With PRAYERS on their LiDs.

Lost While Returning. from Church Across
Lake i:egantir, Canada.
Ga the shore of Lake Megantic. near the
borders Of Maine, is :. small colony OF set
tiers from, Montre,l. They attend divine
service Oh Sunday afternoon in Megantic
village, three miles across the lake. On
Sunday last 4 gale sprang up during the
service. and did not abatc until nightfali.
Two Of the women decided to remain
over until morning. but seven men
and four women resolved to venture
across the lake, and started in two boats,
the smallest acting a., pilot. When about
four hundred yards from Ramonge's s
Point. their landing place, they were ex-
posed to the full sweep Of the gale,
which had again risen. The largest boat
was swamped by 4 wave, aud its nine pas
sengers were struggling for life in the
water. August Murray, Christopher
Maclsery and Flora Mcdonald. all under
twenty years of age, quickly sank with
prayers OH their lips. ID. 5. Mcdonald, a
middle aged man, nohly saved Mrs. Mur-
ray, an invalid, as she was sinking, and
washed beside the water-loggcd boat, the
gunwale of which llc grasped on one side,
with Malcolm Cameron Oh the other. Their
cries Of distress soon brought to their as
sistance two men in 4 smaller boat just in
time to save two girls and a man, whose
light-colored clothes showed their where
abouts in the darkness. These held Oh
to the gunwale of the boat, and were tow
ed ashore. Returning, the little boat res
cued Cameron and Mcdonald. and Mrs.
Murray, the latter Of whom died from
frigh: and exposure on landing.

An Address to be Issued to the PeOp:o by the
Sage of Gramercy.
The report that Mr.. Tilden is lukewarm
in this canvass has been spread, especially
since the Sun's s queer articles Of one week
ago. 1t was said that he inspired them
that i,e had given nothing for the support
Of the campaign and did not care whether
Hancock was elected or not. A member
Of the New York committee denied these
stories. "You may say Oh the committees
authority" he said, "that Mr.. Tilden is
warmly interested in tine success of the
Democratic ticket. He Las given sener-
ously of his abundant means and has been
continual in his counsel and kindnesses.
lie has given W. much effective aid and is
earnest In hi" support. lie viii! publish
in address to the people some day tn
week, urging them to support Hanco, K
with their whole soul. Sir. Tildcn was
much annoyed lest the suns articles
might be attributed 20 him. lie had
nothing whatever to do with them and
did not know that they were to bc written
until he saw them in priat. Put down
Samuel J. Ti'den as the man who is doing
more daily with his money and his brains
than any other man for the election Of
Hancock"

there should be large movement Of
