Wreck of Bark Shetland.

A cable despatch by way OF London
announces that the bark Shetland has
been totally wrecked at Cape Corri-
entes. Crew saved. There is only one
American bark by this name, owned by
John S. Emery & Co. Of Boston, and
built at the old Hall shipyard in ELS
worth in 1878. She was of $50 tons net.
Her dimensions were length. 143 feet;
breadth, 1873 feet; depth, l7.6 feet. The
brief item of her loss brings a strange
juxtapostion of words, recalling to the
old-timers among the sea-farlng men or
Ellsworth the fact that Corrientes, the
name of the cape where the Shetland
was wreck, was also the name of am
other bark built in Ellsworth some
forty years ago and lost years ago in
the Pacific. Cape Corrientes is on the
west coast of Mexico.-Ellsworth

principal reasons ia the fact that he
