Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - December 3, 1875, Winnipeg, Manitoba Roy ton on the Captain Boyton s great swim Down the Rhine from Mayence to Colorigh turns of to have been a Good Deal of a pleasure trip Paul started from Mayence on Tho 12th ult in the presence of a vast crowd gathered t see him off and through ver water to Biebrich where he had larger audience than at Mayence. Ilo a welcomed at intervals along the Shore a the applause of school children assembled to see him pass and at Niedo Walluf he a presented with a flask of Cognac by Thi resident of one of the most charming Villas an american whose name has not beet preserved. The Brandy appears to hav lad a patriotic effect upon the Noble Cap Tain and we Are told with Pride How a Meisenheim a party of eight ladies whom the american Consul had informed of Paul s exploits rowed out to the Middle oath Stream and gave him a rousing hip hip Hurrah followed by an invitation to Lane and Dine. After being coaxed with due ceremony the Captain of course assented and was so charmed with his hosts Anc their champagnes that he did not set swin again until very late in the Day and at Nightfall had got no further than mrs. Norton s fair Bingen on the Rhine Here the Captain spent the night and Al Tei bracing up with a Glass of Scharl achber Ger he set out the following Day in goo i spirits and during the Day had the pleasure of receiving a blast from the Horn of the Warden in the Castle Rheinstein. Tarrying the second night at Coppard he dropped Down the River again on the morning of the third Day bearing a Garland of Flowers on his Flagstaff. And engers both received the Honor of his patronage and at Neuweld he dined with Tho burgomaster. The evening proved to be charming with Moonlight and the voyager smoking his pipe and singing did not make another halt until he reached Remagen where at 9 o clock he supped with a party of gentle men and Jady residents. At Midnight he was in the water once More and striking out for Bonn which was passed at 2 o clock and arriving at Surah at Dawn he went ashore and ordered breakfast. This having been despatched Paul plunged into the Rhino for the last time and reached g of Onge at 10 o clock the precise time at which he had telegraphed to should arrive. Lis reception appears to have been of an enthusiastic character As May Well be imagined when we the adventurous fellow had swam 400 Miles in three Days and sampled the wines and Beers of nearly every town along the route integrity Young men should be deeply impressed Mth the vast importance of principles and of cultivating those habits which will secure them the Confidence and the esteem of the Wise and Good a Young Man May be unfortunate he May be poor and penniless but if he possess unbending integrity and unwavering purpose to do what is honest and just he will have friends and patrons whatever might be the embarrassments and exigences into which he is thrown. The Young May thus possess a capital of which none of the misfortunes and calamities of life can deprive them. Have known men who have been Sud Denly reduced from affluence to poverty by some overwhelming misfortune which Thuv could neither foresee nor prevent. To Day they were prosperous to Morrow Ever earthly Prospect was blighted and every thing in their future aspect of life dark an gloomy. Their business was gone the prospects they feel that All is gone but they have a Rich treasure that nothing can take away. They have integrity c character and this gives them influx once raises up friends furnishes therr with pecuniary Aid with which to comment life once More under auspicious Circum stances. We cannot impress too strongly upon the minds of our Young men the importance o abstaining from everything which Shock the moral sensibilities wounds their con science and has a tendency to weaken tha Nice sense of Honor and integrity so indispensable to a Good character. O character who Ever possessed it tha did not derive untold advantages from it it is better than is More Vallabh than diamonds and All the precious stones and yet every Man May possess it. The poorest May have it and no Power on Earth can wrest it from them. Young men pm integrity of character above All earthly Gams. J what Grant says about the third to term. I Springfield Republican.
