Were towed out with two of the brig’s boats and the pilot boat. At five P. M. the pilot and ali the shore hands left the veasel, and one of the brig's boats was gent to get some itnes which had been left on the reef, Ata quarter past six the boat returnea and-was taken on board the brig, which was at this time fully turee miles from shore, with wind very light. north by west. During the evening, which was cloudy and dark, it was found that the prig had drifted inshore with a strong current; the boats were manned and sent ahead to tow her off, but still the vessel keps drift. ing Finding that nothing could be done to keep her off shore the port anchor was let go at hall-past eight P. M. in twenty-five fathoms of water. At ten P. M. a squall came up from the eastward, which ap- peared very threatening, put gave us hope that by slipping the anchor we might get out to sea velore the force of the squall struck the vessel. Every- thing was made reauy for this emergency. As the squall struck the vesse; the fore and aft sails were hoisted, the chain slipped and for a moment the vessel’ went ahead; but the heavy rollers which came im checked her headway, and before she could gather again she struck & little aft of te mainmast, the mext sea tifting her broadside on to the rocks, The current at the time appeared to be at least four knots an hour, In the Le Seg direation to wnatit usually rans. At eleven P. M. the passengers were sent ashore in one of the boats, at great peril. At hail-past cleven the foremast was cut away. heavy wave which had broken over the vessel made a complete wreck of everything on deck and in tne cabin—staterooms, doors and furniture being completely smashed by its force and ali the clothing, stores, &c., scattered and destroyed. At half-past oue the boat returned from the harbor, three miles distant. As every sea washed entirely over the vessel nothing could be done further to save ber or the effects, and at two A. M. tne officers and crew went on shore. They returned at daylight, but found everything so com- pletely destroyed by the breakers that nothing co! be saved. The delegate of the Board of Missions, Rev. J. F. Pogue, Rev. Mr. Sturges, wife and child, and Rey, Mr. show, together with the captain and crew of the Morning Star, came up to these islands tn the British brig Anne Porter, Captain Davie, which had been chartered for the purpose.
