Kite vessel was densely crowded with pttsaenge .. and for u tiIrio;the excitement among them was intense. However, in less tltenutn hour. the flames were extinguished and quiet was restored. The boilers sustained so tnuch injury by the lire, that but slow progress was made thereafter. ‘ Steamship Union. bound from San Francisco to Pannnta, with 300 passengers and $300,000 in gold dust, was totally wrecked the fottrth day out, on St. Unitttlrin‘s Reef.

CIOPI ttr ‘rill Urrta-In S1'.s1'r:s.—'I‘here has seldom been so general a failure of crops in the Southern States. as the present season. In Maryland. one of the great corn-growing States, the drought of June still prevnils. and there is no hope of ti full, or even ordinary crop nfcnrn or outs. The wheat has been harvested . and is said to be the best in point of quality and qunntity that has been produced for many venrn. Tobacco has formed an impnrttiut sttipln of the uzricultttre of this State; but the present crop. it is said. will be a total failure.

Virrzinin, too, has suffered greatly. The grr-at staple ofthe cust- ern divison of tire State (tobacco) now presents rt very poor pros- pect; and. indeed. it is stated, that nntty fields lntve been entirely llINIl'ItI0flPtI, in consequence of the entire prostrntion of the plants by drought. The corn crop is very poor. nnd it is hardly prol able that nuflicisnt will be produced f'or home corisurrrption.-In the west- ern part ofthe Stntc, the wheat crop has been very large, and the out crop was larger than ever before known.

Tlte cotton crop of South Carolina ltrts been seriously injured by the drought. though in Beaufort, and two or three other districts, rt titnely rain brought forward a great deal that was supposed lost. The rice crop—thc principal article of food raised in the Stttte—it is said, will not be a hrtll'a crop. This. too. has been affected by tlte drought, and the low lauds have suffered severely throughout the State. In the western part of the State the prospect for cotton and corn is better, thouglt it is impossible that ll good crop can be raised.

There is very little said nhout tbri crops by the press of Georgia. whicb.\ve are led to infer. nugurs f.tvourrtbly to It good prospect for cotton. There has been it drought of considerable duration. but it did not so seriously affect the crops as in some ofthe other States.
