The Late Trip OF the 81. louis.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERAI

As one OF the passengers who have recently performed
the voyage from Havre New York, board the steam
ship st. Louis cannot orbear to express thus publicly
nv sense Of the eminent qualities of seamnnshp and
command which distinguished Capt. EIdrdgc, during
passage Of unusual embarrassment and danger. In this
appreciation or the qualifications Of the commander of
the St. Louis as well its public testiHcation have
every believe that all my fellow passengers
most heartily Tie late voyage was performed,
as above minated, under circumstances Of extreme
hardship and dcnly, not to say Of pcrilous exposure
During thirteen out OF the eighteen days Of It's contnu
nnce, the path OF the vessel swept by constant
succession Of terrific gales which not only tested the
utmost powers Of the ship but called for continued
crcise OF eminent nautical Skill vigilance aud courage,
on the part OF hcr commander. In the display OF all
these qualities Capt Eldrdge cvnced all occasions
ability and promptude equal to the emergency and my
fellow passcngcss, Mt least will have no difficulty in
cognzng this as distinguished praise for the
that almost the whole voyage series Of difficult aud
trying emergencies.

ty and fidelity Of Capt Edridgc when At his post Of

to declare in addition that OF these guar

oadsde to the sea- and every exerton being made to
more OF the passengers.
SEVEN O'CLOCK r. N.
The ship remains in the same position as before re-

Not less probably than seventy five have already
been washed overheard, and from present Indications

All tho balls at the station were shot over the shin
without being able TO send line board from the
horc, except in one when life boat Immediately
ent out to the wreck and Captain Henry and eight
others got into IT. but IL instantly capsized and
turned completely twice. Captain Henry and four
thers clung to the boat and succeeded in reaching
he shore. Unfortunately, at the time the life boat
capszed, the cable from the shore to the
hip gave way, and there was then no remedy but to
end to another station and procure balls for the
purpose Of throwing another line the wreck and
not an instant was lost in sending to the nearest life
boat station for this purpose.
The ship Is perfect wreck and there il not the least
hope Of saving anything.
Should the heavy sea continue during the night IL 4,
scarcely possible that than very few OF the pas

Information in regard the condition Of things board
