The story of A ygcG-f, Colony in Pata-
gonna.

The colony Of Chupat, on the west coast
Of Patagonia, was formed by 4 party Of
Welsh people under the superintendent
Of Mr. Jones, an independent minister Of
Bala, IN North Wales, in the year 1865.
Since It's establishment the colonists have
/ been more or less dependent on the ArGen-
tine Government for their subsistence and
news has been occasionally heard of them at
Buenos Ayres, to which place they make
periodical trips In schooner. This vessel
vas, however, wrecked In 1868, and anoth-
or small schooner, which they purchased by
| the assistance Of the Argentine Govern,
ment, also coming to trouble, their means
of communication with the outer world
were cut off. In the month of 1iarch last,
no news having been herd from the colon
/ lists since the month of May in the previous
year, considerable anxiety was felt on their
account, and the British gunboat Cracker
was dispatched to ascertain what had be-
come Of them. That vessel accordingly
arrived in Engana Bay on the 4th of A pril
last. and Commander Dennistoun proceeded
by boat mp the river about six miles to the
Village Of Chupat, and had the satisfaction Of
finding the colonists in excellent health and
! spirits, although they had been thro~n on
their own resources for so long period.
| Their gratitude for the anxiety displayed
on their behalf is described us ''most
! touching"
| The colony had suffered for two years
| from drought, and the whole wheat crop of
/ last, year estimated at lG - tons, was Just
about sufficient to support the present pop
uiation ESTIMATED as equal to 10 adults)
at the rate Of eight pounds a week each
/ until next harvest, supposing none were
/ kept for seed. Two families were found
utterly destitute Of grain, while ten others
had certainly not enough to last more than
/ two months or so; and as Mr.. Lewis Jones,
| to whom Commander Deunistoun granted
a passage to MonteyedicO, could not return
to the colonies with supplies for four
months, Commander Dennistoun took upon
/ himself the responsibility of leaving what
/ provision could be spared TO the poorest
| families lie also left them 200 pounds of
soap an article they had been destitute Of
for four months.
! The whole colony had been without any
| description OF groceries for ten months, liv-
| ing chiefly on Bread, butter, and milk, and
what guanaco and ostrich meat they could
obtain By hunting. At present there are
/ only seven sheep IN the colony, and the
/ only means Of communication thai exists
| with BuenoS Ayres is by land UlA Pata-
! cones; but to reach it, an unknown tract
! Of country Of some 800 miles has to be tray
ersed, with little or no water to be found.
| Yet, in spite Of these little drawbacks to
/ comfort, not one Individual expressed a
wish to leave the colony.

Outagamio farmers bid fair to have a
better market at Appleton than is enjoyed
by farmers at any other place in the State,
because the building OF the Manitowoc rail
way win enable wheat buyers to pay higher
prices for grain here than can be afforded
in Milwaukee. The bran, shorts and
feed mixture will always command a
high price because of our proximity TO the
Wolf river pineries. And before the close
of 1872, we expect that flour will be ex-
ported as cheaply from Appleton via Man
itowoc to Portland and Boston as from

RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.

"3lothor Winslow," of Canton, Maine
aged los years, is claimed to be the Oldest
Methodist in the country, if not in the
world.
Bishop Mcfarland, of Hartford, has
been presented $4,000 residence By his
congregation, and he has been assigned by
the Pope to the new diocese Of Connecti-
cut, erected from division Of the See Of
Connecticut and Rhode Island.
At the recent settlement of clergyman
over one of the Massachusetts, churches,
the examiners asked the poor candidate
what he thought or believed of Infant
Damnation His answer was drou and
shrewd. He had never, he said, had any
children Of his own, and naturally had given
the subject no consideration, wherefore he
had no opinion whatever. The Council did
not think it wise to press the matter, and
as the gentleman was sound upon every
other point, he was permitted to pass.
Nile. Catharine dc Montalembert, one of
the five daughters Of the late Count, has
Just taken the veil in the convent of the
sacred C0ur, at Layal, Mayence. Ono Of
the sisters had already entered on relig-
ious life during the lifetime Of her father,
to his great regret.
The Rev. Charles Fosev, who was ex-
peeled from the Church Of England because
Of his radical views, has been also discour-
aged from holding forth in the Unitarian
pulpits for the same reason, and it is now
proposed to set him up in a church Of his
own.
