CHAKLES ENfirfCfN. Special Telegram to The InteVocean. - Buffalo, N. X-, Dec. 3.—The death of Mr. Charles Ensign, prominently known here in connection with the Commercial Line of propellers, and who has been ailing for some time with, it is stated, Bright's disease, was announced this morning as having taken place shortlv before 9 o'clock a. in. at his late residence on Main, near Tapper street. He was prominently identified with the laKe marine for many years, and built and controlled some of the finest propellers on the entire lakes, among them being the iron propellers Cuba, Scotia, Russia, and Java. Mr. Ensign's health had been declining since June last, and he made a couple of trips recently to New York -with the view of improving his condition, only returning from the second trip about three weeks ago, since which time he had been confined to the THE DAVIDSON'S DISASTER Advices were received here yesterday afternoon, stating that the propeller James Davidson, bound from Chicago to Buffalo, with corn, had come in contact with the ice and broken a hole in her hull. There were three feet of water over trip, and is completely ^.~,~„......_ ___ was detained two days at Cheboygan and *« South Manitoulin on account of the heavy 1 gales. The Queen put into.Gore Bay for shel-jter, and there picked up Captain Crandell and the crew of the wrecked schooner Canadian, which ran on Robert's Island during the recent t storm. Captain Campbell, of the Queen, also reports a large quantity of snow on Manitoulin Island, He left the steamer Lake Erie at Core Bay, stormbound. It was with difficulty tthe Queen reached the elevator dock here on account of the thick ice in the harbour. 'Phe steamer Northern Belle, of the Georgian Blay Transportation Company's line, left this mourning for Parry Sound with a full load of freijght and passengers. The Belle will maUe one nnore trip to Parry Sound, probably on Wednesday, should the storm abate. The steamer Canasta, of the Chicago line, is now loaded lying at the dock waiting till the weather moderates before making a start for Chicago on her last Jrip. Owen Sound, Nov. 22. — The steamer Emerald, of the Georgian Bay Transportation Company's line, arrived Saturday night bound for Sault Ste. Marie, but has been unable to proceed owing to the heavy weather that has since prevailed. Wind south-west, fresh. The wind was south-west on the south shore,, blowing hard with heavy sea ; the wind was west on the north shore. About four o'clock the schooner Wave Great, Captain Taylor, had her jibs blown away, and the cap-£ tain knowing that there was no harbour that % he could run into, and drawing ten feet of (... fc,_* water, decided he would put into Frenchman's Bay rather than run his chance of going to the foot ot the lake. He succeeded in getting into the piers about the length of his Jftll Bcnooner, and as the sea was running ^g high and she was pounding badly, he p^ scuttled her. She is now lying easy, and if the weather moderates she will be lightened. She has 300 tons of coal consigned to P. Burns, of Toronto. Captain Sylvester, the owner, is here, and says he considered the Wave Crest was lucky to get where she is. The schooner J Guelph, class A 2, nineteen thousand bushels capacity, was more unfortunate than the Wave Crest. She succeeded in working up to Toronto - Island, and Captain Uglow says he was in good hopes of getting into Toronto about d;»rk when the gale increased and his whole headgear was 3 carried away. Nothing remained for him i to do but to put about and run back, as all his sails were frozen. He let go his ah* ; chor off Port Union, where he lay very nicely , for a time, when the chain parted. Not being able to put sail on, the schooner drifted with the heavy sea to Frenchman's Bay. The captain tried hard to make the piers, but could not. and the schooner fetched up about half a mile from the oast pier. The crew remained on board all night. At daylight Captain McCourt, of the schooner John Wesley ; Captain O'Brien, scow Brothers ; Captain A. Hilts, of schooner Belle; and Geo. Moore, got the boat of the Wave Crest ana and made two trips to the Guelph. The sea was very high. Captain Uglow was the last to leave his ship. He says he thinks that if he had had some of the members oi the Government on board the Guelph on Saturday morning they would be willing to make a harbour of refuge on the north shore somewhere. If there had been ten feet of water at Frenchman's Bay on Saturday nine loaded schooners would have been safe. About four miles west of here there is another large schooner at anchor, supposed to be theQueen of the Lakes, and there is still ano^i^r further west. What these sailors are su..ering, and have been suffering during the last forty hours, no one can tell. there the hole was stopped and the water pumped out. The boat then cleared for Port Huron to repair damages, and will pro bably discharge cargo and lay up at that place, as the ice iu Lakes Tat. Clair and Erie is too heavy to pass through. The Davidson has a cargo of 60,000 bushels of corn shipped to Fleming & Boyden, and consigned to the Buffalo Grape ;Bugar Works. The cargo is insured for $32,000. at which the Great Western holds $8,000, the Pacific Mutaalj :$S,000, the Continental about $10,000, and Che* Manhattan $6,000. The vessel has a registei valuation of $8?,500, but is insured for but !$30,000. With three feet of water over her ceiling, or floor, it is fair to presume that 10,000] bushels of the corn are damaged. The owners are anxious to have the cargo delivered at Buffalo, but it is hardly probable that the Davidson will make any further efforts to reach open water in Lake Erie for the purpose of delivering the grain. The fact that the bows of the orafc [are well ironed affords a fair indication of the thickness lity of the ice in Lake St. Clair.—Buffalo Cmmnercial. THE ICE IX IiAKE HURON*.

Iter sails \v ere frozen stiff, and there was twelve inches of ice on her decks. The schooner T. II, Ilouland is badly iced up, but is otherwise in good condition. The schooners L. E. Butts, Johnston, and Ryan received orders to go into winter quarters to-night. The steam barge Ohio left for Alpena. The schooner Santiago is still on the St. Clair middle ground, The schooner Emerald arrived down with her topmast and ijib topsail gone. The schooner H. A.

Austin; was admitted to the bar, and practiced for a short time, eventually leaving the profession and going into the commercial business on the lakes, in which, almost from the start, and up to the time of his death, he was associated with his relative, Mr. G. W. Holt. Mr. Ensign established the Peoples1 line of; »-- -:~ -steamers, plying up and down the' S* o^cS lakes, which line was discontinued in 1863 or 1864, and for two or three years he was largely identified with the Union Iron Works. Then he returned to tho lake business and established the Commercial Line, which, together with Mr. Holt, he continued to manage ever since. During nis business career several propellers were built by or for him, and the line of which he was the head was favorably known all along the chain of laKea. Mr. Ensign was an able and sagacious manager of rare business ability. He accumulated a handsome coxnpetency,andhi#business interest had been large for several years. }ic was at one time President of the Marine Bank, and also connected with the American Transportation Company previous to becoming owner of the People's" Line.

From Milwaukee Sentinel of yesterday—Tuesday. There are thirty-one craft wintering at this port that can engage in the grain trade, as will be seen by the annexed list, »vith a carrying capacity of 1,007,000 bushels wheat. Of this number there are fourteen steam and sail vessels, carrying 425;Q00 bushels, that will undoubtedly engage in the ore and lumber trade, leaving the capacity that can be depended upon for grain only 582,000 bushels. Within the past few dayw two vassels, with a capacity of 93,000 bushels, have been chartered, so that there now remains at command room for only 489,000 bushels. This is the lightest showing for this port for years. ..80,000 Port Hope, Nov. 22.—The schooner Erie Stewart, of Port Dover, Capt. Joseph Wiggins, was on her way up the Lake on Saturday with a load of coal from Oswego to Toronto. When opposite the Searboro' Heights, about fi.fteen miles from Toronto^ a squall struck her, carrying away her jibboom and headgear. The Captain, after lightening the vessel off the debris, put her before the wind, whicht was blowing from the west. Frenchman's Bay was passed, and Whitby, Oshawa, and Port Darlington, none of which ports had sufficient depth of water for the vessel to enter. When in [sight of Port Hope, the signal for a tug was raised, and the tug Albert Wright went to her assist- nee and brought her safely into port just tefore dark. The Erie Stewart is now ready her trip, and will leave as soon as tlie wind shances. The kKhoouor A.-uU made port on aturday night, about nine o'clock. She had er mam boom carried away. The tug was at work this morning break .p the ice which had formed in the east harbour THE OSWEGO COAL FLEET. Kixgston, Nov. 22.—The storm of Saturday night is reported to have been much mote severe on the lake than the big blow of two weeks ago, and the extreme coldness weather made the handling of vessels almost impossible. A fleet left Oswego on Friday night, loaded with coal for Toronto, but not one of them reached their destination; all hiving been compelled to put back to Kingston for shelter. The China had her sails blown away, and was so iced up that the crew were unable to do anything with the rigging at all. The Caroline Marsh also was relieved of her sails, and her running gear was som-e-what .uitmaged. The Mystio Star succeeded in I getting within twenty miles of Port Dalhousie, but becoming iced up, could not face the gale, ! so she put about and ran the whole way down the lake with bare poles. The other members of the fleet were the Muffle, Uwlih?,, and Speedwell, all more or less damaged both by the ice and the gale. The Heet arrived here yesterday afternoon, and all appeared to be like so many ¦¦ bargs. Several steamers have been storm "b>u:id. At Swift's wharf alone this morning * %-\\ propellers Lake, Mbhiyan, A'-udio, ' S >'ta, Calabria, and B'teiivntu were await-!;; a calming of the storm for tlie lake. The propeller Cuba was also detained, but proceeded westward at an early ho.-, -'his mov'ning. The schooner Galnair left Poic Dalhousie on Saturday afternoon at one o'clock for Collins Bay, but found it impossible to get there on account of the ice, so she came on to Kingston. During the trip down sne split her foresail, and her yawl was smashed into pieces right under the mizzen-boom, and I portions of it washed on board. A tow-line I was kept dragging behind, and it was feared at J one time that three men had been washed overboard. This morning the schooner Kate Kelly was observed flying a flag of distress at Nine MilePoint. The tug/VanHinwenttohei assistance and towed her down this afternoon. She was not damaged further than herriggingbein& disabled by ice. The captain of the steam barge Carlisle, from Millpoint, reports that he saw a small schooner ashore near the Brothers, and that ice was formed upon her rigging and masts as high as the cross-trees. Her name] was unknown. To-day two attempts were J made to blow up the hull of the old schooner! Governor, sunken below tlie Cataraqui bridge* and an obstruction to navigation. The two discharges of nitro-glycerine were not prodn *;ive of the desired result. DAMAGES RECOVERED.
