THE GREAT BRITAIN.
LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY.—We have no further intel-
ligence of moment to-day with regard to the Great
Britain.
We subjoin the closing letter from a correspon-
dent :

.Ary
commDuUnNicDatTtioUnAtlo-BdaAyYm,
uTsutEnsencelsrsaAriFjEbneNmooeaNg.re
from the absence of any occurrence of note since the
dispatch of my last letter. One melancholy fact, how-
ever, it is my duty to state. 'there is now no hope left
that the Great Britain can be rescued, at least for the
present. To-day the spring tides reached their climax,
but again the violence of the seaway in the bay pre-
vented the approach of assistance.
Last night, at high water, it blew freshly from the
cast ; but this morning the ship did not appear to have
materially altered her position, though it is probable she
had forged ahead in some degree. When the hour of
high water arrived, the ship appeared to float to some ex-
tent. The steam-tugs, however, which at daylight had
returned to the offing, could not near the vessel, and it
was evident to all practical men that there was little or
no chance of her Icing got off unle,s some extraordi-
nary power of fictath.n were brought into requisition.
The ship's fore and aft rails were spreaa on her foremast
during tite wonting, apparently with the view of keep-
ing the head from forging upon the ledge of rode which
prOcti from the sank at the disteoce of some 70 yards
from the stern. 1 !eft the spot at the ebb of the tide.
The steam-tugs left in the course of the day. The
surf in the offing on their appearance this morning w.ts
running very high, and (410 of them drew off towards
Annaba)? Point, about S.W. from the ship, and we
have since seen no more of her. The Dread-
nought, however, anchored a long way outside,
and, though she got her steam well up, she did
not venture to come in shore, although signals were
several times hoisted on the Great Britain's mizen to
bring to if possible. The surf, caused by the gale and
the inset of the tide upon the rocky and dangerous coast,
rendered the attempt unadvisable, and Captain Hosken
was compelled early in the afternoon to signalise her
departure. It had been intended to dispatch the crew
and stores of the ship in her to Liverpool. The arduous
duties of these two fine steamers have been well per-
formed, and their commanders have throughout acted
with the greatest skill and energy. .

LIVERPOOL, FRlDAY.—Disas.Gous accounts have been
again received from Dundrum Bay; and these accounts,
together with the fact made known by Captain Claxton,
that the rivets in the ship's bottom started on Monday
last, have tended to confirm the fears which, during the
last few days, have gained ground in the public mind,
that the ill-fated vessel' will never be rescued from
her present position. there can be little question
that the injuries announced in the managing director's
letter have been materially increased by the gale and the
heavy seas which had set in on Monday last upon the
shores of Dundrum Bay.
We subjoin a letter from a correspondent:—
DUNDIUJM BAY, WEDNESDAY NOON, OCT. 7.

My report to-day will be comparatively uninteresting.
The springs have now passed, and the opportunity of
getting the Great Britain off has been lost. Last night's
tide was accompanied with a heavy gale, and the Great
Britain this morning appears to have forged some fifteen
yards further up the beach, with her head pointing
N.N.W. She is not now afloat, but high tide will again
make in about half an hour, and she may possibly then
move. It cannot, however, be for the better. The
wind is now blowing almost a gale from the south; the
sea setting right into the bay lashes violently under the
ship's stern, and the salt spray is bursting in clouds
over half the length of her decks. The scene is grand
and impressive in the extreme. The bight of the bay
on the north and west from the coast-guard station-
house, where I now write, presents, from the rolling of
a terrific and rapid succession of waves, a most sublime
appearance, as, indeed, does the whole of this rocky and
stony coast, extending from St. John's Point lighthouse
to Annalong Point to the south, where the lofty Mourne
Mountains terminate in the sea. The distance between
these two points, forming the outer boundaries of the
bay, is perhaps twenty miles.
The rudder of the ship has disappeared for some days,
and the screw-propeller appears to be considerably in-
jured. There can be no question that the vessel is
thumping on the shore, and she has made from time to
time during the last few days an immense quantity of
water.

The country people are still engaged in removing the
discharged coals from the beach, but some still, I learn,
remain on board.

ONE O'CLOCK, P.M.

The storm keeps increasing as the tide becomes nearly
full, and it is now accompanied by a heavy beating rain
and spendrift, which dashes against the look-out- win-
dows of the station-house. The surf continues to wash
over the ship more and more violently, and she presents
a truly saamde is specsttarcaed and h
spectacle. The greerabtuptrtoubmabiniljtutyreids; thatbut theher
whole
real facts cannot be ascertained until low water. She
has still several chain cables and anchors out astern, but
they appear to be slack; and as the ship has all the
morning had her forward gaffsail or spanker set, I think
it likely that all hopes of getting her off are abandoned,
and that the object now is to forge her on as far as pos-
sible upon the beach, in order that her position may be
rendered secure, or that if she be broken up the mate.
rials may be better secured. The ship rolls slightly,
and has apparently altered her position. Her bow lies
to the north. Her larboard quarter is most exposed to
the sc a.

Foun O'CLOCK, p.m.

The tide has fallen but little, if anything, from the
ship. She has shifted her stern to about N.W. I fear
she must have sustained deplorable damage; and should
the gale continue, I cannot but apprehend that the tide
will be forced beyond its proper bounds; and that the sea-
way may prove still more disastrous to the noble but ill-
fated vessel.

We annex the following from the Noz thern Whig :
WEDNESDAY MORNING, NINE O'CLOCK, A.M.

Last night's weather has given a more severe trial to
the unfortunate Great Britain than she has had to en-
counter since she came ashore here. The wind is now
about due south, blowing stiffly, and the seaway in the
bay is absolutely terrific. There is not, except the
Great Britain herself, a single craft of any dimensions
within view, nor is there the slightest chance that any
can, during this, the last of the high tides, approach
her. The war of the waves dashing themselves into
minute particles of foam upon the rocks at the edge of
the coast, borders on the sublime, and the spray which
beats against the larboard side of the Great Britain,
which lies to seaward, falls in a shower into the tide on
the starboard side ; the waves, at intervals, rising over
her stern, and washing her so far fore as her main-
mast. _ _ .

The country people are still engaged carting off the
coals, a considerable heap of which lie on the beach yet.
That she can never leave the spot she now occupies
amounts to all but an absolute certainty. The captain is
still in charge of her, and continues on board. One of
the crew just now informed me that a number of the
hands leave her to-day ; but Ido not pledge myself to
the accuracy of the statement. I have heard rumours
also respecting handing her over to the insurance com-
pany's agents, but as I had no opportunity of informing
myself in authentic sources, I do not feel myself at liberty
to state them.

direction of the coast-guard station-house, from the
window of which we have been taking observations for
the" last two hours, as the rain is falling heavily. The
water does not, from this, appear to have made any im-
pression on her works ; but, as I mentioned before, there
is no point on shore whence one can see her larboard
quarter, the part exposed, in the greatest degree, to the
violence of the waves. A portion of the gangway, used
for the purpose of getting on board at ebb tide, was
loosened, and drifted on shore last night. This, of
course, is not a fact of any great importance, inasmuch as
it may not have been secured very strongly to its berth.
She cannot, however, were she every inch of steel, stand
much longer, in such a sea.
The captain keeps up the foregaffsail still ; but it can-
not well be imagined that she can drift much nearer the
beach than she is at present. It is blowing nearly a gale
now, and the rain is falling in torrents. The only cir-
cumstance which could make any of the succeeding
tides at all high enough for the purpose of floating her
off, namely, a stiff breeze to the land, would render it a
task of impossibility for any craft to come near her ; so
that, viewed as it may be, there is not the slightest chance
left for it.

FOUR O'CLOCK, P.M.
The tide has now receded about half-way, and leaves
the Great Britain much the worse for the beating of the
heavy sea to which she has been exposed. She is evi-
dently in a very bad and leaky condition ; some of the
sailors stated to me to-day that water was nearly as high
within her as it rose on her outside. One of the sails on
her foremast has been set during the day, at least since
ten o'clock ; and the effect of this has been to put her as
far as she can be expected to come upon the shore. The
wind has settled considerably ; but the idea of endea-
vouring to get her off seems to have been entirely given
up. The only course now left is to get what she con-
tains as expeditiously ashore as possible.
The following is an extract from a private letter with
which we have been favoured by a gentleman residing in
town. The letter was written at Dundrum, on Monday;
and we may mention, that its author is an experienced
seaman :—" The gale of the last two days has decided
her fate ; all sail is now set to harden her higher up on
the beach. She sprung a leak last night, and makes
now two feet water per hour. I believe they intend to
let her remain here until next summer."

THE MAILS. SOUTHAMPTON, OCT. 2. The

Madrid, Captain Bingham, arrived here at four P
and landed the Peninsular and other mails. Her dates
are—Gibraltar, Sept. 28, Cadiz, 29, Lisbon, Oct. 2. She
has 24 passengers, and good cargo. The Madrid has
experienced very bad weather, both out and home. The
Royal Tar, Captain llamilton, with Peninsular and
other mails, and 30 passengers, left the dock at three
P.M on Wednesday, but, from the severity of the gale,
she was compelled to anchor for the night in Yarmouth-
roads, in the course of which she broke from her moor-
ings, losing two anchors and cables. The Royal Tar
returned to this port, and procured new anchors, &c.,
and proceeded at noon en route for Gibraltar. The
storm of wind and rain with which this port has been
visited without intermission since Friday last has been
most tremendous, and at present does not seem likely to
abate. The Lady de Saumarez, Guernsey mail-packet,
left the pier on Tuesday evening, with the mails and 53
passengers, but was obliged, in consequence of the
weather, to come-to off Calshot Castle. She returned
to Southampton on Wednesday night, and left again at
seven P.M. yesterday. The Achilles, Captain Wilson, is
due to-morrow from Alexandria, with East India and'
China mails. It can hardly be expected she can be here
to time. The Transit steam-vessel, belonging to the
New South-Western Company, is daily expected from
Vigo, with a cargo of cattle.
