Boat still continues to reach the dock; but she must certainly be running at a loss, as there is very little travel and her expenses remain about the. same. At the lirst regular meeting of the new council the follow- ing were re-engaged for the present year : Gregory, $1 per day: heegan, purser,, $40 per month; James Da- vis, mate, and J, Lelesue, $66.66 per month, engineer, There are four ap- plications for master. Capts. David Cummins, Charles Cummings, Michael 'Shea, Robert Winborne. On their ap- plication the above ask for $50 per month, while the boat is in service, The engaging of a captdin was defer- red nntil the first meeting in Febru. ary.

Mr. Fitzgerald has been re-engaged as maker. A movement is on foot where by several ladies are canvassing the island for the purpose of meking 'au presentation to Mrs. R. J.
