The Tug Blaekban is receiving some

The tugs have to make extraordinary
long tOws at Chicago As we'll as elsewhere
if they mean to do any business. The tug
Protection the other day picked up four
sehoOners about 10 miles below Crosse
Point, which she brought triumphantly in
to port.
A dispatch from ST. Joseph states that a

on the beach north of that port Monday.
1t is believed to be the property of some
ill-laled sailor.

The bark Summer Cloud, which was used
last year at Chicago for taking sick chill
dren out on the lake, has been chartered
for hospital use, by the Medical Association.
This season invalids of all ages are allowed
to make use Of her, and can breathe the
pure and healthy air of the lake. She will

A dispatch from Marquette states that
The schr Twin Sisters has been rugged as
a three-and-after for her ocean trip. She
is to receive $50 n gold per 1,0OO feet for
deals from Muskegon to Leith, Scotland
The schr August Ford, which ran ashore
on Lake Erie in the fall of 1874, and has
been out Of commission ever since, left
Buffalo for Ashtabula, few days ago, to
load with coal for KingstOp. She has been
throughly rebuilt, and is now in good re-
pair. The number Of idle vessels on the
Saginaw River is by far larger than was
ever before known in its history, and stiH
each day swells the. ist....It IssexPected
that the Government wiz advertise for a
keeper for the light nthe north end of the
new breakwater at Buffalo, as the present
incumbent does not attend TO his business
The Buffalo Courier says; Upon un-
loading the schr Minnie Slanson, from
Chicago, at the Exchange Elevator yester-
day morning, her cargo of corn overran be-
tween 800 and 400 bu. The elevator men
refused to pay for the extra quantity until
after the load had been weighed second
time. Had the case been one of shortage,
no doubt the poor Captain would have
been compelled to pay over the valne of
the missing grain forthwith. 1t has been
suggested as the best means of settling
these frequent differences that in case of an
overmhths elevator men should IkayeJfhe
Fanefit and viaaa versa
