There'was an ugly sea and a heavy wind at the time. The mate had gone for ward, as plug in hawse hole had got loose and let the water into the vessel. He spoke to the captain and said referring to the wind and the heavy sea, ''You had better let her of little, " meaning the vessel; but Captain Sawyer said, ''No." He did not wish to lose what they had gained against the storm While the mate was engaged with plugging the hawse hole, the captain was in stopping posture, looking on. A heavy sea struck him in the breast and hove him overheard. A passenger threw over line, and step-lad- der was also cast overheard, but he failed to catch hold of either and was drowned
 The deceased was thirty one years of age and popular and able master. The be- reaved wife and children were to have joined him in this city yesterday. The family had sent on their furniture from Machiasport, Me-, to this city, to make this city their fu- ture home. Captain Sawyer leaves five brothers, three of whom are sea captains. one merchant in Philadelphia and one seaman. One brother is captain of the brig Thomas Furll The father resides at Machiasport. One brother is captain of the Scud, which was in company with the Morning Light last Sunday in the Gulf stream, and the two brothers had conversation together, parting never to meet again on earth The Scud ar- rived here from Ponce with a cargo of sugar and molasses to the Armstrongs on Thurs day. The death of Captain Sawyer will be deplored by large number of friends.

'I have no reason to expect that such will be the case" 'Is possession of the New York and New England road de- sired by your company ?" ''Oh, I don't know"
 The secretary of the New York, Lake Erie and Western road was next seen. He said: ''The rumor that lease had been signed is utterly without foundation in fact"

COMMUNICATIONS.
Another Water Question.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER: see no reason why should not take part in the water scrimmage. My platform is a broad one one on which individuals cir cumstanced as myself can stand, and, divestine themselves of political partisanships, unite in cry for some water. The Water com pany have extended small and insignificant pipe to my neighbors and myself and they positively refuse to do anything more, though above and below us folks abound in water, go clean and slake their thirst at all hours of the day and night They say it won't pay to do anything more for us so unless Judge Morris, General Trowbridge and myself rise before a. m our bath-tubs remain empty and our faucets only greet us with dry and insulting air bubbles, suggestive of anything but cleanliness. We have re- monstrated, we have stormed we have consulted law books and learned lawyers; we have even thought of employ ing bribery and corruption we have said to one another that water is not luxury but a democratic and republican necessity; not like gas, but more like sewerage; in fact the very basis and necessary foundation of sew erage-for what can an air bubble do for a sewer?
 see no help for it but for all sufferers to unite and, from their individual perplexities evolve the grand const1tutionalsprinciple that the water supply of great city should be managed by the city for the benefit of the inhabitants thereof, and not by stock com pany for the benefit of the stockholders therein.
 We three are not entirely prepared to adopt this vast underlying and irrefutable principle till receive assurances from the city that when the purchase is effected our wants will be supplied. Even now, at this late date, if the Water company were to ex- tend to us large and friendly pipe, and were to guarantee its constant spouting, we might reconsider and conclude that such matters are best managed by private individuals. We are still little on the fence, better on the water shed.
 The chief object of this note is to let each party know that there is discontent and la tent determination up here the side of Prospect Hill, and that if we are not ap- preached, and approached very shortly, there will be vast legal, military and ex-profes sorial outbreak against which all the water in the country will be powerless.
 D. CADY EATON.

 F. s. A point for the legal force estima- ting the value of the Water company's prop erty. How much smaller dividends would they have declared, and how much less valuable would be their "plant, Eff they had faithfully discharged the duty of supplying the city with water?

u,, pos;,;ou of Senator Davis.

The Position of Senator Davis. BLooMNGToN, Oct. 7.-The Bulletin, 8 Democratic organ, says Senator David Davis would not in all probability accept Cabinet position if offered him. He is Republican, but he has no sympathy with it's present policy, and might not consent to sell his conscience for an uncertain place in Presi- dent Arthur's Cabinet, and if Judge Davis should accept a place in the Cabinet, who would request the Legislature to appoint Bob Lincoln? Besides, the Legislature would have nothing to do with Judge Davis successor Governor Cullom would appoint him, and he would appoint Milton Hoy. of Springfield.

 Policy of the Liberal Party.
 LONDON, Oct. 7.-Mr. Gladstone received a great ovation at Leeds to-day Eighty-six addresses were presented to him. In &C., knowledging an address presented to him at the town hall he said that the Liberals did not desire the extinction of any other politi- cal party, but only to secure unity of action on the fundamental principles of political freedom He further said thatRthe foreign policy of the Liberal government was that every country should be credited with good motives until the contrary was proved and that all powers possessed equal rights. He said that he would never be a party to the introduction of the Irish land act into Eng land though the English and Scottish land laws required much attention. The farmers chief object was to secure an interest in holdings as compensation for improve ments. The Conservatives, he said, had pro- fessed to do this, but failed. MT. Gladstone attributed the general depressed state of trade to decreased purchasing power through bad harVests and not from contraction of the exports of the country.
 Gladstone's Bitter DenunciatiOn of Par
 nell.
 LONDON, Oct. S.-Mr. Gladstone, in speak ing at a banquet given in his honor at Leeds last night, denounced Parnen as the leader of @ handful of men who were not worthy of the name, but were parliamentary pack advocating the doctrine of public plunder, the issue of which was law on one side and sheer lawlessness on the other. They re- spected neither law nor human life. Par nell, he said, called America the only friend of Ireland, but he had never uttered a word disappearing of the assassination. The literature of that country was not American for there was not an American who does not spurn and complained of the traditional sluggish ness of the loyal Irish to assert them selves in support of the government. The crisis was great, but not force nor fear of force would prevent the people having the full and free benefit of the act, and if the law continued to be refused the resources of civilization to meet lawlessness were not yet exhausted.
