ANENGLIsH IRoN-CLAD ASHORE
How a Great Ship Pounded on a
Bank.
From the london Standard.

from LNe LOnU071 GJI7bdNTQ.
Letters received Nov. 8 at Davenport
from Rio de Janeiro, dated Oct. 1, con-
tain particulars of the narrow escape OF
the iron-cIad Swiftsure, CAPTAIN the Hon.
T. S. Brand, which grounded on an I'M
known bank and was in great danger OF
laundering. She left Sandy Point under
fun steam on Sept. 10, so as to get clear
of Cape Virgin as early as possible, and
was abreast of Cape Elizabeth Island,
5teaming at the rate OF eleven knots,
when she suddenly bumped on a bank
with so much violence that officers and
men were thrown of their legs. All
bands Immediately rushed on deck and
every precaution was taken for the
safety of the ship, orders being instantly
given by the captain to close
all the water-tight doors. The
vessel heeled over about ten de-
grees to starboard. Preparations were
made to get all the boats out, and the
precaution was taken to draw all the fires
and empty the boilers so as to avoid the
danger of an explosion. AS the tide rose
the ship gradually righted, and eventually
the boats we're holsted out, and projectiles
passed into them; the stream anchor was
got out, and the cable run. The engines
were kept reversed astern, and the men
had begun to tighten the ship by throwing
overheard her deck cargo of Goals, when
the Swiftsure suddenly went of into deep
water, after having been ashore four
hours. Divers were afterwards sent
down to ascertain the extent of the
damage done 10 the vessel, and they re-
ported that it was not serious, although a
hole had been knocked between the plates
and the wood sheathing, and the vessel
shipped 80 much water that the pumps
had to be kept going until the hole had
been plugged. She had struck on bank
Of sand which is not, it is said, marked in
4ha chart.
