Sv. Srepnen,’ Nev: i0. Sad news comes from Oak Willi this {morning. Abont nine o'clock last night Mr. Hiram Jer ins’ house ar barn with their contents were burned to the ground. 'Mr. Jenkins’ sen, a boy filteen years old, was upstairs wien the fire broke out, and in getting out was so bodly burned that he died this morning. The tire caught in the kitehen—proba»ly from a defective flue— aud spread se quickly that there was no time, to save apy furniture or clothing. Three cows were burned and all the farm produce and u‘ensils. Mr. Wm. Christie had been threshing grain aud his threshing machine, which was left on the preimises,

was destroyed. There was no insurance.

Fiattrax, Nov. 10. The most disastrous fire ever known ip Yarmouth County, occurred at Tusket Vil- lage, ten miles from Yarmouth, on Sunday morning at 2 o'clock, wher the extensive steam saw mills and lumber yards, owned by H. W. Blethen & Co., were burned, with dwelling houses. outhouses, ete., oc- cupied by R.“H. VanNerden and Asa Rob- bins, tegether with 1,000,000 feet of lum- ber. The destruction was complete. H. W. Blethen’s loss is $50,000. . The total in- surance is $35,000, divided among the Queen, Imperial, Phoenix, and Northern companies. ‘The fire is suppesed to have been of incendiary origin. These mills were the most complete in the Maritime Provinces. Their annual turnout was

4,00)),000 feet of lumber.

Hatirax, Nov. 10.

Despatches received here show that the steamship Arizona, of the Williams & Guion Line, had a narrow escape from destruc- tion on Friday night while crossing the Great Banks. The steamer is the newest on theline and her time in running is claimed to be the best on record, namely, about seven days. She was regarded as one of the best appointed vessels in the world, and on Tuesday sailed from New York fer Liverpool, having en board 109 cabin passengers, among them many prom- inent pedple in the States. Lverything went well until about nine o'clock on Friday evening. The night was dark but not foggy. The steamer was in charge of the second officer, and keeping a proper course under full speed, when suddenly and without warning there was a terrible crash. Every timber in the vessel seemed to quive, while, almest at the saine instant, the deck be- caine strewn with breken ice. It quickly dawned: upon the minds of Captain Jones and.¢rew, by the presence of a huge white floating object ahead, that the vessel had run inte an iceberg. An examination of the vessel proved such to be the cave. The bows were foind broken into « thousand splinters, while the forward compartment had been crushed in. In this cémpartment were two sailors who were‘almost buried alive in their berths, but: wlid were rescued semewhat injured by their comrades, The greatest consterna- tion e: sted for atime among the passengers who, s.artled by the tremendous shock sus- tained by the vessel, rushed on deck. Through the coolness of Captain Jones and crew, aided by Mr. 8. B. Guion, one of the owners of the vessel, who was on board with his his daughter, a panic was prevent- ed. The damage was found to be of a nature rfot to immediately imperil the safety of the vessel in ordinary weather, and it was decided te put into St. John’s N. F., which, was reached early this morning. It will be a month befere ihe steamer will be ina condition te be able to resume. her place on the line. The passengers are being well cared for by the company at St. John’s, and al! express their gratitude and appreciation for the Captain and crew. They will resume their trip across during the week on the steamers Caspian and Nevada, which will call at St. John’s on their voyages. Tho captain; crew and assengers all agreo that they had a very arrow escape, which was in 2 measure due o the strength and seaworthiness of the vassel,

THE AFGHAN WAR. Cartcurta, Nov. 10.

The principal event of the past week has been the junction of the Cabui and Jellala, This junction having been sfected the Khyber and Jagdalak reute will become the sole line of communication with Cadul.

Everything is going on quietly at Cabul. The English troops are housed.in Shierpur cantopinents which.are very comfortable.

Winter is setting in early.

The suspicion which rested on Yakoo!) ' Khan and wiich was temporarily removed is again settling on him.

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Dear Srr:—You will do many of your readersand myself a very great favor by allowing space in the Examiner for a reply in answer to a letter which appeared therein in October last, over the signature of Edwin Crew, in which he attempted to convince the ‘friends of Wheatley River and vicinity ’ that he was onxious to give ‘‘a correct statement” regarding the suit be- tween us. He says ‘‘varions rumors have been set about sinc» he(Yelland) left for Ontario, all of which are untrue. One of them is as foliows: that Crew paid his (Yelland’s) expenses.” Qn the 23rd of August a friend wrote me from the Island, stating that Mr. Vrew declared that he made no apology, neither knew the suit was ended watil told by Mr. Wm. Hichex some time after I had icft the Prevince. On re- ceiving the above I sent a note to Sir. Crew telling him what [ had heard and ask- ed him if the report was true,

He admits that 1 asked him “‘ a few ques- tions in a gentleman-like manner,’ but fail- 2d to tell the public he had nox the dignity or manliness to reply, and the reason fisfobvious. I wish your readers

to understand that what Mr. Crew professes to have taken from a letter aent by me to Mr. .\vm._ Hichox

in his letter, within quetatien- points, is net mine. He never took from my letter what he says he did. Mr. Crew would hike for the publle to believe thar I was afraid to meet him in the Supreme Court. After the matter was put in the hands ef my attorney I never asked Crew to settle the case. He wrote me once, twice and again with a view of stopping the suit, at the same time acknowledging it was in my power to injure him. | always gave him to understand that 1 would not accept any of his proposals, and that I wanted an apology, and that nothing less would prevent it from being taken to Court. Mr. Crew is certainly to be pitied, seeing he has had todo with men whe have made glaring mistakes. No less personages than Judge Alley and the Hon. N. McLeod are among the number who have made mis- takes, so says Mr. Crew. The former did not take down my statement as given ; the latter dated Crew's apology 23rd day of May, 1879, instead ot Dec., 1878. Crew, with a view to injure my reputation, cireu- lated throuzh the negborhood of Whestly River that he signed no apology. In doing so, he virtually charged iis attorney with having forged. his name. , In his letter of the 8th ult., he says I have been informed that my attorney signed it for me. Does he still insinuate that the honorable gentleman did so on his own responsibility. In a letter kindly sent me by Crew's attorney in answer to a ques- tion asked by me relative to the suit, I take the following: “This is the character of the apology by me, submitted lo Crew, and approved of by him before the same was signed by me.” Crew says the paper I hold, ‘at any rate, is no retraction.” He denies having charged mé with perjury; but i de- clare he did. The charge is in my possession in his own handwriting. The public will see whether he retracted or not. His apology contains the follewing: In the matter of the suit pending between me and the Reverend John Gibbs Yellandé for slander, I hereby state that I did not charge him with telling lies; if I did so state it was in tho heat of passion (which I deny) I retract the charge.” Crew says he has nothing to dowith the expense Yelland has ineurred. Perhaps the person whe offered to fee a luwyer for him, vrovided the suit went to work, has been generous enough to share the burden. The suit Nas not cost me one cent. Someone inust bear the expenses. Those whe know more about law than wwyself, can form their own opinion as te who foots the bill in a case of this kind. Crew, in- his letter, asks your readers to compare what T had written my fricads’ with what T had written him &c., and asks ‘‘Isita vice ora virtaco?’ The roason of the disparity be- tween what I wrote Mr. Crew, and.whai I wrote Mr. Hichox ni ust be attributed fo the fact that during the six days which elapsed between tiem, I had received additional }information as to what Crew was saying |about me, hence in the face of clear, con- i yincing demonstrative evidence, f eould no | longer hope the malicious man to be inno- eont. A gentleman told him many months avo that Yelland had shown him great mersy, otherwise he would have been in | jailfora time. He appeared to'show signs of | repentance and appreciation of my forbear- | ance, but I had no sooner left your be:uti | ful Island when he began to say I had left | with a lie in my mouth, &., &c.

He must repent and turn to Ged before ‘he can possibly rise in’ the estimation ef persons who have known him from a
