DEALING WITH THE DEAD.

HALIFAX, April 4, 1871.
When Captain Williams returned from the scene
of the calamity, this morning, he brought on the
steamer the dead bodies of ]. II. Price and Henry
s. Hewitt, Of New York; Albert J. SUMNER Of San
Francisco; Mr.. and Miss Merritt, OF New York !;
and Second O1cer Metcalf
One hundred and sixty-four bodies now lie upon
the beach at Mars Island. They are now much
swollen, bruised and discolored.
The body which was supposed to be that OF Mrs.
Fisher seems to be that ofa steerage passenger
who strikiDgy resembled her, but the hands were
coarse and large and evidently those OF hard
working woman.
SAD SCENES.
Very sad we're many Of the scenes. Most OF the
women and children looked ruddy and placid in
the face as though they had been awakened TO die
without being conscious OF the cause or their
death. The eyes OF most OF them were open and
no diniculty would be experienced in recognizing
some Of them. stranger could at glance tell
the nationality OF the dead he gazed on. In one
case woman was seen lying on the seaweed-cov
cred rock, with her face upturned to the blue sky
and grasping In mothers death grasp chubby
faced infant, whose lips were still fastened to the
fountain whence he had been drawing his supply OF
nourishment. Some sudden wave had probably
swept the two into eternity while the mother, care
ful for her Child, was In the act OF quieting the
infant
TWENTY-FIVE MORE BODIES RECOVERED.
The weather has been rough to-day And net
much exertion has been made to recover bodies.
Those saved were being placed Ia rude coffns,
ready TO be buried. At six O'Clock this evening
twenty-five more bodies had been recovered, one
Of then evidently lady Of the saloon, from the
ornaments upon her hands. She was found three
miles at sea. When the Captain left the ship there
were but fifteen passengers remaining in the rig
ging.
THE CREW DENY THE RoBBERlEs ALLEGED.
The crew Indignantly deny the stories In regard
to pillagng the dead bodies and say II anything
OF that kind occurred IL must have been by some
Liverpool stowaways, Of whom there were no less
than fifteen, and seven or them saved themselves.
II must be admitted that most OF the plaging thus
far has been frsm the dead bodies.
THE VICTIMS TO BE BURIED BIT THE GOVERNMENT.
In the House OF Assembly this afternoon Mr..
Blanchard moved that the Clerk OF Works be sent
to the scene OF the wreck OF the Atlantic to make
arrangements for having all the bodies OF the vic
Tins OF the disaster brought TO town, and piece OF
ground be selected TO bury all those not other wise

Clerk would be sent down to attend to the matter.
Those who know state that something OF this kind is
almost absolutely necessary, there Is no suitable
place OF interment in the vicinity OF where the
wreck took place. meeting Of this body was held
this afternoon, when q communication was handed
in from the Provincial government. asking the CO
operation OF the City Council 90 - 70 have the dead
bodies that were washed ashore nom the wreck
