FINE LINE OF IRON SHIPs.-The Beaver
clipper ship Lake Michigan, which cleared
from this port for Glasgow yesterday, is one of
line of four ships owned by the Beaver Steam
ship Company of Montreal. The Lake Erie,
another of the same line, is on her way here to
load grain, and still another, the Lake Superb
or, is now in New York. 1t is confidently ex-
pected that all four will come to this port
another season. The company claim that these
ships have great advantages over wooden ones.
They can carry very heavy sail even in the
toughest weather without straining in the
least They are furnished with steam wenchss
60 do such work as discharging and loading car
goes, pumping out the ship, raising the an
chors, &c.
The Lake Michigan, Capt. Bouffler, is $50
tonnage, 2OS feet long, 80 feet beam. She was
built in Glasgow and is now seven years old.
She is very fine sailer, and has made the voy-
age from New Orleans to Liverpool in % days.
it being the quickest time ever made between
the two ports by sailing vessel. She makes
Three trips each season from Montreal to Glas-
gov or Liverpool.
The Lake Superior is q much larger ship, b5-
| ing nearly 1900 tons. She has made the round
| trip from Liverpool to New York and return in
| two mouths and five days. Last season she ran
from Quebec to Liverpool in 143 days and re-
turned in IA days. The ships are all made Of
the best material and have good accommodation
for officers and crew. The captain of the Lake
Michigan has better quarters than on many Of

Difficulties of Il Winter Voyage.

On the 10th day of last month the British
schooner EmmaJ. ;Shanks, Capt Heater, left
Halifax for st. john, N. B. The frs. night
out it was extremely cold, and the vessel iced
up badly, and three of the men were frost bit
ten. The water casks were washed away and
all the water lost Wednesday was spent ia
trying to repair the injury done, Thursday,
the 3lst, they made Cape Sable and there en-
countered gale of wind and lest tbs galley
and all the cooking utensils. The bulwarks
were stove, and for "a hours there wers three
feet of water 10 the cabin. Ia the gale the
cabin stove was broken up SO as to be utterly
useless, and the stock of provisions spoiled. To
add to the misery of the unfortunate crew the
schooner began to leak badly. Her sails were
SO injured that she was unmanageable, and all
the crew could do was to let her scud before
the wind. Her decks were washed SO bad that
the matches were unfastened, and it was with
great difficulty the disabled crew secured them
again. The schooner did not sight any sail
which could render assistance. Monday she
made Boon Island with light wind from the
West, She then ran for this port for relief, and
at o'clock last night was taken in tow BY the
tug G. A. Warren, Griffin, arriving in the har-
Dor at Z o'clock. She was leaking badly and
the crew were completely used up.
