Loss Of WhalerS.

New BEDFORD, Mass, Sept. S.-The
schooner Abbie Bradford, at this port from
Hudson's Bay, reports the loss of two New
Bedford whalers aud brings portion of the
crew OF one of them. The particulars are as
follows: Ga the l4th Of September, 1872, the
bark Orray Taft, at anchor near Marble Island,
Hudson 5 Bay, parted her cables and went
ashore, landing high and dry in such position
that she cannot be got off.
On the l9th of October following, the bark
Ansel Gibbs went ashore at the same place,
went to pieces and is total wreck The Orray
Taft had no OIL but the Anscl Gibbs had $50
barrels of whale oil aud 1000 pounds of bone,
most Of which was lost. A small amount was
saved by the Abbie Bradford No men were
lost at the time Of tue wrecks, but both crews
were obliged to live on the island until the End
of August last, and from exposure and lack OF
proper food were attacked with scuryy. The
winter was feartully cold, being the most severe
for uumber of years, so that natives OF the
island died by scores and the wrecked crews
suffered exceedingly. Ten Of the crew Of the
AuseI Gibbs and four Of the crew Of the Orray
Taft died
