perceived poor Pat Roenan, slowly and
apparently with much fatigue, forcing his
way through the water. The first surprise
was over, all hastened to give assistance;
and with no little difficulty, this "dead
alive" was hoisted on the deck. "Why,
sir," says Pat, blowing and sputtering at
intervals, and seemingly scarcely able to
articulate, it was too bad-to leave a poor
fellow-kicking-his heels in the-middle
of the Atlantic; if it had'nt been for this
blessed calm-I'd have come up with the
old ship." Here Pat sat exhausted upon a
carronade; but he chuckled in his sleeve
when he saw the captain's steward bring-
ing a glass of brandy to revive him. Pat's
impudence, and his invariable reply to all
direct and indirect question put to him on
the subject, "sure I never had such a swim
in my born days, if it had'nt been for the
calm, I'd never have got on board again,"
carried him well through; and the boldness
of his unwavering asseverations staggered
 his messmates into a half belief of the sto-
 ry.
 Time wore on, and the Rockingham ar-
 rived safely at her anchorage in Bombay
 harbor. Like all other nine day wonders,
 Pat's adventure had ceased to be remem-
 bered, when Capt. Graham dining on shore
 With the commander of another vessel in
 the roads, the conversation turned upon
 swimming, and the great power in the wa-
l ter which a black man on board the latter
gentleman's ship displayed. Pat Roenan
and his adventure occurred to Capt. Gra-
- ham. When the wine is in, the wit is
South and considerable bets were laid by
I the two gentlemen upon the result of a tri-
Sal of the powers of the two seamen. The
next morning was named for the match.-
- Pat Roenan was summoned to the quarter
Y deck, and told what was expected from
Shim, and that it was arranged the two men
e should swim directly out to sea, with at-
, tending boats to pick them up when ex-
e hausted. Though a good swimmer, Pat
1 well knew he was no match for the black,
n and he trembled at the consequences of a
s discovery of his deception; still he trusted
" that his native impudence would again
 save him. And so it did. The story of
- the bet had got wind-the beach was
, crowded with people--the boat were
! manned-the swimmers stript, and just
" about to make the plunge, when Pat ex-
d exclaimed, "avast there, brother! heave to
n for a minute, will ye!" He went to his
e own ship's boat and took from it a large
" and well filled bag, which he slowly and
d deliberately began to lash to his back.--
o "Hallo!" cried the gazing black,' "what
d you got dere ?" Grub, to be sure, you
l nigger! you don't suppose I'm such a
o greenhorn as to go to sea on a cruise with-
- out laying in a stock of provisions ?" Why
s. how long you going to swim ?" How can
Y I tell, you black squall, how long we shall
g be out ; it won't be less than a week, any
- how," said Pat, with the greatest coolness.
f He knew his man; nothing could induce
h the black to swim ; Pat came off with fly-
n ing colors, muttering to himself, Och, an:
e it would be a quare thing if I couild'nt
' bother a nigger, when I chated my own
o captain."

 TO THE PUBLIC.
THE SUBSCRIBER, having purchased
 The Southern .griculturalist from its late
Editor and proprietor, Mr. John D. Legare,
jolicits the support of the friends of Agricul-
ture, and of the interests connected withA it
throughout the Southern States. He, has
publishedd this work for Mr. Legare from its
commencement, in the year 1828, and he is
us practically acquainted with the mode in
vhich it should be conducted. Its publica-
tion will be continued on the same terms and
In the same manner as heretofore with such
improvements as his experience may suggest.
 As the subscriber is solicitous to make this
Journal the'vehicle for dissemminating ueful
information, not only with regard to estab-
lished systems of husbandry, but also expert '
mental efforts in AgricultIre and Horticul-
ture, he invites free and unrestricted commu-
nication from all persons occupied in these,
pursuits. Let no one imagine that solitary
facts or isolated experiments are too trivial to
be communicated.. All systematic knowl-
edge is but the aggregate of humble particu-
lars; and Science, in every department, -is
brought to perfection, not through the instru-
mentality of a single exrraordinarymind, but
by the contribution of particulars by many
individuals, and generally after the lapse of"
many years, he is desirous, therefore, to have
as many facts to record as can be furnished ;.
and from the planter, who is systematic in
his experimental labors, an account of his
failures as well a his successful efforts, will
be acceptable. If the last are worthy of being
recorded that they may be imitated, the first
should be noted in order to be shunned.
 The subscriber hopes that this appeal to his
fellow citizens of the South, will not be in
vain. It would be a reproach to our Planters
to meet the fate of the Southern Review. Of
the last it may be justly said, that it was suf-
fered to fall, when it was not only rearing for
us a well merited fame as a literary people,.,
but it was also vindicating the Southern hab-
its from the unjust aspersions which have
been so liberally bestowed upon us out of our
section of country. The 14 Southern Agri--
culturalist" in some measure supplies the
place of the Southern Review, so far as re-
gards the circumstances last alluded to. If
serves as a Register not only of methods of
Husbandry, but also of facts relating to our
system of Slavery. The subjects of the deci-
pline, the treatment, the characters of our
Slaves, are fairly suited to its pages, and
constitute topics as interesting and important
as any which can engage either our own at--
tention or the attention of those abroad, who
feel a legitimate interest ,in our concerns.
 The subscriber begs leave, in conclusion,
 to remark, that if he had not undertaken to
 continue the publication of this Periodical, it,
 most probably, would have been either re-
 .moved from our city, or been .suspended.
 Whetherit will be inhis power to continue it,
 will depend not only on the Pecuniary but
 the Literary Contributions of Southern Plan
 ters. He confidently now leaves this matter
 in their hands, feeling a full assurance that
 there is wanting on the part of our Planters,
 neither the liberality nor mental energies ne-
 cessary to sustain the Southern Agriculturist.

 MISCELLANEOUS.
 A TOUGH YARN.
 I'1 tell the tale as 'twas told me."
 The Rockingham, outward bound East
Indiaman, was skimming along before a
freshning breeze which had just begun to
ruffle the broad bosom of the Atlantic; ev-
ery stitch of canvass was set, and joy sat
smiling on the countenances of all at the
prospect of soon escaping from the regions
of calms and variable winds, when sudden-
ly a seaman engaged about the rigging, lost
his hold and fell overboard. "Put the
helm down!" shouted the officer of the
watch, "a man overboard! Aft here, cut-
ters ; clear away the boat!" In one mo-
ment all was bustle and excitement; small
sails flapping in the wind, studding-sail
booms cracking, tacks and halyards let go
by the run.
 The ship flew rapidly up in the wind,
 the main-braces were let go, and the main-
 yard swung back. The cutters were low-
 ering the boat, when.,puddenly came the
 orders, "keep all fast 'tis too late! Port,
 quartermaster, keep the ship on her course!
 After guard, brace up the main-yard!"-
 and these promptly and actively obeyed,
 soon the vessel moved on in the even ten-
 or of her course. All was silence and
 gloom, for poor Pat Roenan was a univer-
 sal favorite.
 Meanwhile, however, the cause of all
 this commotion was quietly perched upon
 the rudder, patiently waiting upon some
 friendly hand to render him assistance.-
 The officer of the deck had seen him go
 down under the ship's quarter, and looked
 in vain for his xe-appearance, of having
 risen under the counter, and, being a gooc
 swimmer, instantly and instinctively strik.
 ing out for the rudder-chains, Pat loudly
 shouted for help, but, amid the noise and
 confusion which prevailed, his cries wer
 unheard. Being a bold and active fellow
 and not gifted with much patience, hE
 made a spring for one of the gun-roon
 ports, which, in tropical latitudes, are ofier
 kept open to give air to the various stcreE
 the room contains, and once more succeed
 ed in getting on board.
 Tired with his exertions, he seated him
 self for a moment, after looking around
 what a tempting spectacle presented itself
 On one side was a tin, box of the best bis
 cuts, on the other an open case of bottle'
 ale. Pat looked long and wishfully at then
 both, weighing the enjoyment against tb
 probable consequences; at last," here goes,'
 said he, dipping his hand into one, am
 taking a bottle from the other, and in tw
 minutes a 'quart of the best Hodgson ha(
 changed masters. He soon began to fee
 its powerful effects, butibefore yielding t

 er, and to lie down between two packages
 Here he slept soundly, and unobserved bI
 the gunner when he went his evening,
 rounds, till the shrill sound of the boat
 swain's pipe awakened him to a sense o
 his situation, and the discipline to which
 he had subjected himself; but the common
 boardship saying, "swallow a tooth of th
 dog that bite you," recurred to his recollec
 tion; and having in vainendeavored t
 stifle his conscience in any other way, h
 at length fairly drowned it in another bot
 tie of the intoxicating beverage. The con


sequence was another long sleep, froe
which he awoke with all the horrors otth
"cat" hanging over him. But it was tim
to think how to escape from the dilemma
and when an Irishman once fairly sets hi
wits to work, what can he not accomplish

attained his meridian, and the smooth an

most intolerable splendour, while the shi

ting himself quietly overboard, he dropped
as far astern as he could without being o!

bells in the forenoon watch; as usual, th
officers were busy "taking the sun," an
laughing and joking with each other, whe

 SUNDAY MORNING NEWS.
T HE Sunday Morning News has now been
 before the public for upwards of three
months, and if any criterion can be drawn
from the number of its patrons and subscrib-
ers, it has met with a flattering acceptance,
and the principles it has been guided by in
its management, have been approved and
sanctioned. Asa consequence of its increas-
ed circulation, its advertising friends have;
come forward in large numbers; and,asitmay
now be considered fairly afloat, and rising on
the tide of public favor, it affords an admira
ble vehicle for the dissemination of such in-
telligence as those engaged in business wish
to communicate to their correspondents and
customers.
 The number of papers supplied to casual
enquirers, in addition to the regular subscri-
Iers, on Sundays, is very great, and is con-
stantly increasing; which is another proof of
popular approbation, and a sign of the attrac-
tive character of its general and miscellane-
ous contents.
 Under these favorable circumstances the
Sunday Morning News will proceed with re-
doubled confidence and energy, in laboring
to gratify the curiosity and taste of the pub-
lic, in all the various items of intelligence
which form the staple of a weekly journal.--
The man of business 'will be sure ,to find
therein the most recent and correct informa-
tion upon the state of the foreign and domes.
tic markets, the current of business, the arri-
val of vessels, and every thing connected
with mercantile affairs; the politician will
meet with a faithful abstract of the move-
ments of parties, with legislative proceedings
here, together with l'details of the political
operations on the continent of Europe, and
every other quarter of the globe : the lover of
varied and diversified reading will find the
means of gratifying-his appetite as copiously
supplied as possible; while the admirers of
literature will be sure to discover something
to suit their tastes, in the choicest extracts
from native and foreign periodicals, and in
the contributions of popular and approved
writers. The tone preserved throughout, will
be that of scrupulous morality, so that the
most fastidious shall have nothing to object
to on this score-and the wish of the proprie-
tor, as it has been and will continue to be his
duty as well as his desire, shall be to unite
in its columns in well arranged and digested
order, all that is sound and elegant in litera-
ture, amusing in art, instructive in the scien-
ces, and necessary for a correct appreciation
of passing events. ,
