5- ' -a v.- W. r . .i -- WHOLE NUMBER 1141 VOLUME IXNUMBER 90. WILMINGTON, N. C SATURDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 14, 1854. iy. ' - ili r MISCELLANY. . Dining at Sea in Roach Weather. The ship's company often reap much jr- iimusement from the little, accidents, the - ridiculous tumbles, and the 6trange pos- . - J1 tures which the passengers are thrown in- t lo bj the unsteady motion of the vessel : indeed, we now feel so little alarm during a firale, that. we. sometimes disregard its perils, and join in their smiles, and jokes, xt the ludicrous occurrences which hap- . ten.-., among; ourselves.., ., Hogarth might ,- have feasted upon them. In the confusion of motion, caused by the heavy seas, if we attempt to walk, tee felch away, and are toss ed to the farthest side of the cabirvin all the odd and uncommon, figureshat can ne imagined and often, before we can re gain our Jes, -ifae bip yields" to another wave, and we are tumbled m toe most lu dicrous manner to th$ opposite side, kick- in sr. strursriins;, or crawling', amid a con fusion of moving-chairs, stools, boxes, and other furniture. Our dinner ceremony is often rendered a humorous scene: at this hour the cabin being the general rendez vous of the party, we must crawl tremb ling toward the table, and tie ourselves in the chairs.' A tray is set before us, with tleep holes cut in it for the dishes, plates, And glasses : the table and chairs are lash d to the deck : yet one or the other fre quently gives: way, and upsets half the things in the cabin I Presently enters the steward with soup, followed by his little slave with, potafocs,and the servant with such other covers as there may chance to be.- ' But scarcely are the things upon the table, and the servams stationed clinging ' to ihe backs of our chairs, before a sudden lurch of the ship tumbles all into disorder. Away go stewards, servants, and little Mungo, to the lee corner of the cabin ; the soup salutes the tap- of one of us ; another receives a leg of pork j a third is presented with a piece of .'mutton." or ' beef; a couple of thickens or ducks fly to another; the pudding jumps nearly into the mouth of the next; and the potatoes are tossed in all directions about the deck of the cabin. One-saves his plate; another stops his knife and fork ; some cling to the table, thinking of only saving their person; one secures the' bottle another, half f.illen, holds up bis glass in one hand, and fixes himself fast to the chair with the other. .Chaos is renewed f everything is in motion; everything is in disorder and confusion. At the next roll of the ship, the servants, .staring with amazement, again fetch away, and, with extended arms, are tossed to the opposite side of the cabin, where they cling fast and remain fixed - as statues, afraid again to move ; and although, we are lash ed in the chair ourselves, it is with some difficulty we can maintain our seats. Plates, dishes, knives, forks, and' glasses clatter together in all the discord of the moment ; the steward and his boy, crawl ing upon their hands and knees after .the dancing potatoes, the flying fowls, or walk joints, are rolled over our feet; and all is disorder and confusion. The ship now be comes steady for a moment; the scattered parts of the dinner are collected, and those who have escaped sickness again attempt to eat. Some foreseeing all these accidents fix themselves in a corner upon the cabin Jeck, and take the plate between their knees, fancying themselves in security ; but -quickly they are tumbled in ridiculous pos tures, to the other side of the cabin, sprawl ing with outstretched limbs, like frightened crabs. Some having no calls of appetite, join not in feast, but lie swinging up and down in their cots or hammocks ; others remain rolling from side to side in their berths ; some cry out with sore bruises ; some from being wet with spray ; one calls for help ; another relieves his stomach from sickness ; while others lamenting only their . -dinner, loudly bewail the soup, the meat, and the pudding ; some abuse the helms man, others the ship, and others the sea ; while all join in a chorus of imprecations .upon the wind. , fLOODS IN MISSISSIPPI AND LOUISIANA. "1 he New Orleans "True Delta" learns from a gentleman who returned from Pike county, (Miss.) by way of Covington, (La..) that Pike county, Washington, St Tam many, and the adjoining parishes in Lou isiana have recently teen visited by one of the most destructive freshets that ever oc curred in the Southern country. - The rain commenced on Wednesday, the 20th ul timo, and continued without intermission for six days. For the first three days it seemed as if the fbod-gates of heaven were opened and that a second deluge was ap proaching, f On Thursday, the 2 1st ultimo. the Toposaw, Bouachutaana Mcv-ee's Creek, and ail the.principal streams in that section of the country, rose eleven leet in seven hours. . The bridges on all the prin cipal streams are earned away and - many mills destroyed. The only mill left stand ing on any stream in the section of country visited by the storm is-tbat of Brasfield, on Pearl Tiver. VAt Covinffton. the river, roso so high that passengers could step from the steamboat to the top of the principal receiving warehouse m that city. The de struction of th crops was fmmenso. Scar cely a stalk ,of corn or cotton was left stan ding. 'wS J. i f i - ? ; -! . ; ' - i CROCKERY CHINA GLASS WARE, &c, Ac GOULDS & ELLIOTT, IMPORTERS. 195 Pearl St. (near Maiden Lane) New York.

A correspondent writes, that in para graphs relative to the rcent election of lro risional Bishop, he sees the expression, 'low church' and 'high church' again made usa of. Ho desires an explanation of their original and present meaning. The infor mation sought might more property be ex pected in religious journals; and any at tempt at an answer, in a secular paper, must necessarily be brief and imperfect. Those who are familiar with the history of England, remember that King James II. was a Catholic, and in consequence of his troubles with his Protestant eubjects, was deposed, and was succeeded by Wil liam and Mary. Many members of ihe Church of England, who had taken the oath of allegiance to James, considered it unlawful to withdraw ihcir fealty to him during his lifetime, and refused to take the oath of allegiance to William and Mary. To such, a number of epithets were op plied among which were Nonjurors, Ja cobites and High-Churchmen. Non-jurors means literally persons unwilling lo take an oath. Jacobites is derived from Jaco bus, the Latin. for James. Hight-Church-men is an epithet applied more particular. Jy to those who reverence the authority of the Bishops and Clergy as of divine insti tution ; who adhere to the opinion that their Bishops may trace a regular succession from the Apostles down. High-Churchmen also adhere with great tenacity to the letter of the rubrics : and canons of the church. Low Cburmen are those who profess to hold religious forma and cere monies in low estimalion, and to holJ quite) independent of external observance, the spiritual value of Christian ordinance. Sancroft Archbishop of Cantcbury, anil a number of other Bishops, were deprived of their Sees in consequence of refusing to take the oath of allegiance to William and Mary. The followers of Sancroft were most numerous in Scotland, and their separation from the Church of England went no farther than as it affected their al legiance. The nonjuror a continued to pray for James and the Stuart family, and it was not until the accession of George III, that the cause of their separation from the Church of England, became removed. Of the four first Bishops of the Protes tant Episcopal Church in the United States, one (Biahop Seabary of Conn.) received consecration at the hands of the non-juring Bishops of Scotland, and the other three from the" Archbishop of Cantcbury, wha was tho guocessor in direct line of Tillot son, who succeeded the deposed Bancroft. There was now every prospect the feud which had disturbed the Church of Eng land for a century, would be extended to this country.- By the exertion of wise and good men, conspicuous among whom was tne late Bishop Parker of Massachusetts, such a calamity was prevented. A Bish op who had received consecration from tne Archbishop of Canterbury, was induced to unite with one who had received consecra tion from the? non-juring Bishops in the consecration of Dt. Bass the first J-aop - of Massachusetts. Tha terms hh?h church" an.l "low church" still retain their original meaning and have decided adherents in ttis coon try. N. Y. Express.
