The ceremony of turning the first sod for the Inverness and Nairn Railway works will take place on Thursday, the 21st inst. The Countess of Seafield was requested to take the principal part iu the ceremony —to inaugurate railway works in the Highlands of Scotland —and at once consented. We understand that the magistrates and town council, the trades of Inverness, and other corporate bodies, propose to be present at the interesting ceremony. The festivities of the Northern Meeting take place on the same day. The ceremony will take place in the immediate neighbourhood of the town, and will be so arranged as not to interfere with the usual sports and amusements of the first afternoon of the Northern Meeting. Several gentlemen belonging to Inverness, who have taken a very active interest in the success of the Inver ness and Nairn Railway, have lately visited Morayshire with the view of inciting that prosperous and enterprising county to take initiative measures for extending the In verness and Nairn Railway at least as far as Elgin. The distance is only about 20 miles, the country is level, and should require no expensive cuttings or embankments ; the proprietors are as liberal and public-spirited as any in Scotland, and the pecuniary means and traffic of the district are quite equal to the formation and support of a suitable line of railway. It has been resolved, we understand, to dispose of the houses and lands belongiug to the Crown at Fort Au gustus. They are not valuable, but are expected to realise about 3,000/.—lnverness Courier. IRISH SOUTH-EASTERN. The half-yearly meeting of this company was hell on Saturday, at Dublin; Mr. Juhn Edward Redmond in the chair. The directors' report showed that the gross receipts for the half-year ending June 30, 1854, amounted to 5,5581., and the corresponding period 011853 to 4,8081. ; increase, 750/. The annual returns for the same date were :—Year ending June 30,185j —passengers, 47,040 ; total receipts, 5,9761. 1852—Passengers, 52,602 ; total receipts, 8,4191. 1853—PasSengers, 60,850 ; total re ceipts, 9,853/. ISs4—Passengers, 71,064 ; total re-. ceipts, 11,9341. The balance-sheet showed an available surplus of 2,1941,, outof which the directors recommend that a dividend be declared on the paid-up capital at the rate of 2s. per share, and that the balance, after payment of the same, amounting to about 3501., be carried to the credit of the current half-year. The permanent wa r y and wcrks continue in good order. The bill for Bagnalstown and Wexford Railway has received the Royal assent, and, in pursuance of its provisions, the present meeting was made special, to enable this company to subscribe to and hold shares in the undertaking to au amount not exceeding the sum of 50,0001. After sonic discussion, the report was adopted, and the meeting separated. SCOTTISH MIDLAND JUNCTION'.—It is stated that, at the ensuing half-yearly meeting of the shareholers of this company a dividend of 3.1 per cent. will be declared.— Glasgow Constitutional. SCOTTISH CENTRAL.—It is reported that a dividend at the rate of 41 per cent. will be declared at the meeting of shareholders of the Scottish Central Railway Company on the 19th September inst.

The pioneer steamer of the new Canadian line of screw steamers, constructed expressly for the trade from Liverpool to the River St. Lawrence, arrived in the Mersey on Saturday morning from the Clyde, where she had been built by Messrs. William Denny and Brothers, making the run from Greenock in 13i hours, coming round the Calf of Man. Iler engines, which had not been previously tried, made fifty revolutions on a pres sure of 101bs. The vessel was so light that the screw was half out of the water, so that what was gained in lightness of draught was lost lost in power of propulsion. The Canadian is constructed to carry 63 cabin passengers. The state-rooms, which are models of elegance and com fort., contain every convenience of life on board ship, from luxurious velvet-cushioned sofas and strong berths tastefully curtained, to mirrors, patent lamps, and wash hand basins. They are ea-A 7 feet 3 inches in length e.t.a 8 feet 6 inches in breadth, fitted up with two berths 2 feet wide. The saloon, which is an apartment of sur passing beauty, 58 feet in length, is heated by steam. The style of carving is the old cathedral ; and nothing could have been more finely adapted to give the great length of the saloon its full effect than the plainly arched roof and unabrsusive panelling which belong to this style. The light in this magi:ifieent room is excellent, being admitted from the end of the cupola by four pane' panes of stained glass, the work of Messrs. Ballantine and Allan, Edinburgh. The ladies' cabin, which is to the right of the saloon on going out, contains fourteen berths, and is everything that could be desired for pri• vacy and comfort. This cabin is also heated by steam. Before ascending to the deck again we are conducted to the steward's pantry, a splendid room, 13 feet by 8, superbly garnished with silver plate of all dimensions and crystal of every imaginable cut. The cooking range bas been fitted up in the most complete style and on the most improved principles. On deck, also, there are two large ice -houses, 12 feet long each by 7 deep and 6 in breadth, sad a respectable cowhouse. The fore cabin is admirably fitted up. There are 280 berths in all, disposed in two single ranges along the sides, and one double range in the centre of the ship. Air and light are abundant, and there is no lack of space to promenade when the deck would be a doubtful scene for bodily exercise. About a ninth part of the whole num ber of berths are boxed off from the rest for the use of unmarried females. There are also two hospitals for the use of steerage passengers, one for males and the other for females. The machinery of the Canadian is on a scale commensurate with her size. She is fitted with a pair of direct-acting engines, cylinders 62 inches dia meter, 31 feet stroke. They are immensely strong, and are expected to make upwards of fifty revolutions per minute. The boilers are two in number, fire at both ends, have brass tubes, and are c ons t ruc t e d 'to give an ample supply of steam. The propeller is I'' •el in dia meter, and of 25 feet pitch. The C. '''n is full barque rigged, and has a very handso Liverpool Albion. nip' EXPEDITION TO CENTRAL AFRICA. Further communications have been received from Dr. Barth, from Timbuktu, giving an account of his pro tracted sojourn at that dangerous place. The date of the present letters is two months more recent than that of the first letters despatched thence. They reach up to the 15th December last. They contain the gratifying news that this indefatigable and courageous traveller had regained his full health and strength. He writes that ho would have quitted Timbuktu long ago (a place where his life was greatly exposed to the effects of an unfavourable climate, and m uc h more so to the dangers arising from the hostile disposition towards Christians of the mcst fanatical Mohammedan population of Northern Africa), were it no t th a t h e woul d have before him certain death, and share the f a t e o f th e un f ortunate Major Laing, if h e left Timbuktu with ou t su ffi c i en t pro tection. The murder of that excellent officers was insti gated by the Fullan (or Fellahas) of Hamd-Allahi, a tribe living south-west from Timbuktu, the same fac tion that is so much opposed to Dr. Barth. These Hamd-Allahi Fullan had received from their chief the most peremptory order to effect the capture of the tra veller, and bring him to his head-quarters, whether dead or alive, for they had expressed their disbelief in the pretended character of Dr. Barth being an ambassador from Stamboul ; and they had demanded all his papers, to ascertain whether they substan tiated what the Sheikh el Bakay had caused the great mass of the people to believe. Hitherto their hos tility has availed nothing, owing to the protection of the Sheikh el Bakay, and to the energetic bearing as well as the unceasing watchfulness of Dr. Barth himself. Unhappily, the renowned Sheikh has no military power of any kind, his authority consisting solely of an exten sive spiritual influence over a great portion of the Western Sudan. Dr. Barth, therefore, and his own small retinue, are almost at all times well armed, and ready to resist effectively any sudden attack. It is greatly to be regretted that Dr. Barth is not in pos session of a letter from the "Sultan of Stamboul," inas much as he states most emphatically that he would then not be in the least molested by any of the Mohammedan inhabitants. He hoped, however, to be able to depart freedfrom T fr i e m m bi a ik s t i u tua b t y ie t n h „% e i c i l e o h se of the Sear, and must at encebeiiig tu be Highly de trimental to mind and body. While preparing the pre sent letter, Dr. Barth had the great joy to receive Audb, the mighty chief of the Tingeregif, a Tuaric tribe, inha biting the regions east of Timbuktu, along the Kowara, or Isa Bail4a, as it is more properly called there. That lung-expected chief came, on the bidding of El Bakay, as the traveller's protector, with a welcome escort of 100 i h li o e r s wb e ea n : y e n n , backd t e o s ptsaeeteehheidm Sakatu. f safely El through ts o.j h fo i Dn rh.vmohgaedl dominions, a hav ingl os n o o reached Timbuktu, and given him the utmost Dr. Barth had collected a great mass of information and drawn up various maps, of both which he has sent a small but valuable portion on thi s occasion. There is no further news from the party under D . r.

DEPARTURES FROM THE PORT OF LONDON.—The de partures for the Australian colonies during the past week have comprised 10 vessels—three to Sydney, with an ag gregate burden of 1,809 tons; two to Port Philip, with an aggregate burden of 1,499 tons; two to Adelaide, with an aggregate burden of 1,298 tons ; one to Hobart Town, of 358 tons; one to Launceston, of 292 tons; and one to Port Fairy, of 253 tons. Their total capacity was, consequently, 5,514 tons. The rates of freight ex hibit no great alteration, but in sows case's they are ra ther Armor, THE CHOLERA. THE METROPOLIS.— There are strong grounds for entertaining the hope that the pestilence has done its worst, "and that it is passing away from amongst us. There is scarcely a parish in or near London which has not been visited by the disease ; and although the mortality occasioned by it has fallen very far short of that which the metropolis experienced from the same cause in 1849, the ravages it has committed are frightful to contemplate, and ought to convey a very solemn lesson on many matters which have hitherto received but little attention. The establishment of an efficient board of health, renewed energy on the part of the Commissioners of Sewers, and the strong de termination of local boards and parochial authorities not only to suggest and recommend, but to enforce, habits of cleanliness in their respective districts, are amongst the means to which we may look with ccnfi deuce for preventing in future the approach of a plague which experience seems to teach us finds most victims in localities where it is sp ecially encouraged. The fact h as b een often stated, but ma he repeated, that the m a j or i ty of cases in which the cholorhas triumphed over its victims have been those in which the advice of properly -qualified medical practitioners-' has been disregarded, or where persons have indulged in the highly-dangerous where of doctoring them selves. ST. BOTOLPH, ALDGATE WITHOUT.— Yesterday rn rn ing, Mr. John J.

Elizabeth Gordon, aged 23 years, a charwoman, of No. 29, Royal Mint-street, died suddenly from the same disease. A respectable tradesman, named Edmund Dowling, an extensive freeholder arid grocer, of No. 30, King-street, Tower-hill, expired yesterday morning from an attack of cholera. A young woman died on Sunday from chol era , at No. 6, Three King court, Minories. A tradesman named Hadlow, of Jury -street, Aldgate, fell a victim to ,he epidemic, after a short illness on the same day. Another male person, named Cross, lately residing at 49, Minories, died on Saturday from the disease, and was buried on Sunday at the Victoria-park Cemetery. Great complaints were made yesterday among the poor residing. in Peter's-court, Rosemary-lane, relative to the deficiency of water, which is dipped from the.gutters for household use. It appears that the landlord has neglected to furnish the houses with proper conveniesice for the supply of water, which was formerly supplied by the New River Company, but for some time past the pre mises have been without it. A general meeting of the guardians will be held on Wednesday evening at the vestry-room, Upper East Smithfield. ST. JAMES'S, WESTMINSTER.—No deaths were re ported to have taken place yesterday in the Wardeur street and Golden-square districts of this parish, where the disease has raged with so much severity. On Sun day no deaths occurred, as far as we have been able to ascertain ; but it was a melancholy day, on account of the number of funerals which took place. ST. MAGYLEBONE.—The number of. deaths for the week was 11. There was an enormous increase of diarrhcea, over the past week, but the proportion of cho lera is small. ST. SAVIOUR'S ITNION AYD CHRIST CHURCH DISTRICTS. —The mortality from Asiatic cholera in St. Saviour's anu 'Christ Church for the week ending Saturday was as excessive as the previous week, but it is to be observed that those weeks have been the heaviest yet experienced. The number of deaths amounted to 81 ; 56 in St. Sa viour's and 25 in Christ Church, the heaviest visitation that parish has experienced. In the New-cut two persons diedyesterday morning, also another person in York -street. The disease is not confined to any precise locality; and a remarkable instance is stated that in one house in the Blackfriai•s-road, on the occa sion of the epidemic in 1849, the occupier and his wife both died, and the same fact has taken place on the pre sent occasion. There are a very great many cases of diarrhoea, but owing to the activity of the medical offi cers, and the steps taken by the board of guardians, by arrangements with the medical men in every district to supply medicines gratis, it is found that the inhabitants have become aware of the importance, on any unfavour able attack, of making immediate application for relief, the omission of which has caused the increase of cases that have turned out fatal. ST. MART, NEITINGTON----ST. PETER'S, WALWORTII DIBTRICT.—In Hill-street there were four very bad cases on Sunday, one of which terminated fatally to a fine little fellow about eight years of age , of the name o f William Hazard, son o f . M r . Hazard, No. 11 in that street. At Nos. 1 and 2, Hope Cottages, two females were attacked, and to hopes are entertained of their recovery. THE ROTAL FREE HOSPlTAL.—Yesterday two more deaths from Asiatic cholera occurred in the cholera ,yards of this hospital ; one of the sufferers having oul . y been removed but a short time previously from Islington. The courts and alleys of this parish have, owing to the defective drainage, suffered very severely, and hardly a day has.passed since the outbreak of the epidemic but a case of cholera has been reported. The sitting magistral..e at Marlborough-street police cnurt. Mr. Bingham, yesterday received the following note : Dear Sir,—When the first grief and stupor which :oust have attended the horrible calamities in the neigh lmurhood of Golden-square shall have moderated, I hare no doubt that many pour creatures will apply at your office for aid to meet the distress caused by funeral ex putires, however small, and the cessation of custom in their little shops. -To enable Sou to meet some of those cases, if you will with your usual kindness and humanity oblige we by doing so, I enclose a small sum, which I heartily wish I had the power of making greater, and if you will .lo um the favour to acknowledge its receipt in the daily rapers as a contribution in aid of the sufferers in the neighbourhood of Golden-square from ' P.', I shall be very thankful. Dear sir, faithfully, P." Enclosure, a 501. Bank of England note. A cheque fur 31. has been received from "M," on be half of the dispensary in Gerard-street, Soho. GLOUCESTER.—It is with regret that we have to an nounce that Gloucester is now visited by that much dreaded and pestilential epidemic, Asiatic cholera. As yet it has not been productive of any very serious con quences—two deaths only having occurred, while about five or six cases have come under successful medical treatment. SCOTLAND.—OnIy one new case of cholera has oc curred in Edinburgh since Tuesday, but two of those previously reported have proved fatal. In Glasgow within these few days there has been a considerable diminution in the number of cases, although the mor tality tables for the month of August show the burials from cholera to have been 1,023, the total number of deaths being 2,288. The average monthly mortality is under 1,000. The Greenock mortality bill for August gives 52 deaths from cholera. The ravages of the malady have been very severe in Campsie and Kirkintilloch. In the former village, which contains a population of 3,000, there have been, in the course of four or five weeks, about sixty deaths, while in the latter, which contains about 6,000 inhabitants, there have been, since Wednesday fortnight, between 40 and 50, and very few recoveries. In Ayr there have been stray fatal cases of severe diarrhcea, ter minating in decided cholera, for several months, and of late a few cases of cholera of unmistakeable Asiatic type; but these have not been numerous enough to create any general alarm. The disease has made its appearance in different parts of the county of Argyll. At Oban there have been three deaths from the epidemic ; at Furnace, near Inverary, four ; at East Tarbet, four ; and at Ar drishaig, one, if not two, deaths. Since its appearance in Dumfries, about a fortnight ago, there have been 9 cases and 4 deaths. The official report for Perth, from the outbreak of the epidemic six or eight weeks ago, up to Wednesday, gives 55 cases and 21 deaths. There have been 10 recoveries, and 24 cases..remain under treatment. Several fatal cases of severe marrlicea, if not cholera are reported from Montrose, and in Aberdeen the disease still continues.—Scotainan. TREATMENT OF CHOLERA BY CASTOR OIL. The following letter, on the new treatment of cholera by castor oil in King's College Hospital, has been addressed to us by Dr. George Johnson : " Sir,—l shall feel obliged if you will permit me to m a k e your journal the means of pulilishiioetal, in the n et p h i eresults of our re cent experience at King's College treat ment of cholera by castor oil. I have no desire t o rus h e hastily into print, to deal in therapeutical n ove lti es ; my own inclination would lead me to collect facts now, and to defer the publication of results to a time of more leisure and less nx • ty; but I cannot reconcile m y se l f to the ndoptio a n of - this ie cautious mode of proced ure w h en I con sider that cholera is daily sweeping off hundreds of victims, and therefore that any method of treatment which pro mises a more than ordinary amount o f success ought as speedily as possible to be made known. " All the cases of cholera which have come under my care in the hospital have been treated by castor oil, ad ministered in a mode which I shall presently explain. We have called no case `cholera' which has not presented well marked symptoms of collapse. Fifteen of these cases, most of theta in the very extremity of collapse,* have been under..treatment, and the result has beenl2 recoveries and three deaths. One of the fatal cases was a child, six years of age, who died half an hour after admission, in cense sequence, as I believe, of a large dose of brandy which had been previously administered by its mother. In a second fatal case the oil bad been given for some hours, and the patient was rallying, when the oil was discontinued in consequence of the intestinal discharges appearing to be tinged with blood. I was absent when this case occurred, and, although I impute no blame, yet I think that with the discontinuance of the oil the patient's chance of re covery was taken away. In the third fatal case, a night nurse disregarded her instructions, and we have good rea son for the belief that during several hours the patient had very little, if any, of the medicine. Admitting, how ever, that th e f a t a l result in these three cases was inevita ble, the propo r ti on o f recoveries yet remains fourth-fifths of the whole. The number of cakes is small, but my hopes from this plan of treatment do not rest merely up e os? my own individual experience. I have carefully studied results of the various modes of treating cholera which have been advocated and practised by different nrra n be profession, and I have arrived at the conclusion that with the methods of treatment which have been attendedtythatetfheouser largest amount of success have been essentially b ' saline treatment in their tendency. I allude especially eliminative of Di'. Stevens, the treatment by d the emetic plan of calomel, as Piactised by Dr. Ayre, d, small and repeated doses hand, the largest amount of treatment. While, on the other amtautr has ociurred in Ow P a ' 1 " 1 ing! "" given freely either opium or alcoholic etimulante—a prac tice long since characterised by Dr. Stevens as that of ad ding one poison to another. For, what reasonable expla nation can we suggest for the phenom ena of cholera except ' this,—that some mysterious poison enters the blood, which, while it exerts a powerful depressing and narcotio influence on the entire nervous system, in most cases ex cites a copious secretion into the stomach and intestines, whereby the poison is separated from the blood and thus ejected from the body ? And if this be the rational patho logy of cholera, what treatment is so likely to be injurious as that which attempts by narcotics and astringents to arrest the discharges ? What procedure so full of promise as that which has for its object to favour and assist the elimination of the poison ?. _ " I have not time, even if you could afford me the space, to detail the numerous facts and arguments which favour that view of the pathology and the treatment of cholera which I advocate. I may, however, remark in passing, that there is no relation between the degree of collapse and the amount of fluid which is lost by purging; that in many cases there is rather an inverse ratio between the collapse and the diarrhoea, and that the former often decreases and disappears while the latter continues with unabated ra pidity. " Assuming, therefore, that it is desirable to e ncourage rather than to suppress the diarrhoea, the agent best adapted to accomplish this result appears to be ca.stor oil, the mildest, least irritating, and yet withal the quickest pur gative which we possess. Our plan has been to give the oil in doses of half an ounce every half hour, and to con tinue these doses until the bowels are freely acted on, when we give it at longerintervals, and discontinue it altogether as soon as reaction is fairly established. It is usually given in cold water. A patient with a cold tongue has not a very delicate sense of taste, and we have had no difficulty in administering the medicine. It sometimes excites vomiting, and wo have had such decided evi dence th a t the effort of vomiting is beneficial,. that we are rat h er grat ifi e d th an o th erw i se with . this re sult. I n every case we give cold water ad lib i tum. put mustard poulti ces over th e s t o mach to relieve the pain which is usually complained of in that situation ; we apply dry heat to the cold extremities, and friction to the clamped muscles. t w ha e t m th o e st s brandy until the period of collapse is safely past ; and we be well to observe carefully avoid opium and have not as yet had one case ofsecondary - fever. It may oessof upon a steady, persevering wa 'le t fif 1 attention to every case, at every period of ita-'ll the plan depends that he has done all that is progress. Let no one imagine a nurse to give half an ouncereo7u c ired t when he has ordered i Rt . 0e vals : He must be quite sure thaatshi.- carried out. is directions are fully " I must not omit to mention that one or two of our patients have been rescued from an a l by an emetic of mustard and salt, and almost fatal lethargy that in one case the addition of two drachms of oil oiturpent' castor oil appeared to act as a wholesome turpentine et dose of the stage of icy coldness. As to the quantity of l o ur, r which may be . given with impunity, I may state that than one patient has had as much as a pint in the a mere of 48 hours, and that in several cases in which, with ex treme collapse, there has been a torpid condition of o bowels, we have given the oil in doses of a full ounce. • "And now a few words as to the treatment of epidemic diarrhoea, characterised by vomiting, purging, and cramp. There appears little reason to doubt that the unaided efforts of nature will suffice for the cure of by far the greater number of these cases, and that it is a matter of comparative indifference whether the patient is dosed with sulphuric acid or with carbonate of soda, except that the sulphuric acid in large doses must irritate the mucous membrane, and thus act as an aperient. I am per suaded, however, that the plan of attempting to check these excretory efforts by opium and astringents is as hazardous as it is unreasonable; and I trust that the time is not far distant when the profession will be unanimous as to this important point of practice. We have recently at the hospital cured hundreds of these cases by one or two doses of castor oil. Several of our nurses and one pupil in attendance on the cholera patients have been seized with severe premonitory symp toms of cholera. They have all been quickly cured by castor oil, and not one has passed into the stage of collapse. On the other hand, I have known, in the year 1849, an attack of vomiting and purging quickly converted into one of fatal collapse by one or two small doses of opium ; and some of the worst cases of cholera that we have re cently had under our care have been those in which, pre vious to their admission, medicines have been given for the purpose of checking the diarrhoea. "At some future time I shall probably publish a full account of all my cases ; in the meantime, I trust that the brief and necessarily hurried remarks which I have now made may be of service to those who are willing to adopt a mode of treatment which appears to promise results so favourable.—l ant, he,, "3, Woburn-square, Sept. 6."

(AMSTERDAM AND ROTTERDA3I PRODUCE MARKETS.— The weekly reviews from the above markets state that business was rather more active. The favourable result of the late sales of coffee had caused greater firmness among holders, and the advance was well supported. In sugar there had been nn great change, but the tendency was toward improvement. The chief operations had been in raw descriptions. There was increased steadiness in rice, some purchases having slightly improved the tone of prices. Indigo and tea, although the operations were limited, had been maintained at former quotations. ACCIDENT TO ARCHDEACON COXE.—We regret to announce that Archdeacon Cose, late Vicar of New castle, met with a serious accident on Wednesday in last week. The venerable gentleman, whilst returning from Bamborough to Eglingham, and when near a place called North Charlton, was by some means or other thrown from his horse, and sustained a severe concussion of the brain. Dr. Wilson, of Alnwick, was speedily in atten dance ; and the unfortunate sufferer now lies at North Charlton, in a critical state of health.—Nelocaetle Courant.

PUBLIC SYMPATHY FOR LIEUTENANT PERRY.—Last night a public meeting was held at the Prince Albert Tavern, York-street, Kingsland-road, "to take into consideration the late iniquitous proceedings against Lieutenant Perry, and to forward, by combined efforts, Mr. Perry 'a manly exertions to free himself from the trammels of his persecutors." Mr. Steadman occupied the chair, and moved the following resolution :—" That this meeting pledge themselves, by all legal and consti tutional means in their power, to assist Lieutenant Perry ' in his praiseworthy endeavour to counteract the tyranny and machinations of his oppressors." He also addreesed, the meeting on the injustice and illegality of the pro ceedings before the late Court-martial. Mr. Russell seconded the resolution which was unanimously adopted by the meeting. Mr. Gale then moved an address, t o urge upon her Majesty the propriety of taking the opinion of the judges on the evidence taken before the late Court-martial, which was seconded by Mr. Ferdi nand, and unanimously adopted. A. committee was then formed to carry out the objects of the meeting, and a subscription entered into. Loss of THE BEITISH BRIG BETEEY.—The 8131 p Humboldt, arrived at New York from Hamburgh, gives the following report of the loss of the British brig Betsey :—July 24, lat. 60 deg. 42m., long. 4 deg. 51m., fell in with a wreck at 9 p.m. Came alongside of her. It proved to Le the British brig Betsey, Captain Watson, from London from Ouebeeri, with about 10 feet water in the hold. Her foremast was gone by the deck, and the mainmast about 6 feet below the top. We sent our boat alongside, and took Captain Watson and nine men from the wreck, and brought them to this port. Captain Watson re ports that on the 17th July a heavy sea broke on board of the vessel, while under close -reefed topsails and foresail, which took away foresail and foretop-sail, and hove the vessel down with her lower yards in the water ; stove in the hatches, and set the whole of our fresh water adrift. At 7 a.m. (18th) cut away the foremast to right ship, and pumped successively until the 19th at night, when we were taken off the wreck by the Humboldt, Captain Paulson, having then been without water two days. The sea being so heavy it was impossible to save anything from the wreck except what we stood in. Captain Watson returns his Sin cere thanks to Captain Paulson and offi cers for the kind treatment that himself and crew re ceived while on board the Humboldt.
