      SCHOONER AGROUND. - The schooner ANN JANE BROWN, laden with staves, is aground on the Snake Island bar, about three or four miles distant from the harbour. An ineffectual attempt was made yesterday to relieve her from her perilous position. The surf rolled heavily on the bar yesterday and this morning, in consequence of a pretty fresh blow from the south.
