They are oldtlmers her and have been be fore the courts upon various occasions and thair latest woik will probably re sult in their going into confinement for a good long term.

Tha letter states that the vessel waa bound for Portland; but shipping re slaters have her listed for Sen Fran- etaoo. ... . .. Aooordlng to the letter the ship went ashore in a fierce storm, but nevertheless-all of her crew were saved, man aging to reach shore In - the - ship's boats.

' The Vauban la well known to the Shipping ftmternltywjf this port, for she was here laat fall and took a cargo of wheat to Europe, During her stay here captain Ie pantoo had considerable trouble with his crew and they were finally discharged upon advice of French ' Consul Labbe.
