We have heard much of the iron noun

destitute of earth and vegetations, and is

Shin Burnt.-The Ship Tagus, Pratt.

Ship Bunt.-The Ship Tagus, Prstt,
of Boston, lying at the Levee, n. Orleans,
loading for Liverpool, with 600 bales of
cotton in her hold, was discovered to be on
fire, on the evening Of Feb. 2l. She lay in
the midst of other shipping, and in order to
prevent the flames from communicating TO
other vessels, her matches were kept down,
which made the combustion proceed very
slow. The engines were at the spot, but
for long time could render little assistance.
In spite of their zeal and activity, the fire
gained the ascendency. Surrounded on all
sides by flames, the vessel sunk about , o.
clock p. NJ, the next day. A part of the
bales which had caught fire, were thrown
into the water, but others in the hold, could
not be exringuished, and even when the
vessel sunk, those floating continued to
blaze till 6 o'clock. The ship and cargo
n total loss. Some bales are saved but the
number is small. The fact of their having
been pressed, served to render them impen-
etrAble to the water, and they continued to
burn while floating down the stream. In
the afternoon, small vessel having attemp-
ted to pass between two of these floating
combustibles, actually took fire, which was
with difficulty extinguished. The Tagus
belonged to WIN. Tucker & Sons, and
Capt Pratt, and was insured in Boston for
$4,000. The cotton was insured in New
Orleans. The fire is supposed to have been
the effect of damp in the cotton. She was
a splendid ship of 5SI tons, on her first
voyage. She was built at Cohasset, last
summer, under the inspection of Capt.
Pratt, and was considered one of the finest
vessels that ever sailed from this port.
