Tbe proprietors of the Kteamboat Henry Clay publUb a Card, denying that their boat had been racing oh tbe day cf the calamity and calling for a mjupension of opinion. Suppose they get it wbet tbeuT What evidence can they possibly have to offset the united testimony of the passengers Will a previous agreement not to race, affect tbe -fart in the slightest degree? When rival boats start abreast from their wharves when officers re tendering upon the relative time of the twfr; when the boat-hands, remonstrated with by anxious passengers, reply simply that there is no danger, and do not reply that the! boats are not rarine when nasancrira are allowed to land at varione places, through apprehension of th result when these facts, we say, are so well established as they are, we are at aJoss to conceive ISow the owners are to muster the necessary proofs to overthrow them.

As we remarked yesterday, the evidence of tbe officers and bands is inadmissible, they being parties deeply in interest. The jaeengers certainly cannot help the business, for their testimony we have, and it goes qnite the other wsy. What nonsense then to talk of a suspension of opinion It cannot be suspended, in the face of tbe inevitable facts and presumptions I fore us. "'he owners may play their cards to tbe lat-t trump, without modify in public sentiment in the lead. The names of the three gentlemen appended to this card suggest another thought.

It is well ascertained that it has been the practice of the Henry Clay to race. Tbe owners have derived large profits from that portion of the community which prefers speed to security. They have drawn vealth from the peril to which they have exposed unconscious people, in the pursuit of their nefarious gains. Multitudes, on the that ll 1 1 1 1 1 if tllA VfttUpl am 1 IIO i i I i tl machinery or build, have chosen to travel upon it, prt ference to slower boats. None but the owners knew that the vestal was adapted to the speed they exacted from it and that what was-gained in time was lost in security.

The history of it, therefoie, down to the awful catastrophe ol "Wednesday, has been a history of crime. It was one long speculation in the lives of thousands, and the happiness, perhaps, of 'millions. And when the result came, it might seem" to be a spe cial design of providence, that the three specula-iators were present at the fearful scene. Messrs. Tiki.MAN and Coi.lv Ek, tbe reporters tell us, were" on board, and Mr.

Radford was passing, fortuitously, on another boat, when the fire occurred. They were sodden and involuntary jof the terror, and agony, and murder, tbir rate for riches had caused. Much M-if (rta rrYa.mr fir tVtAv ia artQtarslla tVtav will sever see. The incident on the river is but a fountain head, a radiating point of the grief that is flowing into desolate families all over the land-Hut what they were predestined to. see; and what they have heard and seen within the last three days, were enough, we might to teach them a lfe-Iong lesson.

What is all the mpney tloir fatal speculation has brought them, compared the misery it has cost Or how far would it so to alleviate the poverty they have inflicted on whom they have been dependent for the means of lite 7 ere public, opinion suspended, and these gentlemen, supposing them possessed, of ordinary feeling, left to their own recollections' and rellec-tiona, we can conceive their punishment to be beyond endurance. Hut common safety requires something more tangible and exemplary than this and if law furnishes an adequate punishment, it must be inflicted. Nothing less will allay the popular indignation and nothing less prevent the recurrence of such calamities. Rail vs. Steamer on Hudson.

The iron rail has. generally been successful in taking tbe bulk of travel from the river boats. The New-Haven Road triumphed over the Long Island Sound opposition. The travel on the Hudson this season seemed to be a most stubborn exception to the general rule. But it is daily becom- i i i mi7 morn and mora pvioeni mat even mis must.

yield to the saving of time, and safety of life on the railroad. It is but a question of one or two years. The deplorable (turning of the Henri Clay will tend to hasten th decision. But beyond this', there are causes at work to ra Iidly advance the popular preference for the railway especially- the through travel West. The certainty and comparative security of making the distance to Albany in little over half the time the saving of annoyances on the river boats, when crowded on the evening line, and the equally cheap fare, (taking the extras ol the boats into account.) are contributing to this result.

We judge from very recent experience both ways. To contrast the evening lines Going West you take the Rail at the Chambers-street station at 6 r. or, if you live far up town at the station 31st-stree at CJ IV by Express for Albany or Troy. Tbe road skirts the River the entire distance. You have all the advantages of the fresh breeie from the water, without the unwholesome admixture of steam and hot air from between decks.

In dry weather you may be somewhat annoyed by dust for 20 or 30 miles, but after leaving reek skill you cease to notice this. By 10J o'clock you are in Albany, and by 11, if you like, posting over the Mohawk road West. The boats leaving INew-i ork same hour would land their passenger, provided they get over the Castleton bar, in Albany when you would be near to, or at Bujfalo. Returning your experience is likely to be very different, unless you take the earliest train, 5 M. from Buffalo, to connect with the Hudson River Railroad Express, at 6 P.

M. Leaving Ni agara at or xJunalo at a. you are brought to Albany something short of 9 P. M. The mail PCUI VI tHC 11UU 9UU HUOU, la JUU JIUIA llllll Ol L1C Albany honestly tell you that his mail train just leaving ia rather a slow cocch, stopping on the way, and taking rive or six hours to New-York.

This turns "you to the steamboat wharf, whence, as you bad heard far up the Utica road, the Isaac Acwoi or some other first-class steamer departs on the arrival of the train. But casting around you find you are on a different craft a lighter to the splendid regular liner, hicb, is detained some eight or ten miles below. With fair luck, but no supper, by 10J or 11 o'ciock you are transferred to tbe DTctcton, and under way for New-York at a speed that lands you the City by 8 A. M. in the City by balf past 8 the landing of the boat consumes half an hour and by 9, you are tip town to a late breakfast, after fasting from your hasty plate of soup at Syracuse, the day before.

I The jcheap steamboat fare you had heard of, in- stead of 50 cents, turns out with the extras 50, the same you paid going up on the railroad. The through tickets generally sold at the West, for the fastest morning lines, embrace 50 cents on steamboat, instead of SI SO on the Rail from Albany Why this is done does not appear. It is tot for the saving to the traveler, for before he reaches a state-rsom on the boat, he is the additional dollar out of pocket But the worst of it is i the Lake boats do not generally connect with the earliest train (5 A. at Buffalo, and passengers sre cut off from the evening express by the Hudson Read from Ulbany. This might be changed.

It ought to be changed. We respectfully ask our Cleaveland and Detroit cotemporaries to call attention to the defect of the present arrangement. One word of the boat lines in connection with the late accident. Their owners may not hope to turn the effect of the influence of this occurrence, by pointing to Railroad disasters. These bear no comparison to the casualties to which the boats deliberately render themselves liable.

Moot of the accidents on land, terminate with the damage or destruction of the locomotive, tender, and possibly baggage cars, and loss of life to engineer, fireman. Ace. The first class passenger cars are seldom visited fatally. But if you would see a zineregularly charged with the most inflammable elements of destruction by tire, look through your splendid Hudson Rivet boat; the upper saloons of the frailest pine lumber, painted with ingredients that only need touch the fire, to set the whole fabric in a blaze and the lower deck, laden with every species of combustible merchandize, such as goods-lKJxes of pine, cabinet-ware, in part of same material, bales of wool, hemp, all continguousto the boilers, and crowded to the utmost capacity of the boat. One would suppose, to be sure, that while these are charged with much danger at the dead hours of the night, they might be guarded against at noon-day but alas we see in the burning of the ill fated Henry Clay, that with such combustibles all over the boat, immediate destruction is the inevitable consequence at all hours.

It is only a question of the number of lives sacrificed. The English Elections. The London 'Time predicts that in the year 1952, the whole Parliamentary election of England will be completed in one day, and the leading results published in the papers of the following morning. A wonder of the same sort we have already achieved, on a much larger scale, in Ameri. ca.

Our general election is held on the same day, from Maine to Mexico and enough of the results obtained by the evening of the day nfier, to determine the event pretty accurately. Recollerting that suff rage us is universal, whereas in England it is partial, the advantage we have over our transmarine neighbors of 1952 is quite decided. The returns of the parliamentary canvass are still dragging their low length along, in the columns of the London papers. They indicate tin-rnis-lakeably the defeat of the Ministry. Up to the day previous to the departure of the steamer, 1ST members had been returned for the Ministers 237 for the Liberals, and 57 for the Moderate Conservatives.

The most flattering estimates of the nor-oughs yet to be heard from, alter this proportion immaterially, and it may be taken for granted that the Opposition will outvote the Treasury Benches overwhelmingly pn tbe very first division. In view of this well ascertained state of facts, il is astounding to witness the cool assurance of Disraeli. At Newton-Paenel, Bucks, the other day, he assured his constituents that the Ministers were confident of an absolute majority' in the House; and that the measures they proposed for the benefit ol the agricultural interest were sure to be carried triumphantly. The Herald, Standard and other official and semi oflicial organs, talk in the same 'Ilercles with a disregard of facts and figures, as sovereign as if the Kaffir war, or an expedition to Ava were concerned. It is barely that the Tories count on making converts enough to afford them the reality of their brag.

They may reckon on effecting it by a lileral line of patronage. They may hope to exist a month or two longer, on account of the unfinished business they have on hand this Fishing broil among the rest. They may have auxiliaries in view from the ranks of the Peelites. -True, Sir Jamis Graham, in his Carlisle speeches, talked marvelousl like a Radical, and stated the grounds of his antagonism to the Ministry too forcibly to encourage hope of a coalition through his instrumentality. But the very fart of ultraism will, perhaps, serve to alienate tbe imre unbending of his fellow partisans, and drive them into the arms of the Ministers, who have shown a cheerful willingness to accommodate themselves to any views or anything that will help them to longevity.

Yet, the best pud likeliest of these contingencies is too improbable for any safe calculation arid cannot alter the opinion that the hours of Derbyites are numbered. Tbe result of the present canvass is more than oidmanly interesting to Americans. The disposition of Lord Dekhy to make trouble with our Government, renders him an unpleasant personage to deal with, especially where one of his hobbies, the is involved. It matters little whether his course in the business be dictated by a cr-iving for war, or the necessity of ma'uiJir political capital, or a desire to obtain concessions to Colonial traffic. Once rid of a negotiator, who opens the way to bis objects by an act of insolent violence, and we shall be able to treat with tuore.dignity ami to better advantage! The aspect of the returns may therefore be considered eminently satisfactory, as far as we may be consideredj as parties in interest.

The World's Fnir. Very active preparations are in progress for the grand exhibition of the World's Industry, ia this City, to be opened next May. The estimates for the building are in tbe hatids of Contractors, and the work will soon be commence 1. The furious by Kis6, has already been received and assurances hate been given from the countries of Europe of an. active interest and cooperation in forwarding tha project.

Active agents at all tl principal Europe, and letters of tbe most encouraging character, are received from them by every steame-. The French promises very large contributions, especially in specimens of Gobelin tapestry and Sevres porcelain, which will be even more complete than the collection in London. Tbe Sultan of Turkey proposes to send out a war-steamer laden with articles for the Exhibition. The project is now in excellent bands and will be pushed forward with the utmost energy aud efficiency. t-We noticed a crazy man in Broadway, yesterday, walking very rapidly with his eyes shut-Suddenly stopping, he wheeled about with one jump, and walked off backward no less rapidly than before.

Probably the poor fellow felt it his mission to illustrate the political career of Princs John, the Eceninf Post, and the Buffalo Plat-fbrmists in general. Backwards or forwards, they march with equal facility, never abating their speed for a moment. Keeping their eyes closed, however, is the smallest of the evidences of their in-sanity. Many folks are boldest when they shut their eyes to impending danger. The Albany Register has an odd way of advocating Whig principles and the election of Scott It consists chiefly in contending with and vilifying Whig papers with an anticipation apparently of getting up a pleasant little quarrel for private amusement.

Opinions may, of course; differ upon this as on all questions. The plau of the Register may be the very happiest for securing a Whig victory but it will, really, have to excuse ns from being a party to its method. We are in no humor for such experiments. The news of the late tremendous rsltv of voting men at Lundy's Lane, strikes terror the hearts of the whilom unterrined.n No fonder. Men naturally conform in their tastes and habits, to the character of their gods and heroes.

Humbly imitating their great exemplar, the Democracy faint in the mpming of the battle. Our reporter made a mistake ia saying' that Jaxss R. Whitixg, acted as Counsel for the owners of the Henry Clay, during the investigation before Coroner Lawkkxcs. Mr. Writik was the first to Tolunteer his semces to the Coroner, and conducted the proceedings on Wednesday afternoon, and a part of Thursday urging the importance of a full investigation, and doin all ia his power to elicit the truth.

THE HENRY CLAY CATASTROPHE. fc amaaBaBBaaWMBBaaaassw SEVEN MORE BODIES FOTJUD. COSTIXUITIOS OF THE COROXER'S IXQCIST Complete List of the Dead. BODIES NOT IDENTIFIED. FUNERAL OF UNCLAIMED BODIES.

IMERESTI.fl PARTICULARS. Another day has added a new chapter to the melancholy disaster. In the course of yesterday, even more bodies were recovered froai the wreck of the Henry Cloy, and it is believed that' others still remain beneath the water. The extent of the calamity, therefore, cannot yet be accurately ascertained. At an early hour yesterday morning operations were vigorously resumed at the wreck.

Workmen searched diligently with grappling irons, in all directions, and succeeded in recovering seven bodies, in addition to those already taken out. Another corpse was seen lying underneath the wreck, but could not be removed, until the superincumbent materials wee thrown off, and this could not be accomplished without the assistance of derricks. The bodies which were recovered were all identified. Several boats were occupied in the searcbi and cannon were fired upon the beach, in the hope that the bodies might thus be brought to the surface. Considerable impatience and indignation were expressed at the tardiness of the measures adopted for raising the wreck.

No derricks were brought upon the ground, and no attempt seems to have been made to free tbe bodies lying beneath the ruins of the "vessel. So far as we could ascertain, none of the owners of the Clay were upon the spot to direct the operations. The boilers and machinery are quite visible below the surface, and portions of the wheel houses are still left. The hull lies in a position readily accessible, ami the work of removing the ruins, when once commenced, will be a matter of small difficulty. In consequence of the manifest carelessness in regard to this matter, a number of gentlemen interested in the disaster, from the loss of friends, or otherwise, addressed the following requisition to the Coroner of Westchester County.

The paper was banded to the Acting Coroner at 2 o'clock yesterday by Messrs. Ei.moks Thompson and Edward W. Leggett, two of the signers. It was as follows July 30, 1S52 5 o'clock P. M.

To the Coroner of Westckrsttr County Sir Inasmuch as no derrick, or apparatus for raising the machinery, Ac, from the bodies under it, has to thii time arrived, we, the undersigned, parties who hare relations and friends missing, and supposed and known to be lest by the burning of the Htnry Clay, urgently request you to forthwith employ means to raise the machinery, from tbe bodies, now known to be under the name. (Signed.) Kluiote Thompson, John C. Hart, John C. Aehennn, litv Abijuh Ureeu, Geo. Holberton, N.

H. Van Warner, Jak. JMackfl, S.Hart. It. C.

Arnold, Pet-r Mitt, Edw. W. I.egfett, Henry The Coroner was understood to say that a derrick bad had been sent for, (to New-York) at 2 o'clock and he promised to give the matter his attention. At 7 o'clock, in the evening, the large floating derrick E. K.

Collins, which had been employed in this city on behalf of the owners of the Clay, arrived at the place of the wreck. The hour was then too far advanced for the commencement' of operations, and the work was postponed until this morning. Of the bodies observed under the wreck, lying beneath' the wheel, one was recognized as that of Mr. Isaac B. Sands, of No.

80 Stanton-street, in this City. The work of removal will be commenced at an early hour this morning. The authorities used every precaution to prevent any robbery of the bodies recovered, or of those which might be still about the wieck. Guards were placed by the Coroner Yonkrs, and at the wreck. At 11 o'clock, on Thursday night, thre men were observed in a boat adjaent to the wreck, but on being challenged, moved off; they reappeared at daylight, evidently with the intention of plundering and some men made their appearance on the beach, with a like purpose.

The bodies of those unclaimed were removed to Yonkers on iTbursday evening, and those found yesterday were 'laced in pine boxes before an'un-f nished house at Yonkers Station, on the new isttamboat dock, where the Inquest of yesterday was held. They were all identified with the exception of five, of which a description will be found below. These remains leing in an advanced stage of decomposition, and it becoming evident that they could not be longer preserved, the Coroner caused the following notice to be issued As it has become impossible to longer retain the hi dies ol' ihose lost from the Htnry Clay, on the 26th, tbe liineml ol'-FUcb as nave been recovered and not recognized, will take place this afternoon, at fi o'clock, Iniin the bouse on the new Steamboat Dock.

The'lnquest. THIRD DAY. Wm. M. Scrugham, acting for the Coroner, called over the names of the Jury, at 2 o'clock.

Tbe evidence taken during the day, related, chiefiy, to the identification of bodies. As to tbe bodies of Phikbe Ann Jordan ami Jacob L. Schoonmak'kb, Helah J. Jordan of In-tiianville deposed 1 am a farmer, and deputy sheriff of tbe county. I recognise the bodies named.

I'hikbe' Ann Jordan was my eldest daughter. Her death appears to have been caused by drowning, ybe was a passenger on board the Henry Clay. tot on board at Pouzhkeepsie. She was aged 16. Jacob S.

Schoonmakkr was mr brother-in-law. He resided in Jordanville, andtiis occupation was a merchant He was born at Shawanwak, Ulster County. He was also a passenger. His death was caused by drowning. Mr.

Jordan was deeply affected during the examination. He was not himself a passenger, and first heard through the public papers of the painful calamity which at once bereaved him of a beloved daughter, and his brother-in-law and his wife. l'he body of the latter has not been yet discovered. A permit was made out for the removal of the bodies. As to the body ot Abraham Crist.

David Crist affirmed I live in Walden, Orange County I am a farmer; Abraham Crist was mv brother; he a lawyer, having his office in New-York, and residirg in Brooklyn his age was -about 49 hs leaves a wife and 5 children the body I have seen here is his; the cause of death appears to have Ireen drowning his body was found in the stern of the Henry Clay, at 10 o'clock, A.M.; Mr. Crist's wife's sister and her husband, L. G. Sprino, went with him on board 1 do not know Mr. Spsing's age both Mr.

Spring and his wife were saved. George IVcller, sworn Lives i'i Walden I am related to Abraham Crist he was my brother-in-law I recognize his body here I saw him go on board the Henry Clay', on2Stb at Newoerg, at a few minutes past 12 o'clock, Mr. and Mrs. Spring, were with him; ninety odd passengers went on board at Newberg I thought the boat was crowded; a. lady and gentleman who purchased tickets objected to go on loard on that account, and I think they went by the Armenia I did not perceive that there was any strife mors than usual between the boats.

A permit was made out for Mr. David Crist and the body placed in a mahogany coffin, and taken away. After that of Hon. Mr. Allen, the loss of Mr.

Crist seems to have been most felt of any among the sufferers; aud many affecting remembrances of his worth as a man, and ability as a lawyer, were called rth among those who re cognized in the disfigured remains the friend whom they had so lately seen in the enjoyment of health and domestic happiness. As to the body of Katrina Chatillon, Jokn Chattllon deposed I was examined yesterday I have since found my lost child Katrina she was found this morning, near the wreck I am sure tbe body is hers; sbe was a passenger on the Henry CUy her age as three years. As to the body of Jacob J. Speed, Walter Hording sworn I reside in the City of New-York; 1 knew Mr. Spied when 1 lived in Baltimore he was a lawyer, lived ia Baltimore, and was about fifty years of age he was born in Maryland be was supposed to be a passenger in the Jicnry Clay 1 have no doubt of the identity of the fuody he appears to hava teen drowned, and to hare received a wound on the under-, stand his body was found two miles below, on this side of the river.

i Daniel Darcy sworn -I live at the Irving House, New-York; I saw Jacob J. Speed about 10 days ago, at the Irving House when he left New-York he said he was going to Ithsca he did not say when he would return -we have had letters for him since the 21th, and expected him at the Irving House every day from the clothes, and marks on the clothes, together with the appearance of the body, I have no doubt the body is that of John J. Speed. Wm. J.

Arkerman deposed that he saw the body of Mr. Speed taken from the water yesterday morning about 6 o'clock; be was about a mile beVbw the wreck two men took the body on shore; saw the name, J. Speed," on two handkerchiefs his death was caused by drowning there were no marks of riolence on his body when taken on shore. Mr. Nodine here said that the body of a lady tsken tip with that of Mr.

Speed, and thought to have lieen in company with him, was supposed by many persons to have been that of Mrs. Hill, of Ph'larJelphia. A permit to take the body of Mr. Speed was givrn to Mr. Wm.

Norris, of Baltimore. As to the body of F.lizabeth McAnallt, Ann Me Anally, sworn I live at No. 299 West Twenty-second-street Elizabeth McAnally was my sister she went from New-York to her uncle's, at Ron-doubt, four weeks ago last Monday, and was returning to New-York on board the Henry Clay I recognize the body and clothes she was drowned I have no doubt of the identity she was single, nd about 27 years of age; she was born in the County Tyrone, Ireland. A permit was given to witness to take the body, and on her stating she had not funds, Mr. Scr co-ham and M.

Whiting made up S5 to assist herin thebuiial. The Coroner inquired if there were other persons present who could identify any of the bodies remaining. In the absence of any, he adjourned the Jury for an hour, to allow time for taking a description of the bodies, snd preserving such trinkets and other articles found on the bodies as might lead to identification after burial. After a short time a man named Francis Mc-Cabe came forward to identify the body of Shanckry, nurse to Mr. Simons, of New-York.

Being sworn, he deposed I live at No. 30 I work in a soap-house I knew Elizabeth Shanckey she was a servant at John Simon's, of No. CT Eldridge-street, New-Yok; identified her from his knowledge of hef appearance, and by a pattern of her dress which he had with him I have no doubt it is her body she was born in Ireland, and is about 20 years of age she has a sister in New-York Mr. Kkrcman, soapboiler, of Catherine-street, father-in-law to Mr. Simons, sent me to identify the body; the body was taken up at 2 o'clock to-day.

At 6 o'clock the body of Hon. Stephen Allen was brought up to Yonkers. His remains were conveyed to the scene of the inquest with the deepest reverence and concern. The following articles were found upon his person A gold watch, hand stopped at 20 minutes past 3 o'clock a bunch of keys, pair of gold spectacles a pocket-book, containg some bank checks, 22 shillings in silver, and one cent a smaller book, containing an eyeglass, gold and diamond breast-pin, S3 1 in bank bills, clippings from a newspaper, containing some moral reflections, and a letter addressed to Mr. Qcincy." The jury re-assembled, when Auhar Reudc was Lives at Trov, Kennsselaer County knows Stephkn Allen is son-in-law; he lived in No.

1 Washington-square, New-York, of which City he was formerly Mayoi he was, I think, H3 years of age I have scrii his body, and recognized it I hive no doubt as to his identity the cause of death appears to have been drowning; he was a passenger on board the Henry Clay, on the 28th, and was drowned from her he was coming from Lebanon his body was found about an hour since, (5 o'clock,) about a mile North of the wreck no person was in company with Mr. Allen, as he left Mrs. Qcincy, his daughter, at Lebanon. A permit was immediately made out for the interment of the body, which was conveyed to New-York by the next train. The Coroner inquired from the Jury what hour it would be convenient for them to meet at to-day It was for him to fix an hour, but he wished to consult their convenience.

Being put to the vote, 5 o'clock P. to-day, was the time fixed upon, to which time the Jury stand adjourned. The Funeral of the Unrecognized. The hour having arrived for the funeral, as designated in the notice issued by the Coroner, Mr. Scrl'oham requested the Jury to act as pall-bearers, and invited those who wished to join in paying the last tribute of respect to the memory of the, unfortunate victims, to form in line, two by two.

In this manner a procession was formed and proceeded to the Reformed Dutch Church in Yonkers. where the funeral service was performed. Thence, the procession moved to the cemetery of St. John's, where a plot of ground had been presented by the Yestry of St. John's Church.

i The bodies were placed on a cart, and in the order prescribed, the melancholy procession moved slowly up the hill of Yonkers and while the panting locomotive bore us from this scene of desolating woe and bereavement, the solemn tones of the village-bell rung out for those so untimely and fearfully hurried into strange and unhonored graves.
