Raised by a penny subscription. The friends to medical liberty throughout the w irld will be glad to hear that tbis monument has been erected, recording as it does some most important facts. It consists of a true British lion, raised on a . splendid block of Aberdeen granite, that boiriz the birthplace of James Morison, the Hvgeist. The lion upholds with d'gnity the Hygeian system of medicine, as follows :- 1. The vital principle is in the blood. 2. Everything in the body Is derived from the blood. 3. All constitutions are radically the same. 4. All diseases arise from impurity of the blood. 5. Pain and disease have the same origin. 6. From the intimate connection subsisting between mind and body, the health of the one must conduce to the serenity of the other. 7. Proper vegetable purgation is the only medicinal mode for effec tually eradicating disease. 8. The discovery of a vegetable medicine was a desideratum. 9. This discovery was made by James Morison, the Hygeist, who also proclaimed " the medical liberty of the subject." On the right side of the stone is engraved the following :—" Mori son was the first to protest against bleeding and the use of poisons as medi:lnes." On the left side appears a record of the presentation to Parliament of the following Hygeian petitions :—" In IS4 t a petlil agsinst pharmaceuttal poisons signed by 19 , 950 persons. In 1851 a petition against Latin prescriptions, signed by 3,331 persons." At the b sck of the stone are the arms of the Morison family in bronze. W e say these are impo•tant facts which nothing can shake—they concern every one. The British College of Health hereby return tr anks to John Fraser, of Edinburgh, to James liibrert, of Moriches r. and to J. W. ilavil, of Exeter, for the deep interest which the) took in the erection of this monument.

Wentz ell's pair•oared race, annually a feature of inte rest amongst amateur rowers, was contested yesterday, and Lambeth was consequently throughout the after noon till dusk a scene of bustle and animation, which bespoke the interest felt in the tradesmen's regatta. Amongst this class of aquatic men there are many ex tremely proficient oarsmen and scullers, and V'7entzell's irtgaWserfrona 4444111ishmeittp , exhi bi tireb-, class sport. The prizes were two pairs of silver vases, both valuable and pretty ; and the rival competitors had for some days previously endeavoured to get themselves by close attention to exercise into the best possible con dition to carry them off. _ _ First Heat.

A very excellent start, under the direction of the vete ran C. Newnham, who was umpire, was succeeded by Red taking a slight lead, closely waited upon by Light Blue. They continued in this order for a short distance, but the pace of Light Blue was too good for their oppo nents, and the latter soon found themselves in the second place.

In the start the men all went off together, then Red and Blue * advanced in front, and a more extraordinary race was never seen. They passed and re-passed one another three times in the course downwards, and then Red led all the way up, closely pressed by Blue. In the round ing, the latter most scientifically beat the former off and were leading by three quarters of a length, when Mr. Neanham's rudder becoming jammed he unfortunately fouled Blue, and it *al ultunately very properly de cided that red and Blue should rowlagain, but R. Ayck bourne having hurt his hand the race was deferred. GREENWICH REGATTA. This old-established well-conducted regatta, which is under the distinguished patronage of the Right Hon. Earl Fitzhardinge, the Lord Mayor, Sir T. M. Wilson, Bart., Montagu %ambers, Lg., M.P., and several ether noblemen and gentlemen, came off yesterday, un• der the capital management of William Thomas, ably assisted by his galley crew. Most liberal prizes were g iven, viz., a boat, value 24/. for the first man, and money prizes, amounting to 13/., to all the others, the above being rowed for by six watermen of Greenwich in five heats. Owing to the beautiful day, and the general attractions of Greenwich, many thousands col lected to witness the match, the whole length of the town being perfectly alive with human beings, in addi tion to which a great many boats were out, and several yachts, dressed out in bunting, amongst which we no ticed Earl Fitzbardinge's cutter Imogene.

The affidavit on which the above arrest was effected was made by Andrew Wilson, one of the crew of the Altivie, bslonging to Reis. Wilson's statement; which we take frien the New York Times, is as follows :---I arrived in Boston in July, 1855, from a three whaling voyage. The money in which I bad been paid off—as the wages of sailors generally do—soon disappeared, and I was obliged to go again ti B*3. I sngaged 4s seaman on Eo trci the schooner Maiy E. Smith ; the captain told me the yes eel was going to Monte Video, South America. We were not many days out before I discovered that the destina tion of the vessel had be, n misreeresent:d to me, and, instead of going to South America, she was bound to the Coast of Africa nn a slaving expedition. I found that the same imposition had been practised upon nearly all the crew; the second mate, among the rove was im posed upon. The captain tried to smooth the deception over—said he was obliged to take this course, otherwise it would be nearly impossible to make out a crew. As the best satisfaction he could offer, he promised us all -good wages ; this latter proffer acted as a salve to most, for the pay promised seemed fabulous in amount ; the agreement with ordinary seamen. was t,',800, to go to the Gast of Africa and thencs to Cuba, from which place the passage of each would be paid home ; in addi ton to this, each was to have the privileee of taking two negroes to Cuba to sell. Sailor that I was, I had too much of the New England blood in rr.y veins to sell myself to engage in the slave traffic ; as I was situated, however, I could do nothing ; else but seemingly acqui esce ; the second mate, I ascertained, felt as I did. Be fore reaching the Coast of Africa some lumber on board was converted into a slave-deck, and everything pre- Pared for the negroes' reception. Great care was taken zo-kitaxiinthaLAlAntrsabotplA, , There were several kinds of flags on board, of die rent countries, to hoist as was deemed most judicious. Guns and munitions for defence were on board to use in case of attack or other emergency. The Mary Smith landed at Cape Padron, on the Ooast of Africa ' and immediately set about getting a cargo of slaves. Before the entire cargo was taken on board the second mate and myself deserted from the ship and went to a slave factory, or barracoon, as it is generally called, eight miles south of Cape Padron; we here represented that the cause of our desertion was cruel treatment from the captain of the vessel we had left. The Mary Smith soon sailed, and it was lucky that, in the case of the mate and myself, princip'e overcame avarice, for the schooner, as I have since learnt, was sub sequently captured by a Brazilian man-of-war off Brazil, where the captain and crew are at present imprisoned. The barracoon where the mite and I were received was under the charge of a Mr. Farrel, who was employed as the agent of a large merchant in Lisbon, Portugal. Shortly after my arrival here the mate died ; I tarried there two months and a half, and during this time had full opportunity to learn the manner in which the traffic in negroes is carried on. This barracoon, like all other barracoons on the coast of Africa, was situated in a spot as little liable to observation from the sea as possible ; this was to prevent the detection of the locality by cruising vessels along the coast ; the barrac 'on was a roughly-constructed affair, and corn prised two apart ments, one for the negro males and the other fir the women and children ; each apartment was over 400 feet long, by 30 feet wide, with a space intervening of about 75 feet. Each structure was raised somewhat from the ground to prevent damage from the inundatisns to which the land near the sea-shore is liable. The sides and roofs were thatched. In the two buildings, I was told, there were sometimes 1,000 negroes. The number depends upon the luck of getting in, a stock, and the frequency of slavers landing on the c cast. Tile way the negroes are obtained is by a regular system of traffic. Persons are trained to it, who du nothing else but forage the country and steal negroes. They bring them to the bar racoons and receive in exchange beads, calico, brass bracelets, old muskets, or rum. The price allowed for a stout, able-bodied negro is about 8 dollars, and for women and children from 3 to 4 dollars, parable in goods. No children are bought lees than six years of age. Such is the infatuation for strong ornaments and ruin that parents sell their own ohildreu to the slave factors, and husbands their own wives. The negroes, during their stay at the barracoon are kept chained in gangs of from eight to twelve. An iron clasp is placed around the neck of each negro, and chains attached to these clasps ; the parties are linked together. They make the negroes work, but keep them chained together while at work. The work they have to do, however, is trifling. At this place the nearest water was three miles off, aid it was uo small labour to bring the water necessary for drink. Beane, rice, and maddock were the prin cipal food given the negroes. The latter in a root that grows there, and it is made into a sort of soup. No one but a negro could eat it.' Within a day or two after being brought to the barracoon the negroes are branded. Each barracoon has its own peculiar brand mark, and chooses its place for impressing the brand. The more usual place is on the- right., breast. Sarn.titura it is on one of the arms or the back, or one of the thighs. The instrument of branding is always the same, a heated iron, with the brand stamp cut in it like a post office stamp. During the time I was here I tried to get away to go to St. Paul de Loando, where I might see the American consul ; but the agent would not allow me to leave the barrarmen. Although he received me kindly at first, he afterwards changed his manner. He was a very dark, sly Spaniard, and it was impossible to get his confidence. One would not think of confiding anything to him. I saw he evidenty regarded me with suspicion, and I only sought to avert his _anger. I knew, if pro voked, be would as soon make away with me as he would with a negro. He went heavily armed, and while I was there shot one negro deal for disobedience of his orders. At the end of two months and a-half a slave ship came to Cape Padron, some eight miles above, and her captain and some men came to the barracoon to buy a cargo of negroes. This slaver was the Altivie, from New York. A cargo of 400 negrosie was bargained for ; the price paid for the men, those in the best condition, was $6O ; for the women and children was paid from $3O to $4O each. M. Farr arranged with Capt. Mishes, of the Altivie, to have me go with the captain. It was not at my solicitation, although I was anxious to get away. My hope was that I might get off in an Eng lish cruising vessel. As it was I did not venture to make any show of opposition, but went on hoard the vessel and entered upon duty as a seaman. The Altivie was a schooner of 150 tons, well built, and a fast sailer, The negroes were quickly stowed on board ; the major part were compactly huddled in the hold. Accommodations on deck were afforded for the women and children. There was here fresh air, but the condition of those in the hold was awful. They had to lie in spoon-fashion, and were not permitted to stir out. A tolerable supply of food was afforded, but water was sparingly dealt out. The vessel directed its course to Cuba ; it landed at Santa Nearia, a desert island ; during the passage 100 of the negroes died ; the vessel was 40 days reaching this island ; here they sold the negroes to parties from Cuba, who were there in a vessel awaiting a cargo. Some prime fellows fetched $BOO each. Immediately after the sale the Altivie was set on fire and burnt ; the vessel lay here eight days; meanwhile the captain went over to Trinidad to get a passage to the United Stares for him self and crew, but as the charge for the passports was 6,0005, he concluded to go without them. I heard there that a great deal of money had been made out of passport money, the whole matter being very handsomely syste matised for the purpose. The captain finally arranged with the captain of the brig William Heath to bring the crew on to New York, at which port we landed on the 24th of May last."

The select committee appointed to inquire into the expediency of establishing equitable tribunals for the amicable adjustment of differences between masters and operatives, and who were empowered to report their observations, together with tne minutes of evidence taken before them to the house, have considered the matters to them referred, and agreed to the following report . "Your committee have examined a great number of witnesses of different pos:tione in life, with a view of ob taining as much information as possible concerning the subject of inquiry referred to them fur investigation. A considerable majority of these witnesses concur in ex pressing themselves in favour of the esto,bli,hrnent of boards of arbitration between masters and workmen ; but on examining their evidence it will be found that they differ as the o institution of the proposed boards, and still more as to their jurisdiction. " Before considering their evidence, or making any suggestion thereon, your committee would wish to call the attention of the house to the existing law on the sub ject of arbitration. " By statuts sth Geo. IV., c. 96, disputes' relating to past contracts arising between masters and workmen may be settled and adjusted by arbitration. The matter to be settled either summarily by a justice of the peace, or , I . . _ _ . if that is not agreed to, by referees appointed . by such justice, and if the referees do not agree, then definitively by the justice of the peace. And by the 13th* section, in all such cases as aforesaid, as in all other cases of dis pute, if the parties mutually agree that the matter in dispete shall be arbitrated and determined on in a dif ferent mode to the one thereby prescribed, such agree ment shall be valid, and the award and determina tion therein final and conclusive between the parties, and powers are -given to entoroaanah award,— _ "This act appears to be hearty inoOrktave.' Hardly any one, whether master or workman, ever resorts to it, and its existence is unknown to many people. " The following constitute the principal causes 'as signed by the witnesses whom your committee have ex amined for j the failure of this act : " 1. That there exists great unwillingness to go before a magistrate, as bearing some appearance of a criminal proceeding. " 2. Thai the arbitrators being appointed as each cape arises, it is not known beforehavi who they will he, and there is reluctance to refer di dispute to the decision of an unknown set of men. " 2. Tk ►t the workmen object to magistrates in manu facturing districts, inasmuch as they ard gmerally ma nufacturers, or else in some way connected with manu facturers, • " To obviate these objections it has been proposed to establish in the various manufacturing districts courts of conciliation, similar t o th e Conseils de Prud'hommes which exist in France. It is not nece4sary to give here any detailed description of these institutions, as two ac counts of them have been furnished—one by the Board of Tra'de and another by Sir Henry Halford, a member of your committee, both of which accounts are appended to the evidence. A memb er o f y our comm itt ee , L or d Goderich has a,lso given, and the Chancellor of the French Ligation in London-has furnished valuable evidence re• specting the successful working of these institutions. Your committee would, however, point out that these conseils have no power to adjudicate with respect to fu ture contracts. "Several attempts have been made in this country to establish systems of arbitration without the intervention of late. They are said to have been successful so long as they lasted, but have been generally of short dutation. A system of ariaration now establi,hed in the potteries works well and is deserving of consideration. It has lasted three year, , , and a desire is there felt that it should receive legal sanction, which it is thought would secure its continuance. "It is proposed by some of the witnesses to extend the jurisdiction of any courts of conciliation that may in this country be estabisthed beyond that of the Conseils de Prud'hommes in France, or that recognised by the Arbitration Acts in England. These witnesses consider that either party to a dispute as to the terms of a future contract should be entitled to have it adjudiceed upon by these courts, and that although their decision should not be legally binding, yet, being published, its moral effect would in most cases insure a compliance with it. Some witnesses expressed a desire that these courts should have power to regulate the rates of wages. "Toe employers who have given evidence before your committee have differed in opinion as to the propriety of establishing tribunals of this kind, some of them, as Mr. W. E. Foster, thinking that they would in most cazes be productive of more evil than good, others, as Mr. M. D. Rollins, being strongly in favour of their establishment. " From the evidence before them your committee can not but arrive at the conclusion, that the att-mtit.n of the legislature might with advantage be directed to the sub - ject of this inquiry, and are of opinion that the forMatiob of courts of conciliation in the-country, illere particit laxly in the !Prete c drimnrcial "find manuficturing.and mining districts, would be beneficial. Your committee would suggest that such a measure might_be introduced as an amendment in the present Arbitration Act, by a reconstruction of that act in the 10th and 13th sections, by which means both masters anti operatives would be enabled, each from their own class or oiling, to appoint referees, an equal number by each party, having power to elect a chairman unconnected with either side, having a casting vote. Such a tribunal to be appointed for a certain period, and not for any particular controversy. "In addition to the above suggestions, your com mittee are of opinion that it would be desirable, in order to give greater permanence and force to such boards of arbitration as those above alluded to as having been formed in the Potteries and other trades and districts, that authority should be given to the Secretary of State, ,on application being made to him, to license boards of this description, and that immediately on such licence being granted to any such board it should be invested with power to decide all questions relating to existing contracts which might be brought before it, and to en force its decisions. "Your committee are, however, of opinion that it would be impossible to give these or any other tribunals any power whatever of forcibly regulating the rate of wages, although advantages might frequently arise, even in disputes on that subject, from the existence in the district of a board of arbitration chosen fr among th e masters and workmen in the trade in which such dispute might occur, as, in the opinion of your committee, both parties would frequently be willing in that case volun tarily to refer the question to the decision of such a board." DOUBLE MURDER NEAR DOPER. On Sunday the town of Dover was thrown into a state of the greatest excitement owing to the perpetration of one of the most horrible crimes that has been committed in this neighbourhood for many years past. During the morning intelligence was received that the bodies of two young women bad been found, stabbed in several places, and lying in a hollow near the high road between Dover and Folke.t one, about four miles from this place, both having evidently been brutally murdered a short time previous. On inquiry it was ascertained that the poor creatures were sisters, and that they both belonged to Dover, and from an investigation since made, it ap pears that their name is Back, and that they are the daughters of bard-working people living at Albion place, in Dover, the father being employed as a labourer upon the harbour, and the mother helping to gain a subsistence by taking in washing. The eldest of the girls was rather more than 18 years of age, and was named Caroline ; and the youngest, Maria, was about 16. It is supposed, beyond all reasonable probability of doubt that this appalling crime has been committed by a private in the 2d Regiment of British Swiss Legion, a Neapolitan by birth, and known in the regiment is which he belongs as Dedea Redaniez; for during the stay of the 2,1 Regiment in Dover, this individual contracted an intimacy with the elder of the unfortunate girls, and it appears that, at the time the legion was encamped at Aldershot, be carried on a correspondence with her. She, it appears, returned the affection he had expressed for her, and some pledges of their mutual regard bad passed between them, including a likeness of Redaniez which was in the possession of the unfortunate young woman- On Saturday evening last, it would seem, Re daniez came from Shorncliffe, where the Swiss Legion is hutted, upon a visit to the girl Caroline, whom he saw at her father's house in Albion-place. While there he asked her to return with him to Shorncliffe, for the pur pose of visiting a sister of his, who, he told her, was staying at the camp ; and after some hesitation it was proposed that they should set out for Shorncliffe, which is about 10 miles distant,from Dover, at three o'clock on the following morning. The poor girl, it seems, fell readily into the trap which was laid for her, and begged her mother to allow her to go. The mother refused for some time, it seems; but at last she gave her consent upon the understanding that the younger sister, Maria, should accompany them. No objection was raised; and Redaniez left, saying he should call for the sisters at tbe time at which it was arranged to start. During his con versation with the girl Caroline, however, it transpired that he was labouring under jealousy, and that he was impressed that another serjeaut in the legion had been corresponding with her, and that she bad received those advances favourably. The girl denied that anything of the sort had taken place ; but failed, it would seem, to remove the Neapolitan's apprehensions, for before leav ing the house be asked for his likeness. On getting possession of it be threw it in the fire ; but onlbeing re monstrated with upon this strange behaviour, h smilingly observed that be intended g i v i ng her a better one, and by this manner lulled any forebodings that might natu ra lly h ave ar i sen i n conseque At three o'clock on S un d ay morn i n g the poor girl s left home for the last time in company with Redaniez, who was seen proceeding with :them upon thheorutavdast'ou the n camp by a police-officer named Herd w . _a capon duty, and whose attention was rather particularly called to the soldier from the fact of his having, some time be fore, been in custody for assaulting another member of the force. This policeman is therefore certain 0 0 hi s identity, and as the description Herd gives of him cor responds exactly with the description afforded by the girls' parents, there is no doubt whatever that the sisters left Dover in this mans ' company. They were su b se . quently seen in the soldi ers company about five o'clock, A - ' , '"•// ---- / ,--- e<-- --- -7 -- -- • ' lll. oil, - de iiilblielenne abotit threa milea - 4i:leVS Ell, half from Dover.

He proceed there chiefly nakie a . s of curiosity, and was horror-struck on finding that the first female he came up to had been murdered. The bodies were about twelve paces apart. Heimmediately ' ran for assistance, and by 8 o'clock Superintelidebt Steer of the Folkestone,division of the Kent coastahulary and other parties were in attendance: Upon the bodies being examined by Mr. Bateman, a surgeon, it was found that each had received four stabs about the le: easts;and'tha t three on each body were fatal. The eldest bad also received a cut through the band, as if she bad resisted the mui&rerys 'attack, and her clothes .. were also disarranged. It is but right to state that, upon examination, it was discovered that some one bad ' recently bad sexaal intercourse with the elder girl ; and horrible as it appeare, it is, therefore, only fair to as sume that tire seordler committed the first of his diabolical crimes while his unfortunate victim was receiving his umbrae s. Tae other poor girl Was probably attracted to the ape t by the cries, and she then must have fallen a victim to the we ,p in still reeking with the blood of her sister. The bedies were removed to the nearest public. house and an inquest opened before Mr. T. T. Dela sause, courier for the district, yeiterday, and subse quently adjourned. The snpsrintendent constables of Folkestone, Wing. ham, arid Canterbury, and the police immediately com menced avigoroue search after the murderer, and he was traced to Har,ires, about five miles from Canterbury, where he posted two letters, one addressed to the mother of the deceased, and the other to the captain of his com-. piny. They were both written in German. In the former the wretched man alluded to the intention of the ' girl (Caroline) to go to Woolwich, at which he appeared much hurt, He also expressed sorrow 5 r what he had done. The murderer was afterwards seen in the parish of Chatham, about three miles from Canterbury, where be subsequently attempted to commit' suicide, Observ ing some labourers coming along the road towards him, near the viaduct of the South Eastern Railway, the murderer took out his knife, aud.plonged it into his body three times. The men ran up to him, and Mr. Ba nd, a surgeon, wag quickly in attendance. .

BURNIAG OF Till? NORTHERN INDIANA. (From the Buffalo Oourier, July 21.) The first mato, Mr. \V. H. Wetmore ; the first engi neer, Frank Farrer ; and Charles E. Marsh, clerk, an , rived in this city at neon, and we have gathered the following statements direct from them. M r . W e t more , who had charge of the vessel at the time, made the fol lowing statement : " We left Buffalo Wednesday evening, July 10, at seven o'clock. Thursday morning, *about ten minutes past eleven o'clock, when about halfway between Poipt-au-pelee Reef and Point-au-pelee Light house, the engineer sent a man to me and said be want ed me Lelow, and when I reached there the first, en gineer, Mr. Ferrer, was getting the hose ready, and attaching it to the fire-engine. Mr. Ferrer said, ' Mr. Wetmore, she's afire.' There is a round hole, usually covered with a plate of iron, which was off, between the engine-room and the smokeoipe, on the starboard side. I saw a light underneath the rnatsideck. I turned about and ran to cal . the men, passing some on the deck, whom I told to run to the engineer. I proceeded to the forecastle, where two or three of the men were sleeping, and told them to rouse. I immediately ran back to the engineer, and found he hat got to work with the fire.engine, and also saw the flames bursting through the hatches. I saw she was badly on fire,.and rap to call the second mate for the purpose of altering her course. Thence I ran to my room, which was along side of the wheelhouse, to get my axes, and bail hard work to get through the flames, which burned my bands considerably. Ae I came forward I met the seven I mate and one of the wheelenten, who Fetid they had the boats out on the cranes. I went immediately on to the pro menade deck with my axes, and when I not there I saw the forward boat was crowded with teen. I felt sure they would all be lost, unless I could get them out o' it. I took an axe in my band and ran forward, and told them they would all be lost unless they got out. "Mr. Ferrer, the engineer, and the second engineer -.sere trying to pull them nut of the boat, and succeeded in getting some out 67 the greatest possible exertion. At that moment the cranes gave way by the weight of those in the boat, and she went down end forwa:d, and spilled most of them into the water. The boat would hold 18 or 20, and was crowded to excess. When she went down I knew what would result, and did not stop to look at her, but turned round and met the men whom I had sent aft. They said they cent l not get aft, as the flames would not permit them. I then turned to the passengers and begged them to keep cool, and I would save them all, at the sane time knowing there were "abetit two cords of plank about half way aft on the.her board sine. =l re e where the plank was, andedge called to the crew and such of the passengers as were near, and urged them to get the planks out. I brought nut 'an armful and then went back to the oppposite side and brought back another lead. I constantly urged the passengers to obey my orders, and f would insure so.fety. I got them at work getting out plank and wood work, such as doore and panelings. " We then rushed into the cabin and hauled out the dining tables and threw them forward. We cut away everything that could afford any assistance. "A. woman shortly after came to me and said, am alone with four little children.' She hail at the time one in her arms. I took it and passed it up to a passen ger who wag on the deck. The woman then passed me the other three. Soon after another woman passed me a babe about six months old. Just previous to this time the Mississippi, which was about five or six miles astern when the firs broke out, had picked up most of them in the water. By this time her small boats, and those of the propeller Republic came alongside to pink those off from the Northern Indiana. The boats were full of life-preservers. The persons in the boats kept throwing the buoys overboard, and called to the pat- • sengers to jump over. The women seemed afraid to do this. A passenger about this time said to me, 'Take this child, and I will go and put them (the passengers who would not jump) overboard.' I took the child, and had another under my arm, and three more clinging to ma. The passenger (whose name I did not learn) worked heroically, and succeeded in getting three women and men into the water, and then I lowered the children away to them by heaving lines. My friend, the pas senger, was the last man, with the exception of myself, who left the vessel. r=- . " Previous to leaving her I walked aft from 15 to 20 feet, and stood there without experiencing any incon venience from the flames; I then lowered myself on the forecastle over the side to see if there was any one. I found no one, and lowered myself into one of the Mis sissippi's boats, which bad just come out. We pulled the boat rounq to the stern of the steamer and took off two men who were hanging to the rudder. We then puled round to the leeward and saw some in the wheel. I called out to them to swim out from the boat if they could. They not doing it, we pulled under the lee of the wheelhouse, and then underneath, and found two ladies and a gentleman ; got them on board, and told the men to back away, as there was danger of the wheel house dropping on to us. " We then pulled for the Mississippi, and on arriving there asked Capt. Langley for a boat to assist in saving the wreck. We took a lifeboat and rowed to the pro peller Republic, and asked him to take hold of the wreck, to which he promply acceded. Sbe was then towed into Pigeon bay, where she lies grounded 200 feet from shore. I should think I could have remained half an•hour after we abandoned her without any inconve nience. When the flames were dicoovered the moat in tense excitement and panic prevailed among the pas• sengerg, and it was impossible to maintain any kind of order, and no attention was paid to my repeated appeals to obey my orders, or they would all have been saved. It is my positive opinion that not a single person would have been lost had they observed presence of mind. I did not see a single person drown, looking constantly after the boat itself an d th ose on board. It is my im pression that not more than 20 persons were lost, and of those the majority were boat by the falling of the forward boat in the early part of the disaster. I deny that the Northern Indiana was racing at the time. We were nearly an hour behind time when we started, and we were running at ordinary speed. We were allowed to carry 40lh„ and at no time had more than 281 b. or 80Ib. " In conclusion, I desire to return thanks for and bear testimony to the gallantry, energy, and good be haviour of my officers and crew ; also to the noble and efficient efforts of the officers and crew of the Missies sippi and the propeller Republic. Captains Langley a nd Weaver did ail in their power to aid us in sav ing th e passeogers, anal to them the credit of sa vin g so m any lives is due. "Two or three Fail vessels, the DAMN of which I do not know, likewise rendered every assistance in their power. I know that some were picked up by these vessels, but what became of them I am unable to say, 6 , VV. H. WETMORE. " Buffalo, July 19." Jut previous to the breaking out of the fire and before any thought of such a di-aster had been started, one of the passengers. h ad who a innt andhis tsot!k from te-roomthae package m kag o e f mone y (lonic $3, 000) w e nt about bathe amount and put it in his pocket. When t h e 9,!arm of fire was given be found it impossible to reach his state-room, and the balance was lost. He could not explain to hint-elf why he took a portion of the money, or why he should have taken any of it, at the time he did. It was a suggestion of his mind which came involuntarily, and without apparent cause —one of those incotnp:eliensible things fur which there is no explanation. About one-half of those saved lost their all and are entirely destieute, some entirely so. One man and his wife had $2,000, their all, with which they were going west to purchase a farm.
