Frightful Disaster and Loss of Sc Lives.


The Monas Herald of Wednesday last, gives
the particulars of the stranding and subsequent
explosion, by gunpowder, Of the brig Lily, $50
tons. The vessel in question left the Mersey on
Thursday week, under the command of Capt. ] ohm
Owens, for the southwest coast of Africa. The
cargo consisted of about fifty tons of gunpowder,
twenty puncheons of rum, quantity of arms
and some bale goods, containing articles of barter
on the coast. The vessel was driven by the yo-
lence of the storm to the Sound of the Calf of
Man. and despite all the efforts of the crew, about
ii o'clock the Lily was stove Kitterland Island
which lies between the Island of the Calf of Man
and the main land of the Isle of Man With
desperate effort most of the crew thirteen in
number) reached the rocks by the aid of the boats
The waves beat iuriouSlY upon the wreck and the
rocks. Capt Owens and three of the crew got
on the ledge of a rock, from which two of the
seamen sprang to the land; but the captain, in
attempting to do the same, was drowned. The
cook and two lads also met with watery grave.

grocer and shipbroker of Port St. Mary, being
sug-agent for Llyods repaired to the wreck with
thlrty-one men, to see what could be saved. At
quarter before eight, a violent shock was felt
throughout the southern district of the island;
and sheet of fire and pillar of smoke were seen
to be hurled into the air, hundreds of feet high
trem the wreck. 1t seems that large portion of
the powder was placed so high in the vessel that

fishing and other nautical pursuits. Thirty-two
besides the five of the crew that were lost on
Monday were killed, leaving twenty three widows
and seventy-th fatherless children.

supposed by many persons, to have been an earth

mains; but fragments of wood, iron, copper, guns,
and parts of human bodies are strewn around the
country for miles, 1t is not probable that the
cause of the explosion will ever be correctly as

fired by light from the pipe of some of the men
who were smoking on board the vessel.

Others are often at fault. Children have as many

Rich Disclosures. The Boston Chronicle,
the organ Of the opponents of the Liquor Law, is
thrown into great iue, by the laying upon the Ia

How TO TREAT A WIFE.-First, get wife;
secondly, be patient. You may have great trials
and perpleXities in your business with the world;
but do not therefore, carry to your home cloudy
or contracted brow. Yeur wife may have many
trials, which, though of less magnitude, may
have been as hard to bear. A kind, conciliating
word, tender look, will do wonders in chasing
from her brow all clouds of gloom. You encoun-
ter your difficulties in the open air, famed by
heavens olbreezes; bnt your wife is often shut
in from these healthful influences, and her health
fails, and her spirits lose their elasticity. Bnt oh!
bear with her; she has trials and sorrows to which
you are stranger, but which your tenderness can
deprive of all their anguish. Notice kindly her
little attentions and efforts to promote your COM
fort Do not take them all as a matter of
course, and pass them by, at the same time
being very sure to observe any omission of
what you may consider duty to YOU Do
not treat her with indifference, if you would
not scar and palsy her heart, which, watered by
kindness, would, to the latest day of your exist
enee, throb with sincere and constant affection
Sometimes yield your wishes to her. She has pre-
ferences as strong as you, and it may be just as
trying to yield her choice as to you. Do YOU find
it hard to.yield sometimes? Think you it is not
difficult for her to give up a2oays? If you never
yield to her wishes, there is danger that she will
think you are selfish, and care only for yourself
and with such feelings she cannot love as she
might. Again, show yourself manly, so that your
wife can look up to you, and feel that you will act
nobly, and that she can confde in your iudg-
ment.
