TO THE WORCESTER DAILY SPY
The Hnngarian,s Passengers.


HALIFAX, Feb 25-The clearance of the
Hungarian has been found. She had three
hundred and sixty passengers.
But in Portland and Montreal this state
ment is discredited. There must be some mis-.
take, for neither the Hungarian nor any other
steamer belonging to this line has ever been
known to carry halt as many. We begin to
get some OF the names of those on board
There is little doubt that Jared F. and William
ID. Crocker, of Norwich, Conn, were passen-
gers from Liverpool by the ill fated steamer
Hungarian. Letters received by the families
OF the two gentlemen announce positively their
intention of taking this steamer, then to sail
from Liverpool in a few days. They had been
on visit to Europe to dispose of rights to use
patent cork-cutting machine invented by
William ID. Croker, and had been so success
full that they were returning at an earlier day
than anticipated. Mr. Crocker has a consid-
cradle mandatory using these machines, at
Norwich, and his brother dared I is a law
yer of that place. The Norwich Bulletin OF
Saturday says GA letter received Friday af-
ternoon by Messrs. w. r. Croker & Co., of
this city, from one of their agents in England,
places the fact almost beyond doubt that the
two gentlemen did take passage III the steamer
Hungarian. The letter was in reply to one
a sent to the agent by Mr.. j. f. Croker on the
gre of their embarkation on the Hungarian
We understand it came by the Europa, which
left on the 1lth. The Vigo, which left on the
same day with the Hungarian arrived at New
York on Friday. The wife of Mr.. w. D.
Croker, who has been for some time in ill
health, is in a state of mind bordering on dis
traction" Some time must necessarily elapse
before the authentic list of the passengers can
be procured. In the meantime, many who
have been expecting friends from Europe are
in state OF anxious suspense. The Boston
Daily Advertiser understands that the friends
of Capt Harlow of Duxbury, formerly master
of ship Kingfsher, are fearful that he may
have taken passage by the Hungarian, as he
was expected to start for home about the time
she sailed
New YORK, Feb. 26.-The agents of the
Grand'Trunk line say they have been notified
that the following passengers were booked for
the Hungarian, the three first in Liverpool and
the remainder in Cork, viz. Hugh McCaffrey,
Richard Madden, VIM. Kirby, John Daley.
Martin Donners, Ellen Sheehan, VIM. Veogle,
George McDermott, Michael Lucy John De-
lany, S. Richardson, Patrick McGivern.
MitchelPs Steamship journal, London, Feb.
ruaby 10th, says the Hungarian had seventy
passengers.
