    FEARF-t'L DISASTER.
Lota or the Steamer Swallow.
The usually safe and peaceful navigation of the
Hudson has been marked, since the opening of
the present season, by an unusual number of se
rious accidents; but not for many years have we
been startled by an event of such magnitude, and,
there is perhaps reason to fear, of such distres
sing consequences, as that which we are now
called on to record. We give all the informa
tion that we have been able to obtain.
The swallow, it appears, left Albany on Mon
day evening at six o'clock having on board pas
sengers in number variously estimated at from
200 to 330. At a little alter eight o'clock, she
truck upon the point of the island bptween Hud
son and Athens, with such force as to lift the bow
entirely out of the water, break the boat in two,
and render her a complete wreck.
About one hundred of the passengers were
brought down by the Rochester, and fifty by the
Kxpress, the remainder being landed at -Hudson,
many preferring to stay there forthe purpose of
making an effort, in the morning, to recover their
baggage from the wreck.
Thk Lives Lost nt tiik Swallow. The
apprehension that lives had been lost by the wreck
f the Swallow has, we are sorry to say, proved
too true, as we learn from the Tribune. Tues
day was devoted to the sad duty of probing the
sunken wreck for the bodies of the dead, and
with a too fatal result. Seven bodies bad been
recovered six being females. Among the lat
ter had been already recognized Mrs. Briggs,
Miss or Mrs. Wood, and Mrs. Coltrou, of Troy,
whose hiebund came down on hearing the news
of the disaster, and was present when the body
of his wife was recovered. A gentleman from
Albany had just arrived in search of his two sis
ters, who were discovered in the wreck. Mr.
iilson, who was on board with his wife, escaped,
but can find nothing of her so fur. It is possible,
however, that shu was taken up by the Rochester
l'.xpiess.
It is known that a Mrs. French and an old lady
named Mrs. Lambert was drowned.
It was rumored that a young lady, a niece of
Joseph C. lleartt, Esq., of Troy, had died from
fright, after having reached the shore in safety.
A correspondent of the Mirror communicates
the following incident which occurred on board
the steamboat Swallow.
"The awful scone exhibited to the wlf-pos-ses
sed observer many striking traits of human
nature. In the very height of the confusion and
dismay, on the upper deck, when all was dark
lies, the snnw tailing1 fast, the bent t-inkinrr ra
pidly, wives shrieking (or husbands, sisters for
brothers and children fur parents, and the ac
cents ol a prayer best befitted the lips the voice
of a s'ronjy hearted ruffian was henrdeven above
the tumult, pniiriii volleys (if oaths at the ptor
!onixed females around him, because of the
emotion they exhibited. A gentleman wan
Itiirryinj: up from the lower cabin, with difficul
ty recapiuir the pursuit o! the waters, and when
lie reachi-xl the saloon he saw a husband hasten
from a state room beside him closely hugging- a
valise, while lii wile, with an infant in her
arms, and another liltio child by her side,
cried to him i tie rushed a way, never turning
iiishend to view their fate 'I liisband ! husband!
iu Cod's, ttaute, drop your valise and save your
wife and children!' But he disappeared unheed
ing, lie probably preferred the miserable pold
in his Vilise tu hi wife and children ! A pen
tletnnn, although lie hud apparently lost every
thing, except the clothing on his back, did not
make an tflort for himself until he had secured
the safety of that family. We rejoice to be a
Me to ofTsctt so fiendish an inhibition ot selfish
lies, with the energy of disinterested generosi
ty." One ninn, on bring seised by the hair, and his
Lead lilted ait of the water, exclaimed, 'Save
lier 1 save her t let me go and save her 1" On
looking fa it her, they found and succeeded in
rescuing the lady, who was a it appeared, on
ly an acquaintance, who had been placrd in his
charge. A gentleman of Dctr.iit, nauu d lluc-t,
liaving a hag containing 1J1."IM in guld, jump
ed overboard with the big upon his arm, hut
soon was obliged to let it go. lie wan only sav
ed by having fortunately grasped a narrow strip
jf board, as lie jumped. Close after him came
another man, claiming the board, with curses
end imprecations. Ashe struck out from the
boat h. almost immediately went down, grasp,
ing the possessor of the board by the foot. He
liowevcr, released himself with great difficulty
and was saved.
Anlliracll Coal amt la China.
About two weeks ago, the Barque Rio Grande
took in a load of Anthracite Coal at Richmond,
Ihe Depot of the Reading railroad, above Phila
delphia on the Delaware, to be taken to Boston
and to be shipped direct to China ! The pro
proprietors ol this enterprise are Messrs. Staf
ford & Co., two Xew England men. They are
also to load another ship at New Yoi k for the
Celestial Empire. This enterprise, so startling
to the great mass of our people, has no doubt
been well consideied by the close, calculating,
clearsighted Yankees who have undertaken it, and
it may be the commencement of a great and pro
fitable trade with that singular people. Only think
of it: In 1620, the first Anthracite coal reached
the sea board fiom the Lehigh, and then only
3C5 tons. In 1533, it was first transported down
the Schuylkill canal to Philadelphia, and only a
few year before, an influential Senator from
Schuylkill declared in bis place, that there was
a kind of black stone which some fools called
coal. In 161 1, from the Lehigh, the Larkawana,
the fcwatara, the Susquehanna, and the Schuyl
kill, more than ONE MILLION, SIX HUN
DRED THOUSAND TONS was tent to market ;
and in 1845, several ships were loaded with j

Trofessor Espy't Theory.
Without pretending to much knowledge ef Pro
fessor Espy'i extraordinary discoveries, I ven
ture to say that some of our public prints in the
cities exhibit as little proficiency in his scien
tific meteorology, as those upon the banks of the
Susquehanna. The extensive fires in the forests,
and the great density of the smoke, for several
weeks, without producing rain, some suppose to
be a decisive refutation of the E.ipian theory.
On the contrary, I assert that they corroborate
both the principle and the exception, which he
has announced. To produce rain, his theory re
quires that the smoke should ascend perpendicu
larly, that is during a calm. Now, the recent
fires and smoke have been attended with strong
and continuous currents of wind. Rain has not
followed during this concommitancy, and thus
the exception has been proved. Rut, the wind
ceased between the 15th and ICth inst., and on
the morning of the 10th, and during the day, we
had rain. About the commencement of this
smoky atmosphere, during a calm, another rain
occurred, which ceased upon the wind rising.
Mr. F.spy states another exception to the produc
tion of rain, by the upward current of air, caused
by large fires that takes place when the upper
atmosphere is too light to sustain clouds, with
out which rain may not be produced. These are
the only exceptions recollected. . B.

A Merited llebnke.
We have heard a pretty good story, which is
told of our new Postmaster General. It seems
he was waited on not long since by a Rhode Is
land Senator, who importuned him to oppoiut 'o
the New port Post Office, a eon of the old incum
bent. The Senator told a very melancholy
story about the poverty of the applicant, and of
the benefits which his family would derive by
hi. appointment. It was urged that the appoint
ment would be deemed an act of cumiiicnduble
charity.
Mr. Johnson heard the Senator through pa
tiently, and addressed him as follows: 'Mr.
G , do you whigs in Rhode Island, when a
vacancy occurs in any of your State offices, till
them with poof democrats!
'I do not know that we do,' was the reply ;
'but then this is a particularly hard case; the
applicant is, I assure you, a very, very deser
ving man, who is poor and has
The l'ost Master General interrupted the
Senator thus : '.Mr. G , have you let poor
Dorr out of that Prison V
'Why no,' said the Senator 'ahem good
morning Mr. lohnson, good morning.'
This simple story shows how hard it is for
Fenncrites to awaken the compassion of demo
crats in high places in Washington, with pitiful
stories, so long as the course of the party is so
proscriptive as it is in this Slate, and above all,
so long as Mr. JJurr is held in his dungeon.
