These journals are naturally very angry with an independent journal, which, while not afraid to express its own opinions upon the subject, is de- termined not to embarrass the Government.”

Mr. McKenzie'’s Unfair Comparison.

Tue Patriot says Tue Examiner is ‘wrong again’; but the /utriot is (politically) wrong all the time; and the comparison instituted by Mr. A. B. McKenzie, between the t:xes per head ot thépeople of Canada ard the United States, is essentially aud radically wrong. We have to thank the Patriot for refer- ring to the matier, and we accept the opportunity it effords to place the unfair- ness of Mr. McKevzie’s comparison in a still clearer light.

The “wrong” of which Tuz Ex AMINER /8 guilty is the omission from the expenditures of the Government of the jJarge, extraordinary and abnormal out- lay caused by the Riel rebellion; but it is. of course,. quite right for Mr. Me- Kenzie and the Patriot to add this extraordinary and abnormal expenditure —an expenditure belongiog to this year only—to swell the total expenditure of the Government of Canada in a compari son with the ordinary expenditure of tae

Federal Government of the United States !

But let that pass. The Patriot does not and cannot deny THz Examiner’s

statemeot that uo fair comparisou can be made between the expenditures of two Governments established on bases which are widely different, and carried on under widely different circumstances. attempts to bolster up its

anchor in the harbor. At daylight the storm increased to a howling hurricane. Steam was kept up, but it was found im- possible to hold, The steamer commenced dragging on shore at ten, on the morning of the 24h, and fouled with the schooner Dictator, of Lunenburg, carrying away the latter’s jibboom and all her head gear, besides causing other damage. The Starr had thirty feet of her quarter rail torn off, the starboard boat smashed, davitts carried away, after-house stove in and saloon windows broken on the starboard side. Getting clear she drifted on to the schooner Senator, of Lunenburg, grinding her bow fearfully. The anchor fouled with the schooner’s chains and the steamer became manageless. She grounded heavily on the beach, but at noon the gale moderated and she hove off by great exer- tion, shipped her chain and was docked. No one was injured. The officers and crew did their utmost. No blame is attached to to them and she will proceed as soon «as possible. :

THE DEATH OF A P. E. ISLANDER GREAT AUGUST CYCLONE,

iN THE

Nearly every vessel that has arrived at this city from a foreign port during the past week, says the Philadelphia Press, has brought an account of a terrible hurricane on the 25th of August, during which they suffered more or less damage. The first craft to report loss of life in this cyclone is the ship Shelburne, Captain Murphy, which anchored in the river opposite Kaighn’s point ‘Tuesday afternoon. During the tierce hurricane Joseph Corish, 41 years of age, a native of Prince Edward Island, and a seaman, was blown out of the rigyving into the sea and lost. Capt. Murphy recounted the story of the voyage thus: ‘We left Glasgow on the 3rd of August and had pleasant weather until the 12th, when a heavy gale from the north struck us in lat. 47 50, lon. 38. This storm made the vessel tremble for about two hours, but we weathered it without accident. From the 12:h to the 25th good weather’ prevailed. On the latter date we were skipping along under all sails, and a good breeze was blowing from the southwest. It increased in velocity, however, during the morning. la N. lat. 38.45, W. lon. 61.55, a fierce hurricane broke upon us. The sails began to rattle in the gaskets with a noise re- sembling a heavy thunderstorm. In a short time the foretopgallant sail was blown right out of the gaskets. A few minutes later the maintopgallant- sail was split by the wind, and it was flap- ping about in the rigging in a dangerous -mapner. I ordered three sailors to go aloft and furl the sail, Among the men was Coris’. With great difficulty they reached the maintopgallantmast yard. The wind was roaring through the sails and whistling about the rigginz, while the split sail was fl)ing first to the port and then to she starboard side of the ship, making their position very hagardous. ‘the men had to cling to the yard and wait for an opportu- pity to catch the looses sail. Corish, who

was an excellent sailor, grasped — the sail as the wind carried it past him. It was going with lightning velocity, and carried the man from his

position on the yard, swinging him clear of everything into the air. He ,dangled in the air for a few seconds, holding on to the flying piece of sail, and then the whirlwind caught him and carried him into the sea. I was standing at the rail of the ship when he went down, and watched him to make his appearance on the surface. He did not come up. The force of the fall must have killed him. The other meh succeeded in furling the sail, but they exercised great care and caution, as their position was a most perilous one.”
