Adxices from Victoria.

VIoroR1A, December 12rh.-Intelligence
reached town yesterday, shortly after noon,
that the bark Twenty-frst of May, Captain
Lund, was on the rocks near Rocky Point,
opposite the Race Rocks lighthouse. The
steamers Eta White and Beaver immedi.
ately got up steam and proceeded to the
assistance of the stranded vessel. Upon ar.
irving there they found that she was already
half full of water, and later in the afternoon
she was quite full. It appears that she had
been for two days beating upon the Straits
without the assistance of pilot, although the
Captain had kept signal flying tor one, and
early yesterday morning she was struck by a
squaH. In lacking she missed stays, and be.
came uumanageable, being then near the
rocks. Two anchors were at once let down, but
the rocky nature of the bottom prevented
them from holding. She therefore continued
to drift, and struck stern foremost at A. NJ.
The rudder was at once carried away, but
the vessel did not commence to fill till several
hours after she grounded. Her position is q
precarious one, especially should southeast
gale spring up. From other winds she is
comparatively sheltered. The Captain, his
wife and the crew are ashore not far from the
ship, where they have put up a temporary
shelter. The Twenty-frst Of May is Bos-
ton-built bark of $50 tons register. She is
owned by Captain Martinas, Of Valparaiso,
and has been sixty-two days out from
that port. She was bound for Port Discov-
cry to load lumber, and came up in ballast.
Captain Lund does not know whether the
vessel is insured or not.
The steamer Reliance on her way down
Friday struck snag near Chilliwack, and is
now lying in shallow water. The Irving
took off all her freight. and brought down the
cattle and passengers that were on board. It
is expected that she will be raised in few
days, when proper appliances for closing and
pumping out her water-tight compartments
arrive at the scene of the disaster.
The weather is cold, with light snow fall

A VERY BOLD STEP.

The statement comes from Washington
that the President has determined to ap-
point no more women to office. This de-
termination is qualified by the statement
that it is not intended to apply to positions
in the Departments, but only to the Post
offices and Pension Offices. The reason
given for this intended change is not very
lucid. 1t is said "that the Postoffice De.
'ipartment has had great deal of trouble
"as the result of appointing women to
"ofice, and that such appointments have
"caused good deal of dissatisfaction in
the party" 1t would be desirable to
know what kind OF trouble follows the ap.
pointment of women to the Postoffices and
Pension offices, that does not follow the
appointment of them to places in the De-
partments. AS regards the latter, there
has been good deal of scandal from time
to time, and it has been charged that Con-
gressmen abused their opportunities for i'm
moral purposes. But as the objections to
women in the Post and Pension offices
do not appear to have any connection
with the objections to them in other
positions, it seems necessary to sup
pose that some peculiar difficulties
are referred to. Why these appointments
should cause dissatisfaction in the party,
however, if the objections to them are not
made on moral grounds, we do not under
stand. Is it possible that the male office
hunters resent the participation of women
in scramble which they think ought to
be monopolizsd by themselves? Do they
fear that the offices will not "go round p
Or do they rebel at the appointment to Of
fee of feeble and politically useless crea-
lures who cannot work at the prima-
ries and in the conventions. We trust
that the actual reasons for the new arrange.
ment will not be withheld. They ought to
be good ones to justify the step, and if
they are not good ones they ought not to
be allowed to stand. By all means let us
have the truth about this matter.
