At 3 q lock on thu prnid Of IT,
1st inst. e steamer htchss bousd
up, came H. contact With tie Peafl
bound down, and the Pearl sunk II
|in'ahout twenty minutes .
W. gather the particulars from
Maj. FrancissSrsl. who was on the
Natthez st.the time Of tie accident,
The Pearl was from the Atchafalya
Capt. Dorsey commanding, with full
load Of sugar and lnolasses. The
pilot Of the Natcliez seeing the Pearl
clost ii, to the. right bank, opposite
Conrads point, and near Brusley land
ing, gave the signal, which, was not
answered. The Na,chez then gave
the right bank signal which was not
answered, and when within hundred
yards of the Pearl, the pilot Of that
boat set her head % the shore; the
Natchoz commenced backing, but was
unable to stop her Roadway, the con-
sequence was she struck the Pearl
about notwithstanding off the Cabin
from the hull, which sank in about
twenty minutes. Two deck hands
were instansly crushed to death, and
three others lost, together with Capt.
Stanly, the commanders son-in-law Z
These are all that are lost, so far as
asccrtained. The Natchez stayed at
the wreck aboat three hours, and took
off about fifty persons. The Magno-
liza also stopped and took many Of the
passengers on to New Orleans. 8
