WRECK OF THE SHIP New YoRK-GREAr Sur.
rERISG OF THE Crew AND PAssENGERs-The
ship New York, the loss Of which at Barnegat,
we learned by telegraph day or two since,
had three hundred passengers on board. She
struck on Saturday at P. NJ, the Captain mis-
taking the lights. As soon as she struck, they
found that there was such heavy swell that it
was necessary to cut away her mas s, which was
instantly done, hoping thus to save her. After
her masts were cut away she lay easily. On Sat
urday evening the wind came round northwest
and blew quite hard, from that time till Sunday
morning, sic lay rolling heavily, the sea dash
ing madly over her. She was partially filled with
water and part of her stern beat off,. All night
she lay in that terrible condition, her passengers
soaking with water, chilled with cold and un-
ncrved with fear.
Her passengers were landed upon the bleak
coast by means of life car, one by one. As
there are but two houses for miles their suffer-
ings must be intense. Those of the crew who
SO cruelty beat the Captain, have been caught
and imprisoned to await trial. Capt McKennan
is expected to recover.
