From bua we have a full and com- plese narrative of the terrible occurence, which is one of the most remarkable cases of stapwreck on record. The schooner salied from Boston on the 2/.n of February, 186s, on a general whating voyage in the Atlantic Ocean, was a FEARFUL STOR OF PWRECK, } rished, and as the boat came up they slid into it lessly and were taken to the Flatworth, where every attention was paid them by the kind-hearted Engiisaman im command. When taken off two of the sailors were entirely naked, as they had been during the whole week, ‘The sun had biistered vem, as it had the captain and the others. Ail were the merest skeletons, Captain Rounseville, who Weighed before te wreck 190 pounds, had lost nearly ninety pounds m his elght days of suffer. ing. A teaspoonful of brandy waa given each one to aiart with, but even this was too much for their shattered systems, and very soon after reach- ing the ship al) Were unconscious, and remained in That state for two days.

Captain Rounseville is still sudering from the effects of is terrible experiences, and } oth men- tally and physically is greatly prostrated , He says he did not expect to live when te * waves tirst washed him overboard, He could no ¢swim, and made no effort to save himself further? man te caich hold of the rigging as he was washe ,@ against it. All the good swimmers on the ~ yessel were lost. He says if he could hav g reached wie cabin, where mis wife and children were, he would giadly have dierg—witn them, for he feels that though he has sav 34 his own life he has lost all that made life dear to him, He is a man about forty years of age, of ple? ging manners, and talks freely, though of course sadly, of the occur- rence which bas been such (4 heavy weight upon him. In his debp afliction he will ‘have the sym- pathy of all readers. The young man les, of Harford, one of the lost, wat swell known here. At one time he was a caprier’ for the Courant, Tis parents live on Park Strect, and it was not until Saturday that they were advised of his death, though they had heard of ‘jhe Joss of the vessel, original © ourse have been taken the struggling ves- sel might have rode out the storm in safely, bat the Jatal tutr , of the wheel bad Jost contro of every- thing 8 dit was now life or death—an ea: sirugg'€ to save in the face Of overwhelming wisad- vantage 4g, Capt in the Dpou woul po f jong hey not the as THE CAPTAIN'S BEFORTS. sin Rounseville had left his wife and ohitdren cabin when first his services were required deck, but be had no fear then that the vessel i bo wrecked, He realized the severity of the itorm, but bad confidence in his veesel, and so as she was kept steady with the wind be appre- ded no danger. The “broaching ‘to? wi looked for; it came suddenly, and then was desperate work to ao, Just soon as this took place the «gh sea br iried the vessel's rail some two or three, feet W oder water, Captain Kounseville smimediately ® sized an axe and went Jorward to cut away the 3 oremast, tn order that the vessel might right up. / Alter cutting the rigging all clear be found the Mast would not fail and commenced cutting that, but had net given more than two or three blows belore the scbooner begau to go over gradnaily, and i Lait a minute, at the longest, the masts were lying upon the water, the veasel was clear over. At this time the wind was blowing like a hurricane and roared like bh sea Was chopping ugly an All quarters, ‘The going over and ail was so quickly dione that the captain could not change nis position to get aft where his wife and children and most of his crew were; for, as soon as the masts toucied the Water, the yessel settied down bodiiy, aud he was Washed away from the foremast, Alter being in the re eavy thunder.

While mere he secured hhnself with a rope, and the first mate did the same. TWENTY FEET UNDER WATER. Here were twenty or more men tn ther Jnst 98 the captain and mate bad got secured a very heavy sea swept over the ill-iated schooner and buried the mast fifteen or twenty feet under water. Captain Rounsevilie says that he thinks he was under water at least a minute; he came up etrangied and gasping, and when ne cowd look about him he found shat all were gone except himself and the mate. Another furious sea swept over aud broke thew fastenings, and both went under water. The captain does net know how lon he was buried, but he never expected to rise aga Whough his head strugk against someti Sound he was in the riggug at the end of the mast, and by chuching in between the cross-trees he wecured himself again, Here hesaw the mate trying to get hold of some portion of the-rigging, but he didn’t sneceed, aud the poor fellow dropped away and was never seen again. MORE MEN DISCOVERED. Captain Rounesville also found were one of tlie crew, who had been wasbed away, holding o1 to the rigging, aud an tour later another ian swan ‘wp and got hold of the mast. Whe daylight two men were discovered sitting on Sie vessei's vow. ‘These men had been inthe forecqstle, and when the schooner went over got Out, Bnd as the mast broke secured a place to hold on til) the hull par- tially righted.

Se olten were these seas upon him that three or four times a minute he was under Water and the Waves dashed agatust him with ter- rifleforce.

Richard W. Trundy, assistant superintendent of the works, was called to the stand, and being re- minded by the Coroner of the part of the testimony given on Friday where he left oft, he continued a3 follows:—'The fire was fed from the side under the boler; the fornace is abont seven feet by four and two doors opened into the furnace in coming from the gauges up past the cocks; [ asked Mr. Voorhies if I had not better open them, and he said not to do so until the pressure became greater; the water was dripping from the lead of the bowler in several small streams; we immediately tried to screw the head and partiaily succgeded 11 stopping the water; this water was the product of what had been driven from the wood by the process; there were eight barrels of oil in the tank and 10,000 superiicial feet of lumber; 1t requires about four or #ix hours to treat the wood; when the oil was put mito the tank it did not come within three inches of the angie irons of the boiler {She construction and location of the angie iron gutters was agaln gone over with. 1 think these gutters were fall of oil, which flowed over into the oil in the boller, and immediately the explo- sion occurred; in butiding the machine we puta ce of half oh iron near the end where the fire 8, a8 We Supposed that the extra heat wouid require this, while the iron need not be so thick at the other end, where 1t was three-eighths; the vapors referred to a8 issuing from the valve were only vapors, pro- bably naphtha vapors; I think the dropping of the from the gutters, and their contact with the heated boiler iron, caused all the steam generated at the moment of the explosion; at this ume no safety valve of aby size would have been of use; | think the overflow was due to not turning the cecks; [ suppose the water we saw dripping from tbe boiler must have been condensed from vapor at the top of the boiler: there was no evidence of a@ detective flue; | should have known it if there was; the head con- taining the gauges was carried about ten feet; both heads of the boiler were broken by the exploston; all three of us stood near the centre of the head, but a3 arose from screwing it I stumbled on a board, and as I recovered | was outside of the line; the other two were left by the head; they were found pretty near the head of the oiner tank after the @x- iosion; I was burned on the hands and face; | was in the alr, 1 don’t know how long, but suppose [ must have lain three or four minutes on the ground after I came down; I feel pretty sore now; the coals were not blown out of the furnace; I can’t account for the fames immediately following the explo- sion; 28 soon as I econlda stand I saw a light all around: I have seen several boiler explosions be- Jore, and that had all the appearance of an explo- sion by steam; it was by steam; have never used superiicated steam in treating of those heavy 0118; I don’t know exactly what it is; (In reply to a jury- man) my theory is that the Water from the wood which fell into the gutters flowed over on to the heated tron and formed steam, which caused the explosion. Mr. Trundy, in answer to a question concerning the fluid in the gutters, satd 1t was not oil, as there was not suificient heat on to condense Oli Vapors; it was water from the wood, and not, as understood by several present, naphtha ol; the gas was escaping ‘from the safety valve, probably from the oil; the reported explosion at San Francisco Was not similar to Unis; there are now works in New dersey which have been running every day for over three years; I think if the cocks for the drawing off of the water had been turned there-would have been no plosion; I was entirely under the supervision ot Voorhees, and did as he told me; [don’t bees any Cngineer could have foreseen an accident, Alexander H, Cunningham was next sworn— Restde at 318 Clinton street; am a mechanical and —— engineer; have examined the boiler; [ have he original drawing, furnished by Mr. V.; was called in to assist in iis constraction after it wag commenced (the plang were shown to? the jury); the machine conformed to the original plan with the exception of the heads being cast iron instead of wrought; there was n@ specificauion as to the thick- neas of the iron; L examined the heads several times; tnese were oj cast iron with @ wrought iron sheet in the centre; the cast iron was an inch and five. teenths thick im the extreme, when it joined the wrought ivon; the .wrought iron was about seven- sixteenths; cast iron expands by heat in a greater ratio than wrought trong in equal thicknesses nt iron will stand eight times the pressure that cast iron will. ‘he inquest was further adjourned until Wednes- day next, CONFLAGR A’ WON IN WILLIAMSBURG, aot Lowa Nearly Forty Thousund Dollars, At about half-past six o'clock last evening a fire, bellteved to be tie work of an incendiary, broke out in the carriage factory of Titus & Shepherd, No. 31 Grand street, Williamsburg, and the dames spread with fearful rapidity, The factory was a two story frame building, the first hoor containing several car- riages and the second all the machinery and valu- abie property of the firm.
