OFF ANTICOSTI,

The S.$. “Coban” to the Relief of the S. S. “Idaho.”

| 1 ' ;

(From a Special Correspondent. )

Wuen the S. 8. Coban, of the Black ‘Diamond Line, arrived at Quebec during | the course of her last intended trip to Char- \lottetown and Sydney, her commander, (Capt. Robert Fraser, received orders to proceed at once to Anticosti Island to the assistance of the wrecked steamer Idaho. The Coban arrived upon the scene of the disaster at dawn on Monday, the 28th ult., | and Capt. Clift, representing the London ' Assurance Co., the Insurance Co. of North ; America, and a host of other companies, | was found in charge of the cargo on behalf ;of the underwriters. With considerable aseonie owing to a strong breeze and the

uncertain condition of the anchorage, the j assisting steamer drew alongside, and the | stevedores, Messrs. Edward Burns & Son, | of Quebec, under the immediate supervision of Capt. Clift, succeeded by working con- ; tinuously and under many disadvantages in transferring the most valuable portion of the cargo, consisting of cheese, lard, flour, ‘canned beef and leather, to the hold of the Coban. About 500 head of cattle had pre- viously been landed upon the island by steam wreckers, whence they were subse- quently shipped to Gaspe. An immense quantity of grain, totally submerged, and some copper that could not be reached, had te be abandoned to the mercy of the elements.

TheS. 8. Idaho, commanded by Capt. Brotherton, carrying a cargo estimated at about half a million dollars, and oneof the most valuable that has ever been shipped from a Canadian port (which, however, was fully covered by insurance), grounded upon an unknown reef lying about three miles to the southward of Anticosti, and about four and a half miles from South Point Light, or Bagot’s Bluff, on the morning of Wednes- day, July 23rd. The crew shortly after- wards abandoned the ship, leaving her in charge of her officers. The Idaho is steel- built, at present in the employ of the Do- minion Line, and has a carrying capacity of at least 6,000 tons, all of which was occu- pied by this most valuable cargo. It is the general opinion that she will eventually be proclaimed a total loss unless some effort is at once made to raise her, as she is gradually getting into deep water. Your correspon-

are in progress with this end in view.

Anticosti has long been considered an extremely dangerous coast, and has rolled up quite a record of disasters. South Point, to the westward of which the hull of the unfortunate Idaho lies, is situated in lat. 49 deg. 4 sec., lon. 62 deg. 15 sec., and it is quite near this spot that the Shandon met a similar fate some years ago. The island is 125 miles in length and 35 miles at its greatest width, and contains 236,000- 000 acres. It is at present owned by an English Syndicate, locally represented by Mr. Robinson. There is no history of im- portance connected with with it, but in the absence of facts, fiction will always create a habitation of its own. At few years ago, a young lady possessed of a romantic turn, communicated to J'it-bits, an English pub- lication, a roseate description of the island, revealing glimpses of deserted bowers, en- chanted grottos, babbling rills, and bearing upon it the balm of many summers.

Asa result, the proprietor of the paper referred to, was, on the following day but

dent has just learned that some negotiations '

is no gold. The population comprises chiefly French Canadians, and is estimated at about 500, which is doubled during the fishing season. The climate is ble»k in

|summer, and during six months of the year

the inhabitants are shut in by surrounding

)|ice, although the winter is less severe than

upon the inner mainland. ‘There is a resi- deut Catholic missionary, but other denom- inations are unrepresented. A Methodist clergyman labored there some years ago, but died upon the Island, and his place at present remains unsupplied.

Much credit is due to Capt. Fraser of the Coban for the manner in which the ship in his charge was managed from the beginning to the termination of the voyage. Ina gentleman. so young as Capt. Fraser must be, one would naturally be struck with his innate shrewdness and practical knowledge. This wrecking operation is said by experts to be the most successful ever performed in Canadian waters. Mr. Lightburn, the chief engineer, is a man of refinement, and knows his business. Your correspondent would also like to say a few commendatory words of Mr. P. McLennan, the steward of the Coban, and a native of P. E. Island, who seems to be regarded as a favorite by all who have the good fortune to be placed under his care; and also of Mr. Muggah, chief officer, whose bluff, hearty wit, that smacks of the “briny,” is calculated to ‘‘set the table on a roar.”

The desirability of this route as a source of health, and the splendid accommodations of the Coban in particular, can be seriously vouchsafed for by your correspondent.

The orchard on this property has been set out with 2,200 apple, and 200 plum trees, all doing well, and calculated to yield good returns. There are fifty head of cattle to be seen grazing on the rich pasture lands. Two commodious barns have been erected, one of which cost $1000. Mr. Spence is a well known operator in short lumber and ships largely from Moncton.
