We have had to record tho wrack of tho cuttor Koiorarika on this coast during the week, in conscquenco of .running foul of a sandbank, and making water to such an extent that tho master and seamen deemed it prudent to abandon her eight miles from port. We have had two launches of coasting vosscls during the week. The first was a coaster of 22 tons, namsd the Rapid, and built by llr.

Johnson nnd Co., who have a contract with tho Government for a supply of meat to the troops. .She will mako fire more trips to this port with Cattle Owing to the scarcity of cattle at Newcastle at the present time, and the difficulty of getting them to port, we hoar that the destination of several cattle' vessels loading for tills port is to be altered, and that Gladstone and Hockhampton are to bo the ports of loading ■ . H.M. s Falcon, Captain Purkyn, anchored iv this harbour on the evening of tho ISth from a oruise.of the islands Sho had bt en absent from thoso waters a few weeks, during whioh she visited Sydnoy, Ntw Caledonia, and Norfolk Island H.IH. s.

Friday, pot. 13, w# Jiaro intflligenc* of th* total lon of.the brie Adieu, »t Valparaiso, on the 11th August last. , Th*' Adieu was in command of Captain Anderson, 'formerly of- th*''brig Stuan,' in which veiiel he tradtd to' this port 'The following narrative of the .wreck has b«en kindly furnished to, us ;— , , ,« "Tho brig Adiett left Tome, Bay of Cpncopclon, on Tuesday, July &s,Vith7a full cargo of wheat." m»»"»M pound to Mol--bourne, and until the 28th bad light wind* and baffling cloudy weather, but on that day encountered a; violent gal* from the ■ N.Wi, with, a heavy sea, which, continued th* two, following .day*, the ship making a cbnsiderable"qjiantily'of water: And 'onlJondayj'Slst, 1 when 'the gale 'had 'moderated,' found the 'ship making more watei than usual, and, onjiearching {or th* leak, found it in the stdrn,. port ; therefore, (or th* safety of the ship and. cargo, tli6 j master,d I temedit Advisable to btar up for Valparaiso, which was accordingly done without delay, ! and where we arrived on the evening of Brd August, making fast to one of the mooring* buoy* of the port. The,next day, all hands tinploycd in taking, uliuut out of, the after hold and placing it forward to g*t to the leak 1 . ' About l 2 "p ni. the carpenters'came off and repaired it. 'The'remaind** of the day all hands encaged in trimming ship back,: and, .throwing tho wheat aft again,' which was finished at about half-past 1 p m. When the ship was pumped out,' very littlo water found In her. 'At 8 p'm. the anchor watch wos'setfor the night; at that time there boing littl* or no wind, but towards mornlnr a little wind and (well came from the northward, but nothing unusual. At 4a m. the mate, took charge of the ,deck, and about ten minutes after called the captain, laying he thought the ship was getting very cloi* to the rocks. Th* captain immediately rushed on deck, giving ordtrs to I«t go the port anchor, which was instantly done, but in two or thr«* minutes »f torwards she struck violently a»torn. The boat was lowered, and the second mate and'two hands stnt in h*r, to- request assistance ' f roiu the English man-of-war,. Columbine. In a short time her bouts were alongside, but now th* after part of the ship was completely submerged in wator/up to the poop mils and the cabin, fast breaking up. The officer in charge of the man-of-war boats determined to rtmainbyus till daylight, when the captain's wif* was low*r*d into one, of th* boat » by a whip from the end, of th* fore-yard By, this, period the wind and sea had btcomo very high, and it was'found that tho ship's chain was still fast to the mooring-buoy, tlubuoy itself being undtr our bow*. At tW» tirao the, teat -\r*re washing completely, over the ship fore and aft. , Set ,th* crew to work to save anything possible, in the shape of sails, running gear, Src, but what little cotild'be got ashor* wail stolen as soon as landed By the f eons. About 11 ».m. ordered the crew to go on short, which was effected by a sling fromthafore-yordarm, Captain Clarke, of .the bnrque Trieste, hauling.them on shora through the surf with great difficulty. About half an hour after this tho main-mast fell, whin the ship began' to br*ak up fast. > About lpm. the .foremast c»m« f down, and an hour , afterwards the wreck was 'complete; 'the crags and beach around, notwithstanding th* weather, being crowded with a multitude of ptople, numbering about 3,000, all intent on plunder, loosening the copper off th* 'ship's bottom, burning copper bolts out, <tc. No assistance boing able to be procured to protect tho property, th* wreck i was immediately sold for the benefit of the 'underwriters, 'realising" the' sum of 485 dollars."
