A Press Comment.
(I'er I 'iths Assfriation.—Copyright.) Sydxky, This day. The Sydney Morning Herald, commenting cn tue Tasmania wreck, says that under the circumstances full honor is due to all concerned that at the hour of danger and surprise the people behaved splendidly. The passengers and crew seemed both animated by the same heroical spirit, nor must it be forgotten that the latter division of the Tasmania's people had all the labor of the transfer to the boats of nearly all the victims. The circumstances were most trying to their fortituda and unselfishness, and throws a light upon the hidden strength aud cesouroes of average humanity.
