TERRIBLE SCENES AT SHIPwRECK.-The
Liverpool papers furnish full accounts of the
wreck of the ship Tayleur, on the Irish coast,
at the island Lamby, on the slSt of January,
having $40 souls on board, of whom near 400
were lost. One of the passengers saved, thus
describes the scene:
A raft was constructed on which great
numbers of persons embarked, but it was drift
ed against the rocks and upset, when all on it
perished. A rope was then conveyed on shore
by one Of the swimmers, and about one hun
dred attempted to gain the rocks by clinging to
it, when the vessel suddenly fell over on her
side, which sackened one end of the rope and
caused the entire Of them to let go their hold.
The whole of them were drowned. The cap
:an, whose name WAS Noble, was saved, but the
only part of his dress that he landed in, was a
flannel shirt. The surgeon of the ship, who
had his wife and child on board, attempted to
swim ON shore with his child on his back, and
supporting his lady with one arm while he swan
with the other; the three, however, unfortunately
perished. One lady had $4,000 in bank notes
sewed in her stays; she offered e., 900 to any
one who would save her life, but in vain She
also was drowned. A child of five months ole
is saved, and both parents are drowned. A
German emigrant rescued this child's life by
bearing it in his teeth from the wreck to the
shore. Only seven women are saved the rest
1877 in number, are drowned There are now
upwards of sixty dead bodies on the island, anc
200 survivors,"

cause, were solicitous indeed, but could only

On the evening of the sad occurrence at
the tavern, Fannie was sitting with her pa

and told that Andre was killed. She fain-
ted Immediately and fell into her mothers
arms. Soon she recovered but tainted again.
Thus she spent the night. Her parents now
knew the cause of her paleness and sadness
but vainly did they attempt to console her.
Next morning Mr.. Harold sent to the tav-
ern to get the details Of the murder and
thus soon learned that the rumor was false.
This was indeed saving intelligence to Fan

ately and by the consent of her mother sent
Andre note requesting him to come again.
That was the letter he gave to Percy lie

Spring Wheat.

Messrs. Editors:-Will you have the
kindness to answer me the following ques-
tions through your valuable paper, the
Country Gentleman? What kind of soil
is required to raise Spring Wheat (a) Will
limestone soil answer? How many bush
els are required to be sown upon the acre,
and at what time should it be sown? (b)
And how many bushels are generally rails
ed to the acre? (c) By answering the above
questions you will confer favor upon
A NEW SUBSCRIBER, Easton Pa.
(a) The same soil that will bring good
Winter wheat or good barley-what is u.s.
ually termed limestone soil, will doubtless
answer well.
(b) About bushel and half seed should
be sown per acre, as early in Spring as it is
possible to get the soil in good condition.
(c) Twenty bushels per acre is fair crop.
