It is due to the citizens of Key West to state the eagerness and alacrity with which they launched their various crafts, that had been blown ashore, and started off with the expectation and hope of rescuing some fellow-being from a watery grave or a lingering death by aldrvationV P. S. In addition to the above too laroeuta-bly voluminous details, from the Light of the Reef, we have been permitted by the Secretary of the Merchants' Exchange Reading Room to copy the following from the bulletin board Ship Atlantic, Mallett, from Liverpool for this port, went ashore on Carysford Reef on the morning of the-4th inst. Same day, the gale increasing, cut away her masts; she then got into deep water, when her chain parted and she struck on the rocks.

Part of the cargo, consisting of drv goods and. hardware, were saved "and brought to Key West. The crew and passengers had also arrived there. Ship reported to have bilged. Sloop Mount Vernon, a wrecker, was lost near the ship, and 14 souls who were on board perished.

The masts of the schooner, seen standing about 25 miles eastward of the Saud Key Lights on the morning of the 9th, was reported to have been the cutter. A boat was despatched to her, and when our informant left, the news had reached that it was the pilot boat Louisa. i 3T Another gale was experienced in the vicinity of Boston on the night of the Clh which blew with great violence for six or seven hours from the North-east, The schooner Richard, of Harwich, and brig Tremont, of New York were both driven ashore below and wrecked.

Both crews were saved. Iron Revenue Cotters. A good deal was 'said some weeks since of a proposed trial of skill between the two new iron revenue cutters Legare and Spenqer, which lately sailed from New York. According to a rumor noticed in the Evening Mirror, they have both proved in ferior sailerswand are pronounced: unfitted for the service for which they were intended.

Officers and crew all well. The Columbia arrived at Lisbon on the 1st of September, from Gibraltar. 1 X3T It is said that the effort to raise the hull of' the steamer Missouri, in the harbor of Gib raltar, has been given up as a hopeless job.

Illicit Trade. A large seizure of tea, tobac co, was made at Middle Musquodobit, near Halifax, Nova. Scotia, by the revenue offi cers. It appears that an extensive system of smuggling has been carried on between Boston and Musquodobit, from which latter place the goods were conveyed to Halifax over land. Large Dividend.

Hsiilar From the Coast of Africa. The Bermuda Royal Gazette contains a letter, from which the following intelligence is gleaned: The Ringdove, fitted out at Bermuda with the Wasp and Albatross, in April and May last, sailed hence on the 8th of May, and after a fine Dassage. arrived at Port Prava on the S5ih of June where she found H. S. Mada-f gascar, 44; to whom she supplied provisions having been two and a half years on thei West coast.

On the 23d, the Ringdove reached Sierra Leone, and there found the Spanish brigantine Sirius, with 326 slaves on board, bound to Havana, sent In by H. M. steamer Hydra also a slave brig sent in by H. M. S.

The Glen Huntley was also there. There were 2500 slaves at the Gallinas, in the factories, ready for shipment. The Hydra had lost 20 men by sickness. The Madagascar had captured ten slave vessels with 1400 slaves. She would sail for England on the return of the Penelope, which vessel had left Port Pray a for Ascension with fresh water.

The British squadron cruising against the slave trade, on the West coast, consists of the Madagascar, Ringdove, Wasp, 'Albatross, Alert, 'Spy, Ferret, Sappho, Rapid, Sea Lark, and two steamers, Penelope and Hydra two or three other men of war about the Cape and St. i EP It is stated in the N.

Merchants who are desi rous of sending tb their correspondents our Sunday morning daily, containing the Weekly Review of the Market," can avoid the delay which often occurs at the desk, by leaving their orders with us on Saturday evening.

In that case, their papers will be ready for them aij an early hour on Sunday morning, carefully enveloped for the mails. I The rain appears to have set in for the season much to the delight of those whose cisterns were empty. It commenced raining on Thursday morning, and has continued at intervals to rain evershicei Fire. There was an alarm of fire about 7 clock last evening, occasioned by the burning of a shantee some distance below the Cot ton Press in the Third Municipality. Damage trifling.

The steamer J. M. White furnished us with Natchez papers last evening. Thanks. Our Extra.

We yesterday morning issued an extra narrating the melancholy loss of life and the great destruction of property occasioned by the late severe gale on the Florida coast. It also embraced the election news from Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Ohio, as far as heard from. We transfer the whole to our columns this morning, with some additions. It will be found to commence on the first page. Our citizens will be pained to hear of the probable untimely fate of Wm.

B. G. Taylor, commander of the revenue cutter Vigilant, his son, and all on board of her. Mr. Taylor, as man, was frank, brave and generous, and as a public officer courteous, vigilant and indefatigable.

We speak of his probable untimely fate" because there is no actual proof that he has perished. We shall therefore indulge the hope, till further is learned, that Providence has spared him to society and his family. Inquest. Coroner Ramos hejd an inquest yesterday morning, in Louisa street, between Tchoupitoulas and Levee streets, on the body of a white man named Bellwho died suddenly from intemperance. Verdict accordingly.

Pennsylvania Elections. In the extra which we published yesterday of these elec tions, we copied from the National Intelligencer of the 11th, and inadvertently gave the number of counties heard from as 34, whereas that print only had returns from 28 counties. In our baste to issue the extra, we overlooked the Baltimore American, which paper weeubsequeBtly opened, I and from which we have made our list of re- turns this morning. Andrew Vaughan, who was arrested on Wednesday, for stealing copper from! Messrs. Lyall Davidson, was sent down yesterday to the Criminal Court by Recorder Baldwin.

I 1 i That excellent steamboat, the James L. Day one of the fine steam packets between ihis port and Mobile has been laid up for the last three weeks, undergoing such slight re pairs as she might require. She has now been thoroughly renovated, and is in as complete order as when she first left the stocks in New York. She leaves this morning on her first trip preparatory to entering upon the winter's business. She will go through by daylight, leaving the Lake end of the railroad by six 'o'clock, A.

and reaching Mobile about sun down, so that the Mobile papers of to-morrow will have the perusal of this day's Picayune such as it is nearly half a day earlier than usual. No better boat navigates our waters than the James L. Day. Her commander, Charles Reynolds, and her clerk, Mr1. Tift, are worthy of the boat, being all assiduity to ren der, a passage upon her safe and agreeable.

We wish all a prosperous season. Richard Brady was yesterday arrested .1 by the police of the Second Municipality, on the charge of having a stolen watch in his pos session. Me will be examined to-day. New Books. We have received a bundle of books from the Harpers of New York, through Mr.

Woodall, of 49 Camp street, but can only enumerate tbem. The 10th number of Harpers Illuminated and new Pictorial Bible" as superb as ever; the 3d number of the translation of Sue's Wandering Jew the Jilt," novel, by the author of Cousin Geoflrey," the 8th number of Neat's History of the Puri tans," edited by J. O. Choules; and a work entitled Medicines, their Usee and Modes of Administration, by J. Moore Neli- gan, M.

with notes and additions by Dr. David M. Reese, of New York. This appears to be a valuable work. There is a mysterious looking para graph in the Courier of last evening, about a bottle picked up at Biloxi, containing a note written in blood, and purporting to be dated on board the brig Rover.

The motives of the Cou rier's correspondent are no doubt commendable, but the Rover has been up for Texas some days, and the; last we heard of her, she was advertised to sail this moroing for Galveston. 1 Appointment.

The Tri bune of the 9th inst. says The money market is abundantly, sunnlied with capital, seeking avenues of investment and loans are easily negotiated on hypotheca tion oi tne nest stocks, at 44j per cent.

The imuKs are uiscounting snort paper at per ct. when they cannot get more and the loans which they refuse at current rates, are eagerly taken by private capitalists in the street. It is now generally admitted in Wall street that money must be abundant for some to come.

They have got travelling facilities arranged in pretty good shape between this and Boston at the present time for instance, I left the lat ter city yesterday morning a little past 8 o'clock, after a comfortable, quiet, and excel lent breakfast at the princely Tremont, and ar rived here in ample season to brush up, drink a cup of tea, and to be in at the overture at the Italian opera tolerably rapid getting along" over the ground I do think.

The way it's done, too, is far from tiresome. You take the Wor cester and Norwich train of care and arrive at point this side the latter place about noon. From thence to Greenport, L. across the Sound, you take a eteamer; and as the time occupied there is about two hours, you have a chance to shave, brush, stir round, obtain a dinner, and get rested before resuming the cars. The new Long Island Railroad is one of the best over which I have travelled, and I have seen several.

The cars are commodious, the Beats roomy, the roads smooth, and you go right along" with a velocity seldom equalled. I would advise all my friends who can afford a day to try it it is certainly far pleasanter than the night line. They gave the first representation of Ft' rata at Palmo's last evening, and an indiffer ent performance it was in comparison with what we used to have in New Orleans. There was a weakness, a thinness about it, none of the performers, save Valtellina, doing their parts full justice. Do you recollect the manner in which Caldwell was wont to bring out operas at the old St.

Charles for instance, when For- nasari, Montressor and Pedrotti, to Bay nothing of other principals, were in the casts They don't make 'em so" nowadays. I have no news to relate, but in its stead will give you an anecdote of a Mormon preacher which is too good to be lost. A few days since, at New Bedford, one of the apostles sent forth to promulgate the faith of the Latter Day Saints advertised that he would give an eve ning lecture, "free gratis for and earnestly called upon the good citizens to at tend. He procured a suitable room, had it well lighted, and when the time came found himself surrounded with some thirty or forty listeners. After a somewhat lengthy harangue, in which he set forth the rise, progress and onward march of the true Mormon church, he finally finished; but just as the congregation were rising to depart, he checked them for a moment with the remark that he hoped they would contribute enough to pay for the light ing of the room, which only amounted to the paltry sum of six dollars.

A hat was carried round by an assistant apostle, and after circling round the room was returned, with its contents of pics and pennies, to the follower of Joe Smith. Slowly he turned the hat over upon bis desk, deliberately be counted the change two dollars and twenty-five cents was the entire sum. The apostle looked about him. My hearers," said he, with a small earthquake of smothered indignation in his looks My hearers, the expenses of the room are six dollars the entire receipts are two dol lars and twenty-five cents, and not the first red cent more Now, I told you. in the first place, that my own services were gratuitous.

I charge nothing for preaching, and Til see ihis generation eternally before Til find lights!" i I I tell this story as it was told to me. G.j W. K.

We yesterday re ceived a copy of the first number of this paper, for which we had been looking for several days with great interest. We have not been disap pointed) in the paper, unless it be and we are sincereJin the assertion that it is conducted with more practical sense and tact than we gave the author-editors credit for.

In the out- I set we should say that the Mirror is printed in a fair, open type, on a sheet of convenient di mensions, and is altogether as elegant, in ap pearance as any daily paper in New York. It is not purely literary far from it. are repeated allusions to literary themes and lite' rary people, but nothing far-fetched, recondite or prosy. One article is entitled. Neutral Review of Politics," and it is written with free dom and good sense.

hese reviews are to appear twice each week. Under the head of 44 Money Market" is an intelligent discussion of the business affairs of the day. These, ad ded to the little news items, form the staple of the first number save the editors' salutatory. which is too long for us. We confess that we have been sceptical as to the success of the Evening Mirror, but our doubts have been already in a good measure dispelled.

There is a large amount of adver tising in the number before us it indicates practical tact on the part of the editors, and all know that Mr. Willis possesses ability to cope with the discussion of any subject. We antici pate for the Evening Mirror decided success, and recommend it warmly to our readers. We make as extended an extract from the pros pectus of the editors as we can find room for The undersigned, having for some time published a popular periodical, the postage on which varied, at the caprice of the postmasters, from two cents to fifteen, and having struggled in vain to procure from the Department either certainty or moderation, as to its cost by postage, have determined to struggle no longer against such oppressive discouragement, but to change the form of the Weekly Mirror, and issue in addition a daily paper, to be called the "Evening Mirror," a Journal of Life and It will be neutral in politics, and aim to embrace everything that can interest the bu siness man and the members of a familv com bining, it is intended, all the qualities of the best newspaper that industry and experience can put together. The type will be new and beautiful.

The literary character of the editors will perhaps prepare the public for some favoring of their particular pursuits, and without encroaching at all on the commercial department of the paper, great care will be given to the quality of our mirror of literature. I'm off when you talk about working," as the cork said to the ginger pop.

The rain poured down in torrent during the greater part of yesterday, and out-door business was in a great measure suspended. The transactions in Cotton amounted to about 1200 bales at previous prices, taken chiefly tor England. Holders offer their stocks freely, and the market does not appear quite as firm as in the early part of the week. I Flour was quite firm yesterday at 4 to 4 izj lor Ohio, and $4 25 for favorite St. Louis brands.

Diseases of the skin have attracted comparatively but little importance until wiiDin a snort period, ana peruaps mere never was a time when so much interest has been manifested as at present, both on account of the local ravages of this class of maladies, and their being the attendants of the most obstinate chronic constitutional disorders.
