The bark which was in collislon with the steamship was bonnd down the Channel in ballast fur CardIft, when tho colliston occurred. The steamer Glengarry, of Middleborough, was most fortunateiy pass- fug at the time. The offlcers the Glengarry lmmediately did all In their power to sucvor the unfortunate passemgers. Tho boats were manned without delsy, and soc- ceeded fn resculng 171 persons.
