Shipwreck and so lioes lost.-An arri-
val al Boston brings the intelligence Of
the wreck Of the brig Florence, Captain
Rose, on the coast Of Newfoundland, be.
ing on her return from Rotterdam. She
had crew of s, and 70 passengers. Be-
ing thrown upon the reef and capsized,
Captain Rose succeeded in getting ashore
on ledge with his crew, save one who
perished, as the only means of saving the
lives of the distressed passengers. But Of
the .79 only 80 were rescued The wretch
ed survivors wandered in this inhospitable
region four days, with nothing but the bark
ofthe trees to eat, and with scast cloth.
ing, when they reached on the 18th, the
harbour and village of Rounse., The hos.
pitable inhabitants furnished them with
every necessary relief, and vessel TO take
them to St. Johns, the residence of the u.
8. consul. There too, every needed aid
was readily afforded, and the captain and
mate have reached Boston. -
The Florence was owned by Captains
Rose, Messrs. Badger & Peck, and Mes
srs. Badger g. Messerode, and was insured
in New York for 81 ! 900 which will cover
her loss.

Ifa piece of wood which floats on the wa.
ter, be forced down to great depth in the
sea. the pressure Of the surrounding liquid
will be SO severe, that quantity of water
will be forced into the pores of the wood,
and SO increase its weight that it will no
longer be capable of floating or running to
The surface. Hence the timber of ships,
which foundcred in a part of the ocean,
have never risen again TO the surface, like
those which are sunk ncar the shore. A
diver may with impunity plunge to certain
depths in the sea; but there is a limit be.
yond which he could notlive under the
pressure to which he is subject For the
same reason, it is probably that there is a
depth below in which fishes cannot live.
They have according to Joshlin, been

VIna1N1A.-The results Of the recent
Democratic Convention at Charlottesville,
are in the highest degree cheering, as will
be seen by the following paragraph:
During the session a committee compo-
scd of twenty three Delegates, one from
each electoral district, gentlemen Of dis
cretion and character, was appointed to
ascertain the probable state ofpart;es OF
Virginia. BY a comparison of calcula-
tions, and after making liberal allowances
for Wing claims, it was decided that there
would be Democratic majority in fifteen
Districts, and a Wing majority in eight,
making the majority Of Mr.. Van Buren,
59ls. On this, the editor Of the Rich
mond Enquirer remarks: I" For our own
part, we have tried some of these calcu-
lations by the information we had previ-
ousIy received from numerous counties,
and we have come to the conclusion, that
-four friends do their duty, we shall carry
the whole state by at least 1000. We
learn that our cause is gaining i'll all dl-
rections, as light pours upon the people,
