Mr. William Baahlam, 21 officer of the Arctic saya ' hat the Merlin, wli-ch landed Mr. Baahlaul aaa ius company at Halifax, was fourteen or fifteen houra cniising whore the accident took place. They instituted the search ut the instance of Mr. Baahlam. When the collision took place, the Arctic’s speed was twelve and a half miles an hour the usual rate in foggy weather. All due vigi wis cixnrcised. On the forecastle wero sta ti. ned two men on the constant lookout to avert inv possibility of « o. I.is’HU, or ot er accident At tbs time of the accident there were on deck iwo officers besides Mr. F .ablam. It was not a moment after the other vessel was seen b lore the collision took phtco. There was very great consternation. Immediate order was given to hard starboard tho helm and reverse the engine. The water was discovered pouring in below, and Mr. Baahleru was ordered down to stop the leak. The effort to do so was of no avail. As to the question why so many saved wero of the crew, and so few passengers, Mr. Baahlam states in explanation that Captain Luos ordered him to jump into a boat, which he did with three others. They had no Booner touched tho water than they wore surrounded with numbers who had jumped overboard, aud wore struggling for life. He says they did not stop to notice who and what they were, but tilled their boat. Another beat was also lowered, aud immediately filled. The two had all they could contain. They could do i o more, at.d with severest inner struggle they left the otliar-i, whom they could not save, to the deep. Ho sajs he left when he did at the irnpera- j tivo command of Captain Luce. The Times says that Mr. Baahlam’s conduct in i connection with the rescue of tho crew and passen i gersot the ship Ocean Monarch, a few yeurssince, is ioo f- sh in the recollect on of many hearts to warrant snspici'-n of selfishness or inhumanity on bis part. Captain I.‘itch, of the Europe, when they strived at Halifax, in the kindest man er po. - ble gave Mr. Baahlam and iiis men a passage t > Bat a. Mr. Btahlam says there is no doubt that Mi • Colons was drowned, as there are many surviving who witnessed her death. This s u imerit is corroborated by M. Dupas f iur, one of tL•• Fr -neb passengers saved, who informs the Co-ii roes li;atsU-is tha* C fain Luca j Mrs. Collin*, her children and j .-‘th’-r passengers on board the boat near in !.

The boat was pro : i: .1 rated nearly poroeudicuiariy, and all who were 1 i;. it, excepting three persons, wero thrown into ; l! t sea. At such aai me t a misfortune like ;his j was without a rcu -by. Ti.o overhauling of the i boat, now empty, wa- :-.ohioved, and it was inipos* iV.:■ -to reg'iia n her dea.iuy Passengers and sail j ors with uiecvrenn.iiy jumped i to tho boat, which ! w.-in a few seconds tilled.

Dobbs, and Du j laquais, (servant ot M. lo Due de Grammont), w -o api.y iHioogh to find pine sin this boat. M. le Due de Grammont himself tried to jump, ■ but tell into the >ce, and would have immediately ! perished, b-u it not been tor his servant, who bv u i’Uj .-rhuman cil’jrt hoisted him on board. Da ta sis himself regained the b«: by means of a r< : o, 'nviting his master to toliow his example, but the be t had already got under way. Dulaquaia ma lea greft jump, and fell hko an inert mass in the boat. M. de Grammont did net ft el strong en oogh to imitate ‘.'in. or be would not have allowed b p.’f-st precious minute which separated safety tr-a. dea'n. The yo-.mg Duke, M. Gnynet, ..nd Mr. Brown’s f.. iriy, were the last persons tl;at M. Dnpasseur pcfCv, Ved on tiia srernof tho steamer at the mo i when the boat parsed around Die ship. M. D ipasseur was the twe ty fifth person in the b oa*, sod the lea*t movement might have re snltel in the npsettiug ot the boat. Fortunately, t ro.!.'»•:? to the starboard side they met the boat i ot lilr. Baahie.rn, and were lightened of six per !-r :is This officer otiered to take the commana for j tl o gent-mi safety. A few moments after the Arc I • , :ow n andoned to the caprice of the sea, and : hw ng already twelve lee- of water iu her hold, i Wits OUt of si.' d. M.

It * thought that mod of these took r»fnge in one of the boats, whoso fate is not yet known. There w ore also ou 1 d the Arctic the following named French residents ot Hew Orleans : Messieurs. E-nes.

The Boston Transcript of last evening says : The passengers report that at the moment of the coHDon, the Arctic was fin the top of a long wa •(, while the Yes'a was in what is ca.led “the t >ugii*’ of the sea, so that the Arctic was injured below her wa*er line.

Offioe of the Lew Yorr, Newfoundland ) q Y ivb Vj iKLEGHAf-jx Company, [• St. JuHns, Tuesday, Oet. 3, 1854. ) Capt. S. G. Sluyter, Steamer Victoria--Dear Sir—Referring to your conversation, the’m«poc ti.>ti of the chart, and to your recollection of the winds that have prevailed during our vovsire winch termijifltad at this port last night with re gard to the probable present position of the boats which are said to have left the ill fated steamer Arctic soon alter her collision with the steamer Vesta, 1 have to request that you will, as soon as you can tako in the necessary supply ot coal, pro ceed with the steamer Victoria to such places as you may deem it judicious to begin the search, and continue the same in such direction, to such distance, and for such length ot time, as shall satisfy you that it is hopeless—having also duo regard to the safety of your own vessel and crew, and to the reservation of a sufficient quantity of coal to last back to this port. Lot the glorious hope ot reaching the sufferers cheer and animate you to achieve their deliverance. Very truly, yours, Chan runt White. On the o', her hand, the St, Johns Ledger stutes that “ no expense has beon spared in the search, and the exertions of Mr. Newmun, the American Consul, are worthy of all praise.” And the Bos ton Journal says: Mr. Johnson, one of the passengers by the wrecked steamer City of Philadelphia, who arriv ed from St. Johns, via Halifax in the Europa, states that to tho best ol his knowledge the American consul did exort himself in behalf of the sufferers by the Arctic. He is not acquainted with all the facta in the case, but he was informed that tho cousul applied immediately to tiie agent of the telegraph company to charter the s‘earner Victoria, but was met by a reply that he could only have the steamer by paying SSOO per day. Deeming the sum exorbitant, lie immediately despatched a sail ing vessel in quest of the Arctic, aad the agent of tho telegraph company afterward sent out the Vic toria upon hii own responsibility. Mr. Johnson sa.a that Mr. Newman exerted himself to the utmost to provide for the sufferers of the wrecked Btt umerC ty of Philadelphia, n- d to rave property. He waa also informed by tho survivors <>! trie Arctic, with whom Lo came in-m Newfoundland, that tho consul bad treated them iu the most humane manner, paid every uUeut on to them, summed them with clothing, and promo ted their comfort in ev iy way in his power. Our informant thin s that the report to tho discredit <d tho consul, which appeared in the tit. Johns paper, originated f otu personal ill will. Mr. Johnson slat a that the iouvii steamer Ves tu ? which was in contact with the Arctic, reported upon arrival at St. Johns, N, ¥., that the Arctic hail run into her, and had suited away without stopping to ascertain what damage wm- done—bid ding them good-bye cheering. This repo s created much feeling and prejudice at St. Johns, and the survivors ot the Arctic were relused ac- Ct'muiodution at the principal ho.el in the piaco (French.) Much credit is due to the American consul at Sydney, C. 8., who, upon hearing of tho disaster hastened to be. Johns, and tendered every assist ance. Tho fact is that there arc so many discrepancies in the various statements, not only as to the con d ct of tho American consul, but as lo tho fate of Mrs. Collius and her family, and other passengers, ■ that it is useless to attempt to reconcile them, and it is difficult to deeid which to believe. One ol tho second class passengers who wins saved, declared at Mr. Collin’s office this morning that be mw Mrs. Ciliins in one of tho bo.v which put off from tho wrocU. Hope, therefore, still re mCns in respect to that lady. Cjitotucir tic THIRMJKV MOHUVIKU OCTOBER 111, 1*64. Meeilng or the liomt or He Hit. Council Chamber, I Oct. 18, 8 o’clock, I’.
