Very large Increases In Imports and Experts. The trade returns for the month of September show imports of $11,330,000, compared with $9,843,000 in September of last year, an increase of 81,487,000, The duty collected amounted to $1,810,- 000, as against '1,817,000 last year. The exports for the month were valued at $12,620,000 compared with $10,497,000in the same month last year. In the im- ports the item of '1,037,000 is included for coin and bullion, and in the ex- ports the same item represents $734,000. It is to be hoped that the new Con- troller of.Customs will give instruc- tions to eliminate coin and bullion from the trade returns. They do not repre- sent trade, and are not included in the trade returns of other countries. For the first quarter of the fiscal year end- ing September go Canada’s total for- eign trade amounted to $71,326,000, as compared with $64,799,000 for the same period lame“, or an increase of near- ly 07,000, .

As had been the fate of hundreds of others, so it was with the Britain's crew. They all lost their lives, - _ 'lhe Zephyr, a. mull vessel, was lost on the Weit End Shoal with all on board in 1873, and when the Portuguese sailing ship Faro became. entangled on the bar all excepting the Captain and two sailors found a watery grave. TWO AMERICAN Sill Us LUST. The American schooner Reeves was wrecked on the same treacherous shoals in 1879. All on board were lost before human aid could reach them. This ces- sel was dashed to gleam inside an hour, and schral of t e bodies from the wreck washed ashore. During this year the State of Virginia was stranded on Sable Island. This steamer carried a large number of angers, and all on head were burie in this "ocean grave- yarf" . ... . .. A, . The wrtck of the schooner Ocean Traveler in 1870 was asad one. Her crew consisted of a Captain, mate, boatswain, three able seaman. three ordinary sea- men and cabin boy. In addition to this, number the captain had his wife on board and his little girl. The lady had put. two weeks previous to the wreck given birth to a son. All had gone well until one dark night, when the Ocean Traveler was caught in one of those terrific Atlantic gales. She was swept like a mere piece of drift- wood by the angry billows on to her doom. All on board seemed to be aware of their approaching late, and preparations were made toward saving their lives, but their efforts, combine Wli_h the aid of those on shore, proved futile. As a last resort the crew took refuge in the rigging, the Ca lain car- rying his sick wife and childp up aloft while the irl was intrusted to one of the crew. EBoring the whole of the morning they remained in the rigging, with the waves dashing in fury over the ship, carrying everything before them. Time and again the men on shore tried to reach the ship with the lifeboat, but each attempt proved a failure. The wreck was rapidly going to pieces, and in the afternoon one by one of the unfortunate people were car- ried away, and forever ingulfed in the breakers. ' r-v.. was; “(12" Btu. In the year 1868 the Geargia, a fine steamer. was blown during a furious gale on the western shore of the treach- e-ruus sandy shoals.

A brief gimme at some of the most notable wrecks which have taken place at Sable Island will serve to show how dangerous a place it is to those who p19w 1he deed $949: A - sells of all sizes. Once a, ship is entang- led amid the shallows, once stranded on the bars, and all is over with the hapless craft, whether she be a fine man-of-war, stately ircn steamer, a Clipper sailing ship or a humble fisher'ts boat. All meet the same doom-toial annihilation by the furious breakers that sweep along the shores. Hulks upon hulks lie strewn on the beaches rising like many weird phantoms of the past, each suggesting the terrible ordeal that the occupants of the ill-fated ves- sels went through before they met their fate. It is no wonder that that small stretch of land has been named "An Octar,t Skyward? 7 an moean over the many more who are doomed to meet a. hike fate. THOUSANDS OF LIVES LOST. It would be impossible to accurately state how many vessels have been wrecked an the shores of Sable Island, but they run up in the hundreds, while the boss of life has been many thousands car that sandy shore of the North At- lantic. Since the founding of the Hu- mane Society in 1802 a, wreck record has been carefully kept of all the disasters that have taken place at that island. They now number more than 200 ves- belief in ghosts. Theme Is the pale lady with the bloody fingers, who visits the dreaded spot previous to each ship- wreck, and an aid tar who has visited that section wild sit for hours over a glass of grog and spin yin-us about the numerous ships' crews who met their death on the sands of this “Ocean Graveyard," and who come at intervals back to the seem of their tragic death of Sable Island. But remarkable as have been the wreckage on its shores, yet the island has strangely escaped the notice. of landsmen and travelers. Every sandy peak and verderous knoll is linked with some sad tradition. Bak- er’s mu, Trot's Cove, Scotohman's Head and French Gardens are so many sil- ent monuments of human sufferings. Each foot of the island might be term- ed haunted ground, and the dwellings there are rich in relics and legends, each one having some connection with a sorrowful past, and strangely repeat- ed as times goes on.
