LOSS OF A SOUND STEAMER.
THE EMPIRE STATE ON THE ROCKS
Passengers all Safe.

The weknown steamer Empire State, Of tho
Fall River line, commanded by Capt. Brayton, left
her dock at pier No. 3 North River, at 5 o'clock
yesterday afternoon, bound for Fall River. Soon
after she started fog came up, which had become
so thick before she got out Of the river, that the
pilots were unable to keep the exact channel. The
consequence was that she ran on the rocks at He'll
Gate, Just below Wards Island, and was so much
damaged that she soon filed and sunk.
All the passengers are reported safe. There was
e large number on board, including one hundred
and fifty ladies, most of whom were on the way to
Boston.
The passengers had no time to spare, and saved
nothing beyond the clothes they had on.
Our latest report says tie steamer had sunk so
that her upper saloon was under water. 0fcourse
the baggage and freight will be mostly ruined.
The disaster happened about quarter before 6
o'clock, when, in consequence Of the fog, it was 90
dark that the boat could not be seen from the shore
These are all the particulars that had reached US
at midnight, at which time our reporters had not
returned from the scene.
There was rumor that thirty or forty persons
had lost their lives but We could not trace it to any
responsible source.
Fortunately for the passengers, none OF them
had retired to rest, and very few were in the cab
ms, it being not quite supper time

LATEST FROM THE BOAT.

The boat ran on the rocks at the west end of Black.

for about fifty feet. by getting the passengers to fall
back to TO the stern of the boat they enabled to
get her off. The doakey-engine was started to pump
out the water They then turned about and CROPPED
their way into shoal water, and finally succeeded in
landing at the foot of Twentyrt street where some
schoonen were lying. With the assistance OF planks,

The account given sbove was sent in substance,
from the Teegraphic Agent of the Associated
Press. Our reporters, however, give very diff

1t seems that the steamer ran upon one OF the
rocks which extend in an irregular reef for nearly
half mile below the southern point of Blackwell's
Island. A large hole was made in Der bow; but
the engine was Immediately reversed, the boat
backed off and IN few minutes she reached the
pier at or near Twenty first street where, with the
aid of panks her passengers were safely transferred
to schooner and thence to the wharf. Nobody
was hurt.
There were about $50 passengers on board. The
shock when she struck was very severe, and, OF
course in view of the late terrible disasters at sea-
the most painful alarm andexcitementspread among
the passengers. The alarm was greatly increased
By the hazy condition of the atmosphere, which
shut out the shores and seemed to wrap the boat in
apan.

PENNSYLVANIA LEGISLATURE.

HARRISBURG, MOhdHy, Uct' Il, Io1''
The Senate is awaiting the action of the House on
the Relief bill
The House spent the whole morning in considering
propositions for extending the time of resumption
without effecting anything.
In the afternoon Mr.. Ball offered entire new Sec
ton in the place of the first section of the present
bill. 1t suspends the penalties incurred until January,
1852 and permits dividends of six per cent during the
suspension. The motion was negatived.
Various motions were considered and rejected,
changing the period of resumption of specie payments
The question recurring the final passage of the
bill, it was negatived by Yeas, "a; Nays, Sc.
In the Senate, this evening, a moti,n to take up
bill providing for suspension till the first Tuesday in
July, and an adjournment took place.
All now depends upon the House, which, it is gen.
