Tho representative of the Salvage Association, who is in charge of the operations, informed the visitors that there are GOO fathoms of steel hawser out, and ho is sanguine of the ship coming off at tho next springs, if assisted by an off-shore wind. All the crew, with the exception of tho captain and two apprentices, have been paid off, but a stuff' of workman is kept on board. The vessel is an iron one, and is lying perfectly upright, parallel with tho bench. The earthquake last week was severely felt by those on board."
