end in 23 fathoms water, she deeftrled a sail on the
larboard bow, end Immediately put the helm Imrd
a port, stopped the engine, mid tricked hnrd. The
forward motion of the steamer was, howeVer, con
siderable, when she struck tlm Bowsprit of tho
strnngo vessel, turning her partly round, as it after-
wnrilappeared, prying open tier bows; for in less
than five minutes she went down, carrying with her
fifteen passengers and nine of the crew. She prov
ed to be tho bark Isaac Mend, from Now York for
Snvannuh, with 33 persons on board, and a valunnln
cargo. Before she went down, the Southerner had
backed clear of her, and, by lowering uud manning
tl■ roc of Francis' life boats, was enabled to save two
of the passengers and seven of the crew, as follows:

Although the effects of the collision were so fatal
the shuck Was by no means violent, hut the bowsprit
operated like a lever to pry open the bows. Hud it
been brittle enough to breuk pr >bubly no lives would
have been lost. When the bark was first seen from
tho steamer, she was steering. S. S. W., and the
Southerner N. N. E., the wind blowing strong from
the North with a sliarp sen. Unfortunately the .peo
ple on buHrd the bai k took the steamer for a vessel
standing in shore, and so put their helm o-starhonrd
in order to cross hcf. After picking up all the per
sons that could bo found, the Suutnetuer remained
neat tho scene uf the disuster until nllhupo of saving
any more had tied.
It was a sad buur indeed; and the veteran Captain
Berry felt it deeply, and still feels it to his heart's
core, although conscious of having done all that he
could to avoid the collieiup and mitigate its disasters.
HeSpeuks in tho highest terms of Francis'life boats,
without which not an individual from the bark would
have been saved, a9 the sea was so rough that a wood
en bout w ould have been stoven, either in lowering
or in coming along side. The first of the life boats
which Was lowered, was manned by tho second effi-
cer and two of the crew. She picked up seven of
nine survivors. The second wus manned by the first
ofiicer, two of tho crew, and Capt. Lubbock, mid
Cupt. J, O. Berry, who nobly volunteered their ser
vices. This is the.Capt. Berry whose vessel, the Ore
gon, of Somerset, Mass., foundered at sea on the 17th
vf last mohth,' in lat. 32,15 N. and Ion. 711,7 W
The damage to.tho Southerner by thecollision was
hut slight. Her cutwater, bob-slay ami Hying jib-
boom were carried away, together with the hand
rails. She had ulso some bad scratches on the bow.
She will, however, be able to icavo tor Charleston
this afternoon at tile usual hour, in good order mid
condition.—Journal of Commerce.

The steamer Cherokee arrived nt New-York cn Sat
urday morning, with $1,000,000 in gold dust. The
following is a summitry of her news;
At the departure of the Inst steamer the squatter
troubles in Sacrament;, were at their height, and the
intelligence will no doubt have produced in the U. S.
uluCh alarm and consternation. Wo arc happy in
being nhleto state thutthe disturbances almost whol
ly ceased after thetirst outbreak. The tir.-t accounts,
us is usually the case, somewhat exaggerated tho
miulber both of the killed lud of the combatants.
The squatters fled lfl ft short time after the Hi st dilli-
culty fii the streets. Funic of the ring-leaders were
arrested, and itfe now awaiting their trial in prison
A few days after tile tight in Sacramento, ahunlf .Mc
Kinney was killed in attempting to arrest a man nam
ed Alien, one nf the leaders of the squatter party.
Allen, though wounded in the affray, succeeded in
making his escape, anil is hoW in the Vicinity of Pin-
carvillo. Rumors prevail in Sacramento that a baud
ot some -1110 armed men are now in the vicinity of
Wcaversville, preparing to make a descent on Sac
ramento tor the uurpose of rescuing the prisoners.
The authorities, although not attaching much credit
to this story, have sent spies out in thatdirection.and
have redoubled their precautions. It is impossible
that any attempt will be made, however, as the de
monstration made by tho citiacus oi both Bacrnmento
and Ban Francisco on the occasion of- the outbreak,
must have convinced the infatuated men that suc
cessful resistance to the law is entirely hopeless.
The excitement agninst the foreigners in the south
ern mines has subsided, and the assassinations have
almost wholly censed. A large number of Chilians
and Mexicans have left the country in consequence
of the law compelling them to take out licenses to
mine, and business in the Ban Joaquin district has
suffered, in consequence; but nevertheless the
milling operations are still prosecuted with indus
try and sit-cess.
Tho emigrants continue to arrive in large num
bers, and for the most pin t in great destitution.

Arrival of the Stum-ship Florida.
The now and beautiful steamship Florida, Capt.
Lyon, arrived yesterday morning, about 9} o’clock,
from New- York,having mude the trip out in (iOhuurs.
During the passage she lust from 4 to 5 hours by the
heating of a portion of her machinery, un occurrence
which ulwuys takes place with the machinery oi
new steamers. She brought 185 ca in. and 87 steer
age passengers. A portion of tile time she was in
company with the steamship Southerner, from New
Y’ork for Charleston, and bout her ui tile rule of about
1) miles mi hour.
Early in tho morning she was seen coming up the
river in beautiful style, and her uppearance wus m- re
like that of a frigate than a steamship. A large con
course of persons hastened to the blurt to witness her
arrival, and she wus handsomely greeted by the va
rious vessels and steamers us she passed tu her
wharf. As she passed the steamer Ivanhoe, Captain
McNelty, just arrived from Fior ida.slie was greet
ed with the discharge of cannon which was respond
ed to by the Florida with a similar discharge. She
came up to her wharf in handsome stylo, with her
decks crowded with pusscnge.rs, many of wlium were
citizens of Buvannab.
- A list o her uliicers and a full description nt the
steamer has already been published in our paper,
uud wo deem it unnecessary to repeat them.
We uiulerstandlliut she bus a lull freight. A list
of her, passengeis tor which we are indebted to the
politeness of .Mr. Culver, clerk of the Florida,^will
be t'.Jod in another column.
The first trip of the Florida, has in every respec-
realized the expectations of our citizens and notwith
standing Iter detention alluded to above, has mad-
better timuby five hours, than the Cherokee did on
her first passage to this city.
At. four o’clock yesterday afternoon an extra train
left the Depot, conveying upwards of lot) passengers
for the Wast, who thus gain upwards of forty hours
ahead of uny other route.
J3?" Tho following Card was adopted unanimous,
ly, we believe, by the passengers on bourd the steam
ship Florida. The names are emitted here :
A CARD.
Tho passengers, one and all, on board tho steam
ship Florida, on her recent voyage from New-Y’ork
totliis port, cannot s-parnte without tendering to
Capt. Lyon, their cordiul acknowledgment for his
kind and considerate attention to their comfort and
safety during the passage, and they might add, if it
were not altogether superfluous in a community in
whicli lie is so well known, for the skill with which
the noble craft was navigated, which he so dest-rv.
edly commands.
OI the Florida herself, it might likewise seem su
perfluous to speak, coining us she dues out of the
ship yard of Messrs. Webb & Co., of NewYork.
those accomplished Naval Architects,and her vast im-
pelling power, constructed as it lias hern, at the well
known found ry of Messrs. Stillman, Allen Sl
Co. Our passage is the best commentary on both.
We left Sandy Hook on Saturday evening at a quar
ter past 7 o'clock 1’. M., and took our pilot off Tyboe
at half past 7 A. M. Tuesday morning, muking our
run *n tbe astonishingly short time of (JO hours. It is
to be remembered that iu consequence of Iho heating
of the crank pill,from the newness of the machinery,
we were compelled to stop frequently to cool down,
whicli must have prolonged her passage some 3 or
4 hours—whilst with a wise regard to the safety of
the vessel, her careful and skilful engineers carried
less than half the steam that the boilers cun with on
tiro security sustain.
The interior arrangements of tbe Boat in the two
well ventilated and well 1 ghted superb saloons and
commodious state-rooms, combine finished taste
with excellent judgement, while her abundant an,l
choice table, equal in all respects to the best Hotel
on shore, bespoke both the liberality and intention
of thoir Chief Stewarts.
In conclusion, in one word we may congratulate
the citizens of Savannah, in Jiavi ng rmining to their
port one of the finest and m“t finished steamers of
her class in the world, which with the buoyancy of
the Sen Gull on the wave, ulir.ost rivals her veloci
ty of wing.

gratification last night of devouring a plate of New-
Yorkers, passengers out in the Florida, which were

umn,it will be seen that Mr. D. is prepared to furnish
them at his establishment, and to supply families.

Tho infamous “Ned Buntline” (E. Z. C. Judson)

The split in the whig party is not expected to bon
very serious one; the minority, who left the origi

which the majority sought to identify them, Will be
repudiated.
The weather is extremely cold, ntid fires nnd over

Bummer is past, and "autumn’s fallingleat proclaims”

The New Oi lcan - papers received last evening, have
Galveston dates to the 27th ult.
A public meeting was in Id at Ban Augustine, on
the 7th u.t., to act upon n resolution offered ntn
previous meeting, approving of the act of the Texas
Senators in voting tor the Peauce bill. After con
siderable discussion, a series of resolutions was ot-
fciod as a substitute. One oi these resolutions cdi-
demn the Pearce bill—another declared that the
buuiM.ary ot Texas as declared by the law of 1830*
must be respected—another that fora valuable consid
eration the people of Texas might di-pose of their
territory north ot 34 deg. 09 see.—that south of that
line it might be conquered, but never purchased—
auulher ot the resolutions declares thnt il the late
message ot Mr. Fillm.ire was intended to intimate,
il has failed of its object—another declares a strmic
attachment to this. Union but a stronger attachment to
the State of Texas. The question wus upon die a-
doption of these resolutions as a suhstitute for the
resolution approving of the vote of our Senators on
tile Pearce bill. “When the motion was put," says
the San Augustine Herald, ‘u division was culled for,
ami the substitute received and adopted a large

that tlie suhstitute was i .(opted, an entlniMustic out
