sHIpwaREck AND SUFFERING:
Narrow Escape and Terrible Suffering
of a Wrecked Schooner.

PORTLAND, Mar -.
The report that the wrecking schooner j..
W. SAWYER. with the loss of three seamen,
is at Mt. Desert. is fully confirmed
BAR HARBoR, Mar. Is.
The particulars of the wreck of the
schooner J. W. Sawyer of Portland are as
follows: The vessel was bound from Cape
Shore to Portland with haddock. Wednesday
March T. while trying to make Old Harbor
light, she struck on Black Ledge and is a
total loss. Fifteen men were on board, three
of whom-Frederick Smith, Nahum Snow
and James Smith-were lost in trying to
reach the ledge. Capt. Orchard was washed
back three times, but was finally pulled upon
the ledge in an exhausted and half frozen
condition by one of the crew. One man,
James Bolten, had his leg broken. The sur
vivoas of the wreck remained on the ledge
sheltered only by piece of sail and barely
kept from freezing by small fire of drift
wood until Thursday afternoon, when four
men in the only dory saved succeeded in
reaching Marshall's Island on Friday, when
help was obtained from Swans Island and
the sufferers taken there and cared for.

The Tribune remarks: The improve
ment in the general business OF the coun-
try since Congress adjourned has been
quite percepthle. The exchanges at New
York last week amounted to S74S, 544,
Col, and exclusive OF those probably
arising from dealings in stocks, to $685.

than those of the corresponding week last
year. For the previous week the COM
parative decrease had been % per cent,
and for the week ending February n,
273 per cent There is still some diff
Guilty in branches of industry in which
production has been excessive, and doubt
in regard to the effects of the new tariff
will occasion embarrassment for a time in
those that are least favored by the chan ges
made. But the general impression
throughout the country is that business
will soon adapt itself to the new con-
ditions, and find the revision on the
whole decidedly beneficial. The dry
goods trade showed marked improvement
last week, with slight advance in some
makes of wide sheetings, ticking and che
viots, fair orders for wooden goods and an
increased demand for silks. Wheat and
corn were little lower last week. while
lard has tended toward higher prices
Speculation in cotton has not been un
