LOS OF THE ALABAMIAN. (From the New York Herald.) Captain Raymond, of the Atalento, from New Orleans, reports that on the 12th of December, lat. SO 40, long. 74 W., picked up the captain and crew and passengers of the Alabamian, from Leghorn for New York, Captain IL Hitchcock. When he left her in the boats, the morning of the 12th, the water was up to the lower deck. The following account of the perils of the voyage, and the final abandonment of the ship, and the rescue of the crew and passengers, has been furnished us for publication - - " The Alabamian sailed from Leghorn on the 10th of October, with a valuable cargo, consisting of marble, straw, silks, macaroni, rags, &c. On the 25th instant, before passing the Straits, she encoun tered a severe gale of wind, which did no material damage. On the 29th she passed the Straits, and on the 14th of November, in lat. 32 04, long. 30 32, of the Western Islands, she met with one of the most terrific gales of wind that had ever been witnessed by any person on board. The ship seemed to be on the point of meeting of two gales, one from the N.N.E., the other from N.W. She could carry no sail, save the mizen staysail, covering perhaps fifty square feet, while the sea broke on every s►de with the most awful firy. Being a most excellent sea boat, she role out the gale almirably, and suffered very little damage until the wind died away, when we had two fearful seas from the N.N.E. and N.W. We headed to the N.W., and thus one sea was striking on her bows, while the other came like the blows of a huge trip-hammer upon her counter; added to this, the marble in her lower hold caused her to roll on both sides almost to the water's edge. The continued effect of all these causes was to rack the ship almost to pieces. The whole of the stern was in a state of con tinual motion, while all its ornaments and the bulwarks of the poop deck were knocked off by the fearful blows which descended upon her. The pumps were kept going about one third of the time. It is a little singular that on the day before the mate had suc ceeded in stopping a steady leak which she had from the time we left port, or else the labour of the pumps would have been doubled. "It is impossible to convey an idea of the fearful desolation which reigned on every side, and had we not been extremely fortunate in obtaining a fair wind, before which we could run, the ship must then have gone down. From this time until we came within about 120 miles from New York, we had most delightful weather, and although the ship was very weak, and the pumps were nearly half the time in motion, we were looking joyously forward to a reunion with our friends in fifteen or eighteen hours, when the wind came out N.E., contrary to all the appearance of the skies, and the opinion of a Delaware pilot, who had boarded us within twenty miles of Cape May. Captain Hitchcock, however, was anxious to get within the Delaware breakwater, but as the wind was blowing from the N.W., it was impassible. The wind went round to the north and N.E. During the whole of the night of the 10th and all the 1 lth of December the wind blew with tremendous violence. The ocean seemed one vast succession of water volcanoes, spouting forth volumes of foam. The pumps were worked every ten minutes. The maintopsail was split on the morning of the 11th, and at seven o'clock next day went the mizen staysail, and nothing was heard amid the fearful howling of the wind and noise of the labours of the waves on the ship but the clinking of the pumps, at which all hands were now employed. "Nature seemed thundering forth a dismal requiem, and we soon lost all hopes of keeping her long afloat. So mighty was the power of the sea, that one blow in the leons t' rew the men from the pumps, and caused the ship to quiver like a leaf in the wind. The whole stern of the ship and the cabin were working as if they would go to pieces, while the dead lights were ground about as in a mill. About eight o'clock the double pumpbreak was rigged, and passengers and all betook themselves to pumping; but still the water gained fearfully. At this time the water was above the keelson. At twelve o'clock our only hope was to keep her afloat till morning. Would that we could do justice to the noble efforts of the crew to save the ship, and the perfect cheerfulness which reigned among them. Long and slowly passed the hours till daylight dawned. Our exist ence seemed to be contained in a minute. Part of the crew now got the boats ready ; the one a surf boat, which would live in almost any sea, the other the launch, which had been used for a pig-pen for ten years, was full of holes in the bottom, and was in such a state of decay that no person was allowed to tread upon the planks lest the bottom would cave out. At this time the sea was still breaking with fearful violence, although the wind had a little subsided. At length morning dawned, and to our great joy a brig was discerned about three or four miles to the windward. We made every signal of distress, but he paid no atten• tion to them. " Not a murmur was heard from the crew, and the only exclamation came from the captain, who, as he saw our may chance of deliverance running away from us, said, God grant that he may never need that aid which he now refuses to afford us.' At seven o'clock on the 12th instant the crew prepared to launch tl:e boats, while the passengers worked the pumps. She was now fast settling by the head. Captain Hitchcock, in the noblest manner, gave the mate, Mr. Benson, the choice of boats, although he knew that in one there was almost certain life, and in the other almost certain death. Indeed, it would be impossible to do justice to the coolness, intre pidity, and generosity of Captain Hitchcock, during the whole of this trying occasion. Mr. Benson chose the surf boat, and to that we owed our preservation. The passengers resolved to accompany the captain in the long boat, and such was its rottenness that we did not dare to save one particle of clothing, save what was on our backs. At eight o'clock the long boat, or rather pig-pen, was launched ; and as the sea was running fearfully high, the greatest care was observed to prevent her from being dashed to pieces. NS e were afraid to jump in, for fear of staving the bottom ; but as Providence would have it, a wave brought her alongside, so we all got in in safety, and got clear of the ship. " God alone knows what our feelings were when we thus committed ourselves to the mercy of a raging sea, in perhaps the frailest boat that ever floated with twelve men on the Atlantic. After seeing the mate safely clear, R e lay for more than an hour within 1.50 yards of the ship, expecting every instant to see her sink; for when we left her she had ten feet of water for ward, and seven feet aft, and was very much down by the head. No refuge but that of death was now be fore our eyes, and cast away as we were, in lon. 74, lat. 36 40, in a spot which no vessel would be likely to traverse, unless driven thither by stress of weather —in the Gulf Stream, where storms and the sea rage with accumulated power—in a boat that we were afraid to press our weight upon, through dread that all that separates us from eternity would stave out beneath our feet, and leaking so badly that continual baling alone kept her afloat ; chilled with the water that dashed over while on board of the ship, we looked upon death not only as certain, but as a kind of refuge from worse evils. We had no sails, but with the aid of the oars she drifted with the current away from the ship, so that at three o'clock we were perhaps five miles distant. So high did the sea run, that the ship was hid from view more than half the time. " At this time the men, wearied with their toilsome labours for the last three days, ate some bread, and, after solemn invocation to Him who rules the storm, either to grant us relief, or to smooth our path to that world in which we all soon expected to appear, all but the captain and one passenger reclined, as well as they could, to sleep. The same thoughts of home and friends, and family, were passing through the minds of these two, and• hot tears came for the first time during the whole of this scene from the eyes of both, when, as if in answer to our prayer, the captain ex claimed, ho r The crew started as if struck by an electric stroke; and all, with joy which knew no bounds, saw her at the distance of ten miles. W e pass over the awful anxiety of the two hours, during which we knew not whether she would see us or not, when every minute seemed an age, till at about half past five o'clock we were safely on board the ship Atalanta, Captain George B. Raymond, of New York, where, to our great joy, we found the mate, with the five men who accompanied him. Indeed, to the exertions of Mr. Benson and his men, under Provi dence, we owe our deliverance, for in little more than four hours they had pulled more than twenty miles from thk ship, so as to board another which was not in the hoilaon of the Alabamian. " Mr. Benson, the night before, had been unable to leave. s .his berth from a severe fever, but in the morning excitement gave him strength to accomplish this remarkable feat. To Captain Raymond we never can be sufficiently grateful; and we trust that God for he alone can—will reward the generous conduct of this noble man, who stood from his course, although he had a fair wind, and mariners who know how little southerly wind we have on the coast in winter, can appreciate the sacrifice he thus made. lie had re sf,,lved, if he had not found us, to proceed to the Alabamian, which Providence seemed to have won derfully kept above water as a guide for him, heave to, and set a light at his masthead, so that we might pull to him before morning. Captain Raymond, his otr,cers, and crew, did everything to render the eighteen human beings whom they had preserved comfortable, and in 110 hours we were landed safely in New York, but destitute of everything save thank fidness :to God, that he in his great mercy had seen fit to preserve us from the awful fate which was im pending over us.

FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—Agitation against the Catholic Charities Bequests Act continues to disturb the public mind in Ireland. Unreasonable and hopeless as is the oppo sition, the agitators seem determined that " small blame" shall rest with them if there be not a popular demonstration against the measure. The Roman Catholic Prelates, who have consented to lend their assistanee in carrying out its provisions, by accepting the office of Commissioners, are denounced with special virulence, as though it were thought that without their aid the Act would have been a memorial of the Government's inability to legislate for Ireland. The marked jealousy with which the bulk of the Irish people view the measures of the present Go vernment, is one of the results of the iron rule which successive Tory Administrations were wont to exercise in that long-misgoverned country. The mantle of office has fallen upon Sir R. Peel, or was rather seized b 7 him. He must take the conse quences of having undertaken the responsibilities of office under circumstances of great, if not in surmountable " difficulty." The good deeds of his Government are regarded with suspicion. The evils perpetrated in Ireland by former Tory Ministers live after them. The people —whose memories yet retain a keen sense of the numerous injuries and insults they received from those Governments, of which they regard the present Ad ministration as the lineal representative—will not be lieve that anything really beneficial can emanate from such a source. They, therefore, readily listea to and adopt any representation which the wildest declaimer makes of whatever measure the Government of Sir Robert Peel may introduce to Parliament, for the purpose of changing or regulating anything relating to their country. The Catholic Charities Act is, we think, a measure calculated to effect much good. By guard ing against an abuse of the influence of the priestly office upon the minds of the laity in the prospect of death, by which property may be appropriated by bequest to the Church which would otherwise be be queathed to their families, it throws protection around them against an influence which might be used to their immense injury. Under the regulations pre scribed by the Act, and the superintendence of the Commissioners nominated to superintend its operation, no well-founded objection could be raised to its ob jects, or the way in which those objects were to be attained. The most venerable of the Roman Ca tholic Prelates have consented to act as Commis sioners. This, of itself, would, under ordinary cir cumstances, be taken by the laity of any communion as a pledge that no direct or covert design wa, en tertained by the framers of the measure against the interests of their Church. This confidence would, doubtless, have been cherished by the Irish people with reference to this measure, had there not previously existed a deep prejudice mid inex tinguishable hate—which they, as by instinct, cherish—against a Tory Government. lied this Act, which is denounced as a combination of all the elements of evil, been introduced and passed by a Government in whose administration the Irish people possessed confidence, from an experience of the fair and equitable disposition with which the functions of Government were exercised by it, there would have been no opposition against its objects worthy of notice. We shall not readily forget the remark of an Irish Member of Parliament—who, while he avowed its existence, deplored the prevalence of the feeling, as a barrier to the accomplishment of the good which Sir Robert Peel might be disposed to effect among them :—" If a Tory Government," said the gentleman alluded to, " could coin the paving-stones of Dublin into sovereigns; and having done so were to dis tribute them by handfulls among the people, they would hurl them back in their faces with disdain. So deep is their hatred of everything, however good, which bears the name, or comes forth from the hands of Toryism." We find an exemplifica tion of this undying dislike to Sir Robert Peel's Government generally, and the determination to reject even good at his hands, which the Irish people evince by their opposition to the present measure in the speech of a Mr. T. W. Skelley, at a meeting consisting of several thousand persons, held near Drogheda on Sunday last. The sins of the leading members of Sir Robert Peel's Cabinet, and of their supporters—their insulting expressions, and their irritating and injurious acts, are set before the people, and are appealed to as evidences, showing the utter improbability of anything calculated to " pacify the Irish Church, or to protect the laity of its communion." We adduce the passages we extract from this speech, not for the purpose of expressing approval of the senti ments it enunciates, or the spirit which it breathes, but of showing that the " difficulties" which the present Government will experience in carrying out even remedial measures are partly derived from the con duct of their Tory predecessors; but are principally caused by the dishonest and dangerous means which they employed to create prejudice against the late Ministry on account of its Irish policy. In opposition, they sowed to the wind—in office, they reap the whirlwind : "Who are the proposers of this Bill ? They are the men who hold the reins of power—they are the men to whom the Government of this country is unfortu nately committed. And how did they obtain that power ? Was it not by creating and fostering an anti-Irish and an anti-Catholic feeling in England ? Was it not by pouring out the most foul, filthy, and profligate abuse against the ministers of our religion, and by making a mockery of its most sacred ceremonies ?—(Cries of "Hear, hear.") Oh ! yes, the adorable sacrifice of the mass was then an 'ldola trous mummery,' and the men whom they have lately been pleased to recognise under the titles of the Arch bishops," Bishops,' and Priests' of Ireland, were then designated by our charitable rulers as 'surpliced ruf fians,' a demon priesthood,' and other such complimen tary appellations—whilst the people were denominated as a filthy and felonious rabble,' and as aliens ii blood, in language, and in religion,' by him who occupies the highest official situation in the empire—the Lord Chan cellorship of England.—(Groans.)" The speaker had touched a chord in the hearts of his audience to which their memories responded. Their cheers, and other audible demonstrations of sympathy, showed how completely they entered into the argu ment and its proofs. lie proceeded : " I ask you, do you think for a moment that the pre sent Government would introduce any measure having for its object the purification of the Catholic; Church and the protection of its laity ? Do you consider that they who have ever been the professed enemies of your creed and country, care one jot for the welfare of your reli gion, or are at all anxious concerning your charitable in • terests ?—(Shouts of No, no.') Ah ! believe me, it requires no great gift of political foresight to see what their object really is. They want to divide the priest hood from the people; and shall they succeed in doing so ?—(Cries of Never.')" The agitation against the Charitable Bequests Act is but a new demonstration of an old dislike to Toryism, however it may change and modify itself to meet the changed circumstances and milder spirit of the age. Repeal is the same spirit working under another form. 'We offer no suggestion as to the way in which Sir Robert Peel can best deal with this " difficulty." It exists. It is for him to surmount it, or retire, acknowledging his inability to conquer it, as he may be influenced by a love of office which induces him to retain the government at all hazards; or by an elevated patriotism, which sacrifices self to promote and secure the peace of one's country.

There has been a much better demand for this description of Sugar, and although the market has been well supplied, still previous rates are main tained ; indeed in some cases 6d per cwt advance has been obtained for the better kinds. At public sale, 8,010 bags 278 casks were readily disposed of upon the following terms, viz.:—very low dark brown at 36s 6d to 40s, fine 51s, low yellow 52s to 535, middling 53s 6d to 565, good middling 56s 6d to 58s Gd, good 59s to 60s, tine 62s to 635, very fine 65s ; the casks went at from 51s 6d to 65s per cwt. Privately, some parcels have been sold upon similar terms. EAST INDIA.—The brown and yellow descriptions of Bergal Sugar are plentiful, and a further decline in plices of 6d to Is per cwt has taken place ; but upon thoso terms buyers have been induced to pur chase freely. This afternoon Bengal Sugar met with less attention, and at auction 1,915 bags were only partly disposed of, at rather lower rates, viz., low yellow at 518 to 525, middling 52s 6d to .555, good middling 575, damp and washed 49s to 565, middling sound white 625, damp 61s 6d to 625, tainted by sulphur, mid strong greyish yellow 50s to 52s 6d, damp 495 to 505, low washed white very sulphury 48s per cwt.

COFFEE.—There has been less inquiry for West India this week, but importers have shown firmness, and refuse to take lower rates ; by private contract there has been little business transacted, and of 304 casks 21 bags 10 hhds offered at public sale, a small part only found purchasers at the previous currency—Berbice, mid colory went at 75s to 80s, low mid 73s to 73s 6d, fine fine ord 70s to 71s 6d, fine ord 54s to 625, good ord 50s 6(1 to 53s 6d, triage 40s; Jamaica, good mid 104 s to 1185, mid 82s to 90s, low mid 725, fine ord 54s to 635, good ord 50s to 525; Dominica, fine ord 56s to 585, and good ord 52s te 54s per cwt.

THE CASE OF MISS MARTINEAU, Mr. Greenhow, of Newcastle, the medical gentle man who attended Miss Martineau throughout her illness, which commenced as far back as 1839,- has, with the entire concurrence of his patient, published a medical report of her case. From this it would appear that, as far back as April last, Miss Martineau was convalescent, and that she continued improving up to July, when she was first subjected to the ope ration of mesmerism. The report is admirably drawn up. The following are the conclusions at which Mr. Greenhow arrives, after a careful exami nation of the facts of the case t-- " always believed that a time would arrive when my patient would be relieved from most of her distressing symptoms, and released from her long-continued confine ment ; though she never willingly listened to my sug gestions of the probability of such prospective events, and seemed always best satisfied with anything approach ing to an admission that she must ever remain a secluded invalid. This state of mind, perhaps, may be considered as an additional symptom of the morbid influence over the nervous system, of the class of diseases in which this case may be included. " During the last year or two, in common with many of the friends of Miss M., I had frequent opportunities of observing the increased ease and freedom with which she moved about her sittincr e' .room ; and my conviction became confirmed, that the time was approaching when she would resume her habits of exercise in the open air. Oftener than once I have made use of the somewhat strong expression that, some day, probably before long, Miss M. would take up her bed and walk.' " In the history of this case it is probable that the advocates of mesmerism will find reasons and arguments in support of their opinions. But the experienced prac titioner, carefully distinguishing the post hoc from the propter hoc, will have little difficulty in bringing the whole into harmony with the well-established laws of human physiology.' And he adds— " As regards the relief from the distressing nervous symptoms, the time had arrived when a new and power ful stimulus only was required, to enable the enthusiastic mind of my patient to shake them off." In his preface Mr. Greenhow makes the following very just observations on the subject of mesmerism:— " How tar the relief from the sympathetic nervous distress, attendant on this case, is to be attributed to the direct agency of mesmerism—whether it has acted by a power sui generis, or by supplying a powerful and well timed stimulus to the mind, and thus acting through the imagination and the will, is a question which every one must be left to answer for himself, after a careful con sideration of the facts related in the following pages and in the communications to the Athenceum, lately supplied by the patient herself. " The numerous and striking claims in favour of mesmerism, emanating from so many sources, have, at length, rendered it a subject of serious and philosophical inquiry, which can no longer be resisted by the mem bers of the medical profession. It is by them only that its pretensions can be properly weighed—and it certainly behoves them to enter on the inquiry with candid and unprejudiced minds. " If there be such a power, careful investigation will, doubtless, enable them to detect it beyond dispute ; and they will presently be prepared by the accumulation of facts, if not to determine its precise nature, at any rate to ascertain its modes of operation and to define its ca pabilities and proper limits. " It is in this spirit of calm and dispassionate inquiry, that I have myself entered on the investigation, though I must admit that my efforts have not yet been attended with any results confirmatory of the powers of mes merism ; but I shall proceed circumspectly in my ex periments, till repeated failures shall either confirm my doubts, or positive practical results remove them ; in which case, I shall not fail to make such results known to the profession." We are glad that the investigation of the powers of mesmerism as a therapeutic agent, has fallen into the hands of so astute and judicious an inquirer as Mr. Greenhow, and we look forward with great in terest to the publication of the results of his experi ments. EDUCATION OF COAL MINERS. We cannot but express a hope that some step may be taken, without delay, with a view to afford a better edu cation to the persons engaged in working in collieries. When attending the late inquest (at Haswell), we were much struck with the fact, that more than half of the pitmen who gave evidence, some of them persons of great intelligence, and one master wasteman, were unable to write, or even to sign their names as witnesses. The best conducted and well informed from amongst the pit men, are occasionally promoted to some of the subordi• nate offices of charge in the mines; and it would be in the highest degree useful, if greater facilities were given to the underviewers, overmen, wastemen, and deputies, to learn the elementary knowledge more immediately bearing upon their business. They might be taught, for example, such simple parts of chemistry and pneumatics as relate to the nature of gases or air, and the first prin ciples of hydrostatics, and of geology as far as concerns the position and dislocation of strata, the intrusion of trappesn, or volcanic rocks, and other points. In coun tries such as France and Germany, where a far less amount of capital is embarked in mining enterprises, there are large schools of mines and scientific establish ments, in which professional men, of different grades, are carefully instructed in those branches of knowledge which are closely connected with the art of mining. We are aware that, notwithstanding the want of such institutions, viewers in this country combine a large amount of scientific information, with great practical ex perience. But such qualifications are enjoyed by a com paratively small proportion of those engaged in the su perintendence of coal pits, especially of that class to whom the subordinate offices are entrusted. If peculiar diffi culties attend the organisation of schools for the mining population, owing to its migratory habits, and because the workpeople are often congregated suddenly at places far distant from towns and villages, and do not remain permanently resident at fixed points, it is the more ne cessary to endeavour to overcome these obstacles; and provision might, perhaps, be made for appointing teachers, whose duty it should be to visit, in succession, the different localities where the large pits are opened , from time to time. Among the many thousands whose thoughts are now continually engaged in the coal mines, there will be always some individuals of strong na tural powers, who, if they had mastered the elements of the sciences above enumerated, might be enabled to invent new methods, or at all events would be far more 'capable than persons unconnected with the business, to appreciate the dangers to which they are exposed, and to judge correctly of the adaptation of philosophical principles to practice. We believe, therefore, that if the education of the miners generally, and especially of those set over them, can be materially raised, it will con duce to the security of the lives of the men, and the per fecting of the art of mining, more effectually than any system of Parliamentary inspection which could be devised. There is no reason to fear but that the owners, and all the auth•Thies, high and low, would combine with the men in enforCing regulations for the application of scientific principles to practice, if their minds were prepared by instruction to estimate the true value of the new methods proposed, and if by that instruction those prejudices were removed which disin cline the ignorant to every change of system. There are here no conflicting interests to contend with, for the proprietors are always anxious to prevent explosions and accidents, not only by their own feelings of humanity, but by a regard to the property they have at stake ; while the viewers, underviewers, and other officers, are continually risking their own lives, and share in every danger with the men.—Report to Sir James Graham by Michael Faraday end Charles Lyell. per cent. 41. 1121. lii. 41. 10s. 84. per cent. 41. 401. .15e. 71. 11. 54. al 12s. ed. .ss. .I.loe. 341. 101. 171.
