PARTICULARS OF THE Loss OF THE SHIP Pa
cIFIc OF YARMoUTH.-Captai Loring of the
ship Pacific, of Yarmouth, from Antwerp, Oct.

wrecked on the Welsh coast, states that on
Sunday, Nov. 1, at 2 80 p. M, tide last quarter
ebb, weather thick and hazy, wind E. s. E.,
blowing strong breeze, the ship sailing by the
wind under single reefed topsail, reefed foresail
spanker, foretopmast staysail and jib, and
while on the starboard tack heading northeast,
made the land about five miles to the south of
the ship, but did not know what land it was.
The breeze freshening they still stood son their
course, looking out for Caldy Light. About
9.20 p. IN. observed the land on the port beam,
bearing northwest, distant about half mile.
Directions were given to wear ship Immediate.
ly, and while the men were in the act of
squaring the after yards the ship struck and
fell off on her portabige. At II D. m. the
masts were cut away. and ten feet of water
found in the hold. ,sse .ss ssnre,,
, At this point the crew began to leave the
ship by swimming ashore. and after consider
able difficulty they succeeded in getting line
to the land, by which a hawser was taken to
the shore, and by this means the remainder of
the crew were safely landed in tub. All hands
were saved with the exception of one man who
was drowned while swimming on shore.
FOURTH DISTRICT GossIp. The correspond
ent of the Boston Herald, writing of Maine
politics from this city, says of the outlook in
the Bangor Congressional district: el L sA
Gen. S. f. Hersey, of Bangor, the present
representative, has been in his sea but few
weeks, and will never occupy it again. That
he was slowly dying was as well known last
Summer as it is now, but Mr.. Hamlin was un.
der obligations to Lew Powers Of Houlton to
press him for the succession. 1t would never
have done to have brought forward such a man
this year The people would have rebelled at
once. Mr.. Hamlin knew it, and SO the farce
was eracted of re'electing Gen. Hersey, and
those who depend on Mr.. Hamlin's home Or
gan for news don't know to this day what the
state of Gen. Hersey's health is. Mr.. Powers
may take a lesson from the fate of good
many Congressional candidates this year, and
take himself out of the way. If he doesn't he
will find himself, when the time comes, the
worst beaten man in Maine AS before stated
Attorney General Plaisted wants the place.
and Franklin A. Wilson, prominent and
popular lawyer, is also urged by his friends.

The RAID ON oNTURKEYs.--At an early hour

THE RAID ON oNTURKEYs.--At an early hour
yesterday morning the farmers from the coun-
try began to arrive at the market, between
Market and Silver streets. Although the most
of them were there at sunrise, they were not a
whit too early, for the sharp buyers were al
ready on the ground looking for bargains. AS
usual the poorest poultry arrived first, and the
sly owners attempted to make the buyers be-
lieve that that it was ''the best in the market"
But late arrivals proved that the political revo-
luton had not blighted the turkey crop. The
best lots of turkeys sold rapidly at % cents,
while the owners of other lots were glad to take
IS cents. Geese were not a favorite fowl in the
market and sold slow, the best of them bring
ing 20 cents. The chicken crop this gear was
evidently excellent, for probably there never
was larger number of chickens brought into
the market in one day than were offered for
sale yesterday. There was the nice, fat, plump,
cleanly picked chicks and the small, scrawny
pinched-up chicks. The best sold rapidly at II
CENTS while the majority of the others remain
ed unsold, and at night were returned to the
land of their birth. llEsarhV &
The whole market place and the streets on
either side were blocked with teams, and pre-
sented busy scene at times. Then trade would
be dull and the knights of the pillow would con-
gregate and talk over the Brooklyn scandal. A
few in the crowd had not heard of 'the scan
dal," and were much interested in the recital
of the affair. Often during the conversation a
customer would heave in sight, when each
would take himself to his Individual team, to
give glowing descriptions of the fat on this or
that fowl. v5S f-.. .f... ...,,.
Along in the afternoon the crowd around the
teams fell off, and one by one prepared to go
home. Upon the whole the sale was very fair,
and but little good poultry remained unsolJ.
