Loss OF THE EMPIRE.-The New York papers
are filled with the particulars of the disastrous
wreck of The steamboat Empire. The latest ac
counts have direct TO the evening of the
Doth. Al that time the wreck remained in the
same position, near Newburg, with her stern sunk
in twenty feet of water. No efforts had then been
made TO raise her, but the work would commence
The next day. No additional bodies, with the ex-
ception of That of boy, had since been recovered
from the wreck, though the slightest doubt was
entertained that considerable number will be
found when she is raised. The whole number of
bodies found was ten. The Coroners jury held
on the bodies found after careful investigation
of all the facts, and the examination of a number
of witnesses, censure the pilot of The Empire, al
tribuling The collision 10 his carelessnegs The

The whole number of passengers estimated to have
been board was $50; 229 are accounted for
There may have been more passengers, and some
supposed 10 be lost may have been saved but the
loss il is estimated will not vary much from twenty
five or thirty.

brick stores on the east, were also burned. The
occupants were Raymond, hat store, and
Strickland bookseller and statiOner. The store
occupied by Mr.. Strickland was nearly east of that

zers were busy in attempting to save the property
the walls of the large building fell in upon them,
burying several under the ruins. The number of
the sufferers was unknown When the Oregon
left four parsons had been ascertained to be hurt

frightfuy burned. The names of the injured given
