She was blown a long dis- tance off her course. Off Cape Sable she experienced a terrible sleet storm, in which the vessel was hove to. The rigging be- came so thoroughly encased in ice that it was found impossible to work the ship, and the men had to be kept continually at work breaking the sleet off. The vessel lost a number of sails. pnaligticnns Tue sum of $640 was realized at the Bazaar held in the Roller Rink on Thurs- day evening. Everything passed off pleas- antly, and the affair, taken allin all, was a grand success. The Rink is a splendid building in which to hold such entertain- ments. The immense concourse on Thurs- day evening moved about with an ease and comfort which would have been altogether out of the question in the Market Hall, and we have no doubt that it will hence- forth be largely sought after for purposes of public entertainment. —_—_-»>--—-

A LARGELY atiended meeting of the patrons of the Dunk River Cheese Factory was held in the schoolhouse, Central Be- deqne, on Wednesday, 24th inst., Mr. D. H. McDonald in the chair. Mr. Newbery submitted a statement of the business done last year. 492,779 lbs. of milk were re- ceived during the season, a falling off as compared to the previous year. The meet- ing was addressed by the Hon. Alex. Laird, Messrs. Major Wright. Murdoch Ross, Alex.

A house occupied by William Bailey, a farmer, about three miles from here, was burned down last night. Bailey and his hired man perished in the flames. [Bailey

We read a few days ago, says the Truro Sun, that Mr. Alex. McGrath fell down a shaft of the Dufferin Gold Mines, Salmon River, a distance of 180 feet and was killed. Yes, Sandy did fall down the shaft, but he wasn’t killed ; at Jeast he is not dead yet, and he told some of our acquaintances the other day that he had no notion of dying. When a man like Sandy, with youth and vigor on his side, and who fought for his life all the way down that almost perpen- dicular shaft, with a tenacity that would do credit toacat, breaking his fall by the most vigorouse use of his hands and feet, it means something. His finger tops were worn to the bone and his boots were in shreds when he reached the bottom. He deserves to live.
