The storerooms were all under water, causing a sc rcity of provisions. The lower cabin was all broken up and most of the baggage lost. Only a few of the mall bag were saved, and those were perfectly saturated. When the schooner with the third officer left for Farther Point the other schooner was cruising off the West end of Anticosti, to intercept the steamship Anglo-Saxon, which sailed from Montreal on Saturday last for Liverpool. The North Briton was built at Dumbarton, Scotland, in 1858, and commenced running to Portland, Me., in November of the same year. She was a propeller of 2,200 tons burden, and had two direct acting engines of 500-horse power. Her hull was divided into six water tight compartments, which probably was the means of saving the lives of many on board of her.
