About one hundred passengers are said to have been lost, including some persons of note in the Uirited States. The boats had been re- ciiig frutti Albany, and regardless of the cries and eritreaties of those on board the Henry Clay, the officers persisted lll con- tinuing the race. Owing to the large quantity of pitch at other coriibristible materials used to keep up the tires, the he became so intense, that the fire-room was set on fire, and riot- withstandiug the efforts of the crew, the fltirtres spread rapidly. and the l.e.it became so intense that it was iuipossiblc to go from the forward to tltc iifter part of the vessel. Finding all attempts to subdue the flames iinaratlirig, the steamer was turned towards the shore, and her how struck upon the herd sand, tvitliirt a few feet of the shore, brit the stern was in about l-I feet of water. As the flames reached the upper decks, they irpretirl so rapidly that the plunlts were burned up like so much paper, and those on board were driven overboard by the tire. . As is usual on such melancholy occasions, the women and children suffered most. It is sat there were between 300 and 400 passengers on board the Henry ('l:iy, I00 at least of \\ horn hive met with it lturriblc death. Fifty-ttvo bodies ltad been recovered. One ufthc passengcrssiates, that there were nearly one hundred sitting at the dining table in the lower ca- bin wlieu the alarm was given, and from the rapidity with tvlriclt the flamu s spread, and the fact that all the doors open- ed inwardly, he tliinlrs that hslfof those in the cabin could not have escaped. 'l‘lie incidents of the disaster are terrible and affecting. The women and children croudcd together on tlis after part of tltc vessel, without arty chance of escape, there being no boats present at the time, and it appears that the stee- mer was entirely deficient in this respect; the rapid spread of the flames, and the large numbers who were compelled to jump overboard, struggling in the water together; the anxious err-, deavours oftlrnse who eou swim to save their wives rind children, together with the screams of anguish which filled the air, presented a scene most heart-reading. One gentle- man saved his wife and nine children by swimming with them separately to the share, as they jumped overboard. Edward Cooper, is planter of Memphis, being an excellent swirnllicr, ‘saved several females. The New York express says :- “ One or two circumstances connected with this truly heart- reridiirg estastroplie. must not be forgotten. While the atria. trier Henry Clay was enveloped in names, and many of the unfortunate passengers were strugtrlirig in the water for life, two men left a sloop in their yawl boat, as it was at lrst sup- _ to aid in rescuing their fellow beings from a watery rave,liul instead of doing so, the heartless wrstr.-lies were observed to use the best oftheir time in ceiling the truulrs and boxes of the passengers. and plundering them of their contents. A large meeting was held at the Astor House, etv York, on Thursday last. when stringent resolutioiis were passed ces- demning the conduct oftlrose in charge ofthe Henry Claty,and demanding an investigation of the whole elair.
