There would be no port on the Gulf shore, south of Bay Chaleur, where goods could not be luid down within a week irom Montreal, during the summer and fall, by steamer, and in wirter by the intercolonial read. New facilities of intercourse and an extensive business connection, must neces- sarily result from the political union of these Provinces.

INTERCOLONIAL TRADE,

Some of our. contemporaries in Montreal and Québec have been directing attention to the possibility of bavigating the Lower St. Lawrence during the winter months. The subject is of sufficient importance to deserve investigation; bat in view of the Confeder- ation of the Provinces being ere long carried into effect, i¢ bas not the same practieal in- terest it would have under other circum- stances, The intercolonial railway, as an essential accompaniment of union, would afford an independent outlet to the ocean at all seasons. With this in view, it is of more importance just now to inquire what accom- | gives the following account of the organiza- snodation there is for trade with the Maritime: tion of the Fenians in Ireland: —

Other places are spoken of in the Sixth Ward, where young and old, black and white, thieves and prostitutes, beggars and drunkards, audevery kind of abandoued characters, herd together, sleeping promiscuously on the floors, and coming forth in the morning to prey on the community. The Captain of the ward rightly speaks of those places as ‘ poisoning the atmosphere’ of the whole ueigh- borhood, aud spreading abroad disease aud pesti- lence.

Such lodying-houses are dens of crime and neats of fever. They poison the city morally and phy- sically. Tere are bread thieves, and robbers, and prostitutes, and murderers. Children are nuc- tered here fur crime,, 1t will be observed that iu a single ward ave an average of six hundred per- sons every night lodging in these nests of crime and disease. ‘The rooms, it will be notreed, have no windows as a geoeral rule, or light or veutil- ation, and are mostly below ground.

Her estimated value, exclusive of a full and valuable cargo, was from £70,000 to £80,000. She was commanded by Capt. J.

She ar- rived at Plymouth op the 4th instant, ard em- barked a large number of passengers, an ususual- ly large proportion of whem were old ¢olonists returning lo Australia, who bad been awaiting her arrival at the various hotels of Plymouth. Iu addition to sixty cabin passengbrs, she had on boatd about ove bundred and forty second and

about ninety, made up her complement of 28% sou's on beard.

Thus adisirably equipped and fully freighted, the London sailed from Plymouth Sound op Saturday, the Gth inst. On the following day she encountered very heavy weather, with rain, boisterous and unsettled weather continuing ou the 8ih. ‘This increased next day to a gale, dur ing Which a series of mivor disasters betel. Her jibboum, foretop-mast, topgallant-mast, and reyal- inast were carried away, and the port life-boat was washed overboard and lost. This was in the morning, and the storm giving no signs of abatement, she was at 3 o'clock next morning put about, Capt. Martin intending to run back for Plymouth to refit. About this time a tremendous

sea, Which terrified even the most hardened sea- men, broke on board, deing great damage ; the starboard life-boat was carried away by the waves, and the cutter stove in. At noon an observation was taken,.the ship. being then in 16 48 N., and longitude 87 West, viz., in the Bay of Biseay, about 200 imies south-west ef Land's end. The violent weather continued, aud at haif-past ten on Wednesday night the ship rolled and pitched fearfully, and shipped such quantities of water on deck as to carry away the engine

the engiae-room, putting out the fires, and thus stopping the engines. The pumps were kept in- cessantly geing the whole night, all the passen- vers who were capable of rendering any help working with the utmost energy to assist the crew in keeping the ship afluat-by bailing with buckets in addition tu the pumps. During that frightful night—the night it will be remembered when thirty vessels were driven on shore in Tor- bay—the gale increased, if possible, in. violence every hour until it assumed the character of a hurricane with a fearful cross sea, which inces- santly made clean breaches ver ‘the hapless vessel. ‘The utmost efforts were made, but,with- out avail, to secure the engine-room hatch, and about 4 a. m. the stern posts were stove in’ by the sea, nud the exertions made to elose them np again were wholly useless, The passengers and crew all this time behaved exceedingly well, and worked orderly and withan energy which showed it was for their lives they strave. But the water continued to increase, and all command of the ship was lost, until it became evident that farther effort was hopeless. It was then, at ten o'clock on the morning of that fatal Thursday, that Capt. Martin had the terrible task of making known to the two hundred passengers that the ship was sinking, and that they must prepare for the worst. She was then as lew in the water as the main chains.
