The HERMANN.-The details of the Hermann's
news published in the New York Papers which
came to hand yesterday, have lost all their interest
by the subsequent arrival Of the Europa. The tel
egraphic dispatch we gave some days ago contained
every item Of importance that was brought by the
Hermann. She brought IS second-class passen-
gers, 40 first-cIass passengers, and an extremely
valuable freight, comprising about 500 bales and
cases of merchandise, taken on board at Bremen,
8O7 of aces silks and other articles of French
fabric from Havre and about $50 packages of goods
put on board at Southampton also, quantity of
watches and jewelry, but no specie.
When the Hermann left Bremen, the steamship
Britannia had just arrived in the Weser from Liv
erpool, and the Acadia, which vessel had been got
off the Terchellings shoa, was daily expected.
