that was the dreadful conflict of pas sion with principle as soon as day dawned and the wretched state of the ship then almost a wreck wa e- vident the master gave orders to commence lightening her all hands were turned up the bulkheads forward were knocked down and all hands set to work to heave cargo overboard the difficulty of getting at it as she was then rolling and pitching was great but after half an hour a chain of hands was formed art and bales and chests and barrels and cases weie promiscuously hoisted upon deck where the foaming waves took them and swept them tit to lc tomi f

wear ship without consulting or com muning with a human being conscious as he was that the experiment was perilous in the extreme and would in all probability be fatal he gave the word and in a momentary lull she went about without straining a ropeyarn hope beamed on his mind then those who knew not his thoughts felt increased apprehen sions for she lay in the trough of the sea rol ling

at one blow like the stricken deer she fell toppling with her yards and topmast over the starboard side she went about ten feet abore the deck and just above the mizen stay and the mizen- mast itself trembled like a reed as welsted clung toil to watch the work of havock a- bttve it was a scene for a painter the noise was inconceivable the night inky black the waves dashing over every pari of the vessel the wo men battened down forward were screaming for mercy and their cries were mingled with the clashing of axes used by the men cutting away the rigging by the gleaming light of a it-

side endeavovring to clear the ship of the wreck for the mast clung as it were lo the quarter and the counter heat so heavily upon the main top which lay close beneath it that every moment they expected she would be stove in at this moment three following seas again swept her fore and aft and a shriek of horror which overtopped the bowlings of the tempest itself announced some dreadful calamity all those who were forward were washed at one fell swoop from of thehowsand plunged into inevitable destruction even fanny was con scious of the increase of noise and a change of motion in

their religion from the touch of the heretics the spanish forces on the lines of portugal to the southward are rep resented to be considerable in numbers but towards the north small and unable to disarm the rebels when tbey enter spain even if dis- possed to do so these letters say oporto had fallen they also mention the continuance of unpleasant notes between mr lamb and the spanish ministers and the continued re fusal of the king to acknowledge distinctly the constitution of portugal we have seen letters from cadiz to the 30th and from dif ferent parts of the south of spain to the same
