-Captain Loveland of the schooner E. D. Ëndicott, which arrivod at Sugua la-Grande, reports that on the 19th uit., at two a. na., wheu tbrce miles south of Salt Cay Bauc), duiing a heavy galo from the nortb, he passed pieces of wreek with &vc men ou thein. But Captain Loveiand adds : It beiag too dark to aseertain what vesBal it was that had been wrecked, and the vessel being under close reefed sails, with thirty-nine hogsheads of suar for ballast, and a very heavy soa running from north-northwest lio oould not ronder any assistance whatever. And so the poor struggling wrotches werc Itft to their fato, which was douljtlesH soon deciifed. Possibly this was annther case of oollision and heartless desertion, but the particulars of whiuh may never come to light. The na'no of the craft may help to swell the liat of "missing vessel," nnd nothing more.
