WRECKS IN THE BLACK M.

Mr. Hopper, the surveyor for Lloyd's, who re-
turned to town on the 15th, reports that the coast from the
mouth of the Bosphorous to Padma, a distance of 40 miles,
was, during his tour of inspection of nine days, strewn
everywhere with grain and wreck. He awiertaioed also
that the barque Hrirmion, Captain Scott, which was re-
ported miring for some weeks, had been completely lost
with all hands at Karabouroou. A few days subsequently
the brig Princess /loyal was lost 20 miles west of the same
place, but fortunately her crew were saved. The next wreck
reported was • Turkish vessel, eight miles west of the
Bosphorus ; the crew, IR in number, succeeded hi gain-
ing the shore, but before they could reach Kilee, the
nearest place of shelter—about half an hour's journey—
thirteen died from cold. Amongst the other wrecks »-
Wadfrom the Black See we have to note the brig Fanny,
with all hands not far from Sloops. She Lad on board
the captain sod two mates of the barque Cairo, recently lost
off Bertlianski. The bodies of her unfortunate crew being
washed ashore were humanely buried by the people living
es the Gout, where they were thrown up. The barque
George Avery, with fourteen hands, is now reported some
timo missing. She was last seen, totally disabled, near
Theodosia, by an Austrian vessel, which, iu consequence of
her own crippled state, could render no assistance. There is
hardly • doubt of this vessel having foundered. Capt. Pater-
son, of the George Avery, lost another vessel (the Mathes)
in the Black Sea in DllO.. DNA the entire crew of which
also perished. The total number of English seamen re-
ported lost in the Black Sea during the past three weeks is
49. In addition to these disasters, two large reseals, whose
gap were not ascertained, were seen from the shore at
Lisa to founder, with the total loss of all bands. Another
brig foundered, with all hands, off Buyukdere. The loss
of Greek craft has also been very heavy. Thirty-one vessels
aro reported missing, and are supposed to have foundered
with their crews. At the Dardaoelles a hoe Norwegian
vessel was driven ashore, and, although reported • total
wreck by Mr. Calvert, was, after being sold, contrary to ad-
vises gent to town, easily got off, and was found very
slightly damaged. The brig Mina, Captain Nelson, of Bos-
ton, from Marseilles to IhKel, was lost near the Dardanelles
on the 10th, crew all caved,—Lemont Herold of Jan. 22.
