The Christian and surnames of two respectable persons, with their professions, and places of abode, who will join the tenant in exe cuting the indenture of lease as his sureties, must be inserted in the proposals. The Tenant is to pay half the value of the stamps on the indenture of lease upon executing the same, and it is to be Understood that the said Commissioners will not undertake to pro cure the tenant a license.

On Monday last a railway steam-engine passed along the line of the Great Northern Railway from Peterborough to Lincoln, proving that the works are in great advance, and near completion. The joint station at Lincoln for the use of the Great Northern, and the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Rail way Company, is also near completion, the platforms being finished, and the glazing of the building in pro gress. The first opening in connexion with the lines of both these companies, beyond what is already working, will -take place on Monday next, from Louth to Boston, the inhabitants of which latter town have, since our last, held a meeting to make arrangements for celebrating the event in a manner commensurate with its importance to the trade and convenience of the place. The exact time of opening for public traffic of the Great Northern line from' Peterborough by Spalding and 'Boston to Lincoln, cannot be determined till next week, but it is intended to be about the middle of Octo ber. As soon as that opening takes place, parties may leave Hull for London later than at present, and arrivo at the same time. They will leave Hull at seven o'clock at night, instead of six as at present, and arrive in London by the same mail, and have a saving of from 46 to 60 miles, which will consequently be a saving in proportion of prices. We have seen a statement which makes the saving 60 miles of railway, but supposing it to be 45 miles, or 3s. 9d. less fare by the Government trains, and still more in the higher classes, it will be an amount both of money and time which will be appreciated in these days of competition and pressure. The following estimate of distances saved is from the pen of an occa sional correspondent : London and Hull , via the Midland (the present only .. 821 miles - . .. 112 f 50 IRELAND. DUBLIN, THURSDAY MORNING. The charge against Mr. Gavan Duffy, of the Nation, for high treason, is grounded mainly upon a letter said to have been addressed by him to alr. Smith O'Brien and which was discovered by the police in the travelling bag of the latter gentleman subsequent to his arrest. Yesterday it transpired that the individual, a person formerly employed in the Nation office, who was to have proved Mr. Duffy's handwriting in this letter, had suddenly decamped, and the Crown will now find it necessary to establish the proof by other means. It is stated that a gentleman who had been con nected with the Nation, and who now holds an office in a public department, has been served with a subinena by the. Crown, to prove the handwriting of Mr. Duffy. Lord Clarendon has determined upon a summary and vigorous course to prevent the revival of the Jacobin journals. In the prospectus of the National, intended as the successor of the Nation, Mr. Fulham, who had been connected with the latter journal, appears as the responsible party. Yesterday a warrant under the Suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act was issued for the apprehension of Mr. Fullham, who, however, was out of the way when the police went to execute it. The warrant had been prepared some weeks since, but was not acted upon. It is stated that the intention of establishing the National has been abandoned. Some warrants against other parties were issued yesterday. The Marquis and Marchioness of Lansdowne re turned to Dublin yesterday, after visiting their estates in this country. The Noble Alarquis paid a hurried visit to the National Schools in Marlborough street yesterday, and expressed much satisfaction with the p . r2Kress of the system of education in this fay- L - c7rd', and IlikayMansclovvee_ subsequently left town on their return - `M - island: The following particulars with respect to the prisoners to be tried at Clonmel, are given in Saunders's News Letter of this morning : " CLONMEL, WEDNESDAY.—Proclamations from Dublin Castle were posted up about the town this morning, offering 1001. reward to any one who will give information that will enable the authorities to arrest O'Mahony. " Mr. Meagher, ALP., is in town, and is frequently admitted to visit his son, Thomas F. Meagher, who seems to be in as good health and spirits as ever. " M'Manus had decided upon defending himself, and attempting to justify the part - he had taken in the late movement ; but yielding to the advice of his friends, at a late hour last night he sent for Mr. .Dwyer, of Tipperary, a solicitor of great experience in criminal business, and of large practice in this county, and begged of him to take his case. Mr. Dwyer is now his solicitor, but I have not heard whether he has yet selected counsel. " Smith O'Brien has undertaken to pay for com petent legal assistance for all the poor men who are to be tried, leaving the choice of individuals to them selves. It is said that his counsel have great hope of gaining a favourable verdict on the strength of some technicalities, if not on the merits of the case. " The police still maintain the utmost vigilance in searching for arms, and also for persons against whom there is evidence of connexion with the late distur bance. Several hundred men have absconded from their residences, especially in the neighbourhood of Carrick-on-Suir. "It is now ascertained that six of the rebels who at tacked the Rev. Mr. Hill's house were shot by the gallant little band that defended it; they have since died." The Freeman's Journal contains the following from Clonmel ; " Several persons of rank ani position will, it is understood, attend from England to give evidence on behalf of Mr. Smith O'Brien, in reference to the matters on which it was originally contemplated that Lord John Russell should be examined, but whose testimony will equally apply to the matters referred to, and thus obviate the necessity for requiring the personal attendance of the Premier. " The prisoners from Ballingarry and the Collieries will be defended by Mr. Stoney O'Callaghan, bar rister, who has specially arrived on their behalf. " Major- General M'Donald, with his aid-de-camp, Captain M'Kenzie, arrived from Kilkenny at three o'clock, and will remain in town during the sittings of the Commis.-ion. " Lord Dudley Stuart has arrived in town, and has taken apartments at the Gl obe Hotel. It is said that his arrival is in reference to the State trials. " The judges have not yet come in from Knock lofty ; they are expected this (Wednesday) evening. " None of the counsel for the accused have yet arrived, with the exception of Mr. F. Maher. The agents for the prisoners are busily engaged pre paring evidence to support the challenge t o the arra y. ' The Waterford Chronicle of yesterday thus refers to the arrest of the proprietor of that journal— " We must claim the indulgence of our subscribers this post. We are placed just now in a very awkward position. Mr. Killilea, the proprietor of this journal, left here on Monday morning for Carrick-on-Suir, to collect some bills due to his establishment. It ap pears he had to drive a few wiles beyond Carrick to see some of his subscribers, and that on his return back, at an advanced hour of the night, he was ar rested in Carrick for some offence which has not yet come to light, and which seems to be involved in deep mystery. "No report has yet reached us of the crime' of which he has been guilty, nor has any explanation been afforded for this curt proceedure of those in authority. To us, this appears not a little strange, as the authorities visited Mr. Killilea's residence yester day, made a diligent search there, and ultimately departed without giving one word of explanation, though much importuned by Mrs. Killilea on the matter. " All we know of Mr. Killilea since his arrest is, that he has been conveyed to the gaol of Clonmel, and that he is, we believe, ignorant as ourselves of the matter for which he has been arrested." The same journal says— " It is almost certain that Messrs. Meagher, Leyne, and O'Donohue put themselves in the way of being arrested by the police, owing to the base conduct of some scoundrel farmers who used to set their dogs at these patriots whenever they sought shelter from them." The Limerick Examiner contains the following: — " On Monday constables Shannon and Mason, with a strong party of the city . police, escorted was a confinedyo man of the name o f Cunningham, who in the county gaol, under a charge of high treason. The escort left by early train, and delivered their prisoner to the authorities at Clonmel. It is thought he will be tried at the present Commission, as he is charged with being concerned in some of the attacks about Carrick•ore Suir. " Mr. Patrick Connolly, of Knockany, has been arrested on the charge of treasonable. practices, and put in Bruff 13ridewell, while undergoing examination and communicating with the Executive. " On Monday an express was sent into this city for troops, in consequence of an unexpected assemblage of 20.000 people, which, it was said, would take place yesterday on the hill of Knockfierna. A troop of the King's Dragoon Guards, and four companies of the 47th Regiment were immediately dispatched for Rathkeale. On Monday moning, at six o'clock, a company of the 88th Regiment was ordered from Newcastle to Abbeyfeale, in consequence of an appre hended outbreak in that quarter." The following appears in the Limerick Chronicle of yesterday : "It is stated that on Sunday last, a letter in the name of Mr. D. Hartnett, who is gazetted in the Hue and Cry, as leader of the rebel party that robbed the mails at Abbeyfeale, and headed a body of pikemen on the mountains, where Head-Constable Hogben was detained a captive for three days, was sent to the police and military of the district, calling on them to be prepared for a general onslaught the next night, when the peasantry were to rise en masse, and murder them all ! The police and military were under arms all night, prepared to give the rebels a warm reception should they visit them. "Two men named Frawley and Collins, residing at Patrick's-well, were waited on last Friday by a man who stated he was from Abbeyfeale, whence he had come as a deputy to solicit co operation in that quarter, for a simultaneous rising to murder the police and military of the surrounding districts, but his soli citations were unavailing. Mr. Monsell, M.P., and Mr. James Barry, havi n g been a pp rised of the trans action, immediately iastituted inquiry, and, strange to say, it is supposed the party who made the aepliea tion to Frawley and Collins was an ex-policeman, for whose arrest a warrant has issued, with the vie is of fully investigating the case. On Sunday the Rev. Mr. Scott, from the altar of Patrick's. well Chapel, warned his flock against joining illegal confederacies, and told them to beware of spies and Paddy M'Kews, wholwere going through the country with the view of entrapping the peasantry into treasonable acts. " Notices were posted through several villages is this county on Sunday, warning tenants against pay. ing rents." MONEY MARKET.—SaIes yesterday at the Corn mercial Exchange—Three per Cent..

Notice, we believe, is intended to be given to the Commissioners of Railways to open on that day from New Holland to Barton, and also from the Brock lesby station to Lincoln and Gansborough. From a recent visit to a portion of the works we question whether so much can be accomplished ; but great efforts are making, and as much as possible of those sections of the work will be completed and opened on or about that day.

EIGHTY- FIVE Hgit: D OF CATTLE SMOTHERED TO DEATH.—Shortly before nine o'clock on Saturday evening last an accident of a very extraordinary and, in this port, unprecedented cha racter, occurred at the Queen's Quay, on board the Foyle steamer, plying between this port and Fleet. wood. By this accident no fewer than eighty-five head of cattle and a pony were suddenly and unex pectedly destroyed. From the information which we have been able to collect, it appears that the Foyle had taken in her cago, with a view of sailing at nine o'clock for Fleetwood. The cargo consisted principally of cattle, to the number of 305 head, fifty of whom were placed down in the forehold, and the rest were tied on deck with ropes in the usual way. A few minutes before the hour of sailing the vessel began to sway a good deal from the motion of the cattle on deck, the action of the tide, and her lightness in the water. The cattle dealers exhibited the utmost alarm for the safety of the stock, and expressed themselves in a hasty and somewhat violent manner. A heavy lurch to one side inspired them with so much fear that they foolishly cut the ropes whilth tied the cattle on that side, and the next moment another lurch threw the untied cattle with tremendous violence against the others opposite, and the result was that seventy-seven head were instantly killed or . smothered to death, about thirty hurled into the river, and the ship was thrown on her beam. ends. Five of the thirty animals thrown out of the vessel were drowned, the other twenty-five were saved, but with much difficulty, owing to the darkness of the night and the unfavour able nature of the quays for having them raised out of the water. The cattle belonged respectively to thirteen Irish dealers. The value of those destroyed is estimated, by competent judges, at between three and four hundred pounds. The Foyle was obliged to delay her time of sailing till Sabbath morning at eight o'clock. Early yesterday (Monday) morning about twenty of the butchers of Belfast were on the quay, busily engaged in skinning the animals, and preparing them for sale by auction. At two o'clock the entire lot, eighty-five head, were bought up, at from Gs. to 7s. per cwt., by Mr. Warring, a tallow merchant in this town, for the_ _purp.ose of boiling them down for the tallow market. Alt the, hides were also sold, and realised.. good prices. We think' 'it - right, to add -that Mr, Robert Henderson, the enterprising egent Or the Fleetwood Company, exhibited the utmost sym pathy for the owners of the cattle in the very great loss they have sustained, and exerted himself, with the people in his employment, in the most active manner, to save as many of the beasts as possible. It is also but justice to Messrs. Armstrong and Lindsay, Cap tain Rea, of the constabulary, Head-constable M'ln tyre and others of the police force, who attended with torches, to state that their exertions were also marked and praiseworthy. It is stated that several of the owners of the cattle were yesterday making arrange ments to have an inquiry instituted into all the, cir cumstances connected with the accident.--Belfast •s- ~. _ __ --.

Bard of the Minories I Excuse my freedom In writing lines to one so famed as you ; Aid if you think it worth your while to read 'em, An honour to my humble pen you'll do. My motive in the lines which I present you, Is slimly this—l wish to compllmeat you. I don't refer BO much to skill in verses, As to your strict adherence to the fact; The trading story which your Muse rehearses Is perfectly as Messrs. MOSES act. Poets, 'tie said, are rather fond of fiction, But your assertions challenge contradiction. MOSES and SON, you say, possess great merit As Artistes in the making of attire And, Sir, my commendation they inherit, For MOSES' dress I very muck admire. They have a claim (and every day they show it) Not less than that asserted by their poet. All that you say of MOSES I rely on, Tour compliments on style and strength era due, There's not a garment that I fix my eye on, But proves good quality and cheapness too. Tour verse is true, Sir , ay 1 and so your prose is, Nor have you ever overrated MOSES. E.

CELIBACY. —Singleness is not always the con- Sequence of disinclination, disappointed affection, or a diffi culty in meeting with a fit helpmate. Thousands of the unmarried would with joy embrace the sacred conditions of Matrimony, did they feel themselves equal to its obligations; and the chequered page of life reveals innumerable instances where, under that blighting consciousness, man has permitted the most ardent affec tion to consume him to the grave, rather than consign its object to that 11fo of unmitigable anguish an fettered solitariness into which his affianced would be plunged if he married. Some are, however, wilful enough to gain' the affections of the other sex under these circumstances; and, though not so vfilanous as to proceed to the altar, will make such excuses for procrastination as contribute to his selfish desire of exclusively enjoying her society, by precluding her from accepting other offers. There is scarcely a street where this history is not enacted ; and yet with the exercise of common foresight, its frequency might be so lessened as to ren der an instance Me throughout the entire kingdom. The disqualifications for Marriage have more than one primary source ; the chief of which is Impuissance, arising from four causes :—namely, Natural Deficiency ; the Prostration produced by Early Habits ; the Weakening effects of Later Excesses ; and Nervousness of Tempera ment ; the next sources of Importance are hereditary and acquired ' disease ; and, lastly, men are prevented from marrying by the effects of disease—which, when ill-cured, leaves traces that forbid all im pulse towards wedlock. In each of these instances it is unhappily too common for the sufferer to consider his case beyond remedy, and he fails to consult even his own medical attendant. Such will tad all obstacles removed by reference to a valuable Manual on Nervous Debility and Generative diseases, tke thirty-seventh thousand of which has just been published by ita Anthers, J. L. CURTIS and CO., Consulting surgeons, 7. Frith-street, Soho-square, London, entitled MANHOOD ; the Causes Of its Premature Decline, with Plain Directions for Perfect Restoration, Six., Sze. This eminent Work, which is forwarded by W.

A It It I A G E. il /I One half the wend are desolately single, and the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Difildence, er a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes en- Sitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the Indissoluble, regret 'n 3osnpresiag hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Phy sical inca p acit y , and broken health, are the great hindrances to domes tic ha pp iness and social oontent. The dowry should net be the enly marriage set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health sheu ldforat as item In the compact; it alone dignifies the allian. Blighted hopes or neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortun e.

SUNDERLAND, TUESDAY.-Since Saturday the ALARMING AFFRAY. town, by a series of most ser i ous affray s greatest possible excit emen t has prevailed in this place between a party of th e 63d Regiment, stationed and in the barracks of this town,s having taken the police. The Mayor, with other magistrates, under a strong escort, proceeded to the barracks, with a view of picking out the ringleaders, but the turbulent soldiers assem bled in strong force, and absolutely drove the authorities out of the garrison, notwithstanding the protection attempted by the officers of the regiment, many parties being wounded in the expulsion. It appears that on Friday evening one of the privates in the regiment was taken into custody in the town for obstructing and insulting the passers-by on the faot pavement in a very unbecoming manner. On his way to the station another private interfered, and attempted a rescue, who was also taken into custody. Other soldiers interfered, and it was a matter of considerable difficulty that they were at length safely secured. On the following morning they were fined each 1/. and costs, or 14 days' imprisonment. On Saturday evening many of the privates left the barracks, and, meeting with police-officers, vowed they would be revenged for what bad been done to their comrades on the previous day. They shouted and yelled at the constables, and, other soldiers joining, a general tumult ensued. . The police were quite out numbered by the military; and several of the officers were severely cut by the soldiers striking them with their belts, breastplates, &c. At length they retired to the barracks, and yesterday morning the mayor, attended by his clerk, the officers who were injured, and persons who witnessed the affray, proceeded to the barracks to identify, if possible, the offenders. An investigation was entered into, when the soldiers broke out, and eventually closed the examination as far as regarded that day. An indiscriminate attack was made upon the authorities and witnesses. The mayor and his attendants were escorted by an officer of the regiment, with drawn sword, to the barrack gate, and they escaped uninjured. Others, however, who retreated the best way they could by scaling the wails, received several severe wounds. It is expected that the authorities will now leave it to the colonel of the regiment to hand over the ringleaders to justice. Considerable fear has been occasioned by the affair.

More exalted than mere passion, it soars high above every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice, but more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from its influence, er can avoid its swa y; and business, pleasure, philo sophy, and divinity itself become neglected under the enthralling power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage. When union does not take place, however, this passion, this fervour, this galden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly poison in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life time spent in thefultiknent of every engagement, snap the very con tract asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind? It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early habits, er the results of secret disease, knows himself to be disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment et important ends. The wretched condition of such a being mast subsequently be beyond measure deplorable 1 Loving and beloved, he entails the most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and deserves the attention of all. Those desirous of investigating it will find the fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work e N r.titled -RESERVATIO.

STATE OF TIPPERARY. CLONMEL, SEPT. 26.—0 n this morning, at an early hour, the tedium of Clonmel life was relieved by another military demonstration. The sounding of trumpets and beating o f d rums set public curi osity to work to ascertain the reason why trum peters and drum-boys were exerting themselves so vigorbusly. In a short time a party of the Ist Royal Dragoons issued through the barrack-gate, and were followed by a body of the 84th Infantry. Having sent forward videttes, and made every other arrange ment for a military march, they moved on towards Carrick. When the troops arrived about midway between Clonmel and Cashel, they were met by a body of police and an escort of the 4th Light Dra goons with ten prisoners in their custody. Those men were arrested and brought into Carrick on a previous day, on the charge of being concerned in the attack on the police barrack at Glenbower. The party from Clonmel relieved the 4th Light Dragoons of their charge, and, accom panied by the police, conducted the prisoners to Clonmel gaol, where they safely lodged them. The country continues perfectly quiet, and were it not that the authorities are engaged in bringing those parties who violated the law to justice, no person would imagine that within the last few months open rebellion had taken place in this district. ANOTHER ARREST FOR HIGH TREASON.—A man, named Patrick Cunningham, who had been resident in this town, but absconded some time since, was brought in here last night from Limerick and lodged in the county gaol on a charge of high treason. DEATH OF BRIGADIER-GENERAL STAGY.—It 1$ with feelings of deep regret we perceive that the last Indian mail brings us the melancholy news of the demise of this distinguished officer, whose gallantry at the battle of Sobraon may be still fresh in the recollection of our _ _ . r<?aders. The brave veteran died on the 18th of July, at Neernuch. He Hasa C. 8., and A.D.C. to the Queen, he also held the Colonelcy of the 43d Regt. of Bengal Light Infantry, and commanded the Meymar field force. He was a cadet or 1804, and had resided ever since in India. lie distinguished himself greatly on the return march of the British troops from Cebu!, at the battle of Maharejpore in 1843, and at the memorable one of So braon in 1846. In the latter action, in which the British army stormed the strong intrenchments of the Sikhs, de fended by 30,000 of their best troops, and a formidable artillery, Stacy's brigade was appointed to commence and head the attack, and upon the fall of the gallant Major-G(neral Dick at the beginning of the action, the command devolved upon him. _ MURDER AT GLASGOW.-At the Glasgow Circuit Court, on Monday, James M'Lusky, miner, was unani mously found guilty, by an intelligent jury, of the mur of James Dl'Bride, also a miner, at Stanrigg, near Air- drie, by cutting and stabbing him in the abdomen with a knife, in December last, from the wounds of which he died in about 24 hours. The jury unanimously recom mended him to the Royal clemency, on account of their being no evidence of previous malice; but we understand there is no great hope entertained that it will prove efiectual. The pannel M•Lusky was brought up this morning, and sentenced to be hanged at Glasgow, on Tuesday, the 17th October next. M`Lusky betrayed no symptoms of compunction on receiving sentence. Lord Cockburn, in passing sentence, gave the panne' no hope of the recommendation of the jury being entertained.- -Glasgow Courier.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. am a constant reader of your paper, and have often been astonished at the continual alterca tions in the Criminal Courts in England and Ireland in political trials for copies of the indictment and list of jurors. I do not profess to be acquainted with English law, but the remarks in your paper of Tues day appear to show that some alteration is necessary. I think that, on consideration, you will be of opinion that the law of Scotland may be copied with advan tage in all criminal trials in your country. One law is—that a prisoner shall, fifteen free days before that on which he is to be tried, be served by a messenger or macer (bailiff) with a printed copy of the indictment, to which there is annexed a list of articles (if any) to be produced and founded on in the trial, such as articles stolen, instruments by which murder has been committed, forged documents, &c. — a list of the witnesses against the prisoner, and of the jurors, out of whom fifteen are to be selected by ballot to try him—and a citation for him to appear at the time and place mentioned in the indictment. This list is composed of persons from three coun ties, and is divided into special and common. The prisoner has the power of challenging absolutely two special and three common, and of course, on cause shown, any number. The Crown has the same power. The jury is cited by a maser, from a list made up by the sheriff clerk of each county, who takes the names in rotation from a list of all the jurors in his county. A majority of the jury convict and we have three verdicts—Guilty, Not Guilty, and Net proven. The Court regularly appoints agents and counsel for the poor, out of whom a prisoner is entitled to supply himself, and the agent is bound to cite wit nesses for the defence, and, in fact, take the same charge as if he were paid. You are aware we have no private prosecutor in criminal causes, the Crown, in all cases, by the Lord-Advocate or Procurator-Fiscal, being prose cutor. If the Crown delay trying a prisoner, he can " run his letters ;" that is, adopt proceedings bearing that name, compelling the prosecutor to put him on trial within sixty days, by indictment, or in forty days further by criminal letters. If he does not, the prisoner is liberated. I am sorry to trouble you with so long an address, but perhaps you will think with me, that the Jaw of Scotland deserves to be known at a time when the merits and demerits of jury trial are so much can vassed, and the system itself likely to be put on its am, Sir, Sm.

Edinburi THE REFUGE FOR JUVENILE DESTITUTE DIS CHARGED FROM PRISON, &O. —Yesterday a meeting of governors and general committee of the above institu tion and asylum for the destitute of both sexes, who, on their discharge from prison, or from having lost their character by dishonest practices, are unable to procure an honest maintenance, was held its the board room of the male establishment at Hoxton. The report stated, that the want of more adequate accommodation, espe cially for the female establishment, has been long felt. A resolution to erect a new asylum at Dalston has been passed, the cost of which for the purchase of the ground would be 3,0001., and for the building, 6,0001. During the past year, 359 males and females had been received, making a total of about 7,000, since its institution in 1805. The boys are employed in shoemaking, tailoring , and cutting firewood; the girls in sundry needle and household work ; and both receive a daily course of re ligious and intellectual training. The former are pro- Tided for by apprenticeship, emigration, &c., the latter by servitude or other employment. The Ocean Monarch was insured in the Neptune office for 5,00 dollars; Hope, 1,000 dollars; Suffolk, 10,000 dollars ; Franklin, 10,000 dollars; Tremont, 11,000 dollars ; Equitable, 30,000 dollars ; Boylston, 8,000 dollars ; American, 10,000 dollars ; and New England, 4,000 dollars. Oa her cargo there was an insurance in the Equitable Office for 3,000 dollars ; Boylston, 2,000 dollars ; New England, 7,500 dollars ; National, 5 000 dollars; Lexington and Kentucky Me rine, 10,000 dollars ; also 13,000 dollars on her freight. The total loss is estimated at 200,000 dollars. The re mainder of the insurance on her cargo is mostly here, but is not yet ascertained. —New York Paper.
