A PERPETUAL ROLL.
From the time when she 6truck at 3 o'clock on Sunday morning, when the wind howled dismally and the sea was running high, and the fog dense, up till early yes- ! terday morning, she had by the action of the breakers been subjected to an almost perpetual roll, which must have strained and shaken her badly. She has, however, to all appearances now settled down firmly, but has a decided list to starboard. During yesterday morning there was no perceptible change in her position. Loaded as she is, and so firmly embedded, consideiablc diffiIculty would be experienced in getting her off by means of a tug. In fact that seems . hardly possible.
