A sad story of the shipwreck and suffer-, jugs of a crew has just reached Liverpool. About the middle of September last the North German barque Architect, Captain Weiss, jailed from Quebec with a full cargo of oak timber, bound for Antwerp, and everything proceeded well until tne 22nd, when, the ship being about four miles to the south-west of Bird Island, she struck suddenly on a sunken reef, and took in water so rapidjy that she filled in about half-an-hour afterwards. At about 7.30 p.m. the vessel made a sudden lurch over on her side, capsized, and turned bottom up. The captain and crew after a jdesperate struggle, succeeded in reaching the vessel, and got on to the bottom. They had pothing but what they wore when the ship went over, and as for food and water, both were out of the question. Eor the first ad second days their sufferings were subdtipd with the hope that they would be seen by some passing vessel; but, as the days wore on, their mental and physical condition became lamentable in the extreme, and it was not until the seventh day—when they had almost ceased to hope—they were rescued by the barque Russia, ofSligo, in a most exhausted and pitiable state.
