Terrible Disaster on Lake Erie.

The London Prototype of the 12th August states that on
the previous Wednesday the propeller Racine, one of the
Western Transportation Company's line of lake steamers,
was burned to the water's edge, about 30 miles south of
Port Stanley. Twenty-seven persons were all that escaped
alive out of 40, the number of crew and passengers on board
at the time of the sad occurrence. Racine was at the time of
the disaster bound fur Buffalo, with a full cargo of corn, oats,
and high wines, and a few passengers, besides a full crew.
At 2.45 on the morning named, the lookout observed a
bright flame burst out about midships. All hands were called
on deck, the vessel turned to land, and the pumps quickly
manned ; but, despite the efforts of both crew and passen-
gers, who worked with a determination inspired by the
desperate nature of their position, the fire gained rapidly,
and all hopes of staying its ravages ware quickly dispelled
by the fearful alacrity with which it communicated from
one point b the other of the doomed vessel. The lifeboats
were ordered to be lowered, and an attempt made to reach
the shore. The first of these, under command of the second
mate, Mr, J. Monaghan, and occupied by 5 deck hands and
4 passengers—names unknown—was placed in a position to
be lowered, but, unfortunately, one of the ropes was
cut before the other, and the occupants pitched into
the water. The speed at which the vessel was going pre-
vented any end being made to rescue them, before the
screw propelling the vessel had engulfed crew, boat, and
all in the vortex caused by its revolutions. One of the
poor fellows was afterwards seen in the water, cut
completely in two, but none of the others were visible.
The captain, thinking that land could be made before they
would be compelled to leave, still stood to his vessel. with
the remainder of the crew and passengers, although their
position was growing every moment more critical. A
number of barrels of high wines which were on deck were
thrown overboard, but some of them were broken in the
effort, and their contents becoming strewn along the deck,
served as fuel to the flame. This reduced the draught of
the vessel from 12ft to Oft 3in, however, and gave new
cause for hope to the almost despairing crew. At this
rime the lug Avon, of Montreal, observing the condition
of the Racine, made towards her, and fortunately arrived
in time to save 27 of the crew slid passengers,

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIo Ray's Pills.--Good Diges-
tion.—Holloway's pills are universally acknowledged to be
the safest, speediest, and best corrective for indigestion.
Loss of appetite, acidity, flatulency, and nausea are a few of
the inconveniences which aro remedied with ease by these
purifying pills. They strike at the root of all abdominal
ailments, they excite in the stomach a proper secretion of
gastric juice, and regulate the action of the liver, promoting
in that organ a copious supply of pure wholesome bile so
necessary for digestion. These pills remove all distention
and obstruction, and from their harmless composition are
peculiarly well adapted for delicate persons and young
children; whilst casting out impurities, these excellent
pills strengthen the system and give muscular tone.

BOROUGH HOP.

quality of the crop being very flee.

CRICKE T,

ONR ARM Y. ONE LEG.—The weather proved very fine
yesterday, and this burlesque match upon genuine cricket
attracted a very large number of spectators, upwards of
' three thousand persons, including a number of the fair sex,
being present, a complete ring on the large ground at Ken-
nington-oval being formed. Soon after 12 o'clock the One-
Leg side entered on their second innings, being in a mino-
rity of 17 of their opponents. The innings finished for 136,
leaving the One-Arm 120 to get to win. Time, however,
did not permit the game to be played out, and the match
was left drawn, the One-Arm scoring 112, with one wicket
to fall. The amusement excited during the play was can.
siderable. Imagine a one-leg man attempting to catch or
run after a ball; he breaks his leg (a wooden one), and the
whole of the spectators are convulsed with laughter, which
is increased when one of his opponents picks him up and
carries him on his back to the retiring room. The veterans
themselves seemed to enjoy the fun as well as the spectators,
for when attempting to make a run they would throw
themselves down, and endeavour with the bat to reach
over the popping crease, which convulsed the assemblage
with laughter. In the course of the afternoon the children
of the Licensed Victuallers' School again attended with
their band, Governor Harris, of the Incorporated Society,
looking after them as a guardian. Too much praise cannot
be awarded to Mr F. Hill, host of the Surrey Tavern, who
provided tea, cake, bread and butter, and fruit for the chil-
dren (numbering 140) on both days.

been unable to secure the completion of the line in time for
the summer traffic of the current year. This unexpected
delay had chiefly arisen from the great difficulty ex-
perienced by the contractors in obtaining the requisite num-
ber of hands. There was, however, no doubt that the line
would be ready for opening in two or three weeks. The
Government inspector had been over the line, and it was
understood that some alterations would be required. The
engineer stated in his report that the Government inspector
had remarked that he had never been over a line of the same
length in which the works were so numerous. The addi-
tions to be made would not delay the opening beyond the
second week in September. The expenditure amounted to
£217,558, leaving a balance against the company of £8,961.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report,
said the directors felt disappointed that the line had not
been opened before. The delay was entirely attributable to
the scarcity of labour, He knew of nothing now that could

occasion more than one or two week's delay in the opening
of the line. Next summer their hotel would be completed,
and he believed that the passenger traffic would be com-
mensurate with the accommodation provided on the rail-
way. It was his opinion that when that traffic was fairly
developed it might be enlarged to any extent. The beat
assurance which he could give that the directors were not
alarmed at any additional cost which might have to be in-
curred was that they had doubled the amount of their shares.
Their prospects of remuneration had increased in a propor-
tion far exceeding that of any little extra outlay.
Mr I. FLETCHER, deputy chairman, seconded the motion,
which was unanimously carried.
After the re-election of three directors and an auditor,
the proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to the
chairman and directors.

MARK-LANE.

Only a moderate supply of English wheat was received
fresh up to our market to-day. The demand, however,
was by no means active; nevertheless, prices both of red
and white qualities ruled firm.
The market was well supplied with most descriptions of
foreign wheat. Generally speaking, the trade ruled quiet,
yet no change took place in prices comparea with Monday.
Floating cargoes of grain were in but moderate request
at late rates.

The supply of barley on sale was moderate. The trade
for most qualities sold firm at full quotations.;
The malt trade was steady at late rates.
With oats the market was extensively supplied ; the de-
mand, however, was of full average extent, and the recent
advance in prices was supported.
Beans and peas ruled firm at quite previous rates.
The flour trade was steady at full prices.

BOROUGH HOP.

The plantation accounts are MO;favourable, and the
demand for hops rules heavy, In prices, however, com-

place. New hops are selling at £6 10s to £9 per cwt., th
quality of the crop being very fine.

down the river, when off the Battery Point, Greenock, she
ran down a small rowing boat, one of the occupants of wh;ch,
Daniel 31'Donald, joiner and blockmaker, Greenock, was

thought they could easily pass her. The steamer, however,
struck the small boat amidships and cut her in two. Mr
Fleming and the boy were picked up by a boat lowered

[ADVERTISEMENT.j—HoIIo say's Pills.--Good Diges-
tion.—Holloway's pills are universally acknowledged to be
the safest, speediest, and best Corrective for indigestion.
Loss of appetite, acidity, flatulency, and nausea are a few of
the inconveniences which are remedied with ease by these
purifying pills. They strike at the root of all abdominal
ailments, they excite in the stomach a proper secretion of
gastric juice, and regulate the action of the liver, promoting
in that organ a copious supply of pure wholesome bile 80
necessary for digestion. These pills remove all distention
and obstruction, and from their harmless composition are
peculiarly well adapted for delicate persons and young
children; whilst casting out impurities, these excellent
pills strengthen the system and give muscular tone.

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK;
Within the past few days there has been a
gradual increase in the inquiry for monetary assist-
ance, and the rates have consequently been tend-
ing in an upward direction. This morning the
brokers have been charging 71 per cent. for the
very best description of short dated commercial
paper, and there are still symptoms that higher
quotations may yet prevail,
A further sum of £5,000 in gold was taken into
the Bank yesterday.
The Seine, which left this morning with the West
Indian mails, conveyed £11,480 in specie.
The Norfolk has arrived from Meibournecwith
£31,300 in gold.
The return issued by the Bank of England for
the past week is less satisfactory than was ex-
pected, notwithstanding the recent large purchase
of gold, and the small demand for discounts at that
establishment. Subjoined are the particulars

least change, while the notes in circulation have
been increased by £26,700, the treasury balances
£104,000, and the current accounts £466,700.
The Share list of Hewett and Co. will close on

During the last two days there has been rather
less animation in the Foreign and Colonial Produce
Markets. Sugar has been dull, but without change
as regards valuer. The operations in tea have been
suspended uatil the public sales, which will com-
mence on Tuesday next. In rice a moderate business
has been reported, while full prices are obtained for
coffee. In the Tallow Market, however, there has
been a reaction, prices having given way for both
present and for ward delivery.
