The wind continued to blow almost hurricane until daylight, when the captain discovered that he was of Crane Neck-but with daylight there was nO abatement of the violence of the gale, and if the Connecticut had not been remarkably strong built vessel, she must certainly have fOuhdeTed or gone to pieces. Every fourth or fifth sea heaved over her head hOgheads of water, great portion of which, owing to the intense cold, became mass of ice on the fore part of the vessel The passengers; (abOut 60 in number) felt all the dreadful sensations such situation Is like ly to inspires and but for the Rrmness evinced by the captain, many would have completely Responded. Ofthe few who ventered to re- main any time on deck, several were washed off their legs, and one tremendous sea carried away the star-bOard quarter boat. Until sun down on Saturday the wind did not in the least abate, and such was the depth to which the anchors had been driven. that it took the whole crew more than six hours to raise them. Sufficient praise cannot be given to the cap- tain, pilot, and the whole of the crew, for their indrfatigable exertions during the whole time: the engineers never left their post, steam being kept up all the while and the pi- lot had one of his hands badly frost bitten.

 TNe Ne.c Republics.-Tt is a remarkable fact, that within the last two years, every one ofthc Spanish American Republics. with the l exception of Chill, has been the scene either of Revolution, InsurreCtion or Civil War; In Mex icO and Buenos Ayres, complete rev. olution has been effected by force Nf arms.-- In ColOmSia, to say nothing of the immense political excitement, formidable conspiracy has been developed, which had for It's object the same result, by taking the life of Bnlivar. Guatemala has been distracted by a civil law. Peru, after being itself revolutionized by the aid of Columbian troops, has extended the same favor to the Republic of Bolivia, by sending an army and deposing its President.

 Religion.-by Mackeasie.--" He who would undermine those foundations upon which the fabric of our future hope is rear- ed, seeks to beat down that column which supports the feeblencss of humani,y;-let him but think moment, and his heart will arrest the cruelty of his purpose. Would he pluck its little treasure from the bosom of poverty ?-Would he wrest it's crutch from the hand of age, and remove from the eye of affliction the only solace of it's woe!
