Steamboat llIantfe.

Among the passengers, tt will be Fecollected
 was Dr. Hasler, who bad just returned in the U. S sloOp Ofwar Falmouth, after an abscence of near two years. Ofthat unfortunate gentle. man, we have the following affecting particu. lars from the New Brunswick Times. He ar. rived at BOstsn about week before the loss Ol the steamboat Atlantic, and notified his family in New Brunswick, that he would be with them on Thanksgiving Day. From that day ! his friends expected his arrival every moment. But disappointment awaited them. While the wife looked for her husband, the mother for the son, the sister for her brother, and the children for their father, the awful intelligence came that he is lOst-lost afterm enths of peril upon the stormy ocean, almost with in sight of those who had for weeks anticipated the hour when tEey could fly to his arms and receive his embraces.
 The melancholy news of his loss was commu- nicated to the family on Saturday evening by two gentleman of that city. When the door of the residence ef the deceaseds family was open. ed for their reception, one of the doctors little boys ran through the hall, crying aloud with joy" Pa has come pa has come !' May Heaven sustain and console the afflicted fam. fly! '..- r-.~a ..s r' -'t.'-
 Dr. Hasler graduated at Rutgers College in New Brunswick, and has always been highly esteemed by all who knew him. He was about 40 years of age, and has left a wife, widowed mother and four children, 10 mourn his loss.
 The report that the baggage of the unhappy passengers was robbed, is, we are sorry to say confirmed. It is not supposed that the foul work was done by any one residing on the Isl- land. The two smacks before alluded to, whose home YVES not cerianly known,a ,are suppo. sed to have contained the thieves Some ofthe carpet bags had evidently been tslashed open with knife. Goods have been saved from the wreck which have sold for 8sOOo The bell still tolls over the scene of desolation. That part of the wreck to which it is attached, hap pened to lodge in such position that the bell was supported out of the water, and at the mo. tion of every wave, strikes twice, and so, night and Gay, tolls on it's dreadful notes.
 The Atlantic is broken into three parts.- Soon after the stern struck the ground. quite section of it broke off, and drifted over ledge of rocks 10 considerable distance where it lies. The other portion broke as the bew wheeled in towards the shore, SO that the wheels and houses went on shore at a central point and the bow farther south.
 It is thought that the engine, which cost $50 O,0oO, may be saved, though possibly not till spring.

A GOOD STREAK OF LUCK.

A correspondent from Havana writes to our friends of La Patria, that the grand prize of the Royal Lottsry-ths $lOo, ,OOO- was drawn by 6ity negroes, most of them slaves. They had joined to buy three whole tickets, and gave one dollar each for that purpose.
 One of their tickets was the number 39y7 and on the morning ofthe 18th they found that each of them had won $2 ,OOO.
 This surely is enough to buy the slaves free. dom, as their regular value IS from $4O0 10 $75o and when they have the money and wish to buy their freedom, thsr masters are obliged to sell them.
