Rurning Of the steamer Montreal.

Burning Of the steamer M0ntreal.
The following despatch, which gives more
detailed and circumstantial account Of the burn
ing Of the Montreal was not sent to 10 as ii
should have been Saturday last. Wecut it from
the Chicago papers Of Monday:
Quebec, june ~.
The steamer Montreal, one Of the regular
steamers running between Quebec and Montreal,
left this pert at o'clock yesterday r. NJ. hav
ing on board 400 or 500 passengers, Of whom
majority were Scotch, and other emigrants re-
Gently arrived from Europe. Nothing unusual
occurred after leaving the wharf, until the Mon
treal rounded point of Cape Rogue, about IL
or Is miles above this city, when the wood work
near the furnace was discovered to be on fire.
Almost the very moment the smoke was dis.
covered the flames broke forth, causing the ut.
most CONSERVATION among the crowded passen-
gers. The fire was first discovered about five
o'clock, when the steamer was nearly al reast
of Cape Rogue. Every effort was made to ar.
rest the flames. The boat was stopped SO as to
lessen the draught, but, finding it impossible to
save her, Captain Rudolph ordered her to be
run toward the shore.
The officers aud crew then exerted themselves
to get out the life boat. The flames spread with
the most astonishing rapidity and in few Sec
Onds after the steamer began to move forward
the widest confusion and despair prevailed
throughout the ship, and numbers Of the pas.
sengcrs threw themselves overheard and we're,
in most eases, drowned. Fortunately the steam.
er Napoleon, also bound for Montreal, was but
| few miles in advance Of the burning boat and
as soon as the fire was discovered, put back
with all speed and succeeded in rescuiDg l27
passengers.
Capt. Rudolph and the purser were among
those who threw themselves into the river
They being excellent swimmers, succeeded IN
reaching the steamer Alliance and were saved.
Il squite possible that others may have saved
themselves by swimming, but as the steamer be
came unmanageable when considerable dis.
ance from land. There is no doubt that most Of
those who threw themselves from tho hssss.G
boat, found watery grave.
| Sixteen Of those saved died within short
time after reaching the deck Of the Napoleon
and from present information, it is believed, the
total loss Of life by this terrible disaster vii
mot fall short Of 800 to 400.
The steamer Alliance arrived here this Z. N.
with As dead bodies and another boat is known
to have recovered so bodies. We have not
been able to learn the names Of any OF thos'
lost except-&r. Phillips, Of the extensive lnus-
bering firm OF Norcross l. Phillips, Of Thre.
Rivers. The Montreal had on board 25S emil
grants, recently arrived here from Glasgow, 20
| gether With several German families and ratsa
men and several American passengers.
