VESSEL WRECKED.
The Barque Tubal Cain with $1,000
bushels Of Wheat a Total Less.

On Sunday morning last, at about
o'clock, the Barque 7ubal Casn with
IS, 900 bushels of wheat from Milwaukee,
struck the beach about two miles north
of Two Rivers The wind at the time
was from the S. S. E., and blowing very
hard, with rain and dense fog. The
vessel at the time was under good head
way, making about eight miles an hour,
and went hard on. The Captain in
tentions were to keep nearer the west
shore than the east, because he expected
a Nor-wester, but he was not quite far
enough east to clear the Two River point.
The moment the vessel struck, the sea
commenced going clear over her and the
crew were in eminent danger, but they
kept their hold until daylight when they
escaped in the small boat In the even
ing of Sunday the sea went down so that
the Captain went aboard and secured
some of the sails-about $500 worth.
At that time there was only about five
feet of water in the hold, but in the
evening there came on a gale from the
North East which soon rendered it certain
that the craft and her valuable cargo
would be total loss. On Monday the
cabin was washed away and she settled
till she was eight-feet under water amid
ships. 1t is thought that her anchors
and rigging may be saved, and that is
about all. She was valued at $40, 900,
being only two years old, and was insured
as we are informed, for $4,000 SIS, 900
in the Home and 5000 in the Security.
The wheat was shipped by Jones of Mil
waukee and consigned to Second Nation
al Bank of Oswego. We do not know
whether it was insured Or not, it probably
was.

A NARROW ESCAPE. The Propeller
Eclipse which was out in the storm of
Sunday and Monday had a very narrow
escape from being wrecked. On account
of the heavy weather she was unable to
make port and her fuel gave out leav-
ing her at the mercy of the storm. AT
ter drifting over to the Michigan shore
with nothing but destruction staring the
officers and passengers In the face the
captain resolved TO make one more effort
to keep her off the beach and save his
vessel and ordered the Engineer to use
corn as fuel and endeavor to obtain suffi-
Gent steam 50 as to be able to make lit
tie head way against the raging clements.
This last resort fortunately, proved sue
cessful, and she arrived here on Tuesday
morning having used $50 bushels of corn
as fuel to make steam with.

1t is just such an ingenious argu-
ment as lawyer might elaborate on
any statute. Indeed, no better in
stance could be given of tie value of
this sort of verbal Interpretation than
is furnished in the dealing of the
Executive Department with these
same reconstruction acts. When they
first go before the President for his
signature, he reviews them most mi
nutely, and-his object being to pref
udice the bills-he comes to the con-
clusion that the District Commanders
are clothed with absolute power; their
will, he says, TO take the place of all
law. A month or two afterward, his
law officer examines the same acts
and-his object being to emasculate
their vitality-he concludes that the
District Commanders are invested on
ly with passive and very limited pow
ers. Vi what consequence is such
shilly-shallying as this with the peo-
pie of TIE United States? Besides. it
