Full Text

ANOTHER SHIPWRECK. -- We learn by private telegraph that the schooner ANN JANE BROWN was wrecked on Wednesday morning, in a snow storm which prevailed very strong at the time. It appears she struck on a reef of rocks about 10 miles S. E. of Picton, where she now remains, and will be a total wreck. She had a full and valuable cargo on board not insured. Several merchants of this town will be heavy losers by this calamaity. -- Port Hope Ensign.
