By eleven o'clock the passengers wore all on boaré two thousand miles, As soon as we wore fairly in tho Stream the examination of tickets commenced. All the first and second cabin passengers were driven below, and when that was accomplished they were permitted to come Up, One at a time, and display at the door the piece of paper that entitied them to remain on board ship. The exam{- nation of the steerage passengers was a more dificult matter, and was not completed until outside of Sandy ‘Hook and ready to discharge the pilot. Ove female with- out a ticket was discovered, and she, and two other fo- males who bad got on board the wrong vessel, were put into the pilot's skiff and sent on thelr way, but not re- jeicing. Two detectives, who bad @ particular interest in some individual, left at the same time, without fiodimg the object of thelr search. As we moved down the bay three other steamers wore; tn company, outward bound. Twoof them wore large screw sbips—one bound to Liverpool, the other to Ham. burg—and the third was the opposition steamer bound 10 Aspiawall—the Minols, She appeared to be.as. deep and as crowdod with people as we wete. The lattér we passed easily ; but the two former passed us with ease, and were almost hyll doyorgreep. we_cgomped. the <bar. Nothing could be done until after the tickets were examined to- wards putting things to rights. All the baggage was be- low that could be put in the space allotted to it-in the ship’s hold; yet the decks were filled with it. Fortunately, after wo wore fairly at sea, everything promised favora- bly; there was a light breeze off shore, the water smooth, with the exception of a southerly swoll, caused by the gale of the day previous, and the weather looked steady. By this time the passengers were altogether in ax improved condition; the men were ina better humor. Some were so much improve in this way that they bad ‘‘smiled”’ on several occasions ; the women had ropaired damages, childron had found thoir paronts, babies had ceased prying and were being consoled in various ways by their mothers, several firta- tions had commenced and efforts were being made by the crew tocloar the decks up and restore order. So begins the voyage. OUR PASSENGERS, It would have been a dificult task for any one to de- termine from appearances the different classes of passen- gers on board the North Star. They wore divided as fol- lows:—Firat and second cabin and stecrage. Tho first cabin bad stateroom accommodations, the best table and the privilege of the ship; the second cabin were accommodated with open berths, in a place be- low tho first cabin, and took their meals at the second table; and, as the first cabin passengers had the privilege of the ship, the steerage passengers wore stowed forward on shelves, in a place that a dog would recoil from, and bad their meals on deck, on tables suspended from the deck above. The only difference that I could Perceive between the majority of the first, all of the seoond and the steerage passengers was that the two for- mor bad more money than the latter; consequently were able to pay for more comforts and conveniences. So far asthe people themselves were concerned they were about the same. Tn fact, many of those in the steerage appeared to be the superiors in every respect of the greater part who wore entitled to be considered a better class. I do not think there were over thirty-five passengers on board who would bave been considered first class on board « European steamer, I should say Ubat at least half the passeagers were women and obil- ren. Of the latter there were one bundred and four, not counting bables, These, I should think, were too nume- Tous to meation There were many cases in which re- spectable families had purchased steerage tickets, not knowing what the steorage was. Our kind hearted com- mander, whenever he discovered a case of this kind, in- variably allowed the female portion to remain aft, where they would be removed from scenes and language worthy of the Five Points when that locality was in its glory. We bad om board a gentleman whom I termed the “Good Samaritan.” He ts well known in Califor. Bia and clsewhere as a man of the greatest energy ‘and perseverance, and at the same time goncrous to a fault, He looked up all cages of suffering or privation on board, and if money, or kind words, or a few delicacies, were needed, thoy were sure to be had. His gray eye twinkied with pleasure whenevor he was able to do a kind act or relieved @ want, and # pleasant smile and word were the reply§to every question. I will not men- tion bis name. My description of him is sufficient; it will enable his friends to recognize him, and they may tell others who he is. I can only say good luck to him ‘through life; for he richly deserves it. Wehad macy families on board going to California for the first tim and some returning after a short absence. There wei male and female adventurers, farmers, merchants, off- cors, laborors, mechanics, loafers, thieves and Pickpockets on board, and some of the latter did mot walt until their arrival in Califor. nia to ply their avocation; for quite number of Dersons were relieved of their loose change and some of ali thoy possessed before we reached Aspinwall. It soon became evident that many more passengers were on board than the ship could accommodate. 1 am confident that over three hundred were witbout berths, or any ac- commodation whatever excepting the privilege of stand- jag or lyiog upon deck. These paid the same passage money, however, as the rest. Among them were women and children of tender age, who were to be exposed to wind and weathor and all the uncertainties of a sea voy- ago There wore lone women io the same predicament— respectable women at that—whose position, without any Protectors, was deplorable indeed. Such were our pas- sengers, CONDITION OF TAR emir. Tnow come to the most important part of my narra live—that which I desire the pubiic to read carefully, in order that our people may know apd understand all that a California traveller hag to encounter, and the davger be - iain, frequently without kaowing it, Laws have beco enacted by Cuogress which regulate the number of pas- ‘songers to bo carried om board abip, and also in regard to ‘boats and other appliisnces for saving life in case of acct- dent. Yot in the majority of cages they are violated in tbe most outrageous manner. There are, I believe, in- spevtora appointed whose duty it is to see that the num- ber of prasengers on board a vessel going to sea te not tn oxcess of what the taw allows; also to find out that boats ‘enough of the proper character are on board and in proper condition to embark every soul, crew as well as passengers, that may be oa board » seagoing vessel. From my ex- Perience on board the North Star; | am led to believe that the lew is pever thought of im ber case, and that an in- ‘spector has never examined the vessel, unless to make an \mproper and untrue report. The number of passengers ‘on board the North Star on her trip from New York of October 3 is reported to have been nine hundred and twenty-five. This does not include young*babies, who are couridered on the passenger list. Add to tbis the officers and crew, and the acknowledged number of souls oa board will be about one thousand and dfy, T am inclined to think, however, that twelve dred ie nearer the truth.

Fire owt of the seven were turned bottom up om deck, and were secured there by stout lashings and iron braces, two of the largest forward having boggage piled upon hem, which should have been in ‘he ship's holt, Tho remaining two boats wore hanging at their davite outboard, the largest one having boon #wung out on the paneage, In order (bat the passengers could nave more room on vicck.
