GREAT Loss OF LIFE BY SHIPwRECK.-A letter has been received at Boston from Captain Freeman, of the barque Falmouth, dated at Gibraltar, which says:
 "There were nineteen vessels, including two American ships, ashore in Gibraltar bay, twen- ty-five between Cadiz and Cape Trafalgar, and one hundred between Cape de Cat and Cadiz The number of lives lost was reported to be five hundred. Capt. Freeman'S vessel went ashore in Gibraltar bay, in the gale of the 8th ult., her keel was forced out, she was broken amdships, and would undoubtedly be condemn- ed She was from Venice, bound to New York. The barque Juniata, of Boston, was also strand ed in Gibraltar bay. She had been at Gbral- tar for some months making extensive repairs of damages received on the coast of Africa Another letter, dated Gibraltar, Jan. 16, states that an American harque, name unknown, was seen back of the Rocks, previous to the gale of the 9th, and is supposed to have foundered, and all hands pershed.

Honor to whom honor is due -
Amid the numberless claimants to the ii
tie of public benefactors, the united testi-
mony ofthousands awards the palm to the
proprietor of that celebrated remedy,
I" Rhodes Fever and Ague Cure" and
there is justice in the verdict, for no med
icine ever offered for the cure of Fever
and Ague and bilious disorders possesses
such intrinsic worth. Its power as re-
medal agent is equalled only by its eff
cacy as Preventive and its entire harm
lessness is established beyond question by
the certificate of the eminent New York
Chemist, DIR. James R. Chiffon. Con-
tanning neither Quinine, Mercury, Arsen-
ic. or any poisonous drugs, its action is
never followed by the debilitating results
which almost invariably ensue from the
use of those pernicious articles. By its
occasional use as preventive, all danger
from exposure to malarious influences is
entirely obviated, and if the disorder has
become seated, this is the only remedy
which can effect radical cure and induce
no disease as bad or worse than the origi-
nal disease.
A single trial will insure your perfect
confidence in its unequalled virtues.
