Full Text

The Tornado on a Cruise. Our citizen will remember the wreck, last fall of the schooner J.S. Harvey, loaded with grain, and also that the canal boats taken out to bring in her cargo, were also stranded in the vicinity of Texas and Port Ontario. This morning the Tornado was steamed up and started after the canal boats, which it is thought she will be able to bring in.

The Hyperion. Mr. May's boat the Hyperion, which was carried out into the lake by the high water, and lodged on the beach near the distillery, is a total wreck. She was insured for $2,000 and it is thought that about $200 worth of iron can be saved from the hulk.
