THE PHILADELPHIA STEAIIEItS

Tan CITY OP Gx,Asaow.—At last, after months of
painful suspense, indications of the probable fate of the
City of Glasgow, and of the hundreds of unfortunate
beings who embarked in her, have come to light. Captain

111'Leary, of the barque Mary Morris, from Glasgow,
arrived at New York, reports that on the 18th of August,
in lat. 53 26, lon. 16 07, weather very thick at the time
and a heavy sea on, he fell in with the hull of a large iron
vessel, apparently Clyde built, painted black with a bright
red bottom. There were three or four compartments in
the hull, and all the wood work was entirely burnt out of
her. Some of the men who were sent aloft to look into
her, perceived she had machinery in her. On the next
day, Capt. M'Leary fell in with and took on board a full
length female figure-head, seven feet in height, with hey
hands extended, a wreath upon her head, and green stripes
on her dress. It was the impression of all on board the
barque that the wreck was that of an iron propeller, sup-
posed the City of Glasgow. From the circumstance that
no other iron vessel has been reported lost, except the
steamer Helen Sloman, some three years back, appearances
favour the belief that the wreck was that of the City of
Glasgow, and that the fate of the poor souls on board,
though different from that hitherto supposed, was the
most awful that can occur among the many disasters inci-
dental to the ocean.
THB CITY OP PIIILIDELPIIIA.— A correspondent of
the Guardian, writing from St. John's, N. F., gives the
following account of the wreck of the City of Philadelphia
steamer :—" On the night of Thursday, the 7th inst., at a
quarter past eleven o'clock, the merchant steam-ship, City
of Philadelphia, a magnificent new vessel of upwards of
2,000 tons burthen, with six hundred and twenty passen-
gers, bound from Liverpool to Philadelphia, on her first
voyage, went on shore on Cape Race. The night was wet
and misty, and consequently the land was not seen two
minutes before the fatal vessel struck. There was just
time to put the helm a starboard, and to cry Stop her,'
but she had unhappily too much way, and the land too
near to be saved from the collision. The first blow was
on the starboard side and but slight, but in a moment
after she came end on upon the rocks with a concussion
that threw many of the passengers out of their berths, and
awoke, as if to judgment, every soul. The scene that
ensued may be better imagined than described. In a few
minutes nearly every passenger was on the deck, the
majority half-naked, and nearly all crying, screaming,
wringing their hands, and running to and fro, expecting
every moment would be their last. The vessel bounded
back from the rock, and the captain immediately turned
her head towards St. John's, assuring the passengers
there was no danger, as the vessel was of iron, and built
'
in compartments. Finding her, however, sinking (the
wonder is she did not go down instantly), after coasting
three or four miles, the water having almost reached the
fires of the engine, the captain ran her towards shore, and
most providentially she grounded directly opposite a cove.
A boat was immediately sent to land, and guided in the
dark by the same merciful Providence, came to the beach
safely. A few hundred yards, or less, on either side, and
on every other part of the shore were only rocks, on
which it would have been almost impossible for a single
individual to climb up. The crew having landed, and set
up a light, other boats with the passengers were without
delay directed to the same point, and wonderful to relate
in this dark night, and in the midst of this terror and con-
fusion, by half-past twelve o'clock, within little more than
an hour from the time of the accident, every soul was
lauded not only alive but without the slightest injury or
loss. This most unusual and happy result was mainly.
due, under Providence, to the captain's decision and
energy, well seconded by his officers, and a small part,
though but a small part; of the passengers. The spot was
uninhabited, and consequently not the least assistance
given from the shore, The next day (Friday) two persons
were dispatched towards St. John's, about fifty-five miles
off, in a small vessel ; but the wind being contrary, they
were obliged to walk the last twenty miles, and did not
arrive till the afternoon of Saturday. On that day a
small steamer passing along the shore was hailed, and
took off 250 of the passengers. They arrived in St. John's
by six o'clock on Sunday morning, and one chief object of
my communication is, to make you and your readers ac-
quainted with the consolation and refreshment which even
in that far off and desolate country the Church had pro-
vided for them in this hour of deep distress. At eight
o'clock, a.m., the Holy Communion was celebrated, as usual
in the cathedral. The Bishop and Archdeacon both
present. At eleven o'clock, a.m., divine service at the
cathedral, and at a second church in the town. At the
cathedral several of the rescued passengers publicly
returned thanks. The bishop said the prayers as far as
the Litany, and preached. The only parts of the service
chanted were the Canticles (Helinore's tones without the

and almost miraculous deliverence, in the prayers and
