The missing Bteamer Smid), from 13reuien, arrivcd at New York Friduy, and tiiua relitved tlie nuxieties of tlio man y who wero anxiously ppeoulatiog npon the fato of tho crew and posengera. Frorn New York ppers of Saturduy we extract the following: Tho screw stca;i( r Smult, Cipt.in Gerkard Sobwere, left Iireraon on the 21st of January wilh 845 touls cd board, incliiding the Captain and iurtyoight oüicers mid crciv.

Tlrs was in lat. 14 deg. north and 27 dog. west. Bince that t:rae the Smidt Las not signaled any vessel. On Ór about the niuth of February, iho followi-r of lbo piston b:oke and tho engiue béfame useless; and before the cjlioder could be oponed the fullower temponirily repaired and the cyliutier put togothcr again thirteen days had clupsed. In the nicanüme the vessel had drifted to tho snubward under easy sail. Of courso the furtber south she went the iiner tho weather boeamo, and tho winds blcw only in gentle breezes oí'ten it was calm. Thus diif't ing along, nt last the latitude of 23 deg '0 min. north was reacbed, vthere the pnssengfirs enjoyed beautiful weutiser, the thennom&ior eften markirg from 75 to 80 degrecs in tho shado.

During the voyago one infaut, aged line raonths, died' of hercditary oonsumptioa, and two cbildieo viere boni. One of the little cues first drew breath on tho 22d of Februmy, Which eveat was eclebrated in couneoüon with the reuaembrance cf the birthday of Washington. Capt. Schwcrs ptates : While thu storm was raging we saw tvo English ships. They saw our ensign and read it, but did notgivo their own in reply.
