Toms, of Columbia, was among the number of personsdrownedon board the steam er Horae. His name was notin the list of passen gers. Thfl St. Louis Bulletin of the 23d ult., states steamboat St. Peters had arrived at St. Louis from the mouth of the Kansas River, laden will) furs and peltries, belonging to the American Fur'Company, amounting to upwards of $50,000' jfGxfhing of much importance in the character ofnelps has been received by this arrival. A gentljhnan who left the Mountains recently, stales that the Indians, in all that region, were quiet, and (Apparently friendly. The trappers, too, seem -to havc bem successful the past season, and were pursuing their business with increa ed energy and I It appears by the accounts by the packet ship Oxkbrd, that the weather had been fine in Eng- Scotland and Ireland, and the apprehensions been entertained in reference to the cratt had been disappointed. aHpme malicious and designing person or per «qt|phavo been placing obstructions on the Geo. ’ trlßm||Boar!, and but for the vigilent and watchful attention of the Superintcndant and Engineer, an accident might have occurred. This ofienco is putrtriable by our laws with imprisonment in the Penitentiary for a term of years, discretionary, over thjrce. But an individual, who in cold blood wonld bc guilty of an act of this kind, has little regard for Ihe punishment which awaits him if defected. For that reason, the penalty should be greater. It is no loss a crime than burning of a house, or robbing the mail, both of which offen ces are punishable by death. Therefore we think that thd offence in question should also be pun ishablc by death. In our opinion until such is the case, there will ho a continuation of these villages. —Peoples Press of this morning. ThetPhiladelphia Herald of Oct. 31, has an article !jn favor of the establishment of a Coast Squadron, which merits attention. It proposes that the Squadron should bo constantly employ ed in cruizing along the coast for the protection of our Commerce, and that in connexion with the plan there should be established a school ship in each of the principle seaports, for the purpose of fitting such boys, from the age ol 10 to six teen, a* might bo disposed, for a seafearing life. The plan proposes that on board this ship she!' ho kept a school for the education of these b . and that they shall be well instructed in the ous rudiments of reading, writing, arithmetic, navigation, &c., so as to bo competent to take charge of a merchant vessel. The vessel on which they were aboard, would of course, occa sionally make a short cruise along the coast, with the view of practising the boys in seaman ship and giving them a practical knowledge ot their business. The school and Ship should be placed under the charge of some judicious officer of the Kavy, who would take pride in training these juvenile sailors, and in making them worthy defenders of their country ; and who would also have a care of their moral improvement, for it should be a cardinal point, in the establishment of these schools, to preserve the boys from vice and temptation of every kind. It may be doubted by many wither parents and guaadians could bo induced to place their children and wards in such a situation, and whe ther a sufficient number of boys could be obtain ed to warrant the expense of keeping up the school. But we have no doubt on the subject; if the school were established and conducted upon a judicious plan, if it were made respectable by Ihe character of its officers, and were parents and guardians assured that the morals of their children and wards would be strictly guarded, and the boys kept from the contamination of vice, there Would be no lack of applicants for admis sion. Indeed, let any one look at the number of lads that are now idle, or worse than idle, about our streets and wharves, and who, by associating with the vicious and depraved older than them selves, soon learn the ways of the wicked and become adepts therein, —and tell us whether the parents pf these youngsters would not rejoice at the oppolunily of placing them where they could not grow up in ignorance and vice, useless to themselves, a disgrace to their connexions and a burden to the community. We ar| indebted for our ideas upon this subject to a distinguished officer of our navy, who has the subject so much at heart that he declares himself ready and willing, if government will adopt the plan, to devote the remainder of his life to it, be lieving that he could therein renJi r a most im portant service to his country, and to thousands of individuals endowed by nature with all the re . quisiteenecessary to make useful men, who would -otherwise, perhaps, finally end t(»eir days in igr.„ «ny.

M. the schooner was lying to under double reefed fore-sail, with the bonnet out, it then blowing a heavy gale from N N E wo judg ed Charleston Light to bear N by W. In 14 fathoms water, the schoouer on the larboard tack, while at supper, the Mato on the look out, dis covered a ship within two or three hundred yards .of us, which was as far as we could see, it being / very dark and misty. The ship coming down upon us, the Male sung out “part the helm hard a weather.” The helm was cut from the lee becket and put up, but the ship coming so fast upon us, we found we could not clear her by fecring, we shifted the helm to leeward again, and sung out to the ship to bear away but they not healing us, she continued her course and struck u» on the starboard beam, abaft the fore chains, cut us down to the water’s edge. She backed her topsails, and tendered us all the assist ance she could; finally she carried away the main rigging on the starboard side. All the crew and one passenger made their escape over the ship’s bows. In about 10 minutes after the ship backed astern, the mainmast went close to the deck, broke it two pieces,our foresail was torn to pieces by the ship’s *jib boom. The ship proved to be the Thos. Bennett, Captain Hague, from Liver pool, bound to Charleston. Previous to the dis aster, the schooner was leaking—tried the pumps every half hour, which we found sufficient to keep her (tec. The ship stood on her course, but the next morning tacked and stood fur the West —lowered away her boat—lhe Male of the s •hoon*‘«ml the 2d Mate of the ship and three men, bounded i[ lo schooner, found her full of water, stern torn away, cabin deck washed off, and truks floating about the cabin The passen ger succeeded in saving part of his money and clothing but the rest of us saved nothing hut what we stood in, with few exceptions.— This morning the sea ran very high; wo found it very difficult to board the wreck, but lltc wind had hauled there to the Westward; the ship not being able to stay by the wreck, wo were compelled to abandon bed, as it was not safe to remain on board of tier, without some vessel to slay by her; so tVe concluded to remain on hoard the ship until we could gel some vessel to go with us to the wreck, ami to save what we could, or to gel her in if possible, At IP.

The party of friendly Indians, despatched by the Governor a week or two since, to scout the country lying between the Ocklockonce and Ap alachicola livers, have returned without discov ering any Indian signs. Their rouie extended along the Ocklockonce to the Sea shore, and ac ross the country to Fort Gadsden, completing a circle of that part of the Territory; and could not have failed of falling upon the trail if any Indians frequented thalscction. We learn, however, that a few days since, the camp of a party of hostile Creeks, supposed to number 60 or 70, was fallen, in with, near the Chipola swamp on the west side of the Apalachicola. The Indians fled, and the want of provisions and a sufficient force preven ted a further pursuit. The Governor is organi z ng a fircc sufficient to capture them it they can again be found, who will march in a day or two. —Tallahassee Floridian, Oct. 28. From the Nem York Commercial Adv.

The steamboat Columbus, from Norfolk, due on Nonday, did not reach here until yesterday about noon, having been prevented from leaving Norfolk at her regular time in consequence of the prevalence of a heavy blow. A slip from the Norfolk Beacon, dated on Monday, has the fol lowing: A Gale.— “ The wind has been blowing strong ly from the North for three days, but on Saturday night it veered North East, and blew a regular gale. Tides are high in the Borough, and some damage will be sustained. We apprehend some difficulty in the case of vessels on the North Car o:;.aa c Sat.” ifn that during the gale at Norfolk the ■ o of Mr. Myer Myers, containing a large qa Aitity of merchandise just landed from a vessel from the West Indies, fell down, supposed in consequence of being undermined by the tide, which had risen considerably above its ordinary level. The warehouse was situated near the wa ter, into which most of the goods were precipita ted, and must of course have sustained injury. The steam packets Pulaski and South Carolina, both duo at Norfolk from Charleston, had notar rived when the Columbus left. It is supposed that they had put into Smithville, N.

Encroachment of Russia on Mexico.— A Mexican paper slates that the Russians are si lently extending their possessions on the North Western coast of America, and thus encroach ing on Mexican Territory. Formerly, the Rus sian possessions did not extend beyond Noolka. that is to say, 40° 23' of the same latitude; thus the Russians have usurped nearly two hundred and eighty leagues of territory, and now must be at the mission of San Francisco, or within sixty leagues of Monterey, capital of Upper California. In 1834, Russia had already nine fortified posts upon the coast; and kept in the ports of Archan gel and of Bodega, 2 frigates, 2 brigs, and a still greater number of smaller armed vessels. Snow. —The tops of the hills in Fenango county, Penn., were completely mantled with snow on the morning of I7lh Oct. In some parts of the county, it was two inches deep, and did not disappear for two days.— Phil. Sentinel. From the Charleston Mercury. STEAM PACKET HOME. We have obtained the whole proceedings of'.he Committee appointed at a meeting of our citizens, on the subject of the loss of the steam packet Home, and give them entire to owe readers this morning. We learn that ; they are to bn published in pamphlet form i under the direction of Council. TO THE HON. THE CITY COUNC' T OF CHARLESTON. 1 r Oomm“ iCtJ a pp o i llte( i by a meeting of citizens to investigate the causes of the loss of the steam packet Home, and lor the other purposes set forth in the resolution under which they act, beg leave respectfully to REPORT: That in compliance with the instructions of their fellow citizens, they immediately pro ceeded to the discharge of the duties assigned them, and on Saturday evening held a meet ing in the Council Cha i.ber, which was con tinued by adjournment this day. Capt. Sui ter, Mr. Lovegreen, Capt. Hill, Mr. Hussey, and Mr. Charles Drayton, five of the passen gers of the Home, appeared before them, and, upon a full and careful examination, gave the testimony which is hereunto annexed, in Ike very words in which the leslimony was received —in order that the accuracy of any judgment •r opinion which your Commits e might form on this deeply interesting subject, may be tes ted by a ready reference to the evidence on which it is founded, and that the world at large and the parties to whom that evidence affixes the crime ofgross neglect, in a matter in which the life and happiness of their fellow inert was so entirely dependent on their good faith, and from which has arisen such a mass of human suffering, tray see that in giving utterance to the voice of a violated, insulted, and injured humanity, your Committee have not deviated from the path of truth and jus tice. Testimony of the Witnesses . Satubday Evening, Oct. 21,1837. The Committee appointed hy a meeting of the citizens, this day met at the Council Chamber. Present—Joshua W. Tootner, James Lynah, Arthur P. Hayne. William Aiken, Henry, J. Hardy, A. G. Magralh, M. I. Keith, Rt. Rev. Dr. England, Thomas Dot lerer, Rev. Thomas Smyth, and Major Win. Laval. Capt. Salter—w.ts a passenger i ilhe Home. When she left New-York, the weather was fine--when the Captain lef.lie took apt lot, but ho dismissed the pilot before ho reached the Narrows. When oll'Sandy Hook he ran the vessel on snore —this was in the evening when day-light was in the sky, hav ing lelt the city about 4 o’clock, P. M,; boat lay ashore 4 ora hours till flood tide. Satur day night, weather good—Sunday forenoon, good—Sunday, P. M.—the sea began to rise —the wind North East. Sunday evening about 10 o’clock; Captain kept the lead going during this night—witness cautioned the Cap lain that he was steering wrong, S. S. W. and W. by S.—at daylight on Monday, found the vessel on lee shore —breakers on lee beam witness still expostulated—the land then made was 40 or 50 miles West of Cape Hut teras. The Captain then had to press the vessel by steam and canvass, and with a side wind, in the trough ot the sea —such was the press on the vessel, the witness considers this the cause of her springing a leak afterwards. After they had passed the Wimble shoals, Capt. S. advised Capt. V . to double the Shoals, and not go through the inner passage; lie did so; After they had doubled the Shoals, Capt. S. found they were steering N. N. W., and his reason was, that the vessel had sprung a leak—witness advised the course N. W. and that an immediate search be made as to the cause of the leak. After a search with the Cap tain in the fore hold,without discovery,witness Capt. Hill,& took up some of the flooring took 1 in the ladies’ cabin—they there found so much water, the trunks were afloat—he sent Cap ' tain Hill to muster the passengers to bail,and they formed a line —this was about 4 or 5 in the altcrnoon. Witness called on the Engineer, and ho said his pump was out of order —lie had pre viously told witness she could deliver 20 bar rels in a minute. And one hour aflerwards, the first male i came to witness, and hogged him to look after ; the helm, ho was sorry to say the Captain was intoxicated, if that is the case, (said wit ness) I’ll go and take charge ol the boat— went to the wheel-house—saw Capt. White who was laying down his head—he said,Capt. While, I have come to take charge of the boat, as the mate says you arc drunk. After some altercation, Capt. While yielded, and lay his head down on the Ice side. Witness then run the vessel on shore,as soon as he could see any place less affected with the surge, and alter Capt. Hill had told him the leak had increased so much that site would . soon founder. She stranded of a mile from the beach—the water was about a fool above the cabin floor. On reflection, when witness took charge of the boat, about 4 o’clock, the engine was working had, and on enquiry, lie was told by the Engineer that the water from the leak was extinguishing the fire, and it soon did so* and it was two or three hours before the vessel stranded, that they had no use ol the steam. Was there any cause in your view, to cause the defect of the pump at the lime of the leak? He did not know. The common pumps were going all along, hy the aid of thepassen gers. As to the structure of the boat, he saw so much of herjdcfuct, that he was satisfied bo fore her wreck that she was badly built. Redoes not think that the grounding on the Hook caused the leak—hut the clawing off the leek shore with a gale, not sufficient to leak a good vessel —He thinks now the Cap tain intoxicated more or less, ever since he left New York, as no man in his sober senses would run down with a N. E. wind. This impression is derived from a review of all that has happened. From the manner of her bearing at sea, and the rapid manner in which it was broke to pieces—he considers her imperfect structure undoubted. A good and fathlully built vessel was not so soon to be broke to pieces—she broke up entire y in about one hour. The three boats could not in calm weather have accommodated more than 30 passengers —he thinks the leak could have been kept down if the pump had been in order. Mr. Lovegreen—Five minutes alter 4 o’clock left. New York —20 minutes after 5 o’clock struck on the middle ground—Capt. made no effort to back her off, hut to press her forward —one of the boilers, for some cause hot known, was much out of order. At about 9 o’clock perceived a Pilot abroad—2o before 11 got off the ground by the paddles—tiie Pilot said we had better return to Now York--the circle round the moon—the storm was brew ing and the Pilot used some expressions to the Captain. This Pilot come on hoard after the vessel got on shore—the Pilot continued till they crossed Sandy Hook, and when he was , about to leave the vessel, witness asked him to take him with him if he was going direct to New-York, as lie expected a storm, and did not wish to stay on board the vessel; hut as pilot intended to stay out, he remained on hoard. i Made good progress till 12 o’clock M. on • Sunday—strong breeze N. E. increase, till , sunset —gale then commencing. | Monday morning—heavy topping seas— . labored very much—braces broken, panel doors, &c. tumbling out of their places. All the upepr works working nut of **•-'_ 0 »... the boat i—.-ce— I D serpentine motion—wit? j 7,ess requested Capt. to turn into the Chesa peake to Hampton Roads, as he thought the - gale would continue 48 hours—Capt. said no, he would proceed along the coast, as the ' weather would moderate. r Made “false Capo” between 11 and 12 o’- clock, A. M. kept to the wind, about S. S. E. —got among the breakers on the Wimble , Shoals at about 1 o’clock,P. M. —severe break , ers tumbling towards them, Capt. White said I it is ail over. Witness said no—hoist the gib, and he • made the mate and 2 men hoist it. The bout • cleared the shoales, and threw her into the , trough of the sea, S. E. and hy B. which rack ed the boat, and caused her to leofc, when , the true course was S. and by W. as he be lieves. Next notice was the sounding on Capo Hat teras, 10 fathom on the outer shoals, about 5 o’clock. In the mean time, witness got all the boats ready for use. Deepened water to 15 fathom —2O and 23 fathoms —Boat leaking—brought her up to N N W. Capt Salter then took the command and bore off N W, under lee of Hatters shoals. Wind moderating. Witness seeing vessel in sight, wished to hoist u signal of distress. Nothing dune.— Capt White incapable of duty. Capt Hill desired all the passengers to come to the pumps. The after scult off’— holes cut in the cabin floor—buckets in the forward hold; and crew bailing—wood and all loose articles, Coal, &c. thrown overboard. Witness desired Mr.jHunt, chief Engineer, to put all wood and no coal under the boiler. About 8 o’clock the water rose so high as to extinguish the fire ’under Iter bifliers. The Engine stopped. Mr. Matthews and Capt. Salters were requested to hoist the jib and square sail, which was all in tatters.— Witness hove the lead—9 fathoms ot water; Capt White being close hy, said what water have you got Capt W—answer, 13 fathoms— Witness replied only 9—Sir, you do not know what you arc about. Water rose above the cabin floor—witnes dosirtd Mr Mathews, Mr Hunt, Mr Graham, 2d male, and one a.iilo(, to lower the larboard boat, which they were willing to do, but dread ed the flocking of the passengers and swap ing it He advised to have all the boats low ered before they got into the breakers, which would save 40 souls. But nothing was done till they struck the breakers —2 breakers filled the starboard quarter boat—witness desired a sailor uod 2d mate to lower tije larboard quarter boat —a surge upset her and drowned the sailor —witness retired to the quarter dock. The barge behind Ittiinclcd»seven passCtl sengers, the two mates and the steward went with the boat—as soon as she struck the surf, they were instantly thrown up from the boat ami the boat capsized. Ail the paisengers on the upper deck. Capt White was making no exertions for the rescue of the crew. Vessel broke up piece hy piece. In about 15 minutes after she struck, the forward part ot the vessel broke off from the rest. The top gallant forecastle broke loose and 7 per sons were launched on it towards the shore. Tne after part gave way piece by piece, ami in 25 minutes she was a total wreck. Wit ness rung the boll as a signal of distress, 'The first notice witnesj look of Captain White’s behavior to give the impression of intoxication was on the shoals—in the after noon. From all that lie saw on this trip and what ho saw at the lime of her launch, that site was unscawortliy—her structure was wrong—being so long she could not stand Ilia sea. Mr. Hussy agrees with Gap. Salters in his statement up to the time wc got up to “False Capo”—He is under the impression that the ves sel began to leak earlier in the day, amt he thinks that the pump kept her clear so as not to lio no ticed till the afternoon. On Sunday night and Monday morning, pas sengers in the upper berths, in the alter cabin, complained of the vessel’s leaking through the upper seams—the person near him, was vety wot, and many ladies complained of being drench cd with water —much complaint from the forward cabin. Did not observe Ihe Captain's conduct on Monday,as he did not scejhirn’in any pait of the vessel in which ho happened to be—except once. On Monday morning the boat seemed a good deal out of order—that is the upper works, were out of their places and breaking—much of the ceiling of tho mates’ apartments and other officers were tumbling down. Tho bows of the boat moved up and down, about 8 or 10 inches, and it would rise or fall on tho wave. Tho hailing was incessant—was no doubt the crew would have been safe in the Norfolk boats, or in the Columbia—as he has been in several storms—and therefore he attributes the catastro phe to the unseaworth ness of the boat and the want of skill in the Captain—and not to the vio lence of the storm. Before they sailed many expressed their opini ons that she was nut a strong boat. Committee adjourned till Morning next, at 10 o’clock. MONDAY, 23J OCT. 1837. J. W. Toomer, Chairman, Judge Lee, Rl. Rev. Dr. England, Henry J. Harby, James I.y nah, Win. Aiken, A. G. Magralh, Thomas Uotleror, Win. Laval, Rev. Thomas Smyth, M. I. Keith, A. P. Hayne. Mr. Charles Diiatton—Was a passenger on hoard the Home, 7th Oct. 1837—Tho first notice ho look of the boat was when [she went aground on the Middle ground in tho harbour of Ycw-York. Some short time after they got aground, witness observed great confusion on board—a great smoke issuing from the furnace' and men were carrying buckets of water—Tire witness ’apprehended that the vessel had taken lire—hut the Captain said it was only an accident to one of tho cocks—and the consequent escape of the water. No further matter occurred worthy of notice—but the vessel lay aground about 4 or 5 hours. During Saturday night and Sunday till about noon nothing remarkable occurred—when the wind li3gan to freshen, and the gale commenced. The vessel continued on her course—on Sunday nijhl, between 10 and 12 o’clock, witness with the other passengers were alarmed by the violent cracking of the vessel—on reaching the deck, to which many of tho passengers hurried, witness found every thing in much disorder in particular, he observed the braces, running parallel with tho wheels fore and aft, had slipped out of their shoe—at both ends. The Kitchen house and upper works on the forward part of ihe vessel, all started. Things went on in this way till the following day (Monday) about live o’clock in the afternoon off Halteras Shoals, when witness heard that in consequence of the incompetency, Captain, Salter had taken command of the boat —Captain S. and Captain Hill, then immediately examined into the condition of tho boat,and found she was in a very leaky condition. They immediately put all the passengers to the pumps but they found .the pumpsftincapablc of dis charging Ihe water fast enough, and they got buckets, which the passengers had to use—which they continued till a short time before they stran ded,at which lime tho water was two feel or more on the floor, He believes the Captain was drunk at the time he observed his conduct in the wheel house, And after the event ho appeared v.’Lile on the beach quite indifferent as to '„. i i He heard him expre" 'e T 1 * a IV enc ‘ l ’ . I .vo no feeling on the occa sion. The testimony of Captain Sailer being read to Captain Hill—Captain Hill, declared that he agreed lluly with the statement of Capt. Salter. Capt. Hill further staled, that he had been to sea for 13 years, and that ho never knew a Cap tain hefure, directing his course upon a lee shore, when he could possibly claw off, Captain Hill after examining the boat, docs not think that she wassca worthy—hardly fit to work in a river. That she was a ported wreck in twenty min utes after she struck, and that portions of her were scattered up and down the coast, for five or six miles, which could not have happened had she been built properly, and with good materials. That ho examined portions of the wreck, and that every part of her, as far as ho could judge, was badly pul together—that the ceilings and interior, generally, appeared to be made of briltly pine—when they should have been principally made of oak. That had the boat been properly built, and of good materials—she could have clawed off from Ihe shore—(though improperly put there) and weathered the gale, by putting her head to the sea with a little steam, without any danger, and without leaking. That if her pumps had been in order, she might have been kept afloat until mor ning, and no loss of lives have occurred. At three o’clock in the morning, on the even ing of which the disaster look place, while in his birth, he saw the Captain go to the bar to drink something out of a decanter, and that what he drank, appeared to ho colored. He saw about, half an hour afterwards, the first mate carry two tin cups ofliquor on deck to the crew, ho suppo sed, n cup for each watch. He firmly believes the Captain to have been drunk, and incapable of duty—that ire has seen men extremely alarmed and frightened, but that he never saw fear put.any man in the same situ ation in which tho Captain was placed—that he is certain that both bis conduct and appearance were not the result of fear, hut of intoxication— that his first grounding, off .Sandy Hook, was the result of great carclosnes'j, as it was broad day light. Ho never saw the Captain drink any tiling during the voyage, except Ihe drink refer red to on Monday morning. Ho could not say, however, that hia going on shore on Sandy Hook I was caused hy intoxication. He did not observe him particularly Iwforc Mopdgy, hepausc ho un derstood (lint lie was a sober man, and drank no,- , tiling—ho thinks from his going ashore on B.m --1 dy Hook, when it might have been so easily pre • vented, his directing his course on aloe shore du ring a storm, mid his whole subsequent conduct, . that he was altogether unfit for command —that i during the heavy part of the gale on Monday nf j lornoon, seeing that the boat was shipping heavy ; seas, lie suggested tile propriety of taking out s the bulwark’s, as ho was afraid the water would , go below, to the injury and inconvenience of Ihe j passengers, and danger of the boat; but that the , captain declined doing so, saying there was no danger—that two or three hours after, finding it necessary, ho took them out himself, forward, and | the captain then sent his hands to assist in taking them out aft—that after the destruction of the ’ boat, whet; on shore, tho captain did not marries*. ' that feeling which he should have supposed tho ! occasion would have called forth. In conclusion that the boat was not seaworthy, or that she r could have clawed off without material injury, and have weathered the gale. ‘ (Concluded on second page.) !
