The "Oneida" Didtater—Artival of Fon
ty-titne of the Survivors—A Statement
by One of Them.
- . [From thee. Boaletta.]
The steamship America arrived in this
port yesterday from China and Japan,
and among her passengers were 49 of the
airily's, ofthe terrible disaster by which
the U nited Statei steamer Oneida was
lost. . „
after the criTal of. the" America
one of our reporters had an interview
with one of the survivors who was a
ptincipel-witheeziln the inveatigations
'Which were held soon after the Catastrophe
occurred. He gave the following ac.
count of what he witnessed. He was on
deck when the Bombay was first descried
coming on the starboard bow •of the
Oneida. The night was clear and star-lit,
and only a moderate sea running. The
Bombay was coming broad on the Onei
da's starboard bow with her helm ported,
when II sheuld have been, to , avoid a
collision, put to starboard. The Boni
hey kept bar helm a-port till within one
hundred yards of the other vessel,
when she must have atarboarded, for she
laid off a little bat not. enough- to
clear, and struck the Oneida almost full
on her starboard quarter, just forward of
the mizzen rigging. The shock was ter.
rifle, but the headway of the Bombay was
hardly checked for an instant. As she
'cleared, the startled officers and crew of
the Oneida took in at a glance the fearful
extent of the injury to their ship. Nearly
the whole of her starboard quarter was
shivered and swept away, and a broad
qpening cut into her hull clear down to
Mr water's edge. That she must fill and
go down - In a few minutes at &Attest was
terribly evident, and as the Bombay was
still on her, course, and the shore was
dietant-betweetitten and three miles from
them, the case looked desperate. How-
Over,:aßer the collision, Mr. Steward,
'Executive officer of the fluids, hailed
the „Bombay and 'received a response.
Then her steam whistle was soundest and
Ike order given to bring powder from the
asgazthe. hi gun No. 1, st titenerd—sa It
Was lightly judged that onq would be the
lent above water. The men responde,ct
with alacrity; and while tb.eßombaywas
still in full view, and within plain hearth
distance, three guns were fired in rapid
tocceszion.
There was no response from the other
Ship—no check or change in her course.
The ill fated Oneida was settling rapidly
by the stern•, and while the brave gun
ners were trying to charge their piece
for the fourth tame, they stoixl over the
knees in water, and could only load the
gun without firing it. -
Instantly on the occurrence of the col
lision, the order was given to clew saint,
and get ant bead sails to steer by, as the
steering-apparatus was gone. The men
obeyed this order, also, as if they were
rot confronted by the prospxt of instant
aeath.
When it became apparent that the Som.
ray would not stop, and that the Oneida
could not float but a moment longer,
despair seized hearts, but no panic
followed.
The navigating officer, Mr.• Midden
called out to Capt. Williams. who stood
on the bridge, "CaptainWillis.ms, the
ship will go down in three minutes bi
the stern. You had better go in the
boat."
Bathe responded, "Save yourself and
all you can; never mind me. This is my
place; Iwill stay hen", Then, thinking
that possibly the ship might be in-sound
ings, he called to the men forward and
all over.lhe decks, "All hands lay out in
the rigging!' Instantly, says our infor
mant, every part of the rigging was black
with the poor fellows, who, like so many
wing Less, ,helpien, birds, perched and
clung in It and on , the • yards, hoping to
thereby liftthemselves above the profound
abyss of waters which seemed already
yawning beneath them. The third gun

discharge, the gunneri stood knee deep
lathe sea, they coal& not ffre again, the
lest signal was given but one. The
Oneida trembled. as • if conscious of her
doom; she shook, settled by the stereo
her prow pointed a. second skyward, and
then the fated ship plunged like a shot
stern downwards. As the surging waters
parted to receive aid eigniph her, one
concerted, piercing shriek from every
line and mast and spar went up to heaven
and all was silent. The Oneida had giv
en her last signal for help.
The story of the rescue of the few for:
tunate survivors. is well known.. ,Tae
Oneida's gig was emsahrid in the collision,

excitement among the oil operators is
situated near the . head of Arnistrong

miles front - Brady's Bend, acesessible by
tolerably fair wagon roads. Operations
from either point on this wellware com

against a deluge of this kind, the belief
In big wells having given way to uncer
tainty when the bottom fell out of Plthole,
and the well was soon In a blare. The
fire was not extinguished until-noon of
Wednesday. Whaklitet struck the well
was estimated at 1000 barrels, a rather
wild exaggeration when we consider the
the excitement and the breadth of. terri

queer* of the strike. •• •
Empty barrels were :brought from all
points In the vicinity, a tank was put in
position and everything was - working
smoothly yesterday evening -when the
tank took fire through the carelessness
of some person in Lighting a cigar. The
tank and quite a number of barrels
had been filled were entirely consumed,
between two and three hundred barrels
of nil being lost. This morning two
wooden tanks are being put no, and
before night live hundred barrels tank
age will be. available. Owing to the ere
last night, two pipes leading from the
conductor have been plugged,.allowing
the oil to pass through but one pipe, and
persons present, who presume to know
all about production, estimate the yield
at four hundred barrels, holding'
from • four to six hundred barrels In
reserve to be ,added to Its present yield
when the - tools •are taken out.
The oil is of a bright amber colored

immediately. The territory around the
well is being leased rapidly for one

dons to be commenced at once. - A tract
of 80 acres hillside ' lying within four '

hands yesterday evening, for $33,000. A
tract of 20 acres, three-quarters of a

The company have contracted for pipe
to carry the oil from the .well to the

PITTSBURGH. Aprll2l, 1830
RDITGRa Oa I see by a linter
patillabed In suety joUraal this morning
that there is giing to be an attempt made
to break through the two-term seat in
convene. Allbw me to say , that I have
had business 'acquaintance with and
personal knowledge of each of oar rem•
sentativea in Congress sums Ritchie
occupied the seat in 1853, and bat while
none of them have stood prominent as
publicists, there has not been one who
has paid as diligent attention to his duty
as Geo. Negley, our present representa
tive.
I had occasion to visit Washington
lately, and stopping at the hotel where
Gen. Negley takes his meals, became
aware that he sits at his breakfast at
80 , 0112 in the morning, sitting ten or
fifteen' minutes; afterwards has the
meriting papers read to him While ha I.
reading and answering letters until ten
o'clock, from which time until twelve
he accompanies visitors on official calls
of business or pleaiture; then sits In the
House until adjournment, usually about
Sour o'clock; next at dinner for fifteen
minutes; afterwards in his mat at the
House until adjournment; then Writing
until midnight. I noticed that he was
everywhere reoelved with marked atten
tion, and by officials In the Treasury
office with instant compliance to hie
requests. - Hie personal habits command
respect; his appearance is disunited; his
address canteens; his face rosy with the
deserved blessing of good health and
sound constitution; Ms eye bright as any
bird's, and free from the appearance of
gullet his grasp firm • and hearty from
hands that have evidently been Scene
tamed to labor. He never drinks, nor
does he allow hinundf to remain in the
company. of vicious people. He pays one
secretary, and occasionally several as
instants. , In short, for not even as meth
pay as will meet his expenses, he per.
forms well an amount of labor that not
one in a thousand could have physical
strength to go through.
Hts . moral integrity stands grandly
before the people who know him best,
his truth, hie honesty of purpose, Ms
purity in love and marriage, his aym
path,. towards those in distress, his
assistance to those who are In trouble,
reminding me of the beautiful line in
Virgil, where Queen Dido sang, "hood
ignore; mon: 'Muria suceurrere disco."
In short, Mr. Editor, when General
Negley la contrasted with irregular
aspirants for • the second term due to
him, he will not suffer In tne contrast,
sod I hope to see no good Ripublioan, no
fr lend of a good soldier, coveting a post
ticn justly due to the General.
I am, yours truly, B.

Mactare the "Munson Copper Tubular
Lightning Rod" with Spiral Flanges. It
is now thirteen years since this rod was
introduced and of the thousinds erected,
no rod has failed to protect the building.
This fact should Insure its adoption by
all persons who need rods. There are
many worthless imitations of lightning
rods sold over the country which render
the liability to accident greater than no
rod at all, hence we urge the, public to
buy the Munson Copper Rod,' and' thus
secure the beat protection that can be
provided..
—Considerable Injury has been done to
the Erie Canal at Schenectady and wait
of that point by the freshet.' Repairs are
progreaalnir, but the Impression la the
canal will not be opened before the 10th
or 16th of May.
