We learn from captain Jepson, of the schr. Mo-
kina, from the Cape de Verde Islands, that the
stern boat of the i'll fated steamer President, and
also several water casks, bearing her name, had
been picked up and carried into ST. Nicholas, one
of the said islands. Capt. Jepson did not himself
see these interesting relics Gas he sailed from an
other island, Bonavista,) but was assured OF the
fact by a respectable English gentleman who had
seen them The latitude and longitude where
they were picked up, we are unable to state. The
boat, as well as the water casks, had the name
sPresident" upon it. This is the first trace which
has vet been discovered of the wreck OF that noble
steamer.


The Cape de Verbs are situated about N lat.
is. and w lon. 49, If the casks and boat were
picked up any where in that vicinity, they must
have drfted great distance from the place where
the steamer foundered which indeed was to be
expected It's generally supposed that she went
down during the gale which occurred on the second
or third day after her departure from this port.


In connection with the above, we publish the
following. from the log-book of the brig Poultney,
