TAPPING THE WIRES.
Tom Marshall Love, of Grayson, Ken
tucky, was shot by William Virmillion last
Sunday. It was a cold blooded murder, and
great excitement has been caused by it.
The Constitutional party in Spain has re
solved to support a bill for the immediate
abolition of slavery in Cuba, with the
amendment that the freedmen may work
for whom they please.
News has been received of the loss, in
Cumberland straits, east of Hudson’s Bay,
of the well known whaling schooner lately
employed by Captain H. W. Howgate, of
the Signal Bureau, in Polar investigations.
She was driven ashore during a gale. N<

The Roman Catholic Bishops of Ireland
have resolved to appeal to the government
for help for the distressed poor of that
country. At the same time the Bishops
exhort their flocks to bear their troubles
patiently and peacefully, and adopt consti

land laws.
At the opera house in London, Ontario,
Saturday, Hanlan appeared on the stage
and announced that he would row Court

Trickett for the championship of the world,
and then he would retire from the field as a
sculler.
General Sherman highly recommends the
gallant conduct of Captain Dodge and his

Since the hanging of Kendall and McMil
lan at Martinsburg, the Elliott county regu
lators are extending their organization
throughout northeast Kentucky, and are
reported to have enrolled in their ranks
three thousand of the better citizens of that
region. They say they do not want to
threaten the court, but that the welfare of
society demands that if the murderers,
robbers, horse thieves and outlaws generally,
do not receive exact justice in the
courts, or are acquitted of their crimes
through legal technicalities, they will be
taken charge of and summarily treated by
Judge Ljnch.
A dispatch from Lewes, Del., announces
that at four o’clock on Friday morning last,
the steamship Champion, from New York
for Charleston, collided with the ship Lady
Octavia, from the Delaware Breakwater for
New York, while oil the Delaware capeB,
and sunk in four minutes. It is rumored
that twenty-live of her officers, crew and
passengers were saved, and thirty-two lost.
The Captain of the Octavia reports that he
was struck b3’ the Champion, who came on
him end for end, and he considers the acci
dent the result of carelessness, there evi
dently being no one on watch at the time on
the steamer. Captain Lockwood, of the
Champion, has arrived in New York with a
portion of his crew, and he reports that at
the time of the collision his vessel was in
charge of the first officer, an experienced
seaman, who had sailed with him for four
teen years, and who was among the lost.
A terrible disaster occurred on Friday last
in Kansas City, Missouri. Four three-story
brick buildings there, corner of Second and
Main streets, fell and were consumed by
fire. Seven boys and girls out of one hun
dred and seven persons employed in the
buildings perished. The accident is sup
posed to have been caused by a starch ex
plosion.
The short time movement at Oldham
gives signs of breaking up.
The steamer Falcon, from Baltimore to
Charleston, was sunk on the night of the
Sth inst. oil Cove Point, Chesapeake bay, by
a collision with the schooner Tryon. All

About 8:20 Saturday night a bridge over
the St. Louis, Kansas City and Northern
Railroad gave way os a train was passing
over it, and seventeen cars of live stock, the
caboose and seven men were precipitated
in the river. The engine and one car with
the conductor, engineer and fireman were
saved by the connection with the cars break
ing. Three dead bodies and three men bad
ly injured were taken from the river.
The Guion steamship Arizona, which
sailed from New York on the 4th instant for
Liverpool, put' into St. John’s, Newfound
land, yesterday morning. She struck an
iceberg and stove in her bows. No one was
hurt, and the cargo is all right.
The town of Strasburg, Mo., was struck
by a cyclone Saturday. A church and four
or five other buildings were demolished.
No one was killed, but a large number of
persons were injured.
The Turkish press is very violent on Eng
land’s course, and says that England’s de
mands are more unjust than were the at
tempts of Russia to interfere In Turkish
administrations, and for which the late war
was waged.
Public apprehension respecting the politi
cal situation In Turkey still exists. The
Agence Russe says England’s action in Turkey
will not go beyond the point where the
Austro-German interests become affected.

The Rumored Grant Boom at the
South.
We observe that some of our ex
changes are treating with a degree of
seriousness the political canard started,
we believe, by our very worthy though
sometimes facetious contemporary, the
Atlanta Constitution, to the effect that
there was some talk of a movement on
foot at the South to take up Grant, elect
him President and invest him with the
extraordinary powers for which the strong
government stalwarts are so lustily
clamoring. The Charleston News and
Courier devotes nearly a two-column edi
torial to the subject, maintaining not
only that no such “feeling or leaning is
widespread in the South,” but that such
a movement, even if practicable, would
be nothing less than utter and humiliating
stultification on the part of the Southern
Democracy. The Nashville American,
while it characterizes the rumor as
wild and absurd suggestion,” makes it
the text for sententious comment and
timely advice. Says the American :
“Defeat for a time brings out all the
hopeless and faith lacking and faithless
with some new plan which generally
amounts to going over to the enemy
without seeming to go. For our part
we think defeat the most nutritious of
diet when it is carefully masticated and
digested. In many cases it far excels
victory. All the Democratic party has
to do is to go to work and to deserve
success, and then it will have no diffi
culty about obtaining victories which
will last. The trouble has been hereto
fore that if success had been obtained
it would not have lasted. Let the Demo
cracy quit turning this way and that
for success, quit thinking about suc
cess, and go to thinking about
wisely administering the government,
and the first thing it knows success will
come to stay. Let it adopt the wisest
leadership and eschew the worst, a new
leadership essentially different from that
which has misled the party for the past
two years, and there will be no trouble
about success. The general gain made
by Republicans Tuesday was no bad in
dication, except to those who expect
error to succeed. To them it is gall.
The essential and fundamental princi
ples of Democracy were not involved,
but only a certain dangerous coquetting
with heresy and with dangerous ele
ments. True Democracy is ready for
the next fray.”
It has seemedjo us that to treat with
seriousness a proposition so manifestly
insincere and preposterous would be
scarcely less absurd than the proposition
itself. It would be challenging the pub
lic credulity even to surmise that it were
possible for any $anc Southern Democrat
for a moment seriously to contemplate
such an expedient, even as a remedy for
the worst evils that Radicalism has or can
possibly inflict upon the South. To ad
mit that such a movement had even
been dreamed of as a probable contin
gency, would be a reflection upon South
ern intelligence, Southern patriotism and
Southern honor. But we are being led
into the very absurdity which we would
avoid. It was not our intention to give
a serious thought to a proposition which
evidently bad its origin in a spirit of
political skylarking and which has never
been seriously meditated by any one.
When Judge Dooly proposed to suppress
gambling by betting against the faro
banks and breaking them, the proposi
tion was regarded as very absurd, though
as a means of fighting the d—1 with fire,
there was in it, with favoring luck, a
bare chance of success. But for South
ern Democrats, with their sturdy devo
tion to the principles, after all their sac
rifices in the cause of constitutional gov
ernment, to attempt to circumvent Radi
cal treason and usurpation by making
Grant dictator, would be worse than
bucking against faro ” to break up
gambling. It would be a sneak game
against fate, in which we would lose all
—not only our own self-respect, but the
respect of our enemies. In a word, it
would be moral and political suicide.
of
The Lesson of the Elections.
A Democratic Senator distinguished
for his political knowledge and sagacity,
in a conversation with the Washington
correspondent of the Baltimore Sun on
the lesson of the elections and its bear
ing on the political future, lays down the
ultimatum that in the Democratic nomi
nations Indiana must be consulted
equally with New York. Mr. Hendricks
be regards as entirely out of the ques
tion, since that gentleman has so posi
tively stated that he will not again ac
cept the nomination for Vice-President.
To put Mr. Hendricks at the head
the ticket, he said, would be “a slap
the face” to Mr. Tilden, forbidden alike
by honor and policy. The ticket of 1876
must stand or fall as a unity. If it was not
renominated, and be did not think it was
the strongest ticket that could be put up
by any means, then, in his opinion, either
Bayard or Hancock would be most likely
to head the ticket. He thought Han
cock would make the greater run of the
two, because, like most other men in his
sphere of life, he had nothing to explain
and nothing to defend. But this only
case General Grant did not run as the
Republican candidate, as nothing ever
had been made or would be made by
putting up a Lieutenant against a Cap
tain. The Senator said he had been in
formed by some of the leading bankers
in New York that Bayard could poll
20,000 more votes in that State than Mr.
Tilden. Bayard, he thought, could run
equally as well, if not better, than Mr.
Tilden in New Jersey and Connecticut
But the trouble with Mr. Bayard was
in Indiana. The Democratic leaders there
were so far apart from him on the sub
ject of the finances that to support him
they would have to modify and take so
much back that it would possibly prove
embarrassing. Senator Voorbees and
Mr. Bayard, for instance, have drifted
so far apart in their differences on the
proper financial policy of the government
that they are personally on the most
frigid of terms. But the Senator
thought all these embarrassments might
in a great measure be overcome by asso
dating Senator McDonald, of Indiana,
on the ticket with Mr. Bayard. Mr. Mc
Donald is very solid with the people of
Indiana, and there is no community
where the feeling of State pride has
firmer hold. With McDonald on the
ticket, he would consider the vote of
Indiana perfectly safe.

A Political Nuisance Abated.—
Beast Butler may be counted out of the
Presidential politics of 1880. He will
not be an independent candidate, unless
the Republicans induce him, by a mu
nificent retainer, to run for the purpose
of drawing away votes that would other
wise be given to the Democratic candi
date. Had be carried Massachusetts on
Tuesday, he would certainly have been
a Presidential candidate next year, with
an excellent chance of carrying his own
State at least and a possibility of thus
throwing the election into the House,
where the State delegations are very
evenly divided and where a Greenbacker
(De LaMatyr, of Indiana), holds the bal
ance of power in one delegation. Had
Butler even gained on his vote of last
year, he might become a PresidentiaT
candidate. But he not only sustained
defeat but also fell behind his vote of
last year, and thus he becomes politically’
what is sometimes and very aptly called
a dead duck.” The late election has
removed the Butler danger from the
Democratic field of 1880.
COTTON CROP REPORTS—LOUISIANA.
New Orleans, November 9.—The fol
lowing is the crop report of the Cotton Ex
change for October in Louisiana: In sixty-
five replies from twenty-nine parishes, of an
average date of October 31, the weather is
reported as having been very fine through
out the month. A general frost occurred
about October 23, but caused little or no
damage. The proportion picked averages
about 70 per cent. Two parishes report
picking finished. The balance will finish
about December 10. Thirty replies show
an average increase in yield as compared
with last year of 23 per cent. One gives the
same yield as last year, and twenty-four
make no report as to either increase or de
crease.
Mississippi.—From this State we have
received seventy-eight reports from thirty-
one counties of dates varying from October
28th to November 4th, the average date
being October 31st. The weather has been
exceedingly favorable to the crop, and,
compared with last year, it Is decidedly
better for gathering. A light frost appeared
throughout the 8tate October 24th but
caused no damage. 8eventy per cent, of
the crop is picked, and picking will be
generally finished by December 10th.
Thirty-nine replies show an average Increase
in the yield as compared with last year of 21
per cent., thirteen an average decrease of 16
per cent., and twenty-six report the yield as
about the same as last year.
Arkansas—Our report is compiled from
forty-three replies from twenty-three coun
ties of an average date of October 31st.
The weather during the month has been dry
and for gathering the crop the most favor
able ever known. A light frost was re
ported about the 24th, but this occasioned
no damage. The average of the crop
picked is about 05 per cent., and picking
will be finished by or about December 10th.
Twenty-four correspondents report an in
crease in the yield as compared with last
year of 21 per cent., nine a decrease of 28
per cent, and ten report the same as last
year. i
STRUCK AN ICEBERG.
Republican Bulldozing.—Informa
tion reaches "Washington City of a recent
case of bulldozing in Mississippi, which,
it may be taken for granted, the Radical
slander mongers will not accept as grist
to their mill. A suit was brought in
Columbus by the government against a
man named Johnson, a well known Re
publican and a government employe, for
fraud in a cotton claim. Last week the
agents went to Columbus to hunt up
further proof in the case. Two sons of
Johnson threatened the lives of both of
the agents, and served notices on them
to leave town, which they did at once.
The Clerk of the court was also warned
not to permit them to examine any of
the records. The affair has created quite
a sensation in Mississippi, blit as it is
confined entirely to Republicans, it will
doubtless not be considered worthy of
Northern circulation.
Mutiny in tiie Navy.—Commenting
on Admiral Nichols’ statement in regard
to the mutiny on board the United States
steamer Hartford, an extract from which
we print in another column, the Wash
ington Post says: “It shows a sad state
of affairs among the enlisted men on
from a business which Randall managed. that ship, and it is not unlikely that an
Randall escaped.
Captain Lockwood, of the steamer Cham
pion, has made a full statement regarding
the loss of the steamer, and lays all the
blame on the Lady Octavia. He says the
latter bore right down upon him and made
the collision inevitable. He did all he could
to save the passengers, especially the ladies,
but the latter became panic stricken and
were all lost.
The Austrian bark Rebus arrived in New
York yesterday with the survivors of the
schooner Petrel, whom she picked up at
6ea from the water logged wreck of that
vessel. The Petrel was met by a hurricane
and was capsized. Most of the men were
swept from the decks and drowned, but a
few clung to the rigging, and after suffering
intensely from hunger and thirst for many
days were picked up by the Rebus. Of
twenty-one on board fifteen, including the
Captain and both mates, were drowned.
Abraham Aub, a prominent Jewish citi
zen of Cincinnati, died there yesterday
morning.
The passengers of the steamer Falcon,
which sunk in seven fathoms of water on
account of a collision with the schooner
Tryon in Chesapeake bay, were saved in the
boats. The officers and crew, twenty-five in
number, climbed up the rigging as she went
down and were rescued. She belonged to
the 8. S. <fc R. R. Co., of Charleston, and
was valued at from $25,000 to $30,000. Her
cargo was valued at $30,000, but much of
that may be recovered.
Capt. Webb challenges Paul Boyton to
swim against him from ten to twenty miles
for £1,000 a side, or he offers to bet £5,000
to £1,000 that he can swim naked In the
open sea for thirty-six hours.
The result of the recent election in New
York is still in doubt. The Sun figures the
election of Potter, Democrat, for Lieutenant
Governor, by a majority of about 2,000, and
Horatio Seymour by nearly 10,000 majority.
The rest of the ticket Is very close. It is
believed among some Democrats in Albany
that returns from the westerq counties of
the State are being held back so that they
nan be doctored and secure the return of
the Republican candidates, and most of the
Democratic nominees have joined in a dis
patch to personal friends in each county
asking them to supervise the count.
Second Assistant Postmaster General
Brady makes a report. He says the esti
mates of the next fiscal year are made with
a view to provide for a continuance of the
present service, and to afford a largely in
creased service in the States of Indiana,
Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Caro
lina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Mit-
gisslppi and Alabama.
equally unhappy condition is generally
prevalent throughout the navy. Until
there is a radical change so that decent
men can be induced to enlist, our ships
of war will be manned by the refuse of
foreign navies and a low order of Ameri
cans. Under the present system, the
temptation to enter a well regulated peni
tentiary is about as great as the allure
ments of a seaman’s life on a man-of-
war.
Radical Corruption m Rhode Is
land.—It is learned that the Senate
Committee which went to Rhode Island
last summer to investigate political man
agement in that State will have a very
racy and interesting report to submit to
the Senate. A member of the commit
tee says that he never dreamed of such
corruption in politics as was disclosed,
and that money was the important factor
in all elections in Rhode Island. Fede
ral officials were proved to be active
agents in the corrupt manipulation of
votes, and the Providence post office was
found to be an institution as far apart in
its management from any conception of
a proper civil service as are the anti
podes.
Colonel Eskridge telegraphs to General
Sherman that trouble has occurred in the
neighborhood of Fort 8111, Indian Territoiy,
between local and Federal authorities. It
seems that Deputy United States Marshal
Johnson arrested ten citizens in that vicinity,
charged with receiving stolen property erf
the United States, and started with them to
Dallas. He was overtaken by the 8heriff
of the county with & posse, however, who
took Johnson and the prisoners before the
local civil authorities. The prisoners were
released and Johnson held for false impri
sonment. He afterwards attempted to re
arrest the prisoners, and also arrested the
local authorities for resistance. All the
citizens, headed by the local civil authori
ties, are resisting the Marshal,who is power,
less to do anything. The military refuse to
interfere in the affair without further or
ders.
The Secretary of the Treasury has rejected
all bids for bonds made Saturday, but haa
authorized the Assistant Treasurer to buy
ten million of sixes of 1881 at rates not ex
ceeding 106. Bonds amounting to $7,000,-
000 have been already offered and accepted
by the Treasury at that figure, and it is
thought the entire $10,000,000 will soon be
turned in.
TnE Lottery Scandal.—A Washing
ton dispatch says: “The Post Office De
partment already experiences much diffi
culty and embarrassment in carrying
out the order excluding the business of
lotteries from the mails. It is not law
ful to open sealed letters to discover
their contents, and where such are ad
dressed to lottery agents simply as in
dividuals they cannot be withheld.
There are so many schemes by which
the Department regulations on this sub
ject may be evaded that the post office
officials begin to think their edict against
the lotteries has proved a mere brutum
fulmen. If the Postmaster General finds
the present order entirely inoperative, as
there ia good reason to believe, he will
probably apply to Congress for addition
al legislation to help him out”
St. John’s, Newfoundland, November
9.—The Guion line steamer Arizona, Capt.
Jones, which sailed from New York Novem
ber 4th for Liverpool, put in here this morn
ing. She struck an Iceberg Friday night
and stove in her bows. No person was
hurt, and the cargo is all right. It
will take possibly three weeks to
repair the damage to the vessel. Some of
the passengers will be forwarded by the
steamer Caspian from St. John’s Thursday
next, and the remainder *by the Nevada,
which steamer will sail from New York
Tuesday next, and will call for them. 8. B.
Guion, managing owner of the line, is
among the passengers on the Arizona.
The Arizona struck a large iceberg in lati
tude 47,longitude 45 west, on the night of the
7th inst. while on her way from New York
to Queenstown. The night was very dark
and the iceberg was not 6een until too near
to materially lessen the steamer’s speed. The
shock was severe and considerable damage
was done to the vessel’s bows. It was,
therefore, thought prudent to return to this
port and make repairs. No injury was sus
tained by the passengers or cargo.
LATEST ESTIMATES OF THE NEW YORK ELEC
TIONS.
New York, November 9.—The Herald
says the Republicans at headquarters here
feel confident they have elected most of the
State ticket. Mayor Cooper has called the
attention of the Police Commissioners to
the fact that returns from thirty election
districts are still missing.
The Sun's returns give Potter (Democrat)
a majority of about 2,000, Horatio Seymour,
Jr., (Democrat) nearly 10,000 majority, and

FULL STATEMENT OF CAPTAIN LOCKWOOD.
New York, November 9.—The following
is the full statement of Captain Lockwoot L
with regard to the disaster to the steamer
Champion: “We had a remarkably quiet
voyage up to the time of the accident.
When we left New York the weather was
foggy* but this cleared away before we were
ten hours out. On the morning of the
collision I left my room about five minutes
past three and returned to the pilot house
for a few seconds. I had hardly gotten
back to my room again when I head some
one sing out, ‘Sail ahead and hard by.’ I
jumped Into the pilot house and rang
the bell to 6top the steamer and then
to back at full speed. I saw that
ship was coming down upon us, and
that a collision was inevitable. She was
steering east northeast. We were going south
southwest, half west. The ship had full sail
on and headed right at us. We were going
under steam and had just set the foretop
sail. She struck us right on the bow of the
cathead on the starboard side and crushed
right into us, staving In our whole bows,
was afraid that my vessel would sink In
almost an instant, and at once ordered the
first mate to go forward and see what
water, if any, the Champion was mak
ing, but before he had time to return,
1 found my ship was fast sinking. I
then ordered the second mate to get the
boats In readiness, that is to cut them loose
from my ship, as it was fast going down,
also ordered him to have the life raft cut
adrift so that it might be rendered useful in
case the steamer went down under foot, as
I was afraid she would give us no warning.
My next work was to warn the lady passen
gers of their great danger. I rushed
into the cabin and cried aloud ‘Ladies the
ship is going down, yon have not a moment
to spare. Never mind your clothing, but
come out at once.’ I believe there were
but three ladies there, but of this I am not
sure. None of them came out, and the only
response I received was lo.ud screaming and
hallooing. They could have come out very
easily if they wished, but I suppose they be
came panic stricken. My duties called me
l away, and I was still in hopes that the wo
men had obeyed my summons, but unfortu
nately I found afterwards they had not. I
believe they were all lost. There has been but
one female saved, and that is the stewardess,
Catherine Cross. When the ship went down
I was standing by the main rigging, and
near me stood a number of the crew. I
said: ‘Boys, save yourselves, and don’t
mind me.’ Each of them then took life
preservers and expressed their determina
tion to stand by me. After a few seconds, I
said : ‘Throw the life raft overboard and
I’ll come afterwards. Jump for your
lives.’ This was speedily done, and they
left me. I was the last to leave the vessel,
and went down with her. I soon came
to the surface again. This may seem
strange, but it is nevertheless a fact.
I kept near the surface of the
water, and 60 I suppose did not experience
the suction of the vessel while she was
going down. When I came to the top of
the water I found myself close to the life
raft, on which I was pulled by those already
there. I have been commander of the
Champion for the past thirteen years.
Leonard, first officer, was in charge when
the collision took place. He ran forward
the moment the crash occurred, and that
was the last I saw of him. He was a tried
and experienced seaman, and had sailed
with me for over fourteen years. He was a
man about forty eight years old, a resident
of Brooklyn, and leaves a wife and two
children. My room, where I went just be
fore the collision, adjoined the pilot house—
in fact you could almost step from one to
the other. The Champion carried about five
life boats and a life raft. I understand that
four passengers and two seamen were
picked up by a bark that came along
some time after the collision. I have
heard since that she was Norwegian,
but that was all. None of us knew her
name or anything about her beyond the fact
that she was evidently bound north. The
Lady Octavia, the ship that ran into us,
saved nine lives. We saved the rest on a
life raft, except, of course, those who were
picked up by the unknown bark. The
night was a beautiful starlight one with a
little moonlight. We were about thirty

A Double Contradiction.—A dis
patch from Chicago, published Wednes
day, stated that General Sherman had
written to a friend in Chicago to the
effect that General Grant had an im
portant message to deliver to the peor
pie of the United States, and that he
would deliver it on reaching that city.
According to Washington advices,
General Sherman says that he knows
nothing of any such message, and that
so far as he is concerned the statement
is pure fiction. He has not the slightest
idea who is using his name so freely, and
laughs at the insinuation. A dispatch
from Galena says that when his atten
tion was called to the curious statement
General Grant said: “I have no special
message to deliver to the people of the
United States in Chicago or elsewhere.”

FATAL ACCIDENT BY A RAILROAD BRIDGE
giving WAY.
St. Louis, November 9.—About 8:30
o’clock la&t night, as an extra train, tinder
charge of conductor Kimley and engi
neer Plowman, was crossing the St. Louis,
Kansas City and Northern City bridge, over
the Missouri river at St. Charles, the west
span of the main structure suddenly gave
way, precipitating seventeen cars of live
stock, a caboose and seven men into the
river. The engine and one car with the
conductor, engineer and fireman, were saved
by the breaking of the connection between
the cars. Three dead bodies and three men
badly injured have been recovered from the
river,
six more persons rescued from the
CHAMPION.
New York, November 9.—The bark Petit
Codiac, British, Capt. Sleeves, which ar
rived here to-day from Gloucester, via Dela
ware Breakwater, has on board four of the
passengers and two of the crew of the
steamship Champion, which eank near the
entrance of Delaware bay Friday morning.
struck by a cyclone.
New York, November 9.—A special from
Kansas City 6ays: “The town of Stras
burg was 6truck by a cyclone yesterday af
ternoon, which demolished a church and
four or five other buildings. No lives were
lost, but a large number of persons are said
to have been injured. There Is no telegraph
station at Strasburg, and particulars cannot
be obtained at present.”
ANOTHER CHARLESTON STEAMER SUNK.
Baltimore, November 9.—The steamer
I time. The last I saw of the Champion’s
wreck her topmasts were about two feet
out of water. I would rather not just at
present say anything about who was to
blame for the collision, but I think that the
ship could have avoided it.”
DETAILS OF THE SINKING OF THE FALCON.
Baltimore, November 9.—The steamer
Falcon, Capt. Kirby, left this port at four
o’clock yesterday afternoon for Charleston,
with a full cargo and seven passengers.
When off Barron Island, and about ten
miles south of Sharp’s Island, she
collided with the three masted schoouer
S. C. Tryon, Captain Nickerson,
laden with ice, from Kennebec river, and
bound for this port. At 10:15 the schooner
sighted the steamer and kept on her course
on a leading breeze and steering to a point
west of north. Just before they met, the
course of the steamer was changed and
she came across the course of the schooner,
when the collision occurred, at 10:30
o’clock. The bow of the schooner struck the
hall of the steamer on a line with the mlzzen
mast, crashing through and destroying the
upper works. The flying jibboom carried
away the mizzen mast, and threw down the
smoke stack of the steamer. As soon as
they could be loosed from each other
Captain Kirby steered for shoal water, the
collision having occurred where water was
twelve fathoms, but before he proceeded
half a mile the steamer went down. All
of the boats of the Falcon were stove
through. Her life boat was made available,
and the women and children were first put
into it, and then the male passengers, and
sent to the schoouer. Before the boat re
turned the Falcon had gone down* and her
officers and crew, twenty fire in number,
climbed into the rigging, whence they were
rescued. The schooner lay by nntil
daylight, when she continued her
course, and arrived here at
five o’clock this afternoon. The passengers
lost all their clothing, except what they had
on when the disaster occurred. The schooner
was damaged about five hundred dollars.
The Falcon^ is about six hundred tons
burthen, belonged to the Charleston S. S. &
R. R. Co., and was worth about twenty-five
thousand or thirty thousand dollars. Her
cargo was valued at ahont thirty thousand
dollars, but much of that may be recovered.
She sank in seven fathoms of water, and
her mastheads and topmasts are visible.
