He .aya Benjamin separated from. Davis carly in May,, near Washington, Ga., for the purpose of making his way to Nassau and Havana from soins* point on the Florida coast. He was to at? tend to some public business at the posts, andth?n rejoin the President in transmission via Matamoras and Texas. He traveled directly South through Georgia and Florida,' on horseback, disguised as a farmer in search of land, without exciting or at? tracting attention, till he reached the lowor side of the penin.ula of Florida. He was informed no boats could be found on the eastern coast, and went to the gxilf shore, where, after a month's delay, he succeeded in getting a ship yard boat lind two men who were will? ing to risk their lives upon the sea in it. The open boat was about fifteen feet long, in which they coasted the peninsula till they reached ono oi' the keys of Florida reef, where they suc? ceeded ip procuring a boat somewhat larger, in which they put' to sea to cross the gulf stream, and fortunately reached Bordes upon the banks after a passage* of sixty hours. Oh the Kith day of July, after an unsuccessful attempt to reacli Nassau, in which he was baffled by head winds and heavy weather, he put back to Barnes, and on Friday, the 14th, tho sloop foundered thirty miles from the nearest lan ch The vessel went down :..o rapidly that he with the cre**?, had barely time to -jump into a skiff in tow o? tile sloop before she sank.
