      . . . . .

      ASHORE. --The propeller REPUBLIC which sailed for Dunkirk on Saturday evening, ran ashore in the river, just opposite Malden, while attempting to round to wood. Some defect in the light was probably the cause. She was still hard on when the PORTSMOUTH came up yesterday afternoon. She had but little freight in, which had all been taken out, and a tug was at work at her -- Detroit Tribune, 21.
