 broken relic of what was the beautiful packet Home The shore was lined with bodies constantly coming up. All hands were en- gagged in collecting them together. The sur- Vivors in groups were nearly naked, and famished and exhausted. The few inhabit- ants appeared very friendly, but the many trunks that came on shore were empty, and whether they had been robbed or not was not known. '.e-a asata 4-r a A. c.

 The Home was owned by J. P. Allaire, Esq. of this city, and cost over SlOG,OOO.-- She was insured for only $S50OO. She had very little cargo on board. She was 225 feet long, and the weight of her machinery was probably too great a-midship; besides which, the whole power of her engine was principaE ly concentrated in one spot, and not distribu- ted in three parts like the masts of a ship when under way.-N., Y.

 The End of the Gold Hun,bug at Washing ton.-Members. of Congress received their mileage and per diem at Washington, OH Monday last, in District Bank paper, Virgin ia notes and Merican silver. Not only all the American gold but even the American silver run short, and the Treasury Department was finally reduced to the pitiful necessity of buv- sng Mertcan dollars to pay off the American Congress. If rumor is true, even a large amount of the specie paid to the members was borrowed from some of the banks in the District. Many of the members received their pay voluntarily in bank notes, and thus diminished the amount of specie required of the Treasury Department. But such as have been disposed to speculate could sell South western paper at 15 or 20 per cent below par, and gold or Mexican dollars at six or seven per cent premium, thus making per diem allowance of eight dollars, into ten dollars, or twenty-five per cent premium. The la- boring men in the U. s. Ship Yards, are paid in paper and shin- plasters. What a comment upon MT. Woodbury's printed circular to the members of Congress, promising to pay them in gold or silver.-N. Y. Express. 5. lt NEw-O ORLEANS, Oct. 9th. ;.

 PIRATES IN THE GULr.-Capt. Smith, of the brig Margaret, from New York, reports that on the 2d inst Ohe Island of Cuba in sight) was chased all day by a piratical schooner, apparently Spanish, with crew of 70 or so men. At night the schooner closed with the brig and ordered her to heave to, which not being compiled with, preparation was made to fire, into the M. Capt. s. seeing the matches lit and the long pivot gun loaded and brought to bear on the brig, rounded to. A boat was lowered from the schooner, arms of different kinds placed in it, and filled with men, started for the Margaret. !y-

 heavy sea was running at the time and the wind blowing very fresh. When the boat was midway between the schooner and the brig, she capsized, seeing which Capt. s. immediately made all sail and stood off be- fore the wind; after some delay the pirate started in pursuit ofthc M. During the chace, saw a brig on the wind showing light, and soon after lost sight of the schooner. Next day on the Tortugas bank saw the schooner at anchor she got under way again and made chace for the M. night coming on, the M. put out her lights, hauled close to the wind for six hours and then stood on her course. In the morning saw nothing of the Pirate. < }. paT

 Ourcity yesterday presented gay and live ly appearance. Every one, man, woman and child, moved with more elasticity. and looked more like animated beings of earth, than we have seen them for the last four or five months of a hot, sul,ry and pestiferous season. The bracing air that has succeeded the late disastrous gale, purifies the atmos- phere, revives the almost exhausted strength of our citizens, and brings back to us many a face that has been summering on the shores of Pontchartrain, St. Louis Bay, Christian, Pascagoula, and even to the sandy banks of Pensacola.-N. o.
