THE DISASTER.
The following additional particulars Of the
disaster are cleaned from the statement Of a
survivor =
The lead was cast every half hour; we
found twenty-four fathoms Of water, then
seventeen, and Immediately after struck.
The engines were turned at full speed
astern, when we instantly lost our propeller.
We were then driven further up the
bank. Two boats were launched one,
containing eight persons, swamped
the other, with August and two
others, drifted off, The remaining boats
were not launched, because of the
high sea- but were held ready. ALL however,
were stove during Monday. The cargo in
the forehold was thrown overheard to ease
and get the steamer off, but in vain. The
pumps were worked all day and rockets were

The Obstructed Street.

A person who owns property on State street
cannot perhaps claim to be strictly disinterest-
ed in regard to the repair of this street, As
understand the case here is a street that for
nearly three-fourths of a century has been in
use, either as town road or as city street, and
up to the day it was cut off by the railroad.
The railroad never would have been suffered to
cut the street off except upon condition that it
would repair it. The railroad did agree to build
a bridge, and to build it Nth all possible des-
patch. L am not able to regard it otherwise
than evasivs for the road now to say sit is
ready and willing to build it. if so ordered"
when the precise agreement was that it should
build it, and with all possible despatch. Why
this delay? Why not go forward and fulfill
the agreement in good faith? Why ask for Or
questions ask, presuming or hoping that the
road is disposed to do the fair thing, and not to
shirk by bubble its duties in the case.
If this were a case of first opening the street
then the city charter might perhaps give the
City Council discretion to leave it as it is, inn
passable to travel. But this is the case of the
repair of street already opened, Their plain
duty is, accordingly, by the law OF the state, to
put it in repair. They have no election. The
law says streets shall be kept in suitable repair
for travel by carriages, etc. Oftentlmes, of
course, such matters 60 by default, if nobody
cares about them. In this case very respect
able body of citizens have asked for the mend
ing Of the street. 1t is safe to say that nine
tenths of residents on State street and in the
vicinity are DESTROYS it should be repaired. They
want it passabe in all its length, not plugged
up at the bottom. Do the people of Portland
really understand that the total length of street
to be put in repair is only 246 feet Of this
only 60 feet, more or less, belong to the rail-
road, its road way being about 56 feet wide at
the point. The total length of Boston & Maine
bridging, including Clark, Park, High and
State street bridges is $50 feet or thereabout.
The Eastern Railroad has been required to
build 735 feet of overhead bridging, so that the
Boston & Maine has no exceptional burden to
carry.
AS regards "danger from ice." Of course
there are several days each winter when all the
hills, and all the streets too, in town are more
or less unsafe to travel by Improperly shod
horses. But for nineteen-twentieths of the
year there will be no trouble from ice on State
street hill any more than on the others. By
the terms of the contract, too, the city is held
harmless from all damage, suits and expenses
of litigation in any way connected with the
premises" In short, if the town could run
these 246 feet of street for seventy years, can
not the city and the railroad together make out
to run the same for while longer?

BASE BALL.-The game of base ball yester-
day afternoon on Presumpscot Park, between
the Rollstones of Fitchburg, Mass, and the
Resolutes of this city, was uninteresting to the
five hundred spectators who assembled to wit
ness it. The Resolutes had not recovered from
their Lynn fever, and the Rollstonss found it
an easy matter to beat them. We fear the
boys have been too much elated by their sue
cess in the first of the season, and have neg
lected to keep up their practice. Something i s
evidently wrong, for the Resolutes can play
ball. as everybody knows who saw their first
games this season. Their friends are not dis
couraged, but the public who attend ball
matches will expect them to make better exhi-
billions than they did yesterday afternoon. 1t
is true the clubs they have played with are the
very best amateur clubs of Massachusetts, but
this is no excuse for bad fielding errors. The
game yesterday is not worthy of detailed men
ton; the annexed score will tell the story:

OUTRAGE IN BowDoN.-A few days since
two men entered the house of Elbredge Hall of
Bowdoin, ard one of them committed an out
rage upon Abbie Coombs Saturday the men
were arrested at Pennington. The facts are as
follows: The two men came from Brunswick
peddling along the road and insulting women
when they dared. At Mr.. Halls house, one of
thementered and attempted to outrage the
girl, who is but thirteen years of age. Mr..
Hall heard her cries an1 rushing into the room
caught the fellow. He threw him on the floor
and was choking him when his confederate en-
tered and pointing pistol at Mr.. Halls bead,
ordered him to let the other go, which he did.
They then fled. Mr.. Hall got Deputy Sheriff
Leonard and pursued the men, overtaking them
in Webster. The man who presented the pis-
tol at Mr.. Hall was arrested, but the other fled
to the woods. By pedar's license which this
one had, it appears that his name is Patrick
Hamilton. The officer let him go and returned
home Others telegraphed to various points
for the arrest of the men, and en- Saturday
Sheriff Mllay was notified of their arrest at
Pennington, to which place an officer was sent
to bring them to Bowdoin. Our correspondent
was unable to learn the names of the men.

ROBBERY OF BRUNSWICK Boy AT Con
wAY.-Qnite recently three boys. aged about
sixteen, started from Brunswick for the White
Mountains, intending to walk the whole dis
lance and home again. These were Horace r.
Given, James SWEET and Edward G. Elliot, son
of Hon, David Elliot of Brunswick. On Fri
day, the 23d instant, as the boys were passing
through the woods between Conway Centre
and North Conway, they were overtaken by
two men in a wagon, one of whom alighted
and seizing young Elliot demanded his watch.
The fellow stated that he recognized his own
chain; that he had left the watch with jew
eller for repairs, and accused the boys OF hav-
ing obtained possession of it by some false pre-
tence He told Elliott he had revolver in his
pocket and would give him the contents unless
he instantly delivered the watch. In the mean
time the other man sat in the wagon and
expostulated with the robber appearing to be
an unwilling party to the transaction. The
watch was given up and the men drove off.
At the next village the boys made complaint,
and Judge Eastman, with good horse and
sufficient aid, started in pursuit of the robbers,
taking the boys along with him. Presently
they came IN SlSnC OF tne non WIZ oIo'o az ="
rapid rate, but Judge Eastman had the better
horse and soon overlook them. An officer
seized their horse by the bride and the boys
identified the driver as the man who took the
watch. He at first resisted, and spoke freely
of his revolver but the officer was resolute,
telling him he must go back with them to the
village He then submitted, delivered up the
watch and offered the officer five dollars and
the team, which he said was his property, but
gave 1t as his opinion that it was entirely un-
necessary for him to return to the village
Judge Eastman and the officer were unable to
agree with him. Accordingly they all returned
to the village where the robber was arraigned
before Justice Lamson of Centre Conway, and
was committed to Jail to be tried at the Octo-
Der term at Ossipee for robbery. His name is
John S. Foss. The Conway people extend q
very cordial hospitality to strangers, and the
affair created great deal Of interest and in
dgnation among them. Col. Elliot, who has
just returned from Conway, speaks in high
terms of Judge Eastman and the Conway
people generally, and says the boys are in high
spirits and will continue on their journey,

MIRAGE.-The jewellers in tents near Spring
Cove, on Cushing's Island, were on Sunday
afternoon favored with rare exhibition. At
about o'clock it was observed that the north
ern horizon, near JEWELS Island, and reaching
around to beyond White Head, presented an
unusual appearance. Field glasses were at
hand, and served to give clearness and dis
tinctness to the picture, though there was a fair
view without their aid. In the direction OF
White Head appeared an immense waterfall.
To the left of that an extended forest. contain
ing three large lakes of varying size, one being
very large and at considerable distance from
the other two, which were SO near as to seem
connected. Stretching along to the left of this
around to beyond JEWELS Island appeared red
cliffs. This picture lasted nearly half an hour,
changing but little, when suddenly. exactly at
the point of JEWELS Island, the island itself
seemed to rise hundred feet out of the sea
and then fade slowly away.
