Loss Of tie Solloay Mail Stearer.-This
vessel belongs to to the West India Steam
| packet company was lost Off the coast OF
Spain on the 9Th u!t. and tbirty-shras IhT 'aesss
| lost.
After having lef Corona about cou-
| pie OF hours all the passengers and mostof
! the crew VIA the exception Of those on du-
! ty) being IN their berths asleep, the vessel
struck Ga a rocky shoal, called the Ba!da-
| yo, ullhin mile and half from the coast
.a@d Notwithstanding the utmost exertioas
) were used, the unfortunate vessel sunk
within 20 minutes. in l3 fa,homs.
By the order Of Captain Duncan. who
was lost the pnnace was first got into the
water. and as many as it could convenient
" hold were lowered into it, but the Frai
bark was rot destined to reach the shore.
From some caused unexplained, it was
capszed and every soul on boa I'd perished'
The first battle boat was then lowered, and
into that also as many crowded as possibly
could, and notwithstanding there was no
oar to assist them, it managed to reach the
shore il safety for padding &c. 1t is sup
posed that many went down with the YES
sci, there being no tine 10 launch the other
Beat that is KEEP. on the paddle-wheel, to
save those unfortunate beings left on
board.
Immediately on the vessel striking, she
pitched considerably head foremost, as soon
as the cold water reached the boilers they
collapsed and blew up. 1t is supposed that
many Of our fellow creatures persisted by
this mishap. and that it also lurthered the
more speedy destruction Of the vessel. The
size Of the paddle boats; boats kept ex-
pressIy for expressly for cases of accident;
may be Judged from the fact, that fifty two
human beings escaped in one of them, and
so close was 1t to the waters edge. that it
was a mercy that it reached the shore in
saCey Nothing but constant bailing and
good management kept her ahort. The
