A MAN AND WOMAN DRowNED.-Our Kenne-
bunkport correspondent writes that onWednes-
day the 10th inst, Mr.. Bradford Bragdon, liv-
ing at Cape Porpoise village, Kennebunkport.
having occasion to examine his fishing travis
about four miles from land, took his wife with
him in two sail boat. On their return, with
increasing wind, they were hailed by a larger
boat, but declined the assistance proffered to
the wife. The neghboring fishermen soon en-
countered severe squall, after which the
Bragdon boat was not to be seen. The next
day, three different craft picked up the sails,
an oar and other things which belonged to the
missing boat and there is no doubt Mr. Bragg
don and wife were both drowned. They were
about % years old and leave two small boys,
with very limited resources and kindred.

To be as patient as we can;
To feel the night may not be long,
Though we should fail in every plan;

Since no ones perfect meath the sun;
But boys are wise when they need 'clothes,"
