, The men reported as follows: 1--WE belong
to St Marys, Newfoundland and our trade il
fl fishermen on shore boats. On March I'd We
saw a ship ice-bound about two and hall
miles from the coast We went out to her
with party Of tbirty-four men, al fron st.
Mays Tie wind was from the westward. a
moderate breeze. Before We reached her we
met the captain of said ship in charge of an
other party from St. Marys, who took the
captain ashore, az he was sick.
! As near as We could understand, the crew
had left the ship the day before. We reached
the ship at three O'Clock in the afternoon
As night came on we made for the land after
searching the ship, but did not reach the
coast, as the ice Lad opened toward the land.
We spent the night on the ice, and had seven
men frozen to death during the night. The
next day We went On board again. We had
to leave nine more out Of our humber behind
| US, as these men we're too weak to walk and
the ice wocid not permit us, on account Of
its weak state, to carry them. Three Of these
men were picked up by the schooner George
$. Fogg on the sixth of March, as the only
survivors out Of the nine. We found nothing
to eat or drink on board except molasses. The
ship drfted out with the ice, but we were in
sight of the coast about six or seven days,
but not able to reach it. We stopped till the
eleventh Of March in the ship. when we saw
a schooner about four miles to the eastward
Of us. As the ice was in some parts too
weak to bear man, we took small boat
from the ship and made for the schooner,
which we reached in the afternoon where we
were received with great kindness"
ANOTHER NARRATIVE.
BALTIMORE, March 2y.-The Sun of this
morning publishes an interesting story from
one Of the men rescued from the ice off the
coast Of Newfoundland and brought to this
port yesterday by the steamer Nuremberg.
The party are all Irishmen, or Of Irish de-
scent, and comprised nearly the entire able
bodied men OF the population of the little
town Of ST. Mays, Newfoundland. When
returning to shore on the evening Of the day
on which they boarded the ice-bound brig, |
they found that the ice had parted about
mile from shore, leaving SPACE of half q
mile of clear water. With night came on
storm of rain and sleet and finally snow, in |
several of the party, and |
when morning came seven corpses were count |
ed. A heavy mass of ice twenty feet square. |
foated near, upon which nine of the party got, /
hoping that it would drift towards the shore,
and that they could thus save themselves, but
when it had foated about three hundred
yards it grounded, and the unfortunates re-
NAMED upon it three days, during which
time six of them died. All in the way of food
they had in that time was small white fish
which was frozen in the ice. The eighteen
men remaining after the nine fioated of made
their way back to the abandoned brig. All
expected to die in her !; some of them had
ost their senses before reaching her. The
orig moved in the ice for a week in sight OF
and, aud the fish, rmen were on her ten days.
rhe narrator says he has q family Of six chill
lren, and some of those who died leave fam
lies equally as large. The ten men will be
