The following particulars wet fotnltbed by
Mr Jame Stetenn, the aeeond Cantam f te
etetmer, published in an ertrt Hertld :
Tat Atlantic left Allyn' Point thont htlfpatt
1 1 Wcdaeaday night, with an unatually emarl
number of passengers, ns inhering with the crew,
rvant and Sic era of the tteamer, in alt trader
n "hundred perron. Sht got well ander way,
and whit going finely, th steaea f wooing
i)to th (team chimney bunt, rendering th en
gine entirely uteless. At about th same time
tbe wind chopped round suddenly from th N. .
to th N. W. and blew a hurricane.
' The anchor were immediately hove over, at
which the t earner rode through that night, which
wat very dark and itermy.
At 'daylight h ws abreast of tht New Lon
don light, drifting all the way toward tht abort.
The (team pipe war firit cut away, aext th
pilot-house, and then the buHc-heads, to a to
give th wind a clear sweep through th vessel,
and render lew surface to its attack.
The colors were hoisted balfanatt, bat on th
Mohegan'a attempting soma measures to go to
her assistance, were hauled down by order of
Cnpt. Dustan, who knew that her efforts would
t4 Ineffectual. Thus the steamer remained all
lay, till towards five in the afternoon of Thurs
day, the wind lulled, and hopes weie raised that
all danger was over ; but not long after the wind
hifted two points, and blew with mora than
previous violence.
Th Atlantic gradually drifted nearer and
narer to the shore all Thursday night, and for
t vo hours, from 2 till 4 o'clock on Friday morn
ing, lay within a cable's length of th breakers
held by two anchor. At about half past four
tbe stern touched, and both cable instantaneously
parted, and sbe broached to, lying broadiid to
th sbore, in a heavy surf.
The coast was bold and rrfcky inside of a raey
reef; had she broached to the other way, to that
ber bow would have reached th breakers, per
baps not a life would have been saved. Tbe
vessel went to piece immediately j within five
minutes of her striking, nothing was left of her
entire but her engines. The freight bad mostly
been thrown overboard some time previous.
Capt. Dustan was last seen by our informant
when the latter recieved order from him to go
forward, and at the proper moment let go tbt
chains. At the time tbe Captain stood upon the
after promenade dock, giving his orders as calm
ly, and with as little apparent emotion as if upon
hore. All bis efforts seemed to be for the pre
servation of his passengers his own fate was
joined with that of the vessel h commanded.
Mr. Stetson went forward with Mr. Kingston
firt mate, Mr. Boyle, the clerk, and Cba. Chris
tian, deck hsnd : the latter was lashed to a long
rnpe, and lowered, so that a communication
could be bad with tbe shores; but the violence
of th waves tor him from th line, and he him
self was saved with great difficulty. Th others
mentioned were, when she struck, washed over
board, and all reached tbe land in safety.
It is impossible to arrive at a full list as yet,
of the pastengert saved and lost. Ther were
in all on board, about 70 persons, of whom 30
were passengers from Boston. W giv below
the names as far as heard from,
Mr. Stetson, who, from all accounts, acted
like a man from the beginning to th end of th
trying te;i.c. states that to every passenger was
given on or as many life preservers a be might
cboot to take, and tbey were lb mean of sav
ing many lives. By direction of Captain Dus
tan, planks were strongly lathed together and
pointed out to the passengers. In a word, every
thing was done that could be don. Tbe passen
gers, says Mr. 8., acted nobly ; ther was no
confusion, no selfish excitement ; each on teem
ed to regard more th safety of bit neighbor
than of himself. He speak in th itrongest
terms of their conduct.
Capt. Van Pelt, of th Mobegan, and Captain
Williams of the Cleopatra, furnished every as
sistance that lay in their powers; clothes, provi
sioni, every thing needed in fact, was given with
n umpiring hand. Mr. Tarbox, of Norwich,
also lavished bit hospitality upon eaeh and every
sufferer tbat be met ; hi kindness is moat high
ly spokn of by many who wr th subject of
It.
But on scene In the drama, our dnty. though
not our win,, compel us to publish. While th
band of death m as busy in this pier of sorrow
ana disaster, in band of mat was engaged in
robbing th victims of the storm. At lb bodies
writ washed ashore, there wer being ia human
from woo could with a callousness of heart al
most incredible, stoop dowa and plunder than of
every article of value to be found. The clothe
of some were cut, and watches, money, Jewelry,
eoytning convertible to gold, wa stolen. Did
we not know this statement to b true, w shonld
hardly dar to believe it.
Mr. Stetson leaves this alternoo forth scene
of disaster- Though he, as most of the passe a-
(rt saved, were much bruised by th floating
limner, w ar happy to stat is cot vrely

There were tlx female, four children, and

male wer drowned or crushed to death. Only
on of the children was saved, and h was th on
ly one of th family of which bt was a member.
His father, mother, married aister, and a yoin
ger titter, and two young brothers, were on
board. Tht poor tittle orphan thus saved, and
thus throwo alona on tht world, it only twelve
years of age. Th two infants were drowned,
frocen, or crnihed to death.
FURTHER PARTICULARS.
Th Journal of Commerce of Saturday after
noon learnt from Mr. W. W, Boyle, Clerk on
board, that after th steam chest parted, the ves
tel floated mm little way, and let go both ar.-
chors about one o'clock Thursday morning, where
sbe lay. The gal continuing to increase, tbe
grate belonging to th boilers were taken from
them, attached to a cable on board, and thrown
overboard, aa an additional anchor. The hag
gsg and cargo were thrown overboard, and pro
bably most of it was washed ashore by th vio
lenreof th gale. She did not teak a particle
from the time sbe anchored. Tbe anchorage
was very bad, a nothing but aton or rock
were found.
Th passengers numbered about forty five.
Every body on board of the, boat wis provided
with life preservers. A great many threw them
selves immediately into the sort, and depended
entirely upon the waves to throw them ashore.
Three waiters and the futirth rook, and most of
the passenger were lost by the falling of the
promenant deck. The list f passengers, both,
from Boston and Norwich, it saved, and was
given in charge of tbe Steward by tbe Clerk, for
safe keeping, but as it was wet, and required to
be dried before it could be used, no further par
ticulars can be given with any certainty.
The psssengers and craw were treated with
the greatett hospitality by Mr. Wintbrop, who
return thanks to him for bis very kind attention
to them.
There art pnly two houses on the Island, one
of which is Mr. Wintbrop's, as above stated.
Tbe bodies tbat were saved were carried over
to New London for interment, and all the atten
tion that can be paid to the recovered bodies
will be, (such as procuring coffins, shrouds, ke.
and giving them a respectable burial,) Ly tbe of
ficers attached to the Norwich and Worcester
Railroad Co. if the friends of the deceased do not
receive early intelligence cnoujh of this sad
event.
Captaia Dnstan'a body wet brought npto New
York by th Long Island Railroad train, and was
taken immediately to bis residence on Staten Is
land. Hi wif knew nothing of the event until
th dead body of her husband was brought home.
Sbe take it very aeverely indeed. Capt. D.
leave five. children, the eldest of whom is only
14 years of age. He intended to have hi life in
sured on tbe next passsge bom. W learn tbat
Captaia D. leaves but a slight dependence for his
family. It is related of Captain Dnttan, that to
the earnest expostulations of his companions in
peril not to expose himself by retaining bis poti
tion over th upper saloon, bis reply wss, 'If tht
Atlanlit goti, I go with her.'

The Miawlemppi tailed immediately for the

and despatched a lieutenant to Gen. PattertmVt

bout one hundred and fifty men, recruited for
the lit tnd 3d Infantry, will be dcepatcht-d im

A detachment of theee troops hi already ar

Although the city win taken withont the

officers ropret that Tampico wat surrendered
without a b'ow.
It it well enoch at it i. We incline to the
opinion that the place will become of the utmost
consequence to the intended operations upon
the interior. The withdrawal if the Mexican
