THE present tariff bears heavier on
no classes Of persons than it does on
the farmers, and the probability is
that they will continue to suffer for
some time yet, as all efforts for their
relief come to naught. The Commits
sioner of Agriculture recently re-
quested the Secretary of the Treasury
to admit free of duty crude potash
and sulphate of potash, so that the
prices of fertilizers could be largely
reduced to the farmer. Mr.. Window
has replied in an official letter, deny
ing the application, and the farmer
can see again the beauties of high
tariff.

THE GOVERNOR Robe IN PORT.
me stranded Ship Hauled off and
lowed to Portland.

AT about / p. m. yesterday. the big tug
poat storm King steamed into the harbor
with the ship Governor Robie in tow. and
p,oceeded up the harbor to Union wharf. to
which the ship was made fast. The ship
was not making water very fast. and one
steam pump easily kept her free The news
OF the arrival of the vessel, of which so
much has been SAID of late, spread rapidly,
ana soon crowd of people had assembled at
the cha Of the wharf to look at her. Judg-
ing rem what could be seen from the wharf
ehe org snip was not in the least damaged,
ana the small stream of water thrown by the
steam pump was sufficient evidence that she
was leaking very little. Scores of people
visited the ship during the afternoon. Thurs
DAY night four tugs, the Storm King, Will
liam Sprague. Elsie and Confidence tried to
pull the ship off, but were unsuccessful.
Yesterday morning the wind came up, and
with 1t a very hige tide. About O'Clock the
huge vessel was seen to waver and few
minutes later slid off the sharp rock, which
has held her prisoner, and glided into the
deep water. A diver went down and exam
ined the vessels hull. A large hole was
found where the rock had entered. 1t was
roughly patched up with canvas and boards.
The two engines on her decks were started,
and soon two pumps were pumping big
streams out of iron pipes protruding from
her sides. She was manned by crew from
the Boston Wrecking Company, under the
charge of Capt. HUMPHREYS. Then the big
tug Storm King made fast to the Robbie and
towed her to this city.
There still remains ABOUT 1900 bales of
soaked rags in her hold which will not be a
total loss. The Boston Tow Boat Company
| got $25. 900, for the job of getting the vessel
| and her cargo off.
