Another Survivor From the Bnbnmn. A Snllor who escaped on nn Icebox - box From tlio Foundered Stonmor Arrives nt this Point. Now Yotk Tribune. At work on tlio dock linuling ropoa niut furling soils with the otlior eon- non on the hrignntino Pearl , which irrivoil from Port Spain ycatorday , wna Nnpolein Mathurin , nnotlior of the survivors of the steamship Bnha- inn , which foundered elF Onpo Hat- terns on Fobruiry 10. Mtxthurin is n naibr , and is about five foot ton inch es in height , witli a.clean shaven andy \y ll browned face. With the execu tion of a badly salivated mouth , ho bore no evidences of his hard sttngi'lu of six days on an impromptu lifo-raft. "Want my story ? Why , there is noth ing interesting about mo or my expo * rionco , " Mathurin said , in reply to a Tribune reporter's question. "I nm here , staunch and true ; just wait un til I got through with those ropoa and sails , and I will toll you about it. I must give a hand to these follows , for I was ncvor so well treated In my life as I have boon by Captain Brighton nnd his crow since they took mo off of my ico-box a week ago. " Just before reaching the I'iorropont stores , in Brooklyn , and making the vessel fast in the dock ahead ot the ship Olonmorng which landud the thirteen other survivors of the Baha ma here n wcok ago , Malhurin be gan ; "Thoro's no need of my repeat- 1111 ; what you have already published about the vcssol taking a heavy sea , which carried away the bulwarks , the deck houses , filled the vessel half full of water , put out the fires , and throw the steamer over on her sido. When the two boats were lowered and wo were all told to got in , I saw that they wore filled beyond safety , and that if I got in , the second cook nnd n passenger - songer named Mona , who were atill on board the vessel , would have fol lowed and wo nil would have boon lost. I concluded to rontain on board and take my chances. The captain's boat had got about 200 yards from the vessel when a great sea caught her nnd she capsized. I saw only two men niloat afterward , and they swam toward the steamer. As thoy. came alongside I throw n rope ever the side nnd hauled ono of thorn on board ; ho was Charles Smith , ono ot the sailors Then wo hauled the other follow on board in the same way. Ho was John Peterson , another sailor. Wo did not think that the vessel would go down so soon afterward , or wo would have made preparations for our safety before daylight. But the great green seas broke ever almost continuously , ' and each ono threat ened to carry her under. About half an hour afterward when I was amid ships in the gangway I heard n great rumbling , which , I suppose , must have boon the explosion of the boil ers , for immediately afterward the stern ot the vessel sank under , I ran forward and began to cutaway the lashings on ono of the gangway ladders , but before I could cut away the second lashing the vcssol went down , and it seemed a long while af terward before I roao to the surface. I swam as best I could against th mighty Hoas , each ono tilting my breath away , and it must have boon three-quarters of nn hour that I was tossed about in this way before I caught hold of any wr akago. Then I caught one of the spars. This helped to buoy mo up , for I was nearly exhausted hausted , but as it was tossed from ono sea to another it would roll from un der ino , and then I'had hard work to , catch it again. As soon as daylight broke I saw a bark in the distance , which was heading in the direction of where I was , but she soon changed her course and went out of sight. After floating about for two hours or more , I let go of the spar nnd caught hold of a piece of the gangway of the vcsaei upon which was Gaudrioso Bikner , the porter , and ono of these who left the ship in the captain'sboat. Almost the first thing Bikipr said was , 'It's no use trying to save our selves ; wo might as well drown now as any timo. ' I replied : 'I know , but lot's hang as long as wo can , and die together it wo must. ' The rioxt in stant iSiknor was washed off by a sea. I c tiled to him and , asked if he was nlivo. Ho c.naworod that ho was , and than disappeared. I saw no moro of him. A litt'o ' while after this I saw right near me the ico-box of the ves sel , a box nbi > ut twelve toot wide and five icot square on the ends. I swam to it , arm found it comparatively comfortable. I was completely ex hausted , but was afraid to remove my clothing. But I took oft mv heavy boots and threw thoni aw iy. I wus almost frozen , too , it was HO cold. After being on my now raft an hour or ho I saw throe pilot-biscuits float ing near and picked them up. As they were saturated I put them inside ot my shirts and next to my body to dry. Soon afterward a heavy -sea , which came near sweeping me overboard - board , carried away two of my crack era nnd to save the other I ate it up. I laid down on my raft and dropped asleep. When I nvroko I saw n vessel sol in the distance , about two miles off , and I took off my 'jumper' and waved it ns n signal. As uhe huadod toward mo my heart leaped with joy I thought I would soon 'bo rescued ; but the vessel ' -oon afterward disap porred and'I , was again loft in ds spair. "As night came on I opened the two doors of the ice-box and lay down on thorn. As the BOH had moderated the water washed under them , and was as comfortable us auy ono could have been under the circumstances. I went to sleep and slept soundly , but when I woke I thought my limbs were paralyzed. But I got on my feet and jumped up and down nnd was soon all right again. I then had a craving thirst , and could only Batisfy it with salt water , which tended to increase my thirst , The eocond day passed without incident , as did also the third day , boy6nd Boeing a vessel on each day , which I was uimblo to Kignal , On the fourth duy it was stormy with ii ha d rain , but this was welcome for [ caught quantities of rain water in my oil cloth coat and drank it. I toll you it tasted good , The fifth day was pleasant , but fearfully cold. I saw another tailing voesol but could not attract her nttentoi. ! I did not suffer in the least from hunger ; in fact I hud no cravings for food. What I wanted wis water. On the sixth day I saw the briguntiiiOjPearl and succeeded in making her crow sea my signal nnd aho bore down for mo. When she got near me a boat was lowered and I was picked up , As soon as I touched the dock I made n rush ior the 'scut- tie-butt' nnd began to drink. After I had drank n quart or moro the Stew ard stopped mo and furnished mo with n gallon or so of codec , which I rel ished. It jvas thj best cofl'eo 1 ever drank. Then the captain got mo sumo food and the Bailers furiiifhetl mo with dry clothes nnd I was tieated like a nabob. And here I nm. I wish I had thnt ico-box just for a rel ic. " As soon na the Pearl toiiohcd the wharl in Brooklyn a representative of Ouiorbridgo it Co . ngontn of the Ba hama , met Mathurin nnd offered him every thing that ho desired for his com fort. Ho * as tnknn to the agents' ofllco , whore ho said that ho wanted employment ns soon as possible. Out- orbridgo & Co. sent word to Mathur- in's family in Quebec of his safety. . .

Moro than ono western editor hns prostituted bin columns nnd stultified liimsolf by indorsing the decision of Judge Allen of the California superior court that the opinions of anonupapor nro ns properly the subjects of tiallic ns the merchandise of a trader. It is truly astonishing that mon thus bra- only ndvortising their shame em re tain any measure of public confidence and support ; yet the snmo anomaly is soon in nil professions , tholaw , med icine and the ministry , Edward Ever ett o Halo said impressively nnd well nt the funeral of Dola-io A , Goddard , late editor of The boston Advertiser , that his "wna the function which , of all functions which modern society has created , is the moat important , n function which may bo prostituted to the very worst and may bo olov.ited to the very best. " Happily the profes sion of journalism is rallying to its service mon true , loynl nnd broiul who have como to stay. What their ido-il has bccomo und something of the diffi culties which hedge them about have been sympathetically portrayed by Hoy. Mr. Fo > tc , pastor of the late Editor Goddard : Think for a moment what it ia which is demanded of him who stands in such n post of duty. Like the pilot his hand always on the helm , ho watches the atmospheric current of opinion and fooling , und the tides of events , na they all'ect the public good. An unresting fidelity holds him con- Btautto the most exacting form of proii sioTnal duty , with little respite for health und none for pleasure. It is for him to guard against the schemers who seek to gain the public car , to protect the ignorant nnd the innocent , to lift journalism from the function of a moro gatherer of news which tends to make the world it vast whispering galloiy in which the mon strous and distorted echoes of countless - loss matters which had best sleep in oblivion reverberate , to that of n wise and just organ of public opinion , giv ing clearness and balance to the gene ral mind on the ono hand , and on the other , speaking the general mind of the weightiest part of the community with n forcu and character that make it hoard and heeded , in the councils of the nation. To do such a work at all demands rare gifts of intellect and culture , of courage and tact. To do it worthily demands how much of truth and of wisdom , bravery to fight a wrong , insight to see the path of practicable duty , gentleness in deal ing with opponents , magnanimity in judging motivns , the absolute elimi nation of personal und selfish consid erations ; above nil , a self-abnegation. n merging of self in the truth und which is the very spirit of the disci ple of him who is truth itself , who hath enid , "Ho that looaoth his life for my sake shall find it. " * * * Mr. Goddard had the highest ideal of his duty in that place , and1 day by day ho put that ideal into the drudgery of a most wearing toil. It wus uaid by a noble and true man , a son of this old church I moan Samuel J. May that the custom of giving "a charge" to young mon entering the ministry ought to bo extended to other callings also , nnd to none more than to that of the editor ; a charge to avoid the tomptutioiiB of t imp-serving and aulf- aooking , of cowardice and dishonesty , to bo trub to duty , to use the grout opportunity of influence in behalf of the oppressed nnd the forsaken against all injustice and wrong. I have often thought that such n charge as this our friend heard ifi the depths of his own conscience , and , an ho heard , obeyed , with as loyal a consecration as any knight of old when ho buckled on his armor.
