THE DAILY POST.
DERIOORaTtI OF THE XIIID DISTRICT
Now is the time to work. Go to the meet.
ing to be held in the Allegheny Diamond to
night and listen to what will be said. Let no
Democrat he deceived Voting for Thomas
Williams.. If the, candidates on your own
ticket say that they are going to vote fur
Williams the Black Republican, scratch them
from your ticket, Ask them them the ques
Lion whether they are going to vote for Bit-o
atlngliam or 'Williams. Make them show
their bands. If they are secretly working in
aid of the Black Republican candidate, let us
know it. As Democrats they have no right
to vote for Williams and ehtim your votes.
Your candidate John Birmingham is sound
on the tax question-rhe never was an attor
ney for Railroads like Thomas Williams—
he never was a Railroad Director like Me-
Knight—his record is clear—he is the only
man in the field who is entitled to a single
Democratic vote.
In selecting their ticket, the voters of the
XXIId district will make the test of Democ
racy, whether the candidates support John
Birmingham the Democratic candidate for
Congress.
ditOICINC4
The True Press, at last admits that "it is
of no consequence whatever, whether any of
the candidates traveled on Free Passes or
signed a Petition to the Commissioners," ur
not. This is the very trourol which the Pu.st
has all along contended fur "Free Press,
admi s that Mr. Williams, has traveled with
free passes, and been an attorney for the
railroads. This is nothing against him. The
Detnueracy object to him because he is a
Republican, and not a Democrat. The
True Press says emphatically, tliAt it is not
true that he (Williams,) is a (air can
didate." TheDenlocrals of the X \ I hi
will :nark this fact and vote for John Birming
ham, who is a.. Democratic candidate. Wil
liams wantstho Dee:au:ratio votes, but he will
not yield an.incli of hi's.:Pileak Republicanism
to gain them. . ,Ite deVends. upon liemocratic
office holders - to-forte them 'to vote for him
under his ha.rgaiiiwith ,them. lie brawls his
hatred of Democratic principles at the street
corners, and, through the ,e s olimns of his pa
per, yet &lila like .tin' inebriate Silenus,
when he meets a Democrat and asks his vote.
Nu true Democrat in the Twent3r..second Pis
trict, will be guilty of the preposterous folly
of voting for a Black Republican, who is so
bitter in denouncing them and their princi
ples as Williams. The Butler Democrats feel
outraged at the cheat that has been practised
upon them, and almost to a man, will vote for
John Birmingham. They do not and cannot
believe the menda2ious assertions that" Wik
liams;will be all right for the Democracy if they
elect him." He says he will not, that he is not
a Democratic candidate, ,and does not wish to
be so considered. He only wants votes
enough to send him to Congress, and then he
will laugh at the folly of every Democrat who
voted for him. Thank God, the Democracy
see the swindle which is attempted upon
them, and will not be defrauded of their votes.
A VOWEG FROM. BUTLER
An influential Democrat, residing at Pon,
tersville, Butler county, writes us as follows,
in a letter containing an addition to the club
of our Weekly. His feeling is the universal
feeling among the Democrats of Butler, in re ;
gard to the attempt to swindle them out of
their votes. Our correspondent says :
" I had a protest prepared for the Poet, on the
action of the Conferees at Bakerstown, in which
I f , commended the tender to be made to Alle
gheny, but as the Cu:ifereas afterwarde did just
what I wanted, 1 " decline" sending it;
I am highly pleased that they have brought
out a man, end I sincerely hope that be may be
elected."
This is sound doctrine
TON BUEl9llftiO OF Tlll4 ISTEADIELL
AUSTRIA.
We give this morning a statement of one
of the passengers regarding the late terrible
catastrophe at sea by which hundreds of hu
man beings have met a sudden and horrible
neath.
The ill-fated vessel was the Austria, pound
from Hamburg, to New York. She had on
board as passengers and crew, five hundred
and thirty-eight persons, only sixty-seven of
whom are known to be saved. Twelve of the
rescued reached Halifax on Sunday on beard
the bark Lotus, to which vessel they were
transferred from the French bark Maurice,
bound from Newfoundland for Nantes, in
France. They are now on their way to New
York on the steamer Prince Albert, of the
Now York and Galway line, the captain of
which generously detained his vessel in order
to bring them. Among the sa-ved we observe
the names of only three cabin passengers ;
namely, Theodore Eisfeld, the musician, Pro
fessor Glaubeneklee, and a son of Mr. Vezin,
of Philadelphia. Lyon Wolf, supposed to be
a clothier, doing business in New York, is al
so among the saved. Messrs. Chartres
Brews, and Professor Globensklee, have fur..
nisbod thrilling naratives of the catastrophe,
the former of which we publish. The fire
was caused by a culpable act of carelessness,
on the part of two of the officers of the ship,
the wholesale destruction of human life, is in
a great part attributable undoubtedly to the
utter absence of discipline of the crew, and
the panic that prevailed among the passen
gem. There is a hope that some of the un
fortunate passengers were pinked up by a
Norwegian bark that was seen in the vicinity
of the burning vessel, but it is a very faint
one. The bark Maurice, before she trans.,
ferred a portion of the rescued to the Lotus,
had decided to run for Fayal and land the
So County.
Is destined at no distant day, to be one of
the wealthiest in the,State. Her mineral re
sources are as yet but little known or appre
elated abroad. Some capitalists have, within
a year or two, been making investments to a '
limited extent in her mountain lands. The
Central Railroad which is on the northern
border has already within two or three years
stimulated investments in lands in the north
part of the county, where prices have been
steadily advancing—but are not-yet to OM
tenth their real value. The south part of the
County, on the completion of theConnellsville
and Pittsbnrgh Railroad, will put a nevi face
on thinge there.
.TeR years will vastly
change the population and resource§ of the
, oottutS.
Gold In Kansa•
The Secretary of the Interior is in receipt
of a communication from Gov. J. W. Denver,
dated Lecompton, K. T., Sept. 16,1855. Gov.
D. states that the reports of gold being dis
povered on the Arkansas river land the heads
of the Kansa , and S,uth of the l'iaite
rivvi are t'outirrued by bit, :.rrivals Iron] that
region, and by letters received from miners
who are engaged there. Among the miners
are a number who have been working in the
mines of California. They report that the
particles of gold are very tine, and it is diffi
cult to separate them from the earthy matter ;
but from the similarity of these mines with
those first discovered in California, it is
thought that auriferous quartz rock will also
be found in this vicinity. The mines em
brace an extent of territory some 300 miles
in length. The reports from the- mines - have
created intense excitement throughout Kan
sas, and companies are everywhere forming
to go thither to work them.
From the present indications liov. D. thinks
that not less than 2,000 persons, and probably
a great many more, will be in the mines next
winter. Russell, Majors 3 Waddell of4eav
enworth city, are sending out forty 'Wapiti
loaded with provisions for tha miner 4., In
view of the existence of these mines, Guy. D .
recommends that the lands they occupy be
withdrawn front pro emption, if they are now
open t, settlement. and be left in the same .
oomlition as those it the mining districts

STATEMENT OF A PASSENGER
lietavAx, N. S., Sept. 27.—The barque Lotm-,
from Liverpool, arrived in Halifax harbor ou
Sunday afternoon, with twelve of the sixty-nine
surviving passengers of the steamship Austiis,
burnt at sea, September 13th, in lat. 45 01, lou.
41 30, taken from the barque Maurice. on the
19th.
The agent of the Associated Press immediate
ly boarded the Lotus. and obtained the follow
ing particulars:
The following is the btatement of Charles
Brew, ono of the survivors :
" I look passage at Southampton on the 4th,
in the steamship Austria, Captain Heydtman,
which left Hamburg on the 2d. W sailed at 5
P. M , the evening being a Hifi,. Isi ,,ty. W e i n
consequence anchored between the Isle of Wight
and the main land ; sailed again at 4 o'clock the
following morning. In weighing anchor, an un.
fortunate accident occurred, by which one of the
crew lost; his life. Owing to some mismanage.
runt, the anchor ran out, whirling the capstan
around with ter.illo force, and hurling the men
in every direction Two were severe' injured,
and one thrown overboard. He was supposed
to have been instantly killed, as ho never ruse
to the surface. From the time the ship was laid
ou her course, we experirwed strong westerly
winds.
On the 12th the weather was more favorable,
and on the 18th a speeder eleven knots had been
attained, and all were in hopes of reaching
New York on the 18th. At alittle after 2 o'clock
P. M., I was on the quarter deck, when I saw a
dense volume of smoke burst from the after en
trance of the steerage. Some woman ran aft,
exclaiming, " The Ship is on fire I What will
became of us The ship was instantly put at
half speed, at which she oontinue.l until the mag
azine, exploded, from which I infer the engineers
were instantly suffocated. I only walked ;from
where I was on the quarter deck to the waist of
the ship, when! saw the dames breaking through
the lights amidships. As the ship Wibt3 head
to the wind, the tire travelled with fearful ea,
pidity.
I than went to the man at the wheel, and told
him to put the vessel with her side to the wind,
HE; hesitated—probably did not understand the.
as he wa a native of Hamburg. I then got a
German gentleman to speak to him. At ibis I
saw some persons letting down the boat on the
port side of the quarter deck. What became of
the boat). don't know, but think she was crushed
under the screw. 1 then went to get a boat
over from the starboard aide of the quarter deck,
but the moment we laid our hands on the ropes,
there were so many that crowded into it, that we
could not lift it off the blocks. We therefore
left it for a few 'moments untilthe people got out,
when we returned and launched it over the side
of the deck, when the people all rushing into it
again, it descendedl with great violence luta the
water, and it was instantly swemped,, all the
people being washed out, excepting three, who
held on the sides.
We then let down a rope, and pulled up one
person, who proved to be the steward. another,
in the act of being hauled up, was strangled by
the rope.
The fire now came on too fiercely to attempt
to get up any more from the swamped boat. All
the first cabin passengers were on the poop, with
the exception of. a few gentlemen, who must
hay been smothered in the smoking room.—
Many of the eccond cabin passengers were also
on the poop, but a number of them got shut in
their cabin by the fire. Some of them wore
pulled up through the ventilator, but the greater
number could not be extricated The last
woman who was drawn up said there wore six
already suffocated.
We now perceived that the ship had got her
heal to the wind again, eo that the danger came
over the quarter deck. In consequence of the
crowd I could not get to the wheel house to as
certain the reason, but I was informed that the
helmsman had deserted his post, and that the
vessel being left to herself, headed to the wind
of her own accord.
At this time the scene on the quarter deck
was indescribable and truly heart rendering --
Passengers were rushing frantically to and fro
—husbands seeVing their wives—wives in search
of theiir husbands--;-'relatives looking after relit , .
tives—mothers lamenting the loss of their chil
dren—BOMß wholly , paralyzed by fear—others
madly crying to be saved—but a few perfectly
calm and collected. -
The flames pressed so closely upon them that
uniaYjdniped into the sea ; relatives, clasped in
each other's ago, loped veer, and wet a wa-
tery grave. Two girls, supposed .to be sisters,
jumped overboard and•spnk kissing each other.
A missionary and his wife-leaped into the sea
together, and the stewarnees and assistant titew-
ard, arm in arm, followed.
One Hungarian gentleman, with qeven Jule
ohiliren, four of them girle, modelie - wife jump
Hl:n6ed hie s x 1:1th . .3t Cllll,l f ell made
them jump in, one after the other, and followed
them with an infant in his arms. I, about this
tinge, was standing outside of the bulwarks,
holding on by tho davitn, leaning out to avoid
ho whioh were leaping towards rne. I
saw a swamped boat under me, spinning by a
rope Mill ettaobed to the ship. As the ears wet°
tied in her, I thought if I could get to her, I
would be enabled to save myself and some others;
I let myself ddwn by d'rope, passing over a men
who was clinging to it, but refused to come with
me. I took out a penknife to cut the tackle
the large blade broke, and I then Hovered it with
the small blade. The ship then passed ahead;
and as the boat approached the Barely, I found
the boat was then drawn towards it. I tried to
keep it away, but the screw caught the boat;
and capsized it uver me. I dived away frorri
the ship and came to the susface near the boat;
which was nowiteellipwards.
1 'got an her,,-and by' pressing en•one side, with
the assistance'of a wave, she righted, but was
still swamped ; the oars had been knocked out
by the orew ; the only thing I could find In her
to paddle with was some laths, nailed together ae
a sheathing for the side ; when I looked around
the ship was a quarter of a mile from me ; I
could see the ladies and gentlemen jumping off
the poop into the water, in twos and threes,
some of the ladies being in flames ; several hoe
itated to leap from the burning ship until the
last moment, as the height was twentrt . ” feet,
and were only et length compelled to :crow
"themselves off for avoid' a' more painful death.
In half an hoar not %soul was to be seen on the
poop. I pulled after the ship and picked up Ei
aerate°, who was swimming strongly. I got
him beside me on the boat, and we pad•lled after
the ship with the laths. I now saw a vessel un
der sail approaching. She reached the steamer
at about five P. M.; we continued pulling ta
warda them, and at about half poet seven, after
being five hours in the water, got within nail of
the sailing vessel. She put off a boat and took
us on board. She proved to be the French barque
Maurioe, Capt. Earnest Renaud, of Nantes,
bound from Now Foundlaud for the Isle of Boar,
ban, with fish. She had, up to that time, rest
cued forty passengers of the burning steamer,
chiefly taken off the bowsprit, though a few were
pinked up floating around. _
At about eight n'elook, one of the alkali°
boats came up, with about twenty three persons,
iuoludi g the second and third officers. After
wards three or four men were picked ' up, float-
iuff on a piece of a broken boat. The second
officer was taken up, having been swimming,
with nothing to float him, for six hours. The
second and third officers were severely burnt.
One male passenger was hurt frightfully, and
same of the female passe,pgers slightly.
There was but six women saved, three o f
whom were burnt, one in a shocking manner.
Capt. Renaud acted with the utmost kindness.
He gave clothes, as far as he could furnish them,
to the suffering passengers, and Elated as a nurse,
doctor and surgeon to the burnt people, dressing
the wounds of the females with a delicacy and
tenderness that evinced a benevolent and amiable
disposition.
I did not see an officer of the ship during the
fire, and am certain that there was not one of
them or the crew in the poop, except a man at
the wheel for a short time. I understand that
when the captain hoard of the fire he rushed on
deck without a cap, and when he saw the flames
exclaimed, "we are all lost!" He tried to got
out a boat, which accidentally or not, I , do not
know, fell into the sea, and was soon left far
behind. The fourth officer was in this boat. He
cut her loose from the davits She was carried
under the screw and smashed, and several in her
were drowned. Three or four men escaped on a
fragment, and were picked up by the Maurine,
as before stated. About the same time the
metallic life-boat was let down from the port
bow and swamped, but got cleared away, with
about thirty three persons in her, including the
first and third officers and several women.
The men in this boat capsized her two or three
times in trying to clear her of water. Ten per
sous were thm drowned, including some women..
hey afterwards bailed her out with life pre
servers, cut in two, and pulled to the Maurice,
having picked up two or three passengers be
fore reaching the barque. Altogether there
were sixty-seven souls taken into the Maurice
during the night.
A Norwoigian barque oamo up with the
steamer next morning, and a boat was observ
ed going around the burning ship. They may
have picked up a few persdns, but only a very
few.
The Maurice had no communication with the
Norwegian barque.
At about seven o'clock, the Maurice sailed for
Payel, to deposit the rescued passengers.
At about two o'clock the , same afternoon she
fell in with the barque' Lane, .oapt. Tiafy, of
Varthmouth, N. 8., from Liverpool for Halifax.
As I was anxious to get. on British territory,
Capt. Trafy kindly gave me a passage. He
was anxious to take all the American citizens,
but there was such a rush ofjctreigners into the
boats that only one load of eleven could he got
off, and even several of these were foreigners.
The fire is known to -have arisen from very eul,
pable negligence of some of the crew.
The captain and surgeon deemed it expedient
to fumigate the steerage with burning tar. The
operation was to be performed by the boatswain,
under the superintendence of the fourth officer.
The boatswain heated the end of a chain to dip
in tar, in order to produce smoke. The end be •
came too hot to bold, and he let it drop upon
the deck, to which it set fire. The tar upset,
and immediately all about was in flames. A fee
ble attempt was made to extinguish it, but with
out effect. There was nothing at hand to meet
such an emergency. The rescued passengers
saved nothing but the clothes on their backs,
and even the greater part of these--Were- torn off
and otherwise lost. Six hundred souls were sup
posed to ba on board including men, women and
children.
Mr. Brew is the only British subjeot saved.
He is in the British civil service, and on his way
to British Columbia. He ill proceed to Boston
in the steamer Eastern State, on Tuesday, en
route for New York.

for the admiesion of Kansas the moment she pre
sents a constitution which has been submitted
to .he people and ratified by them, irrespective
of the amount of her population. Re also

it never has been done with success, nor can it be,
on account of the conflicting interests of differ
ent sections of the country, and that every eon•
tion will, as a matter of course, adopt measures
ealenlated to advance the interests of its °hi,.
He also showed up in bold relief the incon
