Keninine, salted from New Orleans in 1840, for San Francisco, tak? ing a number of passengers who had been seized with the gold fever, and touched at Port I'ruva and Rio Janeiro, which port she left in the latter part of the year. A vessel calliug at Rio shortly after reported speaking the Florin da in the Pacific, just beyond Cape Horn, but nothing more, was ever heard of her. The New Orleans J'ivaipm* says that a short time ago a friend of the wife of one of the passengers of the schooner read in an English paper that a British naval vessel, driven out of her course, sighted an unknown island in the lower Pacific, and found upon it several persons, who said they were the Florinda party, who had been wrecked on the island, and had been there ever since?more than twenty-five years ago. The names given were those of the Florinda's crew, and in other ways the identity of the party is said to have been established. It is fur? ther stated that the offer to take the men off was declined, on the ground that as they had been lost so long, they pre? ferred ending their days there. Further inquiries are on foot to establish the truthfulness of the account. A case of insanity lately developed it? self in a very singular manner in the city of Bichmond. A young lady pro? minent in society announced her engage? ment to a certain gentleman, and fre? quently talked of the matter to many of her friends, The day for the wedding was ultimately appointed, and numbers invited to witness the ceremony. All preparations were made at the house of the lady, the guests assembled, and all was in readiness for the nuptials, but no bridegroom came. He was waited pa? tiently, until it became evident that he would not appear, when the guests de? parted, filled with indignation at the singular occurrence. On the next morn? ing, the young lady was a raving maniac. Eventually the truth of the matter came out. The gentleman implicated denied any engagement to the lady and all knowleclgo of the proposed wedding. The whole affair had been but the result of an insane delusion. ? . . - Put Me Down n/H Six Months.?A citizen who was a moderate drinker was besought by a temperance agent to affix his signature to an .abstinence pledge. He declined, giving various reasons. At last, however, he finished by observing, '?Well, I'm m illing tofiijbserihe a little to help you along put me down for six months." What It Will Do!
