He succeeded in saving a little. negro boy, —About 20 persons were standing on the bow of the boat when she wt nn down, most of whom-were saved. The river was covered immediately after the , accident . I with fragments of the' wreck. A portion of the stern of the ladies' cabin of the stett mer is still out of 'the water, Numerous small boats• were employed picking up the wounded. At half-past 5 o'clock, p, an alarm of, fire was given from the Flos , tona,.which called ~our fireinen promptly to the spot, but it happily was unfounded. ,On board the. Storm the destruction of life was also teqible. Mrs. Moody, ithe wire of the,first clerk, was standing on the guard opposite the ladies' cabin, and Was instantly, killed. The captain received a severe contusion in the head, but was not dangerously wounded, ,About 12 or 16 persons were killed, and a. large number wounded, some 'of whom will probably not recover. The confusion was so great , that it was utterly impossible to. ascertain the names. of one-quarter of those killed and wound ed.; and most probably, from the promis cuous cirowd of strangers, emigrants, &C:, a large., portion! of thew will never be known. • The fragmentq • yf iron, and blocks of wood, which were sent with the rapidity of lightning from the ill-fitted Louisiana, carried death and detruction in all direc tions. Men were killed at the distance of, two hundred yards. Legs, arms, and trunks, were scattered over, the levee. A mong those injured on the levee was Mr. Wra y - Clerk in the house'of Moses Greenwobd & Co., who had been on board !thesteritner. Knoxville, lying below the ferry landing, and: was paSSirt,, , up at the 'titne r the oc4ifrenee.

'al lads; but the names, as yet, are un. known. Those who were near the spot, at the tithe of the explosion, state that bed. its were blown as high as two hundred feet in the air, and fell in the river. Ono man, it is said, was'blown through the pi ' lot-house of the Dosturai, making a hole through the panels which Might bth mista. ken for the work of a cannon ball. ' • ' The steamer Storm was very close to the Louisiana at the: time of the explosion, l and she 'was sent back by the concussion at least fifty yards into the strearn.''" Her captain, although severely wounded, ap peared on:the 'litlrricanedeck, his face coy ' emir with blood, and coolly rave direc tions for hringiag his boat again In shore. lie remaitied , "firmly at his jiost, atlbrding all the assistance in his powet+ as long as it as needed. We noticed that one oldie ferry boats from the First Municipality came up, but she was unable to render much aid, as the Louisiana had already gone down. • There were, many miraculous escapes at the time of the explosion. Pr. Testut, of this city, was standing on the wharf, just after, baying :parted - with his friend,l Jr. Mondale, of Point Coupee, who is lost, when a fragment of iron struck, a : mart down at his feat. The poor Ibllow in (idl ing stretched on las lanais,. and convul sively, grasped the doctor's palt.ol„ tearjng ,his pocket nearly out. Death suon relax ed his grasp. Some were prostrated by the concussion 'rand enveloped in smoke, but reappeared to the eyes Of; their aston. ished ficiends as :sooty in visage , as et' sweep, yet perfectly unhurt.
