breakers, was split to pieces and became y
total wreck. Between thirty and forty OF
the passengers ara reported lost. The scene
is described as. being frightfnlly Horrible

as acting nQst nobly in their efforts to save
their comrades

probably before some Of its ill-iatcd pas

The United States frigate Congress, sunk

raised on Thursday last Tho remains of
the wreck are useless excepting the great

From our latest Northern exchanges we
extract the following paragraphs
The views expressed in my last letter, in
regard 10 ihe probable course of the Ad-
ministration in reference TO the Monroe
Doctrine, have received. additional confirm
alton by events that have irauspircd here
within day or two. There are movements
on foot, which, if they are npt interfcred
with by the Government, will certainly af-
ford powerful aid to tho Republican cause
in Mexico The President has avoided any
public expression of his views on the sub
ject, but those who arc intimate with him,
and who favor the re-establishment Of the
principle Of the Monroe Doctrine, do not
apprchcnd any opposition on the part Of
4 the Government, In truth, Mazimillian's
seat on his lIexican throne yas never SO
insecure as il is at this moment. There is
rcaeon 10 believe that by the TING Congress
meets in December, events IN Mexico Will
have reached such a-compleNion as 10 war
rant in the Presidents message, plain
declaration that the ,Gayornment docs not
intend to abandon; the Monroe Doctrinc-
perhaps even an intcntion 10 enforce it.
The Developments which have come to
light within the last-day or two !. in regard
to the absolute innocence Of Mrs. Surratt,
are absolutely appalling. Whatever mayi be
said of The other three, it is nowa as clear as
MONDAY that Mrs. Surratt, had. sho been
allowed the four days she asked, could have
proved her entire innocence. The princi-
pal witness against her has acknowledged
that his testimony was false; Payne pro
tested her innocence. With his dying breath;
and the poor woman herself the instant be-
fore her soul passed into the presence Of
her Maker, declared u am innocent|
