THE RUMORED WRECK OF THE UNITED
STATES SHIP LEVANT.

There is reason to fear that the United States sailing
soopof-war Levant has gone down with all hands on
board.
For the last four weeks apprehension of her lose has
been generally gaining currency in the Navy, and the
news received by the Department at Washington on
Friday to the effect that the cOmmandernchief OF the
Pacific Squadron had not ordered her TO nop at any In
termediate ports between Honolulu and Panama, has
removed the few hopes of her safety that existed She
had been cruising for time around the Sandwich
Islands showing the American flag occasionally at diff
fren seaboard cities and had sailed for the headquar
tiers of the Squadron Panama. to repenish her stores
and provisions when last heard FROM For over forty
DAYS the naval officers and sailors at the latter place
were rather anxious about her. and the California mail
some weeks since brought intelligence Of her probable
destination. So many i-founded rumors, however,
relative to the alleged wreck Of United States men-of-
war; of the Pawnee Seminole, Congress Niagara, &C.,
have from time TO time found their way into the news
papers, that we concluded to keep the matter quiet for
while. There is hardly any use in hiding it longer
The Leyant was sailing sloop-of-war Of the third
class ranking with the Yandsa, Cyane, and st. Louis
She was built at Brooklyn % years ago; 792 tuns
burden and carried twenty gu7s. She served the ooun.
try well in her time, having ciised actively on the
Home, African, East Indies, and Pacific squadrons.
Side by side with the San Jacinto she, during her last
commission threw her broadsdes into the Barrier Forts
on the Canton River, and good means Of captur
ing them. After her return from China abe was
thoroughly overtauled and repaired at Norfolk, from
which port she Eied over year ago for the Pacific
Ocean. The Levant was always considered good,
strong ship but never rated with fast sailers. Her
condition up to the date Of her departure from the Sand
witch Islands was reported to be good Whilethe Ian
caster going out from the Atlantic States, she was

the buying has been more earnest and confident

though somewhat cautious of late made efforts to

Railway Bonds however, there WIS a very good de-

the shore, " frightening the boys shoekingiy," and
Fastening them to terra fma. At the Unversallst

The week previous to the shock a new furnace was
placed in tie basement of the building which this

PROBABLE MURDER IN THE FOURTH WARD.-Last
evening two sailors named Peter Lynch and Danier
Sullivan got into an alteration concerning some odand
unsettled grudge at the sailor boarding heuse No. 81
Oak street, when the former stabbed his antagonist with
a sheah-knife inhicting a wound which IL likely to
prove fatal The difficulty which existed between the
two men was not of serious character; nevertheless
they always had words over the matter whenever they
met. Coming together in the house about o'clock
Lynch asked Sullivan for " chaw Of tobacco, when,
the latter handed his plug, and with it his sheath
knife, 80 that Lynch mghtcut what he wanted. Lynch
seized the knife and without further provocaon,
plunged the blade into Sullivans breast Officer Decker
of the Fourth Ward hearing the cry of murder that
WAS raised when Sullivan fell to the floor, fastened
to the spot and took Lynch in custody The injured
man received prompt medical attendance. Lynch was
locked up to await the result of his injuries
