U. S. mail Steamer Ohio.
The Baltimore Sun, of -Tuesday last, has the fol
lowing graphic detailed account of the recent dis
aster to life steamer Ohio, during the tremendous
gale of the 22d and 23d ult. It is from the pen
of B. Mayer, Esq., of jthat City, who was one of
the passengers on voyage from Havana to
Norfolk: *
Sunday, the 25d, rose fairly, with a smooth sea
and a fair wind from the southwest. At 11 o'clock,
our townsman, Mr. John Gibson, read the service
of the Protestant Episcopal Church and nearly all
the.passengers, uniting in worship, closed it with a
psalm. In the afternoon the breeze freshened, and
our observation at noon showed that we were off
Cape Hiitteras. whose dreary winter storms are
proverbial. At* sunset,-the wind stillcontinued fair
and freshening ; but, with every hour, it increased,
until ten oclock, when we were forced to scud be
fore the'gale,’ hoping to get round the Cape, whilst
the ship was steadied by the action of her engine
alone. Thus we drove on before the storm until
two o’clock. By this time the tempest had raised
the sea, and the waves swept up like tall hills be
fore us. The steamer, stripped off every rag of
canvass, climbed them gallantly, while every one
who witnessed the scene hoped or believed that
before morning the gusts would abate, and that the
reduced wind, lulling into a fresh but favorable
breeze, would waft us safely round the stormy
Cape into smoother water. Suddenly, however, the
engine stopped on its centre)! In a moment, our
immense vessel i; branched to,” with a tremendous
shock. Every thing that was loose in her cabins,
state-rooms, and saloons were clashed to pieces; and
the broken fragments of furniture and crookery,
surging from side to side with.every lurch added to
the .frightfulness ol such a scene*at midnight on the
stormy sea,amid clouds and rain and darkness!
But our brave captain and his officers were alert
as soon as the power ot the engineers was no longer
available. Straining every effort,,they got what
ever fore and alt sail they could on .the ship, and
“ hove hy to,” whilst the single engine was again
fortunately set in motion. But the battle between
the storm and human energy was not ended.—
Scarcely had the canvass been stretched, wnen the
aiter sail, which was most important in steadying
ko large a ship at such a moment, was shivered to
atoms and blown in ribbhns from the bolt ropes,
like so much cambric ! The beating of the loosened
tackle, the rolling of the unmanageable ship, the :
crashing of the waves, the howling of the increas
ing wind and rauveontinued thus uninterruptedly
until towards daylight, when the alarmed and be
wildered' passengers crept from their berths and
rooms to learn that the barometer was rising once
more, and that the squalls were not so violent.—
Meanwhile the engine continued to act, and surgod
the hull'forward sufficiently to preserve steerage
aud to keep the ship out ol the trough of the sea,
The morning of the 23d was dreary enough, even
with the Hopes that had been l renewed by the lull.
No breakfast was served, and scarcely a servant or
steward, of all the large number on board, appeared
in the cabins to dffer refreshment to those who need
ed it after jtheir painful vigil. The lull of the wind
trom,the southwest proved, however, to be.only a
prelude to another storm of equal violence from the
northwest. As the day advanced the wind rose
again, and, creating a cross sea, rendered the ship
uneasier and more unmanageable. At nightfall our
hearts were sick with anxiety, for we were now
aware of the fact that such sails as we possessed
could do nothing for so huge a vessel as the Ohio,
and that our sole reliance was on the perfect, unin
terrupted action ol our crippled machinery! No
cooking had been done, and a slight ration of crack
era and tongue was all the refreshment obtained
during the day. The impudent or cowardly servants
of the ship skulked, and it was difficult to obtain
even a glass of water. All of us in the cabin, how
. ever, strove to keep up the spirits of our various
parlies, and the ladies manifested as much fortitude
in resisting the idea of ultimate danger. The pro
minent feeling of! the breast of all was that of anx
ious suspense, and not of dread.
So passed the temptuous night of the 23d, du
ring which I noticed that the Ohio had evidently
become more unsteady, and that she was certainly
buried in the trough of the sea,, w-allowing without
the control or power of control by the helmsman.
Wearied as I had been by watching all the 22d, I
went to my room about 3 o'clock, and,.bracing
myself on my trunk, against the side of the berths,
slept iintil daylight. When I returned to the up- i
per saloon, I found it crowded with anxious faces,
and when I spoke, as usual, ip cheering to the ,
ladies,ltelling them that all-would be well, and that j
the increased rolling of the ship was doubtles caus
ed .only by the abated wind, I was taken aside and
informed in a whisper that the crew had: been free
ing the ship from water all night, and thatthe rising
flood within her timbers had extinguished her fires
in the furnace beneath the boilers. I confess that^
I was, for an instant, appalled:; but it was onlyfftfr •>
an instant. I thank God for ! the hopeful temper
which made my soul rebound from danger, and, in a
twinkling, renewed my spirit. I felt sure that such
a ship was well provided, and that, with a ciew so
numerous, strong, and energetic, she could not be
left to sink among the waves. In an hour the news
came that the water still gained, and, in a lew min- -
utes, the gallant Schetick appeared in the cabin and :
with a firm but serious face announced that he could
not get sufficient men to work, notwithstanding the
awful peril of our condition. There was a moment
of silence; and I broke it by exclaiming that, if he ,
had not men in his service to free his ship, he has j
• passengers in his cabin who were ready to save her. ]
‘ Sir,*’ said he .promptly, “ your service and exam- :
pie will have the best effectand immediately a ■
band of fifteen or twenty rushed up the companion
way, and, scrambling along the rocky deck’as
welf as we could, advanced towards the places
where we expected to find the pumps in action!—
Yet, what was our surprise when we learned that
, there were at least four feet vyhter in the hold, that
i there was nqt a pump in the snip fit for service at
that moment, and that the only mode of rescue was
by drawing up the water, by crank wheels, in four
copper bucket', designed, in ordinary times, to con
vey the cinders and rubbish from the furnace room
beneath! The engine pumps could not work be
cause the fires were extinguished : the hand pumps’
were out of order, and the forward pump was re
pairing as rapidly as possible..
j I wrought'at the crank of one of the cinder buck
j ets for about half an hour, drawing up a bucket
j fit!f of about twenty-dive gallonsj on an average,
j every four or five minutes. I remained on deck as
j long as I could hold on and work, The pitching
and rolling of the ship, irom side to side, the dash
ing of the spray, and occasional parts of rain,
poured into our faces and over our-persons by the
fierce winds, w earied and benumbed us. We were
soon‘drenched with water: and, foodless as we had
been for two days, not equal to so great a task
■Yet non? of'us thought of death or danger. Our
only idea was’of work, and our only prayer for the
continued capacity to work. As I clambered along
the deck, back to' the cabin, holding on by every
bolt and baT I could clutch to prevent being pitched
overboard by the rolling ship, I stopped awhile to
look at the sea; There was something ferociously
grand in its aspect. Above was the cold gray sky,
like the. lid of a leaden coffin. As we lay in the
trough or hollow beneath the waVe's, two majestic :
i mountains of dark blue marble, streaked wdth frothy. I
veins, towered on either side. For a moment our
huge hull reposed in the valley between them, and
as the snowy crest of the windward wave combed i
over, like a cataract, threatening to engulf us, the :
gallant craft slowly raised her tall side and allowed
the serge to pass beneath her feet. But the wave
had its revenge for the ship’s contempt, for as it
rose to leeward, it sent the vessel tumbling and
groaning down its other slope, until she sank once
more to the. momentary quiet of the watery valley.
With each ol these serges, while on deck, I trem
bled for the ship’s safety, when I saw her so com
pletely at the sea’s mercy, and thought of the sun
dering strain that must necessarily be produced by
the tall iron chimneys in her center, each one of
which, as it swung from right to left, seemed to
itt like a gigantic lever, thurst into the vessel’s
midst, striving to wrench her in twain.
When I got back to our cabin, I found that the
.experience and admirable judgment of our brave
rawnsman. General Benjamin C. Howard, had sug- j
gested-aqd accomplished the perfet organization of '
working parties. The General went to work'
promptly with paper and pencil:—pledged every)
signer to work unflinchingly; divided the men into
sections of twenty, five of which went to work at
each crank in bailing out the water; and regulated
the hours of each division, so as to afford sufficient
repose and comfort to all. Schenck rallied the spir
its of all by pronouncing the plan one of confident
success. The first division immediately relieved
the watch on deck, arid thus, throughout the whole
day, we wound up the water from a depth 0/ about
fifty feet in the hold, by the four ash buckets which
were replenished continually by a man below who
filled them as they descended. In a little while it
was discovered that the organized labor of the fresh
responsible passengers told upon the water. It ev
4d^^ntly^decrease{,, and after due search, the leak
.was detected, and found to have occurred faom the
breaking flange from the supply pipe which
fed the. Doikf? from the sea. The aperture was
reached with some difficulty, by crawling in among
the machinery, and was closed by packing and rail-'
ing tared canvass across the rent.
Meanwhile the divisions wrought unceasingly
and cheerfully, especially when they heard that the
depth of water in the hold decreased, and that the
engineer reported his probable ability to rekindle
the fires, if we only continued to work stea’dily.—
By this time, too, the fore pump had been got into
service, and for awhile, a small upper steam engine
called “ the doctor had been set in motion to aid
in freeing the ship. “ The Doctor,” however, was
soon choaked or rendered useless by the .coal and
cinders that were afloat in the hold, so that we
were again reduced to the main reliance, on the ash
buckets. In the course of the day a sail had been
descried, and our flag hoisted with the Union down;
but the stranger either did- not see it, as it drifted
flat to leeward, or thought it useless to approach us
in so tremendous a sea.
At dark, on the 24th. the water had been great
ly diminished, and the engineer was reported to be
in good spirits. Our galiant captain snatched a
moment now and then from the deck, to, visit the
cabin with a cheering word or smile, and Howard
circulated among his divisions, enesuarging them
as nobly as did his brave ancestor on the battle
fields of the Revolution. Yet, when night closed
in, and the cabin lamps were lighted, there was
scarcely a being in the saloons, who, for awhile,
was not made very silent by the memory of the
day and hour. It was Christmas Eve ! Yet what
a contrast with, the wonted scenes of home !
Wives, parents,HriendSj warm firesides, peace, con
tentment, rose before us,. Merry little laces, laugh
ing, gay little figures, dancing around the lighted
branches of the Christmas tree! We thought of
the thousand hearts that were beating with hope
to be re united on the morrow with the sinking
dwellers in that ship. We felt that those-friany
eyes might behold us no more forever, and tjial a
violent, a dreadful death, would perhaps leave no
single remnant of the foundered ship to tell the tale
of her destruction. Fortunately, however, duty
gave us no respite for reflection or brooding mood
iness. Probably no one failed to offer a silent pray
er; but never was a band of struggling men more
nobly sustained by-mutual confidence, courage, en
durance or syppathy.
Scarcely had the sun set when the gales, which
lasted, with hardly an intermission, from the night
of the 22d, began to abate their violence, and as
they fell the sea fell with them. The working par
ties continued their .labors all night long, snd as
they wrought the waters ’decreased in the hold.—
Abont midnight the chief engine was enabled to
re-kindle his fire and raise the steam ; but when he
set the machinery in motion at day-dawn on the
25th, the engine was found to take only half a rev
olution and then stop! Here seemed the failure of
our last hope, notwithstanding the subsidence of
the sea and the appearance of an approaching
calm, for the vessel had been so long strained and
racked by the'rolling, that now, with every motion
her timbers groaned and cracked, as it another
swell Would sunder them completely [
At six o'clock I went-on deck'and found the day
fair and promising. The tempest was over. The
sea was :comparatively smooth. A brisk breeze
blew from the southwest, and “ a sail ” loomed up
on the Horizon. In the momentary doubt as to
whether. the engine could again be made to work,
our flag was boisted .with the Union down and
signals of distress repeatedly fired.. The schooner
soon perceived us and began to beat towards our
ship ; but before she got nearer than three miles
our engine had entirely cleared away all the coals
and cinders that choaked the action ol the engine
and had produced a perfect revolution of , ihe
steamer's wheels.
You may imagine the cheer that went up from the
crowded deck as the Ohio once pnore shot over a
smooth sea* and ceased to crack and groan and la
bor.in its engulfing waves. Silence succeeded that
cheer, for all were anxious to express their
gratitude to God and to entreat a continuance of
the promised mercy.
Sad as had been the Eve, the Day of Christmas,
1850, was perhaps the most joyous that williever
be past by most of the voyagers on the Ohio.
The sea continued'calm though the wind was fresh
_and fair. Our crippled and strained engine -was
?not P us bed, but was aided by all the canvass we
could crowd on the ship, which was now, at our
own solicitation, as well as according to the judg
ment of our captain, directed towards Norfolk, Va.
An observation in the morning and - at noon, show
ed us to be about 85 miles distant from Cape Hen
ry, but by the aid of wind and steam we were be
fore night fall well in ijnder the lee of the land, in
smooth, water. After dark the wind again fresh
ened to a brisk, ugly gal*, with a dirty and lower
ing sky, and in my first watch of two hours for
bailing water, I feared that we might again be for
ced to “ lay to,” as the officer of the deck found'it
necessary to strip, the ship of canvass. After mid
night, however, ajj we drew closer to land the wind
lessened, and when I came on deck in my second
watch at two A. M., I found the sky as clear as

silver, with a brilliant moon and multitude of stars.
At four I went below and to bed for the first time
in four .nights, and slept delightfully .until 1 heard
it announced that the light-honse was visible and
four pilot boats in sight.
Culture of the Sweet Potatoe.
" I have noticed two or three articles in the Gene
see Farmer on sweet potatoe culture in this State.
I have raised sweet potatoes several years past with
-good success and very little trouble, as a luxury for
my own table.
Four years ago, I purchased in Cincinnati some
dozen potatoes of the red variety, grown in Louisi
anna. Near thejast of May, I cut them open length
.'wise and covered them about an inch and a half
deep in a;hot-bed, the flesh side or raw part of the
potatoe downward. At evening, I poured boiling
water o'ver them, and repeated it again the next
evening. In a few days the shoots appeared, and,
when from .4 to G inches in length, I pulled them
off (by placing one hand on the potatoe and using
the thumb of the other to pull them off!) and plant
ed them in hills in my garden.; I proceeded in the
same way with every new set of shoots, until near
the last of June.
The season was remarkably warm and my hand
ful of seed yielded an abundant increase. I never
saw finer or larger potatoes .in Mississippi, and they
far exceeded any any' I ever saw in Tennessee or
the south part of Ohio; Some»of them were enor
mously large. I sold some of them for one dollar
per bushel; but they were mostly used in my fam
ily and given to my friends. I would here remark
that the vines do not die,"' like the common potatoe,
but remain green and apparently growing until
frqst comes; and, whenevsr the vines are touched
with frost, the roots are affected, and soon rot. I
lost a part of my first crop from r.ot knowing this
fact—letting them remain too long in the ground.
The next spring a friend sent me, from Cincin
nati, a box of sweet potatoes of the yellow variety,
which I treated in the same way, and had a fine
crop of large potatoes, some of which were exhib
ited at our county fair. The next spring I pro
cured seed from a genteman.near Erie, Pa., who
has cultivated them lor many years, and keeps ihe
seed through the winter. I had a fair crop, as* re
gards but they were inferior, both in size
and'quality, to those grown from seed brought from
the South. Th’ey were hard and stringy, while the
others were exceedingly farinaceous. I am induced
to believe that, when raised long from seed grown
at the North, they will run out, or so nearly as to
be hardly like sweet potatoes.
In the spring of 1849,1 got seed from Pittsburg
—red, yellow and white varieties. They all grew
well and produced abundantly. The red ones were
much the largest, and next in size were the yellow
ones.'
- All persons in-the western part of the State who
own a garden of rich, warm soil, may have their
patch of sweet potatoes if they choose. They
should never be planted until there is no danger
from, frost—from the middle until the last of May
is quite early enough. The hills should be about
three feet apart, and care should be taken to prevent
the vines from taking root, the consequence of
which will be a quantity of small fibrous roots, not
fit to eat. A good way is to collect them in a clus
ter on.the top of the hill. One shoot is sufficient
for a hill.— Cor. Gen. Fanner.
