WRECK OF THE PULASKI.

The intense interest taken by the
public in the recital Of the details Of
this most heart-rending disaster, has in
duccd us to seek, from all the sources
within our reach, all particulars that
we can rely upon as authentic. The
annexed narrative is derived from in
formation which we procured, in per
son, from J. III. Cooper, Esq. of Glynn
county, Georgia, and Major james p.
Heath, Of this city, two Of the suryiy-
ors. The arrival of the latter among
us, at the moment when the whole city
had given him up as lost, excited tho
most pleasurable sensation, and was
the occasion Of universal Joy.
The Pulaski sailed from Savannah on
"Wednesday, the 18th Of June, having
on board about 90 passengers. She ar
rived at Charleston the same afternoon.
and sailed the next morning with G5 ad-
ditional passengers. In the afternoon
the wind was fresh from the east. and
produced heavy sea, which retarded
her progress, and required full pres
sure OF steam. At half past ten tho
wind continued fresh with a clear star
light, and there was every promise Of
Zine night. AT II O'Clock, tho starboard
boiler exploded with tremendous vio-
lence, blowing of the promenade deck
above, and shattcring the starboord side
about midshirs-at the same time the
bulk head between the boilers and for
ward cabin was stove in, the stairway
to 1t blocked up, and the bar room swept
away. The head Of the boiler was
blown out, and the top rent fore and
aft.
In consequence Of the larboard boii-
err and works being comparatively unin-
Iurcd, the boat heclcd to that side, and
The starboard side was kept out Of

gers.
On Thursday, the 14th inst. the steamer
Pulaski, Capt. Dubois, left Charleston foI
Baltimore with about $50 passengers, OF
whom about 80 were ladies'.
At about II o'clock on the same night,
while off the North Carolina coast, say thirty
miles from land, weather moderate and nigh,
dark, the starboard boiler exploded, and the
vessel was lost, with all the passengers and
crew except those whose names are enume-
rated among the saved, in the list to be found
below.
We have gathered the following facts
from the first mate, Mr.. Hibberd, who had
charge Of the boat at the time. Mr.. Hibberd
states that at about 10 o'clock at night he
was called to the command Of the boat and
that he was pacing the promenade deck in
front OF the stcerage-house that he found
himself, shortly after, upon the main deck
lying between the mast and side Of the boat
that upon the return Of consc ciousness, he had
| a confused idea Of having heard an explo-
sion, something like that Of gunpowder, i'm
mcdiately before he discovered himself in
his then situation. lie was induced, there
fore, to rise and walk aft, when he discover
ed that the boat midships was blown entirely
to pieces that the head of the starboard
boiler was blown out and the top torn open
thnt the tin'bers and plank on the starboarJ
side, were forced asunder, and that the boat
look in water whenever sho rolled in that di
rcction.
lie became Immediately aware Of the hor-
rors Of their situation, and the danger of
ting the passengers know that the boat was
sinking. before lowering the small boa,s.-
lie proce edcd, therefore, to do this. Upon
dropping the boat he was asked his object,
and he replied that il was 10 pass round the
steamer 10 ascertain her condition. Before
doing this, however, he took in couple OF
men. lie ordered the other boats ID be low.

from the water, until the number made len.
In the other boat afloat there were eleven.
While they were making fruitless attenpt
to bale the small boat, the Pulaski went down
with dreadful crasIi, in about 45 minutes
after the explosion.

he resisted their remonstrances, replying
that he would not abandon the spot until

morning they started, in the midst Of the
wailings of the hopeless beings who were
floating round in every direction upon pieces
of the wreck, TO seek land, which was about
thirty miles distant. After pulling about
thirteen hours, the persons in both bosts be-
came tired, and insisted that MIR. Hibberd
should land. This he opposed thinking It
safest to proceed along the const and to err
ter some one Of its numerous inlets; but he
was forced to yield to the general desire,
and to attempt q landing upon the beach,
little east Of Stump Inlet
lie advised Mr.. Cooper, Of Ga. who had
command Of the other boat, and q compile Of
ladies' with two children under his charge, TO
wait until his boat had first landed, as be sp-
pretended much danger in the attempt, and,
shonld thew succeed, they might assist him
and the ladies' and the children. There were
eleven persons in the mates boat, (iaving
taken two black women from MIR. CoOper's.)
OF these, two passengers, one Of the crew,
and the two negro women, were drowned,
and six gained the shore. Alter waiting for
signal, which he received from the mate,
Mr.. Cooper and his companions landed IN
about three hours after the first boat, in SALE
IIty. They then proceeded short distance
across Stump Sound, to Mr.. Redd's Of Ons-
low county, where they remained from FIJI
day evening until Sunday morning, and then
started for Wilmington. The mate and two
passengers reached here this morning (l6th
