THE GREAT WEsrKRN-Mach blame belongs to
somebody for the publication Of the following para
graph or for its tardy contradiction =
"Ariyed-Ship Cosme. Tuesday, F. n exchanged num-
steering Wild and was Ave hours in sight There was
q knot breeze"
This paragraph ran the rsund Of the Wall street
papers On Friday morning. We did not publish it,
because we did not believe the facts were thus
stated, without qualification; in our paper of Friday
evening, we published the account in juxta position
with Mr.. Henry Lynch's statement, to show that
the account by the Cosmo must be a garbled
one; we did this to alay the anxiety of the
numerous persons in this city and elsewhere whose
friends were board the Great Western. On Satnr-
day morning, certainly did leok for a contradic-
ten or an explanation from the consignces of the
Cosmo. But no ssch paragraph appeared-all day
on Frday-all Friday night and the greater part of
Saturday the friends of the passengers in the West
crn were agitated and alarmed beyond description.
Here was unqualified report that IN 20 hours the
Western had only made 70 mes-that she was steer
ing wild-that she remained in sight for five hours.
Every one knew that she could run 10 miles an hour
that 3 hours run, or 80 miles distance, would take
her out of sight, added TO which, the Cosme (t was
presumed) in that FIVE hours, herself, made 20 30
miles, The frends Of the parties therefore, had rea-
son to be alarmed; they knew the chief engineer was
dead-thoy fancied thousand things, and as always
happens they feared the worst. 1t was the duty
therefore, of the consgnees of both ships to have
certained the facts and ts have published them on
Friday afternoon, to allay the anguish the pre-
mature publication had oceasioned. But no! Friday
evening came but brought with il no contradiction
Saturday morning arrived, no explanation. And it
was not ill two o'clock on Saturday that the follow
ing paragraph was published =

Now we simply, and in all kindness, ask the con-
signces, both Of the Great Western and the Cssmo,
was il kind-was il considerate--was il in accord
ance with common humanity not to set the matter
right sooner7 The public certainly cannot patronize
those who pay no respect to human sympahies and
seRsibities!
