She made good weather until April 14, when an immenee ice floo was sighted rear Flemis Cap,a giant rock in the ocean, and off St. John, anda heavy fog came up. With the fear of striking tho ice floe in the thick fog, it was with miegivinge, that many of the seventy four men turned into their bunks at night. The fate, the fear of which had troubled them, came to them about midnight, in impenetrable darknees wd fog. The brig and iceberg crashed together, the impact crush mg inthe vessel from her bow to the foremast and openipg the hold toa rush of water that awkened the sleeping crew and sent them scamp tring to the deck. The vessel must sink ia a few minutes and the men turned at once to the life-boats, four in number,and capable of carrying not more than a dozen men each Men forgot their brotherhood in the mad struggle to secure a place in one of ths poor little boats, and to heed even was paid to a dozen or more of the company who lay dead and dying in the debris resulting from the collision. It is certain only one boat eecaped the whirlpool caused by the sinking of the brigantine. With such haste did the railors scape from the sinkiog brigantine that not only bad they no clothing with them but they were unable to eure water and food, and ia the) morning the seven men in one o! the boats found themselves afloat with nothing aboard with: which to sus tain life. The fog did not lift until late the Rext day,and the weather was biting told, while icy spray fell over the men unremittingly.

PIt was on the twelfth day of their Qhipwreck that the lookout of the fishing schooner Victor Eugene» bund for Pierre,saw afar off a speck ee New York World. They were Greeke, plainly so. Their accznt and faces tcld it; so did the enthusiasm of tha three. Yes- terday afternoon they walked into Roberts’ gun estore in Twenty-third street and asked to look at guns, pistols end other equipments of war. The Greeks made selections “We're from Boston,” they ex- plained, “and we're going back on La Champagne to morrow to fight the Turks.” One of them pulleJ ont money to pay for what they bad bought, and was about to receive his change, when a well dressed womaa of mid- dle age stepped up. “On your way to Greece, are you?” she asked pleasantly, and tho three said they were, and that they were going to fight. “I'm interested in your country and you, then,” she continued. “I've read much about your country and its brave men, and I want to help. I am going to pay for your arms Me With that she palled out a well- filled purse, and before the astonish ed Greeks could recover she had paid their bill, about $30.

Whils the soldiers were eatiog. a large number of women attacked them for food for their cbildren and themselves. Many of them were wounded by the trcops. WEYLER FINDS TREASON. Gen. Weyler bas sent to Spain several officers of the army with grave charges of aiding the insar- gent:. He discovered that the offi- cers exchanged ammunition and arms for cattle aod money witha well known Cuban leader of Santa Clara Province. MASSACRE AT A HOSPITAL. Commander Carlos Garcia of the Spanish army was badly defeated at Elinfierno, near Trinidad, where with the Soria battalion he tried to attack the insurgents. While retreating the Spanish commander found out that near by the insurgents had a hospi tal, and he gave orders to attack the place. There were about seventy persons in the hospita), among them women and children, and they were hacked to pieces.

The| number of cases increases every day tian does not give the full idea of his | character. “In one respect there was to some extent misapprebensions of his character. It was sometimes alleged he was self willed, imperious und stubborn. Those in close contact with him did not so regard him. “The solicitude of President Davis for the success of the Confederate army caused him eeveral times to put himself under the fire of the Federals in battle. At the battle of Seven Piues (Fair Oaks) I saw him, under a heavy fire of musketry and remonstrated against him so expos- ing himself when there was no special necessity for it. During the fiercest of the seven days’ fighting near Richmond he was exposed to the enemy's fre and General Lee ordered him to quit the field. “Some days afterward when Gen- eral ee appeared in the Cabinet, Mr. Davis jocularly said ha bad supposed he was commander in chief. but that General Lee bal ordsred him from the field, and oa the day of the bat- tle between Richmond and Petera- burg I saw Mr. Davis in company ers fora considerable time. duriog which several persons were bit, and one soldier boy standing near the President bad bis arm shot off by a shell. At the request of some of the field, as his exposure to the fire of the enemy was unnecessary.
