m,.1.., srpnm,r hungarian.

The serow stoamship Hungarian, Opt. Jones,
sailed from Liverpool on the sth Of February,
touched at Queenstown, ireland, and LEFT on
the 9th for Portland She struck during gale
on the Horse Rake, about two miles of Cape
sable, and l2 miles from Darlington Her
light was seen from the main land about 3
O'Clock the morning Of the Goth, and at day
light one mast was standing. Men Werc seen
on il when the mast went over, which was
soon after daylight. UptO the Gath no one
had been able TO reach the wreck owing to the
storm. Two bodies, and portions Of the mails
and cargo had come on shore. The loss Of
every person on board is nearly certain.
The English papers by the Europa say the
Hungarian had large cargo and about S5
passengers No list of passengers has yet
come to hand It is supposed that Messrs
Merritt, MeKellar, Dawson and Talbot, msm-
bsru of the Canadian Parliament, were on
board. Mr. Wilson, buyer for Msssrs. Noffatt.
Murray & Co., Mr.. Charlesworth. Mr.. Henry
Fowler, Mr.. Sampson. buyer of John NoDOn-
aid d Co., and Mr. Watson Taylor, Of Toronto,
it is feared were passengers, though the Globe
thinks the probabilities are the other way. It
is reported that number of Montreal mer-
chants were on board, and much anxiety is felt
at Hamilton on account of some of the residents
OF that city.
The loss of life by the wreck Of the Hun
gaTian must be appalling. Her crew and
stewards numbered IIOmen, and she had space
for $50 cabin and 800 stesrage pasSsngerS.-
The Portland steamers generally come out full
and the cabin passengers probably make out
the IS. Some accounts Tplace the number Of
persons on board as high as 400 The latest
despatch, however, indicates less number.
The Hungarian was one of seven vessels
owned by the Montreal Ocean Nail Steamship
company, running in connection with the
Grand Trunk Railway of Canada. It was hel
third trip from Liverpool to Portland, the pre-
ceding having been accomplished in good time
and under very fsyeyabl0 circumstances. The
Hungarian was S3Eiful vessel of her class
$40 feet in length, 1880 tons burden, and pro-
PEELED 5y doubls'engines of $50 horse power
Her wreck makes the fourteenth steamship
which has been lost since the commencement

AdiOurumsnt-An Adjourned Session.
The Joint resolution to adjourn on the 18th
of next month, was amended in the Senate, by
a provision for an adjourned session to meet On
the lst Monday in January, 1861, and in that
shape came back to the House yesterday. The
House rejected the amendment, and motion
to reconsider the vote of rejection was laid on
the table for further consideration. The feel
ing throughout the State is decidedly against
the project Ofsn adjourned session, five may
Judge by the tone of our exchanges and BY the
expressions of the Republican county conven-
tiona, which have been held during the past
Week.-StGte Journal, 18th.
The following is the vote in the Senate
adopting the resolution to adjourn on the l2'h

geld, Glass, Harrison, Harsh, Holmes, Jones,
Newman. Orr, Psrrill, Sprague, White-l5.
Absent-F Foster, Ready, Schleich.
The yeas were all Republicans except Mr..
Key, of Hamilton. Messrs. Brewer, Cox, Gar
field, Glass, Harrison, Harsh, Jones and
Sprague, Republicans, voted nay.
What the next vaciIation will be remains to
be seen. In the meantime the people can
digest q few facts as to the length and the cost
of adjourned sessions The session of 1856
commenced Jan. 9TH and continued to April
Ilih, 95 days. Cost s72,O72 The adjourned
session commenced Jan. 9th, 1857, and contin

what a sagaciOus Veteran Says.

ThurlOw Weed, the long time editor Of the
Albany Evening Journal, and one Of the best
posted and sagacious of politicians, in a late
article says of the Republican Presidential nom
nation:
"With the advantage of good many years
experience, we are quite unable to form, al
this time, any opinion as to whom we should
nominate for President. The policy and ae>
ton of our Convention is not unlikely to be af
fected by that Of our opponents. Other con
ditions and circumstances may occur to render
what may appear wise now, wholly inexpedieni
when our Convention assemblies Hence we
have preferred to leave our Convention unem.
barrsssed, either by premature cOmmittals OF
discussions, to act upon its convictions and
Judgment, with all the evidence before it, when
a Standard Bearer is to be chosen"

MAD STONE REMEDY,-There are people in
this country who believe in the efficacy of the
application of what is called the maidstone to
the bite of mad dog. The Cincinnati Gazette
of Saturdays says.
Mr.. William Reeder, Of MiIlcreek township,
who was bitten by dog some days ago. in
formed US yesterday, that a dog of his, which
was attacked the same night by the rabid dog,
exhibited signs of hydroPhObia on Wednesday,
and by the following day became so bad as to
compel him to shoot It. He informed US, also,
that he had felt no uneasiness, and feels con.
vinced of the efficacy of the application of the
maidstone" The stone, when applied TO his
hand, adhered to it for several hours, when it
dropped off, and only on one occasion since, and
that for few moments, has it done the same
thing. In the case of his son, who was also
bitten, the result was the same, with the e1cep.
ton that on a subsequent application it refused
to adhere to the hand. The stone is white, and
Of an irregular shape. l-.

Nr,z Ynrk nh RIght.

The town meetings in New York usually
show pretty cOnclusively how the political tide
runs in that State, for very few are no party
or 60 by default. The Albany Journal keeps
a close tally Of results for Supervisors in the
various counties, and in late number remarks
that the prepOnderancs of Republican suPervi-
sors was so overwhelming last year, that we
dared hardly hope for equally favorable results
now. But, thus far, there are gains even upon
last year

Tribune says:
How can the favor be described, where,
stable, sewer, slaughter house, brewery, glue
mandatory and the gas wOrks-all lent their
aid and bore part. All too manifest was it
that under the influence Of the south winds
was driven the wash Of our great city out of

back upon US through the mains and water
pipes. "

] CO., The Moslems are a mixed race eet'ssu
from the people Of the Greek Empire, at the
time Of the Mahommed. In the nominatty Cnrls
tian scots, there is the same blending OF races
and a large infusion Of European blood, during
the times of the Crusades. Dr. Thompson thinks
that the Marouites are the defendants OF the
ancient Syriaus, but the Nusairiyeh soy they
are the "miserable debris Of the -accuraed "a
naauites." But this theory does not comport witn
that of DR.. Alexander Fl. Stephens, OF Georgia.
for they are not black.
The Metawalies, class of dirty Arabs, VINO
Joined the Druses in their late crusade agalns,
the Christians, are very much like the jews, anu
claim to have come from Persia. There ls'a
large infusion of Egyptian blood in the Mosiems
from Carmel southwark. Dr.. Thompson THINKS
that their peculiarities are to be traced back 70
the old Philistines, who according to his theory,
came from Egypt, and not from Cyprus, as y
commonly thought. He finds traces IN lebanon
of the original Phoeniciaus. - x
In fine, the people Of Syria answer completely
to the prophecies respecting them-they are "a
people divided, meted out and trodden down"
: The facts will explain the ferocity Of the Dru-
ses, and the sympathy Of the Moslems with them.
And their antipathes to all other races will con-
tiuue 50 lcng as Moslem authority continues 10
that i'll -fated land. When Mehemet Ali declared
himself Independent of the Porte, and subjuga'
ted Syria to his yoke, all was peace in that land
and had he been left in possession BY the ,Enro'
pesn powers, his dynasty would have made
homogeneous people out-of these divided tribes,
long ere this. It is to be- hoped France and
England will make haste to bring light out of the
present darkness. Their joint word can put an
end forever to the disgraceful civil war now pre-
yailing,in SYria.-Baltimore Patriot.
