rug slons. he lived IN Pennsylvania.
Shortly after this while the sailors were
trying to secure the foresail, another heavy
wave dashed over US. One Of the sailors
named Michael Higgins was swept over
board and drowned, and another was badly
hurt. AT S p. IT. the fury of the hurricaIe
had in nowise abaied. The sails had been
cut or blown away, one OF the tunnels dis
mantled and the wheelman's place on the
bridge broken up. During the night there
was not much sleep among the passengers.
The ships bell kept tolling with the pitch
ing of the ship, and the scene WAS a dis
NAL one. The engine had been kept going
inst enough to keep the ships head in the
right position.
The only noteworthy incident OF the
voysge was the relief OF q starving crew
which We ran across on the 9th OF October.
We sighted q bark flying signals OF dis
tress, and ionnd her to be the Perseverance,
of Bristol, bound from an American por;
to Bristol. She had been sixty-three days
at sea and had run short Of provisions.
For fifteen days they had had nothing but
ship-bread and water"
From q statement made afterward by the
ships Purser it appears that the unfortun-
ate passenger who wss lost was named E.
Simpson. He was 40 years old. The
purser also states that only one of the
ships boats was lost and another damaged.

neInbsring that the use of the editorial
I'VE" is the exclusive perogstiye of the edi.
tor. 4 correspondent, whea speaking of
himself, should always Use the personal

thai when they write letters for publication
they should say 1--WE" instead of 81" This
is mistake, aud makes trouble for the ed
itor, because he has to 90 over the letter
and mark out the re's and mark in Is, and
If he happens to be so busy that he can't

That's nothing; we all DO that with any

He Is an editor who believes what he
writes in his own paper. As the author of

to Winter. He is broad-souled, generous,
noble, liberal, alive to his moral snd reii-
gious responsibilities. Whenever the con-

honest man in politics, and l must say he
occupies a mighty lonesome position.
He hss never shirked duty or backed
down from any position taken in public

stood there. As Governor, as Congressman,
