We are informed by Mr. Keeler, editor of the Colborne Transcript, who is now in town, that the schooner PEERLESS, which went ashore at Presque Isle in the late gale, has been hauled off by the steamer TRAVELLER, and arrived at Cape Vincent yesterday morning, her cargo of wheat will be shipped to Albany by cars. The PEERLESS leaks slightly, but only about 50 or 100 bushels of her cargo were damaged. -- Oswego Times.
