The Missouri towed the Dinmark until the 6th, when the jatter seemed abourto sink. At first the Missouri was only able to take abvard about 200 of the Danmark’s pasengers, but after having jettisoned a portion of her eargo, she found accommodation for all the crew and the passengers. The Missouri proceeded to the Azores, and left there the first and second officers and 320 of the pas- gengers. She then continued on her jour- ney to Philadelphia with 340 passengers

engine pipe on the Dsomark burst and the engineer was killed on the spot. The ship was badly dam«ged, and in consequence of this damace, together with the breaking of the shaft, the vessel was helpless in the heavy seas that prevailed.

Meury George on Wages.
Mr. George had a conversation with the eminent pwlitical economist, Professor Thorold Rue rs, &a few days ago. Mr. Rogers told him that a calculation he had recently made showed that the wages of a common laburer in the days of Henry VIL. would be equiva ent in the money of our day to £145 perannum. Mr. George after- wards learned that the present wayes of a coal miner in good times were about £65 ayear. Another of Professor Rogers’ re- marks was that the location of textile in- dustries in the North of England instead of the South war due to the fact that factories and machinery were during the 17th cen- tury subj sted to local taxation in the South of Megland, but were exempt in the North.

Triple-Link Anniversary. —
Yesterday was the 70th anniversary of the introduction of Oddfellowship in America, The fraternity in various parts of the Lower Provinces have noted the event in a becom. ing manner. No greater loyalty to the Order was shown in any part of the jurisdiction than among the Odds of P. E. Island. <A_ grand rally was brought together by special and regular trains at Charlottetown on Thursday and the exercises are reported to have been interesting and attractive.
The above extract appeared in the Fred- ericton Rep wter of the 20th inst. We are sure that the writer is not a member of the fraternity of Oddfellows. At any rate, ime past, present and future is of no ac- count with bim—in tact, he rises superior to the rest of the race, whose actions and words are only received, if worthy of re- memberance after they have been perform. ed or uttered. Is he the victim of halluci- nation? No, emphatically, no. The writer is a seer, and he has but given expression to what has already been mysteriously re vealed to him of the ceremonies of Natal Day celebrations, which take place to- morrow.
