fog continued to be very dense.
/ then asked the boats crew whether they
were willing to be governed by me. and they
unanimously assented to it, and l was put in
complete command of both boats. We were
| then about 60 miles s. Il. of Cape Race
DeeIning it my duty, for the safety Of all, to
take the nearest course for the land, and after
| pulling at the oars for AZ hours, with nothing
| to guide us but the run of the sea, which
took to be heayng from the southwark, and
| in thick fog which lasted all the time, we
reached Broad Cove some II miles north Of
| Cape Race,
We then proceeded by land to Renews,
| which we reached on Friday last.
| l there obtained and took charge of a small
schooner, which was hired by the purser and
myself, and proceeded Immediately in search
| of the wreck or her boats. We cruised round
in strong gale of wind from the northeast,
but could find no traces of the ship or her
| boats.
| sent word to Capt. Leigh, of the City of
| Philadelphia, acquainting him with the catas-
trophe, and he, | am informed, sent off two
vessels which he had employed about his own
| ship, as she lay stranded. Mr.. Allen Good.
| ridge, of Renews, also sent away vessel on
| Saturday evening, but she has not yet re-
! turned.
| 1t is with the greatest regret that have to
| report that no trace of the Arctic or her other
boats could be found; but as there were very
many vessels in the neighborhood where the
disaster occurred, it is not at all improbable
that many lives may have been saved No
doubt, however, is left in my mind as to the
loss of the steamship Arctic.
The unknown steamer which was in collis-
ion with the Arctic, undoubtedly the
| English propeller Cleopatra, Capt. Salt, which
sailed from Quebec Sept. "a, for Liverpool.
| She had on board the list Regiment of High
| land Light Infantry, and there were probably
| over 600 persons on board, including the
! wives and families of the soldiers.
| Still Later from the Arctic.
| The fate of the propeller and the other five
boats of the Arctic is not positively known.

Doors AND SHoEs.-The New York Ex-
press says, eve notice an active home trade
demand for all descriptions, and the market
continues firm but for California and Aus
tralia there is no inquiry worth mentioning
The stock is quite light, and manufacturers
are restricting the production, in view of the
upward tendency in the prices of sole leather
the low rates which the manufactured goods
command leaving but small margin for profit.
There is something doing all the while for the
Canadian markets, and after the Reciprocity
Treaty takes effect, this department Of trade,
it is believed, will be materially benefited
