MONEY MARKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday were Nitimated at 7,000 bales, including 1,000 Ameri can taken on speculation. The market was heavy 'but closed steadily at previous rates. The sales comprised 5,500 American, 250 Pernam and Mar anham at 64d. t o 71d , 200 Egyptian at 6id. to and 1,000 Surat at 2d. to 4d. per lb. Railway Share Market opened firm, but afterwards become - weak, and closed at a decline of 1 per cent. The progress of the indigo auctions up to yes terday evening, is thus described by Messrs. H. W. Jetresbury and CO. " B catalogue commenced yesterday. Previous prices have been fully maintained, and strong support was given by holders, but the sale went off flatly ; 2,244 * heats passed, o f , which 848 were withdrawn, 796 bought and 600 sold. Total passed, 7,488 chests to last *veiling, inclusive.' As a remarkable illustration of the suddenness With which a check may be imparted to any par /deniar branch of business supposed to have been lather carried to an excess, we may mention that Since the 29th ult., only two vessels have cleared o ut from London fo r A us t ra li a , one o f th ese even b eing under engagement with her Majesty's Corn inissioners of Land and Emigration. For a long 'time previously, five and six ships per diem were about the average number.

" Prom the tenor of our own letters, and the infor mation we gather from those most likely to be best in formed, the orders for goods continue to arrive from the .eoloriy by every opportunity, and in enormous quanti so that we do not at all expect any permanent fall -freights." The Tallow Market has advanced 6d. per cwt. this morning, in consequence of the more unfavour table political news. P.Y.C. is 595. on the spot ; tBs. all the year ; and 595. for January and March. The Board of Trade have issued a notice to ships' captains respecting cholera, and the necessity of precautions from over-crowding, dirt, and want of ventilation. Although great expec t a ti ons are formed upon some of the official announcements that our Go vernment is now pursuing a vigorous course of action, in respect to the Russian affair, it is impos- Aible to deny that great uneasiness still prevails lest there should be further wavering that will P ro mpt the Emperor of Russia t o d procrastinate, even t 6 disregard the remonstrances made to . marke t J im.

The bankers who were beieved to have sold some time back may probably yet deliver on the settling day. To-morrow is a strict holiday with the Jews ; and this, with the " options " coming off, will doubtless have an influence. There is, in fact, the greatest difficulty in ascertaining whether the account is now bullish or bearish. Consols, after being 92;, have since been quoted 91i for Transfer.

OMER PASHA. THE OBOLERA. (From the Times.) The quarterly statement of the revenue exhibits it still on the increase, notwithstanding the lavish reductions to which it has for some time been con tinually exposed. On the Customs of the quarter compared with that ending October, 1852; there is an increase of 120,6671., in the face of reduced du ties on sugar and tea. The returns of the Board of Trade have already prepared us for this improve ment, by the great increase of importation in al most all articles of general consumption, including sugar and tea, and particularly in wheat. In the quarter's Excise, which has just been largely affected by the repeal of the duty on soap, it is something to report that there has been no decrease. The Stamps show an increase of 98,7421., notwithstand ing an increase of about the same amount in the corresponding quarter of last year. It is the na ture of the Assessed Taxes not to rally, like other sources of revenue, after reductions, under the influence of prosperity, for they are levied on articles not liable to rapid fluctuations of use and demand. Accordingly, after the late revision of those taxes, we are not surprised to find them yield 29,9961. less than in the corresponding quarter of last year, though that quarter still showed the effect of the measure substituting the inhabited house tax for the window duties. A slight increase in the produce of the income tax, and decrease in that_ of the Post-office, are probably alike matters of account ; as also may be said of an improvement in the receipts from the Crown Lands and Miscel laneous items. The result is, that the net increase on the whole revenue of the quarter from ordinary sources is 226,7541. Taking into account Imprest and other Moneys, and Repayment of Advances, this increase is augmented to 417,7271.—a matter of great congratulation at a time when the prospect of a short harvest, war, and some possible checks to our foreign trade, make it doubly important that the credit of the country should stand high, as it undoubtedly does at this moment. The comparison of the whole year with that end ing October 10, 1852, exhibits corresponding re sults, except that in it there happens to be only one branch of income—that from Miscellaneous items—which does not show an improvement. The several amounts of increase stand thus :—Customs, 361,519/. ; Excise, 372,768/. ; Stamps, 476,372/. ; Taxes, 27,159/. ; Property-tax, 204,191/. ; Post office, 45,000/. ; Crown Lands, 182,888/. ; while the single head of decrease is 110,0331. On all these heads, except Customs and Taxes, there was an increase in the year ending October 10, 1852, as compared with the year before that. In the present instance the aggregate increase: rom ordi nary sources of revenue on the whole year is no less than 1,559,8641. There is also a large increase in the receipts from Imprest and other Moneys, and, still more, in those from Repayment of Ad vances. The net increase in the income of the year rises to the very high figure of 2,311,7521. We can hardly anticipate any attempt to explain away so palpable and gratifying a fact. It is very plain that we have not got to the end of the reduc tions of which the revenue is capable, though, of course, the precise time for these reductions must depend upon many considerations besides the buoyancy of-the revenue. With a revenue so sound and so productive, and with an expenditure kept well within bounds, there is not much reason for the misgiving that has been expressed in some quarters as to the pos sibility of the financial operation to' come off next January. • With a large sum of money in hand, the Chancellor of the Exchequer will probably be able to exchange the requisite amount of South. Sea and other annuities for Exchequer-bills with out much difficulty. As expressed in our City Article of yesterday, "public obligations bearing 3 per cent, in perpetuity will be paid off partly by cash in hand and partly by securities carrying in terest at the rate of 31. Os. 10d. per annum, which will admit of being reduced whenever the money market may be favourable for such an operation." It is still, indeed, in the power of political events to increase the difficulty and cost of the process, but no imaginary plan of conversion could have avoided such contingencies, and, unless we give up all idea of paying off any portion of the debt, except by the ordinary process of buying stock at market prices, we must be prepared for the casualty of the est possible plan being baulked by the inopportune course of public affairs. For our part, we entertain a confident hope that things will be better rather than worse in January next, and that the Chancellor of the Exchequer will ac complish the conversion of the South Sea and other stocks without that pressure on the money market with which we have been threatened. Ti is very true that the trade of this country is necessarily an adventurous and so far dangerous state. No one can toll how the affairs of E uro p e, how China, how Australia, will affect our wealth or our credit, next year. Appearances are so far against us, but the country has often unexpectedly recovered from more imminent dangers, and it is a great consolation to reflect that in some of these matters we are only doing our duty ; in others, only threatened with what is inevitable. England had no part in the origin of the Eastern difficulty. England has not plunged China into disorder. England has not been too prompt to risk her • wealth and credit on the faith of Australian returns. If all these things should prove against her, it is not her fault, nor could they be avoided. The Journal des Debats gives the following de tails relative to Omer Pasha who commands the army of the Danube : " Omer Pasha is an Austrian subject ; he is a native of Croatia. He was born in 1801 at Vlaski, a village situate in the circle of Ogulini, 13 leagues from Fiume. His family name is Lattas. His father was Lieutenant- Administrator of the circle ; his uncle was a priest of the United Greek Church. Admitted when very young into the School of Mathematics of Thurm, near Carl stadt, in Transylvania, and after having completed his studies with distinction, the young Lattas entered into the corps of the Bante et Chaussees ' which in Austria is organised on a military footing. In 1830, in conse quence of a misunderstanding with his superiors, he left for Turkey, and embraced Islamism. Chosrew Pasha, who was then Seraskier, took him under his protection, procured him admission into the regular army, and attached him to his personal staff. He even gave him his ward in marriage, who was one of the richest heiresses of Constantinople, and the daughter of one of the Janissaries whose head he had caused to be cut off in 1827, when that corps revolted against the Sultan Mahmoud. In 1833, Lattas, who had taken the name of Omer, was chief of battalion, and was appointed aide de-camp and interpreter to General Chrzanowski, who had charge of the instruction of the Ottoman troops en camped near Constantinople. Omer was thenceforward actively employed in the re-organisation of the Turkish army, and, still protected by Chosrew Pasha, obtained successively important missions and command in the army. The troubles of Syria and the Albanian insur rection of 1846 gave him occasion to distinguish himself, and attracted to him the attention of the Sultan. He was sent to the Kurdistan, and succeeded in obtaining the submission of that province, which was nearly inde pendent of the Porte. Named in 1848 to the command of the army sent to the Danubian provinces, he made the authority of the Sultan respected, while at the same time he respected the susceptibilities and privileges of those provinces, placed as they were under the double protection of Turkey and Russia. " The year 1851 was the most brilliant period of the military career of Omer Pasha. Named Commander-in- Chief of Bosnia, the principal chiefs of which had re fused to recognise the Tanzimat, that is, the new organi sation of the Empire, he combated successfully, though with an inferior force, the Beys of that country. At last he was sent to Montenegro, where he found himself for the first time commanding a regular army of 50,000 men. The intervention of Austria, as is known, put a term to that expedition before decisive operations could be commenced. ( From the General Board of Health.) HANBURGH. By an official report, received from Dr. Gernett, offi cer of health, it appears that the cholera has subsided in Hamburgh, no new attack having occurred in th e th ree days preceding the report, which is dated October 4. The total cases for the city and territory amount to 531; the deaths to 277, or 52 per cent. ; and there are remain ing under treatment, 60. Upwards of five-sixths of the attacks took place in the lower parts of the town and marshy districts, about one-sixth only in the parts above the level of floods. In the new-built parts of the town, which have complete drainage, water-closets, &c., pro portionally very few cases have occurred. It is gratify ing to learn that the English sailors, who amount to about 800, and who suffered severely in 1849, have almost entirely escaped, only seven having been attacked, all of whom recovered. It is understood that a medical practitioner was appointed some time since to watch and aid the crews of English ships, by her Majesty's Go vernment. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE. Deaths on the Bth of October : Cholera ... Diarrhoea.. Deaths on the 9th of October : Cholera ... Diarrhoea . The total number of deaths from cholera and diarrhcea in Newcastle-upon-Tyne during the present outbreak has been 1,473. In the same period (viz., the first 39 days) during the prevalence of epidemic cholera there in 1831-2, the number of deaths was 267. The cases of diarrhcea, discovered and brought under immediate treatment by the visitors at Newcastle amount 3,664. The cases approaching cholera, 239. The cholera cases so discovered have been 63 in num ber. Cholera corpses, 3. There have also been 15 old cases passing from diarrhoea into diarrhoea approaching cholera (two of which were relapses after treatment by medical officer) ; and 12 old cases have passed from a state approaching cholera to cholera—making the total number of cases of all kinds discovered and brought under treatment by the visitors from the commencement of the outbreak to the 9th inst. inclusive, 3,969.

During the like period (viz., the first 31 days) in 1831-2, the deaths amounted to 141. " At the present date Omer Pasha is at Schumla, at the head of nearly 100,000 men. He is described as dis playing great activity in its organisation, and is occu pied with fortifying the country which may become the theatre of war. NEWTON, Oct. 8. -Cholera, death, 1 ; diarrhoea, 5. FEATHEESTONHAUGH, Oct. B.—Diarrhoea, deaths, 6. STOCKTON-ON-TEES. " Omer Pasha is about 52 years of age, below the middle height, but with a martial expression of counte nance. He speaks with the same facility the Servian, the Italian, and the German tongues. After the insur rection of Hungary he undertook the defence of the re fugees whose extradition had been demanded by Austria and Russia. He proceeded to Schumla, where he made acquaintance with the principal refugees, and on his arrival at Constantinople, he interfered zealously with the Sultan in their favour. He took several of them with him to Bosnia and Montenegro, and confided to them important posts. Some of them have distinguished themselves greatly, and have remained in the service of Turkey." Deaths from cholera, from September 24th to October 9th, 9. The sanitary condition of this town is represented by Dr. Waller Lewis as just as bad in several particulars as Newcastle. Reiterated warnings have been given in vain for the removal of nuisances, and now there appears too much reason to apprehend that an epidemic outbreak is inevitable. At the last meeting of the Local Board of Health all the medical officers reported fresh cases both of diarrhoea and cholera, and on proceeding, on report of these officers, to inspect the infested districts, Dr. Lewis himself witnessed the death of two persons—one a fine young woman, aged 24, and another a child in an oppo site house, who expired a quarter of an hour afterwards ; and four doors he saw a man, the father of a family, in a state of hopeless collapse. Nothing had been at tempted to mitigate the.foul condition of this locality. THE LATE RAILWAY ACCIDENT IN IRELAND. In addition to the persons injured by the late dreadful accident, whose names have been already published, a Mr. Lowry, of Cumberland, and his two sisters were also sufferers on the occasion—one lady 'seriously, Mr. Lowry and the other lady slightly. They are all, how ever, progressing favourably, and are staying at the Shelburne Hotel, under the care of Surgeon Rynd. Another of the sufferers (Miss Pack), who had been pro ! nounced "out of danger," lies in a most precarious con dition. The surgeon of Stevens's Hospital states that her life is in imminent peril. Inflammation of the lungs has supervened on the injuries which she received in her chest, and the contusions and lacerated wounds on her legs have led to extensive inflammation, which threatens to assume a bad form. The following additional parti culars connected with this fearful catastrophe are fur nished by the Freeman of Monday morning : "We have learnt some additional particulars relative to the providential escape of Mrs. Latham Blacker and her two daughters, which is, perhaps, the most extraor dinaryu incident connectedwiththt. cope of the lastis h sad disaster. This lady and her children occupied of of t d h a e n c g o e l r li fro sion m , a v e e d e d th in e fi a rst a c n a r d r i w a g e e re w t h h e i r c e h fo r r e e c e p i position shk • which escape seemed to be utterl y hopeless. Indeed, w hen one examined the coupd in which they were sitting , and saw how completely it was' demolished—the whole of the seats being carried right into the middle of the next co mpartment—it was difficult to conceive how their lives could have been preserved. The explanation given by one of the railway officials renders the manner of their escape intelligible, but increases our wonder and admi ration at the extraordinary mode by which they were saved from instant destruction. The explanation is shortly this :—When the buffers of the goods engine dashed against those behind the coupe, the violence of the shock was so great that the carriage sprung up (to use the words of one of the witnesses) as high as the wires of the mag netic telegraph,' and, falling on the engine knocked off its funnel, and then rested on the smoke-box' in such a manner that the Misses Blacker, who were seated next the doors at either side, were thrown out upon the top of the smoke-box,' where they were subsequently found lying in a state of insensibility, but uninjured. Mrs. Blacker being seated nearer to the centre of the coup&, was more exposed to the force of the concussion, and consequently received a compound fracture of the leg. On inquiry at the Straffan station on Saturday, where she still lies, we were informed that she passed a good night, but has not yet been pronounced out of danger. She is attended by Surgeon Adams. W e have already mentioned the wonderfully narrow escape of Mrs. Barrington, who was found crushed into a corner and covered over with fragments of the broken carriage when her husband came to search for her. It is stated that, on hearing the frantic shouts of the pas sengers who were on the embankment that the goods train was running into them, Mrs. Barrington fell upon her knees for prayer, and this attitude alone saved her life. The next moment the side of the compartment was driven in with the utmost violence, and the seat op posite to that which she had occupied was forced up wards in such a manner as to form a covering and pro tection for her head. Had she remained sitting, this would certainly have struck her on the head or chest, just in the same manner in which several of the unfor tunate passengers were killed. It is a curious circum stance that the bracelets, reticule, and other small articles which were on Mrs. Barrington's person when the accident occurred were found lying among the dead bodies. EXTRAORDINARY ACCIDENT IN KING WILLIAM STREET.—MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.—Shortly after six o'clock last evening, a most extraordinary accident oc curred in King William-street, London-bridge, nearly opposite the Swan Tavern, which, at the time, caused considerable alarm, and had nearly proved fatal to several persons. It appears that about the time in question, one of the Favourite omnibuses was proceed ing alOng the middle of the roadway towards London bridge, when it came in contact with one of Macnamara's luggage-vans, which came in an opposite direction, the pole of the latter forcing its way with great violence through the front panel of the omnibus, immediately behind the off-side horse, and striking with great force the conductor, who happened to be sitting on a seat inside, who was so much injured that, after receiving medical attendance, it was necessary to convey him away in a cab. ortunately, there was only one pas senger inside (a young lad), who escaped without in jury, and from this circumstance, and the fact of neither of the drivers being hurt, this fearful accident termi nating without loss of life is considered most miraculous. RUSSIAN INVASION OF TURKEY.—Last evening a public meeting of the inhabitants of Kensington, Ham mersmith, and the adjacent districts, was held at the Prince Albert Tavern, Notting-hill, for the purpose of taking into consideration the present aspect of the East ern question, and the conduct of the Government in reference to it. The meeting was a very crowded one, and a large number of persons who presented themselves were unable to obtain admission. Mr. C. W. Dunford was called to the chair, and the meeting was addressed by Mr. R. B a t eman , Dr. Truman, Messrs. Nichol a y, Williams, Beneste, -J. W. Howel, and D. Urq u h ar t. The resolutions unanimously adopted, condemned the present system of managing the intercourse of nations, as shown to be injurious by the state of events in the East, and declared the necessity of abandoning secrecy in diplomacy, and attributed the prevailing dearth of provisions more to the conduct of Russia on the Danube than to the defective yield of the late harvest. It was further agreed to appoint a committee to draw up ad dresses to her Majesty the Queen, and the Sultan, and to take measures for their presentation through the usual channels. " In the first account of this lamentable event, when it was impossible that all the details could be ascertained with perfect accuracy, it was erroneously stated that Sir Edward Kennedy was very active in his exertions to afford the sufferers relief. Doubtless, had Sir Edward Kennedy been present, his conduct would have been expected, everything that could be—but he was not there ; and the credit given to him is due to his bro thers, Mr. Robert and Mr. William Kennedy, master of of 0 the Kildare hounds— the latter especially, who c:a a l too highly praised for his kind, humane, and ilidia rl!l n of that exertions on the occasion. In the confusion e awful scene, our informant (Captain Collis) thus originated the erroneous statem . Mr. W. Kennedy with his brot her Sir confounded Edward, and Lilt which we now rectify. reported to be progressing o "The patients in hospital w h o have suffered from this lamentable accident ar e re p favourably. remand at the Imperial Hotel, laid and attended by Dr. Fleming." the victims of the railway collision was untilthaisnddoatyh.er wlittzirlebse„ at Naas.

The attention of the General Board of Health having been called by the coroner to an inquest just held by him, relative to certain deaths from cholera in York row, Pearson-street, Shoreditch, an inspector of the board was directed to examine into the state of the house and locality in which these deaths occurred. From the inspector's report, it appears that five deaths took place in one house in York-row, and two attacks in two other houses in the same row, which did not prove fatal ; that in this entire district there is a total want of proper drainage, and that in the particular instance in which these cholera cases occurred there were privies built up against the backs of the houses. In the house in which the deaths occurred, on which the inquest was held, the cesspool was full up to the floor, and in the adjoining house there was foul liquid matter, to the depth of nine inches, immediately under the floor boards. HIGHWAY ROBBERY BY A SOLDlER.—Yesterday after noon Messrs Legh and Berridge, magistrates for the borough of Windsor, were engaged for some time in the investigation of a charge of highway robbery with vio lence, brought by Charles Holmes, a labourer, residing at Sunning-hill, against Charles Shorrock, a man about 25 years of ago, wearing the uniform of the 11th Regi ment of Foot, and supposed to be a deserter from the Winchester Barracks, where the depot of the 11th is now lying, the regiment being on foreign service. It appeared from the evidence that on Sunday morning, about 9 o'clock, the prosecutor was walking through the Great Park from Sunning -hill in the direction ofWindsor, when he was overtaken by the prisoner, nearly a mile from Lakin's-gate. They entered into conversation, and walked some distance together, but before they arrived in sight of the gate, the prisoner suddenly turned round upon prosecutor, knocked him down, and while he was down, knelt heavily upon him, and attempted to take away his stick. Stunned by the blow, the pro secutor was powerless, and the prisoner proceeded to rifle three of his pockets, leaving him senseless on the road. When prosecutor recovered, he saw the prisoner running away. The prisoner threw away his belt as he ran along. On examining his pockets prosecutor missed his tobacco-box, but some money secreted in ano ther pocket had escaped the search of the prisoner Prosecutor then got up and ran after the prisoner. One of prosecutor's teeth was 'knocked out, his face covered with blood, and it is evident that the attack upon him was of a murderous character:. The prisoner had not proceeded far when he was encountered in the Sheet street-road'by a labourer named May, who saw the pro secutor in the distance, and heard-'him cry out, " Stop him'!" May then 'gave chase; , succeeded in overtaking the prisoner, and gaveliim into the custody of Silver the police-constable.' On searching the prisoner Si! found upon him the tobacoo-box, which was identified by the prosecutor. Thivevidence being thus com plete, . ass i zes for and the prisoner declining to say anythin g in his defence> he was fully committed for trial at the next the county of Bucks. vzszzin.—The THE (SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH AT GRA Submarine and European Telegraph extended opened an office at Gravesend yesterday.

The Glasgow Herald gives a long account of the ship wreck of the Annie Jane, the most interesting portions 411 which we subjoin : It appears that by great efforts the vessel was got clear o:f a reef of rocks which jutted seaward, upon which the waves were breaking furiously, and where it was evident to all that, had the ship struck, not a soul would have survived to tell the tale. Having rounded the reef, the ship got opposite or into Vaternishliay, a large in dentation with a sandy beach ; and, according to the account of one class of the survivors, she was there run ashore to escape the reef of rocks which formed the opposite entrance to the bay ; and, according to the opinion of others, she was forced in by the fury of the gale. Certain it is, that witlma s twenty mi nutes after clearing the reef, and between twelve and one o'clock on the morning of the 29th ult., the ship took the ground with a fearful concussion. All the officers and crew were, of course, on deck at this fearful con j;incture ; but there were also on deck a large number of male passengers, who held on by ropes and rigging, and with feelings of despair contemplated their fate, as indicated by the dull outline 'of the land, and the roar ing of the surf on the beach. Meanwhile, the great ma jority of the passengers, including all the women and children, were below in their berths, but the striking of the ship gave them a fearful wakening. Many rushed on deck in a state of nakedness; wives clung to their hus bands, and children clung to both, some mute from ter ror, and others uttering appalling screams, and eagerly shrieking, "Is there hope ?" In fact, the scene is des cribed by the survivors as the most agonising which it could enter into the heart of man to conceive. The poor creatures had not long to wait for the catastrophe. After the first shock was over the passengers rushed to the boats, three of which were placed between the mizenmast and the poop, and the fourth lay on the top of the cooking-house forward. The lifeboat had already been lost. Bat, as happens too commonly in such me lancholy cases, the boats w ere o f no ear thly u se, for they were all fixed down and secured, or lay bottom up. Indeed, it is extremely questionable if there was any chance of the boats living in such a storm, even had the means of launching been at hand ; and the be lief is, that the passengers had rushed to them from the instinctive hope of obtaining relief thereby, or of pre venting the crew making use of them for their own special preservation. While the passengers were thus clustered round the boats, and within a very few mi nutes after the ship had grounded, she was struck by a sea of frightful potency, which instantly carried away the dense mass of human beings into the watery waste, and boats and bulwarks went along with them. It is the opinion of our informants that at least 100 of our fellow -creatures perished by this fell swoop. The wild wail of the sufferers was heard for a moment, and then all was still—at least, so far as this unhappy group was concerned. The great majority of the women and children, as well as some of the male passengers, remained below, B washeduttbe great theirr away t ship, either p ara l ysed by terror or afraid that they would be watiamyin the ev en t o f t h e i r com i ng upon d ec k . iap, takenhadlso in come.eennexin with Theefrigh her cargo frightful of of railway iron, must have immediately beaten the bottom out of her ; and while her fabric was in this weakened and disrupted state, another dreadful sea broke on board and literally crushed that part of the deck situated between the mainmast and the mizenmast, down upon the berths below, which were occupied by terror stricken women and sleeping children. They were killed rather than drowned, as was fully ev id ence d by the naked, mutilated, and gashed bodies which were afterwards cast on shore. The main and mizen masts went at the same moment. This second branch of the catastrophe took place within a very few minutes after the passengers and part of the crew had been swept away from the deck along with the boats. The most of the remaining seamen and passengers now took refuge on the poop, which was a very high one, and each suc ceeding assault of the sea carried away its victim or vic tims. In short, within ono hour after the Annie Jane struck the remaining stumps of her masts went by the board, and she broke into three pieces. An additional number perished at this disruption ; and all the surviv ors remained on the poop, with the exception of 7 men, who had secured themselves on the topgallant forecastle. The poop fortunately floated well, and, as it was about high water, the wreck was drifted inwards by the wind and each heave of the sea, when it finally grounded about 4 o'clock a.m. The forecastle, with the seven men, came ashore much about the same time. The wreck had been observed from the island almost as soon as the day broke ; and, in the first instance, seven or eight of the Barra men (all who were in the neighbourhood at the time) came down to render such aid as might be in their power. The remains of the mizenmast were still attached by the shrouds to the wreck of the poop, and by the help of the islanders it was placed so as to form a sort of bridge or ladder between the poop and the shal low water ; and, as the tide had now fully ebbed, all the survivors got on shore without much difficulty by seven in the morning. When mustered the survivors were found to number a total of 102, of whom one was a child, 12 were women, and 28 belonged to the crew, exclusive of the captain, who was also saved. When the poop was drifting ashore he secured himself upon its skylight. But the departed friends of the survivors were ashore before them, for the beach was literally lined by their dead bodies, as well as by innumerable fragments of the broken ship, and the light part of her cargo. None of the survivors estimate the loss of life at less than 350, and others consider it close upon 400 souls. The latter would be the case if 500 individuals, including children, were on board, as is generally believed. Almost all the cabin passengers perished, including Captain Munro, of Quebec, and his wife. Only one child was saved. It belonged to a humble Irishwoman, who, with her two children, was about to join her husband in America. She struggled hard to preserve them both, by binding one on her back, and grasping the other in herarms ; but, when the ship parted, the latter was dashed into the sea, and the other remained. Soon after reaching the shore the survivors repaired to a farm-steading, or cluster steerage o There hbeere ef and of houses,. which was not far from the beach, and re paired ther exhausted energies by rest. The women and officers occupied the houses, and the seamen and p w a as sse n n o ge s rs ear l e ar ty do e wn in barn, f provisions,bfyerres,eaVe rstable.nale barrels pork had been washed ashore, and the Barra people supplied potatoes. Then came the burying of the dead. Christian sepulture was deemed impracticable, for the churchyard was 10 miles dist an t, and there were neither carpenters to make coffins nor proper timber to fashion them from for the numerous bodies which lay above the ground. Capacious pits were dug close to the lonely shore, and the poor sufferers were deposited therein, exactly in the state in which they were cast from the wreck—a great; many, as we have said, be ing naked and mutilated. To this style of burial there were only two exceptions—viz., in the case of Mr. Bell, the first mate, and a French Canadian clergyman or priest, for whose remains roughly constructed coffins were made by the surviving carpenters from pieces of the wreck. In this way 260 bodies had been interred up to Monday last, when our informants left the island ; but a great many still remained unburied, and indeed every tide threw them up. The names of the men who have already come from Barra are :—Crew—James Boyd and James Marshall, both of Quebec ; Charles Carrol, Bay of Chaleur ; Thos. Gernmill, Joseph Miller, and Antonio Ligett, of Quebec ; Charles Burden, of New York ; James Wood and Charles Burnet, of Dundee. We have not obtained the names of the other seamen, who are French- Canadians. Passengers.—John Kingston and James Kingston, brothers, from county of Cork ; Timothy Dineur, Cork ; Thomas Edmiston, Antrim ; Alexander M'Cormick, Armagh ; and Twearing, Cork. Such as were saved remained by the wreck until the tide ebbed, when they waded ashore, the water taking them nearly to the armpits. At daylight the bay was strown with dead bodies to the number of nearly 300, greatly disfigured, many of them without limbs and heads and nearly all naked, thereby showing how instant must have been their death, and the fearful strength of the waters which in so short a time made such havoc. The emigrants were mixed English, Irish, and Scotch. A hundred house carpenters and joiners from Glasgow were of the number—fresh, able young men : all of them have perished. They unfortunately had been in that part of the ship immediately above the cargo, which gave way first, and were among the first . that were car ried of. Others perished in ~endeavouring to get ou t of the boats. edss u s to n u AMSIUOAN AIITAIRs.—The steamer fro m America h as broug ht 36,0001. in specie, although her port of depar four; p w e a r s te ß d o . a to s n h . i p A m s e r n e t g s a IJs b a r generalt ff b u es th s i n s o c c o h u a n n tr g y e were in, steady progress, and hig h • freights were de manded.

DEPARTURES FOB AUSTRALIA.—The departures from the port of London for the Australian colonies during the past week have been numerous, including several vessels of a large class. They have altogether com prised 14 :-7 to Port Philip, with an aggregate burden of 4,164 tons ; 3 to Sydney, with an aggregate burden of 1,734 tons ; 2 to Adelaide, with an aggregate bur den of 1,126 tons ; 1 to Swan River, of 381 tons ; and Ito Portland Bay, of 287 tons. Their total capacity was consequently 7,692 tons. The shipments of manu factures and ordinary merchandise continue large, but the rates of freight have further declined. As showing, however, the caution now displayed, it is mentioned that not a single vessel has been put upon the berth for Aus tralia during the last few days. VIENNA.—The mercantile advices from Vienna of the 7th inst. show an increase of financial embarrassment in that city. The lowest rate of discount for the best bills was 7 per cent., and the Austrian Bank were refused three-fourths of those offered. The rate of exchange on London had at the same time advanced from 10.50 to 11. It is remarked that, notwithstanding the gloomy appearance of affairs, their termination in war was stil disbelieved. 29,996 25,000 54,996 16,239 tea" jog I to Tier 'I ter sed ies 12i 124 4 St. St: St. , St. St. 20 100 10J 100 5 100 all 1100 6 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 all 100 10 all 1 all Paid 50 25 12?. 12 20 1100 100 18i
