THE WRECK OF THE GIRoNDE.

A correspondent who visited the |
French Transport "Gironde" immediate
ly after she struck on Bare Bush Cay,
near Old Harbour in this Island, has IA
voured US with the following particulars:
1.-THE French Transport Ship 'Giron-
de- fired signal guns of distress at half
past nine o'clock pm. on the 5th. Mr..
John Davis, Sub-Collector Of FL. M. Gus
toms, Old Harbour, proceeded on board
early the following morning, at Bare
Bush Cay, a distance of II miles, and at
great risk, the sea running very heavy at
the time and surf very bad he succeeded
in boarding her, his boat being strove in.
She was bound to Vera Cruz from Marti-
nique, and was followed by the French
Transport Steamer "Var," bound also for
Vera Cruz, for Troops. The "Gironde"
fired several guns, which brought her to.
Mr.. Davis having a pilot on board, (Robert
Jenning) sent him off with his boat to tug
her in. They also reported TO Mr.. Davis,
that a fleet of "a more vessels was bound
for Vera Cruz, for return French Troops
from Mexico. Mr.. Davis reports the dis
tressing scene and situation of the vessel
as awfully grand, but heartrending TO see
such a noble vessel going to pieces. She
is built in compartments of Iron and wood,
and had she been side on the reef she
would have soon gone TO pieces, but she
is stern on, her head being w. half S. for
Salt Hill. When Mr.. D boarded her, she
had but two feet of water in the hold, but
left her with seven feet, S pm. on the 9th.
She was under canvass and steam when
she struck, going nine knots, at 9 pm.
All efforts to rescue the stranded Steam
er have proved abortive, and the vessel
has become a total wreck.
H. M. Steamer Steady and Nimble
arrived at Port Royal on the 9th, with
the officers and crew of the Inflated ves-
sci, they were Immediately transferred to
H. M. S. Aboukir, on board of which
Ship, it is stated, they will remain until
an opportunity offers to convey them home.

PREMIUM FOR CHRISTMAS STOCK,

The Financial Secretary has minated
that application has been made for the
payment of the premium TO the breeder
of the heaviest OK, heifer, or COW slaugh-
tered during the year 1866, in respect of
an OK weighing 2l42 Id. and that the pre-
MUM will be paid accordingly, unless
contested before the 31st March next. Any
rival claims must be transmitted to the
Financial Secretary. For several years
the premium has been taken by stock
bred on Knockalva pen, and we have no
doubt last years premium will be awarded
to one of the same stock.-I6id.

THE Two VOICES -When Guttenburg,
the first printer, was working in his cell in
monastery Of ST. Abersgot, he tells us that
lie heard two voices address him. The one
babe him desist; told him the power his in
yention would Put in the hands OF bad men
10 propagate their wickedness; told him how
men would profane the art he had created,
and how posterity would have cause 10
curse the man who gave IL to the world.
So impressed was Guttenburg with what he
had heard, that he took hammer and broke
to pieces the types he had so'labonously put
together. His work of destruction was only
stayed by another voice, sweet and musical,
that fell on his ear, telling him to go on, and
to rejoice in his work; that all good might
be made the cause OF evil, but that God
would bless the right in the end So to all
OF us still comes those voices that came 10

while it is called today-to try to leave thl.
