Description
Full Text

General Notes. -- The steamer CORSICAN struck a shoal at Gallop Raids, and had a hole knocked in her. Captain Sinclair ran her down to Sandbeach Bay, one mile east of Cardinal, where she lies in eight feet of water. By a vigorous use of the pump, her passengers and freight were allowed to be taken off without any damage being done, and the vessel is probably on her way to Montreal.
