= THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 18% STORM AT SEA. Severe November Gales on the tlantic Ocean. Wreck of the Steamship Caroline and Bark Assyria. Senator Sumner’s Vivid Description of His Trip in the Baltic, Three Ocean Steamships Severely Bat- tered. Special Despatch to The Chicago Tribune. Xew Yorg, Nov. 26.—Senator Summer re- “turned to-day, on the steamship Baltic. To a reporter, who visifed him at the Brevoort House, be said: “I am not fully well yet; I ‘have been with my docter for a full hour to-day; many of my frionds, English aa well es American, -advised me to stay longer in Euwope, sod I think perhaps I Tight have been bepefited by so doing, but I could not reconcile my mind to it. To & man of my sentiments it is & difficalt thing toneglect his duty. I should mot have been happy in Eurove.” knowing that my dut; valled e here. On the wlhole, thought it best to _come home. The news ‘of the fire in Boston was a terrible shock to my feelings. I Imew very well that I could donothing to help them, but still I thought T ought to be here. _ Mr. Sumner then gave the following charse- Zeristic narrative of a fhrilling incident of his homeward voyage mcross the Atlantic: ‘“We left Liverpool on the evening of Thursday, Nov. 14. Wo had gone on board early iu the 2fternoon, bub the tide was sgainst us, aad we were forced to wait. It wasa mosi charming sail down the Irish Channel to Queens- town, and I began to flatter myself that I, who «m very sensitive on that point, was to escape ¥rem the plague of gea sickness. I alwayslook- ed from causes to effects, and I finally conclud- «<d that my good forfune was due to the large size of the ship, and I mentally resolved never &gain to go o sea in inferior vessels, I wrote jubilant letters to my friends in England, and €ent them from Queenstown. I wasin quite a fever of joy. We put to sea from Queenstown, and enjoyed pleasant weather until Monday, the 18th; then s gale erose. Capiain Kennedytold xo that in 133 voyages he had made aoross the Atlantic, hsnever saw its equal. The sen rounded our noble ship witkout mercy. Ilay &ick in my berth, and could hear the hammerin, of the heavy waves upon the solid iron whicg asurrounded me. They stove intwo of our boats, &nd broke the iron staunchions like pipe-stems ; the water came into the cabin and state-rooms through the ventilators, All the ships of that line, you know, are well ventilated, and thereby hanga s tale. The ventilators which let in the airlikewise let in the water. There was hardly a passenger whoee berth was in 3 fit condition to sleep in; Ihad sn entire state-room to myeelf, and the eofs and two berths were all water-soaked. The officers gave me temporary accommodation insome distant recess of the ship, which I could never have found my~ zelf. They led me there, and put me to bed. It was small aod dark, but still it was dry, and there I entombed myself, and heard the waves pounding againgt our noble old ship. It was while I was in thig seclusion on Mondsy, that the boats were visited go violent- l{hy the waves. On Tuesday Idid not get up. ‘Tremendous waves were mpsing sgainst the siSB of the ehip, and it scome; stave everything to pieces. The steamer was very unessy thet night, and the sea gan high. = On Wednesda; st noon & vessel was sighte({ in the horizon. Her mizzen-mast was gone, and her flag Union down—a signal of distress. The Captain at once bore down upon her, and. 85 we gradually drew nearer, her condition became more apparent. It wes about 1 o'clock before the passengers became mware of it. I was st funch. Ihurried on deck, and there, full be- fore me, at s distance, but _ stil sbsolutely before me 8s in & frame, was this ter- xible picture of a ehip dismasted and with & cer- toin number of human beings standing upon the %op of the cabin. The cabin was elevated above Ehe deck, over which the eea was washing, and there 'they wero huddled together. Captain _ Blanche told me afterward that 2hey bad been for forty-eight hours in the rig- ging. They had divided themselves into two squads, and climbed to the mast-heads. They tad eecumulated water and provisions up thers, but to be in that position for forty-eight hours must have been terrible. The ship was with- out a rudder, drifting to and fro, and her =aile were split, actuaily flying like so many xibbons as the hulk rolled restlessly sbout. t an immense ares those four_fellows must as if they would Bbave travelled in the air? It was ter- xible. The Captein, in describing it %o me, said that the deck - at +imes was fifteen feet wunder water. The ship was loaded with timber, and they knew she could not sink as long as she held together. ‘The danger was that the constant pressureof the masts upon the hull and keel would force ber apart, and then rhe would be a mere dialecta membra._ They saw our sh.lg at 10 in the morning. It was the first glad &ight they had seen for foriy-eight hours. Cap- “ain Kennedy called for volunteers to man the life-poats. The first boat wee quickly manned 2nd commanded by the second officer. It was @ touching sight to see that boat leave the side of our steamer, she seemed g0 small a thing to battle with those ‘huge waves. The passengers crowded on deck and looked after her. She reached the wreck in safety. The officer drove her forward upon a towering waye. She neared the side of the drift- ing ship, and five men leaped uponher. Then she was hended again toward the steamer. The five rescued men were landed safely on our deck, but the boat lost her rudder, and was unable to re~ turn to the wreck. The second bost was under the command of the third officer. It reached the wreck and thrce men leaped sboard. Then nlarge wave carried it off. 'Two more of the sufferers were dragged aboard by ropes. One of thess was a negro. ‘The bozt was large enough to iske more, and the officer proposed to pull along side again; but the bow oarsman became stricken with panic, and his panic infected the whole crew. He cried out, *“ We can’t take any more. 1f we iouch that ship again we shall go down. Pull!” BShould the officer sirike for the wreck again ? He _held 8 rope attached to the wreck, and he tried to puil the boat alongeide, but the oarsman gave the word to pull ‘for the ship again, and the -officer was powerless. He had seven poor suf- fering creatures in the boat, and the sea was yunning very high. He submitted to his men, and returned to the steamer. The ‘panic-struck oarsman was the firs} to strike our deck. Thero were still men clinging to thb wreck. and another ect of yolunteers was called for. The sailors hung back. Then two of the saloon stewards came forward and offered to go. One of them took the bow oar, ard the oficer esys ho managed ic with great skill, As Boon as 28 the wreck was reached three men leaped ubeard. The Cupiain and one man were still on the Wr “ Pull egain !” shouted the officer, and the noble-hearted stewards brought her nlongeide again. The Captain was the last man 1o leave the lost ship. The passengers of our etesmor were all very much tonched by the scene, and in the_evening at dinner, at the suggestion of many, I called the attention of the saloon passengers to what we had that day wit- nessed. My remarks were followed by others, who suggested that contributions be taken for car own heroic sailors and the poor fel- lows who had been shipwrecked. A Committce was appointed, -of which Ivas the Chaimnan, to collect and distribute eubscriptions. In a few hours we had collected upwerd of £34—2490. The nextdsy we Lelda scssion of our Committee to decide as to the proper mothod of distributing the money. There were many things to be considered, and we conducted the business in true Congressional style. The session lasted three or four hours, .ead we had before us Captains Kennedy and Blanche, and the two officers who had command- ed the boats. We_finelly decided on the follow- ingdistribution: We gave £2 to each of our own seamen, except those who bad practically mutinied, who went to the wreck. To them Wwe gave nothing. To those who went to the wreck twice, we gave £4; to each of the brave stewards who, not being sailors, did sezmen's duty, we gave £4; to Captain Kennedy, we gave £10, with instructions to have a ring ‘made for each of the two officers, with an appropriate in- scription. To each of the a!.\ipwreckag, sailors we gave £1; to the third ofiicer of the Assyria, £3; to the second officer, £5: Imh'n some £17, we' pra’sen::g "23 Capt. che 28 of the Committeo. I msde this zevort to the passengers, and they unenimously Approved it. And now, sir, “takin bis tegs from the chair nd smiling,” have told you all I keow about the wrecke: of the Assyria, Bhe was an English vessel, bu;nfl ‘15:%?

New York, Nov, 28.--The steamship Baltic, from Liverpool, trrived this orning, having bad a remarkably rough passage. She bronght with her the Captain and crew of the ship As- syria, of Newcestls, England, which was water- ln%ed and nbandoned. On the 19th, during & heavy gale, a ship, which proved to be tho ~Assyria, was sighted off the port bow, with her main-fopmast gone, & signal of distresr, ~ The course of the steamer wes at_once hltered, and in abont ‘an hour the digabled vessel was reached, when it was found te be water-logged and completely helpless. Ars rangemehts were at once made to rescue the crew of the ill-fated ship, which was finally ac- complished, znd after great difficulty and danger by a volusteer boat's crew from the steamer. The p2rty rescued numbered 19, At the instanca Charles Sumner, who was a passenger on the Beltic, a collection was taken up among the pas- sengors for the benefit of the rescued crew, and of the officers and men who saved them. The steamship Egypt, which arrived yester- dsy, encountered a heavy gale on the 18th, and the waves, which broke over her deck poured down into the cabin, setting everything afloat. The water on the sa- loon deck was two fest deep. During the gale the steam funnels and ventilators were swept &way, and such was the force of the waves that the iron 1Fumping apparatus was twisted so to be practicelly useless. Two of tho boats were smashed, one of them being completely de- molished. i N The eteamship ¥urops, just arrived from' ' Glasgow, 9th, reports encountering on the 18th & terrific hurricane, with the sea fearfullyhigh. The ship, laboring heavily and shipping large quantities of water, hove to for seventeen hours, with split sails, etc. On the 2lst she passed & large steamship bound west with the loss of her foremest, boats, ete.

New Yonk, Nov. 26.—The Herald furnishes the following account of the loss of the steam- ship Caroline. She left Baltimore Oct. 86, for Queenstown ; encountered a terrific westerly gale Nov. 4, the ship scuddingbefore it under all steam, but shipping heavy seas which broke up the engineers’ and mates’ houses, staving in the ront of the galley, washing all berths down on starboard side and filling the stoke hole. At moon the wind veered suddenly to the northward, blowing 8 hurricane with & tremendous ses, the ship coming to against her port Lelm, filling the fore-deck with water, ‘which ran down upon the boilers. At 2p.m.the starboard fires were out, and at 3 the port fire was also extinguished. The donkey engine being wunable to work the pumps, all hands were set to work at 8 p.m. bailing with buckets, the water still gaining. At 11, they ‘began to throw the cargo overboard 28 the last means of kecping the ship afloat. At midnight there were ten feet of water in the hold. Pump- ing, bailing, and throwing cargo overboard continue till the 14th. The leak gaining, the crew complained of exhaustion, and asked the Captain to let them take to the boats. He told tkem the half-sunken ship was better than the oren boat, and they recommenced work. The water gained to five feet in'the hold and nine in the engine room, the crew satill heaving cargo when the bark Magnus Lagobeter hove in sight, answered the signals of distress, took the crew on beard, and brought them to New York.

POLITICAL INTRIGUES AT SPRINGFIELD. Special Despatch to The Chizago Tribune; SeRrNGrizD, I, Nov. 26.—Now that the Senatorial succession is settled in favor of Gov- ernor Oglesby, the further question is also set- tled that General Beveridge will be Governor of the Btate for the remainder of theé term, after Oglesby shall resign to take his seat in the Sen= ate. This condition of affairs has suggested to Senators-elect a vacancy in the office of Presi- dent of the Senate. According to the eighteenth section of Article 5 of the Constitution, the Lieutenant Governor shall be President of the Senate, and ehall vote only when the Senate is equally divided. The Sen- ate shall . choose a President pro lem. t6 preside in case of the absence or im- Eeachmenk of the Lieutenant Governor, or when e shall hold the office of Governor. A lively contest is already going on pmong the Republicans-elect for the }wuifion of President pro_tem. of the Senate. The Hon. P. H. Ban- ford, of Knox County, is most prominently spo- ken of for the place. . There are a number of others, among whom is Benator Whiting, of Bureau County, who as- pire to the position. Indeed, so far as your cor- respondent has prosecuted his inquiries, he has found no Senator who is totally disinclined to acceptthe place. Even SenatorShort, of Vermil- lion County, whose majority was 147 in & district which gave the remainder of his ticket 2,000 ma- orits,Is eaid to bo willin' Altogethor, thero will b & spirited contest for the position of pre- siding officer of the Senate. The defeat of Judge W. H. Underwood, of the 8t. Clair County District, for the Senate, is very much regretted by his friends, in view of thig vacancy. Their only consolation is that, although he was beaten in & largely Republican Distric! it was by the Hon, James Hinchcliffe, who wi fill his place on the floor of the Senate.

C., at the Zribune bu rean, to-night, says that only one ballot was taken to-day for United States Senator, in place of Pool. The Conservatives, having & clear ma- jority of 23, were unable to unite on & candi- date, and a split occurred. The joint ballot stood: Vance, 78; Pool, 73; and Merrimon, 18. 1t is believed in Raleigh, to-night, that to-mor- Tow the Republicans, who to-day voted for Pool, will unite with the Merrimon men and _elect the latter. The main object of the Republicans is to defeat Yance, who is very obnoxious to them. ALABAMA LEGISLATURE.

Itis probable that his leg will have to be amputated above the kuee; as the bone was much crushed snd the flesh frightfully lacerated. Those who witnessed the affairspoke of tho Illinois Central Railroad Company in any but complimentary terms, and characterized the running of trains within the city limits at such 8 rato of speed. as it was claimed the Cincinnati express was going when it E:azed Fairview, as an outrage which should prevented in the future by an appeal to the Courts.
