SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO A _FRENCH MAIL

STEAMER.

-O. -

The Transatlantic mail steamer Pereire has just had a
very narrow escape, and bad it not been fur the coolness
and intrepidity of her captain, she would have shared the
fate of the London. She left Havre on the 15th for New
York with 83 passengers, mails, and 500 tons of mer-
chandise. The announcement of her arrival was looked for
r. 3 she is one of the fastest boats in the service, and great
was the alarm and anxiety created by the news that she
was putting hack to Havre. When she was near the banks
of Newleundland she encountered a terrific gale, and on
he 20th an immense wave fell like an avalanche on the deck,
enrrying away the fore-cabin on deck, ewer ling off the
bultraths and the two boatee and breekbig dewn the hridge.
the mass of water then rushed clown the engine-rote.,,
putting out twenty-four of the thirty-six furnaces, and
thus paralysing three cut of the four boilers. As might
be supposed, some lives were lost and many persons
severely injured. One young lady who was Sitting reading
in the cabin was killed instantly by the weight of
falling water, two other passengers died from the
injuries received, and two of the ship's company
were washed overboard. Twenty-one ethers were much
hurt. The captain at once erilered the vessel to lay to,
and kept the engines going with one boiler. He organised
:he passengers and crew into gangs for pumping ent the
water, and, scudding before the wind, brought his
dilapidated vessel safely lack to Havre, as the
voyage could not Le safely continued with the
foredeck open. The uninjured passengers, mails, and
cargo were transferred to the St. Laurent, and the passen-
gers before quitting the Pereira signed a testimonial to
Captain Duchesne.
