= Loss OF THE New ENGLAND.-As we write
this paragraph, after midnight little is known
of the wreck of the steamer New England, but
we hope to receive fuller information before we
close our columns The loss of this fine vessel
is disaster which is deeply. regretted; but all
are gratifed to know that there was no loss of
life or injury to person. The line to which she
belonged was chartered in 1859, and had been
very successful, owning three first class steam
ers of about 1900 tons each, and we believe this
is the first serious reverse the company has met
with. The New England cost about $4,000
we understand, and there was no marine insur-
ance on her, unless perhaps some of the indi-
vidual stockholders had effected policies for
themselves. There was fire policy of about
$50 900 on her, are told, but this is worthless
in this case These boats have been under the
most careful management, and the disaster was
undoubtedly owing to heavy fog and bad

lHE IOlOWluS Is lrOm Out VIM Has uouo
share of provision store sweeping:
Mr. Editor Complaint is often made about
the condition of the streets, but one thing surs
there is no necessity whatever that SO much
rubbish should be daily deposited in the streets
from the stores. The city does clean the streets
and they might be kept SO longer than is usual
ly the case When We say there is no necessity
for throwing dirt into the street we forcibly add
that the city ordinance strictly forbids it. The
cutters are filled with paper, hay, kindhng
wood, the refuse of sorted fruit often, rotten
apple or orange discovered within,-away it
goes into the street-one day two whole cocoa
nuts went rolling out for better accommoda-
tions. Provision and grocery stores, and dry
goods, sweep their debris of various gatherings
into the street, and then in wet weather, in
stead of clean payements, we have this accum-
ulation of filth, and then the complaint, why
don't the city keep the streets clean?" Every
year there is just so much fault found with
whoever has the management of public affairs.
We should expect the little child to run to its
mother with the clothes it has soiled itself, but
we would like to see from a sensible minded
community an apprec alive spirit. We do not
want to talk the terors of the law, but in mild
er and more persuasive terms urge upon those
for appearance of neatness to adopt some other
method for disposing of the sweepings. Would
it not be as well, and but little more effort,
and the difference would pay in looks, to put
this in the cellar and at the time of cleaning
OUT let all go together with the ashes. ''Let
all things be done decently and in order"
