Prussian Government has taken any steps to

inews that the Duke of Ratibor had been gent

Pope upon the anniversary of his entry into

WRECK OF THE STEAMSHIP “ HERMANN,”
AND LOSS OF 250 LIVES.

By the arrival of the China mail we have
particulars of the wreck of the Pacific Muil
Company’s Ship Hermann, which struck on a
reef ubout 75 miles from Yokohama. She
was on her way to Sugar Strajts, which divide
Yezo from the mainland. The Imperial troops
have begun to move northwards, and the Her-

| many had on board 350 soldiers, together with

acrew of 80 men, Of the latter. 58 remain
wlive; of the former, it is impossibly to say
how many, Oaptain Newell saying that ke can-
not estimate the Joss of liie. But for his
account of the wreck it would seem that be-
tween 250 and 300 had perished. Captaiy
Newell stat@s that three of the b
washed away by the sea. Many of the people
jumpzd into the boats, but ouly one bous got
safe to the shore. Lights being shown from |
the shore enabled the boatto steer into a small |
harbor. About midnight the ship parted |
amidships, the sea breaking over both fore and

with the boat tigt had reached the shore |
in safety overnight came off to take the sur-|
vivors from the wreck. Many had been washed |
int the sea dyring the night, and some who |
were clinging to the rigging refused or were |
unable to jump into the boats. On shore the |
people were yery backward in giving any fur

to bring them on to Yokohama, but they would |

history of the country. This opinion, to-
gether with his well-known military and am

The next great steps in the same direction |
now considered by President Grant are the
acquisition of Canada and ihe West Jndia Is-

his desire for the Sandwich Islands, and other

alluded to the fact of bis having been twenty

reference to what Pictou was when he came
to it, noticed the improvement in its Mercan

and others, whose energy had cantributed to

the Major, mmstead of merely vegetating

the true interests of this County aod the
country at large. Le made special reference
to our mineral resources, and hoped the Gov-

Tris seldom that we hear much of the sayings
of that large and influential party who firmiy
believe (as we do) that the safety and honour
of Great Britain depend in @ very great mea-

her colonies. We hear enough and tu spare
of the windy utterances.of such men ace Goid-

degenerate Engiishmen, but the more patriotic
mu, such as the Marquis of Normachy, and
others, who thurouzhiy believe that ihe Coio-

source of pride, but a source of pewer also,
are seklova heard from egeept in times of dan-
ger an:l doubt, when, as in the eventful winter
of 1861-2, they made their influence felt. We
have referred on one or two ogcasions to the
Colowial Society which has lately been estab-
lished in England, and we have done so with

found exceedingly beneficial; it will enable
those who do take an interest in the welfare of
