Ht * *t- Jf- * HE Laughing Mary was safe©’ jlii “ rm light “6‘ a vessel ship, that as sailors stands upon the water, having discharged her cargo at Callao, from which port wc were pro¬ ceeding in ballast to Cape Town, South Africa, there to call for jjf orders. Our run to t'i within a few parallels of the latitude of the Horn had been extreme¬ ly pleasant; the prover¬ i) bial mildness of the Pacific ocean was in the mellow sweetness of the .wind and in the gentle undulations of the silver-laeed swell; but scarce had wo passed the height of 49 degs. when the weather grew sullen and dark, a heavy bank of clouds of a livid hue rose in the northeast, and the wind came and went in small gusts, the gusts vent¬ ing themselves in dreary moans, insomuch that our oldest hands confessed they had never beard blasts more portentous. The gale came on with some lightning and several claps of thunder and heavy rain. Though it was but 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the air was so dusky that the men had to feel for the ropes; and when the first of the tem¬ pest stormed down upon us, the appearance of the sea was uncommonly terrible, being swept and mangled into boiling froth in the northeast quarter, while all about us and in the southwest it lay in a sort of swollen hud¬ dle of shadows, glooming into the darkness of the sky without offering tho smallest glimpse of the horizon. In a few minutes the hurricane struck us. We had bared the brig down to tho close reefed maintopsail; yet, though wo were dead before the outfly, its first blow rent the fragment of sail as if It were formed of smoke, and in an instant it disappeared, flash¬ ing over the bows, like a scattering of torn paper, leaving nothing but the bolt ropes be¬ hind. The bursting of the topsail was like tho explosion of a large cannon. In a breath the brig was smothered with froth torn up in huge clouds, and hurled over and ahead of her in vast quivering bodies that filled the wind with a dismal twilight of their own, in which nothing was visible but their terrific speeding. Through these slinging, soft, and singing masses of spume drove the rain in horizontal steel like lines, which gleamed in the lightning stroke, as though indeed they were barbed weapons of bright metal, darted by armies of invisible spirits raving out their war cries as thoy chased us. The storm mado a loud thunder in the sky, and this tremendous utterance dominated without subduing the many screaming, hiss¬ ing, shrieking and hooting noises raised in the rigging and about the decks, and tho wild, seething, weltering sound of the sea, maddened by the gale and struggling in its enormous passion under the first choking and iron grip of the hurricane’s hand. But though the first rage of the storm was terrible enough, its fierceness did not come to its height till about 1 o’clock in the middle watch. Long beforo then the sea had grown mountainous, and the danco of our egg shell of a brig upon it was sickening and affright- ing. No man could show himself on deck and preserve his life. Between the rails it was wayst high, and this water, converted by the motions of the brig into a wild torrent, had its volume jierpetually maintained by ton loads of sea, falling in dull and pounding crashes over the bows on to the forecastle. There was nothing to be done but secure the helm and await the issue below, for if we were to be drowned it would make a more easy foundering to go down dry and warm in the cabin, than to perish half frozen and already nearly strangled by the bitter cold and flooded tempest on deck. There was Capt. Rosy; there was myself, by name Paul Rodney, mate of tlio brig, and there were the remaining seven of a crew, including the carpenter. We sat in the cabin, one of us from time to time clawing his way up the ladder to peer through the companion, and we looked at one another with the melancholy of malefactors waiting to be called from their cells for the last jaunt to Tyburn. continued Thus it till daybreak, when something of ita midnight fury went out of the gale. The carpenter made shift to sound tho well, and to our great satisfaction found hut little water, only as much as we had a right to suppose she would take in above. By noon the wind had weakened yet, but the ■sa still ran very heavily, and the sky was ■acommonly thick clouds;'.and with piles of dusky, yel- lawisb,.hurrying though we could fairly reckon upon our position, the atmosphere was so nipping it was difficult to persuade ourselves that Cape Horn was not close aboard. Wo could uow work the puntps, and a Short spell freed tho brig. We got up a new maintopsail and bent it, and setting the reefed foresail put the vessel before the wind, and away she ran, chased by the swollen seas. Thus wo continued till by dead reck¬ oning we calculated that we were about thirty leagues south Of the 87*degs. parallel of the Horn, and' In longitude west. We then boarded our larboard tacks aud brought the brig as close to the wind as it was proper to lay her for a progress that should not be wholly leeway; but four hours after we had handled the braces the gale, that had not veered two peints since it first came on to blow, stormed up again into its first fury, jtnd the morning of the 1st of Jul 3 r , A. D. 1801, found the Laughing Mary passionately laboring in the midst of an enraged Cape Horn sea, her jibboom and foretopgalluut- mast gone, her ballast shifted, so that her posture, even in a calm, would have exhibited her with her starboard channels under and her decks swept by enormdrfs 1 'surges, which, fetching her larboard bilgts dreadful blows, thundered in mighty green masses over her. CHAPTER IL THE ICEBERG. The loss of the spars I have named was no great matter, nor were we to be intimidated by sueh weather as was to be expected off Capo Horn. But there was an inveteracy in the gate which had driven us down to this part that bore heavily upon our spirits. It was impoe slble to trim the ballast. We dared not veer so as to bring the tiOp on the other tack. With helm lashed and yards pointed to the tmuiing wind, thus we lay, tfru» we drifted, steadily with the send of each giant surge farther and deeper into the icy regions of tbs southwest, helpless, foreboding, disconsolate. It was the night of the fourth day of the month. The crew were forward it;.the fore* castle, and I knew not if any man was on deck saving myself. I stood ht the companion as in a sentry box, with my eyes just above the cover. Nothing was to be seen but sheets of ghostly white water, sweeping up the blackness on the vessels le^ «r breaking and boiling to windward. After a long and eager look round Into the obscurity, sem(lucent with froth, I went below for a mouthful of spirits and a bite ot supper, the hour being eight bells in the second dog watch, as we say—that fc, eight o’cloek in the evening. The captain and car¬ penter were in the cabiu. Upon-tho swing tray over the table were a piece of corned beef, somo biscuit, and a bottle of holluuds. “We’re in an ugly part of the globe,’’ says Capt. Rosy. “When bad sailors die th. y’re sent here, I reckon. The worst nau¬ tical sinner can't bo hove to long off tho Horn without coming out of it with a purged soul. He must start afresh to deserve further pun¬ ishment.” “Well, here's a breeze that can’t go on blowing much longer,” cries tho carpenter. “The place it comes from must give out soon, onless a uow trade wind’s got fixed into a whole gale for this hero ocean." “What southing do you allow our drift will be giving us, captain?” I asked, munch¬ ing a piece of beef. “All of four mile an hour,” be answered. “If this goes on I shall look to make some discov- ; eries. The antarctic circle won’t be far off presently, and -since you’re a scholar, Rod¬ ney, I’ll leave you to describe what’s inside of it—though boil me if I don’t have tho naming of tho tallest land; for, d’ye see, I’ve a mind to be known after I’m tkiad, and there's nothing like your signature on a mountain to bo remembered by.?’ ■ At this instant we were startled by a wild and fearful shout on deck. It sounded high above the sweeping and seething of the wind and the hissing of the lashed waters, and it penetrated the plunks with a note that gave it an inexpressible character of anguish. “A man washed overboard!” bawled the carpenter, springing to his feet. “No!” cried 1, for my younger and shrewder ear hud caught a note in the cry that per¬ suaded mo it was not os the carpenter said; and in an instant the three of us jumped up the ladder and gained the deck. The moment I was in tho gale the same affrighted cry rang down along the wind from some man forward: “For God’s sake, tumble up lieforo we are upon it!” “What do you see?” I roared, sending my voice, trumpet fashion, through my hands; for as to my own and tho sight of Capt. Rosy and tho carpenter, why, it was like being struck blind to come on a sudden out of tin lighted cabin into the black night. Any reply that might have been attempted was choked out by tho dive of the brig's head into the sea, which furiously flooded her forecastle, and came washing aft like milk in the darkness, till it was up to our knees. “See there .'"suddenly roared tho carpenter. “Where, man—where?” bawled the captain. But in this brief time my sight had grown used to tho night, and I saw the object-before tho carpenter could answer. It lay on our lee beam, but how far off no man could have told in that black thickness. It stood against the darkness and hung out a dim complexion of light, or rather of pallidness, that was not light—not to be described by the pen. If was like a small hill of snow, and looked os snow does, or the foam of the sea in darkness, and it came and went with our soaring and sinking. “Ice!” I shouted to the captain. “I see it,” he answered. “We must drive her clear at all risks.” There was no need to call the men. To the set-out! cry that had been raised by one among-ttiem, who had come out of the fore¬ cast! e and seen the berg, they had tumbled up os sailo-.-s will when thoy jump for their lives; and now they came staggering, splash¬ ing, crawling aft to us, for the lamp in the cabin made a sheen in tho companion hatch, and they could see us as we stood there. “Men, 1 ’ cried Capt. Rosy, “yonder’s a gravestone for our carcasses if wo are not lively! Cast the helm adrift!” (we steered by a tiller). “Two hands stand by it For¬ ward, somo of ye, and loose tho forestaysail, and show tho head of it!” -The fellows hung in the wind. I could not wonder. Tho bowsprit had been sprung when the jibboom watf wrenched from tho cap by the fall of the topgatlantmait; it still had to bear the weight of the heavy spritsail yard, and the drag of the staysail might carry the Spar overboard with the men upon it. Yet it was our best-chance; tho one sail most speedily released and hoisted—the ono that would pay the brig’s head off quickest, and the only fragment that promised to stand. “Jump!” roared the captain, in a passion of hurry. “Great thunder! tis close aboard 1 You’ll leavo me no sea room for veering if you delay an instant." “Follow rrfo who will!” I cried out; “and others stand by ready to hoist away.” Thus speaking—for thero seemed to my mind a surer promise of death in hesitation at this supremo moment, than in twenty such risks as laying out on the bowsprit sig¬ nified—I made for the lee of the weather bulwarks and blindly liauled myself forwurd by sueh pins and gear as canto to my hands. A man ni!.;ht spend his life on tho ocean and never have to deal with such a passage as this-. I got on to the bawrpril, r.K>u'y stifled by tho showering of the seas, hnldJag an open knifo Is:tween my teeth, halt dazed by the prodigious motion of the light brig, which at this extreme end of her was to bo felt to the full height of its extravagance. At every plunge I expected to be buried, and every moment 1 was prepared to be torn from my hold. Commending myself to God, for I was now to let go with my hands, I pulled the knife from my teeth, and, feeling for the gaskets or lines which bound the sail to the spar, I cut and hacked as fast as I could ply my arms. In a flash the gale, whipping into a. liberated fold of the canvas, blew the whole sail out; the bowsprit reeled and quivered under me; I danced off it with incredible dispatch, shouting to the mfen to hoist away. The head of the staysail mounted in thunder, and the slatting of its folds and the thrashing of its sheet was like the rattling of heavy- field pieces whisked at full gallop over a stony road. “High enough!” I bawled, guessing enough was shown, for I could not see, “Get a drag upon the sheet, lads, and then aft with you for your lives!” Scarce had I let forth my breath in this cry when I heard the blast as of a gun, and knew by that the sail was gone; an instant after wash came ft mountainous sea sheer over the weather bulwark* fair Betwixt the fore and main rigging? but happily ^standing near the fore shrewd* S wwt holding on with both hands to tbe toi-Hi haljrards while call¬ ing to tbenuaj *» of being under the nil, which broke the Wow the sea, and holding on too, no mischief befel me—only that for m il)— ii— - ' V , 1 horrible twenty seconds stood in a fhry and smother of frothing water, hearing faculty nothing, seeing nothing, with every in me no numbed and dulled by the wet, cold, end horror of our situation, that I know not whether iu that space of time I was in tho least degree sensible of what had happened or what might befall. The water leaving the deck, 1 rallied, though half drowned, and staggered aft, and found the helm deserted, nor could 1 Roe any sign* of inv companions, I r i to tho tUter, a. id putting my wholey vi , ...id foreo to R, drove it up to windw;r.i .. - secured it a turn of its own ruttp; for it* or no ice— and for the moment I was so blinded by tho wet that I could not see the berg— my mad¬ ness now was to get the brig before the sea and out of the trough, advised t ..-very in¬ in me that such another su. ::s that which had rolled over her must t. td her' to the bottom in less time than it would take a man to cry “Oh God!” A figure came out of tho blackness on tho lee side of the deck. “Who is that?” said he. It was Capt. Rosy. I answered. “What, Rodney!—alive?” cried he. “I think I have boon struck insensible.” Two more figures came crawling aft; then two more. They were the carpenter and three seamen. I cried out, “Who was at the helm when that sea was shipped?” A man answered, “Me, Thomas Jobling.” “Where’s your mate?” I asked; and it seemed to me that I was the only man who had his senses full just then. “He was washed forward along with me,” he replied. Now a fifth man joined us; but before I could question him as to the others, tho cap¬ tain, with a scream like an epileptic’s cry, shrieked, “It’s all ever with us! We are upon itt” I looked and perceived the iceberg to be within a musket shot, whence it was door that it had been closer to us when first sighted than the blackness of the night would suffer ns to distinguish. In a time like this at sea events throng so fast they come in a heap, and even if the intelligence were not confounded byjho uproar and peril—if, in¬ deed,^ were as placid ns in any time of per¬ fect security—it could not possibly take note of eae-tenth that happens. I confess that, for my part, 1 was very nearly paralyzed by the nearness of tho ice¬ berg, and by the cry of the captain, and by tho perception that there was nothing to be done. That which I best recollect is the ap¬ pearance of the mass of ice lying solidly, like a little island, upon tho seas which roared in creaming waters about it- All other features were swallowed up in the agouy of the time. One monstrous swing the brig gave, like to some doomed creature’s last delirious struggle; the bowsprit caught tho ico and snapped with the noise of a great tree crackling in fire. I could hear the masts breaking overhead—the crash and blows of spars and yards torn down aud striking the hull; above all, the grating of the vessel, that was now bead on to the sea and swept by the billows, broadside on, along the sharp and murderous projections. Two monster seas tumbled over the bows, floated me off my legs, and dashed me against the tiller; to which I clung. I beard uo cries. I regained my feet, clinging with a death grip to the tiller, and, seeing no one near me, tried to holloa, to know if any man were living, but could not make my voice sound. ^2 / Clinging with a death grip to the tiller. The fearful grating noise ceased on a sud¬ den, and the faintness of the berg loomed upon the starboard bow. IVe had been hurled elear of it and * ere to leeward; but what was our condition? I tried to shout again, but to no purpose, and was iu the act of quitting the tiller to go forward, when I was struck over the brows by something from aloft—a block, as I believe—and fell senseless unon the deck. pro ,ii coxnNOtD.i New Advertisements.
