heaped about the floor of the cabin in dis
order, some with their clothes torn from
their backs in their fury, some with their
features trodden into mummy by the
ron-shod "brogues'' of their FELLOWSHIP
ferers; here father locked in the arms
OF his daughter; there sister clinging to
the corpse of her brother, their couslten-
ances black and distorted with the con-
yulsions produced BY suffocation. The
following is a description Of the scene
which met the eye Of the mate when a
steerage passenger, who had at last forced
his way out, communicated to him the ter
rible intelligence:
The mate instantly became alarmed, and
obtaining a lantern, went down to render
assistance. Such, however, was the foul
state Of the air in the cabin, that the light
Immediately extingu;shed. A second was
obtained, and it, too was extinguish-
ed. At length, on the tarpaulin being
completely removed, and free access Of
air admitted, the real nature of the catas-
trophe exhibited itself. There Law in
heaps, the living, the dying and the dead,
one frightful mass of mingled agony and
death, a spectacle enough TO appal the
stoutest heart. Men, women and children
were huddled together, blackened with
suffocation, distorted by commissions, bruis-
ed and bleeding from the desperate strug-
gle for existence which preceded the mo-
ment when exhausted nature resigned the
strife. After some time the living were
separated from the dead, and it was then
found that the latter amounted to nearly
one half of the entire number.
"The scene, on entering the steerage Of
the steamer, was, perhaps, as awful a
spectacle as could be witnessed. Seven
ty-two dead bodies of men, women and
children, lay piled unfortunately over
each other, four, deep, all presenting the
CHASTITY appearance Of persons who had
died in the agonies Of sufocation; very
many Of them covered with the blood
which had gushed from the mouth and
nose, or had flowed from the wounds in
t'icted by the trampling of nail studded
drogues and by the frantic violence of
those who struggled for escape-for it was
but too evident that, in that struggle, the
poor creatures had torn the clothes from
off each others backs, and even the flesh
frem each others limbs.''
We have nothing more to add to this
brief but tragic tale. save that the coro-
ner's jury found Alexander tombstone,
captain, Richard Hughes. first mate, and
Ninian Crawford, second mate, of the
Londonderry, guilty Of manslaugher, and
have expressed, in the strongest terms,
their adherence of the inhuman conduct
of the other scamen on board, throughout
this unhappy transaction.

AN ITEM FOR WINE DRINKERs.-H.
w. Sargent, correspondent of Doun-
ing's Horficuilurist, writing frcm the wine
district near Bordeaux, thus describes the
process of wine pressing: "The press
house," says he, "likc our cider mills in
New England, is usually in some out
house, like a barn, and always presents
a scene Of great merriment; for, upon a
square wooden trough tand four or five
men, with bare and juice-stained legs,
dancing and treading out the grapes, TO the
music Of violin; the latter instrument
forming an essential part Of every WELL
ordered vineyard. As these grapes are
all purple, it is very odd sight to see
these dancers performing a fandango, or a
pas de quntre, stained as they are from
head to to foot. in the blood ofthe grape"
