The forpner, prior to swearing in the jury, informed them at it would be impossible for him at present to tell ow long a time the case would occupy, and, as any of the bodies now lying in the dead-house in a very mangled condition, he therefore pro- d to the jury to give certificates for the buria the bodies, the friends being anxious to have them; ad, fnrthrr, he would now state tothe gentlemen pre- nt, that if there was any one whom he had called who wuld not bestow the time, be would be pleased to have Fim say s0 now, and he would excuse him, as he did not ish to interfere with the business of any one who could ot bestow the time. The gentlemen whose names had eady been called made no reply, and, of course, the ordmer took it for granted they were all willing to serve. The following gentlemen were then sworn, and Mr. /-hn N.

A motion was adopted to the cileet that a committee of tMfree be appointed from the Board of Foremen, to con- fer with the committee from the Common Council to make the necessary arrangements for the funeral. The committee of ten appointed to draw up resolutions here entered the room, and presented the following:— Whereas the New York Fire Department, by the late disastrous fixe in Broadway on the 25th’ instant, do mourn the fenrful lors of life among its members, hith- erto unprecedented in the annals of the department: and whereas, in view of so sad a calamity, we are called upon to make some expression of our feelings and sym- pathy in their afiliction with the friends of the de- ceased—therefore, Resolved, That we deeply sympathize with the af- flicted families and friends of our aeceased companions, in their sudden end irreparable loss, end we humbly trust that they will endeavor to find consolation in their bereavement in the thought that it is ogr duty to pa- tiently submit to the will of au ail-wise Providence. ved, That in respect to the memory of deceaset the Fire Department will attend the funeral on April 30, at one o’clock, and that, as a further mark of respect, we will wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty days. Resolved, That a copy of the above be sent to the families of ihe deceased, and published in the daily papers. A motion of Mr. Brioux, of Hydrant Company No. 2 was adopted, Inviting the trustees of the Fire Depart ment, exempt firemen, President and officers and represen- | tatives of the department, to attend the funeral, and that the Board of Aldermen and Councilmen be also invited. A Musmzr stated that the funeral of John B. O'Donnell would take place to-day, (Friday,) at 10’clock, and ex- tended an juvitation to the whole department to attend it. Timoiy L, West presented the following resolutions, which he accompanied with some severe remarks on the conduct of Mr. Jenning: Whereas, the destructive fire at No. 231 Broadway, on the evening of the 25th inst. was attended with a loss of Me Coroner informed the jury that he desired em to view the bodies now, and by their e | b could not otherwise,) he would give cect | | | ¢ burial of the deceased.

The jury viewed the bodies in the Hospital, and then to view those of McNulty, O'Donnell, and Schenck. lowever, prior to the jury being dismissed for the day, oroner Hilton requested them to meet at the same place ten o'clock on Friday morning, when he would pro- ped fo take evidence. The witnesses in the case were iso requested to be punctual in their attendance. We are happy to be able to state that Dewitt L. Alston not dead as reported, but has escaped with a few slight juries. ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS. The house of Engine Company No. 21 is draped with hourning, in respect to the memory of the deceased fire- ‘Two banners are displayed in front of the build- Rig. having the following words inscribed upon them:— becoscocoooecs occa con Bo lose We Mourn our Loss. ° ° Se ee bocooc cope coe sooo c ago oCC OCS h it, ee ge b socccocccccecocccesscsools Flags were also displayed at half-mast from the City gril and other public buildings, as a mark of respect for he dead. Mr. John Reinhart, not noted amongst the number of hose killed at the late fire in Broadway, was taken from he ruins dead. He had been assisting at the hose of Engine Company No. 11 when the fatal accident took place. The body of James McNulty. late of Engine Company 10. 20, was yesterday conveyed by members of his com- pany to St. Peter’s Church, Barclay street, where funeral vice was held, and a very impressive discourse de- ivered by the Rey. Mr. Quin, pastor. The very imposing haracter and solemnity of the service held during the height of a storm of almost unexampled severity, ombined to renter the proceedings such as could not fail to create a lasting impression on the feelings of those mbled. From the church the body was conveyed to receiving vault, preparatory to interment, with others of his unfortunate comrades, in Greenwood. “The unrecognized body denominated the ‘Old Fire- n,’? supposed to be named Wilson, remains at the i house. The coroner describes him to be about five feet eight inches, light complexion, light brown hair, jabout fifty years of age, dressed in dark woollen pants, drab overcoat, resembling that of a fireman, blue-black frock coat, no vest, white muslin shirt, and white wool- len ribbed netted undershirt, blue and white checked silk cravat, His legs are burnt off, and he is otherwise so much disfigured, by burning, that it is almost impossible to give a more perfect description. We understand that Chief Engineer Carson declines to accept this body as a member of the Fire Department, and Mr. J. M.Clawson, an ‘Undertaker, in Pearl street, has taken the body in his b care for interment. . The American Hotel was not damaged to any extent, and the report that the loss of the owners would amount to eight thousand dollars, is entirely incorreet. ‘The Third Avenue Railroad Company adopted a resola- tion lost evening, to pass the firemen in attendance at the funerals of their deceased brethren, free over their Toad. We are requested to state that the St. Mark’s Fire Insurance Company sustain no loss by the fire in Broad- way and Borclay street. MEETING OF FIREME . PREPARATIONS FOR THE FUNERAL. In accordance with the notice published in the morning papers of yesterday, a meeting of the foremen and offi- cers of the Fire Department was held last night in the chamber of the Board of Councilmen, to make suitable arrangements for the celebration of the obsequies of those life unparalleled in the annals of our Fire Department: and Whereas, such a calamity is one calculated to fill the mind of every being actuated by the common sensi- | Dilities of humen nature with feelings of the deepest horror and anguish; and whereas, an event like this is one which should not be passed over ina light manner, but tlie causes which led to it should receive the severest sorutiny and investigation; and whereas, the occupants of the building which thas sed this calamity, William T: Jennings & Co., bave ither given any ex} ‘tion: a statement of their upinion as to the causes of the e fire, nor manifested, eveu by words, any expression of sympathy for the deceased or their frieonds—therefore, Resolved, That it is due to the memory of our deceased associates, agd to their families, that an investigation should be male into the origin of the fire at 281 Broad- way. the construction of the building, and the causes which led to the melancholy event we have met here this. night to deplore. Resolved, That a committee be appointed, to consist of one from the Engineers, one from the Engine, Hose, Hook and Ladder and Hydrant Companies, who shall apply to. Sidney A. Stuart, Exq., Police Justice, to institute a most thorough, searching and minute investigation into the origin of ‘the fire and the cause of the sudden fall of the building, and that for that Laploryd he compel the atton- dance of the owner, occupants and every person employed about the premises, and such others as may be neces sary. Resolved, That William T. Jennings & Co. owe it to themselves, to the Fire Department and to the public, in view of the awful deatrobdlo: of life on their premises, to haye at once made public all the facts within their knowledge in reference to this fire, and that their neglect 80 to do manifests an aj parent disregard on their part of dhe common feelings of humanity, and cannot but create in {he mind of the public and the flremen impressions of the most unfavorable nature. ‘These resolutions were adopted, but they were after- wards, on motion, reconsidered, and Mr. West was per- mitted by the meeting to withdraw them. Another mo- tion, in favor of adding Mr. West to the committee of ten, was also adopted. A vote of thanks was passed to the Commoh Council for their prompt and energetic action in the case.of the fire; after which the meeting adjourned. ‘ ‘The arrangements for the funeral ceremonies will be made by tNe Board of Engineers and a committee of four from the Board of Foremen. THE FUNERAL OF J. B. O'DONNELL. At one o’clock this afternoon the funeral of John B. O'Donnell will take place from the residence of his father, No. 41 Oliver street. The members of Engine No. 43, and the friends and acquaintances of the family, are in- vited to attend the ceremony, A TRIBUTE OF GRATITUDE..

Terrible Disasters and Loss of Life—The Steamer Enlesson Sunk in the North River, we. Another dreadful storm, freighted with disaster, pasa- ed over our city yesterday afternoon. Within the last fortnight we have experienced the extremes of weather; having in that time bad a snow storm, attended with | chilling winds and all the other appurtenances of winter, and yesterday a heavy thunder storm, preceded by a hot, sultry atmosphere, and attended by vivid lightning, drenching rains, furious whirlwinds, and all the other pWaphernalia of a real, genuine midsummer shower, wh.en the very earth trembles beneath the crash of ethe- rial var. Fer want of a more reasonable hypothesis to accou Ut for the severe snow storm a few days ago, we ventured to adopt the theory of certain geologists, that the’ earth was gradually losing its equilibrium, and bad keeled over a little towards the North Pole, bringing us into the latitude of Labrmior, or the Canact This supposition, no one will deny, was justified by the occasion which that very celebrated indwi- dual, ‘‘the oldest inhabitant,’ said had ro precedent ix his memory; at least, driving sleet, glistening icicles, ant cold howling wintry wimds in the middle of April, wat suggestive of a nearer relationship with tie polar zone™ than is generally supposed, Whether we were entirely correct in adopting this theory it is not necessary to argue now. Yestevtay satisfed us that we are all right now, and if we were little while ago tipped over to the north, we congratulate ourselves that we hae fallen back to our old position: The prevailing wind yesterday was from the southeast, and it was still blowing freshly from that quarter, when, about five o'clock in the’ afternoon, a dense mass of clouds began to coil up in'the west. In the short space of half an hour they had overshadowed the sky, their general direction being im the very teeth of tho-at- mospheric current, which up to this time had con- tinned. During the day the’ weather was very warm, heavily charged with heat. The storm in the after- noon was sudden and unlooked for, owing to whiep hundreds received a shower batif gratis, and some of the latest fashions, for the first time making their appear- ance on Broadway, were drenched with floods from the skies, ‘The storm was accompanied by a perfect tor” nado, ripping awnings into strips, tumbling chimney- tops to the ground, and tearing the flags hoisted upon ) M.

Vivid fiashes of lightning gleamed im the heavens, and heavy, erashing thunders shook the earth, jarring houses to their foundationa The rain fell im torrents, and the streets overflowed with swelling floods. As might Rave been expected, such a storm brought disasters, especially to the ship- ping, which we collect, as follows :— LOSS QF THE ERICSSON. The caloric steamer Ericsson was returning from her trial trip down the bay, and was opposite to pier No. 5 North river, when the storm came on, struck and sent her to the bottom. As soon we heard of this catastrophe, we endeavored to learn the full particulars of the loss, and found that various and conflicting rumors were afloat in regard it. It was generally believed the vessel was struck by lightning, but this report, upon in. quiring, we foun to be false. The truth is, she was capsized by the squall, filled with water, and gradually sunk. As soon as the storm struck her— a few minutes after 5 o’clock—she careened on her beam ends, and water passed into her through the “dead lights,’ which wore open. She soon after righted and commenced sinking. The sntail boats of the Asia, lying at the Cunard dock were immediately dispatched to the aid of those on board. Small boats also came from neighboring vessels, and steam tugs also came to hér re- lief, One of the Jersey City ferry boats, the Jersey City, Capt. Price, also went off to her; but as there were only a few persons on board—it being a trial trip—they were got off in season and before the ferry boat arrived. ‘The ill-fated Ericsson soon after sunk, and now lies with the top of her ~hotbeapes amd her Lowapritiguat to view above the water. She has gone down in about 8 fathoms water. With the company on board there were several ladies, who were much frightened by the accident, as well they might have been, for it was a dis aster which would no doubt have resulted in great los of life, had she been further from the shore and the as- sistance she received. Some dreadful fatality seems to attend this vessel. It ia now over two years since she was built, and her progress so far has been one continual accumulation of difficulties and disasters. We learn that her trip yesterday gave much satisfaction to those ‘on board, until the dreadful tornado struck her and so. sadly terminated the excursion, and which must operate very much against the invention which the vessel illus- trates. OTHER DISASTERS—SUPPOSED LOSS OF LIFE. By the violence of the storm a number of sloops, off the Battery, were driven ashore on the rocks piled up for the Battery extension. When the storm abated they were got off, without much damage having been done them. members of Hose Company No. 19,- for their kind atten- tion in conveying my son to his home. Iam happy, in conclusion, to add that the notice in the evening Zimes is ino far erroneous, that my son. is not fatally, though severely, injured.

Timothy Waters, Jr., one of the injured firemen, in be" half of his brother, Patrick H. Waters, who was £0 se- verely injured at the fire in Broadway on the evening of the 25th inst., returns his thanks to the following gen- tlemen for the professional and gentlemanly deportment evinced towards him:—Dr. Cheeseman, Dr. McComb, Dr. Chapin, Dr. Derby, Dr. Henry Thurston; Messrs. Roberts, Ketchum, and Roome, Superintendents; J. Witham, gatekeeper; Messrs. Fare and McDonald, nurses. Police Intelligence. Good Police Appointments —The Commissioners of Po- lice have reappointed Mr. James Leonard as Captain of the Second ward police. Mr. Leonard Ims been captain of that district for the last six years, and has alwa; filled that office with honor to himself and credit to the city. His reappointment by the Commissioners is an evi- dence that his services are valuable to the city. In the Fourth ward Wm. 8. Williston has been reappointed Se. cond Lieutenant, which is also an excellent appointment. Michacl McCarm has been appointed Second Licutenant of the Nineteenth ward. Astaulting a Sailor—A Desperale Affair—A sailor named William Lamaretti, an Italian, on board the ship Ocean Queen, lying off the Battery, came to the police court yesterday, and made onth before Justice Clarke, that the mate of said ship had violently beaten him with an iron belaying pin, striking him on the head, cuttin him severely, knocklug him down, and kicking him ‘about the body. Thepor sailor said Re was afraid of bei murdered, and, therefore, jumped overboard, and would probably have drowned had it not been for the assist: ance of a boatman, who rescued him from the river an‘ conveyed him on shore. This is the story as told by the sailor, on which the maglstrate iasued a warrant for the arrest of the mate. An Attempt ot Murder—A Husband Syooting Ms Wife— On Wednesday evening, a man named John Deal, residing at No. 480 Fourth avenue, was arrested by officers Vitter and Langstein, of the Twenty-second ward, charged with shooting at his wife with @ piatol, the contents of which shattered her thumb, badly without doing her any bodily injvry. It appears by the evidence that Deal was firemen who lost their lives by the late calamity in Broad- way. The meeting was called to order by Alfred Carson, Chief Engineer, There were about a hundred forewen present, besides'a large number of engineers, firemen, and others. A committeo, consisting. of the following foremen, was appointed to prepare resolutions expres- sive of the feelings of the department in relation to the sad loss of life caused by the late disastrous fire:— J. 8, Belcher, rant Company No. 2. J. F. Wa siees Kose Company Ho. Julian Botts, Engine Company No. 38. N. L. Farnham, Hook and Ladder Company No. 1. W. A. Woodhull, Hose Company No, 36. W. C. Lyons, Engine Compony 0. 5. yi Fg cee ‘Hose Ray al iy nat TA: Cragiet, Beard of Engineers. Alfred Carson, Chief Engineer. ‘The committee retired, and the meeting was addressed ‘by Mr. J. N. Guwm, foreman of the Coroner's Jury, in | relation to the investigation of all the buildings in the city. He said that it was the desire of the jury, of which | tie wae foreman, to have'the matter fully investigated, | and without some definite information it was impossible | to do this with justice to the public. He suggested that ‘the foremen and engineers should examine all the buildings in the vicinity of their respective engine houses, and re- | port their condition.to the Coroner's Jury. If the Fire ‘Ws had done their duty in this respect, he believed _ thé secident would not have happened. There were hun- dreds of buildings in a similar condition, and it waa de- sirable to have themt reported as soon as possible, h jealous of his wife, and some three months ago he left taking with him a book on the Bowery Saving’s Pank, in which were $150 to her credit. On searching the person of Deal, when at the station house, the officers found the discharged pistol, and another one loaded; also some powder and shot. ‘The e prisoner was taken before Justice Stuart, who committed him to prison for trial. Charge Against Mr. Chapman Dismissed.—The charge of emberslerent pending against Parl Chapman on the complaint of Samuel Ford, was yesterday disminsed by Justice Stuart, on the ground that not aufflelent proof had been produced to sustain the charge. Oity In GYwxasnic Exmmmon.—The sixth annual exhibition of the pupils of Ott "8 frre im was giyen on Taes- day evening; a fall and fashionable audience was in at. ndance, and the ~~ of female beauty wag brilliant inthe extreme. A short address was delivered by Mr. S. Wallace Cone, on the history and benefits of Tg introduction. “Mr. John Wood, the direc- , tics, by way of tor! Meanrs. Rate A small sailboat, with two men on board, is said to have been capsized in the East river, opposite Grand street. No reliable information could be obtained. The ship Britton, lying at pier No. 6, North river, was turned on her beam ends and somewhat damaged. A lighter, loaded with railroad iron, was unloading at the Paterson Railroad pier, at 5 o'clock yesterday after- noon, when she capsized, in consequence of the loading other. As she careened, some of the iron slipped over- board, carrying one of the handsalong. He was drowned, and his body had not been recovered at # late hour Inst nto the disasters and loss of life recorded above, no doubt there are others whieh we will hear from, having taken place beyond the city. A SLOOP RUN INTO BY A STEAMTUG. Yesterday afternoon, during the prevalence of the storm, the sloop Oregon, of Middletown Point, Connec- pier No. 44 East river, was run into by the steamtug Le- viathan with euch force as to split her stem, carry away her bowsprit and cut loose her fastenings. The Captain and crew were below, but succeeded in getting on the pier. The two vessels drifted out in the stream together, when the mast was blown down by a aquall of wind. The Leviathan, which was also much damaged by the collision, succeeded in crossing the river, and the sloop was detached and made fast to the dock’ at the foot of South Sixth street, in Wilamsburg. She had on board about 3,000 bushels of comm for Fountain, Hermer & Co. The vessel had filled with water, and is total wreck Loss about $7,000, on the vessel and cargo. THE STORM IN BROOKLYN. During the thunder storm the lighter Ohio, whil capsized, and the captain was drowned. The hands on board, three in number, saved themselves.

JERSEY CITY. The large new Custom House on the Cunard dock was entirely unroofed by the whirlwind. The building is of brick, about one hundred feet by forty-five in extent, three storiés high, and substantially built. The roof was all taken off—tin, boards and a port of the rafters. It was torn, rolled up, and ‘) sown over the side of the building, leaving the goods inr'ic exposed to the storm, The damage to the building will be about $600, The unfinished machine shop of the New York and Erie Railroad, three miles from the Jersey City ferry, at what is called the Paterson depot, was destroyed by the le. me long shed on the premises of the Adirondack Steel Works was blown into the Morris canal near by. ‘The tall chimney, about seventy feet high, of the Mal- Jeable Iron Works, near the Market street depot, Newark, ‘was blown down. : ‘Trees and telegraph poles were prostrated.

This news, which was officially announeed inthe Prussian’ Chambers, and im- mediately telegraphed to London and Pafié, caused an im- ‘mediate ride id the funds. Its importance’ must not be overrated,” Themosteganguine talk calready of an active co-operation of the two great German’ Powers against Russia. In this T do. not, ugMeve. It shows, however, that the same opinion prey! tween the Four Powers relative tothe Eastern question, or at least that they ‘think it advisable to say so. Prussia and Austria thus Acelare that in the war which has commenced justice and right are with Turkey and her allies. We muat wait till we see the text of this new protocol before we hazard too | decided an opinion. Almost. at the seme moment we learn that a separate treaty, offensive and defensive, has been signed between Austrio and Prussia; and this is immediately followed by the annanncement that, “with the consent of the Porte,” a large Austrian army has actually entered Servia, while we are also informed that the Russians have en- tered that.country at Radujewacz, between Widdi Orrova. Will the Austrians attemptto drive out the Rusaians? If they do not, it ix quite clear their object in entering is not to cooperate with Turkey. ‘The news from. the seat of war om the Danube, re- ccived from Vienna, is 60 contradictory that the only con that con be credited axe {hone ‘sent by the c: English journels at Constantinople and ¢elewhere. I cannot better exemplify this than by adding on the subjoined telegraphic despatches, simply pointing out which I believe are correet:— Viexna, Saturday, April 8, 1864.
