Men with nothing but their shirts on were seen struggling in the water, officers were trying to get the boats while others were mounting the rigging.

As soon as Captain Greene, of the Canandaigua, get the news, he at once hoisted signals of distress and come to our assistance, and in three hours after the attack on the Housatonic all hands that were saved were safely transferred to that ship, where they received every attention.

Mr. Ranney's letter says: "Dr. Samuel McPhesters is enjoying all the rights of a civilian, but cannot preach the Gospel!" Mr. Coalter, in his letter, asks; "Is it not a strange, illustration of the condition of things that the question of who shall be allowed to preach in a church in St. Louis shall be decided by the President of the United States!" Now, all this sounds very strangely, and, wish, a little as if you gentlemen, making the application, do not understand the case alike, one affirmin

I have just looked over a petition signed by some three dozen citizens of St. Louis and their accompanying letter, one by yourself, one by a Mr. Nathan Rauney, and by a Mr. John D. Cealter--the whole relating to the Rev. Dr. McPhesters. The petition prays in the came of justices and mercy, that will restore Dr. McPhesters to all his rights.

scorching manifesto of Senator Pomeroy and his committee against Abraham Lincoln as a candidate for another term, and in favor of Mr. Chase for the succession, threatens, from present appearances, a rupture between the President and his ambitious Secretary. The spectacle of such a conflict for the Presidency is certainly a new thing under the sun, and somewhat discreditable withal to the belligerents. Not one of Mr. Lincoln's predecessors, excepting, perhaps, that imbecile old man, James Buchanan, would have tolerated for another day the presence of such a rival as Mr. Chase among his official subordinates after the discovery of such a declaration of war as this no quarter manifesto of Senator Pomercy. We are not surprised, therefore, to hear that the probabilities of a change or two in the Cabinet are beginning to be discussed among politicians at Washington. As between Mr. Lincoln and Mr. Chase, the Cabinet is now a nondescript with two heads, and it is doubtful which is or w

ven a fair warning that Mr. Lincoln cannot be re-elected; that if nominated certain-influences will be brought to bear against him which will insure his defeat. In other words, the radical Chase faction will not accept Mr. Lincoln as their candidate, but will combine with his enemies to defeat him, if nominated over the head of Mr. Chase. The radical Abolition Border State Convention which met at Louisville the other, day closed its proceedings with a set of anti Lincoln resolutions. Wendell Phillips and his Abolition pioneers, after turning and twisting Old Abe in every possible way, give him up in despair as a trimmer, a temporizer, a blunderer, and a bad bargain. Greeley and the New York radical entertain the same ideas; but Greeley desires to shelve Old Abe as quietly as possible, so as not to disturb the peace of the happy family. But only let Mr. Seward and his good man Friday, Thurlow Weed, try the experiment of a set of Lincoln nominating resolutions in the New York Legisl
