AWFUL OCCURRENCE.

The United States mail steamship Southerner,
Capt. BERRY, which arrived at New York on Friday
night, in sixty.seven hours from Charleston, IS
o.. reports the occurrence that morning, about two
o'clock, of a heartrending catastrophe, by which
twenty-six persons found watery grave.
When the Sottherner was about one hundred
and sixty miles from the port Of New York, the
night being extremely dark, the sea running high,
and the wind blowing almost gale, sail was dis
covered on the larboard bow, close at hand, and
coming right down upon her. 1t was instantly seen
that collision must take place. The Souherner's
engine was reversed, and backed with full steam,
and the helm thrown hard apor but it was too late
The two vessels came in contact with a tremendous
crash, and hung fast together for a few moments.
The Southerner's engine was again reversed, and
the vessels separated few feet, when suddenly
the barque went down, close to the steamers bow,
in less than five minutes from the time of the col
lision. Three life-boats were Immediately manned
by the captain and crew of the steamer, but of
thirty-three persons who were on board the sunken
vessel only seven were saved-two passengers and
five of the crew. The Southerner received but
little damage.
The lost vessel proved to be the barque Israel
