The Loss OF THE ADA W. GoULD-Capt.
Lansil, late master of the schooner Ada W.
Gould of Bangor, recently reported wrecked
off Bermuda, arrived in New York, Thursday,
and made the following statement regarding
the loss of that vessel:
The Ada w. Gould sailed from New York
Aug. 16, for Rio Grande de Sal On the 9th
of the same month she was caught in hurri-
cane off Bermuda, which capsized the vessel
and she became water-logged. When she cap
sized passenger named john Color of Chi
cago, was drowned, being at the time in the
cabin on the lee side. Two of the crew, who
were in the cabin at the time on the weather
side, forced their way through the windows
and were we'd. After cutting away the main
rigging the mainmast went overheard. the
foremost having gone when the hurricane
struck; the vessel righted, but being full of wa
ter the sea made clean breach over her, and
the crew were obliged to lash themselves to the
house and rail, being washed continually for
forty-ei2ht hours The next day after the ves-
sci became dismasted the mate, Russell g.
Wyatt, was washed overheard by heavy sea
and drowned The captains son, Oscar Lan-
sil, at the risk of his own life, unlashed him
self and endeavOre3 to save the m ate by throw
ing him a line, but the sea was running SO high
at the time that the only line he could get did
not roach him and the next sea swept him from
sight. For five daysthe survivors were with
out food or water, as the water on deck had been
washed overheard and that below deck being
salt, and as the sea was running so high
that they could not leave their lashings to get
anything in the shape of food After the sea
moderated, with the help of a harpoon, they
fished up from the hold case of condensed
milk, on which they subssted, with some wa
ter which they caught on the ninth day, until
they were rescued, which was after fourteen
days Of suffering, during which they sighted
bnt one sail, and being out of the track of Eu-
ropean bound vessels saw but little hope of be-
Ing saved from starvation. On the morning of
the 10th of September, in lat 81 and Ion. 80
they were taken off by Capt. Delano of the
ship Golden State of New York, who treated
them with great kindness, aud the captain aud
crew wish to express their sincere thanks for
his kind treatment in their destitute condition.
On the 29th of September the brig Corsair of
Swansea, Capt Gibbs, kindly offered to take
Capt. !!ansil to Swansea, Wales, where he was
landed Nov 18th

ALLAN STEAMERS The Allan mail steamer
Sandman, Capt. Dutton, from Liverpool the
23d and Neville the Oath, arrived here at 10
o'clock yesterday, bringing 20 cabin and GO
steerage passengers. She had very pleasant
passage. The mails and passengers left by a
special train for Montreal at noon.
The Peruvian, Capt Smith, sailed Saturday
afternoon, taking 20 passengers and full
cargo. Several passengers were left by mis-
take. She took the mails at Halifax.
1t is said that responsible parties in Halifax
have offered Messrs Allan free wharfage and
excellent facilities for doing their business if
they will make that port the terminus for their
line of steamers. The people of Halifax are
wide awake to the Importance of getting this
line of steamers from this port. Sir Hugh
Allan went to Halifax on the Peruvian Satur-
day, and it is said he is to consider the PROPOSE
ton made him in that port.
The Prussiau is the next steamer of this line
due here. She will leave the Canadian mails
at Halifax.

Music HALL.-This evening "Pique' will be
brought out at Music Hall by the Fifth Avenue
troupe. Such play interpreted by such a
company stands in no need OF recommendation,
but we quote the following from an exchange,
to give an idea of the play:
1t was fine entertainment the audience was
treated to and the play deserves all the kind
words which have been said in its favor. It is
a combination of the sentimental, the grave
the thrilling and the lndicrous so successfully
interviewer as to rivet the attention and COM
mand the feelings of the audience. The COM
pany, which presents the play though in some
respects different from that which gained for 1t
its reputation in New York city, yet is we'll
cast, and the various actors sustain their roles
we'll Miss Buchanan as Mabel Renfew, was
perfectly at home in the dellneation of the dis
a pet, and hence was miserable in spirit and
made everybody else so. Stella Consdon as
Ratch, the hghfying waif from the slums,
was grand attraction in her character as
waiting maid and noisy rafting girl, There
is no wonder she held the audience in New
York hundred nights. 1t is worth the price
of ticket to enjoy her jolly ralllery. Miss
Nellie Tannehll as Aunt Dorothy, was pleas
ing element, calm, dignlfed and motherly; one
cannot help enjoying her acting. Mr.. W. II.
Hamilton as Mathew Standisb, the Massachus-
etts mill owner, rendered the leading male
character in perfectly satisfactory manner.
acting that favorably impressed every one. The
two tramps were natures own their counterpart
can be seen on'our streets daily. The company
brings with it some fine scenery. The ladies'
costumes were very handsome, and the tableaux
very effective.

ST. DOMINIC's FAIR.-The fair for the bene-
fit of the st. Dominic's church opens to-day at
Congress Hall. Those having the affair in
charge have been hard at work of late prepar-
ing for the event. and the hall already has
very fine display of useful and fancy articles.
Among the interesting features of the fair will
be the balloting to decide who shall receive the
beautiful presiding chair from the establish
ment Of Deehan Brothers. The contest will
centre between the Montgomery Guards, Grand
Army of the Republic Association and the
Catholic Union. A fine life-like portrait of
Bishop Healey, from Conant, will be presented
to some fortunate person. A fine pair of oars
will be voted for as to whether Kennedy or
Stewart is the best entitled to them. A beau
tful miniature yacht, which has been on exhi-
bition for some days at McGowan's book store,
is to be ratified for. as is also an elegant cham
Der set manufactured by Darling & Hunt.

THE MISUNDERSTANDING evening ''The Cor
sican Brothers was produced at the Museum,
with Mr.. Byron in the double role of Fabien
and Louis del Franchi. In these characters
the whole interest of the play centres and
upon satisfactory Interpretation of them its
success entirely depends Mr.. BYron's inter-
probation was far from satisfactory. Though
free from the offensiveness which characterized
his bob Briefly it was an entirely mistaken
one. Not even a glimpse was afforded of the
grave, melancholy, high-spirited Corsican in
whom through long habtude, grace and cour-
tesy mad become a second nature. On the
contrary, one brother was made bravo and
the other blusterer. Nor is it the only quar-
rel we have with Mr.. Byron's conception that
it fails to convey the del Franchi. 1t fails to
convey with truth any man. No man in mo-
ments of passion, love or anger, rants as Mr.
Byron did. No man relates legend to friend,
as they sit at meat, in tone and manner as if
delivering harangue at a eamp-meeting. 1t
was the pesvading fault of the rendition, that
it was unnatural. The delivery was all de.
clamation, and very poor declaration, too. We
are aware that the stage is something more
than transcript of life, as a good picture is
something more than slavish copy; that stu
ations must be exaggerated; that the expression
of passion must be strongly accumulated; but
the exaggeration is all to heighten resemblance,
and not to destroy it. Mr. Byron has publicly
expressed his desire that he shall not be con-
founded with the ''boy tragedan." We believe
his apprehension unnecessary, for, frankly
speaking, the del Franchi of the hoy TRACE
dian" is incomparably better than his
The support was in the main very good, and
Miss Campbelps "Emile,'' Mrs. Meeker's
MADAME del Franch,' Mr.. Harkinson's
''Meynard," and Mr. Delaney's Chateau
Renaud" all had something commendable.
The company numbers several actors who bid
fair to become favorites. 1t is the intention Of
Miss Marsh to have company that will suit
the public, and she is prepared to supply all
omissions and remedy all mistakes. She has
in the most liberal manner determined to
honor the merchants tickets issued by Mr..
Wyer during his management.
This evening the sensational drama @Clouds''
will be presented, Miss Marsh making her
first appearance.

the position of State Treasurer. His public SER

have fitted him to be worthy successor of our
