SINKING OF THE CARoNDELET.
ST.. LOUIS, Jan. N.-To Jackson Il
Manson Carondelct sunk few miles
below here In nine feet OF water.
There is no doubt but that the above
dispatch Is correct. but how the Caron-
delet could have sunk Is ut present q
mystery to us we can only conjecture,
md after scratching the nine remaining
hairs that our better half has left In our
scalp, we have come to the conclusion
that her bottom must have dropped out.
The Carondelct left this port on the
18th inst. with nearly 1000 tons Of freight,
consisting principally Of 900 hhds and
1000 boxes Of sugar and 1000 sacks salt.
Seriously speaking, we can form no idea
ns to what could have caused this dis
aster; to us 1t is inexplicablc.
