Lost his Ship.

The following incident in connection
with the Vile du Havre disaster which
happened in mid-ocean, Nov. %, 1873,
was related recently by one of the survi-
vors: Capt. Urquhart of the Tri-M Noun

rescued, and in the end charged only a

two persons who, with Capt. Urquhart,
owned the vessel, and they sold the boat
at auction, as agreed upon in case of
dissatisfaction. This threw the captain

means adequate to get another. One of
the rescued passengers of the Vile du
Havre learned of the matter, resolved
that the rescued should reward the gen.

Capt. Urquhart bought an interest in
the ship Isaac Webb, of the old Black
Ball line of merchantmen, and is now
running between New York and Lon
don.
