The Lose of the Wild Deer:
Acoautrr BY A wAsszactsa.
One of the inale passengers relates the
following narrative: I was a passenger
en board the emigraut thip Wild Deer.
My wife and pine children accompanied
me. We left Reston, in Staffordshire,
on Wednesday, arid proceed ed to
Glaegew, where we remaiued two days.
We took the train from Glasgow to
Greenook at break of day on Friday.
Having got all our luggage on board the
Wild Deer, we het sail, and was premed-
-ied by a tug, which left her about three
o'clock, some time before we reached
Aliso. Craig. There WAS a good beeeze
blowing, and we had a spleedid sail
down the Clyde. When we gat into the
Channel the sea, was pretty rough, but
not more so than we expected. Tea
WAS served between five and six o'clock
to thoee who were able to take it, but
we were nearly all sea -tick, and many
were in their berths before that hour. I
was sitting up with the children. After
- the the left, the ship commeuced to
pitch a bit, but all went well uhtil about
a, quarter to eleven o'clock, when we
experienced a brill, shivering, grating
sound. I was yery sick at the time,
and I thought we were on a sandbank.
-Some of the passeingers were just then
on. deck. I had previously got into my
berth, and on hearing the noise I jump-
ed. out, put ou nay trousers, and in leas
than five minutes I was also on deck.
The single men were in the fore part of
the vessel, the single women were in
the aft, while the married people went
pied the centre of the ship. Being in
the middle, we thought the ship was
going to break to piece, The plate -iron
on the roof above our heads was torn
asunder—ripped acress—and she began
to part through the Middle. The
"bossea" we were sleeping in began to
give away, tables fell, the vessel reeled,
the ti•mbera of the bottom creaked, and
we were sure all was gone. The
wholeof us went straight lap on deck
when she began to thump and break.
Then the sailors begged of us to go
down, gs if anything happened we would
the road. That might have
been about five o'clock in the morning.
The masts were thee all right.
We obeyed the entreaties of the sailors
and wept down below. Before we
were ,4.-ny minutes there the main -
meet broke, and fell with a terrific
crash, injuring the bulwarks, and de-
stroying one of the lifeboats on borrd.
The mast broke just beim! the under-
lie*. It was toe iron mese and
noticed sparks flying from it. There
were thee only the seamen on deek, and
everyone thinks with me that it was
little short of a miracle that no °De was
killed. I believe it was -the breaking of
the mast that seved the ship frotn
going to pieces. All the hands on board
were sorry for the captain. He had
thought all was steady, and it was said
that he fainted after she strnok. He
flisplayed great presence of mind, and
his clear voice was heard above the
tumult all over the ship. As for the
men, they all stuck to their post like
Britons, and to them as well ati to the
captain is due the credit alio lives
having been lost. The second mate
told me that he fired rockets, and gotwa
response from the lighthouse. No life-
boat oame to our asaistaace until break
of day.. One of the men in the lifeboat
that came told me its crew tried three
times to reach our ship, but were unable
to de so owing to the heavy tide. They
hovered about for a while, watching if
we were in imraediate danger, but they
were obliged to return to the shore,
being evideetly afraid to come too near
US. It was very dark, but not foggy. I
saw a light, which from itsposition I
think must have been` the coastguards'.
When the sailors hadeverything right
they lowered the boats—of course if it
had been very dangerous they would
have lowered the boats earlier. They
seemed not to know exactly -where they
were, and consequently the3 did not
want to put us in the 'boats too soon.
It might have been between seven and
eight o'clock when the lifeboat came
alongside, and it was about eight when
the first cargo of passengers were let
into it. A large hawser was procured,
and this was fastened round the waist
of each person—man, woman and child
--by the second -mate, and they were
lowered one by one into a number of
small boats. The lifeboat took a way
the first 'cargo. Great difficulty was
experienced in keeping the boats along-
side the vessel, as tee breakers were
teething fearfully against her side. I
stopped on hoard until the last boat but
one was leaving. Tbe single women
were sent ashore first, then the women
with children, and subsequently the
men. There was no confusion whatever
on board. The crew remained until all
the passengers were gone. The captain
was on board when I came off. He
-clung to the ship tenaciously; and even
when he alone was in possession, I
,learned it was with great pleading he
could be got ashore. The small boats
were busy conveying the passengers to
Cloughey until after °Re o'clock. When
I got on land I saw "the miuister" and
observed a postraan come up. I asked
biin what time the mails went oat, and
he said halepa.st one. At two o'clock
all hands were off the vessel. The
people in Cloughey were very kind to
us, but they could not give us much
accommodation in their little village.
The houses there are scattered, the
cottages aire little use for sheltering any
more than their own inhabitants, and
altogethei the place was nearly as bad
as a desolateisland.. A number of the
paissengers tried to get bads and suc-
ceeded, but by far the majority of us
were thrown on the hospitality of the
good Preabyterianiminister of the dile
triot. He took a lot of us—inoluding
my wife, my children, and myself—
into his house, and got us tea and bread,
which, 1. need not say, we heartily
. The neeister opened aIso his
and all the raarried people as
aa slot of girls; stopped in it all
nig t. About a dozen policemen with
rifles kept watch outside the church.
They had been sent from Newtownards
to protects us. We had a fine large fire
burning brightly all night. Some of. us
lay down on the floor, some sat
around- the fire talking of our adven-
tures, while a great many slept in the
pews. These who were not at the fire,
and who, in absence of their luggage,
were obliged to he down in their ordin-
oxy wearing clothes, were pearly starved
with cold. A large number of females
also slept in a barn 'clots° at hand.
The minister had a large quantity of
strew conveyed thither and they
said they felt .quite warm, and slept
first-class. There was a good provision
QX bread and butter for the children,
brought to the church by the minister, runners that make their appearance,
and this kiud-hearted gentleman, not
forgetful of the condition of the older
passengers when they landed, offered
stimulants to those who would partici.
pate in them. Oa Sunday morning we
were taken into a large shop, where we
got an abundant supply of tea and breed
and butter for breakfast. A number of
houses also took in a lot of us, as one
house would only hold a fraction of us.
We were supplied with plenty of fresh
water in a yard adjoining the shop to
which I have just referred. We then
went back to the small old-fashioned
chuteh, where the minister preached tie
a special sermon, and publicly, thanked
the Giver of all good for His kindness
in preserving and proteeting us. The -
service 'was short, as cars were to come
to take us away at half -past ten. They
did not, however, arrive until about
noon. We then bade "farewell" to the
personawho had shown me a much-
needed hospitality, and after driving
aboutfoter hours in a Loney downpour
of rain we reached Newtownards. We
were here taken to various hotels and
houses, where we all had tea once more.
Having thus regaled ourselves, we were
soon on our way to the railway station,
and in a "special" for Belfast, where we
arrived shortly before seven o'clock.
Winter Life in Dakota.
The following extraet from a private
letter recently writtem=iby Mr. James
Thompson, formerly town Clerk of
Goderich, but now of Drayton, Dakota,
to his mother, wilt give an inkling of
what winter life on the plains of Dakota
is like. The letterwasowritten on the
6th of February and proceeds as follows:
We are having a very cold, stormy
winter; I believe the average for the
month of January ha3 been 18 degrees
below zero.; lase year it was only
below on the average, so you see it has
been nearly 18 degrees colder this winter
than last, and it has been stormy so
much so, that -some of those living on
the prairie thia year will try and make
arrangements to live elsewhere during
the winters. I have serious inclinations
that way myself. I eejoyed last winter,
and I like the sunamers, but this winter
has been too much for me. •1 have
had nose, fingers, toes, heels and ears
frozen. George has had his nose,
cheeks and fingers frozen. However,
we are very comfortable in the house,
and the stock are all warm and 'com-
fortable ; but getting the hay in from
the stack is a big job when it blows,
and that is nearly always. , If we had
a stable with a good loft !that would
contain about ten tons of hay, and a
well in the stable, it would' not be so
bad. At present it is h rd on the
cattle coming for water; sometimes
they refuse to come at all. When they
come OUG of the warm stabl -and meet
an atmosphere 200 or 300 below zero,
with a strong wind, they pu right back.
However, this has °ply oc urred once
-or twice during the winter, and three
times we have not attempttd to water
them at all. We have had some genuine
blizzards. You could not sep from the
house to the well, G-eorge and I start-
ed to feed the stock, but he got drifted
out of his course and landed on top of
a straw stack before he knew where
he was. I was behind hineand thought
he was going wrong and called to him,
-but although only a few paces ahead
he could not hear. Then all you can
carry of hay on a fork at those times
don't amount to much, so that you re-
quire to go a great rawly times for a
small quantity. It is then you catch
it; the wind whirls around the stable
and between the stacks, enough to take
away your breath; in fact, you can't
breath till you get under shelter and
even under two pair of mitts and one
of them buckskin your fingers are apt
to freeze. Our stables, what with
manure and snow, are buried almost
out of sight, with a pretty steep, path
down to the door, but the horses and
cattle get 'uted to it and they slide right
down. I expect it to be inneh worse
yet, as we may expect heavy snow
storms this and next month. We had
some very cold trips out to St. Thomas
with our wheat, but we got the bulk of
it mit before the stormy weather came.
Then we commenced to ddraw wq,od
from the river, we have got enough up
to last us for six months, but we must
get up a few more loads yet. I have
not gone out much this winter since
we got through drawing our wheat.
I take care of the cattle and 'George
the horses, with that and cutting wood
it keeps me as busy as I want to be.
We don't get up very early. The fire
is lighted; generally about 9 o'clock, I
get up-betweeu that and ten,sometimes
later, then go and feed the cattle and
milk two cows, then breakfast. It is
then about eleven. After breakfast
clean the stables, and cut woed if the
day is not too stormy, then feed again
about dark, then have dinner and sup-
per in one dish. When it is very cold
we light a fire in the boxstove upstairs,
and we go up their as it is nice and cosy
and warm. While I write it is com-
paratively mild, so we are all down
stairs; mamma is busy knitting; Oscar
has kite fieished writing a letter to hit
playmateothe cat, and George is giving
as a solo on his violin,
Small Fruits For Farmers,
Why is it so few farmers grow small
fruits enough for their own tables'? It
is not on account of the work required
to grow teem, because there is no crop
grown on the farm that will give better
returns for, the amount of labor be-
stowed upon them. There are several
reaeons ; perhaps the greatest, is they
know so little about grCevingthem,
they think it requires a great amount
of labor and skill, and again so many
have bought a few plants and put them
out in the garden, where all of the work
has to be done by hand;hence requiring
so much, time they do not get attended
to. The time isnot fax distant when
farmerwill think as much of having
their pe.tch of strawberries and rasp-
berries as they do of their potatoes and
cabbage. Every farmer's wife knows
how difficult it is to get up a nice meal
early io the summer, without haying a
patch t)f strawberries to rim to, The
plan that is moat practicable for farmers,
as a rule, is to plant mat a few rows in
the spring, on any soil . that is good
enough to grow potatoes. Clay loam is
to be 'preferred, if not too heavy; if it
has been plowed in the fall do not
plough again in the spring, but culti-
vate well and plant early. It will take
but a short time to set the plants, and
they vvill not need any more work until
after seeding is done.
For strawberries plant in rows four
feet apart and twelve to eighteen inches
apart in the row. Cut off the first
also cut off all fruit stems. As soon as
they send out three or four stroug
runners at enCe let them .run, but keep
working with your corn oultivator be-
tween the rows, narrowing the cultiva-
tor ail the rows spread out entil you
get a rosy eighteen or twenty inches
wide,•lettng the plants grow as thick
together as• they choose in the rows.
In the fall, 188 soon as the ground
freezes, cover with straw, putting the
most between the rows and just enough
on the Iplants so you can Bee them
through the straw. Leave it on until
after the fruit comes of. t The plan we
have found to take the lest work
where lend is plenty, is to plant out a
few rode; every spring and work as
above.!It does not take as much work
to set oti and tele care of .e. new patch
as it doeis to ole out the old one. Yon
Aqui leave the old patch to bear another
season Without any work,except meth*
out the lerge weeds that, grow tip among
them. 'Yoe will get a crop of early
fruit, bit i eat so large as from the new
plantation: By planting several sorts,
such as 'Ctescent •Seedling for early,
Wilson andlCaptain Jack for medium,
and Sharpless and Kentucky for late,
you can heve them on the table every
day frorn 'folur to six weeks, and if you
want to 'grew some of the finest and
best flavoted you ever saw, plant a few
of Longfellow, Warren and Bright Ida.
Raspberries should else be planted
so they cant be worked with a horse
and cultivato, r. Put in rows six feet
apart and Nur feet apart in the row.
When uety growth is. two to three feet
high pinch aok, and when side shoots

will keep the ground from drying out
and largely Increase the crop of fruit:
The red yartaties will grow too rank if

Let only lour or five canes grow in a
