POPULAR MONTHLY DRAWING OF THE COMMONWEALTH DISTRIBUTION CO., in the city of Louisville, on SATURDAY, APRIL 29rn, 18 Sep cca om oe ceerinens ‘The United States Cirouit Court, on March 31 dered the following decision: oa nobis Wen tee Terms moderate | A Thrilling Episode im the Life of Governor Thos, L. Yuang, Member ef Congress, - ‘One of the most remarkable men in the country is the Member of Congress from the 24 Ohio district. Mr. Young is famous not only for his hard-fought and hot political campaigns, but for hin battling with fate and fortune, in more ways than usually present them- selves to » sojourner in this vale of tears. Mr. Young has had many adventures by and and sea, but he has fortnmately survived them all, and now he fills one of the most honorable positions in the gift of the Ameri- can people. ‘Thos. L. Young, of Cincinnati, was born in the town of Kiliyleagh, County of Down, Ireland, December 14th, 1832, and emigrated to the United States when but aboy of tender years. The last year of the Mexican war found young Thomes as an enlisted soldier, and ‘with the heroes of Chepultepec, Santa Cruz, etc., he re- mained an enlisted soldier until 1857. It was daring his term of enlistment that the romantic incident given below occurred. Young Thomas had been selected by Major Hawkins, U. 8. A., to accompany him ons yoy- age to San Fraucisco, from New York, on the steamer San Francisco, a splendid new vessel, which was to make her first trip for the Pacific Mail 8. 8. line. The steamer cleared from the port of New York in Decem- ‘ber, '53, with more than a thousand souls aboard, from the military and the civic ranks, Every thing went weil with all until the 24th day of December found the vessel ina gale off Cape Hatteras. The roughness of that quaz- ter is proverbial, and the gallant ship was soon iniq waste, and buffeted by wind and sea. The gale lasted for fully thirteen days, and is remem- ered as the fiercest that ever swept thoee waters. When day broke on the 26th, the San Francisco was little bet- ter than a dismantled hulk upon the ocean; her mast® and smokestacks had been carried away, and her engine was ure'ees, a shaft having broken, thus totally incapa- citating her. Her steering apparatus wes now all that could be used in the guidance of the good ship, but the fates decreed that even that most useful of all the ship’s apparatus was to become useless also. On the night of the 29th her rudder chains parted, and she thus became a hopeless wreck. Of the suffering of her passengers and crew from this time forward we give Mr. Young's own words. He says: “That night was the longest of all the long nights of my life; the tossing and pitching of the vessel, the howl- ing of the tempest, the booming and hissing of the mad | Waves, andthe agonized shrieking of the passengers ring in my earseven now. The morning of the 30th our condition was pitiable in the extreme. The sea ran | mountains high, and broke over the yossel incessantly. | About 10 o'clock I was standing beside the wheelhouse, | and was holding tightly to the brass rods, a number of | Which ran in a lsteral way over the window, when a ter- | rifle wave struck tho ship and careened her. I felt my feet shoot out ip a straight line with my body,and knew | that the ship was submerged. For more than a min- ute seemfuxTy we were completely hidden in the trough of the sea, but the good vessel recovered herself,and we again reached the surface. ‘Tho sight which met my ‘Saze as soon as I was sufficiently recovered tolook about te, was horrible in the extreme, J was the only living being on the deck of the steamer—all ot hers on deck bad | had stood tho main cabins, now glistened rows of bright spikes—over two hundred and fifty persous, who hud crowded the deck and cabins, nestling here and there from the fury of tho gale, were swept into eternity in that awful moment. I was horror stricken, and looked on each sucoveding moment as my last. It was fearful. Day by day, men and women, crazed from fright, thirst and hunger, leaped over the ship's sides into the mad sea, ‘Themorning of the 2d of Jan- uary will be tome an ever memorabie time; to the suf- ferer relief is always doubly welcome. He who dracs the weary chain of time, while waiting and hoping for @ reprieve from dexth, knows and only knows what suspense is. ‘The sufferer’ from somerireadful disease, who watches the eye of hie physician and is cheered by the smile of hope; the sufferer from that most dreadful and most vevalent of all diseases—rheumatism ; who anxiously grasps the ove and only remedy for it—St. Jacobs Oil, knows what the shipwrecked mariner feels when, after days and weeks of suffering, the sail of hope looms insight. ‘Those of us who were able to be on deck on that memorable morning sighted a vessel bearing down upon us. All day she endeavored to near us, but found it impossible to render us any assistance, and when the veilof night shut out the sca from our saze,and with it our whilom saviour, our hope gave way to disappointment. Another night of suffering ensued. But the morning broke, more promising than any which had preceded it, and we soon sighted the ship aysin; ns time from her main cross-trees hung a blackboard, broad ang high, bearing the cheering,and to me, never- to-he-forxotten, words, “Be of good cheer, I will save you or sink by you." And we were saved. The ship Proved to be the Scotch ship ‘Three Bells," Captain Campbell. bound for New ‘York from Liverpool. Speaking of hope and despair, of suffering and relief, of rheumatiam and St. Jaoobs Oil, reminds me that the words of hope trom that blackboard would be a very suitable motto for St. Jacobs Oil. I was the second last man to leave the vessel, but I was inpretty good condition compared to several others. However, I attributed the rheumatism from which I have suffered for the past few years to the sufferings and exposure of that time. It only now remains forme tosay that St. Jacobs Oil has proved the means of cure in that case, and fixed me up in ship shape. My shoulder was in an awful state with the rheumatism, and kept me a regular martyr—go to speak—to that very uncomfortabie ailzaent for along time, Dut it soon gave ‘way under a judicious use of the Oil. In fact it took Just eight days to effect a permanent cure, and free me from my rheumatism. St. Jacobs Oil is to the rheu- matic sufferer what a staunch ship and a smooth sea is to the voyager—eversghing. Itia a destroyer of bodily pains, rhoumatism or otherwise, and the satest, surest and best remedy imown. I have recommended tt t several persons, both in Washington and Cincinnaty, and as to ‘hearing people speak well of the Great Gorman Remedy, that is au every day ocourrence. It isa veedful remedy, T assure you, on land or ees, and in my opinion the best in the market. But that was rather s bad wrecking ‘scrape, was it not? One in which, as I said berore, the Oil ‘ould not have much show. Talwayslook back upon that time with horror, aud shudder when Tthink of how near 1 was to death.” We certainly coincided in.the opinion of Governor Young, and as we took our leave of the gen:leman and walked towards the office we could not Dut reflect on his remarkable career. Afow years after the adventure above related, Mr. Young was practicing Jaw in Cincinnati and was one of the ablast udvocates at tho bar of Justice. When the Rebellion broke out he enlisted in the volunteors as a first lieutenant, and through the war was steadily promoted until he re. turned with the rank of Brevet Brigadier General. In 1865 he was appointed Assistant City Auditor of Cincin- nati, and was elected the same sear a member of the state House of Representatives. In 1867, he was elected. Recorder of Hamilton County; in 1368, ‘waa appornted Supervisor of Internal Revenue; iu the same year was delegate to the Republican National Convention of Chi- cage; in 1871, was elected state Senator; in 1375, was Lieutenent-Governor; in 1877, succeeded Presideut Hayes as Governor of Obio; was elected to the Forty- Sixth Congress,- and re-elected to the Forty-Seveuth, where he now, with unequalled eloquence, with powers possessed by but few of his colleagues, and with the Farest and most flowery eloqueace, advocates the good of his country, the rights of hts constituency, and the merits of St. Jacobs Oil, the Great German Remedy. Governor Young, as will be seen by the above, is, as we enid at the bexinning, » most remarkable man, and yet, notwithstanding the fact that he has met so many ad- ventures and honors, he is to-day the very quintessence of modesty. He is affable, polite and courteous, learned, polished end urbane. What more oould we say? What more can be desired? It M ADAME WASHINGTON, No. 1211 PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE.
