AwFUL Watecx.--We have already meni. aned the loss of the steamer WVyndott, on ae Mississippi River, on the 21st tit. The t., Lotris Republican gives the tollowing rilling details of this sad calamity: "The boat had just rounded to at Pawv aw Island on the 21st, for the purpose of oaling, and in going a short distance uip ream, under a very moderate head of steam, imake a landing, her larboard side struck raimit a projecting snag some thirty yards am the Mississippi shore, and in less thant renty minutes she wvent dowvn to her hurri ne roof. As soon as the shock was felt it as known that thze boat wias in a sinking indition, and Captain Y'ore instantly or tred the forward hatch to be raised in order ascertain the extent of damage, but before s order could be executed, and beforo 'the on could replace the hatches, the wanter as several imches above the main dlock,. ho men at the hatches fled, and the heat >mmenced settling with great rapidity. he horror of the moment can never he do. ribed. It wvas evident to all that the boat as going to the bottom in deep water; and e rush fronm all parts of the hurricane (lock as attended with the greatest contfusion. oen after she commenced illling, she ca 'ened to the injured side-andi to this may attributed the great loss of life. Our in. rmant, wvho was on duty at the time, states at the engine room wvas filled with barrels d~acks, piled uip in tiers; and whaen she reened, they fell in one promiscuous heap, 'ushimg many wvho were endeavoring to cape from the after-part, and entirely cut. ig off all retreat from others, Hie himself ado a narrow escape, and left the room justi time to save hiis life, swimming. In less an twenty minutes after she struck, noth-. g hut the hurricane roof, piilot house, &c.,i mnained above- wvater. All the cabin passengers, andl a great inn. from the deck below, succeedead in reach. g the hurrionno deck in safety. There are tween tweonty-five and thirty missing; and ,rible to relate, more thian half of these were alpless women andl children.

Th i gold fever, however, is stated to be leelir uing with the same rapidity with which t ares e, particularly in Newv York, and from he wv ant of money. 'The latter is likely to e tra t the decline of the fever we doubt; or ott ' people are disposed to hunt the mans odon,' before they see the elephant.
