gether again, except tho carpenter, wlio, poor fellow, having jumped from tlie wreck for onr boat* andmissed it, was swallowed up in the vortex. It was then 'decided that we alioold ran for this place, (Owen's Sound,) and suffice it to say, i that after the most dangerous runs from point to point of the coast—having weathered even a heavier gale than that in which the ill-falcd steamer went down—but feeling that we might ns well perish by water as starvation—thc waves washed over us constantly, and we never had a dry thread on us—we reached this place last (Saturday) night at 8 P. 31., npt having lasted food in'that time. Captain Frazer reached hero with his boat's crew at 3 this morning; we Lad not seen them after the first day—my position you may imagine, but I will not attempt to describe.

How Guns arc Spiked. A correspondent of the London Herald describes how the Russians spiko the guns ■ —"The spikes are about four inches long, and of the dimensions of a tobacco-pipe; the head Hat; a barb at the point acts as a spring, which is naturally pressed to the shaft upon being forced into the touch-hole. Upon reaching the chamber of the gun it resumes its position, and it is impossible to withdraw it. It can only be got out by drilling—no easy task as they are made of the hardest steel, and being also loose in the touch-hole, there is much difiiculty in making a drill bite as ‘effectually as it should do. Its application is the work of a moment—a single tap on the flat head with the palm of the hand sufllcing.”

The Elements Against Hie Allies. Tlie London Tims, received by the Washington pronounces the storm on the Black Sea of Nov. 13 as the worst of the many and great losses sustained by the Anglo-French expedition in the East. The total loss of life exceeded one .thousand persons, The French lost Henry IV, a noble three-decker and favorite war steamer. The Prince, a magnificent new English screw steamer of 2,700 tons, carried ont to Balahlava the 4Gth Regiment, nil the winter clothing for the troops engaged in the siege, including 40,000 greatcoats, flannel suits, underclothing sacks and gloves; beef, pork and other provisions; hospital stores for Scutari, and a vast qnaatitv of shot and shell to cany on the seige. These arc wholly lost, and nothing remains of the Prince but half ft dozen of her numerous. crew, who managed to get on the cliffs when she was ‘{broken to powderi’ againsttbem.

Disaster on Lake Michigan. WRECK OF THE WESTMORELAND — STATEMENT OP A PASSENGER. We left Goderich on Monday, 27tlx; during this night a terrible gale come on, and we sprung aleak; ,everything that could he got at was thrown overboard to lighten her, hut the water continued to gain on lie; at daylight.it had out the hies, thus: stopping tho working of. t lie engines; tho rudder hadbecome disabled, and Nve wcro completely at the mercy of tho waves. At . 2 P. M., wo could see land from the mast-head,apparently about 20 miles distant, and we were drifting towards it at the rate of abont a mile an hourr - At ten minutes to 3; P. 31. (when wo had hoped she could he kept afioat at .least eight hoare longer by means of ■ the pumps) the carpenter rushed up and reported, that she could not possibly float five minutes longer. There were 2(1 souls on board, including three passengers and myself. .There were only two smrll jolly boats to save as. A rush was made,for them, when Captain Frazer (son of tho late Col. McKenzie Frazer) produced, a brace of pistols, and cocking them, Uireatcned to shoot down the first man. that attempted to get into cither of the boats until ordered todoso; this had the desired, effect. . I was assisted to the mate’s boat with fifteen others; the Captain took nine with him; the latter boat was launch: cd without much difficulty, hut ours, getting foul of the tackle,;could not be let go, and the mate with wonderful presence of mind; grisped an axe, which fortudately was lying dose by him, and ■ com racnccd cutting the four parts of the rope, and as he had severed the lost, the part to which it was attached disappeared below water, and down went the boat with such a crash that, in that fearful gale, it might have been heard two miles off. . Tho "five minutes”, in which to make our preparations to leave the wreck, had hardly expired, when the steamer was rapidly sinking in 70 fathoms of water.— Already we had hod two fearful' Scapes, for if the last stroke of the axe had failed to do its duty, wo must all have gone down within fire seconds; and second, if the promenado deck had not parted bodily from the. htdl, and that prevented suction, both boats must have been drawn into the vortex. ~ And now our danger was apparently,as greatas ever, for before we lefi the wreck, tho captain and mate had come, to the conclusion that tho small boats could not live ton minutes in so heavy a sea—the waves rolling mountain high, and wo- having at-least fifteen mites to go to roach the shore. I pulled one of tho only two oars in the boat—we of coarse headed for the shore, and I am at a loss for words to describe the tearful passage in—almost every wave would have filled the boat, but three buckets having been thrown into her, the men were enabled to hail her out at intervals between tho coming of the waves, which were.so large that about half a minute would elapse between them. . About 10, P. M. got; among tremendous'breakers,’ which advised ns of our proximity to the shore; to the surprise of all wo got safely thro’ them, and within a minute afterwards we pass?d close to the point of Cape Hurd —a most fearful iron bound coast, and, to our unspeakable joy, a bay of calm water.- If we bad touched there even one hundred yards further down than we did, we should have been dashed against the rocks, and inevitably lost; and that dangerous coast lasts about one hundred miles; hut it was the will of the Almighty that wc should land on the only spot of all that coast where we could possibly save ourtelves, and that in tho dark. At! hands felt thankful.

Prohibition in France.

Owing to the high price of food, bearing with a peculiar oppression upon tho poor, tho Emperor of France has issued a decree, forbidding the distillation of grain, till this prohibition shall be removed. This is sensible—and still more sensible would it be to make the prohibition permanent, except so far as alcohol may bo needed for other than drinking purposes, The example of tho French Emperor is, in this instance, worthy of the imitation of American republicans. The distillation of what God designed for food to man, into fiery poisons, that taint his blood, inflame his passions and dethrone reason, is always a wickedness; hut at a time like this, when thousands aro.hattlcing almost hopelessly with starvation, and can With difficulty make their daily labor supply their daily bread, it takes to. itself an added flagitiousncss, and becomes' a crime against God ami humanity.-;

He has bcen'an indifferent spectator of politics in tlicUnited States so.long now, that all his old preju? dices and antipathies seemed to have exhaled. He will not be home until next year.

White Golden Flint Wheat. A sample of this. superior wheat was exhibited by William Stavcly, Esq. at the recent fair in Bucks county, and attracted unusual attention and commendation. The grains were about twice the size of the ordinary white wheat, round and plump; while the color was about the same as the'old, and with millers, a favorite variety. Mr. Stavely informs us that he sowed two bushels on an acre last fall, which produced about twenty-five bushels last harvest, 'Die ground upon which it grew, he docs not think it the best, and is of opinion that it would have produced about the same amonntof Mediterranean wheat.

We made afire, and our all, namely, our clothes, in which we had been drenched to the skin, wo allowed to dry upon us. .

With many a wrinkle where The rose and lily once had bloomed When life’s young morn was there; And often from her dim old eyes Methougbt there fell a tear Upon her knitting work, that told Of memories fond and dear. And oft her bosom heaved a sigh. As from the open door She watched the little ones at play, As she bad played of yore. She knew that cankering cares would come To «peil ibe.castlcs fair , . Their little hearts were building high,, . For they wore built iu air. ; • She hod been young—and children dear. She called her own; had crept. Behind herchair to "hide and seek,”— No wonder that she wept;. For they were dead and these brought back Toe memory of theirtone, And drew those tears to bathe the flowers In raemory'sgatden enwn.
