RIVAL OF THE FRENCH STEAMER NEW I DIRK
AT NEWPORT THE steamer New York, as we
published in our evening edition of yesterday,
put into Newport out OF coal, on Friday, at half
past five, PM. This fact we learn from one of
the passengers, who arrived yesterday morning in
the steamer Bay State
The New York left Havre on the 25th ult.,
early in the morning, and, from her departure to
Sunday last, met with unfavorable winds. n
SUNDAY last. the steamer met with terrible
osle and her captain was obliged to make his
wav 70 the southwark, and reached the Gulf
Stream. where he was detained three days. On
Wednesday last the eng neer discovered that the
coal bankers were very low, and the matter be-
ing exposed to the captain, 1t was deemed
necessary to put into the nearest port, which was
Newport.
II appears, that instead of $40 tons, which were
said to be on board, the quantity was much less,
and the quality very inferior. In this case, as
before, the fault is upon those In Havre, who
ought to make indispensable examination
upon such an important matter: Capt.. ferrand
having been taken sick, Immediately before the
departure Of the New York, the company put In
his place very intelligent offcer, M Paclni, a
Lieutenant in the royal navy, who was n the
French war against Mexico, when the. French
fleet captured Vera Cruz The place OF second
captain is taken by Mr. Chevreuil, who was be-
tore hrst lieutenant, and the other ofhcers are as
follows.-
Bilsr First Lieutenant
M. Michel Second do.
M. Carpenter Third do
M Buvray. Surgeon and Chief Steward
We understand that the passengers were highly
pleased with the able conduct Of the captain
and OF the engineer, M. Demanet, both of whom
have done their best TO perform quick trip; but
wind and coal, and chances, were against them
M. Thomas, the royal mail agent, arrived in
afp rdp dali al
which was large one, to the post office
There were forty-two passengers of the first
class, and thirty-two in the Storage. We could
not procure their names; but we hope the steam
