:Tau New York papers, just receivekccontain accounts
of-.a distressing shipwreck on Long Beach, New Jersey:,
The Powhatan (Captain-Meyers), of Baatimore, with 200.
passengers on board, --bound from Havre to New York,
wet-east ashore about midway between Earnegat and Ftl
Harbour inlets, on the night of Saturday, April 15. A
:correspondent of the: New York Heraill thus desetilies
this dreadful calamity::
When first dixomered by Captain-Jennings, of Lekig
Beath, which was on,..Sunday morning, .she- lay with her.
Imal to the south, theAteks were crowded with passen-',
gers, and the sea MRS .making a dear breach over Ler:
The,wind blowing a perfect gale from the north-north-
fast, the waves ran naountains high, twisting the ship
about in the sand as. if she were: merely a cork boat.
Seeing the condition ofit'le vessel, Captain Jennings, who
is-stationed as a wreck.-master.. on .theteach, sent all the-
men that were at his command, though a snow-storm 54'29
'raging violently, to the sGovernment `house, in order to
bring down the life-ear, .and other...wreeking apparatus„
and stood on shore himself watching.the effects of the
Zillows upon the ill-fate&vessi. Hoarafter hour slipped .
-by, .bat the-men did not ,return with - the life-car. The ,
wessel became uneasier, and many, unfortunate people were
swept off by the heavy surf. 'About -Sve o'clock, p.m.,
-oneiiounense wave washed fully,loo,persons overboard,
iwhoasere carried away -down the beach, by the undertow.
Some of them came ashore, and were picked up lifeless by
Mr. "Jennings, who searched in vain:amongst the number
for a survivor; but all had-breathed their last before they
reached the beach, being awfully mangled by the force of
the -waves pushing the against the. hall of the vessel,
and throwing them with riolentforee.upon the beach
" At sthis time Captain Meyers, who was on the deck of
the PoWbatan all this while, called out in a loud voice to
Mr. Jenxiings, entreating him:to tryand.sare some of those
who 'might be washed ashore. Captain Jennings replied
that all those who came ashore were deadrand that it was
no use looking for them, as thiy were allzkilled before they
got out of water.
. _

- "About seven o'clock the ~ship's masts ,went by the
board, andalmost immediately afterwards the hull burst
in two, and every soul on board Fas la,unchalinto eternity.
The sea presented a black mass 'of human heads and float-
ing pieces of the wreck, but in a tew moments all had sunk
to rise alive no more. The beach was strewn with the
dead bodie&of women and children, :pieces of the wreck,
the baggageof the passengers, and empty C30:8. Nothing
remained to ,usark the spot where the gill-fated ship had
gone ashore, ,except surging waves beating,upanafragment
of the hulk wbieh lay upon the beana.
"The trying:of the drowning meew and.the slutigiking of
the women antivehildren was hushed—all :lay in ale deep
numbered with the dead, while the wnd mailedileud and
mournfully, adding still more horror to the. awful catas-
trophe. All had:sank—captain, officers, crew, ,and pas-
sengers, of 250:persons—not a soul was left to.telLthe tale.
No aid came fromtthe Government House that night, and
Captain Jenning,s,w.as compelled to remaiiA there.ky,kim-
self, a lonely watcher of the dead.
" On Monday morning four men arrived from the4a-
tion-house, but their 121 p came too late. The storm., it
seems, was so severettlrat while on their way back:
wreck on Sunday, with the life-car and mortar, two ,of
them fell down exhawted, and the whole party :,were
obliged to return neatly frozen to death. This party cif
men, under the command of Captain Jennings, set imme-
diately about finding and gathering together those ;bodies
fihat had been washed ashore. In the short spate ,of an
hour nearly 20 women and ,children were found almost:
naked, scattered along the beach, some of them dreadfully
braised and cut.

." One man was found About 50 yards from the beach,
upon the sandhills, with a ,eluld in his arms; and from
his .condition it is supposed that he alone of all on board
reached the shore alive, and crawling out of reach of the
waves, in order to save his own life and that of the infant
in his arms, fell down exhausted oil the sand, and was
frozen .to death during the night. The. child was firmly
locked in his arms, quite dead, .ananrpeared as if it had
also died ashore from exposure.
The whole of this day was spent in searching for the
bodies of the unfortunate people. Butoue man was found
among the number, all the rest being women and children.
They appeared to have been in excellent ;health, with rosy
cheeks and smiling faces, looking as if they were asleep
rather than dead. They were all laid side side, until a
;boat could be gat') carry them to the shore.
On Thursday
,12 bodies were removed from the beach
to the village of Manahawkin. These consisted of one
man and 21 children, all apparently, by their features,
seeming to be Germane, the women who had .any clothes
on being dressed in coaxse materials,, with heavy shoes,
some of them wooden oncs. All the dead were conveyed
to an outhouse of Squire Peckworth's, where they re-
mained until coffins could be made for them. This
melancholy task of making reception for the dead occu-
pied the attention of the mesa residing in the village,
while the women were busily employed in washing the
bodies and laying them out, preparatory to their being i
placed in the coffins. Too much praise cannot be awarded
to the, inhabitants of Manahawkin for their zeal and in-
dustry in giving a decent burial to the dead.
• " Our reporter visited the dead house, where lay in
tiers, one above the other, women and children, presenting
a shocking and painful spectacle. The whole evening
was spent in making coffins and shrouds; and it was not
until midnight that these kind-hearted people desisted
from their labours, which were trying in the extreme." •
Two schooners were wrecked at the same time as the
Powhathn; 200 bodies were washed ashore.

THUNDER STORM AND Loss OF LIFE.—On Tuesday
last, between one and two o'clock in the afternoon, Leeds
was visited by a storm of lightning, thunder, and rain.
The visitation was of brief duration, but of a severe
character, and proved fatal to two men, and seriously in-
jured several others.
EXTENSIVE ROBBERY. The extensive premises of
Messrs. Charles Brook and Son, of- Meitham Mills, near
Huddersfield, have been broken into, and a large iron
fixture safe was blown open with gunpowder, and Bank
of England notes, Bradford and Co., 45 notes, with gold,
silver, and sundry bills of exchange, amounting to £3OOO,
were stolen. Everything connected with the affair shows
that the robbers were no novices, awl that they were
pretty well aepainte4 with the premises.
