itl;:the following protest, drawn up by the mate of
the lost vessel for presentation to the owners, brief
, Iv and fully "narratesthe particulars of the painful
'• trent :
On the_Bth of October last past, the ship Ste
phen Whitney left the .port - of New York, bound
for Liverpool Nothing, material occured on the
p a ssa.e until Wednesday, the 10th day of Novent-
Air last, on which day, on or about two o'clock in
cue afternoon, the ship , was hove to, and soundings
were had in fifty fathoms. The weather was par
:leularly thick, and the, wind blowing very, bard.
The ship was under donble-Teefed topsails. At 6
o'clock, P. M., the wind increasing the sails were
dose reefed 1 , at 8 o'clock, P. M., made, the land
'ery close to the ship.
After clawing off from the land, saw a fixed
white light, which, on consulting with the captain,
I took for the light at the Old Header-Kinsale; haul
ed off the ship on the starboard tack, heading south
east by south: At 9 o'clock,kosidering we had
Aitlicient offing,. steered the Olumnel course, east
ly south, and at a quarter to 10 the land was made
Ahead. the helm was put a port, and on coming
round, owing to the heavy sea then running; the
..,;„ went ashore. In a few minutes, out or tithe
dred and ten human beings, passengers and
• crew, ninety-one perished, among whom were the
captain and seconcimiate. The persons who were
•avetticket .alt their property, and were loft nearly
:lake& Every exertion was made, but owin. , e to
:he wild cliff on which the vessel struck, and the
darkness of the night, it , was impossible tti' make
any effort to save any part of the ship or cargo.?
This document was si.,,, , medby the mate, two of
the crew, and John Limerick, Esq., a local magis
trate.
A reporter from one of the Cork papers 'visited
ere scene of the shipwreck, and thus describes what
took place previous tolhe melancholy occurrence.
To this fatal error, which supposed the light on
Rock Island, near Crookhaven, to be that of the
old H ea d, the disastrous results that ensued would
appear to be, in a considerable, attributable. The
light on Rock island, as I have been irtformed,ltas
ttett but very recently erected ; and, from all that
I multi ascertain, the responsible persons on board
kipeared to be ignorant of its existence. Wheal:
et such ignorance involved a culpable neglect, will
probably be a matter for future investigation.
The Anil was again hauled off the land, and be
trying she had sufficient offing, a course wassteer
ed in•relation to the supposed position of the Old
Head, which, under the circumstances, was sup
posed to be..the correct sine. They kept on in this
course until a quarter to 10 O'clock, when the land
was signaled immediately-ahead, and orders were
promptly given to bring her round ; but the tremen
dous surf which beat upon the rocks issued a steril
e; gpmmand, and it was evident thelll-fated ship
was doomed. A brief moment only ensued, and
one terrific crash followed, which instantly consign
ed numbers to eternity. This single encounter stove
at the entire side of the sestet; and in less than
'aalf an hour there were not two planks together,
nor a single article of any description that could af
ford the means of escape to either passenger et
tailor. • -
Unlike the greater number of these disastrous
creunences, where a respite of even a fed! hours
atrunis the unhappy sufferers some-means of 'Pro-
Debility of escape, the victims on this occasion were
Instantly hurled into • eternity, without a moment's
ilo.L - ght or preparation. In Fess than ten minutes,
qui ;alone hundred and ten human beings, full of
i,le and .hope, enjoying the glad anticipation of
meeting friends, relatives and homes, ninety-two
had ceased to exist
Through the mercy of Providence, eighteen in
r'ivicluals were rescued from the destruction which
•• - erwhefined their associates—and, in many in
sances, their escape was effected with little assist
` nice from their own strength or aCtivity. Such was
ttne' suddenness of the calamity — su ch the fearft4
!avec which a few -minutes created—that almost
I `lion..beard were stupified with horror and amaze
( merit.; and rendered totally inactive by the appaling
L;tastrophe.
The survivors, bruised and naked, without shoe
"stocking, jacket or waistcoat, scrambled WO the,
mck:which overhung the sea to the height of near,
•• sixty, feet,- and, after 'searching about forsome
'sae, arrived' at two miserable huts, the only ha
man tenements on the island. Here they learned,
hr the fir 4 time, that they had struck on the West
tm point of West Calf Island, situated irrige Chan
between the village'of. Skull and raps debut
ant{ lyineabout,four miles inside t 'Cape.
i; Tle two fainilies who reside upon the island were
— ally ignorant of the melancholy circumstarKe, un
-111;. digressed and worn-out mariners entered
wretchml cabins for the purpOse of craving
seeker for the bight.
The same writer adds-- ,
It may be proper to mention bare thafthe point
which the ill-tated vessel was driven aphore, is
4'4 44 the most di Nieto= on the make coas‘...-the

of their number, Messrs. Reigned and Krogh, as
delegates from Racine, and faither resolved that
they would not support the candidate of any politi

keep these,two classes of our population distinct

A FAMINE NEARS* Home.—lt would be rather
unaccountable after the alacrity we have ahowniin
extending aid to Ireland, if the famishing cry from
Newfoundlund for bread should be unheard by us.
This Wand is but five days sail from Boston. It
has a loopulation of some eighty thowiand, of whom
the greater number are fisherman. The only sta
ple crop - of the Island, the potato, has been destroy
ed by the rot : and the prospects of destitution and
wretchedness the coming winter are such as can
not but awaken the sympathies of the charitable.
We learn from Halifax, that a gentleman jam arriv
ed from Magdalen Island says, that there about ate
handled families on that Island in -the utmost state
of destitution, and unless immediate assistance
should arrive, they will die" of starvation. Robert.
Lowell, late missionary to Newfoundland, now at
Cambridge, Mass. will attend to the disposal of all
donations.

Louisville, Kentucky, and Vincennes, Indiana, was

the operators engaged in it at the PI iladelphia of

docurident, the wires were in connection all the
wayloCincianati, but interruptions occurring from
the way offices beyond Pittsburg, the line was dis
connected, anti the balance of the message had to
be re-written at Pittsburgh for Cincinnati, Louisville
and Vincennes. The messagowas furnished to the
pap4rs at the two former cures, and was mailed at
Vincennes for the St. Louis pape'rs.
