the French steamer, Lyonnaise, from New
Sark. doiind for Ilnvcro, was run.into arsca on
ip night of the 2d inst., by the bai quo Adnat
, bound from Belfast, Mo., for Savannah,and
I badly iniur.d that slio was abandoned the
■xt day. She bad on board 40 passengers bo
des/her-crew; Sixteen persons from tire
earner were picked op in n boat subsequently
/ a Bremen vessel, two others having died.—
n thc.lOtb this vessel spoko the Uamburg
irque Elite, on board i f which fourteen of the
scued persons, were-put, and arrived at New
ork on FHday evening lust.
>Vo find in the New York papers copious tm
unta of the disaster. Besides the 10 persons
..liowcro saved by being picked up ip a boat,
dt seems that the captain ond some 40 persons
look a raft, which is btlicvcd to haw gone to
irtcccs. The reason for the 14 survivors being
lint back to New York by the Bremen barque
which picked them up, was that she was in
tfan-cr of being short of water. The steamer
*'«attSl from New York on the 30th of October,
■fend the vioHlslpn took place about 53 miles
northward of the light cn Nantucket Shoals,
i Next morning the steamer was found lo bo
I - State. A gale commenced, and all
■ hands and passengers left the vessel. The cap
tain bad ft raft made, and about 40 persons got
' bn it, but the survivors at New York believe
that It went lo nieces, nnd that many lives
Verc-losl. Severn! boats left the vessel, and on
'Tuesday. Nov. 4. iho one commanded by the
Second male, lost sight of the others, the wea-
Uicr. being very foggy. This was the boat
- \ncked up by the Bremen barque Eli.se, on Sun
afternoon, Nov. 0, after the persons in it
had been ejposid to sea for G days. * Three of
them were jmssengere, and the rest were the
second mate; second engineer, and sailors and
stokers. The whole mini her of persons on
hoard the steamer was 134, of whom 40 wore
gassengers. Sho also had on board about §20,-
00 in specie on freight.
The Lyonnnise, when last seen by those on
board the boat picked up, was still nlloat. with
her stern above the water’s edge and her bows
high out of water. The sufferings of the >nrtd
Were terrible, they having been exposed for six
days in the open boat. They encountered sev
feral severe nnow storms, nnd their limbs were
dreadfully frozen. Ttjcy are. however, wcurc
happy to slate, likely to recover.
At the time of th? collision, the night was
dark, and a strong wind blowing. The lights
•were up. and every precaution had been taken
bn board the steamer. The fog whistle was in
full operation at the time. The big whistle
was constructed at the Novelty Works, ex
pressly for the hyonnnise, nnd being n very
powerful one, could be heard for many miles.
The party in the boat had no bread or water,
no place to lay down, ami nothing lo eat but
rticat nnd preserves. There were, originally.
Itfpersorts on the hont. but two dud from
thirst, fatigue and cold, nnd were thrown over
lionrd. Tho steamer had five boats, of which
two were lifeboats. One of (Iks latter was
RWampcdm launching. The other contained
Iho rescued 10. One of the other boats swamp
ed also.
There arc three bonis now out. therefore—nil
manned by experienced officers: each of them
Ims n compass, anil all lime wiils—so ihm it is
i highly ,piohnhlc that the missing may yet Is.*
snvttl. The Lyonnnisc had five water-light
compartments, but when tho collision took
place the water rushed in at the stern u ith ir
resislablu force—breaking through tho Him
compartinent, ami then into the second, at the
Biimo tune, so that nil the steerage apparatus,
with the propeller, were swept away.

Among the passengers on board LhesUamer,
was Albert Stunner, brother of the Mnssnchus

lotriyg description of the loss of the steamer :
*'«fiist immediately nfler the passengers and
«|any of tho crew had retired, leaving (he

We did nil in our power In avoid n collision

with difficulty that the captain could calm the
fears of ihc passengers, and induce the crew to
hail the ship. He Unally succeeded m inusicr

passengers, who funned in bailing parlies, rig
’ a Cable in tho hold, and by this means was
enabled lo reach the water.

A ‘’FqM Boy'’ tin Hoops.
' We know of a good joke, .says the New Or
i Icons Picayune, about the way a precocious ur
chin cut into his Mamma's tchat-d'ye caU'om,
hih! robbed it of its hoops. It seems that Ut
ile Johnny and little Tommy wanted to have a
game at hoop rolling ; but where to get the
hoops was a difficulty. Mamma wouldn't lot
them run over to the hooper’s; what were they
to do? At last Johnny thought of n plan mid
whispered it to Tommy. Soul he. ‘•You Umm*
Mamma’s great rew thing, that >lic got at
Holmes’, and put Into nur room, because the
nnnojr wasn’t big enough to hold it?” “Yes,”
answered Tommy. “Well, sis'er Jane lold
mo it was fnllof hoops! Now. I’m gdlng to
lake my knife and cut \m out. Then we’ll
have plenty to piny wi»h.” “Oil yes! do It,
Johnny., AVon’t it by so nieo.”
So master Johnny forthwith went into his '
chamber, pulled down mninmn's •great new
thing.” and in a short lime had it divesttd of
its • fair proportions.” The young scamps
were laughing over their handiwork, when
mamma, who was just preparing to walk out
on a visit, and had proceeded Ihiut far in ma
king her toilette, came into the room for the
article aforesaid. At a glance she saw the
mischief that had been done, and with a shriek
fell fainting on the Door.
(loodness! gracious! lint were not the hoys
frightened ! In a twinkling they were nil as
fust As their heels could carry them. Where
they went to. we ran’: nay, (we don’t suppose
they knew theiurfelvee.) how long they stayed
haw long mamma was In recovering, we arc
nnnhlc to say. But we rather incline to the
belief that masters Jonimy and Tommy
••caught .scissors” at lust, and that it will be
some lime before they again cal such capers
with hoops.

A young married pair arrived in the city,
says the Albany Knickerbocker; yesterday
from Buffalo, whoso departure from that place
was attended with a scene whoso unpleasant
ness was aggravated by. its publicity. . The
bride is the daughter of a wealthy and aristo
erotic merchant of Buffalo, and one of the most
lovely and accomplished, women of. that city,
where loveliness and accomplishments seem
natural to their sex. The husband is a very
respectable young gentleman every way, save
in wealth, an equal to the lady. Tho marri
age being opposed by tho lady’s lather, was
privately solemnized by a clergymen yesterday
morning, and tho bridal party had just arrived
at tho r'kilroad depot to toko passage for New
York, when they were overtaken by the bro
ther of the bride, who did not know of their
marriage, and was led to believe that his.slster
had sacrificed herself. A rencontre ensued be
tween him and the husband, during which, ho,
(the brother) drew a pistol It was immedi
ately taken from him and fired in the air by
the 'groomsman, who was in attendance, and
the parties separated by him and another gen
tleman. 'The husband then claimed an expla
nation with the brother, exhibited the marriage
certificate, and once relieved his fears. The
brother then ran to the father who hastened
to the cars, read the certificate, and, after fret
ting a little, gave his blessing to the happy
pair, and got ashore just as lire last bell rung.

Lancaster Bank, was the refusal of the Phila

ters. The reckless conduct of the officers of
this institution, during the last year, prepared
a number of persons for this failure.
