The steamer Great Wostern, which ran aground on Saturday evening, at Flat Beach, about seven and one- half miles east of Fire Island Light, bas broken in two amidships, She Hes within fifty yards of the shore, and has been stripped of her running, gear by tho wreckers, The crew camo yesterday morning to this city, Captain Wyndham, who is ill, has been removed. to one of the United States life-saving stations a mile from the wreck. About two-thirds of tho cargo, con- sisting mainly of oranges and lemons trom Messina and Palermo, will be saved. No opportunity was afforded yesterday to commence removing the cargo; but as the wreck can be reached by vehicles atlow water, it is ex- pected that as soon as the weather becomes fair the fruit, &c., will bo carried across tho beach and brought to this city. *, The Great Western went ashore about 100 yards from tho wreck of the Vicksburg, a Southern steamer which was lost abouta year ago. A fleet of about fifty small boats are gathered about the vicinity of the wreck, watching for wails, Should a strong breeze arise and blow toward the shore for a little time, the vessel will doubtless go to pieces and give tho beach combers a windfall. INSURANCE, The Groat Western was insured for her estimated value of $175,000 in England. Mr. ©. D. Mor; agent of the line, is consignee of fruit, sulphur, rags and sumach to the value of about $60,000, and Messrs. Phelps & Co. have fruit to about au equal value. All the cargo is said to be insured in this city, Itis likely the fruit will be saved with but small loss, as will also the rags, but the sulphur and sumach will be badly in- jured. The wrecking steamer Relicf is lying close to the wreck, waiting for better weather to aid in securing the cargo. ARPIVAL OP TH CREW IX THIS CITY. Yesterday some of the officers and all of the crew of the wrecked steamship Great Western arrived in this city, and immediately went on beard the steamship Cornwall, of the same line. Chief Officer Fox, Mr. Lily, first engineer, and a waiter remain near the scene of the wreck, In conversation with Captain Lamper, of the Cornwall, atter he had conversed with the offices and crew respecting the loss of the Great Western, ho said to a Hxeatp reporter “When ehe struck Captain Wyndbam was on the bridge. The woather was very thick, fo much so that the shore could not be seen, I know Captain Wyndham intimately, for he served under me fortwo years as chief officer, and a more sober, painstuking and careful offcer | never knew. Belore the vessel stmuck soundings wero taken, and she was going ata reduced rate of speed. The Great Western was a very strong vessel. 1 was on her for two years, and remember once when going up to Bristol a pilot ran ber on the rocks, but she did not leal Subsequently I saw the imdentation in the Intes, ich had beer raised over a foot, and if they had not been of the best iron they ‘would have broken under the pressure. Sho has been a very lucky vessel, and witn the exception of a trifling accident to her muchinery, which happened in this port about a year ago, and the grounding just mentioned, she has had no misadventure. 1 feel certain that the loss of the vossel was the result of an error of judgment, and not owing to carelessness, The weather, you must re- member, was terrible, aod the Fire Ircland light could not be seen. SEIZURE OF A SISTER STRAMSIIIP, Last evening the Cornwall, lying at the foot of Bur- ling slip, East River, was libelied for the eum of $20,000. ‘The Norwegian bark Daphne, on her voyage from Baltimore (which port she left on the 18th inst.) to Marseilles, France, was run into on the 23d Inst, 180 miles off Sandy Hook, by the steamship Great Western, sister to the Cornwall. She was soriously damaged on the starboard side abaft the main rigging, | her planks being broken from the rail to the water line, Captain Nielsen, of the damaged bark, all vhat the Great Western was entirely to blame for collision. The seizure of the Cornwall was effected by United States Peputy Marshal Ferst, on ordor granted by Judge Benedict in the suit of Mr. Jens Thomassen, of Brooklyn. The Cornwall will not be allowed to pro- cced to her port of destination, namely, Bristol, ee land, until ber owners bave given bonds in the matter atissue, She has now got ali her cargo on board, and will probably sail to morrow. WHAT CAPTAIN SAMPER SATS, Captain Samper, of the Cornwall, said toa Henanp reporter:—'‘l suppose they have seized my vessel be- cause they think that now the Groat Western is a wreck they can get nothing outof her, Each of our steamers—the Somerset, the Arragon, this vessel and the til fated Great Western—has different owners, and 4 separate accounting 18 made in Bristol of ench ves- sel’s gains or losses. The vessels all belong, bow- ever, {0 the same line, namely, the Groat Western Steamboat Lin: For five yoars none of the ships have had any collision. Tisok upon the dam- claimed by the Daphne's owners as exorbitant, These Norwegian eratt are of the cheapest constr tion, and I believe thoy could buy anew ship im Nor- way for less than the sum that is now being claimed from our line. Tho first officer of the Great Western boarded the bark after the collimon and tound that she was making no water. Had the damage bee: she would never have lived throngh Saturd: NOT WRECKED. A three-masted ship, which had been forced to an- chor by stress of weather off Amityville, was gotten off and towed toward the city at noon yesteraay, ECHOES OF THE STORM.

Soon after arriving at the villa wo were politely ushered into a long corridor by a fine looking young man, who, we learned afterward, was the son of General Garibaldi. We waited but a moment and then were asked to walk into a room something like a large sitting room, which had been converted into a bed- room for a convalescent, In the contre of the room stood a long table, at the further end of which sat Garibaldi, dressed ina loose gray jacket, white flannel cloak thrown over one shoulder and hia becoming black embroidered bes gl Although he didn’s rise, his genial countenance told us at once we were welcome, Wo were surprised when we reachod bis side to shake hands thathe didn’t rise, but immedt- ately observed that he was an invalid, suffering appar- ently trom the effects of rheumatic fever, or perhaps from old wounds. Ie was, however, very cheerful, ‘and seemed to possess the same brave spirit by which he was animated when fichting the battles for the de- livery of bis country. His eyes brightened when saw wo were Americans and he seemed proud to say am an American citizen too.’? He said he knew Bos- ton, New York, Philadelphia, Washington ana tha Potomac. One of our party remarked to him, as he took his hand in parting, that he congratulated him upon the progress of freedom in Italy, with which that hand had so much to do. Garibaldi modestly repled that he had only done bis duty. We took leave of bim, feeling that we had seon a nobic, unselfish patriot—one of the few remarkable men of the age. CANINE AFFECTION. {From the Montreal Star.) Two dogs, bearing the names of Tom and Jerry, might have been seen for some months past roaming around tne streets. They were always in company and were regular vagabonds, as they belonged to no one and wero not particular as to their lodgings or food, ono night sleeping under the steps of some of our up- town residences and the mext under those of the House of Refuge. Some gentlemen procured collars for them, upon which were engraved their names and verses indicative of their character. They were known by everybody and were intld and inoffensive, But some malicious wretch poisoned Jerry this morning and Tom will have to roam alone, The poor brute might have been seen this morning caressing the dead ly of his comrade and uttering the most piteout cries, which shows that thero is affection even it brutes, A MYSTERIOUS POST OFFICE CASE.
