ANOTHER DREADFUL MARINE DlSASTEM
LOSS OF THE SHIP ST. DENNIS AND
THIRTY SOULS.
wemensioned yesterday the loss Of tho packet
ship ST. Dennis, of New York. for Havre, with d
persons. The New York papers of Thursday give
detailed account Of the dreadful disaster. The
hrst and second mate and nine seamen were saved
Those who perished were tho captain, third mate
three cabin passengers and the remainder of the
crew. The New York Express says
happcars that when out Of this port two days
on her passage to Havre, she foundered in the
great storm that prevailed the first Of the month
Great exertions were made by the captain to save
his ship and Passengers, but alas! he with most Of
the crew, found watery grave. The mate states
to our messenger that the suferings of all were in
tense. A bitter cold wind with an entire depriva
ton of all comforts, made tho situation Of all on
board most lamentable
The mate, as we saw him at the assignees' Of
fee boyd Hincken,) was the picture of despair.
His haggard countenance and melancholy appear
ance indicate strongly what he has suffered
Among the passengers were young couple who
.ss ms1,eo oniy two Gays oeiore the PACKET len
arms. went down into the great depths of the sea
together. +
