OCEAN HORRORS.

Within the last twelve months disasters to steam
have become of such frequent occurrence and in
instances attended with such deporaby fatal results that
the public mind has reached that stage of apprehension
which calls loudly for governmental interference The
shallow excuses often and successfully made about
ogs inability to take observations and sudden changes
in the currents of the ocean, no longer dupe the public
into sense of fatal security and unless the and
officers of our ocean steamers held the srctcst
countaby for the great of life and property
posed in them and unless Observation-Disclosures, certain,
and immediate-foows cupable ignorance criminal
glec the signal advantages which enjoy through
the space and me-anuihilang power of will in the
end be neglected to an that will render steamships
an Improbable investment Scarcely have citizens
recovered from the shock caused by the loss of the ted
Arctic when their feelings again laceed the quick

attended with scenes without parallel in the history of
ocean horrors and under circumstances calculated to
cite the widest and most painful suspicionswe aude,
of course the loss Of the steamship Yankee Blade the
particulars of which viii be found on the next page Many

the belief that the wrecking of this fine ship contrved
in San Francisco by the shoulder strikers ofwhom large
numbers were board He says that Immediately on the
ships striking they took possession of the boats and per-
mtied no one to enter until after they had stripped him of
his money They robbed the treasure cut open trunks,
&c. and prevented the passengers from going below to
look after their baggage Three or four men we're killed in
the hold of the ship by the strikers The theory Is that
many of the strikers shipped before the mast but the
larger portion appeared passengers The stories told by
the distressed passengers almost to, horrible for belief
The Yankee Blade struck the fatal rock when only
some mety-tlree hours om Of pot After she struck,
and when it became apparent that she must TO

whig papers full of reproaches of each other This is
especially the ip the free States If they call the
suits of the late elections whig Victories they de-

are four tickets the whig abolition ticket the pure abo
