VaalWant fen* and Vital Ss* LOOS OP THE STEAD ARCTIC. New Fork, Ore. 11-8 30 A. 1... The steamer A rrtic was lost off Cape Race ttli the 27th ult. Only 32 known to be saved. Eighteen have arrived here. The Arctic came in collision with an unknown propeller as Won on the 47th September, about 40 miles off Cape Race, in a dense for,. Th e triiltiftrof the Arrtic was about 13 knots an hour, and the propellor had all sails net with a 'strong fair wind. It was at first supposed that the Arctic had imsettined little l or no injury, and assistance was immediately rendered to the propeller, wideh was frightfully damaged; but it was soon di/0 0141143 d that the Arctic was leaking fast, and it gained so rapidly that the fires were soon extinguished.— Every effort was then Made to save those on the Arctit—but as four or five boats had left to ren der assistance to the propeller, there was but one left, which was soon filled, and a raft was hasti ly constructed. A panic took possession of those on board the Arctic, and they crowded for the raft. A large number reached the raft, and others drowned in the attempt. All this time the vessel was fist tilling, and of a sudden she, with all remaining on board, was eagulpbed in the sea All on the raft, escept one, who clung to it for 24 hours, were drowned At 3 o'clock P M. of the 28th, the Bargite Heron, of St. Andrews, N 8., Capt T. Wall, hove in sight, and took those in the boat on board —32 in number Eighteen of them were subee luently transferred to the ship Lebanon, and ar nved' here this A. M. Most of those who were saved belonged to the erew. The Arctic had 221; patasengers and a crew of 175 men. Upwards of 200 men were seeu ou the propel ler whose fate is unknown, Capt. T. Wall, of the /Limn, states, however, that on the 28th, in the morning, he saw a sin trlooking vessel in the distance, which it has i conjectured may be the wreck of the pro peller Hopes are entertained that some of the miss• ing boats may have been picked up, or reached land, and that the list of saved may be greatly increased HALIFAX, Oct. 11. No advises yet received from the missing boats of the .4retir. lu addition to the brigantine dam Dizu, dispatched by Warren and Brothers under an arragement with the American Consul, and other vessels, the Right Rev. Mr. Field has placed his yacht thick at the disposal of Mr. Newman, who lost no time in fitting her out for sea. She left at 1 P. M , yesterday, with instruc tions to cruise for six days southward of the is land. The steanier arrived from Westwood on Mon day, evening, and remained at the Co's wharf till yesterday afternoon The following statement of the loss of the Arctic, by Mr Balham, the 2tl officer, appeared in an extra on Tuesday. Mr B. and the other officers and passengers saved in the two boats, arrived at Broad Cove and reached here on Tues day On Wednesday, the 27th, at noon, Cape Race bearing north-west, G 5 miles distant, while run ning in a very thick fog, were struck on the star board bow, abut 110 feet abaft the cut-water, by an non steamer, which made three large boles— two below the water—une of which was about 5} in length and I -r I 4 wide, leaving the whale cut-water and stem of the iron 4tearucr clear through the _trot, '• side So dense was the fog that the vessel muld nut be seen a minute before the collision The helm was put hard a starboard, the engine was stopped instantly, and backed at full speed until clear of the other steawer, which occupied about two minutes The French steamer seemed to be sinking bow first. Capt. Luce immediately gave orders to clear away the quarter boats, which was done, and Mr. Gourley, chief officer, left the Arctic, in charge of the starboard boat. On lowering the port boat, the Captain ex claimed, "hoist up that boat again." Mr Bel ham then beckoned me to go to him Upon doing so, he told me to go over to the bow to as certain, if possible, what damage had been done. : I then found the holes above mentioned Upon informing him of the facts,be gave orders to get sails up and try and get them around the bow to stop the leak, wliich was promptly done , but to ti advantage whitever So much of the bow and iron was broken off from the other steamer that the ( sails could not be brought close to the vessel• 4ide A carpenter was thee lowered down over the veleiels sides, and pillows and mat tresses passed down to him to try, if possible, to force them in, but the leakage was found to be so far below the water line that they could not be used, and 'every exertion to stop the leak proved unavailing Capt Luce thee ordered the ship'• head to be kept ahead which. bore NWby W By this time, we had l.st sight of the chief officers boat and the other steamer, which we, supposed had sunk. We had not been on our course more than four or five minutes before she ran over a .boat and crew belonging to the other vessel, all of whoM perished except one, who =lea bold of a rope hanging over the bow Directly the boat was seen, orders were given I to stop the engine, which the chief engineer said oould not be done, as the ship was fast sinking. In about 30 initiates all the lower fires were out, and at least 3 feet water in the bold fore and aft. By this time the confusion among the passen gers was very great, but they used all efforts to , assist the crew in keeping the deck pumps going, and in lighting the ship forward for the purpose of endeavoring to get at the leak from inside, -which was found to b.. useless and numbers of them going into the boats which were still bang ing at the davits In 45 minutes atter the collision, I came up from the forehold and informed the captain that the water was on a level with the lower deck beam, and that it was impossible to get at the leak. I asked him what he thought would be the fate of the ship, when he stated his belief to me that there was no hope of saving her. He then told me to see to my boats. Oa going to those on the port ,side, I found diem oompletely filled with men, women and siti/dreo, and no possibility of getting near them. I immediately went to the starboard side and or doted two of the crew to lower the guard boat, and asked Captain what were hie intentions.— He replied that the ship's fate should be his. I then asked hiiidf he would allow his son to go, as I intended to take a boat, but he returned me the answer that be would share his fate. It was soon diseovered that there was 10 hope of saving the Arctic, and the lady, daughter and son of Mr. I. K. Collins, with several ladles, were put on board a boat, in the set of lowering which, one of the tackles gave way, and all, ex cept sae lady who clung to a sailor holding fast to dee boat, were precipitates! into the sea and Lost. I then )LL pod into a boot, and was ordered by the Captain to cut away the tackle, falls, and drop =der the stern. I aid so, sivl at the muse tiastaleant 20 persons jumped overload, of whoa <l7 or 18 were picked up. We fell in with ea other boat which Lad been lowered from the oth er aide, and lightened her of part of her load, leaving 19 in her and 26 in my own boat.

Johnson, late of Lexington, Ky., died from the abets of the wound. His system had been paralysed from the moment he received the fatal shot, and after lingering three days expired about 4 o'clock yesterday morning, thus adding one more:bkoody deed to the annals of Louisville. An examination of this case:was held in the Police Court Thursday, the details of which ap peared in the Courier yesterday. According to the testimony of the witnesses, the deceased had a pistol out, and waved it at the crowd in the large hall or entrance room of the Ghat House. Almost on the instant, Johnson, who was in the crowd, drew a pistol, stooped or squatted down, and fired. Lawrence, who was thirty or forty feet off, turned away and retreated to the pursued by Johnson, who Bred a second shot, which took effect in the thigh. The deceased still retreated, running up the street followed by Johnson, who when a few paces behind his vic tim, fired the third and fatal shot, which struck the shoulder blade, and lodged in the spine.— Lawrence fell to the ground, and:was borne away by persons who gathered around, and died the morning after the examination of the mac— Johnson was held to bail to answer to the charge of "shooting with intent to kill." Now that the man is dead, what course will the law purpose ? ill, Muria.. LETTER PROM A NAVAL OMORR.-A friend has permitted us to look at a letter just received from a gentleman in the Naval service on board the United States steamer Sammie, dated at Spezia, September 18. It is about as late as anything we have from that quarter, through English channels, and altogether reliable. We make an extract : Since I last wrote to you we have been again to Constantinople. The combined English and French forces were at Varna, situated a short distance up the Mack See. They had lost some thirty thousand men by cholera, and they were still dying in. great numbers. One Raleigh fri gate lost one hundred and seventy men during one night. It is impossible to imagine the hor rid state they are in. Daring our stay at Con stantinople orders were received for the forces to proceed to take Sebastopol, but from waver miaow, I had with several English officers, I con cluded that they were very doubtful of success, owing to the dreadful condition of the men.— The sth lust. was the day appointed to make the attack We shall soon know the result. On our return we stopped for half an hour at Messina, where we found the cholera was raging dreadfully. Since the '2lst of Awmt between 11,000 and 12,000 have died, and they were still dying at the same rate. Spezia is perfectly healthy, and bee been so all summer. —St. Louis Repitidicoui. IiARNIBLE MURDNE KLAN LIMINGTON—MAN KILLID BY HIS OVZILSZZA AND WIPE.—We were informed yesterday evening by pa/meager, on the cars from Lexington of a tragedy that occurred in the county of Fayette, on Saturday night., which almost transcends belief, it is of so horrible a nature. Mr. Fraser, a farmer of the county, had been absent with his stock at New York for several months and on Saturday tele graphed to his family that he would reach home that evening. His neighbor and partner, Mr. Castleman, awaited his arrival at the depot, and conveyed him to his residence. Leaving the house, Mr. C. was startled about an hour after ward by the report of a gun. He immediately went to Fraser's, and there discovered him dead, the house darkened, Mrs. F. above stairs, Grigg, the overseer, below, and a daughter, aged eleven, with the mother. They accounted for the death of the man by the accidental discharge of a shot gun, which he had in his hand preparing to shoot a rat. Suspicions were aroused and the overseer and Mrs. Fraser both arrested. The body of the deceased was terribly bruised, a hole shot in his bead, another through his body, his throat very nearly out, and three ribs broken, effects - not reasonably caused by accident. There appears to be no doubt in the minds of those advised of the facts, as to the criminality of Mrs. Fraser and Grigg.—Lowisrille Courier. ay. The African code of honor is not likely to be adapted to any other latitude. A recent publication contains this detail of its process: At the appointed time, the duelists appeared upon the field of honor, accompanied by friends who were to witness their victory or sympathize in their defeat. Pec.h stalwart savage leaped in to the arena, armed with a cow bide eat, whose sharp and triple thongs were capable of infliztf e z the toughest blows. They stripped, and their minim into the air, to determine which of the two should receive the first lashing. The unfortunate loser immediately took his stand, and received with the firmness of a martyr, the allot ted number of blows. Then came the tour pif the whipper, who, with equal constancy, offered his back to the scourge of the enraged sufferer. Thus they alternated until one gave in, or until the bystanders decreed victory to him who bore the punishment longest without wincing. The flayed backs of these chivalrous men of honor were ever after displayed in token of bravery.

Zmigration. It is supposed, from reliable data, that at least four hundred thousand emigrants will land on our shores this year. By the census of 150, the population to the United States was over twenty three millions, of which eighteen millions were native whites, over two millions were foreign born, thirty-nine thousand w, re , f unknown na tivities, and three millions two hundred thousand were slaves. From 1810 to 1,569,850 ; foreigners came to our shores From 1320 to 1830, the average number was only 20,000 a year. From 1330 to 1846, about 70,000 a year. The Irish famine and the c..utmental revolution in 1847, increased the euaigratem to 240,000 in 1847, and to 300,000 in 1850 The total num ber of emigrants to the United State, - . lace 1790, ' and living in 1850, together with descendants. amounted, (when the census was taken,) to 4,304,417. The great number of deaths among foreigners in the United States is appalling, and average, it is thought, at least fifty per cent What effect the present war will have upon the question of emigration, remains to be seen. It is probable that among thy• peasantry of Germany, many will seek shelter in this coentry from the curse which a protracted war will entail upon the continent. On the other hand, the emigration from Ireland may be partially checked by en liatmente in the army, which opens an avenue by which a large number of its inhabitants can es cape from starvation. $ Reader, don't grumble at, the- ob s ,",„ this week, because it is, Editorially, "state, flat and unprofitable."

It Imp; : "But, however free all men may be by nature according to theoritical republicanism, practice has shown that no two people with distinctly marked and uncongenial characteristics can se•- cupy the same territory at the same time on term. of equality. Either there must be sympathy enough between them to produce fusion, or the one will be virtually if not nominally the muter of the other." If that does sot justify slavery, remarks the St. Louis baelligencer, we should like to see it done. Either the Frannie thinks that there are no "such distinctly marked and uncongenial characteristics" about the negroes as prevent them from occupying the same territory as the whites on terms of equality, or it should cease its phillippics on the subject of slav - lry. Slavery in fact, whether u name or not, will exist, it says, wherever such differences of race exist, Is it that the Tribune is the ehampion of negroes alone, and is willing to give the Chinese irp to bonds ?
