There were but seven first class passengers in All and a went Well until the morning of the due coming to grief in Xiii to but a few Jhb Jirs after we started. I had finished my.

Which Lay to to boards Nodi thing a la i ily i Lelieve but i cannot say Mth certainty that the of pain was on the watch at this time. I l kind Jit my watch and fetus do it was just �"20 a. But a few minutes previously i had seen Fiat we were in sit of Saiid and though i was. Rather surprised at Titis i naturally did not Gimp them Teri much ought. The ship did not Heel Oyer but kept grating Oti the Sandy Bottom and after a while the engines West Fuu Speed an in. But with tort any effect. Thou a moved from our position. The i p Hen ordered the boats out wit i to. C.ii.,ind sundry observations were taken of Nam the ship and from the boats. This went on f in a few hours the ship sometimes ice aug drive a full Speed i Ead and sometimes full Speed astern. We seemed to into a worse plight every minute. The passengers held a consultation and then went to the Captain and asked Hin to Jettison his cargo and to lighten the ship but he refused. All the efforts of the officers were directed to get the ship off but by noon nothing had been done. We then asked permission of the Captain to let us go ashore in the ship s boats but this we were also refused. The lady passenger w e had Witt us mrs. Farrell behaved splendidly throughout and nothing like panic or fright was noticeable with anyone. About mid Dav after they had wasted acary hours in vain attempts to get the ship off tiie Captain despatched the second officer or. Street with the fifth officer or. Arundel and a Lascar Crew in a boat with instructions to get to to coma in As quickly As possible and from thence apprise the p. & o. Agents at Colombo of our plight. Our position about "70 Miles North of Trincomalee had been ascertained shortly after we struck by observations taken by the officers and it was admitted by the Captain that he a at least 30 Miles out of his course. Tha weather was beautifully Fine and Clear with but Little wind when ail this occurred though towards eve Mug it became a Little rough. . Street having wind Hois Ted a sail in his Little boat and made for trite Tomalie whilst we watched him fill to was lost to syst this was As i have already said about mid Day. Capt. Breezes Killmade frantic endeavours to get his ship put of the mess she was in and. The engineers were kept. Hard at it but we seemed to get stuck Only the faster. Up to this time though we had practically eight or ten hours absolutely nothing had been done to lighten the ship by jettisoning the cargo though the passengers suggested it to capt tin Moh than once. The Shin at this time so far As we were informed it must be remembered had made no water. Towards the afternoon the Anchor was let go and an attempt made to Warp her off into deep water which the boats had found by casting the Lead. This was the beginning of our worst misfortunes f Iii unable to give a consecutive account of what took place during sunday afternoon and night. Sleep we naturally got Little of and by morning we heard that the main Hatch was full of water and the ship was fast. It appears that through some mismanagement we had gone ahead on our author and Fluke right into our Bottom and not Content with this we had gone on moving backs Tunis and forwards and had of course worked a great Hole in the Bottom of tie vessel. Things really began to look serious. During All Liis time by Daybreak next monday morning we had been Twenty four hours aground and no guns were fired to let tie natives know that we were in distress. Tie passengers then went in a body to capt. Breeze and asked him permission for is to take the ship s boats and make for the Shore. At first we met with a refusal but after a Deal of persuasion he gave Way in the mutter allowing col Atkinson and or. H. H. Farrell so go with the third officer to see if a lauding could be effected though he plainly it was quite impossible. This was monday morning. After an interval of some hours col Atkinson returned and stated that thei party had landed without any difficulty whatever and. Upon this All the passengers expressed a wish to go ashore. The ship was filling fast and we naturally desired to be out of danger. Our Luggage was piled up on the main 4eck-to be washed into the sea As it eventually proved but we were not allowed to take it Oil Shore. We took a few " wraps with us and rowed ashore with Little or to difficulty. There we found a Smil monday when we had been nearly 36 hours aground Only a few Hundred bogs of wheat were thrown Over Board i do not know the exact Quantity but it was too late to do any Good As the ship was already foil of water. If ext tuesday morning we rehired again to the ship in the boats and shortly afterwards the Banger Bote in sight and communicated with us. this time the was done for seas had swept the vessel while we were away and our Luggage was gone. The ship was evidently Ettling Down though it was unlikely that she would sink a it under the water As we were aground forwards. We were All taken on Board the " Banger and treated with the it Root kindness by the Captain and officers for which we one and and All owe them Many thanks. Captain Breeze and All the other offices remained by the ship Stith the boats out in ease she should Heel Over suddenly into deeper water and rank. ". / the Banger landed us in Trincomalee on tuesday after soon the loth mst., min Iii our lug Ige and almost All our personal effects which might very easily have been saved. At Trincomalee we were also treated with great hospitality a few of us were put up by this Admiral. Sir Frederick Bie bards and or. A. Bid took in another and every possible attention and kindness were shown us. Later on in the evening the " Clyde arrived from Colombo and Captain Bayley sent for us on Isoard and we left Early next morning for the wreck again. our return we found that the Indus wa6 in still worse plight than when we had . Her Stern was completely under water from the Bridge Forward alone being visible and the sea breaking right Over j her every minute. The " Clyde could not go within a mile of her with any safety so Captain Bay Ley the p. And o. Agent at Colombo Captain Edmund the skipper of. The Clyde and the divers they had brought from Colombo messes Margetson and Jon went in okie of clydes boats to the " we watched them with our glasses. They made a careful Insp Ecron of the wreck and came to the conclusion that noticing could be done to save the cargo a and the ship of course was gone for Ever. Captain Breeze chief officer Ein and the other officers and Crew were still located on tie Indus Forward determined to stick to their vessel to the last. After some considerable time Captain Bayley and tiie skipper of the " Clyde returned and a native Brig was chartered to Lay off the wreck to Render assistance when necessary. Captain Breeze chief officer King Fouth officer dim a i fifth officer Arundel the doctor four stewards the quartermasters carpenters and or about 20 of the Lascar Crew were left with the wreck and we returned once More towards tronc Omalie. The divers say that nothing can be done to the " Indus for months yet. She will most probably break up altogether when the full Force of the Monsoon dashes Down upon her. But we the passengers have lost everything we possess except the clothes we stand up in and i need hardly Tell Yon that we feel very sore on this Point More especially As a Little forethought and consideration for or might have saved the whole of it and i believe a Good portion of the cargo too. However it is no use crying Over spilt milk. We Are All going on with the Clyde to Bombay and from thence Home but most of us have signed a protest addressed to the receiver of wrecks Colombo in which the opinion is expressed that unless a evidence is taken on commission at Home the enquiry held in Colombo will be valueless i am the More sorry to write in the stain i have done in that i have travelled backwards and by steamers of the p. And o. Company a Good Many times and have invariably met with the ext rein Ness of Courtesy and cannot supplement the above narrative by very much. It is capt Bayley s intention to proceed once again to the " Indus going thither in the " Timsah hourly expected from Bombay. The object of this journeys to make the necessary arrangements for watching the wreck until the close of the Monsoon allows of operations or the recovery of the cargo being commenced. As described by our correspondent above the Indus is completely under water the main deck aft being 6ft. And Forward 2ft. Under water. A that is now visible is. The Bridge and the awning. When Captain Barley visited the scene As above described the boat in which he and Captain Edmund of the " Clyde " proceeded to it was Able to get close to the wreck with great difficulty. Captain Bayley managed to climb on the top of the canvass awning and surveyed the scene from that Point of Vantage. The divers were not Able to stand on their legs on the decks where the water was shallowest the Wash of the Waves being far too great.,. The specie represented by one Box. 2,700 sovereigns is now Safe in the p. & o. Office none having been lost. Tie steam tug " Timsah will bring away Captain Breeze and other officers of the " Indus now located in a native Brig close to the wreck and the official enquiry will be held at to Are prop by this week. All the ships books have we believe been rescued. The bad and worthless Are Wuerer imitated or counterfeited. This is especially True of a family Medicine and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon As it had been tested and proved by the whole world that hop bitters was the purest Best and most valuable family Medicine on Earth Many imitations sprung up and began to steal tie notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of h. B., and in every Way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff instead expecting to make Money on the credit and Good name of a b. Many others started nostrums put up in similar style to 11. A with variously devised names in which the word hop or " hops were used in a Way to induce people to believe they Verc the same As hop bitters. A such pretended remedies or cures no matter what their style or name is and especially those with the word " hop " or " hops " in their name or in any Way connected with them or their name Are imitations or counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of them. Use nothing but genuine american hop bitters with a Cluster of Green hops on the White Label and or. Soule s name blown in the Glass. Trust nothing else.

A desire to show How to and How not to take off a skin to bring it to the Tanner in the Best condition has induced affirm which deals in leather and skins to Issue a circular giving the necessary instructions. Very few butchers or banners Realise says the Melbourne Leader the actual loss to them in improperly removing the hide of the animal and it is a matter of the greatest importance to the Fanner or hide dealer that they should be shown How to do it to the brat advantage As by so doing better prices May be obtained. The instructions Are As follows i in the first place Don t kill a calf until it is at least three Days old. In taking off a bide1 or Cal Stan Riever Cut the Throat crosswise n the least. Slit the skin from therris feet to the Tail and from the brisk Efto the jaw then Cut round each leg to the Hoof soft the Hind leg from the Hoof up directly Over the Gambrel and the fore legs in the up wit directly Over the knee to the top of the brisket Bone. This leaves the hide or skin in the proper shape for finishing. Skin the head and legs carefully to avoid cutting them then commencing at the head draw or fist off the skin without any further use of the knife thereby avoiding the holes and cuts that almost spoil 6o Many Calfskin. Some Farmers use a Windlass to draw off the Dairy skins and others use a horse but one or two men can do it quickly and easily. When taken off Lay the Imide or skin Flat upon the floor in a Cool place where the Sun cannot Shine upon it and a Over it with Salt rather Fine Salt being better than too coarse Salt. Don t Roll it up but let it remain in the Salt until take off another then place that " be upon tiie first salting freely As before and so on until you get enough to make quite a pile then commence another pile in tie same manner. Do not be afraid to use Salt freely what the skins do not require will shake off and can be used again. If you prefer to dry out your skins before Selling them be sure that they Are thoroughly cured with Salt before drying them and then that they Are thoroughly dried before being baled up for shipment. Never dry out a skin without having it salted As described to preserve it from Moths and other injury on the hair Side which is liable to occur if the skins Are not properly salted before being dried out. If your skins remain on Hana very Long after being dried out before delivery to Tanner even if salted water them carefully to detect any indications of Moths or Worms on the hair Side and if they Are discovered have the skins vigorously whipped with a stick so often that they shall be wholly eradicated from the entire lot of skins As they often work serious injury in a very Short time. . Chronicle. Over the Sunshine of existence hangs a Black Cloud. 2 with the uncertainty of life is mingled the dark mystery of death while on the one Liand we catch the Welcome sound of a new breath of life that tells of a addition to our species on the other we shudder As we hear the Rushing wings of the destroying Angel the mighty voice of the great influence which rules the universe has pronounced our Fate the dread Flat has gone Forth and every mortal Man is doomed to. Die i but though we cannot prevent can we postpone death ? the question is momentous even if it concern the prolongation of life but by a single hour inasmuch As every instinct prompts us to fight the boldest Battle we can for this glorious Boon of existence. The promptings of instinct arc but the spontaneous voices of nature and it is our duty to obey. But there still remains the question can death be postponed by a single hour yes for the world works in obedience to certain Laws and a study of these prove that those who have the judgment Audi the will to buckle on the shield which nature places ready to their grasp May Ward off the insidious attacks of the implacable enemy of life until in Aripe ibid age the vital faculties gradually decay and the Angel of peace glides softly into our presence leading us As it were in a gentle slumber to the regions beyond the Shadow of the Tomb.
