\ DISTINGUISHED VIsIToR.-The l.. S.
Steamer Saanac, Rear Admiral Pen
nocks flagship Of the North Pacific
Squadron has been lying in our harbor
since Saturday. On Monday, at IL A.
NJ, Gov. Ferry visited the Admiral ac-
companied by the Federal and Terrific
rial officers and members of the press.
They were courteously received, and
shown every object of interest aboard
the ship. On Tuesday, reception was
held at the Governors mansion, with
the officers of the Saronac as invited
guests. On Thursday evening a pub
lie reception was held in Columbia
Hall, which was attended by our citi-
zens generally to do honor to the illus
trious visitors. 1t was an exceedingly
pleasant affair, and will be remembered
as enc OF the happy seasons of life
time. The staff of officers of the Sara
nae are Lieutenant Commanders w. B.
Hotf, S. c. Amory, H. G. Taylor, H.
c. Cook, and Lieutenants L. E. Chen
cry, w. Maynard, II. c. Terlill; Chief
Engineer, A. S. Davids; Surgeon, w.
E. Taylor, and Assistant Surgeon, j.
NJ. Flint. The steamer was built in
lS49 and reftted about three years ago.
She carries ten 8-inch guns and one
pivot 11-inch gun. Her full compile
ment of men is 27O. The Saranac per-
formed good service during the late war.

TtfB srErFWGY.-We noticed yester'
day another .IltgS invoice d elegant
st6lnWsy Pianos being received by MeSOrS
AaEpS q LUCIA 100 Market ,gtreet, and
WeFe Ibak "a toleira 6oBthem thdt tha
were doing a considerable trade in them,
having sold seven n stelnWays within
the last ten days. % d uif-a.t
We are not astonIshed at seeing the
stelnway go of so rapidly, for where
piano Is 80 good as to commend itself to
every musician Of any moment in the
country, it must have merit, and by the by
we so u often tCliimed for other and
cheaper Instruments that ceFtaih compoS'
ers endorse them. This Is all true. Emil
nent composers through importantly,
friendship or gratitude often endorse half
dozen different makes Of pianos, but when
1t comes TO purchasing one for their own
use you will find that nine.tenths Of these
people fall back upon the SteinWSy, for
they know where they will find It, so to
say, every time, that although other
pianos may be good, and many Of course
are, the steiuway is G!IcGyS good.
As piano builders, Messrs. Stienway O.
Sons havea reputation cqualed by no
house ip tho world; and as they have
spent years Of toll and millions Of money
in building that reputation, they cannot
afford to mar it by turning out one de-
Iective instrument for although they
might make for q time few hundreds OF
dollars, they would injure their reputa'
ton to the extent of hundreds Of thou
sands.

Halifax, 4. The schooner George Walker,
Capt Atwood, from North Bay, bound 10
Provincetown, Mass, arrived here yesterday,
and reports that he experienced heavy gale
on the north side of Prince Edwards Island,
and lost iories; had her bulwarks stove and

PEELED to cut away the mizzen mast during
| the gale to save the vessel, which was an
chored off Arsnix with both anchors and 100
fathoms of chain. She rode out the gale sue
| cessfully.
| Some sails and a medicine chest of an
| American schooner named the Anges Friend
were found floating in the bay and lowed in
to Port Hood the other day. 1t is supposed

particulars of the loss of the crew of the
schooner Good Intent, which was lowed into
that port waterlogged, Thursday. On the
