Inspection of Her Repairs t ay Oar Mere chunts=What Yankee Engineers Can Accomplish, ec. In compliance with an invitation from Messrs. Howland & Aspinwall, agents of the Great Fastern steamship, 4 select company of geutlemen proceeded, at ten o'clock yesterday morning, in a steamboat specially chartered for the purpose, to inspect tho repairs recently made upon her under the direction of our Yankee engineers and machinists. The day was exceedingly plensant, and the trip was groatly onjoyed by all tho invited. Among the company were the Messrs. Howiana .& Aspinwall Judge Caton, of Iitinojs, Chas. H. Haswell,.Jghn M. Wooks, Eractds W. Smith, Chas. W. Copeland, Captain Waring, Robert Mackey, Lioyd's agent; Wm..H. Burleigh, and soveral other prominent citizens. The steamboat arrived have always Leen op- jat the anchorage of the Great Kastern, off Fort Schuyler, about noon, when the inspection of tha ship and hor re. j Pairs immediately commenced, and was prosecuted in the most searching manner by all who participated. Most of the examiners desconded through the shaft thirty-five fect below the surface of the water into the caisson fitted to the bottom of the ship, and there viewed all the ma chinery by which the repairs wero accomplished, express yg themselves amazed at the simplicity of the contri. vances as well as astonished at the immense character of the injuries. As the exact circumstances and particulars of the dis- astor are net generally koown to the public, a brief re capitulation of the tacts on this occasion will pot be in- appropriate, especially in view of the fact that a great | many false rumors have been circulated in connection with the matter, and many injurions notions have been formed in ccnsequence respecting re seaworthiness of the ship and her ultimate practical utility. We there. fore proceed to give @ short esume of the accident to this splendid vessel off Moutank Point, and also a description of the work and skill used in repsiring her. The Great Fastern was running through Long Island Sound, after a very excellent; mage across the Atlantic, when, ‘carly on the morning of the 27th of August last— three o’clock—she snddoaly struck upon a submerged rock a short distance 7 the northeast of Montaak Point. Sho was puffing along leisurely at the time in the fairway channel for inbound vessels, waiting for a pilot, and, what ia a little extraordinary, after all the soundings made by the officersof the Coast Survey, the rock upon which she tonched is satd not to be down in ony of tho charts prepared for the direction of our pilots. But however this may be, although the fracture occasioned by the accident was of a most formi- | dable character, the venience occasioned to thi passengers is sald to been so slight that the collis- | jon was scarcly perceptible, and did not arouse any of the sleepers from their siumbors.
