A Portland paper, Of 9Th inet seys:-
sThe wind blew 4 tremendous gale ina
night Rom the South accompanied with
rain-a French ship was seen from the
Observatory in the ofing, yesterday, from
8 o'clock till in the afternoon with signal
for pilot-it blowing fresh from the ,.
East and the r. Cutter being absent no
boat could get out to her. Fears are en-
tertained for her safety.
SHlPwREcKs.-The British bark Allan
tic, Cap, Herald, Of London, from LIVER
pool, bound to this port, went ashore n
Far Rockaway, Monday morning, before
aylight, on the sand bar, at the mouth
Of the inlet. Out Of upwards OF eighty
passengers that were on board, but 10 or
20 women and children had been landed,
and as the vessel had biIged, and most
tremendous sea being on at the time, wssh
rising sea withsl, great fears were en-
tertained that oil would not be enabled TO
escape from watery grave. The coun-
try people who lived in the vicinity, had
come down tothe beach, with wagons, ,and
az the sufferers landed, took them TO their
dwellings, with the usual hospitality ofths
Long lsland farmers. The cargo, which
consisted Of non and salt, will be totally.
lost, together with the vesssl,s
"A schooner was also discovered to be
ON shose at daylight yesterday morning,
three miles from the bark, in a situation
equally dangerous. A boat was seen to
leave her about 8 o'clock, with a number
OF persons in it but it swamped before j,
got clear OF the breakers. Whether the
crew were drowned or not, our informant
was not able to say, but he is fearful that
they must have been, as they were a long
distance from the beach, and the sea was
making continual sweep over them
The schooner had the appearance of o
N orfolk packet, and her destruction was
considered az inevitable.
The northeast storm on Sunday, which
we in the city felt but lightly, ragged on
the coast with violence that threatened
destruction to every mariner who was SO
unfortunate as not to have good 9thng
and we are fearful that the number o
shipwrecks that were occasioned by it, has
rot yet been ascertained.
