Further Particulars OF the Loss OF tho


Mr. Brooks of the Express, one OF the passen-
gers on board the Sheffield, has given the full de-
tails of her wreck on Saturday. They took a n.
Y. Pilot on board at ! O'Clock. about 40 miles
from the city, the wind blowing strong from the

ficient time to make IT, the officers Of the ship be.
gan to be anxious, and orders were given to heave
the lead Before this could be executed the shin
struck; at first gently, but the shock growing
heavier with every succeeding one TIL the shin
threatened TO break in pieces under their violence.
CONSERVATION spread over the ship, and the mul.
ttudc of storage with the few cabin passengers
rushed on deck, each intent on his own safety.
The cries and shricks Of those whose hopes of
terminating their long voyage prosperousy were
thus suddenly destroyed were painful and heart
rcndine. The falling rain and driving mist, and
heavy sea making a clear breach over the dis,
mastcd vessel, and the heavy shocks as she fell
on the bottom, and the increasing darkness Of
night conSpired to render the scene one OF the ut
most gloom and terror. The fortunate change Of
the wind TO the North West however, and the
cheerful light of the moon rising at y O'Clock
raised their hopes Signals of distress had been
tlving from the mas.s while they stood, and blue
lights and rockets burned. The water, however,
rapidly gained upon the ship and the passengers
were driven from the CABIN to take shelter in the
round.housc and on deck. The hours Of tee

! Old Virginia.

1t is becoming the prevalent opinion that VIR-
GINA will cast her vote for her most ilustrieus
living son, Henry Clay. Why should she not ?
There is not State in the Union which has u
deeper interest in the systematic Protection OF
Home Industry than she. Her mountains teen
with every mineral and give rise to innumerable
and now useless water powers. Her climate is
the finest in the world much of her soil the most
fertile; she can raise proftably greater variety
of staples-Wheat, Corn, Tobacco, Wool, Cattle,
&c.-than any other State in the Union Wash

trated by naWgable streams and Canals In every
direction, with one line of Railroad running
through her from North East to South West, and
the Baltimore and Ohio soon to open new and
expeditions route through her soil to the Great
West, it is incredible that Virginia should remain
in the background she now occupies, Socially, In
dustrially, Politically. She is silently preparing
to rid herself of the desolating curse of Slavery
her Eastern Counties, esteemed worn out by Slave
culture, are attracting immigrants from the Free
States, who buy lands within thirty miles Of
Washington and fifty of Baltimore for one-fith
of what the same would cost in this State or
New. England. But more: Manufactures are
rapidly extending and even now, Richmond, in
the heart of her Slave region, vies In manutac-
turing activity with Paterson or Providence;
while her Western half, containing majority Of
her Free People, is nearly free from the blight of
Human Bondage This great State, this generous
and high-minded People, must emerge from the
bog in which the spells Of such brilliant, good.

All Hall, Brooklyn! The Right SUSTAINED

We have heretofore stated, on apparently good
authority, that the application for Mandamus
AGAINST the las-year Loco-Foco officers of Brook
lyn, argued before the Supreme Court of this
State, had been denied among the recent dcci-
sions at Rochester. This, we are happy to say,
was not the fact. On the contrary, the Supreme
Court have granted the Mandamus, In an opinion
which sustains the Wings on every point. Sc the
gentlemen who have been keeping up a fire on
the Wing Members Of the Council for not uniting
to pay out money to the hold-over officers, have
the artillery turned against them. 1t is Loco
Focoism which has obstructed the Government
these six months and kept the laborer out of his
wages, tits desperate clutch on thepower which
it had lost by the votes of the People. Do you
