ITT .OH . THE masissimt. RIVER,;,-THE
BORNE'S OR TITE,BURNINTI BOAT—LOST.'
From St.' Louis papers on Saturday
morning -we-glean-the following partic- .
Ulars relating to the horrible catastrophe
whleh o'crdired on Friday evening, ontho
MiSsissippi, off Nceley's point.,
The Stonewall was a strongly built
freight and passenger steamer, 01.000
.::.tOns capacity. She was . built at ,Jeffer-
Indiana; March, 1803, by th
''Howardis, fOr''D'ennis 'Lorig, John" S.
Shaw, E. Fr, Dix; and J. P. McKinney.
..ltewit's - of - these dimensions :
Length 230 feet ; feet hold ; over
_ 40 feet beam. _Fier:value in February,
1807, was noted by the underwriters at
$BO,OOO, and in February, 1860, $42,000.
-At-the tithe of the disaster she was the
property of John S. Shaw 'and Dennis
Long, -each one-half. Iler insurance
amounts 'to"$30,000 in all. •
" She was 42 feet beam and seven feet
hold ;-_ she has four boilers, 40 inches
diameter and 20 feet long ; she ran in
the Red river and Missouri trade, and
has ran on the MiSsissilipi since the-mid-'
rile' 'Of August ; during the Summer she
run in the Omaha Packet Company, that
is Irani:Spring till August ; the engirie
cylinders were six feet stroke, the wheel'
28 foot, and the bucket 12 feet ; shelled.
been quite "reently in the clocks, and
. --liadbOon-nowly-flttecl-up-wiiii -bedding;
&c. In July last she met with a mishap
and her texas and chimneys were de
stroyed ; she was on the docks four
weeks ago ; she was on only two days;
the boat was capable of holding in the
cabin 76 passengers, or, in a pinch, by
Um aid °foots, 125,. and tho boat was pl
. lowed to carry 200 deck passengers ; she
was a side Wheel boat,'and at tho.time of
thernishap ran independent, though in
tended to go in the Red river trade as
soon as the river raised.
. TICE TRIP.
The Stonewall left St. Louis Tuesday
. night, at six o'clock, and having on both
-freight-and-liassengers,- - to - trevent -- tho'
'crew 'from leaving she sailed to the oilier
side of the river. Having loaded at the
foot of Elm street, she set sail from the
Elevator;-at Bast St. Lonis, 'on Wednes
day morning at three o'clock. She land
ed at Chester; Illinois, where she took
in 800 barrels of flour on Wednesday
forencion, between 10 and 11 o'clock.
.-11Iany.of tljo dock,passengers
ers who had howled the night before
along the groggerics of the Levee, and
taken their last spree on 'earth, and were
bound for tho New Orleans levees, to die
beneath a weltering sun, or worse, tOlin
ger into eternity by slow fevers, diSease,
and pestilence. The boat next stopped
at Grand Tower, and took in 800 or 1000
bushels of.coal, but no passengers, and
ber next stop was toll - m.O ben at Cape
Girardeau, from which the scene of the
catastrophe isahont 15 0r,20 .

is just below Harris' Landing, nearly op
posite, not more than 200 yards from the
Missouri shore, at a point in the river
where the width is a mile and a. half
from shore to shore. When the Are first
broke out the boat was 200 yards from
the shore, but byWheeling she landed at
Tea Table_Bar, just opposite Neeley'S
binding about 200 yards from the shore:
EMIEMEE!
It beggars description—words
imagination is at fault. Two hundred
and eighty souls ushered into eternity.
A blazing fire. behind them, and a death
amid icy wateVs_beforc_them. It was
about.half.paSt-sizt-in the evening, —ln

of 120 emigrants and worldly," peo,

upper ; others were talailg their last
mouthful, when a small blaze not larger
than your hand, broke out on a pile
of hay, and a solitary deck hand ran for

to mouth the soul stirring cry,ran, and
' in a moment the deck passengers were.
palsied with fright and desperate with
excitement: Hardly heard in tne cabin
the first cry was regarded only as aruse,
perhaps a row among - the deck paSsen
gers.; some were a little full-of liquor—
then in a twinkling came the second cry,
a yell—a maddening cry ,of Tire ! fire I'
that pierced the deck, and rang-through
. the ears, of the suliper eaters like a death
• knell.' .Now there could be no mistake—
It was no foolishness now. That cry
meant life or death, and every one felt
it. To the upper deck, to the cabin,
- -fore-and aft, people ran. Panic, fear,
and frenzy ruled the' hour. There were
77 life preservers in the state rooms, but_
only one man-secured. , There was a
• „yawl, but some of the deck • ppsengers
siezed it, and, without oars, indiscrimi
nately paddled. ashore with their
hands. From the small' blaze on the
hay near-the Lair deck. the fire spread
to the coal'oil,.and the NI - bolo ithip was
. on blaze. The boatwas loaded with ba
con and other solidifies, and 'the flames,
. spreading with
, fsarful iapidity, soon
- 'found the solid Coabustibles, and an in
tense heat was generated.; •

RENTER OP THE STEAMER. • -
" The first I knew/of the fire was tints';
The officers, including myself, had just
sat down to supper, and we heard 'a
negro cry 'Fire ! fire ! fire' l the
boat's - afire.' The,mate said, '"
if that
„....11—d nigger doesn't stop holle'ring, I'll
the-Son of a oil" The mate was
irritated, 'as the naKohadgiven a false'
alarm of fire once before. - A second or
.7- WO after this there was a cry of lire
again, intermingled wits a sound of - ex
. citement and confusion, and cycry• one
at the table was instantly considous that
• peril existed. We all jumped up from
our chairs and scattered. T. ran to the
forward step, and — descended amid a
101 Stream 7 6r passengers, officers, and
srewone madly rushing, : struggling,
closely jammed mass, impelled by a com
• mon desire, and only desire— to' escape
a burning Mississippi - steamer. I saw
the fire; we could all see it, gathering
headway rapidly, as some of us has seen
it ',attire , on other boats; and as 'allJutd .

with :the :wind from the South, blowing

me a Minch() of clothes ; the heat was
about 200 yards from-th 6 bank of the ri
ver, on the;' Missouri. side, and I was
trying to maid:there as quickly as, prat
ticable ; the water was almost alive with
people,,mulea, and Lore}; : were loose
previously on deck, and some one I sup
pose cut the horses losoe, and the tur
moil drove theimoverboara. The ,bun-:

Well, and I vent for a ladder. Glasp
ing theladdthilraS, a .negro,- Ho kept
tut:ling , round and round, until I
thought I-would be ' lost, and I, called to
him, '' For God's sake don't keep turn
ing the ladder, and we'll both get
ashore I-It must have been out of his
wits, for he kept turning, the ladder fell
off, and he went under. I:made a dash
for a bail of hay, and got on iL. The
banh burst and the hay fell to pieces. I
then got a small board under each arm,
and by this means, and a good deal of
kicking up of my heels, got to the bank.
I was ulmost to exhausted too stand,
and a kind farmer.•eamo along arid
-helpechme-to-his-house-near-by-,---where
I received much attention. While I was'
in the water I saw a woman, go down
beside me, but I could not help her. She
was an Irish woman, 'and had been a
Passenger on duck. The shrieks and
cries of the people drowning, or about
to go under where heart rending and
al
nhost made mcierazy. One of the : most
terrible sights I ever saw was, a .droWn--
ing child. It came floating past Me but
I saw only' the little hands and Wrists
raised, I thought her last smothered
words were " mother ! mother I " Her
lips, head, body, 'so soon to be cold and
lifeless, where floating, sinking beneath
the-waves. -When I was .struggling-to
ward§ the shore, I overtook Vandevort,
one of the " strikers." lle was saved,
and I savr him get off the Belle Memphis
at Grand Tower. I believe the officers
and cabin crew numbered about 61, and
roustabouts and firemen 50. Chas. Wil
liams, deck hand, was saved, and anoth
er deck hand I know of, but forgot his
name. John Berneihy, a .deek hand, I
think is hist. I heard -- Captain Fulker- -
son, the pilot, say the last he saw of
Captain Thomas. Scott, commander of
the boat, and, Captain J, C. Dowty,
New Orleans, they we're together on the
boiler deck. Captain Scott had a lad
der, the same : l . saw the negro drowned

the evening. The Belle - 31cmpirts - bound
