SCENES AT THE WRECK OE THE
ATLANTIC.
A Herald CorreipcndentDown Among
the Dead—TerribieLights Under the
Sea—A Female Sailor.
From the Herald’s Halifax letter
dated the 7th inst, we extract the fol
lowing graphic details:
Notwithstanding the weather has
been clear and calm ever since the
eventful disaster, the monster ship with
all her strength has slowly and constant
ly drifted to pieces. Divers, though
have worked their best and have recov
ered hundreds of the bodies of the un
fortunate victims. To look upon the
position of the sunken hull it becomes
more aod more incomprehensible how
it was ppesible for tfic vessel to have
been driven in where she now lies. It
is the opinio® of the fishermen* of the
locality that she struck on the Gram
pus Reef about half a mile east of the
scene, and ran along the reefs until she
brought up again-t the fatal rock. She
is lying on her port side, well under
water from amidships ; the hull is al-
;t abreast of the reef and forms a
sort of breakwater between it and the
shore of the island, which appears only
about forty yard* off. All that portion
of the hull from the forward hatch is
severed as completely as it hud bceo cut
with some piece of machinery. Ihe
sea has caused it to forge ahead thirty
feet or so, leaving a gap or passage way.
where the small boats are continually
running in and out and carrying curios
ity seekers •from the shore to the wreck
and back.
THE FATAL KOCK
looks close enough for one to leap on to
it from the forward part of the hull. It
is a small rock or rather that portion
of it which was above water, scarcely
the interior of the wreck. The waters
were clear and^ every object plainly vis
ible around the ship where she lay on
the reef* All around the objects looked
weird like; tb^glasscs in the casque
magnifying the already bloated forms in
to twice their size. The waters are
very cold, and A chilly feeling creeps
over me at first, but as 1 proceed it
wears away and I enter upon the task I
have undertaken with more nerv# than
I fancied I possessed. The immense
hull lies well down on the port side,
which is broken in several places from
contact with the reef. Fish were swim
ming around eagerly devouring the par
ticles of food which are to be picked up.
Picking ray way towards the hull I
catch hold of a rope and scramble up
the deck. The place where I have de-
cended is where the ship parted and a
sectional view of the hull and cargo in
obtained. The forward hatch is open
and I peer down the hold.
Oil ! WHAT A SPECTACLE
is presented! The cargo has broken
bulk and lay heaped up in a confused
mass;*bodies of men a women, bruised
and torn, were jammed among the cases
and crates. It is a horrible sight to
look upon, and the magnifying power
of the orbs through which I gaze upon
it renders it all the more horrible.
Fishes swim in andjmt among the bod
ies and boxes, facing upon the bodies
of the dead. Limbs are strewn around,
having broken off from the body from
the continual action of the waters, which,
when agitated, drive against the ugly
pieces of the broken hull that stick up
here and render my movements very
hazardous. Having seen enough of
this part of the sunken horror, I pro
ceed towards one of

A case in point has recently oc
curred. Falmouth is a town in
Cornwall, England, near the well-
known Lizard Point, and not far
from the Eddystone Lighthouse. The
rectory of this place is worth about
$10,000 a year, and is increasing in
value. The ingumbent is in his sev
enty-seventh year, and the income of
the Church property is constantly
increasing. Charles II. gave “the
parson of the parish and his succes”
sers. lorever” the right to a portion ot
the earnings ot the inhabitants of
the town, in the sdape of a tax of
about thirty-five cents a year on all
houses, shops, warehouses, cellars,

thereafter to he built. Besides this,
there are tithes and surplice fees,
and what, are known as the Black

The-town tliought of trying to buy
the fiectory, and thus free itself in

legal authorities have decided that
they can n^ycr be got rid of.
At the recent auction the sale was
started at about $30,000, and rose
by slow bids to $45,000. The auc
tioneer urged tlie value of the in

to the Borrow of the sea. In that week
2000 men were drowned. The sinkipg
of the Royal G eorge off Spithead, in
1672 when Admiral Keinpeafeldt went
down with his GOO men, was long cele
brated in song and story as the great
catstrophe by sea for many generations.
The wrecking of the Royal Charter, on
the Aaglesea coast, in 1749, when 446
lives and much treasure were lost, seut
a thrill of horror throughout the civil
ized world. The same year, too, the
Pomona was cast away on Black-water
Bank, and 385 men were drowned. The
Austria, burned in mid ocean the year
before, lost 4C1 persons. On the Pacific,
which disappeared in 1856, there
were 186 people; and on the City ef
Glasgow never heard of sisee 1854,
there were 480. Of the Arctic, we in
America have still sorrowful recollec
tions; 300 men, women and children
were lost on that ship, off the coast of
Newfoundland, iu 1854. On the same
dead lino of coast the Hungarian, with
220 people, was cast away in 1866. The
sinking of the North fleet in the English
Channel, last January, was the largest

now record. By the wreck of the North

Horrible Accident in the Portsmouth

A frightful accident occurred in the
new Yards and Docks carpenter shop in
the navy yard yesterday mornning
about 10 o’clock. Mr. Aadrew Sweeny,
an old and respe<Sed citizen of New
town, who has of lato been employed as
helper on the circular saw table, while
the saw was stopped, after the band had
been thrown- off incautiously crawled
under the table to secure some cedar
sawdust, and his head, coming in con
tact with the revolving saw, was eaught
in the teeth and cut in a fearful manuer,
Ilis hat was torn into shreds, and enter
ing the top of the head, assisted iu cut

kiches. The gash went clean through
to the skull, exposing the brain to view.
The unfortunate man had his injuries
tenderly cared for by Surgeon Bates;
after which he was carried home, in
Newtown,, and now lies in an extremely
critical and suffering condition. In
