No bodies have been found since Sunday morning. ‘The second boiler was raised at 9 o’clock, Sunday night, No more machinery of any considerable weight re- mains. ‘Yeeterday morning the tackle and falls wore attached to the stern of the hull, which was raised far enough to allow of a chain being swept underneath and made fact baft thewheel. By half past eleven, the entire hull was brought up clear of the bottom to the surface, when the Operators became apprehensive that the hull would be cut intwo byachain The Coroner, therefore, suspended the work until a search should have been made with grapples fur the bodies; but no bodies have been found.

I see, this miceniee in looking over the Henan, a card Bigned by Thomas Collyer, William Radford. and J. F. ‘Tallman, in which they set forth that they will be able to prove that there was no racing with the steamers Henry Clay and the Armenia, onthe 28th inst.; and, further, they say they can prove that there were two boats, 4 cient to carry fifty pamengers, on board the Henry Clay.. if they prove these things, it will be by some hireling, ‘who will swear to ree ia I was a passenger, with my wife, on board that ill-fated boat (if I may so call her), and I am willing to testify. in any court of justice, that there were no boats aboard of the Henry Clay that day; that they were racing (as many others will testify); and, furthermore, I believe that the extra fuel used in getting up steam for the race was the cause of the boat taking fire. During the day I was several times on the forward deck, on the promenade deck, and alongside of the ladies’ Saloon, outside, next to the railing; and seeing no boats, I ‘was somewhat astonished to see a steamer in that situa- tion. I saw no effcrts used by any person, on the side of the boat above. I was in the water. I presume, a quarter of an hour, with my wife. and should have saved her, hhad it not been for getting in contact with a drowning ‘Man; and after getting clear of him. I swam to the stern of the steamer, and held on to the chains of the rudder, until I recovered my strength sufficient to swim ashore. ‘As Iewam out from under the guards of the boat, some ersom jumped off the boat, partly on my head. and be- ween me and my wife. and separated us. T then, with much ado, reached the shore. OWEN FENNELL, INCIDENTS. Emeline E, Milligan, whom we described in yesterday's Henarp as a body unclaimed, found on last Saturday morning. at Tubby Hook, ncar Manhattanville, was terday morning identified by Mr. John. Milligan, residing at No. 177 West Twenty-sixth street, the husband of the deceased, who called on Coroner Ives, and stated that his ‘wite about three weeks ago went to Cattskill, on a visit, where her mother had been on a visit for some days be- fore. During her absence, Mr. Milligan received a letter from dedesxed’s sister, which he forwarded to his wife, at Cattekill, the fore part of last weok; and this was the let- ter found on her person, which led to her identity. Mr. ‘Milligan was not aware of his wife’s intention to return £0 soon, and therefore never surmised for a moment that his wife was on board of the ill-tated boat, until he read her name, yesterday, among the dead. It is feared that Mrs, Hester Tompkins, the mother of deceased, was on board, and is among the missing bodies. We learn that in the pockets of Miss Moore, nearly $200 in gold was found, in addition to the money and articles previously mentioned. Mr. Fowlo. of this eity. is safe, He has been reported missing; but he was on the bows of the boat when she Struck. and was among the first ashore. He was convers- ing with Mr. Stephen Allen when the fire broke out. It is feared that Mr. Goorge Bell, of Alexandria, Va., his wife, wife's sister, and two children, one a girl fave years, and a boy three years old, were lost from the Henry Clay. It is stated that’Mr. Bell started from home, about ten days ago, to fetch Mrs Bell, and his child, who had been ona visit to Mrs, Bell’s father, residing near Rochester, and the family were expected at home by the middle of last week, but as yet they have not returned. THE INQUEST. SIXTH DAY.

Mr, McMahon aid a crose-examination was alway: usual. but in the case of this witness he should not rose it, < Mr. Scragham eaid it was a mere preliminary investi- gation The petty jury would find the guilt or innocence of the parties. The verdict of this jury would be in the nature of a surmito. If the Coroner arrested a party then he could cross exemine and call witnesses, Mr. McMahon said he should insist upon his client’s right. and begged the Coroner to taxe a note of this. ‘The Coroner took a note of the requisition, Mr. McMahon protested against. the Coroner having counsel. ‘The Coroner took a note of this protest. James F. De Peyster, sworn and exsmined—I live at 915 Broadway ; I came on board the Clay at Newburg; Lnoticed great exertions on the part of the runners for the rival boats; [es after [left the dock I met Mr. Gourlay. who stated that there had been great excite- ment amongst the passengers before I came on board; ‘while talking with him, we were joined by Mr. Stephen Allen. who confirmed the statement; I then went upon the hurricane deck and took a reat, bat was obliged to ‘move in consequence of the falling of pieces of coal and einders. soon after went below on the saloon deck, on the lar! side; I rat there reading until I heard the ory of fire; the | agent hl were much startled, and I can say compare the appearance of the scene to a bee hive ; I went forward a short distance, and was aseured by @ man who belonged to the boat that the awning was on fire, and that there was no danger; I then tried tonllay the excitement, and wont forward to the Indies’ saloon and calmed the ladies by telling them there was no danger, and that our safaty depended upon their keeping quiet ; I then turned round and was going forward, and met Mr Allen; he asked what I had been to do; he was ealm but evidently alarmed ; | raid there was no danger. and that it was important to preserve calmn: whilst talking with him I observed the smoke rapidly increase. and as Mr, Allen just came from forward, I was impressed with bis manner. ‘and thought there was danger; [went to tho stairway leading (o the hurricane deck 10 see how matters were on opening the door I foand the paasage filled with emoke which prevented my entrance ; seeing one of the bands on the larboard of the ladies? om T asked where the fire was, in alow tone; he answered in a low tone, “(he fire is below afterwards thore aro-e a cry of fire, aad she appeared sinking ‘rom under, ignorant of the fact of her having gone eshore, and seeing @ pereon on the hurricane deck, I thought it the best plan to get up there ; | made the attempt. but was unwilling to injure the blinds of the cabim; the second time I suc- ceeded in getting up on the larboard side ; I then saw the larboard side on fire. and the flames extending along the pipe, so that I could not see the shore ; I took off one of my boots, and unlaced the other, and taking a chair in my hand, prepared to take the water; at this mo- ment Mr, Goulay, who was on deck, came up to me and remarked thfit the only means of es- we. This deck cape was to go over the deck to the wos filled with smoke, aud T hesitated ; Mr. Gourlay and his friend left. and I was the last person who remained on that deck; I remained about two minutes, during which time the wind had driven off thesmoke, and I saw a clear passage over it ; I would remark that the larboard side was all in flames; the starboard was sinking, but not in flames ; keeping the chair in my hand, I went over with- out shoes, without suffering from the fire, and reached the extreme end of the deck and saw a man throwing out baggage ; there was no oneelse on the deck; I puton my ts and descended to the lower deck ; I looked'for pe j I walked round the main deck and looked for my ye under the hurricane deck, but did not discover it; I then went to the bow of the boat and reached the shore without getting my feet wet ; until this time I had no deubt that every passenger hud been saved; when I got om shore, I saw to my great horror a num! of passengers in the stern of the boat ; some jumping in} the water, and others falling off; I enquired for Mr. Al- len, and not finding him, was fearful that he had been lost ; if proper appliances, either boats or ropes, had begn used, and the facts had been stated by the officers, no lives would have been lost ; I did not hear a word of en- couragement or advice given, nor were the passengers in- formed at any time of the danger they were in; I knew nothing about the state of the fire until I reached th: hurricane deck, as I relied on the information of th» officers. Jobn H. Gourlay sworn and examined—I was a pas- senger on board the Henry Clay, at ‘Albany, on the 20th instant; she was a passenger feamboat, plying between New York and Albany; a short time r getting on board, I noticed considerable efforts used to induce pas- sengers to take the Henry Clay; I observed the same course pursued by the runners for the Armenia; I took no interest in the matter, because I supposed it to be a vsual occurrence; 1 got on board the Henry Clay, and she left Albany a few minutes before her time; she was a mile and a half in advance of the Armenia when the Jatter left the dock; the Henry Clay reached Hudson a mile and a half in advance of the Armenia, and the latter boat took the western channel, and passed on without landing; when we left the Hudson dock, I heard some one say we would soon overhaul her anyway; in a short period the Henry Clay appeared to be going very rapidly; as I was standing in the bow of the Henry Clay, she ap- peared to bound forward, and speeered to go faster than before she reached Hudson, and I mentioned the fast to a friend who accompanied me; I heard a great deal of talk and abuse at the Catskill dock when we arrived ther and I thought I saw a good deal of violence of feeling between the ties of the two boats; the Armenia went on and the Clay followed after making her landing; after she had left the dock I heard a young man say, who was connected with the vessel, that we had beaten her afterall; that we got 27 passengers and they 15; I am, not certain as to the former number; the (lay pro- ceeded and rapidly overhauled the Armenia, which was nearer the western shore; both boats moved side by alde for a considerable length of time; when they came abreast Ithink they might be 300 or 400 feet apart; they then came into collision; there was a man on the paddle box ready to throw out the fenders; they appeared to be each proaching towards each other; I heard some one say that the Us Slee driving the Armenia to the western shore; after the collision I heard two gentlemen denounce the officers of the Clay; there was a great deal of excite- ment among the passengers at the time of the collision; I heard ladies screaming; I was at this time on the hurri- cane deck; one ef the officers, whom I was told was Mr. Collyer, came aft, anda gentleman seized him by the arm and eaid. “This must not be, sir; it must be stop- ped;” “I said it is a rascally business; Mr. Collyerqui- etly said, “There is no danger;” the race was continued after the collision and after this remonstrance for a con- siderable length of time; we proceeded along locked or tied together for a considerable length of time. (tensa- tion.) The Clay seemed to pass the Armenia towards the western shore when, at a particular point, the Armenia threw off her steam and the Clay went ahead; at the time of the collision many gentle- men were evidently relieved when the Berd Clay had separated and on; we reached Newburg several miles ubead of the Armenia ; previous to the col- Ksion, the most excitable person on board was a young man, who had acted as an officer, and sold liquor at the bar, and helped te officiate at the gungway ; he appeared to be intensely interested that the Henry Clay should get ahead ofthe Armenia; at this time, I saw Mr. Coll- yer continuing about the vessel, desiring every one to be calm ; he appeared to be going from the pilot-house andthe main deck, and back again, and about the ves- sel; afew minutes after the boats separated, I saw the captain, and heard him say to a gentleman. in 'anawer to an inquiry how he was, that he still felt very ill in- deed ; he was standing on the starboard gangway of the hurricane deck, between the paddle box and the machin- ery ; while the boat was ineollision. the passengers were all ordered to the starboard side of the boat. that is. to the side opposite to the other boat; some ten miuutes afcer we had separated, I went to the bow ot the boat. where I saw my companion, Mr. Henry Lawrence, seat- ed; he told me he sat there for security.as he was afraid the boat would blow up, and he had his ba; oJ between himself and the boiler to shield him (Jaughter) ; at this time there were many groups of persons talkin; about the 1ace; one gentleman asked a deck hand why they pushed the Armenia #0 close to the west- ern shore; he replied, “ Because we wont tow her any longer’? (laughter); after the collison I felt somewhat easier. and told thisto the young man before alluded to who "presided at the bar; his an- swer was, that we could have got off quicker if the pas- sengers had kept to the larboard side ; we reached New- berg, where I witnessed the same scene and excitement among the runners ; one man cried to auother. “You had better go on board the Henry Clay, the Armenia wont bail ull night ;* a large number of passengers came on board at Newburg ; some time after leaving Newburg I wanted my dinn nd found the table so full that I could not get a seat ; nothing of interest occurred until we got to Wathington Irving's mansion ; we sat looking to the east bank of the river, and commenced pointing out the residences of some of our merchants and others ; after we had passed Mr. Forrest's house a short distance, I heard the cry of fire; my friend and myself rose at once upon our fect. and we shortly afterwards heard some one say, “ There is no danger, the fire is out ;’ my friend, Mr. Lawrence, said, ‘Let us take our seats again,” as much for example as any thing else, we believing that at that time the ladies were unnecessarily alarmed ; we sat probably half a minute; the smoke came up so dense through the staircase that we were both satisfied the fire was serious; as the boat was heading ashore, the wind blew the smoke to the larboard side; the whol boat then seemed to be enveloped ins mass of hot smoke below ; a friend asked me what I was going to do; I told him I should make for the bow the moment the boat’s head struck the shore; Mr. Lawrence, Mr. De Peyster and myrelf seemed to be the only pessons on the hur- ricane deck. The examination of this witness was continued when our reporter left by the last train, TRIBUTE TO MR. CRIST SUPREME COURT, BROOKLYN. Before Judge Morse. Avo. 2—Mr. Van Cott, yesterday, moved the adjourn- ment of the Court. and spoke as follows:—At this bar, Mr. Orist was always recognized as a leader. If not the first, he certainly did not oooupy & position below that of any oiher member. His mind was hehe teow d of a | cast, and it had been rigorously disciplined’ by classical and professional studies, and a boi i iV oapew in the courts. It Was quick, subtle, and soun He was careful in his preparation, and argued and tried his causes with great rkiil and judgment. No man at the bar was willing te encounter him unprepared, and no man felt that he could stand for a moment off his guard in the pre= sence of such an adversary, We have been frequent and admiring witnesses ot his forensic displays, and have all been struck with the learning and power they uniformly exhibited. I think the impression must have been general at the bar, that Mr. Crist was destined to rise to ¥ high distinction in luis profession. But while the horizon of life seemed to widen and grow brighter before him, and he proudly avticipated the “all heil hereafter’ of professional honors. the night suddenly drew on, and he was snatched away, tobeseen by us no more. Alas! sir, how man: who have girded themrelves By a youth of hard disci- pline and a manhood of severe toil, and pressed hope- fully forward in the race of life, thus drop in sight of the tained goal! Among the recent instances to which ‘ur with dened thoughts. are Graham, Sand- ‘rist. Here. where Mr. Crist waa so well known, L necd not dwell upon his personal characteristics. He was a most cheerful and agreeable companion—the life ot every circle that blood or friend: or professional as+ociations drew around him.

When the painful rumor of his loss in the ill-fated vessel reached us, I waa disposed to give it no credit. Ho was a man of extraordinary nerve. always cool, collected, and ener getic, and of all the men I ever knew, most fitted to con- front a sudden and terrible emergency; and withal an expert twimmer. and perfectly familiar with the scene of the dreadful tragedy.

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT TO J. J. SPEED, ESQ ‘There was a meeting of themembers of the Baltimore bar held on Soyostey, morning last. at the room of the Superior Court, on the subject of the death of Joseph J. Speed, Esq., at which it was resolved that the Bar would wear the usual badge of mourning for the period of thirty days, and. in a body, attend his funeral. On Suan- day, his remains, which had been brought on from New York, were attended from his late residence, No. 6L Second treet, by the members of the bar and his rela- | tives and friends, to their final resting place.

Collyer, (one of the proprietors of the | steamboat Henry Clay, who was on board at the time of the calamity,) John F, Tallman, John Germain neer,) Jas, L. Jessup, clerk, and Edward Hurlbut, the pilot. Deputy Marshal De Angelis, to whom the warrants were entrusted, succeeded, yesterday afternoon, in ar- reating Mr, Collyer, who was brought before the QGom- missioner. Mr. James Ridgeway, on behalf of the United States, demanded solvent bail to the amount ot $10,000, which was entered into, Mr, Radford, merchant. of Wes street, an ex-alderman, and, we understand, one of th) owners of the flilfated steamboat, being his surety, Th» warrant charges Mr. Collyer with “ misconduct, negli- gence, or inattention to his duty, on board said steamboat, which caused the death of Julia Hoy, then and there being a passenger on the steamboat Henry Clay, ant also cauting the death of A.J.

THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBR—FREE POSTAGE, ETC, Mr. Bropurav, (dem.) of Pa., moved that the yote passing the joint resolution allowing the Congressional Globe to pass through the mails free, be reconsidered, Mr. Warker, (dem.) of Wis , said that he would regard the motion tc reconsider as o test question, and asked what was the reason for the motion. Mr. Bropueap, said that if he understood the resolu- tion correctly, it was to allow the Congressional Globe and Appendix to circulate fiee of postage, The publishers could append as many advertisements as they thought roper. Another reason was, that each Senator and mem- x of Congress received twelve copies of this paper, and they circulated free under frank, T'his resolution was go- ing beyond what he could vote for. Mr. Wanker opposed the reconsideration. He said the postage on the Congressional Globe and dppendiz amounted to more than the subscription to the paper. Mr, Hamuty said that advertisements could not be put inthis Congressional Giobe. The post office department have decided that it is not a newspaper, and the postage on it by weight umounted to considerable. Mr. Boxtann, (Gem ) of Ark., said that the Daily Globe was excluded from this privilege. ‘hat contained ad tisements; the Congresstoxat Globe did not. favor ot extending the privilege to the Daily Globe, Mr. Brovue. “uid that mv one would ever go to the Congressional Glove to find out the jaws of the United States. Little and Brown's edition of the laws would be sought after for that purpose, instead of the Globe, Why should this privileze be given to the Gio'e, and to no other papers / Why not authorize the Postmaster Gen- eral to charge this paper with newspaper postage ? Mr. Apams, (dem) of Miss , said chis was a proposition to extend the franking privilege, which he could never agreeto, He thought that privilege was extended far eneugh, and ovght to be curtailed instead of extended. Mr. Bayanv, (dem.) of Del., said this was a private enterprise, and cunducted for the benefit of private indi- viduuls. He saw no reason why this privilege should be given to it, and not to many other valuable publications. Mr. Butrer, (dem) of 8. C., said, if it was not a newspaper or a periodical, it was certainly a book, and if this privilege be extended to it it will be sent through the mails, bound as other law books. It could be advertised and sold in allcities, as other law books, with the addi- tion that it can be sent in boxes or bags through the mails free of postage. Mr. Buicit, (dem.) of Ia., advocated the resolution.

THE DEBT OF TEXASGEN, HAMILTON'S MEMORIAL. Mr. Tovcry, (dem.) of Conn., moved to reconsider the vote by which the memorial of General Hamilton upon the subject of the Texas debt was referred. Mr. Butcer said that be heard that some members of the Finance Committee supposed General Hamilton in- tended disrespect to that committee by some remarksin bis memorial. He assured the Senate this was not tho case. He then explained General Hamilton’s position with respect to the subject, and thought he claimed no- thing but justice. Mr. Bricnt said the Committee on Finance had had this subject under consideration for a long time. Memo- rials, ike Mr, Hamilton’s, praying Congress to re; the proviso of the Boundary act, Hy Ging the $5,000, be retaimed in the treasury, had considered by that committee. The committee. some time since, had s vote on this point, and had decided unanimously to against the repeal of that proviso: ond the Senator from Maryland (Mr Pearce)-was directed to make that report. He thought that when a standing committee had a sub- ject before them, and were preparing to report, that sub- ject ought not to be referred to another committee. He hoped the memorial, like all others, would be sent to the Finance Committee Mr. Burver called for the reading of Gen.

By the arrival of the United States mail steamship Hermann, Lieut. Higgins, U. 8. N.. commander, we have received our usual files of journals and correspondence, containing news of four days? later date from Europe than received by the last steamer, ‘The Hermann left Bremen on the 16th July, arrived at Southampton on the 18th, and after having received the British and French mails, finally started from Southamp- ton dooks at 3 P.M. onthe 2ist ult. ter peaxage has, therefore, occupied twelve days and fitteeii hfurs, She brings ninety-five passengers, and, six hundged tons of freight, of which over three hundred tous are French goods. ‘ Considerable gatisfaction was expressed amongat the mercantile interests of M!nglynd, Hayre, and Bremen, at the regularity and rapidity with which the passages of these steamers have lately been performed, as compared with their former voyages. The mails and intelligence are now delivered ut the respective points in ample time 1o be available to merchants as intermediate mails. There is no doubt the improved speed will be continued, as wo understand that it has been produced by altera- tions in the trim and improvements which hve beem effected, The last outward passage of+ the Lermann was a rapid one, and the passengers subscwtbetbwards a tea- timonial to the talented commander of *tNe ship, which was presented at Southampton, in the shape of a beauti- ful silver speaking trumpet, handsomely engraved with an inscription to the abilities and gentlemanly con- duct of Captain Higgins. The Niagara arrived at Liverpool at4 P.M, on the 18th inst. ‘The Pacific arrived out at 3 A, M., on the 2ist. ‘The West India steamer Parana arrived at Southamp- ton on the 17th ult., with $805,579 specie on freight, of which $199,182 was in gold from California, The general elections throughout the kingdom were not quite concluded, when the Hermann left; the re- turns from some English and Irish counties having to comein., Enough was known of the general result, te render it certain that Earl Derby’s administration would not be able to command a working majority in the House of Commons. In fact, there were indications that the government would probably be ina minority, and would consequently have but a very short further tenure of power, Much would depend upon the voting of theas members classed moderate conservatives, and who, al- though holding conservative opinions, were free traders, and not pledged to the Derby government, although the Derbyites reckoned these members as likely to support them, yet the liberals counted on accession to their ranks from politicians of this shade, while the remnant of the Peel party, headed by Sir James Graham, would most un- doubtedly join the ranks of the liberal party, and in- crease the numerical power of the opposition. That any attempt to impose a tax upon the food of the people, will be successfully made in the new Parliament, is in the last degree improbable. Queen Victoria, Prince Albert, and the Royal Court had embarked on board the royal steam yacht Victoria and Albert, for a few days’ cruise to the westward. They were accompanied by a steam squadron consisting of the Retribution, Odin, Magicienne, Samson, Barracoata, Black Eagle, Vivid, Fairy, and Elfin, It was thought likely the equadron would anchor at Cork. The principal news from France relates to the tour of Louis Napoleon to Strasbourg to inaugurate the opening ot the new railroad, If Louis Napoleon were really nam- peror, no greater state and magnificence could be adopt- ed to give éclat to his progress through the department. ‘The Moniteur of Paris publishes the most fulsome tele- graphic despatches from various points of the route pasé= ed by the President, stating that he was everywhere re- ceived with the most joyous and enthusiastic acclama- tions, and reproducing the same styles of high-sounding phrases with which the offcial organ of the Freneh go- vernment was formerly accustomed to chronicle the royal progrerses of Charles the Tenth, or Louis Philippe, not lopg before their fall. The President reached Strasbourg on the 18th ult., where extraordinary /étes and illumina- tions were prepared, and where a monster review and sham fight took place, He was to return to Paris on the 21st ult. The corn market at Mark lane, on the 19th instant, was dull, with a partial decline of one shilling per quar- ter for English wheat; but generally speaking the sup- plies were cleared off at previous week's prices, Flour was particularly dullof sale—the extreme heat of the weather havirg greatly diminished consumption. Float- ing cargoes of wheat unchanged, but with an increased demand for Indian corn, Onts 6d. per quarter lower. Beans and peas fismly held. The Mediterranean vessels, so long detained by adverse winds, were arriving off the coast. The reports of the growing crops were generally favorable; and the weather was magnificent. In some instances, blight and mildew had appeared in the wheat, and there were renewed reports of the potatoe disease in Treland. In the money market there was no great change, and capital was abundant—further arrivals of gold from Aus- tralia having taken place. Railway shares and foreigm bonds had declined @ little from their previous high prices; but the English funds were pretty firm, In the Liverpool cotton market the demand continued moderate, prices firmly maintained, Sales on the 19th, 5,000 bales, and on the 20th, 4,000 bales, ‘The accounts of the state of trade in the provinces show, on the whole, greater activity than might have been expected during the elections. At Manchester there was no alteration, but at Birmingham increased orders had been received, while the iron trade manifested con- tinued firmness. The state of the woollen districts was satistvetory, and in the Irish linen market there was am improved demand. ‘The following is a list of the passengers PER STEAMSHI? HERMANN.
