The thrilling narratives of eyewitnesses and sufferers by the appalling calamity which befel that noble ves- sel have a peculiar interest at the present moment. Hopes are now entertained that the gallant Herndon has been picked up by some vessel, as he was seen afloat after the engulfing of the steamer. The num- ber om {board the Central America at the time of the catastrophe was 592, of which 178 have been saved—leaving 419 yet to be accounted for. We give the statements of Mr. Basford, Mra.

We also give a list of vessels damaged by the late gale as far as have been atcertained. Further details of Furopean news, by the Indian at Quebec, are given elsewhere. Money was in ac- tive demand in London. Consols closed at 90) for money and account. The Liverpool cotton market is reported buoyant, but newspaper qnotations were geverally unchanged. Richardson, Spence & Co., however, quote a slight advance on current qualities of American. Flour was firm at an advance of one shilling for the better qualities. Trade was improv- ing in Paris and corn was declining. The sales of church property in Mexico and the suppression of convents will, it is said, be recognized by the Pope. Mr. Wright, our Minister to Berlin, had presented his credentials to the king at a private audience. Onur correspondent, writing on the 15th inst. from Havaua, furnishes a detailed account of the circum- stances attending the barbarous pirate murders on board the Albion Cooper, as related by the witness Thomas Fay, and confessed to by the negro and Bel gian assassins. The conduct of the boy Fay is worthy of all praise. The slave trade was very rife, and the dealers most audacious in their deflance of the laws. A good many wooden honses bad been destroyed by fire. The yellow fever continued to make sad ra. | vages among the soldiers and sailors. Sugars ruled | very high. Exchenge was dull. By way of Havana we have later news from Porto Rico. Holders of sugars were very firm in demands to which buyers could not yield, and the market was consequently inactive. From Central America we have news dated at Punta Arenas on the 9th of August. President Mora, of Costa Rica, had published his death penalty proclamation against Walker and any new filibus- ters. A grand Spanish American Congress was to meet at San Jose. The Costa Rican government bad decreed to the Electric Telegraph Society of Paris, the right to establish a line of telegraph run- ning from north to south through the republic, under certain conditions, From New Granada we have news dated at Panama on 3d of September. Commodore Paulding, of the United States navy, accompanied by a corps of scientific men, bad passed from Aspinwall to Panama, with the purpose of testing how far it would be practicable to make a ship canal there. ‘The mission excited great interest, and was highly pleasing in its resulta. The negotiations in Washing- ton relative to the Isthmus difficulty were regarded with much attention. Robberies were very frequent at Panama. We have news from the South Pacific dated at Valparaiso on Slst of Jaly, and at Callao on 12th of Angust, The sum of $395,896 had been shipped for England. In Chile the Amnesty bill was finally paered, but produced a good deal of political agita- tion. The Cabinet bad resigned. A strong party was organized against the existing government. A lighthonse tax on all veesels entering the ports of Chile bad been decreed. From Peru we learn that Hon. Mr. Sullivan, British Minister at Lima, was shot with a blunderbuss, in a house near the theatre, on the 11th of Angust. The assassin was an un- known man, who evidently acted through revenge. A Frenchman and a negro bad been arrested as his acecmplices. Some American sailors had been arrested from the ships John Millon and Morning Glory, by Peruvian troops. Another revolution had been attempted in Callao, but was suppressed. The Vivanco revolution continued. President Castilla was near Arequipa, with the army. Bolivia and E: uador were quiet. We have advices from the Sandwich Islands dated at Hon slula on 9th of July. The cane crop will be abundant. The coffee crop bad been attacked by blight, which threatened to reduce the yield one- third. The Fourth of July was observed as a gone- al holiday in Honoluln. No other news of interest. Our correspondent at Bridgetown, Barbadoes: writing under date of September 1, says:—‘The weather continues moat favorable for the growing crops, and the sugar cane never looked so well at this season, which leaves no doubt of plenty of syrap being obtained before Christmas next. Rain has fallen abundently, affording an abundance of water all through the island. The island is healthy, but bosinees is dull, and but few arrivals within the last week. The licensed bonded warehouse system is undergoing revision, and the contemplated future charges will not exceed half the present rates. Sugar, molasees and exchanges aro unchanged. The Go vernors of the British West India Islands (it is ra mored, and is based upon reliable authority) have signified to the British government their intention of applying 10,000 troops for India if required: and remark in their ,despatehes that these troops ave better edapted for East India warfare than Eu- | them. We havea number of other statements ropean eo!diera.”” Tostructions were sent on Saturday from the State Department to all the government officers on the southern seaboard to stop all expeditions leaving the United States with hostile intentions against any country with which we are at peace. The report implicating Gen. Houston was not credited at Wash- ington. The board appointed to examine the plans ard medels for a new sloop of war, to be built by contract, will report to the Secretary of the Navy to-day. Commander Goldsborough has been ordered to relieve Commodore Stringham in Naval Court No.3. The Postmaster General requests persons writing to France to bear in mind that all letters are rated unpaid on which the postage is not paid in full. The Indian Bureau had received intelligence that Governor Cummings was to have left Fort Leavenworth for Utah on the 16th instant, with six companies of dragoons. Last evening a large audience was congregated in Dr. Phillips’ church, Fifth avenue, for the specia! purpose of considering the distressing calamities which have befallen the Presbyterian Missions in Upper India. Rev. Dra. Spring and Potts delivered appropriate prayers, and the Rev. Mr. Thompson -read interesting extracts from the diary of the wife «f the Rev. Mr. Freeman, of India. A fire occurred yesterday morning iu the fancy dry goods store, No. 617 Sixth avenue, which, how- ever, did but little damage, being soon extinguished, Mr, Brodley, the occupant of the store, was arrested by the police ona charge of arson; but after an investigation of the matter was discharged by Jus" tice Flandreau. The topsail schooner Albion, of and from Calais, Maine, loaded with lumber, and bound for Philadel- pia, went ashore on the point of Sandy Hook, at 8 o'clock on Satarday night, and will be a total loss. Her crew were all saved. No insurance on veasel or cargo. The import@of foreign goods at the port of Bos- top, for the week ending the 18th inst., amounted to $984,816—for the corresponding week in 18656, $774,469. Increase in 1867, $210,347. The princi- pal articles of import were dry goods, $210,720, linseed, 110,702, iron and steel, $73,062. No sales of printing cloths were made at Provi- dence last week. Cotton was unchanged in price, and the demand light. The wool market was inac tive, owing to the stringency in money matters. Sales of the week 45,700 Ibe. The sales of cotton wore conflued to about 100 a 250 bales at unchanged prices. The stook in this market has now become #0 much reduced that the daily sales are not likely to exceed a few hundred bales until there is some augmentation in supplies from ihe new crop, which this year is upusually backward. Hence the small (ransactions making from day to day afford no very clear idea cf the real state of the market. Flour continued steady and in fair demant, without important change in prices. Prime to choloo l.ts of wheat, in abipping order, ‘were soarce and in good demand, while inferior grades were heavy and neglected. Corn sold to « limited ex- tent at 80c, a 80}¢0. for Western mixed. Pork was dull nd lower, with sales of mess at $35 26.2 $25 50, closing dull at the inside figure, and at $20.8 $20 60 for prime. ‘The inclemency of the weather restricted sales of sugars, ‘Tho transactions embraced about 300 bhds English islands, {m bond, for export, om private terms, and 190 hhds. Cuba at prices given in another column. Coffee was quict. Freight engegemenis were light, and rates to Liverpool for grain rather eatier. Cheese was taken at 252. and Sea Island cotton at 5-1¢d., and equare bales at 5-324. ‘The Late Appalling Disaster at Sea—Vhe Facts as they Reach Us. Our columns to day are almost exclusively en- grorsed with the details connected with the late terrible calamity—the loss of the Central Ame- rica. In addition to the particulars published in our Sunday edition, we give such further infor- mation as reached us in the course of yesterday. These will all be read with avidity, for the cir- cumstances attending the loss of this splendid vessel are of eo unusual and apparently causeless a character, that until they are fully investigated public curiosity will continue on the stretch. Thus far all concurrent accounts saddle the blame of this disaster on the chief engineer. Nothing is more certain than that a steamer, if at all seawortby, and if her engiues can be kept going, can be beld in such a position—bead to sea, a8 it is callcd—as will enable her to ride out safely a storm of almost any degree of violence. As long as the sea breaks over her bows there is bot little danger of ber timbers yielding to the strain. It is only when all control over her is lost, by the stoppsge of the engines, and she re- ceives on her side the full force of the wavea, that the straining of her timbers really com- mences, and that she is in danger of springing aleak. Had the engines of the Central America been kept in going order throvgh the gale, there is bat little doubt that the noble vessel and her precious freight of lives would have been brought eafely to port. It is an sgonizing reflection for the friends of those who have perished, that neglect of duty on the part of single individual shouid bave interfered to prevent this result. From the statement of Captain Badger—one of the rescued passengers of the steamer—it appears that the stoppage of the engines wee caused, not by any unforscen casualty, but by the grossest and most unpardon. able carelereness. He says that the fire and engine department neglected to pass coal from the bunkers to the fire room fast enough to keep up the fires, and to that circametance is to be attributed the stoppage of the engines, which the firemen were never afterwards able to set going, There can be no question upon whom the re- sponsibility of this fact rests. In all emergen. cles euch as that which befel this vessel, it is the duty of the chief engineer to see that all the bands in bie department are at their posta. He must have been well aware of any relaxation of activity on their part; and whether his inattention to the fact arose from panic or indifference, he is equally culpable. When the statement was telegraphed on here that the chief engineer had deserted the ship, we had 4 suspicion that he was in some way to blame for the disaster. Captain Badger’s narrative leaves no further doubt upon that point. The manner of the engineer's escape from the vessel, In the same boat with the women, is so indicative of his character that we think it useless to waste terms of indignation and scorn on euch a person. Cap- tain McGowan fully expresred the sense enter- tained by the public of his conduct, whan, in taking on board the Empire City the ladies and children reecued by the brig Marine, he refused to reocive on his vessel a man who had acted in such @ cowardly manner, The Empire City brought on yesterday to this port ninety-two out of the one hundred and for- ty-nine surviving passengers already enumerated. The others have gone overland to their homes from Norfolk. From the information derived from these persons, who all concur in stating that there were no other veasels in sight than thoee mentioned when the steamer went down, It is fairly to be presumed that this list in- cludes all who were saved. Still, jadging from past experience, aa in the case of the Arctic and other wrecks, there is a possibility that more of the passengers may have been picked up by ves sels parsing near the acene of the disaster. In addition to the accounts already published, we give to day such further statements from the rescned passengers as serve to show the extent of the calamity and of the sufferings endured by before us, but they are nearly a recapitalatioa of the same facts, and would add nothing to the im- formation of which we are already in possession. We also publish as correct a list as can be made out of all those who have been lost and saved. The former list is not, of course, reliablo; and we shall probably have no correct state ment on the subject until the return of the Phila delphia to New Orleans from Aspinwall, where ¢ duplicate list of the passengers is kept, Me Roberts has written on for this list, but it will ty at least a fortnight betore itcan reach ua Db addition to these interesting details, we publish | statement, as far as known, of all the vessels thd have been injured by the gale in which the Cex tral America went down. Up to this time w have reports of upwards of forty-eight which have bea lost or more or less damaged by it, and we fear th this is not the full extent of the number. in rat ning the eye over this list one is struck by tt amount of damage done ia the small area covert by the gale. Nothing ever more fully illustrat its rotary character, as described by Colonel Gre There is one point connected with the loss the Central America which cannot fail to eli indigrant comment. According to Mr. Chiu statement, towards evening, and shortly bef the Central America sank, a rail bore down reeponee to their signal, aud after speaking wi Captain Herndon, ard promising to seud a bo again cheered off and was seen no more, It id be hoped that the master of this vessel was 1 guilty of the barbarous act of inhumanity rela! by Mr. Childs, but in any view of the case we not think that he exhibited much disoreti under the circumstances. We have the stateme however, of Mr. Frazer that he saw the schooi the morning after the Central America went dot and he thinks that she must have picked up so of the unfortunate passengers. We have nov clear comprehension of the technical indicaté which constitute, in a seaman’s mind, the cessity for hastening to the aid of a vea To an uninitiated landsman the fact of a steau laboring heavily in a gale without the aid of | steam would bave appeared a sufficieat evider of distress. Weare afraid that the reason signed is more an excuse to cover an aversion run risks than a legitimste justification. Ino humble opinion eea captains should, on all o0¢ tions where the circumstances admit of di heave to, and satisfy themselves that ven situated are in no positive danger. They h euflicient encouragement for apy extra troubley, tisk in the generally expressed approbation of owners in such cases, and the substantial reway which are conferred upon men who render! portant services of this kind at sea. We hy only to refer tothe cases of the three captains 4 reecued the passengers of the San Francisco, to th of the Nova Scotia captain who rescued the of the Caleb Grimshaw, and to that of Captsh Nye, who laid off the English coast for a wield night, at great personal risk, to perform a timilar act of humanity, in order to show bw the public appreciate and reward such condot Even in the preeent calamity we have an exauple of similar disinterestedness in the case of a (is abled brig, the Marine, which lay to all nijht and caved about @ hundred of the passengs, whilst the schooner which was in a position to render assistance is reported to have proceeled indifferently on her way. As we all have an interest, more or leas dint, in the performance of these acta of bumanity, it is to be hoped that the conduct of the masters of the three veseels—the Marine, Saxony and Eliaa— who were the means of saving so many of the crew and paesengers of the ill-fated Central America, will meet with itedue reward. Public testimonials should be offered to these men for the manner in which they have distinguished themselves. ‘The satisfaction of one’s own 30n- science is, to right thinking people, undoubtedly a enfficient compensation; bnt, aa general penci- ple, we have great faith in the advantage of stimulating philanthropy by more substantial re- wards.
