A great portion of the luggage and cargo is inevitably’ Jost. ‘The passengers are all saved. ‘The affair is looked upoa as the result of sad misman- agement, and there is undoubtedly much to censure. There are two hundred passengers, nearly one hundred ‘women, and about thirty infants in arms, ‘The disaster calls for serious investigation. A great many are left destitute. ‘The crew and officers behaved well. Aid from 8t. Johns was fortanately very prompt. Four lunatic women were put on board in New York, about whom no one knew anything.

She arrived here from Galway, via St. Johns, N. F., on Monday, the 13th inst. She was sold to the Atlantic Steam Navigation Company for « very high figure, She was four years old, ranked A 1 at Lioyd’s, and was one of the strongest prop-llers afloat. She was an iron bark rigged steamer of 2,240 tons register, and 3,200 tong borthen. She was divided into five water tight compart- ments by four bulkheads, and she was well pro- vided against fire or any other accident. Her length over all was 280 feet, her breadth of beam 87 feet, and her depth of hold 85 feet. Her ma- chicery was massive, and was 440 horse power. She had tree decks, and was permitted by the British regulations to carry 1,045 passengers, Of these her first cabin had accommodation for 120, and the second cabin 100. Het satoon was large and well furnished, and provided with tables at which 150 persons could conveniently dine, The entire vessel was well ventilated, and there was good. light on each of her decks. She was well finished in every part,and her masts were coppered one-third of their length from the deck. It is said that on her way out she passed. ‘through considerable maszes of ice, and rode over some fit, She experienced head winds and fogs since she left Galway on her last trip; nevertheless she made St. Johns on the eighth day and New York on the thirteenth, exclusive of the day she was detained at St. Johns. ANOTHER ACCOUNT OF THE WRECK. Information has been received here that the Argo, which left this port on the 234 inst, , for Galway via St. Johns, N. F., has been wrecked. We havenct heard the location of the calamity, but understand it to be somewhere on the Newfoundland coast—probably near Cape Race. The ship went ashore, and at last account was leaking very badly, and was likely to prove a tote; lose. The passengers and crew and their baggage werg landed safely. Two steamtugs have been aunt tothe ag sistance of the Argo. Particulars wil doubtless soon come to hand, i P. 8.—Since the above was written, we learn that the Argo was lost in Trepassy Bay.
