AWFUL CATASTROPHE.

The New York mail Of yesterday brought
US the following melancholy intelligence.
From the Buffalo Commercial Of Saturday
erening.
| The steamboat North America is Just in,
by the passengers Of which we learn the par
ticulars of a most hcart-rending calamity
THE DEsTRUcrION OF THE NEW AND ELEGANT
STEAMBOAT WASHINGTON, by fire, of
Silver Creek, about 3 o'clock this morning,
with the estimated loss Of FIFTY LIVES
The Washington passed tho North Ameri-
ca while the latter lay al Erie, in the carly
part of the night, and was not again seen by
those on board the North America until when
within about three miles OF this city, brigh,
glare Of light was discovered by the helms
man, in the direction of Silver Creek, and the
North America was Instantly put about for
the scene OF apprchcnded disaster.
On nearing the spot, about o'clock, the
found drifting over tho waters, three or four
being OH board. The lako was literally
and blackened fragments of the wreck,
The intense anxiety Of the witnesses Of
this fearful scene, for the fate Of the passen.
partially relieved by the discovery Of several
small boats near the shoro, in which the sur
vivors of the disaster had been rescued from
destruction.
The alarm had been given at Silver Creek
as soon as the flames were perceived from
the shore, and all the boats that could be
found were sent to the rescue Of the suffer
ers. There were only three skitfs. beside
the yawl Of tho Washington, which could b.
thus used.
The North America took on board about
40 of those saved, many of whom, including
all the ladies, remained on shore.
After picking up all the floating baggage
which could he seen, the hull--whicll wa.
still able to float the engine-was towcd in
to Silver Creek, where it sank in 6 or feet
of water. The North America remained at
Silver Creek, employed in this melancholy
business, 6 or z hours, and every thing was
done by Captain Edmonds and his crew for
the relief Of the sufferers. Their prompt
and efficient services arc entitled to all
praise.
The i'll fated Washington was built OF
Ashtabula last winter, and had made but on'
trip previous to her destruction. The fire
caught near her boilers, and had made such
lpTORTCSS Wucu uloCONClSu IA w uCiy ut W
tempts to cxtinguish it. The helm was in
stanlly put about, and the boat headed for
shore, but in few moments the wheel ropes
were burnt of, and she was rendered On un
manageable wreck. Had iron rods been
substituted, as melancholy experience has
taught on the Mississippi this appalling loss
Of life might have been avcrted
II We hear that the surviving passengers oi
tho Washington unite in stating that nc
blame was attributable to Capt. Brown, the
/ commander.
/ We hope and expect that the reported loss
of life may prove exaggerated. We have
heard, since commencing this article, the
loss variousIy estimated from twenty to sixty
Many of the survivors were badly burned
before they left the boat.

Judge Story has decided in the case Of the
United STATES vs.. Uiidtr, that property be.
longing 10 the United States is liable tor
general average in the same manner as that
Of individuals. The suit was brought in the
Circuit Court by the store keeper Of the U.
s. at Boston, TO recover the amount OF certain
slop clothing, valued at 1880, on board
schooner Jasper, stranded on her passage
from Boston to Now York, on Block Island
which was returned to Boston with the Other
cargo, and offered TO the shipper on condition
Of signing the general average bond, but re-
fused by him on the ground that the U. 3
had the right 10 take the goods without pay
ing or securing their contribution to the
average. This right was denied by the
owners Of the vessel, and the goods withheld
for which the suit was instituted,

Of foreign affairs insists, and to which the
French government will not accede.

The firing on board the Hercules on
Friday, was so distinctly heard at the
distance of eight or ten miles from town,
as to be mistaken by many for thunder,
though there was scarce cloud to
be secn) and several as is not un-
frequently the case in thunder storms,
bctook themselves we understand to
their chambers before they ascertaincd
what sort Of thunder it really was.

ready at the proper moment to board
and carry the war to the cnemy's deck. >
AT about O'Clock the drums beat to
quarters, and the loud "note Of prepa-
ration" echoed through the ship-thc
word was given, and the batteries i'm
mcdiately opened The firing was kept
up for some time with all the brskncss
Of trained and gallant tars, in the midst
of which the Commodore cheercd them
with the inspiriting words" Vive la
Roi," which was responded to by the
beat Of drums, cheers from the crew,
and the Marscilles Hymn" from the
Band. A scene more exciting cannot
well be imagined. The manner of con-
ducting the combat, the perfect disci-
pline, and the readiness and alacrity
with which both officers and men per-
formed their respective parts and du-
ties, called forth the admiration of all
present. Without instituting any in
vidious comparisons, officers of our Ma
Wy, such as Captains Turner, Shubrick,
Taylor, and others who have had ex-
pericncc in naval warfare, all agree in
saying that nothing could 1surpass it.
We have not room to GO into a more
minute detail of this interesting exhbi-
|tion, and must therefore leave the rea-
der to fill up in his own mind whatever
of consequence we have omitted. The
|reycrberation Of the cannon was COM
|parativcly but little felt on board the
ship-much less than we anticipated.
AT 4 o'clock the company left the
Hercules with the Commodore and
visited the Favoritc near by, on board
of which were many ladies and gentle
men who had been invited to view the
" engagement. Here his guests took
leave of the Commodore, who subse-
quently embarked OH board the steam
boat for New York to join the Prince
dc Joinville.
We are happy to say that no accident
whatever, either in the firing Of the
cannon or musketry, occurred to mar
the pleasures Of the day.

[From the Oswego Palladiuh, June la.

1t is to be regretted that Ior some
years past the Anniversary of our De-
claration Of Independence has lost sOmo
of its observance as a National festival.
Without wishing to see this memorable
day celebrated with boistcrous excess
and unbecoming RIGHTEOUSNESS, we
should be pleased to see it made the
season of rejoicing and innocent mirth.
If there be an occasion worthy Of the
lOttiest commemoration it is that which
Identifies itself with the birth of free
people. who together with their pos
tcrity arc to enjoy for ages the blcs-
sings of liberty. The mode of showing
honor to such an event should be Dig
nified and exalted, that it may cores
pond in all respects with the circum-
stances with which it is connected.
The Fourth Of July should be the
jubilee of good feeling and patriotism.
and should be honored by the wise and
the good, the young and the old, not in
scenes of debauchery but in the cxcr-
else of intellectual onioyments in which
all may participate. The nation that
can forget the era of its political crea-
ton will soon be unmindful of the bles-
sings which the occurrence has confer
red, and we shall have cause deeply to
regret the time, come when it may, that
shall sec the day, which Witnessed the
Declaration of Independence, pass un-
needed and unhonorcd.- Bali. Am.
