How many of the above are lost is impossible
at present to say but it is thought that the loss
of life has been principally confined TO the poor
emigrants, who, although life is Of course as pre-
COuS to them as to the wealthcst of our citizens
will leave few amongst us to lament their un-
timely death-and in addition to the above, there
were on board, A. f Daggett, of e hcago-Mr.
Woodbridge, father of Mr. Wells Woodbridge, of
this city-Jno. w. Murphy, Express agent, all
of whom are saved.
From Mr. Holman, NJ. C. R. r. office, we
received information that the following were the
number of tickets issued from his Office -
Storage passengers, emigrant-2l7.
Deck passengers-5l.
Second class passengers-l0
Cabin Passengers-4S. Total 326.
Aside from these Mr.. Holman thinks there may
have been 1875 ersons on board including crew
making about $50, and reducing the probable loss
to about 200; This however, we fear is little
under the mark.
The emigrants were Norwegians, who came
through by lake Ontario steamers from Quebec,
and about 10 or 80 of them were left on the dock,
refusing to suffer them to 60 on board. They
now mourn the loss of their friends
There is reason to hope that many may yet be
saved on life-preservers, with which the boat was
we'll fnshed.-Buf. Com. ADJ.
HoN. B. T. BUTLER has written a letter in
reply TO that of Senator chase which we pub
lished two weeks ago. The New York Eren-
ing Post publishes Mr.. Buffers letter. Mr.. B.
is "amaZed at the short sightedness and folly of
the platform builders at Baltimore ;" but he "has
no apprehension for the cause of human free
dom. lie wishes the Compromise democratic
nominees TO be elected, but he does not approve
of the platform. We have no right nor DISPOSE
ton to mpeach his motives, but experience has
shown that similar action Of the New York De-
mocracy in 1914, although it secured the tri-
umph of Mr.. Polk, proved disastrous to the
canse of human freedom. Texas was annex
ed as a slave State, and new projects for the
increase and extension of slavery were made by
the Administration. We have seen no good rea-
son for supposiag that the result will be differ
ent in case Mr.. Pierce is successful. The
Slave Power is as eager for new Slave States
and new Slave Territories now, as ever il was
its projects are many, various, and comprehen-
sive and the true way to prevent their success,
as it seems TO US, Is to oppose, by oil legitimate
means, the endorsement by the people of the
Baltimore platforms.-Ndt. Era.
