SHIPWRECKS AND ACCIDENTS AT SEA . Dreadful Shipwreqk . —Intelligence was received at Lloyd ' s on Saturday of a most shocking shipwreck and loss of life . The agent at Queenstown ( Cork ) communicates the arrival of the Oxefea , Mr . Smith , master , from New Orleans , which reports that ou the 16 th oi September , while in the Gulf of Mexico , they fell in with the wreck of the American vessel Mount Vernon , and succeeded in takino- oil
J * * ^^ HV te . m . i 7 _ _ -J __ . — J I ^ t % * » — ^ J six unfortunate creatures , who for six days had been exposed to the most terrible amount of suffering . They were almost starved to death , having been clinging to the sides of the wreck for six entire days without the least provisions or ' water . They learnt from the poor fellows that the remainder of the " crew , with some passengers—in all 12 , had perished . The six survivors were put on board the Superior , which was bound for America , and which would convey them to their native country . Information has also been communicated of the
washing up at Arklow of a large quantity of wreck , which led to a belief that a ship of upwards of 1 , 000 tons had been lost on the coast during the late gales , and that all on board of her had perished . Wueck op the ^ Wiule-Siiip " Horn . "—It is our unpleasant duty to rocord the total losss of the ship Horn , which for the last sixty-nine years has been employed from Dundee in pursuit of the trreenland whale fishery . The circumstance is rendered all the more distressing , that is has occurred after the vessel had accomplished a
Successful fishery , survived the innumerable dangers of the Arctic regions , arrived first of the whaling fleet on the coast , communicated the success of the vessels she had left , arrived at the entrance of the desired river , and within ei ght hours' sail of the port . The Horn caught her last fish on the 9 th of October , left the ice on the 18 th , passed through the Pentland Firth on the 1 st instant , and was stranded m St . Andrew ' s Bay between 10 and 11 o ' clock on Friday evening the 5 th hist . The crew were all saved

Tiik Parliamentary Radicals . —At present , ( we grieve to write it , ) Hume , Cobden , and Bright seem to be as entirely without a policy as Lord Derby . The protectionists and the radicals alike say to the country , « Put us in power ! Give us a policy ! and then , —we will do what we can . " We must not allow the radical party to deceive us , it they deceive themselves . Their desire for reform of parliament is not , in itself , a , policy ; it is but such a reconstruction of the central machine of state , as shall make it possible for a radical ministry to exist
. We need in every part of England , not a temporary league—got up at the expense of rich men who are personally aggrieved—a league aiming at only one object—frequented by only one side of politics . We want in each town and county a permanent and free . legislature , resting upon the whole population , competent to tax all for the good of all—not needing leave of parliament to mind the local welfare , but free to do all acts of sovereignty which do not hinder the general welfare of England . Such legislatures will enlighten each community better than any league , and will alone make it possible for any enlightened parliament to exist or to act freely . —Sheffield Free Press .
