It appears that. a heayy squall struck the ship ,slie yielded to its force and at the moment. He ordered the iopsails to be lowered and sheets to be let fly. hit as the vessel laid over the bottom of the burn cc to (leek was exposed to the full forceof the wind, and acting as " huge sail pressed her lower and lower into the water until she turned completely over. Her deck was burst in by the immense weight pressing upon it. She filled With water and went down like a stone. The two fatal errors in the construction Ofthc C Wain were the putting masts into her anl giving her only six instead ofeight feet freeboaul as Captain Uolcs had designed. The Poitsmouth corrCSpondent of the Times gives some additional particulars :â€" “ Robert Hirst, able Seaman, was stationed on the forceastlc, and mustered with the starboard watch. There was a strong wind and the ship was then under her three top- snils, double reefs in each, and the fortop- mast staysail. The yards were braced sharp up, and the ship did not seem to have much way upon her. As the watch were mustered, heard Captain Burgoyne give the order, ‘Le't go the foretopsail halliardsf followed by ‘Let go fore and maintopsnil sheets.’ By the time the men got to the topsail sheets the ship was heeling over to starboard so much that the men were washed away off the deck, the ship lying down on her side as she was gradually turning over, and trem‘ bling with every blow which the short jump- ing seas (the sea now was white all round with the squall) struck her, and the roar of the steam from the funnel roaring horribly everything and continuing to do so even when under water. Hirst, with two other men, rushed to the weather forecastle net- ting. and jumped overboard, and immedi- atelyafterward they fotud themselves washed on to the bilge Of the ship’s bottom, but had no SOOIIGZ' got there when‘tlie ship went down. Hirstand his companions went down with the ship but the nch feeling of con- sciousness by the former was comlng in con- tact with a floating spar. to which he tied himself with his black silk neckerchief.. He twns soon afterward, however, washed away from the spar, but got hold Of the stern Of line of the Orleans Railway, beyond Epinay Station, about 16 miles from Paris. A col- umn of 10,000 Prussians advancing from Spinay, about two miles on the plateau of Langiumcn, attacked a French fOrce numeri- cally inferior, but occupying a fOrmidable position above Neur Trett, which comman- ded the road to Balainvillers, Cuchet and Saiux Les Charleaux. The attack began at six in the morning. The French forces, mainly Gardes Mobiles, with a battalion of the Line had 16 mitrailleues in position. The French behaved with singular steadi- ness and awaited the German attack in leuce without firing a shot. They then is treated under cover of the woods, and drew the Germans on, until they were brought ob~ liqucly into range of the masked battery, which then opened on them suddenly and with tremendous effect. The Prussian col- umn was cut in two, and the French, cha - ging upon its flank, drove the fragment ' hurried :etreat down the steep and rapid (in scent beyond the tower of Montechay, to- wards Barbcts and their lines. There the Germans attempted to make a atand, and reform, but the French artillery which had been quickly brought up by the cross road; of the country, here opened on them again with more effect than before. The retreat was converted into a rout. The German troops fled in all directions, throwing away their arms, and the French captured all their artillery, a battery of steel cannon with regi- mental standards, and between 600 and 700 men, who surrendered in a body, and were despalched next day to Chartres. Among the prisoners are two colonels of the Prus- sian line, and a number of Saxon oflicer._. The news of this victory has created grcr. rejoicings at Tours and Rouen. The Franc. troops engaged belonged to the army o.' the Loire. MUNDELSHEIM, Sept. 28.â€"’l‘hc surrender of Strasbourg was signed at 2 o’clock this morning by Col. Leezniski. By this surren- der 471 Officers and 17,000 men laid down their arms. At 8 O’clock the place will be occupied by thesbesiegers- A special to the Times says. the fall of Strasbourg is cons1dered to make but little difference in the question as to the power of the resistance of France. Everything turns on the ability of Paris to defend itself for three months. That time gained, the Prussians will never retain a fort tn French territory. The whole country is rising in arms. New YORK, Sept. 28.â€"The steamship Scotia reports having signalled the Steam- ship Hermann yesterday morning under fut! head of steam, pursued by a French war vessel under full steam. The Hermann was a long way ahead of the Frenchman, and the belief was, that should she be able to maintain the same distance between herself and her pursuer until nigh tfall, she could then escape in the darkness. The Mobiles are deserting in crowds at. Paris. Two hundred have been shot forin- subordination. The British cabinet meet on Friday to consider the question of intervention. The Crown Prince The Crown Prince of Prussia is thus photographed by the Times correspondent: Most people in England are familiar with the appearance of His Royal High- ness, and I am sure that a Prussi'n would take it as a compliment to have said of him ‘he has a very English look.’ But it is in face and figure; the light brown hair, thick moustache, and dense heard, not allowed to exceed due proporâ€" tions, are German, or, at all events, belong to our Crimean camp days; but the bright blue eye. the honest, full look, the bi ood brow, and the bronzed,ruddy chock, have what. we vain islanders call the reg- ular John Bull look, and there are few men in the isle who can boast a more powerful frameâ€"the head set well on large shoulders, and immense breadth of chest. The Prince wears the universal . flat military cap, with red band and small circular rosette in front over the peak, a uniform frock coat, double breasted,with a single ordei round his nebk, a star on his breast, and long boots, the tops of which can be pulled up to the thigh in wet weather. He sits on his horse per- fectly, and he has among his chargers at. least four fit for anything.

Our attention has lately been drawn to this important wokâ€"ave may almost say National'ezitcrpriscâ€"by reading an exhaustive conic-rnlcation on the subject, in the Leader’of he 21st inst., over the signature of “ W. K.” It appears that appointed a. number of gentlemen as Cahal Commissiorers, who will shortly hold a. fitting and take evidence on, the advisibility of the Government having a. Nationzrl Canal Policy; The advartages to be derived from the Ontar'o Ship Canal have been so often set forth in our columns that; it is unnecessary to reiterate what we have so Often advanced. This correspondent (“W. 11.”), in his letter to the Leader, brings out very promi- nently some further and very impultant reasons why a grant of land ought to be given tooaid this great work, and how it can-be provided. The cost of the build- irg of the Ship Canal is, no doubt, a vgry large itemâ€"but we are assured by the rndnunted and 8‘10 gctic President of the Company, 1\l-. F. C. ‘aprcol, that the whole am out would immediately be raiserl in E igland and. the United States, provided the Local or Dominion Governments were irduc ‘5. ti "end their rid by giving a sn'lcie'li- gant 0.. land. Surely, Canada ought not to complain. or Object to this grant, considering that not: one cent will be taken out of i" 3 pockets of the people; but. on the cont .ry, it will be so much capital brought into the O-nintry -â€" more particularly into tlze County of York. I “W. I .”, in his lettzr, says: _ “The canal from Georgian Bay to Toronto would be of the greatest importance to this province, as well as to all the po;- s on Lakes Michigan and "up-~ " i". It ~.'."':.'ri give ta speedy, safe, and ' heap I leans cf tsansit f2. goods from the above lakes to the ocean without breaking bulk, or, if :equired, the produce could be transhipped at Montrealâ€" On the other hand vessels could return with goods from Montreal and foreign countries. “ * * * * This portion of the province (Ontario) is deflicient in the means of power for manufacturing, which could be supplied from the IOOks On the canal to an illiinitirble extent, and there is no foretellin'g h ~w miny towns and cities would spring up around the locks, where manufacturing would be car- ried on." The Canadian Pacific Railway must Lhe wind and sea, but Captain Burgoyne was 'zwcr to Windward, clinging to the bottom ‘ of a boat, in all that storm of broken waters. “ It is important .to notice that the gene- 'al opinion of the men appeared to be that, with a ship having a slight heel Over, the pressure of a sirong wind upon the under part of the hurricane dad: had a c: ef- fect, o.‘ lrvcrrr'c, to p'll the mailer 'mcrc plain-1y 2 on the hull of tlc slap, liar. tile prmcr‘re it," the wind in i.;r three»le ra'ls had. They also appeared to be nearly un- animous in their opinions that. when the Cap- tain got her sta' board side well down in the water, with the consequent weight: of water on the starboard side of the turret dcck,and the pressure of the wind blowing from the port hand on the 1‘ nder surface of the hurri cane deck, and thus ‘pushing the ship right over, she had no chance of righting herself again. .lne man says that, in answer to Capt. urgoyue’s inquiry as to how much the ship was heeling over, he heard the an swers given ‘18,’ ‘23,’ and ‘257 degrees. This movement was never checked for a mo- ment, for immediately the heel of the ship had been given as 25 degrees she was keel uppermost, and about to make that tremen- dous downard plunge, with the roar of the steam from her boilers still le‘Clllg upward and out3crcaming the IIOIS’J of the storm.’ n L Tun New DEVELOPMENTS IN Tau NATHAN Caseâ€"The man Kepling, who was arrested in Pennsylvania on Saturday, charged, on his own statement, with complicity in the mulder of Mr. Nathan, is now in custody in New York. It is said that he now denies having made the confessions attributed to him, but the persons to whom he made tl em are to be produced as witnesses. His representation i :0 his having been a bar keeper in a saloon on Broadway is denied by tholproprictor of that establishment; but it” seems that he was correct in the statement he made about the business place Of his father, a respectable diamond importer in Maiden Lune, who affirms that his son was at his home in Roselle, N. J. at the time of the murder. The detectives do not place any reliance on the stories he is said to have told at Schuylkill Haven. and it Is probable that they were the more bombastic ravings of an erratic, weak-minded individual.

Na- vigation will be openzd between Thunder Bay and Fort Cari-y, as ths’dcman’ds of commerce will ultimately require. “W. K.” again says: “If the Ontario Ship Canal were com- pleted. then we should most assuredly have the inside track, for we could manufacture our iron at as Hood an advantage as any other place on this continent. Suppose the owners of a. real mine in Nova Scotia also owned one of these iron- mountains near Lake Superior. Fi'st, the. iron Ore could he produced at 40c. per ton and donned ir vessels for another 100.01' not. over 500. pe' ton. The vessel would at once leave 1?." and deposit the ore at the cwal mires in Nova Scoria, and for the return trip she could bring back not! to Toronto and other places, and the freight back would aiually nay the whole expense of the trip both ways. By such action we would be our own eoal producers, as well, as iron ma‘nfaci» ers; and, when we calculate the number of hands of various kinds that would be employed, the wealth that would be created, and the amount of shipping used in the business, this, and ilis alone, would tend more to bring out he :eal intrinsic wealth of the Dominion than anything else that could be devise-.1. In the article 0" coal (one of our greatest necessaries) we are dependent wholly on the States, but with this plan l‘l operation we should almost, if not quite, be enabled not only to supply ourselves but very probably some portions of the States also. ' l" *' l' 5‘ Truly, if we fist: obtained a che 1p transit for our goods, secondly were our own coal and iron producers and con- sumers, and tl 'rdly obtaired an illimitable amount of water power right in Our midst, we should be great gainers by having the Ontario Ship Canal made, and if, in addition to the above advantages. we had an amount of thirty-six ,millions of dollars distributed amongst us, we ought to do everything in our power to forward the enterprise. This is not a scheme which has to wait for traffic to be developed, for the freight. is now knocking at our doors, and only Waiting for the fulfilment of ‘our promise of making the canal to use it and‘pay for its accomodation. With regard to the grant of land this correspondent makes the suggesLion: It is true that all the lands in Ontarlo, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and New B.unswiclt are given over to their respective local governments, and that therefore the only lands the Dominion Government now put- sess‘lie in the region of the late Hudson Bay Territories. In these territories the Dominion Of Canada possess over 300,000,- 000 acres of land fit for settlement. A por« tion on the side of the railroads will, as a matter of course, be granted to the roads, but the balance will be exposed for settle- ment. Why should not the Dominion Government make over 10,000,000 of acres of these lands in alternate sections to fur- nish abasis on which to ob‘sin money to some time ago the Dominion government realized any advantage frdm its possession, and therefore it would to them be no loss, but rather be the means of selling their ten millions of acres of intermediate sections, and so making a profit entire transaction of ten millions 0 'dollars. Now or never is the time w en the claims of this panel should be prominently brought before both the Government and *people. Hitherto the- Government has not baen in a position to grant the requisite amount of good lands, but now matters assume a. different aspect, and the Dominion» Government have that power which they- can exert without crip- ling themselves in any way whatever. It is a. matter for question Whether the lands in Ontario would be so ready and fit for settle- ment, or so valuable for hypothecati in, as the lands in the late Hudson Bay territories, and therefore the Dominion Government . ought to look to it, that at once, as soon as ever the report is made, should it be favora~ ble to the canal, that prompt. action be taken in the matter, and that the Government re. commend that ten' million of acres be do- nated for the purposes of the 'eanal. By so domg they would be conferring a lasting benefit on every Province of the Dominion. Nova Scotia would become a great manuâ€" facturing community, as well as a large ex- porter Of coal, and the three other provinces would be blessed with cheap fuel. Montreal would profit ultimately quite as much as Toronto, as a large portion of the produce would be reshipped at her wharves.” During several election contests many of our aspirants have been “loud” on the grain-growing advantages of the Red River and Srckat'chewan valleys, and we hope, at the next meeting of Parliament, they will prove their words by their ac- tions, and give all. their influence toward securing this grant of land for so great an enterprise. By the purchase of the Red River country. the Iindson Bay Company was pal ‘ SB;,000,000 sterling. The Domicnin possesses over three hun- dred millions of acres of public lands. We see nothingtlmt ran be reasonably advanced against the Dominion Govern- ment giving ttl’l millions of acres, espe- cially when it. would hing upwards of forty millions of dollars into the country, thegreater portion of which would be expended in the county of Yo:k. We claim the attention of the members for the Counties of York and Sin'coe to this subject ,=‘ let them leave no stone unturned to press the question at headquarters. In our Local Parliament, the representi- tive for West Yoxk, i‘. . Thomas Graham, fought niarfully for the government to consider the claims of this canal project, and we have no doubt he will be found at his post when the campa’gn is opened Mr. Graham has made many friends throughout the country by the again.
