Uilltlon.il Details of the Dreadful Disaster.
j n (ho wreck ortho steamer, City
of Columbus, off Martha’s Vineyard,
1 ast Friday, was one of the most
terrible catastrophes that lias
shocked the country for years. Of
the 123 persons on board the ill-
fated steamer, only about 20 were
saved—autl although there were
many women and children on hoard,
wo have not seen an account of the
saving of a single one of them. Be
low we give the latest statements
0 f the accident :
X;;w Bedford, January 21.—The
f irs t blow upon the rocks did not
iir0 u3c more than half of those on
hoard; hut the repeated pounding,
1U) ise and excitement soon brought
noariv all from their state-rooms.—
y/hen the captain abandoned his
(forts to get the vessel off she had
already settled so low that the sea
began to break over her. Then
every thought was turned to the
means of saving life. Captain
WTi'dit rushed into the saloon cabin,
where more than half the passen
gers, half awake, were trying to
realize the cause of the alarm.
The captain sharply, but without
excitement, bade everybody keep
C ool, but to dress and put on their
life-preservers. Even as he enter
ed the saloon a wave followed him,
and there was a terribly distressing
scene; but the passengers seemed
half paralyzed, instead of frenzied,
in their terror. The women begged
for help, but most of them obeyed
the orders of the'officers and the
calmer men in the saloon.
just as the passengers reached
the deck a tremendous sea struck
the ship, and a great white mass of
roaring water fell upon the strand
ed vessel. Sixty terror-stricken
creatures stood upon the dock seek
ing which way to turn in the dark
ness. A moment afterward—and
they were gone. Every woman and
child on board died at that moment
About sixty souls remained on
hoard after this first stroke of death.
The* fate of more than half of those
was still more terrible.
When daylight broke the steward
says there were forty in the rigging.
A few men were clinging to the
stays, and most of these were swept
otf. Then the house broke up, and
the few thereon, or the most of
them, succeeded in reaching the
rigging. There they were in all
sorts of positions. Those who put
their legs through the cross-trees
and partly sat upon the rope were
soon benumbed and lost all control
of their limbs.
The first sign of rescue came at
about 10:30 a. m., when a boat was
seen to put off' from Gay Head
Point, about a mile away. The suf
ferers were unable to understand
the shouts from the boats’ crow,
and finally made out that they
were Indians belonging to a tribe
that still lives on this sandy point.
It was at length understood that
they were unable to come nearer,
and that the survivors must swim
to them. This seven of the men
did, and they were picked up by the
Indians and taken ashore.
As nearly as can be ascertained
only four of this party are now liv
ing. No more help reached the
sufferers for four more hours. One
l»y one they succumbed to the cold,
and only a score were left in the
rigging when help finally arrived.
The coming of the revenue cutter
Dexter about noon, the saving of a
few of the survivors by almost
superhuman efforts, and the special
heroism of Lieutenant Rhodes, of
the Dexter, have already been re
ported.
Several bodies have been washed
Mho re on the low beaches of Mar
tini’s Vineyard, but no accurate
count has been made. The tug
Nellie, Captain Hart, of this port,
was more successful In her search.
Hundreds of persons, including rel-
ntives and friends of tho missing,
"ho had arrived by train, gathered
on the wharf when her approach
whs noticed. Mhe was anxiously
hailed before she could make fast.
“Did you fliul anything?”
The captain held up five fingers
a "d pointed to the standing-room,
Which was filled with dead bodies
covered an old sail. A two-horse
truck loaded with undertakers’
boxes drove on the wharf, and the
Work of transferring the bodies to
the improvised morgue was begun.
Hirst, however, the more anxious
visitors were allowed to seek for
friends.
Five bodies voro found. Tho
fuel's of tho dead, without exception
t°ld of agonizing deaths. Tin
corpso of a young woman. Miss
D 'ueli, was first picked up two and
u half miles from the wreck. Blu
win dressed in night-clothing only.
Not far off the body of Nat 11. Mur
tl >n, of the Boston Globe, win found.
An hour later, about three miles
from the wreck, the body of Rich
ftzd W. Sullivan, a waiter, was pick
ed up. Lastly, tlie tug picked up
the body of a young woman dress
ed in black silk. She wore a seal
cameo l ing inscribed, “Darius, Apr 1
1(1, 1883.” There are nine bodies
awaiting claimants in the old barn
which bad been turned into a dead
house.
It is not true, as telegraphed from
here, that Captain Wright has been
driven insane by the disaster, lie
is terribly overcome, and loath to
talk on the subject. Capt. Wright
insists that either the buoy had
shifted or the reef is outside of it
and not on the chart. The two
men at the wheel left the vessel on
h life-raft, and it is now known
positively that those who sought to
escape in that way are lost.
I.ongstri'Pt hi Dancer.
A lJa!iy Litigant.
A Philiadelpliia special says, Miss
Rebecca Gray had a capias issued
out of the Common Pleas Court a
few days ago for the arrest of H. P.
Jacobs, the proprietor of the Royal
Unique Novelty Company, who had
a show in Horticultural Hall last
week, in a civil suit, to recover
damages for alleged trover and
conversion. Miss Gray is 15 months
old, aYid weighs eight pounds. “She
is the youngest litigant I ever
know,” said the white haired Writ
Clerk Manderson. Baby Gray was
taken by Miss Amanda Richardson
and Mrs. Ermintrout, friends of
Archibald Fisher, her foster father,
to see the show last Friday even
ing. Tho women had seen an adver
tisement offering a diamond ring
that “Hop O’ My Thumb,” a midget
wore on the third linger of his right
hand to any healthy baby under a
year old that could get it on a cor
responding finger.
Professor Bishop came out with
the midget, the diamond ring and
a smooth flow of words. The ring
was said to be worth $200. It was
so small that a lead pencil would
not pass through it. Dozens of
anxious mammas tried it vainly
upon the chubby fingers of their
offspring. It came at last to Baby
Gray’s turn. The ring went on as
easily as the glass slipper upon the
tiny foot of Cinderilla. A buzz of
pleasure went through the hall.
Professor Bishop snatched up the
baby and paraded it round and
round. When all the mothers had
feasted their eyes on the little diu-
mon-decked victor, the professor,
it is alleged, slipped the ring off the
baily’s finger, and whispered to
Miss Richardson: “Mr. Jacobs will
see you latter in the hallway and
give you the ring.” Miss Richard
son did not like that. Neverthe
less, she waited till she saw Mr.
Jacobs and demanded the trophy.
“Nonsense,” said Air. Jacobs, ac
cording to the woman’s story, “that
baby cannot he healthy, I want a
certificate.” He would not give up
the ring. Miss Richardson and
Mrs. Ermentrout argued the mat
ter until they were put out. Then
they had the child’s foster father
enter suit, because Bishop, as the
agent of Jacobs, having parted with
the custody of the ring, the article
became tho child’s by right of gift.
Two deputies from the sheriff’s
office arrested Jacobs this after
noon. At first he contested the
case. He had an engagement in
Baltimore to begin Mondayhowovor
and yielded to-night. He gave the
ring and the costs of the legal pro
ceedings into the hands of the law
firm of Stevenson & Price, tho ba
by’s counsel, and was released.

Richmond, Jan. 23.—In the State
Senate to-day the resolution intro
duced before the holiday recess,
requesting Senator Mahone to re
sign his seat in the United States
Senate, came up as the special or
der. State Senator Newberry, tho
author of the resolution, spoke in
favor of its adoption, and stronglj
arraigned Mnlione’s course since his
election as Senator. Pending fur

d and tho resolution wont over till
Special to tho Constitution.
Washington, January 21.—It is
stated on good authority that Gen
eral Longstreet will he removed
from the nmrshalship of Georgia
very soon. Colonel Fitzsimons lias
written a letter to Mr. Springer and
demanded a hearing before the com
mittee of the department of justice.
He denounces the statement of In
spector Ballin that his accounts
were short and unaccounted for,
as false and will probably throw
light on the present condition of
the marshal’s office in Georgia,
which is very mysterious. When
Mr. Ballin was before Air. Springer,'
lie told how Alarshal Fitzsimons
was short in his accounts in 1881 to
the amount $54,154. Although Fitz
simons’ bond is good, this shortage
has never boon settled, and no ef
fort has been made to force him to
a settlement. Air. Ballin’s expla
nation of a failure of the depart
ment of justice to press the marshal,
was that the officer whose duty it
was to prosecute did not advise a
prosecution. Colonel Fitzsimons
chose his own deputies, who were
skillful in making constructive
charges. Among these skillful per
sons was one named Itobinson,
whose best trick was to serve papers
on persons for whom lie held them,
while they were in town, and then
charge for mileage, meals, guards
and other expenses, as though he
had been obliged to go to their
homes in the country and transport
them. General Longstreet succeed
ed Fitzsimmons, and Itobinson was
employed by Longstreet, who also
retained the entire Fitzsimons’
crowd of deputies, although he was
warned against doing so by tlie de
partment of justice. When Long-
street’s accounts came into the de
partment the officers told him that
Robinson was up to bis old tricks
and he promised to discharge him,
but he did not do it. Another in
vestigation was held, more corrup
tion was discovered, and again a
promise was made to dismiss Rob
inson only to be again broken. At
the beginning of his term General
Longstreet appointed his son John
chief deputy, and a third investiga
tion by the department resulted in
forcing John’s resignation and in
the conviction of Itobinson foT fraud
and perjury. He is now in the Al
bany penitentiary. General Long
street, Air. Ballin testified, /urnish-
ed money for the defense of Robin
son, and Air. Springer has learned
that he has recently been here to
endeavor to induce the president to
pardon Robinson. An investiga
tion in 1882 showed that Longstreet
was short in his accounts about $10,-
000 or $ll,0(ff), and the account is still
unsettled. II. O. Wilson, indicted
last summer for rendering fraudu
lent accounts while deputy mar
shal, has been nominated for re
ceiver of public moneys in Ala
bama. He once made an attack,
Air. Ballin said upon a department
officer who was sent to study bis
methods, and having knocked down
this investigator, he pounded his
face to a jelly.”

Atlanta, January 15.—A curious
suit lias been brought, in this equity,
by Thomas King, in order to estab
lish the status ot his wife and chil
dren. Airs. King, as a young girl,
was married in Alontgomery, Ala.,
in 1800, and her young husband
went immediately to the front as a
soldier. It was reported that he
was killed at the first battle of Bull
Run. In 1805, in the full belief of
the death of her husband, the wid
ow was wooed and won by Thomas
King. The couple moved to La-
Grange, Gu., where they lived hap
pily together until last year, three
children were born to them, now
aged respectively seventeen, fif
teen, and thirteen. One year ago
Air. King was shocked to hear that
the long missing husband still liv
ed. lie immediately separated
from his wife, and was inclined to
sue for a divorce. He was advised
that the marriage having been a
nullity, such a case could not be
settled by divorce proceedings. Bo
he has just tiled in the Fulton Su
perior Court a singular bill in equi
ty, praying that his alledged wife
and three children be cited before
the spring term of the court to an
swer said bill, and prays the court,
in order to determine bis relations
towards said Alary King and chil
dren, and toward society, to fix the
legal status of said children, and to
annul said marriage and declare it
void.

The Columbia correspondent of
the Charleston Neiva & Courier
writes that paper as follows: “Gen.
E. P. Alexander, the distinguished
railroad president, has recently
been on a visit to Georgetown
county. On his return to Augusta
ho has sent Colonel Butler, our
State fish commissioner, a fish, the
like of which no expert in the office
has ever seen. Tho fish is thirty-
nine inches long, seven inches in
girth, and weighs only one pound.
It has no scales and no fins, except
dorsal and pectoral. The dorsal fin
is large, and extends along the en
tire backbone. Tho tail is long, and
ends in a keen point like that of a
whip, there being no fin on the ex
tremity. fl’lie head is large and
savage looking, fl’he eyes are like
wise large, measuring an inch
across. Tho teeth are very long
and sharp, and those on the tip of
the under Jaw projects in front of
the end of the upper jaw. The fish
is evidently rapacious. Gen. Alex
ander, in his letter to Colonel But
ler, says he found It on the beach of
North Island, Winyah Bay, on Fri
day last, and as ft was quite out of
the common run, sent it to our fish
commissioner, requesting that its
name be sent to him it' that could
be ascertained. The fish was en
tirely new to all the natives, except
the lighthouse keeper, (an old sailor)
who said that he had once seen
such a fish caught In mid ocean by
a line trolling from a steamer.—
General Alexander adds, that he is
about to start a sturgeon, and pos
sibly a manlmden fishery on North
Island, and will ho In Georgetown
county most of the spring. The fish
Is a very interesting specimen, and
Cut, Butler will endeavor to have
it identified.”

Air. W. C. Howard has some ducks
that are really enterprising in their
efforts to find a wash hole. Last
Sunday, one of them in its rounds
Jumped upon tho well curbing, and
not being satisfied with the looks of
the hole in the ground, he went
down to investigate. Nothing was
known of- its whereabouts until
some one drew a muddy bucket of
water and looked down in the well
to find out the cause, when the
duck was discovered swimming
around as serenely as you please.
Now and then lie would get up on
a piece of plank, dive off, and then
take a big swim. He was soon
jerked out and nothing more was
thought of the matter until some
time the next day the water was
found to be muddy again, an in
vestigation showed two ducks in
the well this time; adventurer No.
1 had secured a partner and they
were having a real jolly time in the
niae pleasant water thirty-five feet
under ground.
$1,000 In Hold Found in a llollon Log.
Belai be, Ohio, January 20.—
Last spring James Griffin, a young
farmer in the Southern part of this
county, tore down the old log cabin
that had once been his home, and
piled the logs up for use. Yester
day was butchering day, and, after
the neighbors had gathered, the
fire was started with the old logs in
the barnyard. From one of them,
a hollow log, something dropped
into the fire that looked like gold.
It was fished out, and found to be a
$20 gold piece, fl'lie logs were at
once pulled off the fire and an in
vestigation was started. The re
sult was that over $1,000 in gold is
now in possession of the young far
mer. Nothing is known of who
hid it away.

Butler Herald: A very remark
able incident of nature has recently
come to our knowledge, which per
haps may he doubted by some but
it is nevertheless vouched for by
some of the most substantial citizens
of tills county. Mr. Bart Ham,
living a few miles south of Butler,
lias a fine cow which is now giving
