The terrible and somewhat> lingular fate ol tho propeller Manistee, of whloh nothing is known since last fall, except that sho wont down with all on board, yet continues Id be a frequent sublect ol conversation among nil classes of peoplo with whom Captain MoKay and Mr. Seaton, the clerk, were great and old time favorites. Many stories have been advanced as to the cause of so complete and sudden a destruction as must hnve over¬ taken them, of which one, that through some breakage in the machinery her boilers had burst and Mown out her sides, seems to have taken the lead the following item however clipped from the Duluth Herald doeB not coincide with this view and is otherwise Interestingasthronlngsome light on the subject. Tho ciew of the propeller City of Fremont report that twenty barrels ol flour, the large eagle which occupied a position on the pilot house and the pilot wheel of the ill-fated propeller Manistee weie picked up at Union Bay, south shore, last week. The wheel was lashed, which leads Captain Smitr| to think that the boat sprung a leak and all hands were called to work the pumps and throw the lrelght overboard. While engaged in tl Is task the Manistee foundered and all hands Were lost. This seems to be the most plausible reason yet ad¬ vanced, and we have no doubt that it Is the coTPoct one The old stone lighthouse at the extremity of Minnesota Point,opposite Superior entry, Is to he sbandnued and a new one erected on the outer, end ot the Wisconsin pier.
