DISASTROUS sHIPwRECK.
Loss of the Powhatan!
TUo Hundred and Fifty Lives Lost!

In the New York Herald, Of the 2lst, we
find full particulars of the terrible catastro-
phes which attended the late storm on the
Atlantic coast, resulting in a loss Of tpo
hundred and fifty lires. The details of the
suieringS and hardships Of the passengers
on the Powhatan, before they were over
whemed by a watery death, are enough 10
make the stontest heart quail, and the cheek
blanch with horror.
The Powhatan left Havre for New York
on the lst, laden with passengers. While
struggling against the furious storm, twelve
miles below Barnegat, she was driven among
The Shoals, where she remained exposed TO
the furious assaults of wind and waves, I'M
til she went TO pieces, at five o'clock on last
Sunday week. The situation in which the
ship lay on striking, precuded the possibi-
ity of escape by the passengers, who were
compelled to stare certain and frightul
death in The face for twenty-iour hours, be-
fore they went down forever. During the
long night Of Saturday and the whole Of Sum
day, the unfurtunates--it is supposed some
two hundred and fifty in nunber-were
seen clinging to the eeward bulwarks OF the
ship, with the sea continually washing over
them, and expecting death at every succee-
ding wave.
Between four and five clock on Sunday
afternoon the ships bulwarks burst, and
obout fifty persons, at the same moment,
were washed overheard.
About five o'clock the vessel was COM
pIetcIy broken up; most Of her passengers
and crew were drowned, but few still sur
vivcd, cIingng TO pieces o!the wreck. TIE
shrieGs of the dying rose even above the
roaring Of the storm, which seemed 10 be in
crea>ing rather than >uhsiding in fury
Il was nj this moment that a huge wave was
noticed rolling inwards-the dead and The
dying were alike euguIiei within it-and
when |, had passed over them, there was moi
one left alive Of those passengers and crew
Of the ll.iated Powhatau, who numbered
two hundred and fifty souls that same NOR

Adulteration Of LIQUORS.

Eminent chemists assert that nine.tenths,
at least, Of all the liquors consumed in the
United States are more or less drugged.-
To say that half of all that prCtends 10 come
across the Atlantic is wholly manufactured
on this side of it, would be to fall short Of
the truth,
There are numbers who live and thrive
by such neiarious trade. Long practice in
the use of sugar of lead, cnpsicum, acidi
aloes, juniper berries, ver}igris, loPwood.
&c., &c.. in varying and nicely graduated
proportions, has enabled th,m 10 bring the
art 10 degree Of perfection that seems al
most fabulous. Cheap Monongahela whis-
ky brought into their vaults by the hogs
head, comes ont bottled and ready for sale
as "Maderia,' "Cognac," "Campaigne,"
"Pnle Brandy" Cream Of the Valley"
and odd Port" IN these the color, flavor,
and smell Of the originals will be SO closely
initiated that experienced taste is deceived
by them. So complete and minnie are their
operations that not only are foreign brands
forged, and the shape Of bottles. the devices
Of seals and corks inflated. but even ari-
fcial dust and cobwebs are fabricated to
give them an air of respectable antiquity.
II other proof Of this were needed, be-
sides the results Of chemical analysis, it
might be found in the facts that more Port
i drank in the United States in one year
than passes through the Custom House in
te'r; ,ha, more Champagne is consumed in
America alone than the whole Ch;mpaigne
district produces; the Cograc brandy costs
four times as much in France. where il is
made, as it is sold for in cur corner Grogge-
/ ries, and that the failure Of The whole crane
crop in maderin, produced no op.a cnI di-
minution in the quantity, nor at all cores
pending increase in the price Of wine.
il, is these compounds that madden ond
destroy such mu!iitudes in our towns and
cities. In wine growing countries. where
wine is cheap and plentiful, aid It's use a.
most universal, there are none Of these hor-
rors Of intemperance that shock and alarm
us here. France, Italy and Spain suffer no
more from the u,e Of their wines, than we
DO from our cider, or "sparkling Catawba." -"
\ law providing for the prohibition and
punishment ofthrse aduteratons could be
faithfully carried into effect. for MI parties
would have common interest in lis enforce
mcnt. Il could be resisted by few, for no
man wants to drink these poisons, and no
dealer would acknowledge that he sold them.
Temperance men would gain their end Of
driving these beverages out OF use, and all
respectable liquor merchants would profit
by the rise in prices. Constitutional rights
would not be more infrneed than by the de-
lection and punishment Of any other fraud;
md 10 property would be destroyed except
the liquid poisons and the implements OF
Dheir manuraclure.--T Alb, Jour.

A Commission appointed TO inquire il to the
expediency of abolshing slavery in Vene,
zu'a, have reported in It's favor, that slave
ry be instantly abolished, and the owners ol
slaves be paid their value by the govern
ment. There are no slaves under 80 years
Of age, however, in Venezna, all children
Of slave mothers, born since the year 1921
were decrced To be freed by Bolivar, 10
serve as apprentices until they were 2l
years of age. The report will be adopted
and the enlranchisement, il is said, will
greatly strengthen the power Of Monagas
as every slave will be entitled 10 cast hi,
vote, and will all vote 10 sustain the gov
ernment which gives them freedom.
