Maj. Gen. Scott.?We yesterday had the plea sure (says the Journal of Commerce) of an inter view with this veteran chief.

Full Particulars of the Terrible Disaster?Two Hundred and Fifty Bodies Recovered. By the last mails we received full details of the loss of the Ship Powhatan, Captain .Meyers, (of Baltimore,) and crew, with 311 passengers, on Long Beach, on the night of the 10th inst. We subjoin the following: iStatement of Captain Jennings?Interesting In terview with Capt. Meyers during the Gale. On Saturday the wind blew with great violence from the north-east. The sea rail very high all day, and I supposed that there would be many a wreck along the coast from Bernegatto Egg Harbcr. On Sunday morning I observed a ship of about 960 tons thumping on the bar about one hundred yards from the shore. I immediately sent those men who were with me to the government station house, distant about six miles, for the life car, mortar, and other shipwrecking apparatus. During the day the ship's deck was crowded with passen gers, and when the surf ran out 1 could get within seventy yards of the vessel, which I found out to be the ship Powhatan, of Baltimore, Capt. Meyers, on her voyage from Havre to New York. The surf ran mountain high. Indeed I never saw such a sea in my life. Several persons began now to be swept overboard. Captain Meyers hailed me through his speaking trumpet and asked me for God's sake to try and save some of those who might happen to wash a shore. I told him I hud went down the beach to where the bodies came on shore, but found them all dead, and it was no use trying to save them, as they were all drowued before they got half way lo the beach. Caplain Meyers asked me just before this if any aid could soon reach them. 1 said 1 hoped so, as four men had been sent d>wn to the government station for that purpose. Captain Meyers again called out to me to save any of those who might wash ashore alive. 1 re plied that I would see lo it, and went down about two hundred yards on the beach where the bodies were being washed on shore. Women and chil dren came on shore first. The vessel then lay E. S. E., and had shifted from the N. E. Her foremost was gone at this time. I suppose she lost it before she struck on the bar. About 5 o'clock. P. M., on Sunday, the seip keeled over to the windward fiom the shore. The sea then, of course, made a clean breach over her, and passengers began to be washed off in great numbers. The sea running mountains high; and completely hiding the vessel from my liew, 1 could no longer h-jld any communication with the captain. I never saw him since. The main and mizzen masts soon went by the board, and bodies appeared floating in the surf in great numbers. Some twenty five dead bodies, mostly women, came on shore about a mile south of the wreck. About djik the ren rose to a great height, and one large wave, fully u bundled feet high, struck the unfortunate vessel, and in one momenL the hull wis scattered into fragments, wh.ch tossed wildly through the surf. The shrieks of thS drown ing creatures were melancholy indeed, butl could lender them no aid, as the sea ran so high 1 could not get near the unfortunate people. Ia a few moments all disappeared beneath the surface of the water, except a few fragments of the wreck. Never did I see sucn a sight in my Itfe. Never do I remember witnessing such a dreadful gale or such a high running sea. In many places it made Com |iVte breaches over the island, and carried, no doubt, many a poor fellow into the bay behind it. Ttfc men got back the next morning from the government station-house with a life boat, inorta.' and the usual wrecking apparatus, but it was too late, as all on b ard the ill-Jated Powhatan ha i per ished?Iot one remaining to (Ac fearful tale. None of the crew or officers of the vessel came ashore, which is rather a c rious fact; but 1 think will be found some ten or fifteen miles further down the beach. The luggage and portion of the wreck lay scat tered alohg Ihe bench. I have collected oil the valuables I could, and have found some money ($80) in a money belt belonging to some of the passengers. The friends and relatives oT the ilecnsed can have all the necessary information re i garding the effects of those drowned, by inquiring for me at Manabawin, New Jersey. Capt. Edward Jrmnings, Wreck Master. N A MRS OK TIIK l.OUT AT TRKSKNT ASCKRTAINKD. The correspondent of the New Yoik Herald, who visited the spot where the baggage and por tions of the wreck, which had floated ashore, were being piled up, says: About thirty tiunks with goods in them lav piled up together, among them several of the seamen's chests and the trunk of the first mate, Ambiose Kingsland Rogers, in which were several letters, pieces of poetry, a daguerreotype likeness, a lock of a lady's hair, and a number of shirts, under ! clothing, coals and pantaloons. j All along the shore for ten miles was scattered the remnants of the chests apd trunks of the pas seng* rs, many of them having names inrcribed on the lids and sides. Feather beds, cooking utensils, tmply casks and pieces of the vessel, were to be seen on every side. Letters ol the dead were scattered here and there, and bibles atul prayer i books lay glistening in the sun, the whole desola I lion presenting a melancholy and heart rending scene. Prom various papers collected and from the inscriptions on the baggage, we arc enabled to give the following nnmes of these who were on board the ill-fated ship at the time of her destruc tion: Crew.?

Y i a hair trunk, with the following directions: "Ce coffre appartient a Gcorg Mitz, qui voyage pour I'Amenque." A letter dated Absecom, April 20, says:? "One of the women found was aLout 28 ye: rs of age, of handsome features, and apparently an American. The clothing of another of the vic tims. about 20 years of age, vhowed her to beloi.g to the wealthy class of Germans. She was a beaulfiul looking creature, even as st.e lay in death. On her lingers she wore two rings?one plain and the other having^a heart attached to it. They we e marked 'P. S.' and 'B. S.' 1854. Among the bodies is a man who was apparently one of the officers of the vessel. About fifty bodies have been taken to Smithvjlle for interment. Most of the people litre are afraid to touch them, which leaves the work for a few to perform. A number of the women and children washed ashore had nothing ou but the r uight clothes. One interesting little girl, about It years of age, was in her bare feet; her right eye w?s knocked out, and the right side of her face was black and blue. A little boy, about eight years o! age, came alongside of her. His face was swol len to double its natural size. A man, apparent ly a sailor, who came on shore at the same tiu.e, had his skull broken. The bodies had the appear ance of having been dashed against the wreck. A report from Little Egg Harbor states that a German was picked up there alive. He has been delirious-evct since, and of course we caniiotget any information from him. We have just receiv ed a report that the captain and mate of the Powhatan have beetisa\ed on Long Beach. Seve ral of the dead bodies on Brigantine Beach are- re ported "to have been robbed." The Baltimore Sun slates that a despatch re ceived in that city stales that 280 bodies have washed aslu re. Several of them were found 10 and 12 iniles from the scene of disaster. The Powhatan, it is believed, had no cargo on board. She was owned in Baltimore, jointly, l.y Messrs. Alexander Brown & Sons, and Capt. Wm. Graham, and was insured, it is said, in that city and Philadelphia. Two large pieces of her hull lie oil the beach, also, a large por-ion of her waist, and the starboard side?of her quarter, in which is lodged an iron tank thai futed iu her run. Some of the ship's papers came ashore in the Captain's desk, and were sent on by the resident magistrate, signed Peckworth, to the consignees in N. York. She was loaded with iron for ballast, which is the reason probably why her bottom has not come ashore. ? Extracts from late Foreign Files. Ureal Britain. In the [louse of Lords, on the evening of April 7, the Earl of Aberdeen, replying to a question pul to him liy the Earl of Shaftesbury, announced that the 26th instant had been appointed as a day of national humiliation and prayer in consequence of war. In the House of Lords, April 6th, in answer to a question of Lord Malmesbury respecting the ope rations of thee mbined fleet in the Black Sea, the Earl of Clarendon said:?i cannot agree with the noble carl in thinking that our fleet is liable to be exposed to lairobluqu', or any obloquy at all, for 1 believe that it will turn out that since the noii fica'ion to which allusion has been made by my noble friend, thb Russian fleet lias not been seen ill ti e Ul.tck Sen at all?(cheers ) According to all the information which the government has re ceivtd since that time, none of the Russian fleet has entered the Black Sea, and therefore I consid er that the object of the government had in view when it gave directions that the Russian fleet should be confined within Sevastopol, has been fully obtained?(cheers.) * * ? With rrspect to the particular question which my noble friend has asked me with regard to the ships, which, it is alleged, have gone out from Se vastopol, and conveyed troops to Varna and to Cir cassia, I can only repeat to him what 1 said the other night?namely, that we have no official knowledge at all of the fact, and snch knowledge as we have induces us to be ieve that no such cir cumstance has occurred?(cheers.) It has been alleged that the first information which was eivtn of these Russian shi> s having taken out troops was by an English ship?an English frigate.'too ?but what does' the real fact turn out to be?? Why, that the only news that has been received at Constantinople of the kind was brought by the master of a Bremen vessel, who staled that sever al Russian ships had gon-t out from Sevastopol and landed troops at the portion of the coast indi cated. On the receipt of this informalim, Sir Ed ward Lyons went to Constantinople, saw the mas ter of the Bremen vessel, and instituted an inquiry, the result of which was, that the report turned out to le untrue. On the evening of the Gth inst., a banquet of more than ordinary magnificence was given at the London Tavern to the Earl of Elgin, preparatory to his return to resume the government of Canada. Ti e chair was taken by Lord J. Russell, and a moni! those present were Mr. Buchanan, the American ?.inister; Lord Ashburton; the Earl of EUesmore; the Chief Justice of Lower Canada; the Hon. P. Hincki; Sir Henry Lytton Bulwer, and other distinguished gentlemen. In his speech, proposing the health of Lord Elg n, Lord John Kuasell said? 1 do not wish to trench upon any great political question; but still I may be permitted to s~y, with regard to myself, that I am one of those who have coutinuully agreed with the Governor General ill the policy he has pursued. 1 am not afraid or ashamed of avowing that conformity of opinion ; anil 1 only hope that in future times, whatever may be the fate of that magnificent province, whether it shall wish to remain connected Willi us in loyality to the same soverei. n. or whether other views may actuate the majority of the population, the friendly feel-ngs that have hitherto subsisted between the people of the Uni'ed Kingdom and the people of Canada may be maintained, and that men like the Earl of Elgin may always be found ready to govern them with sucb temper and such skill as hitherto distinguished thatuoble Earl's ad ministration. X trust that whatever may be the tarn of events, the people of Canada my be either I he most attached of our fellow subjects, or at least the fumest of our fliendi. (Cheers.) The Karl of Elgin replied byan eloquent speech, in conclusion of which he said: I will only add n word or two wi!h Tegard to the sympathy of theUnited States of America lor Can ada. The sympathy of the United Slates is the sympathy of a noble and higb-minded people and government?n sympothy toward n youthful and kindred people, who are endeavoring, with steps not so unequal ns many persons imagine, to march side by side with them in the crreer of.moral and material improvement. (Cheers.) The Earl of Ellesmere having proposidihe health of the American Minister, Mr. Buchanan replied: My Lords and Gentieinen?In the name of my conntrymen, I thank you most cordially for the kind sentiment which you have proposed in favor of my country and-myself as its representative; and my gratitude is due this large and distinguish ed company for the enthusiasm with \yhich that sentiment has been leceived. This honor will be fully appreciated on the other side of the Atlantic. If my countrymen themselves could have selected the individual by whom such gracious and kind words should be spoken, I am persnuded their choice would have fallen u'ponthe noble Ecrl.? He has been among us?he has seen us at home, and has been To our virtue* very kiml. And to our limits a Utile blind. There are thousands on the other sideoMhe At lantic \\ bo will respond to the universal sentiment of approbation ill this country, when they learn that his sovereign has eouferred upon him one of the. highest, and proudtsl inorks of distinction which it was in her power to bestow. May be long live to enjoy it! Certain I ant that the pen alty denounced by the raotto of the garter will never reach either his head or his heart. In allusion Jo Lord Eldin. Mi1. Buchanan pro ceeded to say?would to Heaven we had such governors-general i:i all the European colonies in the vicinity of the United States. His lordship has solved one of the most difficult problems of statesmanship. He has been able*, successfully and satisfactorily to administer amidst many diffi culties, a colonial government over a free people. I shall, with your permission, advert to one other topic before f take iny seat. I cannot suffer this occasion to pass without expressing my- gratification with herMajestv's wife and liberal declaration in favor of ueutral com mercial rights, during the existing war. It is worthy of the civilization of the 19th oentury, and worthy of the best constitutional sovereign who has ever set upon the proud and powerful throne of Great Britain. The time will arrive when war against priyale property upon the ocean will lie entirely proscribed by civilized nations, as it has already been upon land;and when thegn'.lautcommandersof the na vies of the world will esteem it as great a disgrace to rob a "peaceful merchant xessel upon the seas or the general of on army would now ilo to plun der the private house of an unoffending citizen.? (Loud chetrs.) The Treaty with Turkey. The following is iu substance the treaty just concluded between the sovereigns of England, France and Turkey: Wheieas her Majesty the Qu^eu of the united Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and his Mojesty the Emperor of the French, have been invited by his Highness the Sultan to assist in re pelling the nttsck which has been made by his Majesty the Emperor of all the Russians upjn the territory of the Sublime Ottoman I'orte?an at tack, whereby the integrity of toe Ottoman Em pire and the independence of the throne of the Sultan are menaced, and whereas their Majesties are perlectly convinced that the existence of the Ottoman Empire in its present territorial circum scription is essential for the balance of puwer between the states of Europe, and whereas they have accordingly agreed to grant to the Sultan the assistance he had required to this end; it has seemed fitting to their toyal and impetial Majes ties aforesaid, as likewise to his Highness the Sul tan, to conclude a treaty, in order to certify llitir views in accordance with 1 he foregoing, and to define the way and manner in which their royal and imperial Majesties aforesaid will afford assist ance to bis Highness. . For this purpose their royal and in penal Majes ties aforesaid, and his Highness the ultan, have named as their plenipotentiaries (here follow the names of the English and French ambassadors and that of the Turkish .Minister for Foreign Affairs), who, having mutually exchanged their credentials that were found to be in due form, have agreed to the following article}: Art. 1.

Their royal and Imperial Majesties will despatch forthwith those land troops to such point or points of the Ottoman territory that shall appear eligible and his Highness the Sullan engages that the Brit ish and French land troops which shall be sent in suchwise for the defence of the Ottoman tenitory shall meet with the same friendly reception, and be treated with the same consideration, as the Bri tish and Fiench naval forces that have been so journing for some time past in the Turkish w aters.

Madrid, March 30.?It is stated that the ex Queen of the French, now nl Sevil'e, has for some time past been arranging a marriage between a Prince of the house of Coburg (the Roman Catho lic branch, it is to be presumed) and a daughter of the Infante Don Francisco de Pauln. The af fianced pair were to meet for the first time at Se ville, during the approaching solemnities of the holy week. It would appear, however, that diffi culties havearrUen in the way of the match, and these are supposed from the innrrioge of the father of the bride with a woman of infamous character, too well known at Madrid by the imme of Teresa Kedondo. For some years past the connection between this woman and the uncle of IheQutenwas notorious, and so scandalous that^Don Francisco de Paula's daughters were removed to the Palace from their father's residenee at the Retiro, where he has since I lived with this woman, for whom he is building a magnificent house near the Plaza del Oriente. A few weeks ago, however, the Infante was seized with qualms of conscience, and addressed himself to his son, the King, saying that he was desirous of marying his mistress, and intimated that there would be nothing more shocking in such a union than in that which a Dowager Queen of Spain had contacted with the man of tier choice. The Kin,;, taking a moral view of the question, approved his father's proposed amendment of his mode of life, and the marriage was duly declared. One of its consequences, rumor now sa>s, lias been the rupture of theptoprwed Coburg alliance, the friends of the German Prince being disgusted at the mesalliance of l.is intended father-in-law. Other accounts are to the effect that the contem plated union has been broken off by English in terference, but whether this statement be true, or the interference proceeded from the Prince's more immediate family and friends, is of little moment, either being probable and highly justifiable. The family of Don Francisco de Paula is famous for misallying itself. Not oneof his married chil dren has espoused an equal, and consequently they liaveal. been deprived of their rights as in lantes of Spain. Don Enrique married a lady of / no particular family, adaughterof Count Cjs ello, no n atch for him; one of Ins sisters married the son of a Spanish nobleman; another a Havanese of the name of Quell. These ferriages, although unquestionably unequal, cannot be considered au eroceful; but that poor old creature, Don Fran cisco, has gone far beyond all his children by taking U. the altar a woman whose character can only be indicated by the strongest word that de scribes fcirale profligacy. The pre jected journey of Quee i Maria Christina lias for one important object, I am informed, the arrangement of the marriage of one of Iter daugh-. ters with a person of high birlh ami great wealth, who-e name has not yet become public. I learn at the last moment that the Duke of Alba and the Countess de Montijo havet el out to-day for Paris. Taken in connection with the coolness I men tioned as existing between the Counters and the Queen .Mother, and with the printed sketch of a projected regency said to be circulated on the French frontier, and in which the Duke of Alba's name was put prominently forward, this sudden move merits attention. The Duke is perhaps de sirous to be put out of the way/lest, if a copy of Ihe paper in question should reach the P iloce here, he might be shipped off to some less agreeable place than Paris.?Cor.

XVIII. 1 want a kind and tender heart, For others wants to leel; A soul >ccure rrom Fortune's dart. And bosomarm'd with steel. To bear divine chastisement's rod And mingling in my plan, Submission to the will of God With caarity to 3!an. XIX. I want a keen, observing eye; An ever listening ear, Tne truth through all disguise to spy, And wisdom's voice to hear. A tongue to speak at viitue's need In Heaven's sublime>t strain; And lips, the cau?e of 3Ian to plead, And never plead in vain. XX. 1 want uninterrupted health '1 hroughout my long career; And streams of never tailing wealth, To scatter far cud near, The destitute to clothe and feed, Free bounty to bestow: Supply the helpless oiphan's need And soothe the widow's woe. XXI. I want the genius to conceive. The talen's to unfold Designs, the vicious to retrieve; The virtuous to uphold. Inventive power, combining skill; A persevering soul, Of human hearts to mould the will And reach fYom Pole to Pole. XXII. 1 want the seals of power and place, The ensigns or command; Charged by the People's unbought grace, To ru e my native land? Nor crown, nor ?ce**tre, would 1 ask, llut from my country's will, By day, by nigbt, to ply the task Her cup ol bliss to fill. XXIII. I want the voice or honest praise To follow rae behind; And to be tbouzht in fulure^ltja The rrlend or human kind. That alter ages as they rise. Exulting may proclaim In choial union to the skies, Their blessings on my name. XXIV. These are the wants of mortal man, I cannot want them long? For life itseir is huts span And earthly btfss a song, Aly last great want absorbing all Is. when beneath the sod. A nd summoned to my final call; The mercy of my Ooi! XXV. And Oh 1 while circles in my veins Of life the purple steam; And yet a fragment still remains Of nature's transient dreami My soul, in humble hope uuscar'd Forget not thou to pray, That this thy want ma* be prepared To meet Uie Judgment d*V.

The weaker sex arc a prey to a variety of agonies that may truly, be called infinite, all growing out of the disotdeted action of the nerves. The nerves are the sewt of all pain.
