stined for st. Louis, grounded near the mouth
of the Illinois river, and fears are entertained
that she will be cut in two by the ice. Further
particulars of the snagging Of the Nick Wall.
mentioned in our kilograms yesterday, were
received this morning. 1t seems that she
struck the snag above Grand Lake, one hum
dred miles above Yicksburg. during a fierce
storm, on Sunday night. The cabin, the roof
of which was literally covered with empty
pork barrels, wagons and farming implements,
soon after fell in on the larboard side, thereby
preventing the escape Of passengers, and soon
after ioated off down the river distance Of
four miles. OF fifteen cabin passengers nine
were lost. and Of one hundred and thirty five
deck passengers thirty are known to be lost,
making the total loss of life thirty nine souls
The deck passengers were chiefly emigrants
from the North, destined for Texas and Geor-
gia. Captain Poe was severely injured while
rescuing his wife from under the fallen cabin
roof, but with her, as well as the remaining
cabin passengers, was picked up by the Semi
mole. A rumor prevails this morning that a
bridal party, who embarked here were among
the lost; also, that a family of three persons,
Nick Wall was owned by the Carter Line
Packet Company. of St. Louis, was valued at
So, 600. and insured for 5000. Her cargo
consisted of three thousand barrels of -four
and a large assorted freight list for points
on Red river. The insurance on the
cargo will perhaps cover half its value.
The small sidewheel steamer Holston. which
arrived here few days since with a cargo of
salt, and which left for the south with cargo
of oil cake. sunk at Luna landing, Arkansas,
on the evening of December 18th. She was
backing out from the landing at the time, and
struck something which tore through her hull.
She wei,t down in thirty or forty feet of water.
She turned over as she went down, and her
boilers rolled out. The crew and passengers
escaped safely to the shore. The Holston was
built in 1855, and was worth at the time she
met with the accident about $1,000. She was
insured for s4OOO-in what companies we are
not informed. The Hoiston was owned by
Mr.. Arnold, of Mnscatine. larr NO |
