: 2 NEW YORK HERALD, a @ur Havana Havana, Sept. 30, 1856. Numerous Disasters ot Sea—Wreck of an American Schooner—Sugerings of the Crew—Thair Gallant Con- duct in their Dificutties—Kzertions made by them to Save (he Captain's Wife—Kind Treatment of the Ship- wrecked Mariners by the Cubans, dc, de. ‘The accidents at sea have been very numerous of late. Reports are daily reaching os of casualties and disasters sweeping away lives and property not equalled in any previous record of ocean calamities. The fate of the American brig Wild Pigeon, from Pensacola bound to Ha- vana, is something sad—not a soul saved, and no actual knowledge of the time or place where she was lost; but tt was probably on the 50th of August, off Cape S!, Blas, where the bottom of a vessel has been seen, whica is wwpposed to be the ili fated brig; and ai last wo learn the fate of the British West India Royal mail steamer Tay, ‘wreeked at Cape Rojo, om her voyage from Vera Cruz to ‘Fampico on the 29th of August—the vessel a total loss, tog:ther with three lives. Nothing was saved belonging te the passengers or the boat, and but for the prompt as sietance rendered by the Mexican war steamer Iturbide, many lives must have been sacrificed. By English gen- Memen I bear this loss spoken of as occurring from gross oarelessness on the part of the navigators of the vessel, and the captain, who was on deck at the time, just at the dawn of day, running but three miles distant from the Coast. ‘We have this week, also, the story of a shipwreck on the south side of Cuba, which | give as itis related by Daptain Thomas, and conforming in tacts to the protest made and filed in the United States Consulate. The Ame- rican schooner Mary W., Coneider Thomas, Jr., master, of San Francisco, 160 ons burthen, was lost ibirty miles 0 the eastward of Cape Corrientes, on the night of the 29th of August. The wife of the captain was on board; the mate, Charles Bianchard; seamen, William Jounsoa, Thomas Lyonr, John Nuthall, Coarles Welch, Julio Ante- geerra, and Francis MoCleliand, a destitute seaman, pw on the schooner by the United States Con- wul at Rio Janiero. The schooner was laden with 1.524 bags of coffee, and sailed from Rio for New Orleans the 16th of July.

The Emperor, it bas been for some time krown, hay been induced with the greatest difficulty 10 give his ac- quiescence tm the present measures against Naples. Then why not, it willfee asked, have been more cautious at the recert Conference? It wes Count Walewsky, his own specially appointed Minister, who broached the subject at the Con‘erence, and his language was, if anything, more decided than Lord Clarondon’s, But from a private source which }am not at liberty to particularise, but waich I know to be of excellent sutaority, I have heard that Lord Paimersion made it a sine qua ncn of his adhesion to the Emperor’s views respecting the conditions of peace, ‘and what was considered e ally important, or nearly a0, the place where the Conferences should be held, that his (Lord Paimerston’s) views concerning Naples should not only be formally registered, but should be initiated in » manper £0 forcible as to admit no mistake by the repre- sentatives of Russia or by the Emperor’s Mia'ster of Foreign Affairs. We bave seen how faithfully the Emperor fultilled that epgagemeut. Then why does be halt now? it is because the advices which reach him from Nap'es indi- cate such a determination in the party of Murat to hoist the standard of rebellion the moment the allied fleets are “im right, aud becavse he hears at the same time that the instant this party begins to make head the revolutionary flame of Italy will burst forth in @ general contlagration. The more Napoleon looks at the situation, the greater in the apparent ¢i- Jem H not arsigt the Muratists; it is equally tmpoesibie for him to act against them.

Toavold muBh cruelty and injustice the Convention passed a law to prevent forcible recruiting of the army, and to set at liberty those recruits already taken.

Castilla has banished a priest ia comsequence of seve- ral articles published ina yas paper about the con dition of Peru. As an excuse and to blind the church, he sent the priest as chaplain on @ man-of-war that was about to put tosea.

His fellow priests are waking bitter complaints in the ppera, but the Arch- bishop seems to wink at such injustice. ‘Two years ago one of Castilla’s revolutionary princi- ples was ‘‘liberty of tho prees.”’ But his practice does not seem to be in conformity with his theory. Ei Heraldo de Lima has been bold enough to express its sentimects, and ditors have e&perienced continual punishment, and recently Castilla verbally ordered the paper to be suspended, sending the police to take possession of the type and the Intendente to seal the doors. This was done in consequence of several editorials at‘acking joverpment, and which he has caused to be denounced y the ey General. Castilla desired the editors to appear bet! him, and svupplicate in person fora license 10 contin paper. But they did not favor his Jency with an interview, suspecting it might be a strata gem to get possession of their persons. He fined them $£00, and ordered the pioeecution of the accusation; they followed the examplo of their predecessor, seeking satety m fight What would be tho fate of & President of tue United States were he to demolish a newspaper because its editore Were not advocates and admirers of his public conduct?

On inquiring of some of the stockholders, largely interested in the Academy, I received the following statements, which if true—and | conclude they must be—should be known:— 1, Mr. Maretzek has always been willing and ready to pay the sum of $24,000 rent for the Academy of Music. { 2. Nor has there been any diiliculty about stockholders baving their 200 seats at every performance. 8, The difficulty has consisted solely in the demand of the committee for tne best seats. The empressario did ob- ject to this, tor two reasons, one was that it deprived him of the power of accommodating his best patrons with the choicest and another was that it mounted, efered to give them the 200 or 260 tickets of admission to the Academy for every one of his performances; and by the payment of fifty cents extra, each could have been made a reserved seat, or been per- manent!y located, ‘Bo 1t became only a rhatter of dollars and cents, and on avery a ane atthat, BA ae Max aes ear give from fifty to se ve or more opera j Ty pet ty EE teat he wanted, a 5 altho manager would doubtless compromised the whole mat- ter with any stockholder for $25. Now what a bagatelle for each stockholder, and yet bow ‘mportant an item for Max. And yet, for this paltry individual sam, the people of your great metropolis are deprived of the luxury of the jar Italian Opera.
