Ship Emil y Taylor, fin Boston for New Orleans, re- ported at Key West , had a narrow escape, as she was upon a rock y bottom. The salvage upon her would be heavy. Captains Hardic of the E T, and Patten of shi p M Howes,bqth of which got ashore in sight of Key West, attribute their disasters to the want of a good light at Sand Key. The present one is regarded as a decoy. Sch Elliot , (of Provinc etown) Cook, fm Jacmcl for Boston , got ashore at the SW end of Crooked Island pa ssage , 18th ult. Capt Freeman of the Roderic Dim. at New York , sent a boat with his first, officer and four men to assist her. They carried out her anchor and then left her. A number of wreckers were seen going to her assistance, and it was the opinion of the first of- ficer that she would be got oit after disg her cargo. Bri g Helen F Ryder , of Provincetown , at, New York , from Satilla River , Ga, was struck by a N W squall , at 5 rai, 26t h ult ,when about, two miles SE from the float- ing light; had both topmast s carried away, split sails, and received other damage.

Some of her cargo was taken out by small ves- sels, and a small amount was .brown over Brig Richmond , of New Bedford, while lyi ng aground at W.lrmngton , NO , had her H ying jib an fl boO,n burnt ott by the burning of a saw mill , and a mil lio n feet of yellow pine l u mber By ,;,Tat exertions , Capt Gibbs and crew with the aid of some citizens , got her afloat and moved her to a safe ]d;u-e. Sch Savannah , of Sandwich , fm Baltimore for New- port , with coal , before reported sunk in Chesapeake Bay, had st ruck on the bar at Barn Island , during the gale, night of 24th. The sea made a complete breach ove r her. and forced her aeros- the bar , when she be- gan to lloat dow n the current. Being in a sinking con- dition , Capt Barlow, and crew took to the boat to land on Barn Island , but tho boat up set, ab ove half a mile from shore , and they clung to her until she was driven upon the beach. They obtained unother boat, and pro- ceeded to Deals Isla nd , whence they were taken to Bal- timore by steamer Gazelle , which was taking passengers up from a cam]) meeting. Capt B and crew being en- tirel y destit ute , a collectio n was made for them , to ob- tai n clotbing. &e, and a free passage was given " them. Tho Savannah floated down to Hooper 's Island , where sh e sank. She was partl y insured in New Bedford. The sail boat Hornet , o( abt 9 to ns , went ashore 25th ult , near Pl ymouth. Four persons who were on board , were saved. The report that a vessel from Eastham Cam]) -Meeting , was lost on one of the outer islands is said to have orginated from the above.

T. WOOD , Secretary. Middleboro ', Aug. 20. Ow ^ The Kais- Stoum of Sunday , 28th clt.—We hear of this storm as far East as Bangor , and as far South as Baltimore. At the former place trees were ' blown clown , the standing crops in the vicin ity were |injured , and other damage was done. On the " Ches- I peake the storm was severe on Sunday ni ght , and j much damage was done to the shi pp ing. At Spring- field , as in Boston , the amount of rain which fell on Sunday was unprecedented. It continued 14 hours , and the rain gauge at the United States Armory .in- dicated 4 inches 18-100. At Philadel phia and New York the rain descended in torrents. Tine Marvels op California.—Henry A. Schoolcraft , of Sacramento , California is now on a visit to his relativ es in Albany, He is about twen- ty five years of age , and went out to California as a private soldier in Col. Stevenson 's regiment. Attei his discharge from the United States service he ob- tained emp loyment as book keeper for Captain Sut- ter , and has since accumulated an estate valued at '£350 ,000. While in Captain Slitter 's emp loy, he had at one time the pay ing off of six hundred clerks and surveyors , not one of whom received less than thirteen dollars per day. lie statcs that during his stay with Capt . Suiter $15,000 ,000 of that gentle- man 's money passed throug h his hands. A gentleman of New York , (we learn from the ! Tribune) sojourning at Saratoga , lost , at play, the pretty little sum of &"200 ,000, or thereabouts. The poor plucked pigeon offered to settle by pay ing each of his two fashionable compeers,who had won ,$5000 down , and giving his notes for #50,000. This they |refused , and after some discussion it was finall y '• agreed to leave the matter to the aibitration of a I fourth parly, who decided that S2000 was as much as any gentleman had a right to lose at one silting. and that the winners , therefore , were each entitled to no more than that sum. The victim immediatel y forked over the amount. Mr. Clay closes his reply to the Mayor of Buffalo , asking him to become the city guest in behalf of all parties as follows : ''There are occasions when the great interests ,and the safely of our country require an oblivion of all party difference , and a united devotion of our best exertions to the secuiity and perservation of our Union. We are in such a crisis at this moment , and [ am happy to be able to declare , that I have witnessed among my Democratic fellow citizens , as pure and patri otic disinterestedness as has been manifested by any other party in the country. " The difficulties between the United States and Portugal have been settled between Mr. Webster and J. C. de Fignniere , minister resident from Port- ugal. Portugal pays all the claims of the United Statcs , except the Armstrong claim , and that is to be referred to a friendl y power for arbitration. Mr. Clay, who is at Naples, will now receive instructions to return to Lisbon , to resume the duties of his mis- sion. Severe Storm at Norfolk.—The storm of Saturday ni ght from S. E. to W. was the severest experienced in the Chesapeake for thirty years past. The steamer "Osceola " had her wheelhouse blown away, and several small vessels were seen ashore , some dismasted off the Capes. Several houses in the country were blown down , and a woman and two children were killed. We have beard nothing as yet from the coast , but serious injuries are appre- hended. The Ticket.—The following ticket , in attrac- tive cap itals , appears at the head of the editorial columns of the Lafayette Specu lator : FOR PISKSIDENT IN 1852 : HEN11Y CLAY. Subject lo the most voles. Well , there is nothing like being in the field be- t imes. Launch.—The packet ship Daniel Webster , now building by McKay at East Boston , will be read y to be launched about the last of the present month, Robbing a Lady.—W hile at the Melodeon in Boston on Wednesday morning last , a lad y from Brid gewater, was robbed by some ungallant pick- pocket of her purse , containing about $25 in bank bills. _ * Census oi<" Groton.-—The population of'Gro- ton , according lo the United States census just com- pleted , is 2511—showing an increase of 129 ovei the state census taken in May. The Dog Days continue , from the 30th Jul y to the 10th September. Many persons suppose that during this time dogs are predisposed to hydrop ho- bia; but the true reason for the name is an astro- nomical one. The sun 's path ,as it is called , but more proper ly the earth's orbit ,is divided into parts ,whi ch are noted by certain fixed stars , or clusters of stars. That from Jul y 30 to September 10, the sun 's path ies under the star Siring , which is in the constella- tion of Canis Major , or Great Dog. This constella- tion consists of thirty one stars,of which Sirius is the brightest , and often takes the name of the Dog Star. This is what gives the name to Dog Days, and those who fear the dogs will run mad particularl y at this time , may dismiss their apprehensions.
