The annaal meeting of the ehare- holders of the Toronto, Grey Bruce Railway CJompany was held in the oficeB of the compjiny yesterday. The report of the directors was read, 'Which showed that the important work of changing the gange had been suc- cessfully accomplished; also that a nnmber of improvements had been made in the matter ol grades and curves, and the road re-quipped with rolling stock, the total expenditure for which up to 30th June last had been $1,141,928. The earnings showed a large improvement since the gauge has been changed to the standard width, and for the six months ending 30th June had reached $211,412.37, being the larciesL gross earnings for any half-year, and making in conjunc- tion with the previous half-year, the largest gross earnings for any single year in the history of the company, ihe total amount being §373,020.33. The rci^ort congratulated the share- holders on the favorable showing, which they ftttrib*ute to the improve- ment of traffic brought about by the change of gauge, as well as to the general prosperous condition of the country. " The net earnings for the past half year had been applied in paving the interest on $1,000,000 pre- ference bonds, which amounted to $25,000,. and the sum of £1,500 stg. had been appropriated towards pay- ment of interest on the $2,000,000 issue of six per cent, bonds. The report congratulatad the bondholders und shareholders on the fact that a beginninig had at length been made towards meeting the interest on the bonded debt of the company, which had been so long unprovided for, anc" that the interest en the preference bonds had been paid in full.

C. Miller, which Kives details rf the loss of the steamer Asia, of the Great Northern Transit Com- pany's Jine, which left here on Wednesday evening last for French Biver and Sault Ste Marie: â€" » „ Pakbt Souitd, Sept. 17.â€" Captain A. M. McGregor reached here yesterday by tng from Owen Sound and reported passing the wreckage of a steamer off the Limestone islands. He picked up and brought with him a trunk, a door.and a pillow-shp marked "Steamer Asia." About 10 this morning an Indian boat reached here from Point-au- Barre, about 35 miles distant, bringing Mr. D. A. Tinkiss, of Manitowaniopc, and Miss Christy Ann Morriscm from near O^en Sound, who are supposed to be the only two survivors of the ill-fated steamer, A passenoeb's stout. Mr. Tinkiss makes th3 following state- ment â€" "I went aboard the Asia at Owen Sound about midnight on Wednesday in company with J. H. Tinkiss and H. B. Gal lagher be th of Manito waning. The steamer was crowded, all the staterooms being full, and many passengers lying on sofas and the cabin floor. All went well until about eleven on Thursday morning, when the storm struck. I was in my bertn at the time. My uncle, J. H. Tinkiss, jumped up and said the boat was doomed. Dishes and chairs were flying in every direction. We left the cabin and found difliculty in getting on deck. The boat was roiiiug fo heavily that I got a hfe preserver and put it on. The boat went into the trough of the sea, and would not obey her helm. She rolled heavily for about twenty minutes, when she was STBDCK BY A HEAVY SEA AMD rODNDEBED, and went down with the engines working, at half past eleven. The Asia was making for French River, and had men, horses, and lumbermen's supplies for the shanties there. I saw three boats lowered. I was in the first boat about eight were with me. At first more got in till the boat was overloaded and turned over twice. Parties were hang ing on to my life preserver, which got dis- placed and I threw it off. I then left the l)oat and swam to the Caotaiu's boat, which wa? near by, and asked Mr. John McDougall, the purser, to help me in. He said it wa» but litile use, bat gave me his hand. When I got in there was eighteen in the Captain's bi,j»t, and by that time there was a larger number in ai^d clinging to the boat I had left. I know nothing of the third boat. Our boftt rolled over, and I remember miss- ing poor John McDougall a few minutes after he helped me in. People were hanging on to the spare and other parts of the wrtckagc. Our boat was full of water, and the sea was constantly breaking over us. ONE OT THE FinST TO DIE on the boat was the cabin boy. He was dy- ing aaid was being supported by one of the men when a wave washed him overboard. The next to go was a boat hand he was near the gunwhale ccughin.' badly when he jumped out. I could see him paddling ruund in the water for nearlv a hnnired yards. Our numbers were now reduced to stven five of whom died before reaching the beach, of correspondents in every pai-t of the County, the great majority of whom are practical farmers.

I put the bodies out jon the beach and pried the boat o" with an oar but did not bail it out. Miss Morrison ard I went down the beach in the boat to a derrick about one and a half miles distant and lay on the beach all night. About eight o'clock on Saturday morning an Indian came along and I en- gaged him to bring us to Parry Sound. He would not bring the bodies." The steamer Northern Belle, of the same line, which re acbed here this morning, has been fmnished with ice, and has loft for the bodies. Miss Morrison aud Mr. Tinkiss are being well cared for here, ana the doctor thinks .neither will suffer materially from their long exposure. There were probably about one hundred on board the Asia.

Sn. â€" ^Taking into consideration the ig- norance recently displayed regarding the law as it can be applied under the Health Act aud the Folic* Act, I think it would be well if we could get copies of the Act printed in order that we may^know how the law really stands, I am ixM that there scarcely a house in the village where the law is not violated iu some shape or form, either as to stoves, or ladders, or buckets, or unclean streets, or back premises. It is evident the powers that be Are not acquainted with the law which I believe are wise and just laws, and ought to be carried out more closely than they are, or perhaps, bne of these days, we will either be visited with an epidemic as in Mount Forest, and othe places, or else we will be burneJ out. I would like to 8ugge8t,Mr. Editor, that we get 50 or so to pay a trifle each to get the by-laws correctly printed, so that every rate- payer would know the law. Yours, Ac, W. E. G. [In reference to the foregoing, if 50 or 60 will order a copy of the by-laws, at say 25 cts. each, we would undertake to print them. We quite agree with the desirability of havin.j the law put in the hands of the pubUc. â€" Ed.] The first eyent at the Owen Sound fall races on Tuesday was the Colt Trot, aud was won by "Lucy" owned by C.
