From the rapidity with which I drifted during < the day, and judging that the boat went down at about half-past two,I should estimate that I had already drifted from threeto four miles, from_the point where the collision took place, making from 8 to 9 miles as my estimate from these. data, of the distance from which the collision took place from the western shore.

AILJALILLJV We From placards posted about town last week, signed T. D. ltlcConkey, we gleaned that, in obedi- ence to a requisition, he had called a meeting_ for Saturday last, to consider the matter of further steamboat accommodation on Lake Simcoe. From the wording of the advertisement we had antici- pated a large and enthusiastic meeting, as a. result of previous canvas and solicitation on the part of the requisitiouists, whose names were not given. At the time appointed, a very, thinaudience testi- ed to the fact that the steamboat matter had not been so thoroughly ventilated as the announce- ment implied, and that the interest in the project was not roused to the extent of signicance. " The Reeve occupied the,Chair,i with D Alton McCarthy, EmqmmmmmSwmmm.wRwmommd the meeting by exposing its object, and referring to the advantage of having more eliicient lake service, concluding bynssuring the audience that there were other gentlemen prepared to speak to the merits of the question. A dead halt in the proceedings here took place-no one venturing to " move or speak, and the Chairman and Secretary . looking isolated and. Rmw 6T' ' lovers, alone in a far distant island, as an awk- ward interval of empty benches made itself pain- fully apparent betwcen the-rostrum and audience. Pen, ink, and paper at length came to the rescue, from which was evolved a resolution appointing a Committee to gather information on the business of the Lake, to report as soon as convenient. The local oratory on `this, as in other important matters, was committed to Mr. D'Arcy Boulton. He saidwe wanted a comfortable and speedy boat, that should have its head quarters here, and capable of mak- ing the circuit of the lake in time to connect with the trains in Barrie; that -the people of Orillia, Beatverton, Jackson s Point, and other Ports on the Lake would willingly co-operate, as also the Railroad Company; that the principal business was done between Barrie, Qrillia, and Beavcrton.-, and that if we here could get control" of a boat, the railroad would be compelled to shut up Bell Ewart, thus doing away withthe station expenses, and ollicial salaries at that place. He said much more that it would be unprotable to repeat, as in his remarks there was a singular absence ' of gures, and not a tittle of information that was not already in the hands of every tax-payer in the town "who had even glanced at the subject. How- Mn,mmmememMhbmmwaMem- ceeded in impressing the public meeting with the fact that he knew nothing about it. Capt. Bell, -in response to a call, gave the only informa- tion of _the ' evening. Z He stated the probable ` amount necessary to build the required boat, the -legitimate business of the Lake, instancing in particular the growing importance of the Muskoka country, as be derived it from one of the survey- ors engaged therein, as well as a trade that j s_n_ow diverted from the Lake. Being a steamboatman, long and favorably engaged in the service of Lake Simcoe, his opinions areentitled to respect. . ,We are anxious to have more efficient steam- -boatvarrangements on Lake Simcoe, but the means to kill out all interest in the matter is such ashas been adopted at the recent meeting.` Why were not"the townspeople generally consulted, and a hearty requisition got ,u p,~so.as to ensure it that attention lt.deserves't There are those entirely overlooked who would gladly have come forward with such arguments and figures aswould place the steamboat matter intelligibly before the pea?

As he reached shore a fearful surf capsized his raft, and its burden was outof sightfor several seconds. When they rose the wife was at some distance from the raft. The gallant fellow left itvaud swam to his wife, seized her and again regained the pilot house. All onshore held their breath while they approached. At one instant they seemed high in air, and at the next were buried out of sight beneath the terrible surges. At last the wheel-house grounded some dis- tance from the beach, when the man with his wile in his arms, jumped off and commenced wading to the land.
