The Mt. Desert Heratds Long Island cor
respondent writes to that paper as follows !:
On the night Of September 9th, the schooner
Joseph Garland, of Gloucester, Capt. Hale.
came into our harbor. The vessel was bound
to the Georges and had sprung aleak about
seventy miles from here, and the crew of eleven
men had to use every exertion to keep her
afioat until they got in here. They kept both
pumps going and bailed at the rate of six hun
dred buckets an hour, but the water steadily
gained on them, and the captain says that If
they had twenty miles more to have gone be-
fore reaching land she would probably have
gone to the bottom, and every soul been drown
ed, for they only had one old dory, and it was
blowing heavy breeze and the sea was very
rough. On her last trip she was thrown down
by the heavy seas Of August 18th, and two
men washed overheard. one of whom they
saved, the other was drowned. The trip be-
fore that they were very unfortunate and now
the crew refuse to go on Georges in her, con-
sidering her an unlueky vessel; so after stop
ping the leak here they will go back to
Gloucester.

The steamer Silver Star, which has been
on the route from here to Bar Harbor the
past three months discontinued her trips yes

Another steamer will probably take her
place. The Silver Star has been a great
convenience to the public since she has been
on the route, and We hope for her return
another season, as she has proved herself a
safe convenient steamer.

Sunday, Sept 26th, was a bright day in
the history of the Baptist church in Surry.
Rev. Geo. w. Hinckley closed very sue
cessful series of evangelistc meetings which
resulted in the conversion of sinners, the re-
claiming of back-sliders and the spiritual
up-building of the church. Five followed
their Lord in baptism. which was a very
solemn and impressive scene, and ten re-
ceived the hand Of fellowship, two at the
special conference, held at 8 o'clock, and
eight after the baptism. To all appear
ance, the future for this church never looked
more hopeful than at present. Mr.. Hinck-
ley left on Monday morning, very much to
the regret of large circle of friends, with
many prayers for his future prosperity. J.

beginning Of her sickness. seemed TO battle
the know ledge of all the physicians and
there were many who were called TO her aid.
The general verdict however was that can
cerous affection was consuming the strength
and vitality Of the invalid, yet her sickness
seemed in many respects unlike the usual
rayages of that insidious disease. ParoX-
ysms Of extreme pain would be followed by
intervals of comparative ease and a seeming
gain in health, giving her friends the hope that
she would continue to rally, hope soon
blighted by recurrence Of pain and pros
tration. No trouble or expense was spared
to prolong her life, her daughter watching
her constantly with unremitting care and
devotion, until the weary spirit passed from
earth to a better life "beyond the river"

community has sustained great loss in the
death of Mrs. Clark, for she was a noble
woman OF sterling character, pure and con-
sistent christian, faithful member of the
Congrega ,ional Church, one who by her
amiable qualities and kind consideration of
others had endeared herself to large circle
of friends. The aged mother of the lady,
Mrs. Nancy Richardson, now nearly 80
