MOTTISTON, ISLa OF WIGHT, JAN. 20..—HER MAJESTY'S
STU-MEE SPHYNX. LATEST ACCOUNT.— The heavy
ground swell having subsided, attempts were this day made
to heave the ship out of her bed, bat unsuccessfully. She
was about six feet in the sand at the bows, and nearly as
much in the clay and flatners at the stern. The hands on
board hove on the anchors, and two steamers attempted to
tow. She is so high that she is dry at low water ; her funnel
is still standing, and all hands (iccluding the sixty ship-
wrights) are busily employed in getting her into a sea-going
state. Since three o'clock it has come on thick again, with
a light air from the S.E. All her guns, coals, &c., have been
thrown overboard. Four of the unfortunate men drowned
have been picked up, and there are hopes of obtaining the
other three bodies at low water this day. A quantity of
empty casks have been forwarded here from Portsmouth.
