We learn by Capt.Turner of the Propeller MANHATTAN, that on his last trip down, his vessel ran on the Mackinaw reef, on Thursday last in a fog. The Revenue Cutter ERIE, came promptly to his relief and extricated him from his perilous position. Capt. Turner speaks in the highest terms of the conduct of Capt. Dobbins, 1st. Lieut. Berryman, 2nd. Lieut. Hyatt, and 3rd. Lieut. Thompson, upon that occasion, desires us to tender to those officers his acknowledgements for the signal service rendered his vessel -- Buffalo Express.
