Ir will be seen, by reference to the report of the
Bottra of Health, that only two deaths have occur
ed m the last 49 bonrs from yellow fever. As there
was no death on Saturday, it is therefore only two
deaths in the last three days. This would seem to
indicate a very favorable state of things, were it not
for the number of new cases reported. These
leave no doubt that the disease has been on the
increase for the last several days, during which
the weather has been very unfavorable.

I<o*B of the Arctic.
Our readers ht,ve already been advised by tele
£ra pb ot the loss of the splendid steam -hip Arctic,
bound from Liverpool to New York with several
hundred souls on board. We are at length enabled
to present some of the bceit-rending dalikls of
this awful calamity, by which between two aud
three hundred persons have probably perished*
The news was brought to Now York by the ship
Lebanon, which brought a portion ot the passen
gers and crew rescued by the Huron from one of
the Arctic’s boats, among whom was Mr. George
H. Earns, Adams & Company’s express messenger,
wiio was one of iho survivors of the wreck, and
had the following statement prepared for the press:
STATEMENT OF Hit. BUKN'3.
The steamship Arctic, with 2z6 passengers, ex
clusive of children, 175 employ es, a valuable cargo,
and heavy mail, in lost. Os the more than tour
hundred persons who Itfc Liverpool on the 2dth
c!t., lull ts hone, gaiety and health, many relum
ing trom an European tour of | Unsure only thirty
two are known to have been saved, and certainly
not more than one hundred can, by any possibility,
have escaped a watery grave.
in audition to ail this, another large steamer,
, freighted with hundreds of human beings, has in
ali probability, not a like late. The details of the
horrible disaster are as foil, ws:
On. Wednesday, 8 cp; ember 27, precisely at 12
o’e’oek, M, in a dense log, we came in control
wuu a barque ringed non fropeiler, with black
Lull, salmon colored bottom, lead colored poop aud
boats, and black pipe. She was bound Eastward,
and had all sail set, with a strong, lair wind. The
speed of the Arctic at the time was about thirteeu
knots an hour. The shock to us appeared slight,
but the damage to the Giber vessel w&s frightful.
Capt. Luoo instantly or .red the quarter boats
cleared away, and the chief mate, boatswain and
three sailors went to her relief; before other boats
left, the order w s s countermanded. The Arctic
then described a circle twice round tho wreck,
during which time I oaught a glimpse of more
than ‘wo hundred people clustered on her hurri
cane deck,
t\i uu junction it was first ascertained that we
had sustained injury, and the wa'er was pouring
in at our bows. When tho fi-st officer came aLng
side to report, the captain was unable to take him
up, but headed N. N.W. in the hope of making
land. Our position on the previous day, at 12
O’clock was latitude 43 39 longitude 45 27. We
had run about three hundred and ten miies from
the time of this observation until the moment of
collision, and were supposed to be forty mil sfrotn
Cape Race. Tho pumps wCre vigourously worked,
and an auchor chain was thrown overboard ; but
in spite of all exertion, the engines stopped, and
the water extinguished the fires. Four of the five
other life boats, believed to have been well pro
visioned, containing the engineers, sailors, a few
passengers, aud all the officers except the captain
and third mate, ieft the ship at an early stage. The
majority of the passengers were working at the
pumps—some firing the signal guns, and others
launching spar3, under trie direction of captain
Luce and Mr. Dorian, the third mate, to fo.m a
raft.
In order to facilitate this latter work, the sixtn
and last boat was lowered. Dorian, one or two
firemen, three of the other passengers saved and
myself, were busily engaged in lashing water casks
ami settees to tho main yard, two topgallant yards,
and several smaller spars—the captain with a num
ber of gentlemen, prelecting the work by keeping
back the crowd—when a panic seized all on board,
a rush was made, passengers and firemen precipi
tated themselves headlong over the bulwarks on to
the Taft, and in a moment oar little boat was fail
and in imminent danger of being sunk. In this
eme r gancy, Dorian ordered the rope which held
us to the steamer to be cut, and with our hands
and axes we paddled from tho raft’s side. The
mate, who throughout preserved great presence of
mind and labored with hero.:c energy, cried out—
“ For God’s sake, capain, clear the raft, so that
we can work. I won’t desert theship while then's
a timber above water.”
Bit ibeaea was now flush with the dead-lights.
Jr. less than three minutes from the time he
apeke, the stern sunk—the foam weut boiling
over the tambling heap of human beings—many
were dashed forward against the pipe. 1 beard
one wild yell, (still rmging iu my ears) and saw
tbeAraboand the struggling mass rapidly en
wulphed. Numbers yet c.uttg to the imperfectly
constructed rati; but, ales, we could render them
no aid. Our own situation was no less precarious;
and, cruel as it seemed, wo were forced to abau
don them to fate. Heaven forbid that I sheuld
ever witness such another acene. We, however,
up two more men, aud f en, with mi over
loaded boat, without oars, tholepins, food or driLk,
avoiding with difficulty the fragments of tbe
wreck, and passing many dead females, prepared
for a night upon the oeean. We secured a float
ing pumpkin and cabbage to guard against imme
diate starvation, mrlied a spar to tho prow of our
boat to keep her head to the wind and sea, and
thus drifted until day-I.ght; the night was cold
iind foggy, with a heavy swell, and, in a cramped i
dtere* cd and haif-nrked condition, we svtfered
tgrrib y.
Without dwelling upon our miseries, a’leviated
much by the consciousness that wo hs.i endeavor
ed to do our duty to our fellow men, suffice it to
gsv that at five o’clock on the nfteruoon of the
86th, we espied a mil, and raised a handkerchief
to attract UttenVoo. Wo wo?-.-, encoeastul. W ith
the rude substitute for oa’-t whicu we had con- i
itructed during the day by lashing planks to cap- ‘
sun bars, with a view of attempting to gain land j

Esq. i
Halifax, Wednesday morning.
No intelligence hi.s been received of ike missing
bears of tho Arctic.
In addition to the brigautiuo Ann EHaa (de
spatched by Messrs. Warren Brothers, under an
arrang ment with the American consul,)and other
vessels, we are happy to state that tho Rv. Dr.
Field has placed his yacht “Hawk” at the dispo
sal of Mr. Newman, wno lost no time in engay ;.-g
3 crew and fi'tircr bar cut for sea.
??hs ieft at 1 o’clock, P. M , yesterday, vrih in-
Btrucdouß to cruise for eis days to the southward
oi the island.
It was generally expected thkt ‘dr. White of He
New York. Newfoundland and London Telegraph
Companv. would have despatched tbe Company’s
s’earner Victoria to cruise for the missing boats.
The steamer arrived from the westward oh Monday
i evening and remained at the con party’s wharf ci
til yesterday at noon. We understand that the
reply to Mr. Newman’s application was that she
could he lad for $590 per day. Iler burden in

Ts” following statement of the loss of the Arctic
j by Mr. Baahiam, the second officer, appeared in au
! ex'ra of the Ledger on Tuesday.
Mr. Bialil&m, and .no other officers, crow and
, passengers saved in the tw-> boats, arrived at
Broad Cove and reached here on Tuesday. O
i Wednesday, tho 27th. sit noon, Cape Race bearing
; Northwest* 65 mi Jo? distant, while running in a
t very thick lor, tbe Arctic r%. /.truck oa the slar
j board bow, about 60 feet bus. ho eutwatcr, by an
! iron st‘ ajaer, wiiich made three large boles in the
; ship, two below the water, one ot w hich was a- out
i live foet uud a Lt-.lf leng aud twelve or eighteen
j inches wido, the whole cutwater and stem of the
iron steamer having passed through the Arctic’s
j side.
i So dense was the fog that the vessel could not
be seen a minute before the collision. The wheel
was put hard to starboard. The engine was stop
ped instantly and backed at full speed, until clear
of tho other steamer, w hich occupied a couple of
minute?. The French steamer seemed to be sink
ing bow first.
Capt. Luce immediately gave orders to clear
away the quarter beats, wh’ch was dene, and Mr.
Gourley, chief officer, iett the Arctic in charge of
the starboard boat. On lowering the port boat
the eaptain exclaimed, “ Hoist up that boat again,
Mr. Baahiam,” and beckoned me to go to him.
Upon doing so, he ordered me to go over tho bow
to ascertain if possible what damage had been
done. I then found the holes above mentioned.
Upon informing him of the facts, he gave orders
to get sails uo and try and get them round the bow
to endeavor to stop the leak, which was promptly
done, but to no advantage whatever, so much of
the bow and iron broken off from the other steam
er projecting that tho sails could not bo brought
close to the vessel’s side.
The carpenter was then lowered over the ves
sel’s side and pillows aud mattrasses rassed down
to him to try if possible to force them in, but the
leak was found to be so far below the water line
that this could not be done, and every exertion to
stop the leak proved unavailing.
Captain Luce then ordered the ship’s head to
be kept for land, which bore N. W. by W. By
this time w * had lost sight! of the chief officer’s
boat and the other steamer, which we supposed
had sunk.
We had not been on our courso more than four
or five minutes before wo ran over a boat aud
crew belonging to tho other vessel, all of whom
perished, with the exception of one who caught
hold of a rope hanging over the bow. Directly the
boat was seen, orders wore given to stop the en
gine, which the chief engineer said could not be
done, as the ship was fast sinking.
la about thirty ruinates all the lower fires were
out, and there was at least three feet of water in
the ship, fore cud aft. By this time the confusion
among the passengers was very great, but they
used all effjrts to assist the crew in keeping the
deck pumps going, End in lightening the ship
forward for the purpose of endeavoring to get at
tbe leak from the inside, which was found to be
useless. Number- of them crowded into the boats
which were still hanging to the davits.
Ih forty five minroes after the collision 1 came
up from the fore bold and informed the captain
that the water w- a on a level with tho lower deck
beams, and that it was impossible to get at the
leak. 1 then asked him what be thought would
be the fate of the ship, when h" stated his belief
to me that there was no hope of saving her. He
| then told me to see to mv boats.
On going to the port side, I found them com
pletely filled with im n, women and children, ant) j
no possibility of getting near them. I immediate- j
jy went to the s arboard side and ordered two of j
the crew to lower the guard bust, and ask'd the*
captain what were hisiote: tlons. He replied that j
“tne ship’s fate should oo hi?.” I then asked him ’
it he would Lot allow his,son to co, as 1 intended to 1
take a boat, but he returned me ike answer, teat,
“ho shoni 1 share his sum.”
Ii was soon discovered thrt there was no ho no ;
cf saving tin Arctic, and tbe lady, daughter and j
son of Mr. E. K. Collins, with several ladies, were 1
put on board a boat, in lowering which one of the j
tackles gave v- ay, and all except, one lady, who :
c'ung to a sailor holding fi st to the boat, .were j
precipitated into t; e sea and io-t.
I then jamped into a baat and was ordered by j
the cuputn t cut away the tackle fails aud drool
uc-.er the stern. Idi S so, ar.d at the same time i
! twenty persons, 1 suppose, jumped ever- [
a ~} wmm seventeen or eighteen were picked
i\~rrn7V another boat, which had been !
ntii Keened her of i
{ Y Wiag nineteen in her
and twon y pis in our own boat
The last sight we had of the ship L er yords were
level w.th the water,and the turface of the sea i
was strewn with human being,, who had j
or faHen overboard, to whom, however it ws an j
possible to render any assistance, au ’d wo booh I
lost rgbt of all, t s the f-*g continued to be very
dense. I tbon wked the boat’s crew wlif-thei
they weie willing to be governed by me, which
11** unanimously assented to, tdid } wua put in
C?*6pl?if command of totii boats.
We wore then about sixty miles S. E. of Cape
Race. Deeming it my duty to take the nearest
conr?o, tor the safety of ail, after palling for forty
hours with nothing to guide ns but tho run of tho
sea, which I took to bo heaving from the South
ward, aud in a thick fog, which lasted all the time,
we reached Broad Cove, twel.o miles North of
Cape Rcco.
We then proceeded by land to Renews, which
we r pched on Friday last. I there obtained and
took charge of a small schooner which w i ‘And
bv the purser and myself and proceeded lajuie
diately in search ot tho’ wreck or the boats. We
‘rul ed round in a strong gale of wind from the
North Eaat, but discovcicd no trace of the ship or
boats. .
I sent word to Cagtain Leitch, of the City of
Philadelphia, steamer, acquainting him with the
catastrophe, and I am informed he sent iff two
vessels which he had employed about his own
ship.
Mr. Allan Goodridge, ofißenews, also sent away
a vessel on Saturday evening. It is with the deap
eat regret I have to report that no trace of the
Arctic or the beats could be found, but as there
were many vessels in the neighborhood where the
disaster occurred it is not at all improbable that
many lives may have been saved.

The Latest.
The Arctic Catastrophe—Further Particulars.
— Halifax, October 12 —We have dates from New
Fcundiand to the 4ih which announces the arrival
of the French screw steamer Vosia, at St. Johns,
on the 8d inst. with her foremast and bows shat
tered to pieces, she being the vessel that came in
collision with the Arctic. She picked up and
bronght into port 31 of the Arctic’s crew.
The Vesta lost 13 of her passengers, supposed
to be those who were run down by the Arctic in a
small boat.
Three of the Arctic’s boats have net yet. been
heard from, but being life boats, they are supposed
to have been picked up. The vessels sent in
Baarch returned on the 3d without success—not
having found tho slightest trace.
As regular communication between this and
New ioundland is but once a fortnight, that period
will probably elapse before we hear anything lur
ther with regard to those saved on board the Vesta.
It is probable, however, that tho steamer Osprey,
sect to convey the passengers of the City ot Phila
delphia to Philadelphia may stop here. She was
esp -c-ed to leave St. Johns on the B'h inst.
0. T. Mitchell, of’ Cha'lesion, S. C., is among
those saved, who left here with the others rescued
on the. Enropa.
New York, Oct. 11. —After carefully sifting all
the testimony, the agents of the Arctic entertain
strong hones, amounting almost to a certainty,

An official bulletin communicated to the Embas

the allies had intended the next day to attack an

been raised in the night, and the Russians fell
back upon the t >wn.
Twelve thousand Tartars had offered themselves
to the u’h is as volunteers, and their services were
accepted. .*
It was reported that the attack upon Sevastopol
had been fixed for tho 25th September.
The Russian fleet had been reconnoited in tho
port of Sevastopol by tho French steamship Na
poleon.

The Siege of Sevastopol.— lt is confirmed that
on the 13th S jpt. Eupatoria was occupied without
opposition by 2,000 Turks, 1,000 French and 1,000
English troops. The Russian garrison, numbering
400, surrendered at discretion. The advance
guard was under command of Prince Napoleon.
On the 14th the main army landed, unopposed,
half way between Eupatoria and Sevastopol—
horses, artillery and munitions—all satelv. The
Russians retired in good order as tho allies land
ed.
Menchikoff, who had his fcesdqurrters at Sim

the River Alma, where he awai’s reinforcements
to give battle to the allies.
It was confidently stated on the Paris Boursethat
on th 19th the allies and Russians met and a battle
ensued. The French came first into action, tho
English soon came up, and the Russians retired
with much lo a s. If true, this occurring on the
19th could only have been sk.rmishing— not a bat
tle between the main armies.
T a Russian Embasssy at Vienna had received
a dispatch dated the 22d from the Crimea, but all
that hud transpired was that it contained news
unfavorable to the Russians.
The latest dates from the Crimea (certain) is tho
19’.h, when the allies held the roud from Cape

after considerable struggling, rose to the surface,
and v/. s carried down a second time, and rose
again much exhausted. A portion of tho wheel
house struck his son’s head, killing him instant
ly. The scene was awful—the water was strewn
with men, women and children, screaming for
help—many sustained themselves by clinging to
pieces of the wreck. He and eleven others got on

all but three died. Two vessels hove in sight, but

Tho fact that the New Foundland papers, re
ceived Lt. Boston, of tho sih in t., make no men
tion of tne Vesta’s havir.g rescued any of the pas
