I Halifax, N. 8-, September 7.?All of
the Liverpool, United States and Labra?
dor fleet have arrived except the
schooner Nova Scotia, for whose safely
much anxiety is manifested.
Additional particulars of tho recent
disastrous storm on the coast have como
to hand. It is estimated that thirty
vessels, with all hands, wore lost iu
North Bay alone. Of this number, tho
names Of only threo American schooners
have been ascertained. They are tho J.
S. Starr, Charles O. Doane and Carrie
Erich. The loss of property on shore
is immense. In Cape Breton, those
farmers who havo lost their barns will
have difficulty in saving their erops, aud
are afraid that there will bo starvation
among tho fishermen. It is probable
oven among the farmers, who sustained
heavy losses by tho gale. There will be
suffering the country will not get over
for years. On the Nova Scotia side of
tho Straits of Ksnzo, all the wharves
between Port Malgrave and Sand Point
uro carried away. About 600 barrels of
, mackerel were cast off the wharves
about Mulgrave. The wrecks of two
vessels at Black Rook Light are sup?
posed to be those of a brig and sohoon
jp er; the latter is probably tho Eureka, of
New York, before reported. No account
of the orews of either vessel has been
received. A ohild'a dress, a woman's
shawl, and a number of other articles
have been washed ashore. Fifty-six
i vessels are reported ashore at Araohat,
some of which have been condemned
and sold. Riviere Bourgiese, Capo
Breton, also suffered severely by tho
gale. Of the fleet of eighteen fishing
vessels owned in that village, seven were
dismasted and six damaged, and two,
tho Pink and Union, lost, with all
hands. Both vessels had full faros of
1 fish. $70,000" will not repay the loss.

\ principally haras and out-houses, were
[ destroyed. The schoonor Bonnie Joan

Views of Ex-Govjjsnob Axkxn.? The
ex-Governor of South Carolina was
called npou by the Herald reporter, in
the parlor of the Bpingier House, asd
readily eonseoted to give hia views on
Conarism.
"Tbu fact is," said he, "I suppose the
agitation of the subject may do much
good, and certainly it can do no barm.
Tbo people of this country should be
kept awake to all the exigencies threat?
ening tho republic. Couepiraoies are
only dangerous when carried on ic the
durk, uud the light of a newspaper, like
the Herald ou such dark designs as
Ccosarism will destroy it."
"Do you think President Grant a man
of shrewdness and stamina enough to
venture on such a measure?''.
"Oh, yes! I think he is shrewder
than we givo him credit for; but the
Amerioan people are much shrewder.
They will not permit any overturning of
our republican institutions!"
"Do you think a third election will
indicate a march toward monarchy?"
"Yes, and a very long step that way,
too. The two-term precedent nas been
so firmly established, that a third term
at this time will mark a wide divergence
from established views and prepare the
country for tho final step. We ought to
have a woven years' term, aud no eligi?
bility for a re-election. It would bo our
wisest course. The constantly recurring
tumult of tho Presidential eleotion is u
great trouble to many sincerely Republi?
can citizens, who prefer, nevertheless, a
stronger Government to the turbulence
of evory four years."
"Are we not tending gradually to?
wards a stronger Government?"
"Undoubtedly. And tho great capi?
talists . and rich corporations wish it.
Tho Government has already become
almost paternal, und I think, if Jackson
were in the chair aud had not his very
stroug sense of duty to stay him, we
might fiud ourselves in the midst of
very lively times. If he had a sharp
aud clever sou to succeed bim, he might
spring the coup d'etat upon us. But I
doubt if Grant has the clear-headed vil
luiuy uccded to carry out tbo operation."
"What do tho Southern people think
of C;o3arism?"
"They do not care a fig what sort of a
government the Government at Wash?
ington is?not a fig. They have been
so completely shut oil from all partici?
pation in it, that if it wero made a mo?
narchy to-morrow, very few of them
would express either surprise or interest.
For myself, I claim to be a thorough
American; and shall always hope that
our experiment of republicou govern?
ment, if experiment it may be called,
after neurly a huudred years of trial,
shall succeed and be great and glorious.
We have a continent as broad almost as
the face of Europe, with all the varie?
ties of climates in it and all varieties of
people, and wo ought not to bo sur?
prised if differences arise and petty sec?
tional jealousies assail u3. But these
ought uot to bo the worst evils to be
apprehended. The great working mass
of Americans are not likely to give up
their right to the ballot just when mo?
narchical nations are consenting to give
that right to their working classes; and

Died, at the residence of Col. 0. Jones,
near Book Hill, on the evening of 81st nit.,
after a short illness, ELLEN, the beloved
wife of Iredell Jones, Esq., at* the age of
twenty-seven rears. (
Attractive and endearing; in hermanners,
singularly sweet and gentle in disposition,
kind and Christian in character, faithful and
devoted in her filial apd domestio relations,
patient and uncomplaining under sioknees
and euffering, her remof albas left a void in
the hearts of many relations and friends
which it will be hard to fill. '"But we sorrow
not as others who have no hope."
Early in life she bad vowed to be Ohriat's
servant and follower unto her life's end, and
when the hour of trial came, grace sustained,
and with murmured words of prayer and
trust in Jesus, she fell asleep "accepted in
the boloved," henceforth, as we humbly
trust to be "numbered with God's chosen
people in glory everlasting." "For if we be?
lieve that Jesus died and rose again, even so
them also which sleep in Jesus will God
bring with him." ??Whereforo comfort one
another with these words." B. P. J.
