DETAILS

The wreck of the steamship Eton, when voyaging
from Valptriso, has already been reported, The
Panama steamer, just arrived, supplies the following
harrowing details :—The vessel was steaming ten
knots an hour when she struck on a rock, one mile
north of ('heaps river. Instantly a terrible panic
prevailed on lsisrd and discipline was impossible.
Full fifty pasisengeni threw themselves into the lifeboat,
which broke from the davits, and all but eleven
persons were tossed out and drowned. The eleven,
unable to get the boat clear or on to the steamer,
remained an hour, until an immense wave broke the
tackle, and after five hours' drifting they were saved.
A small boat saved three of the ffew, and seventy
persons including many women, took refuge in a wave-
washed rock. There they remained without any
proviKione or shelter, and i,wing to violence id waves
no help could he rendered, although scores of hands, one
villas were in view. Hour after hour one or another
WM swept off by the waves, and a boat which made a
daring attempt to rescue the sufferers succeeded in
picking up two or three, but the others had the horror
of seeing their numbers gradually thinned by death
until only twenty remained. That evening one
gigantic wave was seen to sweep over the rock, and
not one person remained. Among those who thus
perished were Mr. Bates, of Cisjuimbo, and his two
daughters, who were returning from England, where
they had been educating for ten years. Over 130 lives
were sacrificed, and at the latest advice the bodies
were being daily washed ashore on the mainland. A
Chilian war sessel had been despatched to the spot.
A court of inquiry was held at the British Consulate,
Valpariso, and the finding was the Eton must have
gut to where she was wrecked by some sudden devia-
tion of the compasses caused by lightning, or by
sudden tidal wave or current, and that no blame
could be attached to the master and officers most of
whom were unhappily drowned. The court recom-
mended that the commanders of all steam vessels in
obscure weather should steer a safer course than that
usually adopted. The great lows of life that had
occurred they thought might be attributed to the lack
of life-saving apparatus on beard.

EPPS.A COCOA. GRATEFUL AND COMFORTING.—
"By a thorough knowledge of the natural law,
which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition,
and by a careful application of the fine properties of
well-selected cocoa, Mr. Epps has pqivided our break-
fast tables with a delicately flavoured beverage which
may save us many heavy doctor's bill. It is by the
judicious use if such articles of diet that a constitu-
tion may be gradually built up until strong enough to
resist every tendency to ilisease. Hundreds of subtle
maladies are floating around us ready to attack
wherever there is a weak point. We may escape
many a fatal shaft by keeping ourselves well f,rtified
with pure lihmil and a properly nourished frame."

HOLLOwAYS OINTMENT AND PILIA.--A frequent CAW of
gout and rheumatism is the inflammatory 'Ante of the
blood, attended with bad digestion and general debility.
A few do,es of these Pills, taken in time, are an effectual
preventive against gout and rheumatism, but anyone who
has an attack of either should use Holloway's Ointment
also, the powerful properties of which, combined with the
effects of the Pills, must infallibly effect a cure. These
Pills act directly on the blood, which they purify and
improve: they also regulate the secretions, and give tone
to the stomach, and thus the whole system is invigorated,
and put into a condition which enables it to throw off
disease or check its approach.
