Loss of the Ship New Era--Fright?
fnl Loss of Life. A’

At 9 o’clock Monday morning, Messrs
Charles C. Duncan «Sr. Co., of South st’..,
New York, received a telegraphic dis-
patch from Long Branch, informing
them of the loss of the packet sfiipNevI.
Era, consigned to them, with passengers
and cargo from Bremen. The first dis-
patch merely stated the bold fact’ that".
the ship had grounded on the outer Bar,
off Deal, -some .12 miles to .theisb’ut'li of
Sandy Hook. ,

The consignees immediately“ tele-

graphed to the steam-tugs, Achilles and
Leviathan, their lying inside the Hook,
to go to her assistance.
P“ Subsequent telegraphic dispatches in-
iuform us that the ship went ashore in a
dense fog, with over 400 passengers
anda crew of 30 men on board. It ap-
pears that the ship lay thumping on the
sand bar, through the .eight,' firing sig-
nal guns for assistance from the shore.
But owing to the fog, the darkness of
the night, and the heavy sea then on, it
was impossible to approach her.

At daybreak the beach was lined with
fishermen, Wreckers, and surf-men who’
had congregated from many miles along
the shore, to render assistance to the
stranded ship and her unfortunate "pas-
sengers. The roughness of the surf,
prevented them from;attemptirig :lo"gel:'

on board, and as the ship was broadside"

on, and thumping heavily, the sea all me
while making nearly a clean sweep over
her d€<-'li5.- the only ‘available nfeaiis of‘
assistance were the mortar and ' '
The stake was soon driven firmly into
the sand and the hawscr secured to it,
but up to our last accounts, afterrepcab
ed attempts, owing to the great distance
of the vessel from the shore, we learn‘
that they had been unable to send a slrot
and line over her, so that the life-car had
not been brought into use. ‘ ‘ ' _ ‘
§The fog, which continued, to prevail‘
through the day‘, occasionally lifted,"
when the scene from the the beach ‘is’
said to have been truly appalli,ng._‘i The’
hardy coastnien almost rayedjirr tlieiri’
utteriuipotsnce, and frequentarid ‘(res-"

perate attempts were made to ’launch‘''

the surfboats, but each effort only served‘
to show the impossibility of keeping a‘
boat afloat in such violent breakers. As‘:
the fog now and then cleared up for a’
few momentl, the people on shore could
see the poor emigrants clinging to vari-_
ous parts of the ship, to save themselves
from being washed into me sea. The’
bulwarks had been washed away, and
menjand women, clasping their children
in their arms, imploringly beckoning and‘
crying for succor, might, be seen scatter-1',
ed over the upper deck. “And thenia"
tremendous sea, would sweep over ‘l.ll_8ll‘l,
washing numbers from ”tiieir'frail’ hold‘
into the boiling breakers‘ below, ,'A' few‘
of these got ashore alive, bu't,,the, greatef’
portion were drowned. ,,Tho‘sé wh'o suc-

ceeded in reaching the beach ll3,d,I3,:Slled,;',ed .,V;[j,' much less difficulty and opp-osi-

themselves to planks aiid'spa'ijs,‘or olima‘
to fragments of the bulwarks, and ' by"
their aid managed to swim "past L the nu‘
dertow, when they were caught _by theft
surf.meu and saved. ,. ‘ ' , _‘
The captain and some twenty or thir-
ty of the passengers were said to have ‘
reached the beach in safety, 'l)l.ll.:‘,l10K
names are given. It is stated———_but the.‘
authority is not given—that nearly one}
half 0-’ the passengers were drowned in
the steerage shortly after the ‘vessel
struck. It certainly appears that large
numbers of dead bodies were washed
ashore during the whole of yesterday. A
At last accounts the steam-tug Achil-
les had reached the neigliborlioodof the’
New Era, but the strong sea rendered‘
near approach impossible. V
A later dispatch to the. consiguees:
states that the ship was fastbreakliig up
and that some 380 to 400 passengers still
remained on board, nearly one-half "of
them drowned in the ’tween decks.‘ and
though every effort was being made, but
slight hopes were entertained of savi_ng_
the lives of the remainder. g "
The New Era is a new ship of 1,340,
tons, having been built at Bath, Me... in
April last. and was on her first ‘voyage
when she went. ashore. She sailed from
Bremen with acargo of6l)0 tons of chalk
and 400 passengers, for ,Ne’w'York, cou-
signed to Chas. C. Duncan 8.: Co., con-
signees of the ill-fated Powhatan, lost
off Barnegatt last spring. She was
commanded by Capt. Thomas J. Henry,
formerly the commander of the Cordelia
It is not known whether the New Era

had any cabin passengers on board "or '

not. The vessel was owned by Messrs.
Hitchcock & Co., of Bath, and her cap-,
tain. The Mutual Ofiice, of_Bath, Me...
have an insurance of $10,000 upon _lrer,

the remainder of her value, '$70,000 is _

insured in Boston Offices.
I Visit to the W7-eck..

The ship laid about 300 yards from
the shore,on the outer bar, her deck lev-
el with the water, and the sea iwjasliing
over her continually. At the period of
which we write (4 P. M., Tuesday.) it
was about low water, There is no
chance of saving anything from her be-
yond her rigging. The masts were stari-
ding uninjured, and with the exception
of the loss of the mlzzen top-gallant,
she appeared to have suffered no’ darn-
nge above the hnlwarks. The fore,rnain
and mlzzen topsails were still set, as
when she went on, treeble reefedi ‘The
other sails appeared to be loosely clawed
up, and rent in many places. In the
main shrouds, the body of a female‘ was
still visible, nearly nude, her arms ‘ and
legs thrust through the crossings.

Capt. Bowiie having kindly invited us
to go on board with him, we took a seat
in the surf-boat, and were soon rowed
through the breakers and alorigsidc the
ship's quarter. VVatching an opportu-
nity, as a spent wave receded, we leaped
into the mizen rigging. Such a specta-
cle as the (leeks of the New Era their
presented, we hope never to be called to
witness again. The forecastlelwas ‘beat-
en in, and the top of the poopcabirr on
the larboard side had a large hole‘ ‘in ‘it
that the waves had made,‘ The deck
had been swept of everything.‘ Butthé’
most awful sight of all was‘ directly ‘be-
low our feet. There, between tlieiflside
of the poop-cabin and the rnizzen chairs
about a score of corpses, all stark, stiff,‘
and cold, lay in every conceivable atti-
tude of agony, rnairiied, criislied and
bruised, with eyes washed from their
sockets, with teeth set like vices, and ev.
ery feature fearfully uonvulsed 2 there
promiscuously heaped together, were old
men whose race had nearly rim, young
maidens just blooming into womanhood,
and babes whose lives were measured
but by weeks. Every age and ‘sex had
its representative here,and told in ghast-
ly types how much humanity may suffer.
The blood had frozen into blackness lie-
neath their finger-nails, and with the
half-clenched hand, showed how strong
had been the grip upon the rigging—how
long and fierce the strife for 'life—a cori-
rest in which they did not yield until the
bleak blast had frozen their hearts blood,
and unconscious hands had loosened the

life-car’. .,

‘W_1lliairn,H. Seward.

.Tlie re-election of;Mr. Seward to the
"U. S. Senate from the State of New
York, may be corisidered,-now as a set-
tled thing The State Senate, elected
last year, coiitairistwenty-two VVhig out
of thirty-two members, full twenty of
whom are Seward men- -The Assembly
just elected, will nuniber eighty VVhigs
of all stripes out of one hundred and
twenty-eig_lit membe_rs.-. : A. sufficient
number of these eig-hty_ are Seward men
to make a niajority of the whole. The
selection of Mr. Seward has been one of
the principal objectsof the canvas.—
With many V\7hig papers, it. was one of
more importance than tire,-success of the
‘-Liquor Bill. The Albany Journal, the
Buffalo Express,,.and the ,,New York
‘Times labored for it zealously and pri-
marily. 7'.'.eii lh6.=Ne.w York Tribune
desired the election to the Assembly of
Mr. Coleman, of the,As,t_or House, gain-
ingtliereby one vote for Mr. Seward,
though losing one to the, temperance
cause. . l .

The reason of all thisis obvioirs. The
battles of Temperance could be fought
any year, while this Assembly alone
would decide the fate of Mr. Seward.-

\Villiam H. Seward is now the leader
of the great Anti-Slavery party of the
Free States. To make him President,
or, at least, to place him as aprominent
candidate for the Presidency before the
people, is the great object now of the
’leailiug Ant":-Slavery pape_rs.- The Anti-
Nebraska success of the \Vesterri States
encourages his friends that he may yet
be their candidate. Hencethe necessity
of-keeping liiin- in the Senate as the lee-
der there of thegreet Anti-Slavery move-
merit.

Mr. Seward will be opposed, ‘among
other parties, by rising-sect of the Know-
Notliirigs, for he has ;beeu always in fa-
vor of encouraging fo_r_eign, voters, and
attacked the newparty warmly in the
Senate, last sessiori.——C0uTant.

The Accessory ,Tl'allSl|’. Comp:iny’s
steamship _No_r¢/z__e'r7z_L_ig/zwr, Captain 
L. Tinklepaugh. with eight days later
intelligence from California, arrived at
New York on Tuesday Morning‘. ‘She
made passage from San Juan in st“.z' (lag/s

The Nort/lei‘-n Lig/it brought 446
passeri:;ers'arid $564,406 on freight from
San Francisco, ‘per steamer Sierra. Ne-
vacla, from California‘ on the 25th of O'c'..'
tober, making the passage to New York
in twcnly (lag/.9 twelve /tours, which is
considerably the quickest yet performed
between the two cities. .

She arrived in San ‘Juan on the inor-
ning of Novemlber 5, and left for New
York on the 7th” inst. The transit
from ship to ship was made in about thir-
ty-oiic hours, the river being high and
the country healthy.

In Central America matters remain
about the same as atlast dates Clronio-
to still maintains his position in Grena-
da, and occasionally makes successful fo-
rays irito the country.

The excitement relative to the Meiggs
fraud had Legau to subside. No intelli-
gence had been received from him since
the departure of the previous steamer,
and it appears to be the general impres-
sion that he had takeu_ less money with
him than was generally supposed-—
There is probably little doubt tliata .large
portion of the amount realized from the
for-gei-ies, was absorbed in the extortioii-
am usiiry in the course of his money tran-
sactions. _

By the last arrival, we were infornied
of the arrest, "on the day previous tothe
departure of the steamer, of rsniyth
Clark, late Malyo,r’s clerk,'clrarged _with
unlawfully detaining about three hun-
dred thousand dollars of the funds belon-
ging to the city treasury, '1‘im_s' far, he
has given no satisfactory information of
the missing funds. The California Chron-
icle says that notes of hand amounting
to $l90,000’have been or "probably will
be accounted for by him; but of $113,-
000 of Couiptroller’s wa'rants, no ‘ac-
counts whatever can be obtained. Mean-
while, Mr. Clark remainsiu custody.

On the 17th of October, the day after
the departure of the previous. steamer,

Hauiilton Bowie, late treasurer of the
city of Se.n,Fr'ancisco, was arrestedon a
wrrraut issued upon affilavits n_i_ade by
Mayor \Vebb, and the present treasurer
Col. Turner. , The charges niadeagjainstl
Mr. Bowie were that he had frequently
takeuand carried away from the trees
urer’s office somewhat more than three
hundred thousand dollars in Comptroller’
warrants, and refused to surrender to his
successor the books of records and of ac-
counts belo_ngiug,to the treasurer’s_ofiice
The exaiiiinatiou in the case was still go-
ing on at tliepdeparture of "the steamer.

Efforts hadbeeu made by divers to re-
cover the treasure from the wreck of the
Yankee Blade, but without success—no
traces of its being found. The hulk had
drifted on shore, leaving the engine ly-
iug where the ship sank, in about eleven
fathoms of water. A meeting of the
j.)aSS€Ilg0fS from -ill-fated vessel had been
held, at which resolutions were adopted
charging that sheer negligence was the
cause of the wreck,.arrd censuring Ran-
dall for so soon gdeserting the wreck, and
the agents of the line for not forwarding
the passengers to New York. A com-

mittee was appointed to receive subscrip-
tious for presenting a gold watch to Mr.
Quinn, the third officer, who was tlielast
to leave the w'r'eck, as an evidence of ap-
preciation of his conduct.

The niiues continue to yield to the sat-
isfactiori of the miners. As usual tliere
are numerous accounts of murders and
other outrages. 616., ; the most brutal of
which occurred near Montery, where

Cozzstzmtmople, Oct. 28, 7,i;‘(zm;g/,,g___
The Captain of the English steamer
Pransport, which left. Balaklava-on the
eve. of rho ‘.’6th,= confirms in a great’ part
the iuforinatioii brought this morning
by a French ship. It appears that the
Russians attacked the forts in the vicini-
ty of Balaklava, on the-25th, their unin-
liers being about 20,000.

The attack was unexpected. The‘
Cossacks preceded the Infantry. To re-
sist them at first were ottoman troops and
the Scotch. The Turks ga way and
even left their guns which were seized
by the Russians and turned against them
Tire Scotch remained firm iutlieir posi-
tion. Other forces arrived and the Rus-
sians were obliged to yield. The Bus-
sians remained, nevertheless, masters of
two forts from which they fired on the
allies. 'l‘liree regiments of English
Light. Cavalry, exposed to the cross fire
of the Russian batteries suffered univer-
sally.

The French took part in the affair
with admiral bravery. ' On the iiext «lay
this P0Slll0H was attacked a body of
‘S000 Russians as well from the side of
the‘ town as from that of J3alaklava.——
They repulsed the enemy with great
slaughter. The loss of the Russians
uiiist have been great.

It is affirmed that the fire of the bat-
teries of the town had much slackened
and according to the reports of wounded
officers, some of whom have arrived at
Bayakdere, the belief continued that Se-
bastopol would be soon in the hands of
the hands of the allies,

Among the names of the killed and
wounded there are none of a general offi-
cer.” ‘

Up to the 25th the seige and bombard-
ment of Sebastopol was going on with
regularity and success. The loss of life
in the town of Sebastopol was so great
that the air was said to be tainted with
the number of the unburied dead. ' Ad-
miral Macbinoff had been -killed "by a
shell. The loss’ of the allies is compara-
tively small and Lord Raglan is under-
stood to be favorable to a -long-bombard
ment in preference to an immediate as-
sault. - -

On the contrary, the Weine Zeitung
publishes the following: .

"Kizckenefi Bessambia, Oct. 29th.-—
Oii the 25th Genl. Lepraudi attacked the
detached camp of the English and took
the four redoubts which protected their
position. The assailant also took eleven
guns. At the same time, such a power-
ful cavalry attack wasniade that it prob-
ably cost the English halt the light cav-
alry. Lord Cardigan, who commanded,
escaped with difficulty. Lord Dunkel-
len was taken prisoner.”

Greek accounts from Odessa confirm
this, and say that the English cavalry
lost 500 men. » -

It is certain that the Russiaushave re-
ceived cousiderable reinforcements and a
still stronger corpse was expected from
Perekop.

In the recent attack upon the forts at
the mouth of Sebastopol harbor, the ves-
sels of the allies were much damage.

The British were said to be within
300 yards of the Cussian works, but the
French works were not strong enough
and had been much injured. '

A deserter stated that the Russian loss

Lepraudi's alledged victory- The affair
is understood to have-taken place near
New Eupatoria, where the allies were
on the lookout for the Russian reinforce-
‘ merits.
British cavalry were attacked, but the
French advanced to their assistance and
‘the Russians retired.) -

The Russian accounts leave matters
entirely obscure. Russian dispatches
say that the allies have suffered two se-
vere defeats, the French had their works
destroyed, and sixteen guns spiked; and
the English cavalry were attacked by
Menschikoff at Balaklava and routed
with a loss of 500 horses.

The Anglo-French reports do irot give
any explicit denial. They only say that
the Russian story is improbable and ex-
aggerated. Q

The allies state that two Russian ships
were destroyed in a harbor; also that
the quarantine batteries were silenced,
and a bastion of Fort Constantine dam-
aged by the explosion of a magazine.-

sharp fighting. '

‘Lord Dunkellens family has been in-
formed by the English Government that
his reported capture is not true, or at

that had been careened over in the bar-

by the fire of the allies.

Death ot Father Brady.

Rev. John Brady, pastor of the R0-
man Catholic Church in this city, died
last evening, very suddenly, of cholera.
He was taken Wednesday evening. and
lived about twenty-four hours. Father
Brady has resided in this city a great
many years, and much of the prosperity
of the Roman Catholic Church in this
place is owing to his efforts. He had the
very general respect of our citizens.
Caurant.

HARTFORD, Nov, 17.

The city has this morning been the
theatre of great excitement, growing out
of the refusal of the Roman Catholic
Bishop to allow the remains of Father
Brady to be buried near the Church. In
consequence of some difficulty, the Bish-
op had suspended Brady; and the treat-
ment the latter had received is believed
to have induceditlie disease with which
he died. Yesterday a grave was dug,
and this morning the hole was found filled
by order of the Bishop, but was;re-open-
ed by the people.

Dhe Bishop had refused the opening
of the Church for funeral services, but
after some delay the people obtained an
entrance, when, itwas found the ‘altar
had been deranged, so as to preventrlngh
mass being celebrated, but the people
again triumphed, and at 12‘ o‘clock the
services proceeded, '

[GP The Hartford Times’, in an'nouu-
cing the death of,R.ev. Jolrn Brady, the
Romish Priest in that city, says it was
hastened by the injustice of his Bishop,
who was scheming to secure -possession
of all the property of the Parish. Fath-
er Brady resisted the unjust»and,oppres-
sive acts of ibis Bishop, and to punish
him,‘ he was prevented from preaching.

At last, says the Times, "Father Bra-
dy attempted to enter the Church one
night to-procure some “holy water” for
the consolation ’of a dying parishioner.
He was fiopposed by the Sexton of the
church, who it seems acted under in-
structious from the Bishop, and Father
Brady found his ingress stopped at. the
threshold of his own Catliedral—the
child and pet of his life. He” ordered
the man away, but he would not go.--
He struck the Sexton in. the face, and
the Sexton returned the blow. Wheth-
er the “holy water was procured or not,
we do not know, and of itself, it is of no
censequence, as any other water would
have answered just as well. The.Sex-
ton appealed to the Bishop, and Father
Brady was suspended as Pastor of the
church. }This seemed to cutjhim to the
heart ;, but it was generally supposed

that he would soon be re-iustatedp Such
however, was not the fact. , On Sunday
last it was aiiuounced in the churchthat
the connection of Father Brady with the
flock that he had guarded so well as§Pas-
tor, was severed ; and that the Rt.‘Rev.
Hughes, of Providence, would take his
place. This was the barbed arrow to
the heart of‘-the good old man.”

Bread Swindlers.

There was a great commotion among
the bakers of Troy. last Thursday, in con-
sequence of the seizure of a portion of
their stock of bread, on the complaint of
sundry sufferers that it was below the
weight required by law. Their loaves
were weighed, and one hundred and ten
of them were confiscated and given to
the overseer of the City Poor for distri-
bution. They were from one to four
ouuces short of legal weight. it isa liaid
case to be compelled to pay the present
extravagant prices for flour and bread,
and then be cheated in weight or meas-
ure. Yet the swindling in this respect
extends to almost everything consumed.
Consumers might better protect them-
selves by occasionally weighing over
their purchases. .If the dishonest trader‘
knew this a frequent cusrorii, he would
be more_car_eful about short weight.
