Schr. Ada R. of and from Charlottetown, laden with oats, for Europe, was driven ashore by the ice at Bear Island, Strait of C She is likely to become a total wreck. — Hei Ahan whe bury Despatch to Sun, Jan. 28. The British brigt. Elmira, Capt. Nichols, from Pernambuco, with a cargo sugar to Cork, for orders, arrived in that harbor oe Tuesday. The captain reports that in latitud 50 north, longitude 9.10 west, he passed, on the 13th inst., at noon, a quantity of age extending nearly i+ miles. 1t was com- posed of crimson. cushions, spars, broken boats, life-buoys, both air (India-rubber m- flated) and the common kind, and other por- tions of the ship, apparently new and bright varnished. There was Z quantity of dunuage timber, with bamboos, matting, etc. The captain is of opinion tht it must have been a collision between two large ships to cover such an area, but does not think it could have been steamers’ fittings. wreck- LOSS OF THE L. D. V. CHIPMAN. Betrast, Wepnespay.—The ship ‘‘ Wan- lenah,” of Pictou, Captain Wilson, which arrived here last night, reports the particu lars of a melancholy shipping disaster, re- sulting in the loss of five lives. I[t appears that on Saturday morning last, when the *€ Wanlenah” was about 115 miles W.S. W. of the Fastnet, a suall beat was observed at @ great distance off; and on bearing down it was discovered that an var had been put up for a mast, with an old coat fora sail. Ow- ing to the boisterous weather great difficnl- ty was experienced in getting close to the boat, but after this had been accomplished a eung man covered with blood was ound lying in the boiteum, and in a completely exhausted condition. After being ton board means were adopted for bringing Fin round, when -he stated that his name waa William Harrison, ordinary seaman, a native of London, and belonging to the ship “‘*L. D V. Chapman,” of Prince t:dward Island. boand for Queenstown for orders, waich hal capsized early on Friday morning. Owing to the sud- deness of the catastrophe, Captain Archibald, belonging to Cape Breton ; Frank Hand, cook, Charlottetown, P. bk. Island; Martin Cava- nagh, seaman, of St. John’s; and two otuer seamen, names unknown, one belonging to Falmouth and the other to Cape Preton, were all lost. Two boats, one containing a passenger (Capt. McLeod of this Island) anu 3 seamen. and the other three seamen managed to get clear of the vessel, and, after a length of time, the ship ‘* Hurin,” of Londonderry, bore down, and the boat containing the pas- sengers got alongside, when all were taken aboard. ‘Lhe other boat also got alongaide, and two managed to get aboard, but owing to the snapping of the rope the boat broke advitt, with Harrison in her, and owing to the rough weather the ‘‘ flurin” was unable to azaiu come up with it fer some twenty-live hours he was tussed about, suffering frightfully from injuries about the head, owiuz to a heavy spar falling on him when the vessel was capsized, when, Inckily, the boat was! qb3erved by the **Wanlenali.’) He was brought here, and speAks highly of the treatment received at the hands of Captain Wilson and John Ward, mate, the latter belonging to Glasgow. Liverroot, Wednesday.—The ‘‘ Hurin,” at Liverpool, reports that on January 10th, in a heavy gale, she fell in with two boats contaim- ing seven of the crew of the barque ‘‘L. D. V. Chapman,” of St. John’s. After leaving Quéenstown the captain and four others were drowned. One of the men in the boats was disabled, and could not be got on board the *¢Harin.” Other versels were in the neigh- borhood and might pick him up. 4 . RAPID VOYAGE. The barquentine ‘‘ W. D.
