Mr.. David Jayne: s
Dear Sir-I have used your medicine,
(so universally known as Jayne's Expec-
torant) in my practice for a number oil
wears, and eau most truly say. that have
been more successful in the use Of that as
a mild, safe and thorough ExpectoranI,
than of any which have ever used. IL
is the best for the following obvious rea-
sons. 1t does not if given in proper do
ses, occasion a disagreeahle nausea. 1t
does no. weaken the lungs aud PROSTATE
The syslem, like most other Expectorants
in common use, nor does il abate the. ap.
petite of,the patient, like other nausenting
medicines, which have been used by the
faculty. Ip word it is nearly or quite
the thing which has been sought for BY
many of the faculty for ages gone BY.

Wreck nf mo Mann York

We have had a long conversation with Judge Toer,
who was one ot tho passengers ON the New York, and the
account no gave US of the wreck and OF the preservation Of
those who escaped death was extremely interesting. Tho
sppearaneo OF the Galveston certainly appears TO have boon
prosidenhal. Had she LEFT at her usual hour in the after
noon. she would have passed the scene OF the wreck in
the night and the chances are that she would not have dis
covered H. Happily she left Galveston in the forenoon, and
having herself felt something OF tho violence OF the gale aud
then noticed portions Of a wreck floating at intervals, every
body on board was on the lookout, and the survivors VI the
Now York deserted upon their various RATS formed of por-
tons OF the wreck, spars. &c. As fast as possible all were
rescued, Capt. Wright humanely exertins himself first to
save those whose support appeared most lrail. I~troquiros
but q moment TO write Of this. but IL was the work Of hours.
The passengers speak warmly OF the kindness and prudence
OF Capt. Wright. rs well as OF Capt. Symptom, a Galveston
pilot. who was on board.
The New York resisted the uncxsmpled violence OF the
gale much longer than could have been expected, and sank
very gradually. A little before she went down. the motion
OF the boat Us che fell over on her side, caused her bell to
strikea single stroke-the knell, as IL were, of the noble
ship. Capt. Phillips was calm and determined throughout
the dreadful scene. The passengers were appraised OF
their danger bo-umes, and the men amongst them Joined

execution OF tho orders Of the Captain. who awaited him.
sell OF every resource to keep his ship afoat. and save the
lives OF those on board when the crisis came. The scenes
IN the ladies' cabin were OF the most agonizing description,
but it is Idle 10 dwell upon Them.
IL il supposed that from 20 10 $40, 900 in gold, silver
and bank notes wer, los, IN the vessel. belonging in part to
passengers. but principally consigned here. There were
no goods in the hold OF the vessel. The Captain lost from
two TO three thousand which he had in cash on board,
Some drafts on the Post Office Department, for about the
same amount, wsre lost, but no other Inconvenience than
delay will result from this.

The gale Of last week was moro disastrous in IN. attach.
