In a long interview, yester day, Mr. Saville detailed all the fearful particulars, and . we give the frightful story in his own words. TIIE FIRST OFPICEtfS NARRATIVE. The American ship Golden Hind, Captain Benjamin F. Robbins, left New York on the 12th of February, o nfsv voyago to San Francisco. When in a latitude of St. Catherines wo ex perienced a series of heavy westerly gibs, which continued for nearly a month with treat violence. On the 1 Ah jTfprtne last, when on the west side if jPttfcgonia/’und at the Pacific cntruncA to flic Straits of Magellan, the pintals and gudgeons of the rud der guvs way and it floated off. Three days were consumed in constructing a temporary one of spars. It lasted about a week, hut in another heavy gale this was aiso carried away, and we drifted at the mercy of the winds Almost the entire month of July was sjient in pulling in what we be lieved to be the direction to Sandy Point. The only human beings we in a canoe. They treated ut cordially, met were an Iudian and tw* squaws exchanged u dnek forasmall'tjuanit/ of tobacco, but they had no other provisions.. We had -secured from the ship two rijlOe, and one of the crew shot a duck, but the powder became wet, and our weapons were useless. A dead duck found among the rocks, whs also secured anil eaten, but with the exception of the shell-fish, this was the only "food we secured. HUNGER. • In (flatter put of July the weather became * fearfully tempestuous, and after several days of fruitless buffeting, we went into our las't^oucanipmeut. It was a terribly bleak and desolate spot, shut out from the sea by high cliffs, and filled with low stunted trees. We found, however, a few roots, some berries, and, strange to say, a little celery, and, not knowing whether the vegetables were poisonous or not, each man partook ravenously of whatever he could find. The high tides preven ted our securing any shell fish, and the few seals we saw were two timid to capture, but we secured water in abundance from the streams running down the mountain. DEATH. Here the men became seriously ill. Their legs were swollen to frightful proportions, but few could wear their boots, and a majority wandered about with their feet tied up in old cloth and pieces of canvas. Some, unable to walk at all, crawled about on their hands and knees. At length a man named White, a 'seaman, became delirious and shortly nfterward died. The ground was so On the second dav after this last dis-1 1,ar % frozen thilt lt was impossible to aster, the Golden Hind. | a grave, so we carried the body a „ short distance fram the tents and laid . ’ | lt in the hushes, ono forward and one aft on the west- The next one attacked was a young era coast of Patagonia.

The s jven . o vjoqji th-p evening lowered A GHOST STORY. - One ‘fine - autumn evening, about forty, years ago, I was traveling ot' snugwayi might spend the night, when a sudden thunder storm' came on. My horse, terrified by the lightning, fairly took the bridle' between his teeth, and star ted With nje a$ full gallop through the lanes'and cross-roads, until at length I managed to pull him up near the door of ft neat looking country inn. “ Well,” thought I, “ there was wit in your madness, old boy, since it brought ps to this comfbrtabje refuge.” After alighting, I -cave him in charge to the svout farmer’s boy who acted as hostler. The inn kitchen, which was also his guest room, was large, clean, neat and eomfbrtable; very much like the pleasant hostelry described by Isaac Walton. There were several travelers already in the room—proba bly, like myself, driven there for shel ter —aud they were all warming them selves by the blazing fire while waiting for suppar. 1 joined the party. Pres ently lieing summoned by the hostess, we all sat down, twelve in number, to a smokin'; repast of bacon and A fearful moment of silence ensued, and then the student replied, but in an altered tone: j! “ I am not.” With strange and frantic gesture the merchant sang: “ And the phantom said, ‘ Behold I come • ■ from niy grave in the sea, Link, thy haud in mine, thou shalt go back with me.’” ,Now, what happens?” “ He comes—he is near me- -he reaches out his arms—he will liave me! Help! -Save me ?” “Are you afraid now ?” asked the merchant, in a mocking voice.; piercing cry. and then a stifled groan- was the only reply to this terri ble question. “ Help that rash youth 1” said the merchant, bitterly. “ I have, I think, won his wager; but it is sufficient for me to have given him a lesson. Let him keep his money aud be wiser in the future.” He walked away rapidly. We opened the door of the summer house, and found the student in convulsions. A paper signed with the name of “ Francis Villiers” was on the table. As soon as the student’s senses were restored, he asked vehemently where was the sorcerer who had subjected etc. i Him to such a terrrible ordeal—lie 1 he conversation naturally fell on WO uld kill him! He sought him the mishaps occasioned by the storm,! throughout the inn in vain; then, with of which every one seemed to have had the speed of a mad man, he dashed off .'tjsiJ hr.it i-'ie t axt» .knit •><:} iailJ Iiovnilep 7ti*i‘vo»p vie jitanv: -u! of .Rv-.Tunob 1o ic/iff of Jvuj-n'lliw wMiuiawI 1 Tpcimhul sdl u liswhi wn • ©Jl , io»£l ilw <■> « tr i ; nmJ-.oilw jonJlim fttufeyavn^adi ;:•> Uiw r.-.*s(aig!#k * s-anowd JusoiUll vm: n« * 0ff-ni.Jj nJuiij Aidj rSWer*i*: : ;'■*.

One had been thrown oTliis horse; anotlicr, driving in his gig, had been upset in a muddy dyke; all had got a thorough wetting, and across the fields in pursuit of him. Of course, after waiting a while for the return of the student with our stake-money, it gradually dawned upon agreed unanimously that it was dread- us t hat the' whole thing' was a pre-ar- ful weather a regular witch s Sabbath, ranged swindle. The two rascals car away. In (lie hurry of departure nearly all of our nautical instru ments were left on hoard, and, in fact, many articles absolutely necessary. There were three boats lowered, the tirst under the command of Captain Kobins, the second commando..! by my- •-clf, ainl the third in charge of Mr. Wehh, the second mate. Each con tains 1 seven men. Mr. Webb assert ing that he knew the situation better Ilian we did, parted company almost immediately, and it being then quite dark, we lay under the lee of the land carpenter, a man from Liverpool, was the next victim ; then we lost Charley, a German seaman, and finally another sailor called Frank. All of them died within ten days of each other, anti all were lain side lie side out in the hushes, As each one left us, we took his clothes to keep the living ones warm, but during all the-;e days not one of ns had a mouthful of food. THE BANQUET ON HUMAN FRESH. At Ibngth the steward taking one of the men out with him into the i bushes, returned with slices of meat, until morning.

The next morning the last vestige of the Golden Hind had disappeared, and a search, which- continued two days, was then made for the other boat, hut no trace of her could he seen. Wc tasted something like beef, hut; it makes me shudder now to think of it. A SHE-DEVIL AT PITTSBURG. have hang since this concluded that she j ^ r - au ,J ^rs.

WITHOUT A COM 1 *ASS. A few days after we left the wreck the captain’s boat was swamped, and we lost our compass, the only instru ment wo had, and a quantity of the pro visions. An attempt was made to reach Sandy Point, a Chilian convict settlement, and the coaling station of f ho Pacific mail steamers, and about iwo'-tlnrds the way through the straits of Magellan, but our course could only bo determined by the sun and stars. THE DREARY ASPECT. It wus.then mid winter, the moun tains along the coast were covered with snow and ice, and tiie mercury must have been several degrees below zero. V. o pulled close to the laud, working all night in fair weather, and during a heavy-Wow landing and going into camp. There wore plenty of scrub trees alon" the coast, and as we were pro vided with two hatchets aud a good supply of matches, a fire was always to he procured. During these visits we secared quite a supply of shell fish resembling;ihe muscle, but we found that this diet brought on constipation, ami the entirepayty became unwell.

One day Idarcccived a message from Mrs. X., requesting her to call at her house, as she (Mrs. X.) had a letter from the county for her. In the afternoon Ida dress herself in her best clothes, and went to Mrs. X’s house, where she was met at the door by the woman, who kissed her, inquired par ticularly about thc state of her health, and placed her in the most comfortable chair in the room, an armed rocking- chair. Mrs. X. offered the girl refreshment, which she declined, with a request for a glass of water. This was at once brought by the amiable hostess, who herself took a drink. The woman then went into an adjoining room, from which she speedily returned with a strong cord or rope, arranged in the form of a noose. Smiling and talk ing pleasantly all the time, she stymied behind her visitor, and dropping i he noose over her head and arms, with a sudden jerk, she soon bound the young girl helpless to the chair. “ Now ,” said the woman, “you shall see hov,-1 will avenge myself;” whereupon, from the table drawer she took a pair of shears, a large knife and a revolver, all of which implements she spread upon the table before her victim, ay this time ready to faint with terror. The tormentor’s next 'step was to cut off the girl’s hair a3 close as possible to the skin, leaving only a single hand ful on the top of the head, for the pur pose as sho explained, of facilitating the subsequent operation of scalping. The girl screamed and cried for help as loudly as she could, but the house stands in a lonely place, and no deliv erer appeared After cutting off the hair, Mrs. X. brought a looking gloss, that Ida might see the change produced iu her appearance. As the girl begged her release, saying that she was freezing, she was told, tion of mocking epithets, that she would be warm enough before she got away. Mrs. X. then put thc poker in the stove, and while calmly waiting lor it to become red-hot, she told her victim what she intended to do wir.h it “ First, I will burn your eyes out,” etc., etc. And she really begun to execute her threats, but when she was trying to blind the girl, the latter bv a superhuman effort, seized the glowing poker and for a while arrest ed the monster in the perpetration of her crime. This interruption made it necessary to reheat the poker, and in the meantime, the unlooked-for return of the husband was all that saved the “ Witches and ghosts prefer for their Sabbaths a tine moonlight to such weather as this !” This was uttered in a solemn tone, and witli a strong emphasis, by one of the company.. He was a tall, dark looking man, aud I laid set him down ia my own mind as merchant or ped dler. My next neighbor was a gay, well looking, fashionably dressed young man, who bursting into a peai of laughter, said: “You must be well acquainted with the customs of ghosts, to tell us that they dislike getting wet or muddy.” The first speaker, giving him a dark, fierce look, said: “ Young man, speak not so lightly of things beyond your comprehension.” “ Do you mean to imply that there are such things ns ghosts?” “ Perhaps you might lie convinced of the fact, if you had the courage to iook at them.” The' young man stood up, flashed with anger; hut presently resuming his seat, he said calmly: “ That taunt should cost you dear, if it was not such a foolish one ?” “ A foolish one!” exclaimed the merchant, throwing on the table a heavy leathern purse. “There arc fifty guineas. 1 am content to lose them, if, before the hour is ended, I do not succeed in showing you, who are so obstinately prejudiced, the form of any of your deceased friends, and if, after you have recognized him, you will allow him to kiss your lips.” We all looked at each other, hut my young neighhor in the same mock ing manuer, replied: “ You will do that will you?” “Yes,” said thc other; “I will take those fifty guiucas on condition ti nt you will pay a similar sum if you lose.” After a short time the young man said, gaily: “ Fifty guineas, ray worthy sorcerer, are more than a poor college sizer ever possessed, but there are five, which, if you are satisfied, I shall be willing to wager.” The other took up his purse, saying in a contemptuous tone: Young gentleman, you wish to draw back:” “ I draw back ;” exclaiinod the stu dent. “ Well, if I had fifty guineasyou should sec whether I wish, to draw back!” ’ — “Here,” said I, “ are four guineas which I will take on your wager.” * No sooner had I made this proposi tion than the rest of the company, at tracted by the singularity o: the affair came forward today down their money, and in a minute or two the fifty guineas were subscribed. The mer chant appeared so sure of winning that he placed all the stake in the stu dent’s hands and prepared for his ex periment. We selected for the pur pose a small summer house in the gar den, perfectly deserted, and having no means of exit but a window and a door, which wc carefully fastened, af ter placing the young man within. We put writing materials on a small table in the summer house, and took away the candies. We remained out- side'with the peddler among us. In a low solemn voice he began to cl >ant the following lines: ried off our guineas, after having act d a farce, which wc like ninnies believed to be real. I have not invested any money in ghost stock siucc then. BOILED TO DEATH. One of these accidents so horrible iu their details as to sicken the sensi bilities of thc reader occurred at the Caledonia Paper Mills, at the foot of Market street, late Saturday afternoon. At about thiee o’clock, Joshua Cum mins, night watchman of the works, came to the building in an intoxicated condition, and the employees, fearful that he would meet with a mishap of some kind, if allowed to remain in that state, put him out and started him to ward home, corner of Blackford and North streets. Nothing more wrs seen of him until about twenty min utes past four, when the workmen in the tub house—four or five negroes— were startled bysi cry thnt almost froze the blood in their veins. Well they knew what it meant—some un fortunate had fallen into one of the vats used for steaming the straw be fore reducing it to pulp. Proceeding n the direction of theory, they discov ered Cummins in vat four, stri\i-ig to obtain a hoid upon the edge of the staves and pull himself put. Thc vat is ten feet deep, and at that time con tained two feet of “ mash and two feet of water, the whole mass being boiling hot.

A Penitentiary Romance—I: - nocent Incest.—There is now in the State Penitentiary at Fort Madison, an aged couple who are serving out a term for the crime of incest, they being brother and sister. The story is this: At the age of twelve years, the male left his father’s house to seek his for tune and no more return. He, in time, came West, grew to manhood and married, raised a family of child ren. and finally his wife died. His sister grew to womanhood, was mar ried, and with her husband came West, and to Iowa. Her husband died, and in time she received an offer of marriage from a man who was a widower. She accepted the offer and they were married. Her husband was wealthy, and after a time one of his sons wished to have the father give him some property, but the father re fused to accede to his demands. The son one day, while looking over the family record of the stepmother, which had been laid aside and forgotton, dis- t nvered that there was a kindship be- ween the families, and a further in vestigation proved that his father and stepmother were own brother and sis ter. To avenge himself for his fath er’s refusal to give him the bulk of his operty, he brought suit against them _ jth for incest. They were tried and convicted and sent to the penitentiary for one year. They are both over sixty years of age, and as innocent of intent to commit crime as the new-born babe.—Chicago Journal, GREAT T A FAILING SFECIFIC fi*r Livv.il Complaint and the painful offspring thereof, to-wit: DYSPEPSIA, CONSTIPATION, Jaundice, Dillious attacks, SICK HEADACHE, Colic, Depression of Spirits, SOUR STOMACH, Heart Burn, Aq., Ac.

The tap roots run through thc middle row, the smaller roots runs out into each of the other two distributes, nnd hence one bale to the acre is made: In our judgment, it is the best pUu iu use.
