From the 81. Louis .Nec Era Of the 20h.
Dreadful Steamboat Collision 50 One
hundred and thirty lives lost !--steam-
er Talisman sunk.

The steamer Lucy Bertram, up this NOR
ming from below, brings the painful intelli-
gence of the loss of the steamer Talisman,
and the lives of about one hundred and Mtr-
ty of her passengers!
The Talisman was from Pittsburgh, and
bound to this city, with a heavy cargo of
merchandise and near three hundred pas
sengers.
About five O'Clock on the morning of the
10Th inst, when five miles below Cape Gil
rartleau. she came in collision with the
steamer Tempest, bound down, by which
accident she sunk in a few moments to her
hurricane roof.
At the time of the accident the Ta!isman
was crossing the main channel of the river
to the Missouri shore. The engines of the
Tempest were stopped, but not IN time to
avoid the collision.
There were some one hundred and fifty
deck passengers on board the Talisman, all
of whom, with a few exceptions, are sup
posed to have been drowned.
From all we can learn, but five or six cabin
passengers were lost. None of her officers
are missing. The Tempest received no in
Jury, and passengers who come up ON the
Lucy Bertram say, that no blame can be at
tached to her officers. She remained by the
wreck of the Inflated boat and took off her
surviving passengers and brought them to
Cane Girardeau, from whence some forty
arrived ON the Lucy Bertram.
None of the officers of the Talisman have
arrived. We learn, however, that the books
and papers of the boat have been saved, but
her cargo will prove nearly, if not quite, a
total loss.
When the Lucy Bertram passed up she
had settled down to her hurricane roof
We learn that the passengers, with a few
exceptions, lost all their effects-one gentle
man in particular lost nine negroes (who
were on deck) and fourteen horses.
The CONSERVATION and alarm in the cabin
of the sunken steamer, as mentioned TO US,
beggars all description. Mothers with chill
dren in their arms, ran frantic through the
cabin of the boat, and in some instances
threw themselves overheard, and were res
cued with difficulty. Many male passengers
threw chairs and tables overheard, to which
they clung until rescued.

CAIRO, AND THE GREAT CENTRAL RAIL
ROAD FOR ILLINOIS. We notice by the
Western papers that the site of " Cairo
City," with all the improvements thereon,
which cost an English company millions of
money, has recently passed into the posses
sion of new Association, together with the
charter of the Central Railroad, commencing
at that city and running through the centre
of the State to the Illinois and Michigan
Canal, and thence to the Lakes and Galena,
upon the construction of which the State ex-
pended more than a million of dollars
These great and important works, 1t seems,
are to be completed and carried out togeth-
err. If so, we venture TO predict that they
will prove the most profitable investment of
capital in this country. Cairo, like New
Orleans, is protected by levees and embanS-
ments raised above the highest known foods.
Ii is undeniably at the head waters o. nayi-
CATION. for largest class steamers, at MI sea-
sons of the year; for, ADORE this point, IN
winter, the Ohio and Mississippi are often
obstructed by ice, and in summer impcded
bv low water Hence, the Railroad COM
mencing at the confluence of these two
rivers, and extended to Chicago and Galena,
will open the most certain, direct, and speedy
inland route between New Orleans, the Far
West, and the Atlantic cities, and will Sc
cure nearly the whole travel between the
Southwestern and the Northern States
We shall be disappointed, if we do not see,
before five years, Boston and New Orleans
brought within four or five days. distance
The commercial prosperity of our own city,
and indeed the interest Of the whole South
west, are greatly identified with the success
of these improvements. OF this we shall
fully express our opinions hereafter.-N. y.
