" At tea on the morning of the 23rd, the day after the
Clyde left Quebec, she was abreast of Cape de Monts, distant
about seven miles, whence Mae took • fresh deperture, steering
seat for the west point of Anticosti. During the forenoon

towards night, and it reined pretty heavily wetly in A thick
drizzle. Darkness set in without the land being made ; but
calculating the course Mewed end the distance nut, the
position of the steamer wee, sliest midnight, supposed
to be near the entrance of the Canadian Channel, sad
on the Antimul side of it. The ship's head wee then
hauled Lip gradually to the south-east; but she lied only
on that course • few minutes when she struck

bells, 10.30 a.m., bad just struck, the look-out man had re-
ported "Airs well!" and the aquae was watching on the
bridge, when at. 0:111COA•i00, 'A bleb WAS very severe, was

dently sinking. The boats were manned and lowered, and
the pampers peened into them without confusion or
diemay, every one beteg placed in temporary salty
before the captain left the week. Within twenty
minutes after she struck her stern was entirely under
water and the cabin full of water, but so slight wee
the feeling of alum, upecially among the culla passenger.,
that they were settially packing up their clothes, and get-
ting out their money against emergency, and it was not
until she made • final lurch to port, filling that side of the
cabin, that they began to ',insider their personal eafety.
All being pecked in the boats, a supply of provisione and
water was put on board of each, and they lay off the
wreck until daylight. When it was revealed, through a still
mist, the position of the ship was at once apparent, the low
craggy rocks and islets of Paniquettis being visible all
round.- The captain at once beaded the line of boat. to the
lifeboat, and by keeping clue order and steering to the
north, in the course of two hours made the main land, but
