SHOCKING CALAMITY.-The New York papers
give the particulars Of the collision and loss of life
on the Long Island Sound, about two O'Clock on
Saturday morning, between the Fall River steam
er Metropolis and the New London and Norwich
propeller j. W. Harris, which resulted in the al
most instantaneous sinking Of the Harris carry
ing down with her fifty human beings, and car
90 Of assorted merchandise, valued at between
$50 ,Oc0 and $4,000
From the statements given il Is quite evident
that the steamer will have to bear a large burden
OF the blame attributable to the collision The
j. w Harris was valued at about Ss2 $50
After the collision the passengers of the Metrop.
lis, some two or three hundred in number formed
themselves into committee, and proceeded to
relieve the immediate suferings of such of the
wrecked passengers and crew as had been saved
and raised Si95, which was distributed among
them.
An invalid gentleman on the Metropolis, named
George Tappen, from New Bedford, Mass, on
his way South, with his wife, for his health, be-
came SO nervous and excited, in consequence OF
the accident, that he went into paralytic ft and
Immediately expired.

TENNESSEE.

How 1T WAS DONE.-Mr. w. r. G.. Webster.
the person to whom Costa RIGA has taken the
liberty of granting Nicaragua isthmus transit
route, has written to the New York Times a
long letter in explanation of certain personal
charges against himself. In the course of il.
after describing his exploit of wrestling from the
hlibuster Walker, the river and lake steamers.
OF which that individual deprived the rightful
owners, it will be remembered, he says
The result Of this success was further-the
possession by Costa Rica Of the Transit route to-
gether with the lake and river steamers-the lat
Ter ny the laws Of nations legal prizes of war
uIthef came as conquest, or, at least an event
Inilowlng, the concession to me of the exclusive
privileges OF the Transit, with the property thus
captured.'
SO it seems that Costa Rica's claim to the
transit route is now to be urged on the ground
Of conquest. 800
1t strikes us as being quite rs impudently
urged on that ground, as ever before She re-
took the property in question as the ally of
Nicaragua, and, according to this Mr.. Webster,
coolly appropriated it as her own, instead of
handing it over to the government of Nicaragua
with whom she was engaged in the war as an
ally, to be promptly restored to its owners.

{. The STOLEN CArrLE.-The rumor in this
mornings Baltimore Su,, saying that the
Cheyenne Indians had stolen SOC head Of cattle
on the way to Utah, to be used for the subsist-
.ence of U. s. troops there, is certainly correct
According to information that reached the Var
Department this morning, they were taken by
the Cheyennes not far west of Fort Kearney, as
they were being driven to Utah in advance Of
General Harney's army. They were under the
charge Of their owners drivers and hearders,
and were the property, not Of the Government,
but of army contractors, on whom the loss alone
falls. Their abstraction cannot affect the ne
cessary supply for the troops now on the way
to Utah; as sufficient number had gone ahead
in safety, to render it certain that there will be
plenty of beef there for the troops.

GEORGETOWN AFFAIRS.
CorYsspoNdeacs of The Star.

GRoReKrowN, August IL, 1857.
Our coal wharves this morning present an I'M
usual degree Of life and business activity. Since
our report Of Saturday ca boats have got In all of
them laden with coal, from Cumberland, EXCEPT
two. The whole number Of tons brought by these
is $3.50.
The coal docks are completely thronged with
persons, many of whom are idle spectators, drawn
thither, doubtless, by strike among the hands.
They have heretofore been receiving S1.25 per
day, and have struck for S1.50, The employers,
however, refused to pay the advance, conseq Mt
Of coal is concerned has come to a dead halt ex-
cept what little is being done by the boats crews
This state of affairs is greatly to be regretted,
from the fact that the canal is completely lined
with boats heavily laden with coal, all Of them
anxious to get off, most Of them having already
been from home at least a month.
At the river wharves there is quite feet Of
large schooncrs anxiously awaiting cargoes. At
the American Company's, Rays Dock, there are
three or four; and at the Borden Company's, are
the following Lucy Church, Wildn, awaiting
go tons, for Newark, N J.; Reindeer, Kinner,
go tons, for New York Isle of Pines, 80, for
Dighton, Moss and others.
The following vessels loaded at the last named
docks last week III. Beales, Johnson, 400 tons,
for Boston, and Coast Pilot, Brown, 400 tons, to
same place.
A valuable horse belonging to Mr.. p. T. Berry,
while engaged in hauling corn to the brig Andc-
yer on Saturday, backed overheard at the wharf
OF Huntiy Bro with the cart attached to him,
and was drowned.
Owing to the hardness Of the feed to this level
of the canal the water still lacks nearly foot Of
being at its usual height, consequently boats ex-
pcrence considerabled difficulty In getting in to the
whaTves.
The whole number of boats now engaged in the
transportation of coal upon the canal Is $50 capa
BILE ofcarrying over 81 500 tons. This numb will
doubtless be considerably increased before the
close OF the boating season, IL navigation shall
remain permanent. II %.
The first lot of new wheat -four reached our
city by the canal this morning, consigned to III =.
Sweeny, Esq Our mills have, however, been
turning out small quantities for several days past
Mr.. j. Dyer has commenced, on the corner Of
Gay and Congress streets, the erection Of a first
class brick dwelling for Dr. Snyder.
Old wheat -four is held at - 50 for standard
brands. Wheat-white and red 81 .iOaSl 60, but
little Offering, owing doubtless to the continue
ton Of wet weather. Some lots Of damp wheat
have sold low as al 20. SPEcrAToR
