Fi^fe thotgh have worked their best and SOsb. recovered hundreds of the bodies it becomes more and more incompre hensible how. it was possible for the ves sel to have been driven in where she now lies. It is the opinion of the fishermen of the locality that she struck on the Grampus Reef about half a mile east of the scene, and ran along the reefs until she brought up against Ihe fatal rock. She is now lying on "her port side, well under water from amid ships ; the hull is almost abreast of the reef and forms a sort of breakwa ter between it and the shore of the island, which appears only about forty yards off. All that portion of the hull from the forward hatch is severed as completely as if it had been cut with machinery. The sea has caused it to forge ahead thirty feet or so, leaving a gnp or passage way, where the small boats are continually running in and out and carrying curiosity seekers from the shore of the wreck and back.

It was a small rock, or rather that por tion of it which was above water, scarcely thirty feet square, and upon this two hundred or more human be ings stood for two or three hours, until rescued by boats from the main land. TIIE ROMANTIC INCIDENT of this terrible calamity is the discov ery that one of the men, a common sailor, and one whose life was sacri ficed in efforts to save others, was a young woman of about twenty or twenty-five years of age. Her sex was not known until the body was washed ashore and the rude clothing removed preparatory for burial. She had serv ed as a common sailor for three voya ges, and was a favorite shipmate with all. She is described as having fewer of the vices incident to a sailor’s life than is usual, but she was, neverthe less, as jolly an old tar as any of them. One of the survivors of the crew iu speaking of her remarked, “I didn’t know Bill was a woman. He used to take his liquor as regular as* any ot us, and was alwayfe begging and Steal ing tobacco.

All along the coast, a few rods back from the shore, are hundreds of rude, plain, unpainted coffins, piled up in a hideous, conglomerated mass. In front arc long lines of dead men, women and children, in all the various positions which result from sudden death. There was a woman with her hands clasped In prayer and a peaceful. expression upon fier face; then a man who had evidently perished in terrible agony; then, most horrible of all, a little girl staring sightless, a babe with its arms clasped about the peek of v its mother, and the dead woman clinging to her child so firmly that they had not been parted; was but one of the many scenes which made strong men weep. ONE VERY HANDSOME WOMAN, with long, flowing dark hah 1 , had died seemingly in the effort to screen her beautiful person from rude gaze.. .Al most her only -raiment -was a night wrapper, and that was clutched about her persoD. Another woman, lying the one \yhere all the women and children were drowned as they lay in their bunks. Scrambling along the deck, guided by the rope from above, and assisted by one of the divers who has undertaken to conduct me through the wreck, I reach the companion way. If the sight in the hold among the cargo was horrible, the one that now met my gaze was ten times more so. There, lying in immense heaps were hundreds more bodies. They look ed lor all the world* as if they were alive, with arms dislocated, eyes star ing wildly, faces grinning as it were at you and moving backward and for ward with the under-current; some were dressed ; many were half nude. Children were clinging to their moth ers and stout men were clasping their wives and seeming as if they met their fate with calm resignation. No de scription of the bodies brought to the surface could couvey an idea of the horrid sigh t in that cabin. I dose my eyes aud motion to my conductor my readiness to leave. I have seen enough in that ebarnd house, the recollection of which will never lade. My conduc tor motions me toward the steerage cabin, where the men were by them selves and where there was such a rush for the companion way. Peering down into that cabin I saw a similar picture of death. Bodies of stalwart men, old and young, were hustled together on the stairway, giving—from their distended nostrils, gaping mouths aud staring, glossy eyes—some conception of the terror which seized them as they vainly struggled to reach the deck, but were prevented by the waves which swept over the ship a9 she heeled over $nd filled the cabin. From another part of the vessel I obtained a view of THE ;3LEEPING APARTMENT. found. ■ There are in Alsace and Lorraine eight hundred and twenty-eight inonas- steries and colleges, providing accom modations for eight thousand inmates, all under monastic laws and discip line. A French commission have report- edjthat the inordinate use of absinthe is-occassioning considerable loss of life in France. They recommend that it be classed as one of the ^poisons, and its sale in France be interdictqfl. In Massachusetts, by an act of Legislature, a dozen hen’s eggs must weigh twenty-four ounces, no matter what arrangements the hen has made to the contrary. The roosters have voted, in convention, to retire in dis gust, and to give way to the members of the Legislature. The Tun Republicans, one of our Mexican exchanges, says it is reported that M. de Lesseps entertains the idea of cutting’a ship canal through the Isth mus of Corinth, where excavating less than five miles in length would open communication between the Gulf of Lepanto with the Gulf of Egina and make Morea an island. Not only are the very fine t of oranges raised iu Florida, but also in California. In orchards near Mar tinez, thirty miles from San Francisco, oranges famous for size and quality are produced, and also in the Vallego range in Sonoma Valley, forty miles from San Francisco. They are said to equal those from Southern Califor nia. They sell at SI. 50 per hundred. The pious ladies of Des Moines, Iowa, visited the abandoned faraales of that city last week and urged, them to'quit their sinftiihabits 'of life. ’’Fhe abandoned females asked the pious ladies if these latter would find them homes and furnish them vrith,other occupation. The pious ladies said that was wandering from the arrange ment, and elevated skirts and their Hoses, and in a second the : abandoned females were abandoned. ....... «raS4F«JI ** *• •MfU It I ri«{ft9/t r >a 8 bustle e^mblaTjt* Backgammon^ What flowers ’ire there between h lady’s ^ose and chin.? ...Two-lips. • e. popular business with voung ^lufsbandrjr; and niany ofltejn ijiake a great bustle about it, too.
