The supply steamer Hoze, was also in

by Col. Howard, late Light House and
Harbor Engineer, for this district, and

The Erie Dispatch announces that the
-scow Florence, of Conneaut, Ohio, with a
cargo of gypsum from Canadian port,
called on Sunday the l4th. al the outer
pier, her crew being in famished con-
dition.
During the wind storm of last week a
fishing boat while trying TO make our
harbor, was struck by gust of wind,
which capsized her. Two men, who were
aboard other, at the time, succeeded by
great exertion, in keeping above water un.
til wind aud waves drove the raft ashore
Reporter.
The blow of Friday of last week threw
the lake into quite an agitation and sever
al vessels found it difficult to weather it.
A small scow that left here with coal the
evening before had her deck load washed
off while of Fairport, and not daring to
make that port because of sinking cribs
run before the wind for this port
The charts got up by the lake survey
for the use of vessels on the northern
lakes are prepared at great expense. and
when furnished to to vessel masters
should be well cared for as the property
of the vessel and none other. 1t is ap E.
nal offence to personally appropriate
them by the master or others. Beside the
loss may be serious matter to the YES
sci as they cannot readily be esupplied.

ing brought into the harbor quite feet
of vessels. Two of them were loaded with
iron ore, four light, to load with coal.
Four of the number were from Queen
Vic's dominion. Ashtabula is found to be
the handiest port for Quebec, Toronto,
Hamilton and other ports for securing
ther supplies of gas coal, and the lines are
becoming quite regular and the number of
vessels increasing. The gas companies ol
these points are making this depend
ence, and the trade will no doubt become
quite important The quick dispatch the
vessels meet with. the fine quality of the
coal and the moderate prices at which 1t is
offered, are all important considerations,
and work favorably for this port One Of
the vessels-the NImrOd-was of the larg.
er class-559 tons-from Escanabs, having
on board 99s gross tons. She belongs to
Milan, and is one of the finest vessels tha
sails the lakes. Milan has the name oil
building the handsomest vessels out.
