6ol, af Nr,iHa-Capt. George w. Putnam,
Of the ship Crusoe of Salem, has written home to
his owners a minute account OF the late deslruc-
tive hurricane at Manila, in which that vessel
among others was wrecked. 1t happened Oh the
asd of October. Captain p. was on shore and
could not get of to his ship. He writes under
date of the 18th of November, and we make the
annexed extracts from his letter:
"AtSP NJ. the wind blew q hurricane, and
houses and trees began to fall. A lighter of Rice
for the Crusoe. with about $50 piculs on board,
went down at her anchors, and both lighter aud
cargo were lost Wind NV"
"At11P. NJ. the typhoon ragged with great
fury, the main top gallant mast and flying Jio boom
blew away, breaking of in their caps; the snip
pitching fnrecastle and bow spirit under. A Few
minutes after H., the ship began to drag home
her anchors; she soon fell oil broadside to the
wind, struck adrift, aud fell on her beam ends
with her lower yard arms IN the water. Assoon
as possible veered out all the chains to be got at,
which brought her up for short time. AT ii
P Nj. the sea made complete sweep from
the bows to the taffrall, taking away every move
able thing from the deck, and rendering 1t dan
rerous Tor the men to stand there. At midnight,
i blew 80 hard, that, to use the first officers ex
pression, he could neither see hear, nor stand,
and again the ship fell off broadside to the wind,
and went over on her beam ends-all hands hold.
ing the upper side of the ship in the chains and
rigging"
The ship struck about l O'Clock, two OF her
masts having been previously cut or carried
away.
About Z A. NJ. the wind shifted suddenly to
the NNF., and blew as hard or harder than ever;
our mizen mast at this time blew of, about Is
feet above deck. A, 4 A. NJ. the typhoon abat-
ed and the sea went down nearly as fast as it
rose.
"The sun never rose over more destructive
scene than Manila and bay presented on the
morning Of the l4th. Eight out of eleven ships
living at Manila and Cayta. were ashore, the
others nearly on shore, their bare halls only APP
bearing above the horizon. On shore, in the vi
entity OF Manila it is computed that 10000 hou-
sas blew down and that 10000 men. women and
children were hOuseless. The Converts have
given 25, 900 dollars for the relief Of the suffer
ers.''
"All the provisions, cabin furniture. riggi ng.
SC. together with all INV charts. and some of my
clothes, are ,ost. The specie is safe. No lives
los,-and only one man wounded. not dangerous
~"
The cargo Of the Crusoe was all destroyed;
and it was doubtful whether Captain P. would
b. able to save the hull Of his vessel. -BoSton

Bank Of the United States. "A resolution pass
ed the House of Representatives yesterday, by a
large majority, instructing our Senators in Con-
gress, and requesting the Representatives, to ex-
ert their influence IN favor of re-chartering the
Bank of the United States We believe this ex-
preston of the views of the legislature comedies
with those of the entire commercial community
of New Orleans, and of the people of the State
generally. Without some uniform and sound
currency throughout the Union, this City and
State would suffer more than any other from dis
advantageous aud ruinous rates OF exchange; our
commerce would be paralysed by refusal to re-
charter the Bank.

NAPLES, Dec. 80, 1881.

NAPLES, DeC. on, 1901.
Eruplion of Vesurius. the lava fror
vesuvius, on the side from Pompeii, had cease
to flow for nearl ytwo months, and the volcano
with the oco osional eruption of thick smoke
had been toleraby quiet. we were suddenly alar
med, on the evening of Christmas day,by seen
considerable stream of lava flowing down tn
side Of the mountain towards Naples, or NOR
properly Portici, precisely on the way by whic
travellers usually ascend frcm the hermitage Sal
vatore. Previously, in the morning, we had re
| marked circumstances which seemed to prognos
ticate this event. During the whole day the en-
tire declivity Of the mountain had been envelop
ed in dense fog. which remained stationary
and proved to be the smoke from the burning
lava, that became visible at the approach of even
| ing.
| On the first evening, the stream reached tn
valley of Atro del Cavallo, which lies at the FOO
Of the mountain. On the second day. the Goth
it made turn towards the right, as seen frOu
this place, in the direction towards Reslna; TIN
hermitage lies on the right. and will therefore es
cape. 1t appears that it flows IN the enormon
bed of the lava cf 1922. and will. it is honed, ex
pend itself in it before it reaches the VINEYARDS
But should it last lunser than the preceding one
on the opposite side, it may possibly occasion
much damage, as the VINEYARDS are here mucf
nearer to The crater. This stream has not beer
accompanied by any unless very partially erup
tons from the crater; though some persons affirm
that they have heard detonations at this place.
Thus we have everv night scene before us, to be
hold which alone would repay visit to Naples.

back. The Lancet, London paper OF Feb. 4th,
presents most singular case related BY DIR. Da
vid Burnes, of the English NAVY, in which a
large steel fork was lately extracted from the back
of sailor on board of the English Man of War
Ship Belvidera, without the surgeons, or any
person under whose eye the man had been for a
very long period, being able to obtain any clue to
the mode in which, or the time when,it got there.
The presence of the fork was first denoted BY a
small tumour between the right shoulder blade
and the spine; nearly two months after the APP
pearance of which. the fork, to the astonishmen,
OF every one present, was cut out BY DIR. Burnes.
The man. on being questioned. when first the end
Of the fork was seen BY DR., Burnes, as TO the ma
ture Of the piece of steel, expressed himself (savs
the Doctor as much astonished as we were at its
presence, and said he should not have known it.
had we not told him, and had he not felt pain
from our pulling it with the forceps. He had
never been in action. nor did he recollect having
received any wound by which it could have been
introduced About two inches below the open

white speck, the size Of a leech-bite: but rather
resembling the mark left many years after vacci-
