The HoMrNc SHIPS.

The good ship st. Nicholas, with hel
several hundreds of people and her valu
able cargo, has dropped anchor in hel
home.port of Astoria, to the great salts
faction of her owners and the families
of the men on board. We are all glad
to welcome them back from Alaska; hel
arrival took on greater zest Of com
fort and pleasure, by reason Of the
solemn fact that her sister.ship in this
same venture OF the north, the John
Currier, will never again show her cut
water in harbor waters anywhere in the
world.
The federal revenue cutter Manning |:
rushing to the relief of the stranded
crew Of the Currier up on the bleak
Alaskan coast, and will soon land the
men back in Seattle or Astoria, per-
haps none the worse for their exper.
fence, but wiser by reason of dan.
gerous and unhappy experience incident
to a wreck of the sort. They win find
the same cordial welcome awaiting them
here as though they had come in, in due
course. and a bit amphfed by the mar
row escape they have had from rigors
entirely unlocked for.
The ship that never comes back al
ways leaves lingering sadness in the
minds of those who were most nearly
interested in her, and she is never for
gotten but is always reverted to in a
mournful way that begets kindly
thought of her, and SO it will be in this
port, with the memory of the John
Currier!
