MONDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1853. THERE is always in the tale of human danger, suf fering, and heroism, an indescribable charm. We recur to it again and again with undiminished zest, and feel our natures ennobled by the feats and ex ploits of others. Who does not remember, in his schoolboy days, the delight afforded by stories of shipwreck, and the narratives of navigators ? how accounts of the perils of the sea, and adventures on the land, fired the young soul with enthusiasm, and excited boyish curiosity? We can all, more 9r less, recall those times ; and even now, when the world has done its evil work upon the best part of our nature, and rendered us insensible to many things which formerly were wont to im press us, our sympathies are still moved by these. The well-known correspondent " L.," of the Morn ing Chronicle, has narrated a most thrilling, nervous, a.nd highly elaborate story of the loss of the vessel Meridian, a barque of 579 tons, which sailed from London for Australia on the 4th of July, with 90 passengers, but which became a total wreck on the evening of the 24th August. • The Meridian was a fine, first-class, and fast sailing vessel ; but unfortunately possessed an insufficient crew, and a commander experienced and courteous, but overbold and wanting in judg. ment. For fifteen years he had been in command of various ships, and he often boasted that during that long time he never " lost a single spar nor a man overboard." In his last voyage he had over taken, in the middle of the Indian Ocean, a ship which had left England a fortnight before his own; and it was natural to suppose that, proud of his vessel and his skill, he should become self-elated and deSirous 'of realising even more signal success. Poor HERNAMAN !he has paid the ad penalty of his impulsive nature, indubitable rashness, and . unpardonable foolhardiness. Having overtaken and beaten every ship on the ocean, he suffered the Meridian to run full before the wind—every inch of canvass he could command having been brought . into requisition—notwithstanding that the sea was rough, a gale blowing, and expecting to sight dangerous land in four .or five hours. Although the ship's chronometers were out of order, land he had lost his reckoning, nevertheless he made full sail for the island of St. Paul, one of the most perilous, rocky, and inaccessible spots to be found on the globe, which stands in the centre of the Indian Ocean—a place where desolation reigns—where everything is sterile and dead—and where the only vegetation consisted of a few cab bages, .which had been formerly planted by some shipwrecked mariners of France, to which fortunate circumstance the crew of the ill-fated Meridian ovki their lives. Right into the centre of those crags the vessel ran with full canvass set. The result can better be imagined than described. The correspon dent before alluded to thus describes the occurrence: =--" The tea•things in the cuddy had just been " cleared away, and many of the children were " being undressed, when a smart shock shook the " vessel from stein to stern. At first I believed " that we had run foul of another vessel, but in a " minute or two afterwards, five or six more violent " shocks, accompanied by a peculiar grating sound " at the bottom of the vessel, left no room for " doubt upon the nature of the misfortune which• " had befallen us. Mr. Tulloch, the second-mate, " who came shortly afterwards into the cuddy for " an instant, told me in plain terms that the " vessel was on shore, and for a time all was con " fusion, terror, and despair. The moment that " the vessel struck, Captain HERNAMAN, who was " standing in the passage leading to the cuddy, " rushed up the poop stairs, exclaiming three " times, `Where is Mr. LAMBURD ? (Mr. LAMBURD, " as he himself told me afterwards, was going at " the time towards the galley fire, on the main " deck, for the purpose of lighting his pipe.) As " the captain gained the quarter-deck the awful " truth burst upon him, and with another excla mation of ' My God ! it is the island ! ' he seized " the wheel, and put the helm hard a-starboard. " He then stripped off his coat, waistcoat, and " trousers, shouting, ' Now every man for himself,' " and bade one of the hands, named CHARLES SNOW, " assist him in casting off oue of the hen-coops . . " While they were thus engaged a heavy sea burst " over the poop, and swept him and, SNOW over " board, but SNOW caught a rope as he fell, and " climbed up again into the mizen rigging on the " port side, and thence over to the starboard side " of the poop deck, from which he descended to " the main deck, and sought a temporr,ry refuge "in the main rigging. Mr. LA.Ninuan and some of " the crew climbed into the main:top, others. held " on to other parts of the rigging, exposed, of " course, to the fury of the wares, which repeat " edly washed over them. " It must have been, truly, an awful scene, when " Terror's icy hand Smote their distorted limbs and horrent hair ! " To yiew the rush and crush ( , f despairing human beingsmen, women, and ehldren, broUght into such fearful and sudden proxnnity with death, and struggling bravely for life, rugs a scene which no artist's pencil could touch in colours sufficiently graphic to convey anything iike a real impression of an event so horribly sublime. There is every reason to believe that, notwith standing the Captain's reckless audacity in risking the ship's safety, danger might ;have been averted if those employed on the watch only performed their duty. But what is the fact. Why so consci ous were they of security, that instead of remain in; on . deck they went into the cabin to take repose. Atd then when danger not only threatened but became imminent, out of a nominal crew of twenty three men, ex3lusive of three mates, only ten were mailable. This is a state of things that.demands inprovement. , Indeed, scarcely a vessel reaches Aistralia from our shores, but complaints of some kind or another are made, so that the. authorities there have signified their intention of inquiring into the matter and taking some legal steps, for providing against their recurrence. These facts pore how necessary it is for those upon ,whom responsibility devolves to exercise more vigilance and caution in the equipment of their vessels. A ship might be very fine—an excellent sailer — and perfect in every department, but like the unfortunate Meridian, if commanded by reck less or over-brave men, or have an ineffective or , insufficient crew, it is of very little import ance. If danger be rashly courted is it any wonder that it should become present? If those intrusted with the care of life and property on the pathless track of ocean, rush on as wildly and as madly as if they were driving an express train; or suffer sleep to close their eyelids although consci ously approaching shoals and crags—why if inevitable destruction should follow where is the cause for wonderment ? He who seeks danger most likely will perish thereby. Reason and ex perience bear testimony to this law of nature. After the unfortunate Mr. HERNAMNN had been washed overboard, the crew became ungovernable. However, the excellent. wisdom of " L.," the first mate, and the majority of the passengers, tended to counteract that calamity. After having been cribb'd in the hulk, whose timbers were fast break ing up, for nearly the whole night, exposed to a terrible sea, whose waters were momentarily threatening to swallow up every soul on board, by the extraordinary energy of " L.," Mr. Le s .ar- SURD, the first mate, and .some of the passengers, with great difficulty and danger, every one on hoard, except three who happened to be washed off the deck, with the captain, when the vessel struck, had been safely secured on the island, although drenched, cold, and hungry. Here they remained for the long period of thirteen days, exposed to the greatest privations, with little pro vision, and on a barren rock, upon whose surface it was impossible to walk without having the feet severely lacerated. And there can be little doubt but that for the wisdom displayed by the corre spondent of the Morning Chronicle in taking charge of the fragmentary stores, nearly all should have perished of starvation, Strange ! that among the whole group of sailors and passengers only one could be found—and he a literate by profession, and unacquainted with danger—to command and direct in a season of alarming danger and respon sibility. At one time their hope became elevated —the Monmouth hove in sight, but, owing to stress of weather, had to put out to sea again. Howef•er, when despair had nearly taken possession Of every heart, the long-looked for deliverance arrived; and the starving and exhausted and heroic sufferers were conducted to the Monmouth by the mate of that vessel, to whom much honor is due, who gal lantly landed on that bleak and barren island in search for them. The conduct of the unfortunate captain of the ill-fated Meridian may serve to inculcate an excel lent moral. It teaches that successes are no less dangerous than failures ; and that prosperity often becomes the forerunner of adversity. When good fortune is about to crown our exploits—when our minds are inflated with self-sufficiency—and when we are ready to cry Eureka ! disappointment comes quick and terrible, like the crash of an avalanche, blasting our sanguine expectations, and burying in an untimely grave all the darling hopes we so long and fondly cherished. It teaches, too, that pru dence is the best part of valour, and that the most daring courage cannot atone for the absence of ordinary caution. We hope the lesson this cala mity affords may not be fruitlessly thrown away. LIZ importance of the Board of Trade returns for the month 'ending the sth of November can scarely be overrated, as they exhibit a state of things very different to that which the public are led to believe from reading the daily, weekly, and monthly circulars of trade. These one and all talk of depression, declines, downward tendency, and gloomf *prospects, while the official returns show increase upon increase in • every branch of industry and trade. As compared with the returns for the same period of .1852, they exhibit an in crease in the declared value of our exports of no less than 1,812,3601. In this increase our great metal and mineral staples which yield an unbroken circle of profit- to this country, form a leading feature. Next to these articles, haberdashery shows a marked increase. And here it must be remembered that the articles included under this head, give—owing to the prodigious diversity of skill required in their manipulation—employment to almost every class of the industrial community. An increase in this branch of our exports must therefore be a source of great national advantage. The increase under this head for the last month. was 137,2291., which is considerably more than the whole value of the haberdashery exported in the same period last year. . . When we turn to those manufactures which affect our agricultural interests, we find the same gratifying results. The value of the beer, ale, butter, and cheese exported for the month amounts to 114,7701., being an increase over the corresponding period of 1852 of 43,2701. If we look to the manufactures composed of foreign raw materials—cotton goods and yarn—we find the aggregate value exported within the month was 2,161,5251., being an increase over the same period last year of no less than 231,963/. The value of our silk manufactures exported was 139,2401.; which gives an increase for the month of 42;119/. The woollen goods and yarns exported are valued at 420,4951., being an increase of 137,2411. In ma chinery and hardwares, two branches of employ ment which yield the highest return for labour, the value exported for the month was 391,7481., being an-increase of 134,5881. Hence, it will be seen, by the foregoing review, the returns which relate to our leading manufac turing interests, are most satisfactory, and show the increased demand that existed fOr both capital and labour, while in the imports of breadstuffs for the month, we find not only a decrease of 176,815 quarters, but also a decrease in the quantity taken for home consumption of . 128'805 quarters, which shows that in the absence of any wild speculative demand, the decreased supply was equal to our re quirements, and that there was even a surplus of grain imported, amounting to 102,000 quarters. This - is a fortunate circumstance' for' the country which alarmists ought not to lose sight of, as it shows very clearly that there must have been a better supply of home production brought to mar ket, and• taken for home consumption.' Encouraging as we find the returns of the month when taken in detail, the value of our exports, taken in the aggregate, for the first ten months of the year, are equally SQ; During ',that period they amounted to 73;155,755/. against 59,247,1041., for the same period' f 1852, being an increase al 3,008;651/, or 23i per cent.; and when compared. with the re turns for 1851, they show an increase of 15,029,699/. To show the steadiness of trade during the periods to which - these returns relate, we subjoin a sum mary of the increase in each month : Month ending Increase.

In all the other articles we have named„the increased exports. have been sufficiently great to justify the increased importations of those articles; and as they will, in the great majority of cases, . realise large profits in bullion, we see no reason to be apprehensive as to the future. On the contrary, we believe there will be less demand for money for hypothecation, than we have experienced hitherto. The increased dif fusion of wealth among nearly all the countries With 'which we trade, will render the demand for advances against produce very limited. In India there is an excess of about 7,000,0001. over the actual wants of the country, and in Australia the demand has almost entirely ceased; the effect of this must be to render money more abundant and cheaper in England. That portion of the Navigation Returns which relates to vessels employed in our trade with the British dependencies, foreign countries, and Ire land, are no less satisfactory than those we have already noticed. The number of vessels entered inwards, from our Colonies and Foreign ports, for the ten months ending the Gth of November, were 29,866, with an aggregate tonnage of 6,546,320.. against 24,983 ships, with an aggregate ton_ nage of 5,531,162, in . 1852, being an increase of 4,883 ships . , and 1,010,858 tons. The vessels cleared outwards for the same period, were 29,699, with an aggregate tonnage of 6,462,035, against 27,770 vessels, and 5,879,313 tons, in the same period last year, being an increase of 1,929 ships, and 582,722 tons. In the vessels employed in the intercourse be tween Great . Britain and Ireland, we notice a proportionable increase in tonnage, while there appears to be a slight decrease lathe number of vessels. The tonnage for the present year is 11,350,010, against 11,187;557 for the same time in 1852, being an increase of 162,453 tons ; while the number of vessels employed in 1853, are only 123,599, against 126,342 in 1852, being a decrease of 2,743 ships. The continuous decrease noticea ble in this important branch of our coasting trade may be ascribed entirely to the employment of vessels of a larger and superior class. Improve ments in the general management - of steam vessels by which a fewer number of boats are made to perform a greater amount of work, may also be assigned as a reason which accounts for the de crease alluded to ; but as • long as the tonnage Continues increasing we may rest assured that both the traffic and the character of the ,vessels, employed in it, are improving. Finally, we can only repeat that the publication of the returns be fore us, at a moment when the mind of the public is filled with the most singular apprehensions as to the real condition of the trading and commercial interests of the country is an event of the very utmost importance ; and if the facts which they bring-to light are only appreciated to the extent they ought to be, we may hope to see a speedy return of confidence, which will lead to still greater and more favourable results. On Saturday night, about half-past seven o'clock, the "Sailor" flat, laden with coal, was run down, nearly opposite the landing-stage, by one of the Seacombe ferry-boats. No lives; fortunately, were lost. The " Sailor" was the property of Mr. Simcox, of Norwich. THE LATE • EXTENSIVE FORGERY IN LIVERPOOL.—Mr. M'Curtin is still at large, although the most active measures have been taken for his apprehension. We learn that on Saturday evening Mr. Riley, Mr. M'Curtin's partner and father-in-law, and Mr. Riley, jun., were apprehended by two officers of the detective force. The precise nature of the charge upon which they have been apprehended has not transpired, but they are to come before the magistrates to day, when the whole affair must transpire. SAILINGS FOR AUSTRALIA..—The splendid clipper-ship " Matilda Wattenbach " sailed yesterday from the Mersey, with the Australian mails, and a large number of passengers. There is no doubt this fine ship will make a rapid run. The American-steam-ship " Golden Age," notwithstanding the injury she sustained, is again ready for sea, and will sail, we believe, during the course of to-day. The British and North American royal mail steam-ship Asia sailed on Saturday from the Mersey, with the usual mails, a fair cargo, and 105 passengers. ACCIDENT YESTERDAY AT MANCHESTER. Yesterday (Sunday) morning, about half-past ten o'clock, an accident took place in Union-str, t, Salford, by which four children have been severely iarned. ' It appears that for some purpose connected with their works, Messrs. Mather and Platt, of the Salford Iron Works, were raising, about the time above-mentioned, in their yard, a large " three-legs," or hoist, and in order to make it steady during the operation of raising,. ropes were attached from the top of two chimneys in the neighbourhood. The pressure upon one of the chimneys was so great, that it gave way and fell. The consequence was, that the bricks and rubbish fell from the roof into one of the rooms occupied by Mr. George M'Guire,. Union-street. At the time of the accident, four of Mr. M'Guire's children were seated in front of the fire, and they have been severely burned by the heated materials thrown out from the fire-place. Two medical gentlemen were speedily on the spot, and rendered what aid was requisite under the circumstances. On inquiry late last evening, we were informed that the children were going on favourably. ConorrEn's INQUESTS. —On Saturday, the following inquests were held before Edward Harford, Esq., coroner for the city of Manchester :—Touching the death of Ann Whiteridge, aged forty.:eight years, the wife of a printer, who was found drowned in the Rochdale Canal, on the 3rd instant-- verdict, that the deceased drowned herself while in a state of temporary insanity.—On the body of Elizabeth Eckersley, of Whittle-street, aged thirty years, who died suddenly on the 2nd instant. It was supposed that the deceased came to her death in consequence of the effects of injuries inflicted upon her by her husband. This, however, turned out to be incorrect, for after a careful investigation the jury found a verdict, that the deceased died from natural causes, accelerated by drinking.— On the body of Ann Filtham, of 92, Blossom-street, aged twenty-seven years, who got burned, through her clothes catching fire while she was in a state of intoxication—verdict, accidentally burned. ATTEMPTED • HOUSE ROBBERY.—On Saturday morning. at the Salford town-hall, three persons named Josiah Mains, John Doron and Martin Mulney, were placed before the magistrates, on a charge of having broken into a house with intent to steal therefrom. It appears that on Friday after noon, Miss Cantrell a dress-maker, left her house, No. 7, Southern's-place, Cross-lane, when all was safe. At about six o'clock, a sister of the prosecntrix, who lives in the neigh bourhood, saw two men in the house, one having a candle in his hand, and the other looking into a cupboard.. She im mrdiately gave an alarm, upon which the two men in the house jumped out 'of it through a window. One of them was speedily apprehended, and the others were subsequently taken into custody. The robbers did not succeed in taking any thing away, although they had collected a quantity of wearing apparel, which they had tied up for removal, when the alarm took place. Remanded to Monday. 461VETAR,}" ATD CO..IOLERC II : '.! DvEnron, SuNDAY The Oriiloco arrived. at Falmouth on. from the West. Indies.
