention of assisting him; they were paralyzed tiy fear, and ho stood alone and unaided among Iris foes. This scene, though taking time for its description, was ail beneath my eye the instant I reached the upper deck, and with tho quickness of thought I understood it all; my resolution was instantly formed. Tom,’ I called to the Steward, ‘ my pistols.’— They were instantly handed up to me; and cocking both, with one in each hand, I stepped up to Stan ton’s sido, determined to stand or fall by him. My action seemed to re-kindie the dormant fury of the crew; it acted like the spark applied to the torpedo. With a wild and savage yell, which canned the blood to curdle in my veins, so similar was it to the howls of infuriated wild beasts—a dozen of the picked men of the crew rushed towards the spot where Stan ton and myself stood. * Now or never,’ said Stanton coolly, and firing his pistol with fetal effect at the foremost assailant, he suddenly hurled the sailor whom he held, full against his advancing comraJes. Propelled by the powerful arm of Stanton, the tallow plunged head long forward, and fell in the very path of his friends, for a moment arresting their progress. Two swar thy ruffians, however,' rushed on. One, unseen by Stanton, rushed up behind, and swinging over his head a heavy boaniing-pike, would have crushod his skull, hod ho not at tho instant receiyed a bullet, from my first pistol, full in the neck; .the weapon dropped from hia hand,—with a groan ho sank down upon the deck, tho hot blood bubbling from'the wound. His comrade stooped as he saw him fall, grasped in both hands a heavy round shot, and hurl ed it full at my head. So sudden was tho action, and so truly was it aimed, that a rapid movement only saved my head from the deadly fiitssilo, which **»*>,'ye.M better givo up at once, or we’ll have to| As bespoke he detached the lamp and flung it come down and take ye both.’ i aztern, then set aU soft, in an opposite direction bom ‘Come on, then,’I shouted, ‘but first confess yoor [ that taken, by the mutineers; and in two days time sins; for, by the Eternal! thp. first step that touches we were tafbin G&udaloupo—and of that ship and turbulent spirit of his. sailors, many of whom . ere old man-of-war's-men. His Lieutenant, (whom I struck my right shoulder, driving me violently back shall call StantonJ was, in every respect, the re- ward, and shattering my left arm, which fell heavily rse of his captain, a resolute, determined man,' to “F “d®; while springing up with a hoarso ehuck- ssing great physical strength and dauntless my enemy rushed upon me. *“— 1 1 Jon rage, admirably fitted to command the respect "d sympathy of the men under bis command, had °t the weak indulgence of the Captain made his 'Act discipline odious to the crew, and reflected on * personal papaUrity. Entertaining a great con- upt for the Captain, I cultivated the acquaintance * Stanton, and as intimacies are of quick growth at at our frail protection above, and the hatches shook aud yielded to their efforts. Our situation was critical. I looked at Stanton; exhausted by excitements and the violent efforts he had made, lie leaned against tho door-way, his man ly chest heaving with irregular and labored breath ing, and his rigid face the picture of despair—the despair of a brave man who does not fear death, but loathes to die without a struggle or hope of ven geance. Wendell,’ he said, ‘ it is all over. We have done all that men can do, and we must submit to our fete. Your generous assistance has only perilled your own safety without saving me, for I would rather have perished in the heat of conflict above, than have been caught thus like a rat in a trap. Oh! it is hitter, bitter.’ And the strong man ground bis teeth in bitter and despairing rage, and strode hasti ly back and forth through the narrow cabin. ‘ But I may save you, my friend!’ he said, suddenly stop ping; ‘ I will offer to deliver up myself as a sacri fice for both. They know they cannot force this stronghold of our’s without loss of life, and they may accept my offer; at least, it is worth a trial. * But suppose they refuse, and claim us both V I replied, laying my hand upon his arm'as he moved np the stairway, ‘ what then ?’ As I spoke, ho paused, and looked back over his shoulder; 1 stood in the doorway of the cabin; within, ou a table, there burnt a lamp, the light from which shone brightly on a small door beyond; a sadden flush passed over the pallid face of Stanton as he turned, and a stern, cruel joy glittered in his eye; he bent down his head, and in a hoarse, low whisper, asked, * Do you see that door?’ ‘I do.’ ‘ Well, there is my guaranty for your safety, or—’ and he paused; then added, with hissing emphasis, 1 a signal vengeance,—it is the powder magazine! With tint lamp and that magazine, I will bring these wolves to terms, or blow them like rockets in tiie airabovo there, ho!’ , As ho finished speaking a ray of hope glanced across my mind; bat I determined to stand or fell with him. Forcing the door of the magazine vio lently open, with the lamp in my hand, I stood upon the threshold ready, at a moment’s warning, to ap ply the spark which would launch so many erring creatures into a dread eternity. Although my po sition was one of a deadly peril, and almost hope less, yet tho high pitch of excitement which my mind had attained, banished all thought of conse quences, and inspired me with a species of reckless daring, such' os I had never felt before. The con sciousness, too, of my power over the crew, gave a dignity to my position; ami it was with this strange feeling of desperate exultation that I occupied my post, almost careless of the result. While Stanton and myself had been conferring below, all had been comparatively quiet above.— Sure of their victims, securely fastened down with no means of escape, the mutineers had calmed their first wild fury down to a sullen determination of having our blood; and the interval had passed in attempting to arrange with the Captain for his own safety and that of his subordinates—the price of which was to be our lives. That feeble dastard, awed and overwhelmed by too strong tide of passion which he wanted the cour age and the energy to stem or to control, knew not what course to pursue; distracted by his duty and his fears, he alternately threatened and besought the mutineers, who sullenly persisted in their demands. .Such was the state of affairs above, when the voice of Stanton from below, again woke the slumbering passions of the men into active exercise, and with a sin.-.timer 13 rush they sprang towards the direction o; uic sound. At the same instant the hatches were flung violently open from within; the mutineers rushed savagely on to secure their prey, but paused it the opening and recoiled in blank dismay, stunned and confoundod; and well might they pause, for what spectacle can be more startling than that of two desperate men it bay, determined to sell their lives at the cost of their assailants. The rude sailors,, so clamorous bat a moment be fore, were awed into silence, as they gazed down upon their intended victims. Stanton stood fn the doorway) sheltered by the projecting frame work; in his hands he held'a heavy muricet, leveled upon the entrance, bis fixed features and glaring eye warning with certain death the first who descended to capture us. Farther back, but still in view of the upper door, I had taken my stand, leaning against the inner door, the lamp in my hand—my shattered arm and blood-stained dress making me a wild and haggard spectacle, worked np by the excitement of the occasion almost to a pitch of frenzy. There wo stood, and the passage above was dark ened by the forms of the mutineers;—Stanton spoke in a low, deep tone, which betokened his desperate resolve.— ‘ Men,’ he said, * I am content to yield up to you my life without resistance, but on ooe condition— .1 • »_ i;r., 1... — .. His hand was al ready at my throat, when, thrusting my pistol against his chest, I fired;—his hand relearned its grasp, ami staggering against the ship’s side, he lost his bal ance, rolled heavily over the bulwarks, and fell into the jolly-boat which lay beneath. These stirring events mil passed with a rapidity that defies description. From my arrival on deck a few days served to m»k»» us fiist Mends. In j to the fell of my last assailant, was an intewal only conversations with me, Stanton frequently re-' of a few seconds; and,as he fell, Stanton spring- tied the injudicious licene allowed by the Cap- ing backward, muttered in a quick, hoarse whisper, » to the sailors, and predicted that evil would' ‘ To the cabinthen sprang down the steps that led of it; but with the sangniy. ypnfidfyyi rf p»y below,—I followed, drawing down the hatches after »nd character, I laughed at hia forebodings, me.

Let me atone for both.' He was answered by a howl of fury, and a voice from above shouted forth—‘Down am) take them this floor, 1 fling this blazing lamp into the middle of the powder magazine,—and may God show to your souls more mercy Ilian you have shown us here!’ As I shouted forth these words, the crowd recoiled from the door-way, and I could hear the shuffling of rapid feet as the men retreated from the dangerous neighborhood. Then followed an eager consulta tion among the men, of which we could catch the sound, but not the senso, during which.they moved off to the oilier part of tho vessel. This was follow ed by sounds indicating great activity on deck—the trampling of feet, rattling of ropes, and, finally, a hail through tho speaking trumpet, the purport of which we could not catch. ‘ They are signalling for the prize ship,’ aaid Stan ton suddenly, as the hatches were pushed down and closed from above; ‘their object is to secure us here and desert the ship, leaving us here to perish; but we shall foil them yet !* Even as be spoke, the dull, heavy stroke of a hammer upon the hatches, confirmed his suspicions, and roused us again to exertion. . ‘What, ho! above!’shouted Stanton. There was no reply, but the steady sound of the hammering went on, and we could feel the increased velocity with which our ship dashed through the water. Again we hailed together, but with no better success. ‘One effort more,’ said Stanton; and twinging himself npon the table, he struck with tho butt of his musket against the thick glass which admitted light into tiie cabin from above. The shattered fragments fell upon the floor, leaving a small apar- ture, through which Stanton shouted these words— Open tiie hatches, or we blow up tho ship!* A quick trampling followed this threatening speech, and tiie hatches were again thrown open, when Stanton added—‘ The moment .tiie prize ship is brought alongside, or tiie life-boots put off from this ship we carry out our threat. You cannot deceive us; and if we must perish, it shall not lie alone!’ ,, Eight days had passed. Slowly and wearily had they dragged on, for Stanton and myself were still prisoners tallow, but prisoners who held in their hands the lives of their jailors. During that time no direct attempt had been made to capture us, though wo could occasionally catch a glimpse of a grim fece peering down upon us through the broken glass, in tiie hope of catching us off our guard; but day aud night we kept alternate watch, and foiled our vindictive enemies. For a time they seemed to cherish tho hope that our patience might fail us, or starvation drive us to terms; but, fortunately, we had discovered some provisions stowed away by tho Steward for safe keeping, and thus escaped that danger. But still our situation was terribly trying to us both, living in a constant state of feverish ox- citemcnt, our* senses continually strained to tlicir utmost pitch, filled with vague apprehensions uf dan ger, but ignorant from what quarter, or in what form, it would assail ns; onr slumber snatched in broken and fitful periods of a few lioura each—ono watching while the other slept, and that sleep but a distorted reflection of our waking perils. We drift ed on wo knew not whither, buried olive, yet con scious of our power in the fears of onr enemies, our ouly safety. Tho constant excitement at length be gan to produce a visible effect both on our minds and bodies—more strikingly shewn on Stanton than on myself. The change in my own appearance, of course, I could not remark, but I could trace the ravages of that trying week on my companion, with painful distinctness. His calm, stem fece, had grown sharp and eager, the features pinched and contracted; the expression of his eye was dull and stony, flashing out occasionally a wild and troubled glare; he would pace for boars tho narrow limits without uttering a word; and when he slept he mut tered incessantly in his troubled slumber. At times there came into his eye an express km that curdled my blood—tho demoniac glare of incipient madness, when the light of soul ia darkened, and through the eye of. man looks forth, the spirit or an evil demon. It was the eighth day, and Stanton and myself sat by the table, the eyes of both rested on the burning lamp. Neither spoke, but desperate thoughts were striving in tho minds of both. Our eyes inot; we understood each other; the die was cast; our desporate resolve was taken, and we were ready to dio. ‘ My poor wife,’ said Stanton; it was the first al lusion he bad made to her, and a tear trembled in his eye. * No weakness,’ bo muttered, 1 but signal vengeance!’ and he picked np the lamp and moved towards the magaziue. Ono instant more, and we would all' have been strewed liko drift weed on the surbee of the deep. I commended my soul to God, and closed my eyes for tiie catastrbpho, when a voice from above arrested Stanton’s steps. It was the Boatswain who spoke, and now proposed a par ley. ' Tn temporary command of the rebellious crow, he had kept a watch upon us, had seen Stanton’s desperate design, and.in great alarm called in time to arrest hia purpose, lie now proposed, in behalf of the crew, that we should be liberated on coqdi- tion that wo would leave the abip and go on boonl the prize, which would bo called -alongside for the purpose. To this we demurred, demanding that a boat should be given, us to go to her, while the whole crew, ranging on the side of the ship, where there were np guns, should allow us free ogjresn. Our terms were acceded to, and with,our pistols cocked in our hands, we left the ship, greeted by a groan of baffled hale from the mutineers, who were all ranged 00 decks We were commanded, on reaching the P"*®, to hang out a light, and keep in oompeny witjt the Captain to this day I havo never heard.’! The narrator paused—drew a long breath—filled his gloss again—tossed it off—and gazed abstract edly at tho opposite wall. "But, Stanton,”asked his companion,? what won hit final fete 1" : , He is now a distinguished officer in tho aei-; vice I” “And the mutineers?” “Two years ago l was in Baltimore, whiling away a few idle days. As I was strolling through the streets, my eye fell upoq a face which seemed familiar to me, though I could not recall it. I saw the recognition was mutual, and stopped abort— The sailor (for be was one) did so likewise; and, without a word, slipping down his brood shirt collar, - laid his finger an a broad, livid scar, which traversed his nock, apparently long since healed, but which once must have been a deep and dangerous wound. I recognized my mutineer, and slipping oat of my pocket a stiver piece, I dropped it in his hand. “God bless your Honor,” said the delighted sailor, “ I’ll drink your health.” “And the fellow whom I knocked peer into tho jolly-boat;—Jack, did be get over it?” “He’ll help me drink yoor Hanot’s health this blessed night,” was the reply; and, as if fearful of further question, my new friend and old enemy turned a comer and vanished from my sight, leaving me to ponder on the strange blending of the tragic and tiie farcical in tho varied web of onr strange lives. t A, The speaker paused and leaned his head open his hand, plonged in deep thought His compan ion did not venture to disturb his meditations, but sipped his wine in silence, and thought of the scenes he hod just heard so earnestly described. A smoth ered moaning sound from his friend, caused him quickly to turn his head and ask the cause. He re ceived no reply. His curiosity was excited; he rose and approached him, while the sobbing sound increased. He bent down his head, and perceived, that—Mr. Wendell had, for the last five minutes, been sound asleep. Q. Aaiunuah, {Ua.) REMARKABLE DISCOVERY-ELECTRICITY AND AGRICULTURE. The element which now promises to be turned to tiie increased use of man in the most extraordinary way is electricity. Already wefind communications made, and conversations sustained, between parties fifty miles apart, with nearly as much rapidity as could be performed by any system of symbols in tho saino room. By means of the electric Telegraph London is brought into instantaneous proximity with . Windsor, Southampton and other places, and before long there is every reason to expect that communi cations may be made between all the important parts of the country in a few seconds. We have al ready seen some extraordinaiy examples of the ef fects of this rapid communication, not the least stri king of which was the capture of the late unhappy ■nan Tan-ell. On the other hand, we now hear of games of chess and whist being sustained and car ried on at distances of fifty or sixty miles, as if the parties were all in the same room. Hitherto it has been thought that a man having the start for any ob ject by railway was secure from pursuit, but now this new agent will arrest his progress or anticipate his arrival at any point with more ease than a man on the fleetest horse could overtake another on foot. But of all the uses to which this new and marvel lous agent has been applied, none promises such remarkable results as to agriculture. It is a princi ple which has been long admitted and understood, that electricity had a considerable effect on vegeta tion, bnt it has not been till now that any practical application of that aid has been attempted. Of late many experiments havo been made, in n manner, too, which affords means of jodging, not only of tho comparative result but comparative cost. And we are bound to say that they are such, that we look upon this new agent, as one likely, before long, to prtiduce as greats revolution in agriculture as the inventions of the steam-engine or thespinning-jenny have done in manufactures. We have before ns the result of one experiment on a considerable scale, which, we think, cannot but prove highly interesting to onr readers, it took place in the north of Scotland. A portion of a field of barley, to which the electric application was made, produced last year at the rate of thirteen quarters and a half to the acre, while tho surrounding land, similarly treated in other respects, produced the usual quanty of five to six quarters to the acre. The following is a detail of the very sim ple mode in which the electric fluid is collected ahd.. applied to influence the fend. A field b divided into oblong squares, 76 yards long and 40 yards'wide, and containing, therefore, just ooe acre each. Tho following 1* a plan of such square:— • ... A G B ' uoBtn.
