STEAMERS IN COLLISION.
The Cynthia Sunk and Nine Lives
Lost Near Montreal.

MONTREAL, May 22.-Steamships Cynthia
and Pclynesian have been in collision near
Long Point, twelve miles east of Montreal.
Eight lives are said to have been lost. The
Cynthia is freight steamer, and was bound
inward from Glasgow. The Polynesian was
bound out with freight and passengers for
Liverpool. The Cynthia sank in about II
fathoms Of water. The survivors swan
ashore. The Polynesian proceeded to QUE
bee in a damaged condition.
From the details obtained 1t appears there
ls dangerous curve in the channel where
the collision occurred, and through some mis-
understanding of the rule of the road, the
crash occurred. Those on deck Of the Gym
thia had barely time to rush below and warn
members OF the crew who were off watch
and asleep in their births TO get on deck and
swlm ashore. fortunately she had no pas
sengers. Nine OF her crew were lost. Chief
Officer Coates of the Cynthia spoke in strong
terms OF the lack of hospitality on the part
Of the Canadians. Notwithstanding the
fact that the survivors were dripping wet no
one offered them shelter or refreshments and
they had to walk all che way to the town.
About ten feet of mast one boat half full
of water and another salmost totally sub-
merged is all that is visible Of the CYNTHIA.
The vessel has totally disappeared and is ly-
ing at the bottom, not more than twelve feet
Polynesian must have been aware of the
danger wrought, though the vessel never
stopped to tender aid.
QUEBEC, May 22.-The steamship Polyne-
sian, in collision this morning with the
steamer Cynthia near Montreal, arrived here
safely this evening. She received serious
damage, bat the extent cannot be known Til
the survivors have made report. 1t cannot
be learned when she Is likely to be ready for
sea. The captain and pilot of the steamer
Cynthia both claim that the blame for the
accident rests with the Polynesian, her sig.
mails being misleading. The channel where
the accident happened. an experienced pilot
deep. Mariners say it was impossible for
the Polynesian to render the Cynthia any
assistance, with the way" on her caused by
full speed down stream; She could not have
stopped, and even II she could in a short
turn In the narrow channel and get back to
the scene of the accident.

THE GIRL LeFT BEHIND ME-.
Departure Of the Battery from Fort
PrebIe for the South.

1t was sad day for South Portland and
Cape Elizabeth yesterday. The boys in
blue" who for several years past, have
frightened those villages with their faces
and their buttons, made love to the girls and
excited the small boys to yearn for SOL
dier's life, and combats with dusky Indians
on the prairies of the wild West, had re-
ceived the terrible summons to break camp
and depart for other scenes, and the news
came with crushing weight upon the fair
maidens who basked in the sunshine Of their
military glory. The Cornelia Fl. brought the
battery, under the command Of Capt. Fuger,
to town. and 1t also brought about all OF the ir
female friends from the Cape. When the
fremont was reached and ranks broken the
scene was a touching one. A soldier sur
rounded by several weeping female admirers
was no uncommon sight. To some the part
ing was more severe than others. Here was
one poor fellow who had married, built a
house and Just proposed to settle down when
the fatal orders came that tore him from the
arms OF his youthful bride. But the worst
scenes OF suffering end. The brave Montgom-
cry Guards marched aboard, with colors fly
ng,on their way to Providence. "All ashorep
shouted the captain. With more tears and
more sobs the women gave final embraces.
The gang plank was drawn in, the hawsers
thrown aboard, and, to the music of 1.-THE
Girl Left Behind Me-" and the waving of
great cloud of handkerchiefs Battery X,
Fourth Artillery, U. s. A., steamed away for
the Sunny South.
