A Honor of Use Sen Death bv Starvation of si Ship's Company- The San Francisco (California! Alta California newspaper reports that the steamer Moses Taylor, on her last trip from that city to Honolulu, fell in with and hoarded the wreck of the brig Slice nos, then one hundred and twenty days out from San Francisco. The report says: ‘ The sea being rough, the brig lurch ed heavily, and the boat approached her with some difficulty. M e was hoarded, i however, by the third officer and a sea | man from the steamer, who immediately (went aloft into the foretop, and finding ■■6 one, went into the forecastle, where they discovered a weak, emaciated man, who exclaimed, as he saw them. ‘Great God Almighty, am I saved?’ He was lifted into the boat, and t iken to f«e steamer, the only articles brought with him being a small canvas bag contain-j i ing a nautical almanac ami a vial cnclo sing a sheet of paper, with the date of j the wreck and the nanu sot tho crew j and passengers. The survivor was! Captain Luder llopken. The brig was caught in a cyclone on the night of July 3, the same date of the solar eclipse, and was thrown on her beam ends. No time was allowed to save any provisions or clothing Irotn the cabin, and the crow were obliged to letreat to the foret.op to prevent bi ing washed overboard, as cv- jny wave made a clean breach over her. j The mate, Mr. Johnson, died first, six days after tlm disaster. The two bull barrels of salmon, » half barrel of tongues, and a box of China starch were fished up out of the bold, but the drink ing water was all found to be brackish. The salmon, tongues, starch, ami a few fish caught with a hook from time to time, and occusio uilly a little rain wa ter caught in a sail, and always more or less brackish I’totn the salt spray, were all the,ship’s company had tosubsist. on.

Alter the death of the male, on tlm 9ih of July, none occurred till September Olh, when they began to become delirious ami weak f.om hunger and thirst, and several died or jumped overboard in their delirium. Boils and J dis< use, induced by liunger and sail wa ter, added lo tlm in t<nisi y of their suf ferings. Niue often days before the steamer rescued him, Captain llopken | states that a bark rau down to the wu-ck, ( hove to foi a few tuiimies, and then | squared away without sending oil’a heal ! or making any effort to rescue the lives of those on board, of whom there were eight then living, Tho hark came sol i ear that pet sons could be seen niovin- ; about on her deck. Those on tjio brig I were so weak as to be unable to stand, j hut got ou their knees and waved pieces j of sailcloth, hoping to attract attention. j Their feelings, as they saw th • bark i square away, wl en so near thorn, may j be belter imagined than described. Their i last hope being gone they laid down, and one after another died or leaped , overborn and. ” A Mother’s Power, A moment's work on clay tells more | than an hour’s labor on brick.

The trees shed tholr Idos 3-ins over our young heads; the flowers mi the bank iscetn to ofl’er themselves to our young bands, we arc happy in hope, and gr sp eagerly at the beauties around us; bat the stream hurries on, and- still our I and.-r arc empty. Our course in youth and manhood is along a wider and deeper flood, and amid obj icts more striking and magnificent. Wo are ani mated at the moving picture of enjoy ment and industry passing around us— are excited at some short lived dia.ip . poiutuieiit. Wo may bo shipwrecked— we cannot be delayed; whether roiiglj or smooth, the river hastens to its home, till the roar of the ocean is in our ears, and the tossing of the wav-s is beneath cur feet, and the land lessons from our eyes,and the floods ate lifted up around ns and we take our cave ol earth and its inhabitants, until of farther vnyage? there is no witness save Infinite and Eternal.
