III, beautiful steamer Empire, Of Troy,
while on hcf passage up las, evening, was run
into by the schooner Noah Brown, At 9 past
10 o'clock, opposite this place, and sunk to
her promenade deck before assistance could be
rendered.
The steamer Rip Van Winhle, fortunately
on her upward trip, camo to her si,'ancc,
anl rescued he lives Of 100 Of her passengers.
The schooner, although hailed by the Pilot
Of The steamer, did not appear TO sec her, al
though the latter was stopped the bowSPri,
of Il C schooner entered the torva ard cabin OF
the Empire, and the former was so heavily
loaded that she did not stop until her bow
had also entered the Empires side.
The awful scenes which now followed can
not be desc.bed Most of the passengers
had retired for tho night, and were sleeping
in their bcrths.
When she struck and the water came rush
ing into the cabin, the men lcaped from their
beds and rushed to the stairs to save lheir
lives.
1t is very possible that many in tho forward
cabin were overwhelmed with the water Le
fore they could escape though to al appear
ance every one escaped
In the terrible confusion they Iramplei aud
bruised each other.
In the ladies cabin, when it was found that
the boat began to sink, the mos, awful con-
s,ernatio1 ensued.
The screams Of women were heait-rcndng
Wives called on their husbands, AMI children
cluns to their parents, for safety.
On shore, At SeNburg, the first intimaiion
of the dreadful catastrophe wss the aw ful
screams whlch arose from the passengers and
the mournfuI ,olng Of the s,esmer's bell.
Axes were brought, holes cut through into
the ladies' cabin, and many thus liberated.
Ore Of the ladies' was accidentally killed by
blow on the head from an axe at one of the
holes, such j. our information from a passen-
ger.
All this includng the assembling of The pas
sengers on the after promenade deck aud
around The pilot house occupied a period OF
less than eight minutes, during which the
boat wa, slowly aud constantly settling down
floating meanwhile with the tide.
II is not known how many, If any gentle
men were drowned in the lower cabins. 4
bout $50 in al were there and none Of ,hos,
who escaped had time TO save more than tlIcy
had npcn them. Those who were in bed ans
asleep were awakened by the noise ant
screams and barely escaped viii ,o lvss.

Rio DE. JANEIRo, 18th March, 1919.
Since our last we have to advise very important
change in the aspect of affairs. Business has been
rather languid, partly owing TO political excite
growing out of the disturbed state of Pernam-
buco which it was feared might extend to some of
the other Provinces. The latest adviccs from Per-
nambuco are rather favorable towards the rcstora-
ton Of order, aud think things there will shortly
settle down TRANQUILITY.
For some time past we have had numerous arri-
walls from the United States, bound TO California.
They merely put in here for refreshments. The
following is a correct list of California vessels arrv
ed here since Goth ult:-Feb. 30 bark Elvira, from
Boston; 25th, bark Sutton, from N. York, and sch.
