NEW HAVEN, Jan. Q, 1888.
Mr. Henry Calderwood who has recently
been appointed keeper of the Marine Naval
Hospital at Widows island has recently dis
posed Of his vessel the Inez to Isaac Lead
better and A. Cooper.
A petition signed by large number of
citizens and vessel owners of North Haven
and Vinal Haven is about to be forwarded
to Hon. 9. S. Fairchild, Secretary of the
Treasury, protesting against the action Of
Congress in dispensing with the Deputy Gus
tom House at this port. and earnestly advo-
eating its re-establishment. There are sixty
four vessels owned upon these islands which
will be subjected to great Inconvenience un-
less the law is reScinded.
We continue to hear of disasters, caused
by the recent severe gale on our coast. Capt
Hiram Stones vessel came very near being
driven ashore in Deer Island ThOroughfare,
only escaping by cutting their cables, thus
sacraficing both anchors. The crew were
obliged to take to their dories, remaining
throughout the entire night in the storm,
their only shelter being the lee of an old
blacksmith's shop. Capt. Alex Gillis's YES
sci was driven ashore near the same place
and considerably damaged. The crew also
suffered much from exposure. The Cora
Smith, lying AT anchor in Perry's creek was
also driven ashore and sustained some dam
age,
The cold weather of the past week has
very considerably affected the operations OF
our fishermen. Southern Harb0r is frozen
over, and the shores of the Thoroughfare
coated with ice, making the work difficult
and almost proftless.

Senator Vest defended Fellows, and quite
a discussion ensued between Vest and Hale.
The latter said that many Massachusetts In
dependents had been much dlscomnted Dy
the course Of the administration, and had
refused, in recent State election, to vote
for the administration candidate. There was
no one who enjoyed the situation. Inc
President, himself, for he Hale was bound
to believe he was not born hypocrite, did
not enjoy it. The value Of the cry OF
''CIvIL SERVICE REFORM
had ceased to be of any estimation in the
minds of the leaders of the Democratic
party. Its canvasses would, hereafter, 90 on
in the old-fashioned way.
This year the land would rock with the ef-
forts on behalf of presidential candidates.
He affirmed the belief, and ventured the pre-
diction, that no means and no appliances
that had been in years past used by the DEM
ocratic party, would fail to be resorted TO
this year. Intimidation, outrage and muir
der, II needed, would open again the bloody
grave in which would be ent0mbed anew the

vice, no plan Of campaign ever resorted to

In the meantime, where would the Inde-
pendents be?
Senator Hale's speech attracted great and
unusual attention. At itsconclusion, Sena-
tor Butler sent to the clerks desk and had
read the circular sent out in 1873 by authori-
ty of the Republican Congressional Commit
tee (Of which Senator Hale was a member),
calling ON government employees for political
contributions.
Senator Hale justi led the circular, and
said it directly and explicitly excluded the
idea of extorting contributions.

At the opening Of the inquest lt appeared
that the captain Of the station life boat, on
the morning Of the wreck, refused to put the
boat out on the ground that the weather was
too rough, in which he was supported by
few Of his crew. But the majority wished to
proceed. In the port Of Dunmore. short

boat in spite Of its captain, by force, and as
sisted by the consenting members Of the life
BEATS crew, they pulled TO the wreck while
the storm was fercest. But the delays made
them arrive too late TO render any assistance.
The crew Of the Snow were one by one
swept away by the waves in the very sight
OF the suceoring boat. The latter pulled
around the wreck but fruitlessly.
The cOwardly captain Of the life boat Is In
danger OF being lynched. while the brave
fishing crew arc made heroes OF The body
of Capt Wiley has been embalmed and win

Owing TO the above serious allegations the
committee Of the local branch OF the Ma

yesterday to consider the advislbility of
holding a public Inquiry into the matter,
which was decided on.
The funeral oyer the remains Of the re-
covered bodies was impressively held yester-

noon says that the body Of Capt Wiley was
placed on the steamer City Of Berlin which

was crowded by 5000 persons, while many
thousands were unable to gain admittanco.
But they waited for the appearance Of Sails
bury and sang patriotic songs. cheering the
Unionist leader and hooting the Glad

was the dubious utterances In regard to free
trade, due to the fact that Liverpool Is the
strongest centre Of the fair trade movement.
Salisbury said the Unionists were convinced
that Ireland, sooner OF later, would become
thoroughly consolidated with Great Britain
and peacefully and prOsperously exist under
the same legislature, the same laws paying
the same respect to law and enjoying equal
liberty. Vacillation had been the great
crime of England against Ireland. No gov
