Fartber and bighly gratifying news concerniag the sufferers in the Arctic bas reached us from Qae- eo, at w ish po:t Captain Luce and nine others anived yesterday morning, having been picked uy floating on fragments of the wreck by the ship Cam: beia. Capt. Luce’s account of the disaster, tele- graphed to this city, is a clear and concise narra tive of events as they transpired from the moment of the collision till he rafely landed, related with an @arpestners and pathos that thril!s every dbro of the reaéer’s irame. The mental agony and suffering a t. Lace has experienced no one can know, but ‘very obe can appreciate his manly courage aac heroic fortitude under circumstances weil calculated to a; pel the one and exhaust the other. In addition to the statement referred to above, we publish inte Feasting accounts of the catas‘ropie by Mr. Degnor, engineer, Mr. Mitchell, and M. Dupasseur, to whicn ‘we refer our readers.

The news which we publish eleewhere with reference to the safety ot Captain Luce, and @ few of the minsing passengers and crew of the Arctic, will be read with intens? satisfaction, We ‘ervently trust that it may be regarded as an omen of the safety of «thers whos» friends are now deploringstheir loes. Ind-ed, as the means which saved Captain Luce and his com- ponions were open to all, wedo not think it over sanguine to loek forward hopefally to far- ther tidings of equally joyous import. Be- sides the three boats, not yet heard from, other rafis were doubtless constructed, and the chances are strong that those who clang to them for support in the last hour may have been picked up by passing vessels. Sime of them may have been taken to Earope; and much time may yet elapse before their safety can be heard of “n this eide the water. To all therefore we would say: Patience and hope! The more we learn of the circumstances of the disaster, and the more closely the various accounts are canvassed, the clearer does it ap- pear that no language can be too strong to rep- robate the conduct of the crew of the lost steamer. There cannot now be any reason- able doubt thut, had the seamen of the Arctc done their duty, all the passeogers might have been saved. Details which Captain Luce has supplied complete the pieture of the scene from noon to tive of the afternoon on ths 27th: we know encugh to be safe in calling on the community to give some practical effect to the indignation every warm- hearted mxn must feel at the wholesale cow- ardice and cruelty of the erew of she United States mail steamer Arctic. We should be the Jast to presa for a verdict if there wis any chance of fresh evidence giving anew aspect to the affair: but we are convinced—and nothing can now alter that convictioa—ithat the first act of the sailors and firemen when the danger was discovered, was to secure their own safety by seizing the boats—that they exerted their superior strength to prevent Ube passengers from availing themselves of the same resource-—that toey pushed off from the ship, without one woman or child, leaviag all on board to perish. For this condact it is no exouse to urge, in the cowardly language of one of the survivors, that their life was as dear to themselves as that of others; for, in the first place, the period of time which elapsed be tween their departuie and the loss of the ship was amply rufficient to provide rafts which would have afforded a reasonable chance of es cape to all; and, secondly, no sailor has a right to prefer his own safety to that of those entrusted to his charge. He is bound to pro tectevery one on board his ship, even at his own risk; and when womea and childrea are endangered, he must be something leas than a man to fail in so sacred a duty. There sentiments are not ours alone. They are those of this whole commupity, and are re echoed througbout the land. We say fearless- ly that had Captain Luce blowa out the brains of the first men who tried to save them selves, leaving our dear fellow-citizens to drown with the wreck, the whole world would have applanded the act. It is dreadful to think that a single revolver in the hands of a maa of nerve might bave preserved to us Mrs. Collins, Ei- ward Sundford, and so many others whose loss the whole country still deplores: and this at an expense which nobody would regret. The past, however, cannot be remedied. The Present is ours: how can we use it? A large number of our fellow-citizens desire that inquiry should be made whether these cowardly sailors and firemen cau- not in some way be brought to justice for deserting their sbip, and thus causlog the joss of so maoy lives. If the Attoruey General or District Attorney could contrive to briag the law to bear, it would rake his fortune. It it cannot be done, we must have a law for such cases in future. In England, whenever an acci- dent of this nature occurs, an investigation takes place instantiy before commissioners, ac which the crown officers are: bound to assis’. ‘Thus, in cases of railway accidents, colliery ac- cidents, stiipwrecks or the like, the truth is al- ways elicited, and the guilty or negligent punished. Such a system would do a world of good here, It would be worth a emall fortaoe vo hear some of the sailors of the Arctic cross- examined by O’Conor or Hoffman. It is clear that from the moment the accident was discovered, there was a total lack of disci- pline in the ship. We are better able to judge of the cause of ‘his untoward state of things by Captain Luce’s thriliing statement. The law, as we understand it, is quite sufficient to enable a man ofjudgment and energy to avert so fatal au accident. A captain is fully authorized to sboot an insubordinate sailor: nay more, when the lives of his passengers are at stake he is bound to protect them at whatever cost to such of his crew as oppose or tail t» execute his or- ders. Th’s, we take it, is quite adequate for any emergency. A captain only needs to have his plans prepared beforchand—as every captain should—to act promptly and with determina tion, to secure under any circumstances the obedience of nis crew. News from Mexico While it is oar duty to spread before our readers whatever news may be received from Mexico, still we must throw out the caution that information from that country must geaerally be taken with much distrust and suspicion. The government of Santa Ansa has always considered the circulation of false intelligence to cover disaster, as one of the legitimate ele- ments of public policy, and certainly of late they have worked thisengine with a powerfal head of steam, We have been positively as- sured that Alvarez, the chief of the revolution, bas been dead twice at least; then he was as often tick, even unto death; then again he has been routed, defeated, and his troops dispersed, innumerable times: Santa Anna, again, has al- ways been victorious, his government strength- ened, and the peuple happy and contented. The revolution bas over and over again been ended, and the rebellious generals as often mortally wounded. The fabrication of this kind of nows is carried on extensively in the city of Mexico, and is seems brancbes for this work are established in Wa-bington and this city. From New Orleaas neither the public press nor our regular tele graphic correspondent confirms these marvelous sccounts, for in all probability they do fot be ieve them. On the contrary, from Acapulco our latest information represents Alvarez a having been successfal, and Sante Anna’s troops retiring for the defence of the capital. New revolutions are springing up in all directions, in order to oistract the attention and troops ot he government, wh le the seven million of the treaty swindle bas crumbled away under bad management and expensive military marches, bia ogeats now n W.shington, | egging for the three m-ilions stil! owiog under the treaty, which are to be ,aid on completion of the ounds»y rurvey, but which Sonta Anna wants at this time.
