Mallory who was at the helm, and the disaster occurred in the man. ner that has been mentioned. Capt. Bun- ker immediately sent his boat, and several men, intending to tow the schooner to land but she filled so fast they had only time to save few articles before she went down. He then left the boat with Capt Mallory to enable him to pick up whatever might float from the wreck. Not the slightest blame for the disaster could be attached to Capt. Bunker, who did every thing he could to avoid it.--D0iLy Ado.
