VARIOUS EXPERIENCES.

ACCOUNTS OF THE DISASTER by PASSENGERS WHO
ESCAPED FROM THE BURNING STEAMER AND
WE'RE BROUGHT TO NEw-YORK.
Many OF the passengers of the Inflated steamer
NarraRansett, who arrived in New-YOrk by the
steaner New.YOrk Yesterday were visited by re-
porters of The TRIBUNE, to whom they gave ac-
counts Of the disaster of tho previous night they
had witnessed 1t, and Of their experiences during
the eventful moments or hours before their safety
was sassured.
G. Rodenberg, Of Providence, II. j., told his story
as follows: " l was on board Of the Narragansett
and occupied the lower berth of staterOom 2S
which was in the forward part Of the steamer, on
the starboard side. w. Whitaker, of Providence
a friend, occupied the upper berth. l was not
awakened until the collision, which took away the
whole side of the stateroOm. Whitaker was
thrown from his berth into the water, and q minute
afterward went also. Neither of lis had time to
get life preseryer. We were both good swimmers,
and wero able to keep up assisted by some boards
we found. until we were picked up by life-boat
from the City of New-York."
HORROR ADDED TO HORROR
Herbert Bright, Of Boston, age eighteen, SAID {:
As soon as the collision occurred i rushed up TO
the cabin In few minutes the fire broke out.
Two men were standing at the time near the door
of their staterOom. AS the flames kept increasing,
and il seemed as if we would all be burned to
death. one Of the men said to the other, | don't
intend to be burned TO DEATH aud taking pistol
from his pocket shot himself in the forehead. The
other had pistol also, but he waited minute, as
if debating what to do. The terrible scene
seemed to make him desperate, and in a mo-
meut he followed the example OF his cOmrade. l
didn't stop to look at the men, was occupied In
taking care of myself. then went on tho hurri-
cane deck where, in company with six OF seven
men. tried TO lower of the life-boats. We did
this in such hurry that the boat filled wi Ii water,
and when We jumped in 1t capsi2cd.
"1bree of the men, l think, were drowned. The
rest of the party. among whom were two or three
women. succeeded in climbing back on the
steamer by means of the rOpos on which the boat
WAS suspended. One of the women had Il child in
her arms, and both were saved. About fifteen feet
from the boat when she capsized was little girl of
twelve years Of age, holding in her arms n baby.
She WAS II ,atlng. supported by life preseryer. We
then went to tho hurricane deck aud lowered an
other boat We drilted in this for abOnttweuty
minutes, padding with our hands, until wo met
another lifo-boat. from which we got two oars.
After rowing around for half an hour, and picking
up "a many as We could we rOwed to the City OF
New-Yorkt"

from the Narragansett and number from the

before the fire reached it, and that the papers VIII

look after the papers first but 1t appeared to me
that could be moro useful other ways. and let

the men could not be assigned to special duties but
each man is supposed to belong to particular Doat
am not supposed to move any boat; my duty was
to allay the excitement and this was anything but
an easy task.

about 800. About 200 have been landed here, ana

A DESTITUTE GROUP.

ARRlvvL OF THE RESCUED BY THE CITY OF NEW
YoRK-A BRAVE SAILORS WORK OF HUMANITY
-cowARDLY MEN AND COURAGEOUS WOMEN
AS soon as the City of New-York was made fast
10 her pier the question arose what to do with the
rescued passengers. Most of them had no clothing
and none of them had any money For some time
they waited patiently for relief from the ofncerS OF
the company, detailing to each other the mracu-
lous escape they had FROM perishing in the water
and how they we.e finally saved. The officers did
not come however to make provision for them Cab
msn thronged the pier, and took advantage OF the
distressei people by offering to take them to any
hotel for four and five dollars a piece. Their ex-
fortionato demands were resented by the captain
and officers of the City OF New-York. Finally, Mr..
Earle. the proprietor of Earles Hotel, in Canal-s
ssus word to the drivers of his stages to take all
tho people to his hotel matter whether they had
money or not Accordingly, many OF the passen-
gers accepted the offer, and were driven to the
hotel without charge. Later in tho day, an agent
from the company, who had heard that many OF
the saved passengers were taken to the hotel called
there and made arrangements with the proprietor.
He afterward saw the passengers, and offered them
tickets 10 whatever place they wanted to CO. and
sent storekeepers to measure them for what cloth
ing they needed.
When the passengers were assigned rooms in the
hotel the other guests freely offered them all nec-
essary clothing Some were only wrapped in blan-
kets, and others had all their clothing on just as
tbey were taken out of the water. Several of the
women were badly bruised, and Others injured in
ternaily' but they promptly attended by the
physician of the hotel.
BRAVE SEAMAN.
Nearly all the passengers praised i'll the highest
terms the brave action of Henry Duroy, seaman
of the United States ship Tennessee living Mt
Twenty-third-st. North River. They all said that
he saved at least forty persona He had left his ship
without leave for the purpose of visiting his mother
and when the accident occurred, at the risk OF
his own life he boldly took command of about forty
persons, and constituted himself their champion.
By his exertions they were all saved. He was in
great trouble at the hotel for fear that he would be
punished when he returned to the ship for leaving il
without permission. The passengers and guests
shep ssid they would work to reward him for his
bravery.
The following petition was then drawn up and
signed by the passengers and guests:
