Loss Of the PrODelIer Sea Chill.


The following account is given Of the loss of the
propeller Sea Gull, which cast away on Hum
boldt bar, on the 10Th January. A correspondent
OF the San Francisco Herald, in a communication,
dated Humboldt Bay, Feb. 4. 1852, says-The Sea
Gull was lost the morning of her arrival in the Bay
(Monday) while attempting to the bar. on the
way out The tide was ebb. after crossing the bar,
being struck by heavy sea, her steam chest and
pipe were broken. thereby rendering her unnanage
able. She then driven inside the bar. by two
successive seas. when the anchor was let go in five
fathoms water. she laid at anchor, pitching and
rolling most numerically, and shipping heavy seas.
Had the wind been from the proper quarter, or the
machinery III seryiceable order. the Sea Gull would
have been relieved from her embarrassing situation;
but. nO-her doom was sealed The chan-cable
parted. She, Of course, drifted on to the shoals,

and anxious that his passengers should not suffer,
Captain Iichenor Immediately headed the steamer
towards the beach, on which we all assembled,
viewing the awful scene, and awaiting the result;
and, setting her head sails, through false channel
approached the shore that boat could be
dispatched with lines, kedge, &c. by which means
she was soon brought to position on the land. that
enabled the passengers TO reach tern tana with
dry feet-a disappointed yet thankful company.
Too mneh praise cannot DC awarded to Captain
Tichenor for his GOODNESS and great presence Of
mind. well as his kind and gentemaniy conduct
towards those under his charge on this occasion.
The accident occurred from no fault or mismanage-
ment of his, but caused purely and undenably
by the engines being disabled at trying moment;
and sincerely trust, that upon proper explana-
ton of the circumstances the affair will be consider
ed in the right light The passengers of the Sea
Gull have presented Captain Tichenor with COM
pimcntary card, and voted him silver trumpet.

SUMPTION
Allow me to say that this gentleman has, for
more years than one, come within two or three
thousand bales of our entire crop Of cotton, for
the whole cotton producing region ns
His estimation for the crop OF 1851 is 2 260;-
900 bales, and though fraudulent spectators
started with 100000 bales, as you may re-
member, they are now down to 2, 6, and 100000
bales. If those gentry are sincere, and will put
themselves to the trouble of visiting Mobile or
Montgomery, they can have the prettiest oppor-
tuoity in the world Of making few thousand.
We will start at 100000 bales, and go up to
100000, adding thousand dollars on each
hundred thousand bales. Now, gents, back your
judgment, or hold your peace.
We rely upon you TO do us, of the cotton

was Its, 000---four hundred thousand bales
lessi My estimate that yesr was 100000
bales. Last year the big crop estimate was
100000 bales. These large estimates are old

been made upon this staple. will simply add,
in confirmation of my estimates, that the average
production Of the five years ending in 1s45, Of
the United States crop, was 2,1ls0C0 bales
The average Of the FIVE years ending with $780,
was 226l 900. The increase of the last over
