It then strack me that he wished me totarn I6 wins as indicated by the signal and it was his intention to ircle around the second division, leaving them on the port hand Having the | fullest confidence in the great ability | of the commander to manceuvre the «juadron without even risk of collision, I ordered the signa! hoisted as an indica tion that I understood. When the signal was hauled down the helm of the Camperdown was put hard-a-port. At the same time the helm of the Victoria was starboarded. I watched very carefully the helm of the Victoria as indicating the purpose of her signals, As the two ships turned towards each other, seeing that the helm of the Victoria was still hard-a-star- board, I directed the captain of the Cam- perdown to go fall speed astern with the starboard screw in order to decrease out cirele of turn’:g. Seemg that a collision was inevitable I then ordered him to gu full speed astern with both engines, but before our speed could be materially checked, the helm of the Camperdown } struck the Victoria on the starboard bow about twenty feet before the turret, and crashed into the ship almost to the centre line, the four and aft lines of the ships at the time of the collision being inclined towards each other at an angle of about 40 degrees It was, I think, quite two minutes before the Camperdown was able, although going with full speed astern with both engines, to get clear of the Victoria The watertight doors of the Camperdown had been closed by my orders before the collision oceurred See ng the critical condition of the Victoria, which seemed to he settling down by the head, boats were immediately prepared and the boom boats were got ready to be hoisted out, when the oper pennant was hoisted by the Victoria and the signal was made not to send boats A very few minutes later she heeled over to starboard and turning bottom upwards dixappeared Phe time that elapsed be- tween the occurrence of the collision and the disappearance was Only about thirteen minutes

The question naturally arises whether there would have been anv collision if the Camperdown had obeyed the order promptly U pon this crucial point seem- to rest the question of responsibility. Ir is due to the dead as well as to the living to await the evidence that will be brought out in the course of the official investiyva tion before arriving at any positive opinion a* to the cause of the awful calamity

How te Cure Hay Property.

Prof. Saunders, of the Experimental Farms, in addressing the Russel County Farmers Institute on Saturday, dwelt on the high prices obtainable Europe. He said that if farmers wanted to get the benetit of the $40 per torn which hay was selling for in England, they must send it there properly cured; that is, re- taining its color, favor and aroma. The best hay to secure this was to eut the hay in the forenoon, turn it in the early after- noon and eouk it before dewfall; let it re main so next day, and on the third day | apread it for a time and then house :t. Clover hay brought the highest prices in | the Mother Country, Prof. Saunders, | however, warned his hearers that the practice of selling hay off the farm was dangerous if kept up, for hay land became rapidly impoverished. Hay was best fed to the farm stock, and thus returned to | the land as a fertilizer

I fished there last fall, late in- November. Thomas Kickham and John | Darrach werewith me. The tide was a neap tide—pretty low. The wind has an effect upon the tide: it does not fall so low when it is stormy. I fished that day about the middle of the front of Lamont’s farm. The depth of water was about 44 feet. We gut av sters—about half a bushel in our boat, and Darrach got more in his hoat. There are oysters there yet and always were ovsters there. We used a rake, We intended to leave a stake and a hoat to mark the place where we had been fishing. We got nto Darrach’s boat and puta stake beside his aml then went ashore. Our own boat broke away and there was nothing left but the stake put down where Darrach fished. We con- cluded that that would do and came away. We then went straight to Mr. Shaw’s farm.

We had a rake, and I went out twice amd picked them up with my hands in At the first piace the water wax about two feet deep. I have got oysters there long ago, before the diggers were there. I called the attention of the MePhee party to the oysters that I had in my hand. We left the boat where we were fishing oysters, and three men in her, and went to Shaw’s farm again. Mr. Shaw and Mr. Shaw’s brother were there. We could see the boat. We went First we saw the bush opposite MePhee’s shore; the bush was in the oyster bed.

The spring is about middle way between MeKenzie’s bridge and the mouth of the creek. When I fizhed last fall the tide was half low for tishing oysters. I remarked that day that there was no trouble for any man to cross the creek above the spring that day.

Cross-examined by Mr. Davies—Over 20 years ago I used to fish oysters a good deal in the summer. Since then I have not fished, but I have been there digging mussel mud. Shaw asked me to go down and overhaul] the oyster bed and see if there were any oysters there. I agreed to

Kickham and his son went with me. It was on Saturday, 26th November—a little after sunrise. The tide was as low as it would go with a neap tide. The wind was northeast. We walked on board and went across. The boat eould go on the flats when we got there, but not very far in. We all knew where the ovster beds were. We sounded with a batten and measured with a square. I found the depth of water four and a half feet. I tixhed with a single rake. We understood from Mr. Shaw that that was the place. The oysters were not large. When on Shaw’s farm I conld not see the shore in the very cove, but I could see where the stake was. We saw the stake from the road when pretty handy McFadyen’s house. We got up on no fence. The tide was too high to see hummocks that day. Mr. Shaw sent me word that he wished me to go again last Saturday evening. I just got there at low tide. I picked up oysters at the depth of a foot and a foot and a half. The MePhee party pulled out the stakes put down by Mr. he before we went upon Shaw’s farm. We could see the trees that Shaw put down, and we could see the three men in the boat. Off MePhee’s farm at ove | place I could see pretty well in to high

THE KYPHOSIS QUESTION.
