NEW YORK, MONDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 14, 1844. Key West. (Correspondence of the Herald.} Kay Wasr, Sept. 21, 1844. Curious State of Affairsjat Key West—The Way the Wrecking Business is Managed—Is there no Remedy ? A few lines from this ‘sea girt isle,” where as the poet happily expresses it, roses are continually unfolding their petals, fish never cease to swim, and rogues are as scarce as contributions at a charity sermon, may serve to amuse your readers, and at the same time instruct them in the art of all arts, the mystery of wrecking. You know the situation of the Key—how the reef extends around the eastern peninsula of Flori- da to Key Biscuyenne—and how when the storm and the elements are in commotion, this long line of sunken rock serves ag the resting place of many a noble bark, consigned with her rich cargo, and valuable lives to a watery grave, unless the “ wreckers” come to their reliet, and at once re- store the degpairing to hope, and rescue from the dominion of the waters, the property of the enter- prising merchant. These ‘* wreckers,” are sloops, from 60 to 80 tons, well manned, and whose cruising ground is within the reef, as far as Soldier or Biseayeane Key, where they remain some tour or five weeks, and then return to port. Here a new outfit of bread and pork takes place—those who ane lovers of liquor, dally with the wanton nymph until they are surfeited with her embrace; or, as is not unfrequently the case, recover their sobriety amid all the horrors of delirium tremens; and total abstinence, fromthe simple tact that the groggeries are opposed to all credit, and go in heart and hand with General Jackson, for the cash system... Thus much for the vessels in port. When a wreek is descried, which is generally done from one or both of the fook outs on the warehouses, a considerable sentiment of uneasiness is manilested, and a close observer might discover a certain smile, not clearly defined, it is true, but the begin- ning of what soon spreads into a broad grin, at the prospect of business You might deem a“ wreck” the subject ef every sympathy, and think that as good C iristians we should join 1n with the rescued, and repair tothe church to join in “Te Deum” for their deliverance. Well,we do, we sympathise heartily, and sorry am I to say it, some are so mercenary as to regulate their sorrows by the value of the catgo. A small affair but causes an emo- tion, particularly it the article is damaged, or not in demand, but should it prove ‘* cotton,” why they ‘cotton? to it, and their tears are converted into a broad laugh, as the — pros- pect rises from 15 to 424 per cent on the gross salvage. This you may deem a sorry picture ot oor human nature; but yet you will readily see that Funan nature is not any berter for livtng onan island, dieted on turtle soup, with a clergyman only preaching the gospel in the winter, and the Honorable the Judge of the Conrt, absent at Sa- ra oga. The wreckers are an invaluable uid to the com- merce of our country; and when. the affair of sal- vage is brought betore the court, where the doc- trine * that salvage 18 a compensation for services rendered,” should be the landmark of its views, both parties may hope to obtain something like an equitable value of service and due. But of ail errors, that of arbitration is the worst—where irre sponsible individuals are made the medium by which a valuable cargo, may be so dwindled into nothingness, that when the expenses are settled, the original owner finds himself iu debt. Another error I am sorry to say, anda very grievous one, is the facility of “surveys,” aud re- porting condemnation. The vessel changes hands, and the owner or insurance office is minus every thing. 3 Foi give you one or two instances which ma serve as examples. The French snip Louis XIV., ot Marseilles, with 2,080 bales of cotton, 131 bhds. tobacco, 600 sacks of coflee, 50 tous lead, We , was brought here from the reef, after having bees lightened of 500 bales cotton and 600 sacks cofiee. Two arbitrators were appointed to award salvage; the eue appointed by the wreckers was for giving 50 per cent; the other appointed by the interest re presenting ite ship, 40 per ceat. A captain of a vessel was called in as umpire, and with a freedom truly great gave 43 per cent gross. The schooner Ranger, Capt. Merihew, from Galveston, bound to Baluimore, was brought in here by a pilot, utter having got inside the reef, and at anchor, for which 29 per cent was awarded by the arbitrators. The vessel was hove down on one side, at a time when the merchants and laborers were at breakfast; the survey reported that it would cost $1,400 to. repair her, and then she would be worth $1,200, accord- ingly she was brougl.t to the hammer, and she was bought for $1,210; eight days alterward, with the repair of one dollar and fitty cents, she took her station up the reefaga wrecker, These you will consider pretty doings in a land of gospel truth; where the inference is, every man has learned bis morals from the Bible, and every man should be a bright example of Christian ex- cellence But, as I betore observed, things are indeed singular in this world—and tolerably singu lar on this island. An innovation has recently crept into businees among some of the merchants ot this place—which, say the least, presents re- markable features of perseverance, joined. to th: highest impudence. The old commercial assur ance of ‘consignments solicited and advances made,” are literally carried out, and if consign ments were to be had by solicitation, or obtained by the impertinent ‘advances made,” these wor thies would be full of money, asthey are of activi ty. It is truly amusing to see the pertinacity with which they attack a vessel on her arrival, aud even before. Boats are put in requisition, the vessel is boarded, and « very hurried salutation constitute. the introduction—‘Captain, a word with you,” says Dick—‘ at leisure Captain,” says Bill— “| shall Captain, when it meets your con- venience, be happy to have an interview wiih you,” says Diaphragm. ‘Your versel leaks Captain”—our house can accommodate you—‘‘do business to suit the times”—*‘ your wishes shall be attended to” tis really not safe to proceed on your voyage ”’-—"‘we give one half commissions, salvage and wharfage,”’ and thus the poor devil oi a captain, amid the distractions of an interrupted voyage, clewing up, coming to anchor, and the ankiety which he feels for his owners, makes his introduction to our little island. Happy spot! It the captain believes Dick, he is the most honest and valuable member of the community ; if he be- lieves Bill, all are rascals; and if he sides with Diaphragm, they all are a pack of rascals together —the forty thieves of Bagdad were the very pink of honesty compared with any body else: and as Dia- phragm quotes Vattel, and impreeses the captain with his legal knowledge, the chanceg are in favor of Diaphragm, Vattel & Co. You at once see, Mr. Bennett, by this most singular mode of pro- ceedings, captains, if not disgusted, are bewildered; and, from the liberal back-biting which these “consignment solicitors” indulge in, no very favor- able estimate is thus early made of the residents of the island. You will doubtless say,why are not these fellows hustled over the side, and treated with the con- tempt their impertinence merits? Jt might be a proper course did their sensibilities admit’of being wounded ; but Dick is indifferent to a kicking, and only deems himself a personage of consequence when under a thrashing. Diaphragm & Co. are used to be treated unceremoniously from the time, they made their acquaintance with the negre chiefs Ching-chung-haiee-boo, at Madagascar, as well a when they lef the brig in his pilgrimage aot St Thomas, unto the time the brig Virginia, Otis Randall, was stranded south of Cape Canaveral. — The whole inference then (if a vessel is condemn- ed after such tampering with the Captain) is un- favorable, and the most charitable conclusion is, that the Captain is very much of an ass to sacri- fice his own character, and the interests of his owners for the advantage of others. ‘This game has assumed a fearful character, and as you will doubtless see by the papers a protest of the mate and passengers of the schooner Pacific, March, master, owned at New Haven, by Atwater, Keq , (and which arrived here a few days since on her voyage to Franklin, Attakapas) against the captain and all others, against the condemnation ot the vessel, The supercargo was determined to pratect the interests of the cargo; and as the ves- sel’s condemnation would not be much, it was concluded to recommend her to proceed on her voyage. She left on the 12th, and after proceeding a short distance, Captain March and his crew forced the mate to return in the pilot boat. The mate will return in the R, W. Brown to New York. It seems strange that the interests of insu rance companies are not represented out here by # resident agent, and that they do not petition Con. gress to have some law passed by which an arbi tration board may bet appointed at Washington, embracing intelligence and character. The long absence of Judge Marvin is severely felt, and the public interest is suffering—hence the fa- cility for such occurrences as herewith de tailed The troth is, we suffer much here. Our preachers desert us in the sen von of ‘sickness—the dead are without the ord) nances of religion administered by the ehurch ; but they have no objection to spend the winter | among us, and preach, if paid for it.

Dear Sin— Nothing but the absorbing topic politice, is the order of the day among all classes in our city, and to increase the excitement, John Quincy Adams, as you have doubtlessly perceiyed, has contributed his quota of invective, truth and patriotism, to the furtherance of the party he so warmly espouses. It was a bitter one for the democrats last Monday evening. Their champion was most mercilessly castigated by “the old man eloquent,” and we should think when the philipic reaches the old Ro- man, the Hermitage will net be Jarge enough to hold him. If the heroof New Orleans does not im mediately reply, the cause ot the Polkites will sink {96 below par. The Locofecos, or Demo- crats, or whatever they are designated, are wincing under the lash, and to support their tottering fabric, are making extravagant bets upon the result of the election. I think they are too sensitive on the oc- casion—their party holds as many “good men and true” as the opposing one, and a bold heart, with a conscious feeling of right, will go far to win the battle.

Macready finishes next Moaday. Altogether the speculation has been amost miserable affair. He has, with the exception ot Miss Cushman, been wretchedly supported, the best of the others being Mr Ryder, who we all know is # fourth rate spe- cimen of English provincial actors. The “ fix. ings” of the stage are unworthy of a company o1 the poorest itmerants, and the peisonations of Macready thus show his trickery aud ari, which by the aid of splendid scemic auxiliaries, he other wise passes off for the creations of genius.

A most remarkable and extraordinary degree of religious excitement is now pervading a portion of the inhabitants of this rich and beautiful region. Several striking instances have occurred under my own observation, presenting in a clear, though most lamentable and truly heart-rending light, the boundless extent to which the superstitious feelings of human uature may be brought to exercise an influence over the happiness of mankind. In our neighborhood, the Millerite excitement has wrought the minds of many otherwise intelligent persons into a state of perieet phrensy, and in sume lostances the fanaticism has resulted in utter, complete and irreclanaable lunacy The case of Mr. Wm B. G***#******, formerly a worthy aod opulent tradesman in Falisington, commands the commisserauion of every one. He hes always enjoyed the esteem and respect of his neighbors, and but lately was carrying on a thriving business. A man ot much intelligence, virtuous and courteous, with a large aud interesting family, and surrounded by every comfort which the heart of man conld desire, the fanatical doctrines of “Pather Miller” entered his mind, ovesturned his reason, and in all probabiluy has destroyed every hope ot future sanity and worldly happiness. He sits allday long with the Scriptures opened before him, and in every ambiguous sentence discovers, to lis mind, some hidden, mysterious and terrible meaning. The twenty-third of the present month he considers will be the last day of creation, and he makes no eflort for sustenance beyond that pe- riod, Hs business 18 utterly neglected, his mone and goods he treely gives to every “ believer,” indeed, nothing beyond the immediate neceseines of his farnily does he pretend to retain. ‘The door of his warehouse he has placed a placard upon, of this import:— {9©000000000000000 000000000000000000000 CLOSED YOR THE KING OF KINGS. 000000000000000000000000000000000000000 There are many other cases of a8 lamentable a nature as the above, both in this village and in the neighborhood around. Several poor families have relinquished all labor, and are supported. by the more wealthy of the same belief. It rea ver does resume her seat amongst aaeet ot jy it will require years of toil to regain all they squahder under their present hallucimauion. This exeite- ment has prevented hundreds trom taking part in the late election, of which the greatly diminished vote in several townships is the evidence. Strange that after Futher Miller has made so many false prophecies, there should be so many persons of urdinary sense giving the slightest credence to any of his predictions at this period. But hke almost every other ridicujous theory, it appears to gain the more converts Im proportion to the amount ot absurdity that 18s mixed up with it. Should not some legislative action be taken upon this subject 2? Should the ignorant expounders of gospel incongruities, who travel about severing the tenderest tes of domestic affection, excitung the superstitious feelings of the people, raising up phan- toms of terror and agony to their imaginations, destroying their intelleets, and causing them to equauder their property upon this most preposterous tantasy—should they be more exempt Irom the power of the law than the paltry swindler who merely robs you of your money, but lets your MIND alone 1 Something should be done quickly, or there will soon be no detining limits to the pre gress of this mora! epidemic.

To the Clergy—A Pastor wanted, good Salary,and Plenty of Pickings James Gorvon Bennerr, Esq.— Being in want of a Pastor, in the Eighty-first Presbyterian Church, in the city of Utica, wehave thought proper to make your widely circulated and valuable paper, the vehicle through which to make known our wants. No clergyman, however, need apply for the situation, unless he can contorm to the following rules, vizi— He must not preach against lying, a8 many of us are doctors, lawyers, and merchants, and cannot well dispense with that article, or perquisite in the line of our business. He must never take any of the commandments for his text, especially the seventh, lest it affect some of the fathers in the church, or their chil- drea. ‘ He must never preach against extortion or usury, as meny of the members of .his church are rien and want io Jend their money to the best possible advantage. He must pass over ail the fashionable follies and vices of the day, and preach to us stnooth things. He must not visit the poor, sick or well, nor supply their wants, either temperal or spiritual. e must confine his visits to the wealthy part of the congregation, and never speak against dancing, but attend all fashionable parties of pleasure. He must confioe himsell to preach onthe sabbath enly, and not hold two or three evening meetings a week, thereby drawing our clerks and servants from our employment. . He must hold no monthly meetings to catechize and instruct our children, or the children of the poor, in religious or moral duties, as our former minister has made it his pleasure and duty to do— implanting on their young and tender minds, ideas of God and his attributes,that time can nevererase. He must ailow the doors of the church to be opened at all times to the abolitionists and all other popular humbugs of the dey, so that we may enjoy variety, for * variety is the epice of lite.” Since our present pestor has officiated, the poor has had the gospel preached to them in its purity, and great accessions have beew made tothe church from that class of people. But as we are now de- nominated the fiddling and dancing party, since we opened our doors to Ole Bull, we intend to carry out all things in the spirit of hilarity, and, if possi- ble, to fill the church m time to come, with those possessing sufficient taste to appreciate the fine tones of our organ. : Our present pastor leaves on the firstof Novem- ber, after which wee be ready to receive pro- posals from any candidate that wishes to fill his place, conforming to the above specifications, Xc.
