The Steamer, City OF Vera Cruz Lost In O
Gale.

Gale.
ST.. AUGUSTA, Fla. Sept. 4.-The pain
ful surmises regarding steamer City of
Vera Cruz, have been fully confirmed, for
a few survivors have happily escaped
death and are now safely on shore. The
i'll fated steamer foundered at half kpast S
o'clock on Sunday morning. in the midst
of hurricane. having labored painfully
for some hours. in heavy sea. OF seventy
persons who were on board when the stea
mer left New York, only thirteen are
known to have been saved, SO that fifty
hope that any additions will be made to
the list of survivors, for. SO long a time
has elapsed since the steamer went down,
that it seems impossible for any more to
be found alive. The hurricane that coca
stoned the disaster precluded a chance of
succor from the other vessels. On Satur
day afternoon the steamer encountered
strong gale which soon increased IN fury.
The sea ran very high and the City Of
Vera Cruz labored heavily but steadily
for some hours, but the waves soon put
out the fires and the ship was entirely at
the mercy of the waves.
Capt. Vanzis aud bis officers acted
courageously in the performance OF their
several duties, but were enc By one washed
overheard from their stations az the s.ea-
mer labored in the trough of sea. As near
as can be ascertained, the captain perished
fully an hour before the vessel finally
succumbed, and as nearly all the hands
were lost, the few remaining alive On
board. now saw that there was no hope,
so they took 10 the life presergcrs. the
life boats having already disappeared, in
fact every boat and life raft was stove 10
when-tbe-t -teR hamper went by the board.
Sailors and passengers then seized frag-
ments of spars, state room doors or any
other movable article that would float.
and awaited the epd all knew to be at
hand. The surviving sailors state that the
vessel was about 80 miles off shore at the
time, the hurricane being one OF terrible
fury, By the time the ship wrecked men
aud women had equipped themselves with
their impromptu buoys, and when the
fiual catastrophe occurred. il being then
as already stated about half past 5 A. NJ,
with one awful and tremendous lurch, the
steamer suddenly sank into the oceans
whirl, carrying down many of the living,
OF 10 souls on board before the storm be-
gan, only thirteen have reached the land
alive. These thirteen were sll men. thrse
of them passengers, eight deck hands, one
engineer and one oiler. They were oil in
the water, buffetted by u tempestuous sea
for from twenty four to twenty-sixAhours.
and there is no doubt that. but for this
ordeal, many more would have been saved.
for there can be but little doubt that sew
eral persisted after the laundering OF the
vessel, through exhaustion.
