NarraganSen from New Orleans, with heavy
cargo, bound for this place, struck snag about
| II O'clock on Saturday morning. when at the
head Of Dog Tooth Bend, fifteen miles above
Cairo and after running about three lengths,
sunk to the hurricane loof. She had large
number OF passengers, including about one hun.
bred and thirty Germans on the deck, all Of
whom through the exertions Of Captain PIERCE,
his officers and crew, were saved, but the greater
part OF those on the deck lost every thing they
possessed, except the clothes they had on at the
time Of the accident, and thus destitute and in
a. strange land, have to depend upon the benevo
| lence OF strangers for the necessarles OF life
| The books, papers and money in the clerk s
office, and also the cabin furniture was saved
and tn ere is some hope of saving the machinery
with the aid of the diving bell, but the boat and
cargo will be wholly lost. The steamer John
Golong, which was at Cairo, went to her assist.
once on Sunday morning and left the wreck on
Monday, bringing up part OF her passengers
and such articles as were saved. The officers
and number OF the passengers remained near
the wreck TO save what property they could.
Capt. PIERCE had gone 10 Commerce to procure
the aid Of diving bell. When the John Goong
left her she had, it was supposed, broke in two,
and had careened on one side so that one hal
OF the hurricane roof was under the water.

three seasons, was a substantial boat, and we
learn was partially insured in Cincinnati. Part
Of her cargo was insured in this city, but the
amount Of the loss we are unable at present to
ascertain.
