The barque Isabella, which arrived yesterday (Thursday) afternoon, at Port Chalmers, left Hobart Town on the Bth, bringing papers of'the 7th, with which Captain Copping has favoured us. The Isabella only sighted one vessel on the passage. The barque India had : a nine days' passage from Launoeston, and brings, in addition to her general cargo, a quantity of live pigs in fine condition. She had a fine passage. Sighted only the Isabella, since arrived.

The. Ellen Simpson was towed down from Port Chalmers to the Heads at daylight yesterday (Thursday) morning, carrying -with her 114 passengers, many of thempossessed of some amount of gold in dust and coin. From the well-known character of the ship aid master, the passengers left in anticipation of a pleasant passage. The brig Daniel Watson, 144 tons, W. Young, • master, cleared from Hobart Town, for Otago, on the 6th instant. ,

The Loss op the Lady Flora Hastings.—The barque Lady Flora Hastings has been abandoned at sea, water-logged, and the captain, officers, and crew brought to Port Louis by the Leonie. _ Three years ago abandoned in about the same direction, and with same cargo (the Sir Colin Campbell) was drifted to cur shores. If the Lady Flora Hastings holds together, she may become a prize for some fortunate vessel. The following is the report of Captain German -—We, the undersigned, do hereby depose that on or about the 17th November, 1861, did set sail from Ainherst in the port of Moulmain, in the barque Lady Flora Hastings, of Liverpool, 659 tons register, Jiavmg on board a cargo of about 688 tons .teak timber, with about 30 tons stone, ballast, bound to Palanouth, in England, for orders; and did until the latter part of, December, . experience light iveather and winds with occasional squalls. On the 2nd of January, 1862, being then iv about. 12° lat. South and 80° long., East at 10 a.m. it came onto blow hard from S.S.W. and about 2 p.m. suddenly fell calm, and the sea having* a boiling and most turbulent motion, being apparently the vortex of a forming cyclone, which caused the ship to strain very much, and make a great deal of water. At about 3 p.m. the wind came from North, and blew very hard. Ban to the Southward all night: next morning weather finer, wind N. 8., made sail intending to call at Mauritius to examine ship's stern frame which we found much strained. Continued running to S.S.W. in order to get into the S.E. trade wind, the wind gradually veering'to S. and S.E. until Tuesday January 7, when the wind veered round to S. and S.S.W. blowing hard with threatening appearance. Being then in about 20° South lat. 77°, East, long.,"aid believing another cyclone to he approaching from the Eastward, ran away to tie to keep out of its track, being1 under a close-reefed main topsail and fore topmast staysail, wind at 10 p.m. blowing very heavy from S, S.

W.. and. continued so until 4 a.m. of the Bth instant, the ship making more water than the pumps could keep free, when the ship broached too. Carried away the main topmast, r.nd in falling took away the fore topmast head with mast and yard attached. Shortly afterwards the main and mizen-masts went by the board. Cut away all the gear and kept the ship before ths wind under the fore topmaststaysail, at 6" a.m. the weather moderated. Kept both pumps going, the water gaining on us fast. At neon 10 feet water in lower hold, -the ship becoming unmanageable. Commenced to out tlfe rail and stanchions of the gangway bulwarks in order to launch the long-boat, all_ the others being disabled, the qnarter boat having blown away in pieces from the davits. At 6 p.m. whilst preparing to launch the longboat,-shipped a sea which stove her, and shortly afterwards she went to pieces. At seven p.m. the hntches were forced up by the water and the ship filled and was waterlogged .swimming- very deep in the water. The crew took to the deck of the poophouse and fore-top and remained until seven a.m. of the 10th inst., when the French ship " Leonie," of Marseilles hove in siiilit, and bore down to rescue us, being herself in a disabled condition, having lost her mizen-mast, and two bouts in the same gale; she had but one available boat, which took the crew off the wreck, in two trips, but was unable to save any articles from the wreck as the boat was small. Before leaving the wreck the decks were partially washed out, all bulwarks gone and the pooplioitse partially broken up, all the interior being gone. The ship's register ahd papers with the master's and mate's certificates worn also lost with the longboat.— Mauritius Commercial Gusette, January 23.
