THE LOST STEAMER.
What the City of San FranciscO'S People
"r Say of the Disaster.

SAN Francisco, June 2.--.Captain Wad-
dell and Purser Jerome, of the steamer
City of San Francisco, and Moses +. sar-
gent, of Boston, and Kingsland Sutton, of
New York, passengers, arrived here by
train to-day from San Diego. The even
ing papers publish an account of an in
terview giving further particulars ofthe
disaster. The captain and purser are un-
willing to make any statements until the
former has submitted his report to the
agents Of the company. The officers
avoid giving theories concerning the rock
on which the ship struck, The passen-
ters say there was deep water all around
Il. The officers of the Mexican gunboat
say they knew nothing of the rock be-
fore. The shock when the ship struck
was of about thirty seconds duration. In
a few minutes after striking the boats
were cleared away without confusion and
the passengers seated in them ready Tor

thevessel grounded about four miles from
shore. The boats were instantly lowered
and pulled for the beach. On landing,
out of nine boats, only one escaped up

fifteen feet high, and when it struck the
boatsit came with such force that the oc-
cupants were hurled ten or fifteen feet
Babies were thrown from the arms OF
their methers. Even garments and jewel

waves. When the first boat touched
shore those in it threw out ropes and
ranged themselves in line to help the

soul was safe on land. One baby wal

OHIO CERTAINLY DEMOCRATIC
memphis Appeal


The Democrats of Ohio are sanguine of
an overwhelming victory in October next
It is all very well to make fun of Mr.
Hayes for taking care of his Ohio friends
He is pledged to one term, say the peo-
pie, and he certainly can't be filling the
offices with his placemen. In 1881, ,ohlo
will have to send TO the United States
Senate successor to Mr.. Thurman. On
the 4th of March, 1881, Hayes leaves the
White House. 1t isn't so wonderful, af-
ter all, that Mr.. Hayes is putting his Ohio
friends into office. Make note Of this
The Republicans of Ohio are much per-
plexed as to whether the State Conyen-
tion. when it meets to nominate candl
dates for State officers, will indorse Mr.,
Hayes's policy or not. 1t would be a
signal discourtesy for the Convention not
to indorse; and yet there are great
many Republicans who declare it can not
afford to endorse-that to do so would
lose them the State. The Ohio Republi-
cans are in the condition of the buffalo
bull that died because it could never make
up its mind whether to join a drove 1t
saw going for salt or another drove going
for grass. He wanted to go with the lar
ger crowd, and never could quite make
1p his mind which drove was the most
numerous. "He died between salt and
grass" While the Radicals are thus dl-
Vided, the Democrats are united in de-
termination to elect ticket composed of
Democrats who were contending for the
principles to which Hayes has become q
convert, and which he opposed until
made triumphant by the election OF

CANTON, OHIO, June 9th, 1877,
M. Editor AS the time is fast coming when
the Democratic party will be called uponto place
I'm nominations candidate for Governor, to be
elected or defeated at the october election, aud
Notwithstanding many prominent and good men
have been spoken Of, for that place, thoughtit
would not be out Of place for me to suggest the
name Of our worthy fellow citizen, Ex-Judge
Isaac @. Collins of Cincinnati. 1t will no doubt
beremembered by many that Judge Collins was
nut in nomination by the Liberals four years ago
As their candidate for Governor. True he was not
elected at that time bat received many thousand
votes. He will also be remembered by all who
heard him. that he is man Of ability, strong
reasoning powers, and wherever be went he drew
many to his ticket, and those who did not only
vote for him and with him at that tme seeing
the necessity of change In the political held are
still anxious and desirous Of change and are
found now voting and cooperating with the
Democratic party, and should the Democratic
party see proper to place in nomination thls
worthy statesman and fine orator and he take the
stump, as he undoubtedly would, he would rally
many voters to his support and the entire ticket
Hoping the Democratic party will see the necessity
and propriety in giving Collins the nomination
and with their hearty support would have no douh
ofhis election and the entire success OF the ucke
In October next. Yours in

habits, no relatives that any one knew Of,
and yet no savings bank account. 1t was
