LOSS OF THE STEAMER REINDEER
AND ALL ON BOARD.

Masters Of vessels which arrived at this
port yesterday bring the sad intelligence Of
the total wreck Of the Canadian steamer
Reindeer, Capt. Patterson. and the loss Of
all but two Of the lives on board. The
Reindeer ran between this port and Mon
treal. She cleared from this port on Fri.
day the 18th inst, with $4,000 bushels OF
wheat. consigned to parties in Montreal
On Monday night, when off Great Point au
Sauble, on the Michigan shore, she was met
by heavy gale. and Capt Patterson find
ing tnat she would not weather 1t, hoisted
all sail and headed for the shore. The mo.
ment she touched the ground the steamer
commenced going to pieces, and owing to
the distance from the beach and violence Of
the surf. only two persons succeeded in
reaching the land These are supposed to
be fremen. All the others were lost. Its
thought the steamer had but few if any pas
sengers on board. The officers and crew
numbered about twenty two men. We are
unable to give any Of their names, except
Capt. Patterson.
The Reindeer was an old boat, both in
age and model She was rated about $50
tons, British, equal TO about 200 Americana
Her value will probably not exceed twenty
thousand dollars.-Chicago Times "A.
