THE GREY EAGLE.-- A dispatch from Captain Johnson, of the schooner Grey Eagle, announces that his vessel is ashore on Whitefish Point, which has been the scene of numerous disasters within the past week. The Grey Eagle was bound to a Green Bay port for a cargo of lumber, and must have gone ashore on the 10th, in company with the Delaware, E. R. Blake and Montauk. She is in such bad shape that the captain thinks he will succeed in saving only the outfit. She was built at Buffalo in 1857 by Messrs. Bidwell & Banta, measuring 380 tons burthen, rated B 1, and was insured for $10,000 in the republic of Chicago, on a valuation of $12,500.
