The Wrecked Steamer Lyonnats. : RESCUE OF THR CAPTAIN AND FIPTSRN OF THE PAS- SENGRRS AND CREW— SAPEZTY OF MES. STRONG AND FAMILY, OF NEW HAVEN. In our telegraphic summary of tho news brought by the steamer Canada to Halifax, we announced yesterday the gratifying intelligence that the captain and fifen other persons who had been wrecked in tae French steamer Le Lyonnais bad been picked up and brought to Bordeaum. No names were given. We learn, however, from one of the New Haven papers, that a private telegraphic des- patch was received on Tuestay, by Mr. Leonard Bradiey, of that city, informing him tbat his sister, Mrs. Strong, ‘and her sop in Jaw and davughter—Mr. aol Mrs, Bailey— who were passengers on board the Lyonnais, were among those who had been providentially reuse by the vessel which had arriy®a at Bordeaux, These are the only names that have 7ct tramepired here o the Bfteen whose safety was ar nounced by the Canada.

Mrs. Bailey, however, declined going ‘m that boat, She declared that she preferred sticking to the ship with the Captain, “Wherever the Captain goes'’—sald she“ go.” Of courre there was no gainsaying her resolution She had faith is the skiJ! and \ntropidity of Captain Be- yeux, and the resuit shor that ber confidence was net misplaced.
