were thus engaged the ship gave a tremendous
lurch 10 leeward, and the three masts were at once
carried away; II is stated that there were eighteen
OF the crew aloft at the time, and four pitched
INTO The sea, one OF Them not to again, while
the others were thrown with great violence on the
deck. OF the latter, two, named William Gibbs
and George Bethel, were killed on the. spot, and
others sustained serious injury. Among those
injured, was a sailor, twenty -four years Of age
named William Blair, who had his right arm
broken, SO that it only hung by small portisn OF
the skin. After this dreadfal catastrophe the re-
mainder of the crew got up what head-sail they
could and put the ship round and, although it was
some time before they met with assistance, they
ultimately fell in with the steamer Queen, by
which they were towed to the Mersey on Thurs
day afternoon and subsequently into Nelson Dock
On the arrival of the Hemisphere, it was at first
thought that the accident was OF much more
serious nature. The passengers numbered be-
tween four hundred and five hundred, and had ex-
perienced the greatest alarm, but they were taken
in charge by the copsignees and emigrant broker,
who will forward them TO their destination by
some other vessel. The wounded men were con-
veyed to the Northern Hospital and on the follow
ing day an inquest was held on the bodies OF tho
two men who were killed.
The facts, above stated, were given in ev-
dence, and after searching investigation, ver-
dict of " accidental death" was returned
We should state that the Hemisphere is quite a
new ship. having only recently come from Boston
to Liverpool on her first trip, and in consequence
of her rigging having stretched on her passage
here, everything was set right previous to her sail
and the rolling Of the sea caused the rigging to-
sacken again, and to that circumstance the fatality
may, doubtless, in great measure be attributed.
