ID the steamer was rendered entirely unmana-

and the steamer was rendered entirely unmana-
gable
Great praise is due to Captain johnson and his
crew for their noble and humane conduct in the
rescue of the i'll fated Central America They all
accord in rendering their heartfelt thanks for
their efforts to render them every assistance in
their power before and after their rescue
One incident connected with this heart rend-
ing catastrophe is said to be. that the captain of
:he Norwegian bark, some time previous to find
ing the survivors ofthe steamer, was on deck. and
bird flew in his face three times. when lie made
an alteration of three points in his course, bv
which means he was made the happy instrument
OF saving the lives of the 40 survivors.
The statements given by the Herald agree in
regard to the particulars of the disaster but they
are not more full than the telegraphie despatch
es which we have already published
Each one gives personal account of the disas-
ter and the method by which he was saved.
1t has been said that Colonel Fremont was on
board the Centl America ;but he did not leave n
York till the 5th of August, and could not have
reached San Francisco till the 2Sth of that month
The passengers bv the Central America left that
city the 20th ut.
5 A Wells and VIM Birch, the minstrels were
both on board, and both were saved.
1t will probably vet be some days before We
shall have complete accounts of this most melaD
cholv catastrophe.

The deep traces of enmity still remaining in
the hearts of the American people toward Great
Britain, after more than forty years of unbroken
peace, and with all the advantages resulting from
a similarity of race and language, uudisputed so
cial equality, and vast commercial relations show
how difficult thing it is under the most favorable
circumstances for England to get forgiveness from
a people that has once been driven TO revolt from
her rule.
