with the soldiers struggling to reach the shore. If the -'' '
'Weather had been calm, the greater number cf them

Beams of wood, planks, and every article that
could be laid hold of, were launched to friable the men
to keep themselves afloat until further assistance could

called over. Of the Is', 2d, and 3d companies there
only remain 14, 16, and 19 men respectively. The
number deficient amounts to 219, to whick
must be added 33 dead, and 30 wounded in the
hospital, making the total loss to the battalion 282.

to 123. The names of the officers killed or drowned, as

time of the accident, for among the bodies found are
those of a servant and two children. Tee bodies of two
of the employds of the octroi have also been found."
