Cuy- 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. Meeting or the Board of Health.

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.

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 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, that Mrs, Ooliins and a large number of other la dies were placed on one of the boats and r ifely launched under the immediate supervision of Oa,’.

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 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 pheropol, immediately advanced tc BuHirch, on 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 Baba to Simpheropol. It was intended to cross the Alma on the 19th, but Marshal St. Arnaud had telegraphed to Paris that there was an unavoida ble delay of two days—cause not Btated—which would prevent them marching till the 21 st. Fifteen sail-of the line were eff Sevastopol. A Russian courier who had been captured, stated that the whole Russian force was omy 45,000. Russian accounts of the 19 h say thal Geu.
