Terrible Disaster on the British
Coast.
300 LIVES REPORTED LOST.

MONTREAL, Nov. I've are in re-
ceip. of he Liverpool Daily Post Of
the 9th ult., from R. Stuart, Esq, the
Liverpool agent of the Associated Press,
who had not time to embrace the follow
ing in this regular dispatch transmitted
from Father Point
The public will learn this morning
with overwhelming grief that the splen-
did vessel, the Royal Charles, was to-
tally-lost Yesterday, in Mufa Red Wharf
Bav. near Bangor. The melancholy in
telIigence which reached US late last
night was brief, but we fear only too
true. Of upwards of 400 persons on
board, only ten are said to have been
saved. There is some hope, however,
that this is an exaggeration. Under any
circumstances. the loss of life, it is to be
feared. has been immense. The Royal
Charles, it was supposed, had about halt
a million of gold on board. When the
disaster took place is not known, for the
telegraph had ceased to work, and the
storm had been so severe and destructive
along the coast yesterday that the Chest
er and Birkenhead Railway had been
destroyed in two places.
At Penmannowe, twenty dead bodie:
had been washed ashore. The Bay II
which the catastrophe has occurred il
two or three miles to the westward o
Putin Island, in An8lesea, and six Oh
seven miles to the northwest Of Beau
maris. 1t has a shallow, sandy beacl
for several miles, with promontories a
each end of the Bay. The countr!
around is wild and few houses are about.
The name Of the steamer lost Is IN
doubtedIy Royal Charter not Roya

PLANTING PoTATOEs IN THE FALL.
Mr.. z. Z. Bundy, of Oxford, Chen
ango County, n Y, writes to the Gen
esee Farmer that he plants his potatoes
in the fall, and obtains larger crops, and
larger, earlier and better favored pota-
toes than when planted in the spring
His method OF planting is as follows;
Select piece of dry ground, pre-
pare it as for spring planting, any time
in the fall when the ground is in good
order, taking care to plant the potatoes a
little deeper than in the spring planting.
Throw a shovel full of coarse manure
upon, or, still better, into each hill; or,
better still, cover the surface of the
ground with a coat of straw, where mice
are not too plenty. The straw helps to
protect; the potatoes scarcely need hoe
ing or blowing
Mr.. B. says he has raised potatoes in
this way for several years past, and they
are invariably free from the rot, and al
least two weeks earlier and two or three
sizes larger than in spring.
