The babis of the ancond Wno-KOI i D-MA VC-TMOIOMT-JT And he docs thefoU lavrtmg mischief." The first rf these two rozuea bad the ordering of thiLgs on borI the ry Cla from the time she left Albany until hs mi on shore, and bauforcd Captain, hands, and owners. This ii.viil! rogue infused himself into eTery offefr and servant of the boat, and so inspired them with hi own rash and reckless temper, that esch of I hem one became distinct and fearless impersonation cf himself.

He looked through Worked with their hands, and spoke through their Jipa'. For, as often aa there passengers these infatuated imiiuevl to overflow-ig with the spirit of the 'cumin? mischief, and incurably confident that they were right, replied, There 'a no danger But, to measure the foil, strength of their delusion, we ii i ut go further back, and observe, that they bad been gradually and Ion? imbibing the de-lustre spirit of thia daring, dashing, demoniacal rofut-H'O' Danger Last year, their machinery was superior to the capacity of their boat for peedr This -J ear, their boat was altered, and adapted to the new race of the present summer. They ojened' the ean with loud boasting, and were soon answered' with lot id applause. Their greedy furnace called for more and more intense fires, and their engine arswered by more rapid strokes. Each day's erperirnce of impunity, tltnler increased rave them fresh praise and increased patronage while they grew gradually fearless of danger, and confident of still greater success.

From time to time, they measured their speed with the other racers On the river. At all tisnea, they measured their speed against time, with and did so reference to another and higher contest than that with the A rmenia or any other boat. Gradually they i bersn vain in the confidence of success, and intoxicated with the idea cf the unmeasured capacity, ar.d "he ur alterable good fortune of the Henry Clay. Their minds were set open to the demon-rogue No-Danger and he en'erd in and dwelt there, in perfect concealment from their own consciousness and therefore in perfect control of their feelings and actions. They could not possibly have any fear for thrm5elves, and therefore could not fail to smile at the fears, and scofTat the expostulations of the passengers.

The laws of science and art, which suggest rules of prudence to other men, failed to instruct the managers of this devoted The evil penins of mischief so totally poM.cd them, that they were doomed to meet destruction in the most shameful manner possible. In a clear, calm, tjitiet day a day when their boat "has been previously on tire when they had every adir oi.it ion and opportunity to observe the first of danger; when they might, with any de- cei.t pruvisioii, have extinguished the fire after it became known to the passengers when they inijht have saved all lives by turning' to the ahore as toon as the fire was proclaimed and even when the) might have avoided death by an oblique preach to the land, they were left to do their very worst, and to do it to the last moment of their pwer over thia dreadful instrument of foolhardy destruction of life and property. When the mischief was accomplished, the tuNi hoci't came suddenly into action, and took charge cf the wreck and he has ever since' leen saving, through the mouths of the owners, the ifficer, and their apologists IV'Ao would have thvvght These men are profoundly astonished at- the work they have accomplished. The sum and mi1-'. Mai.ce of all they have to say is this The fire yiot to htire burnt the lout.

The event does not fairly answer to the antecedents. The Inial was planned, and built, and furnished, and manned, and managed not tt We had done all that we ought, to avoid the turning. We are not to be blamed, because the boat burned with-" ovt any svffii ifnt teason. Who would have "thought who in his sober senses could have "thought of the boat thus bumirg without a inite In short, as there has been no human cr.relessnessr misconduct, it follows that Na-' ttirr must have got one of her screws loose just at that time, or the accident could not have hr.ppencd.V Le us tuppote that these' men have honestly and faithfully done their best, and that they are as capable as the men now in charge of the other day-boats on the Hudson what, then, is the obvious inference concerning the danger of passengers in tliete boats H'i'A every precaution taken, hnats 'trill l.urn. Thia is the inference.

Nominal can avoid it. Hut the owners of the other boats will probably object to this inference. If they do, then it becomes them to show that they da not daily make their trij between New-York aud Albany tinder the tame motices utul incitement to dangerous speed and dangerous economy of outlay and'eur-reut expense, which all men believe led to the dis- ttstcr of the Henry Clay. The burden of the complaint in the papers of last Saturday waa, that the Henry Clay was tacit. with and that this led to the accident." The captain and owners flatly deny this charge" and put themselves upon the proof.

Now, to us this seems net to be the true issue, or onl) a small part of the issue. The true and full issue ia this Have the day-boats between New-York and Albany engaged in a most dangerousand desperate race, both of speed and economy, against that iro horse, which snorts defiance at them along the eastern bank of the river, and says to then, as plainly as his horrid voice can say it, 41 Kill or be liiled?" That they are engaged in this conflict, none of the owners or conductors of the boats will deny. That they pursue the conflict with a dangerous economy and dangerous speed, they will probably not admit. Let us see Low tbe case stands. High spted and low' fare are certainly the two elemet.ts of the great competition.

For high speed and certainty of time the iron horse has the acknowledged advantage. For low fare the boat has the clear advant ase. The trial lies in brings ing. Joint the fare of the iron horse without a loss speed, and in bringing up the speed of the boat ithout raising its tare, bince the opening of the Tiver is April, progress has been claimed by both parties to the race. The iron horse has taken off forty1- per cent, of his fare and the boat has done much in raising her speed and economy.

The conflict still rages. The owners of the horse are tainexl minimum of fare which will give them the tnaitmktn of income by reason of increased patronage. The owners of the boat are experimenting on the lightest atid cheapest boat, which can I Kjk mstt njlwrfn 1 mine. m. mm r.

highest possible speed and the lowest possible fare. 'Wind, tide, fog and low water are the variable in-cidentsof all the boats; model, adaptation and kill oFofficers vary "the fortunes of different boats. Ho two trips are exactly the same. No man can wake a reliable time-table for his boat Hence au uigciu mouve iu a constant pressure on the capacity of the engine in almost every trip. Wfcej the Reindeer, or pie SiulJy, or any other Loat makes a trip five minutes shorter than any cue TSad before made, it is registered with due laudation from side to side of the continent.

Boat after boat is driven into the night lines or into thef water by the appearance of a swifter, lighter, cheaper, yet more powerful boat. The spirit of this race of all the boaU is diffused over the community. The people have become accustomed to railroad speed of forty to fifty liules aa hour and they are not alarmed at the aU tempts of the boats to make a speed of twenty-fire. How this fierce conflict is to end, is yet a ffrave question. The interests at stake are immense on each side, The men of the boat say, We can keep the fare so low and raise the speed LigU as to drive the iron-horse from.

Lis road." Aiid the men of the iron-horse say, We shall carry the peoplepand the contest is only a question of time. Time will decide. But, in the meanwhile, the danger to the public will be increased, ss iovg ss there is continuance of the ezperi merit to raise the speed and continue the cheapness of the steamboat. A Ward Additional. The trmjjtilar indefiniteness with which General A ft 1st.

ar.d his legate at Washington contrive to clothe their views, renders the correspondence, which the Senate is puzzling itself over, anything but lucid and satisfactory. We remarked yesterday that there had been no attempt made by the Mexican diplomats to clear up their positions, or to suggest any basis of an arrangement. Their plot has no catastrophe their fable no moral. You wade through wearisome denunciations of Ga rat, Hakoous and Lktchek, or adjurations of the warmest feelings of attachment and respect for the Government of the United States, bnt not a word to the point. Poverty and necessity have made thes fellows ss crafty as serpents.

Follow-' ing the law of national decay, finesse has taken mong them the place of courage, and become the rational viitiie. These are the fellows we have to deal with, and it takes downrightreatment to make any impression upon them, Much of the reactionary feeling that induces some good-natured people to look leniently upon the present posture of cur neighbor, is grounded on an entire misapprehension. It is not true that Mexico has expressed a willingness to have the United States or any other State, to undertake the enterprize. There is the strongest possible aversion to the admission of any foreign power to execute the work. The law passed on the 1 1th of May last expressly confined the competition to natives of Mexico.

It was quite obvious that no Mexican could furnish the capital required, without mortgaging his claims to outside capitalists. The law has therefore passed as a dead-letter. It was intended as a temporary extinguisher of the scheme. Even Ramirez, the foreign minister, one of the most! rabid opponents of the Gar at Grantt protested against the new act, as calculated to strip the Executive of all power in the premises. No sooner was the law passed, however, than two parties presented themselves as bidders one composed exclusively of natives, who, having notoriously no means of their cwn to fulfil their engagements, relied upon British capital and Col.

loo, who putting forth a decent show of Mexican essociatcs counted on the more favorable terms he ottered to secure the grant. Ramirez had sense enough to prefer the Sloo combination to the other, for the very reason that -its ofl'ers were doubly advantageous to the Republic. The native organisation relied insolently upon the letter of the act, ciid defied the Executive to adopt the other.cn any ground whatever. Nevertheless, the Si.oo contract was adopted, transmitted to Congress, and there rejected, simply, lecause Americans were partners in the business. It is perfectly clear, therefore, to any ordinary mind, that while the present popular temper exists in Mexico, and rules in the Legislature, no arrangement can be concluded in which the people or the Govern- ment of the United States are participants.

We do not care to inquire whether British iiifluer.ee helps to cherish tlris opposition or not. The burden of evidence tends to that conviction. It is enough to know, that the fulsome professions of the Executive mask a profoundly jealous feeling among the great body of the people that while they are tremblingly apprc-hetjshe of war, they are viciously resolute in pushing the aggravation to the verge of patient endurance and that a firm, unalterable determination on the part of our Government can alone attain these objects. We are confirmed all the more strcrgly in this idea by the perusal of a recent Lumber of the the Government organ in the City of Mexico. That paper, obvi- speaking by authority, shows that the Presi- uent has never pledged himself, implicitly or ex-p'icitly, to admit the United States in aid of the Tehuan'epec undertaking and cites the act of Congress prohibiting such an admission under any circumstances.

Unless thi3 act be rescinded, we shall be driven to the use of force, as the only available argument for certainly the fear of no sacrifice must shut us out from the speedy enjoyment of the advantages offered by the Isthmus. Crop Prospects. From nearly all sections of the Northwest and from the great Middle States the reports are favorable for the small Grain harvest. The Wheat crop proves unusually heavy, and of the soundest and best quality. Specimens of the new yield of Michigan have already been received at Detroit, and the papers speak of them and of the' general crop result, which theyjforeshadow, in the highest terms.

In regard to the greateand debt-paying staple of Cotton, the season has advanced to the month of August without the first serious note of a croaking character. The crop, however, is not so forward as last season, and the receipt of the first new bale at the South is yet to be reported. This, to a partial degree, increases the contingencies of Unseasonable weather, such as an early frost in the Fall Southern visitors to our watering-places report the planting as much heavier than last year, and the prospect fair for three and a quarter or three and a half millions bales. The summary manner in "which three millions bales have been disposed of by -the manufacturing districts of Europe and the Uni-tedStates, removes all apprehension of very low prices on account of quantity merely. Another very large crop may be wanted.

Part of it would not, probably, come amiss to the home mills if sent forward as early as September. t-JT There must be something powerfully stim ulating in Democracy. A common dirt -heap is nothing to it guano is orthless in comparison. What a rapidity of growth it has given to the fame and cualities of the Democratic candidate for the Pres. idency Two months ago, he was the least known of all the great men of the Republic.

To-day, from the application of this compofct alone, he is the embodiment of all the excellencies, the pink of all the perfections among living Varriors he is a lion among lambs. Two months ago, he was a quiet, clever citizen, living' as a candidate should, in a small white house to-day he is a Colossus, and the men across the State-line know all about him. Then, a few small boys alone, who had en-jnyed at him bands a modcrato candy attested the kindness of his heart now all the world admires his towering benevolence. Them his courage was alike unquestioned and unsuspected; now it is the theme of eloquent declamation, and unbounded enthusiasm fills immense congregations on hearing the original and astonishing announcement that Franklin Pierce, at Cher-ubusco, was the AcgibkaU of Eylau!" Let the great unknown men and the feeble little men among the sham Democracy take courage. A glorious future may await them, provided they have no history.

Let them look out for that. This Tammany compost is sure death on all bearing trees. E7 Grant that General Pierce is all that his friends claim him to be grant that his courage is unquestionable, his character unstained, his ability striking, his qualities sterling gold. How much is. there of this gold In dealing ith the precious -metals, quantity is a matter of some consequence.

Coroner's Inquest nt Tonkcrs. INTERESTING PARTICULARS. Lr The proceedings of yesterday, at the scene of the Clay's disaster, were more important than on the previous day. A large portion of the vessel was lifted out of the water, but no more bodies were recovered. The investigation before the Coroner's Jury at Yonkers was resumed and continued uatil a late We add full particulars of the inquest and some additional incidents.

The Coroner's Inquest at Yonkers. FIXTH DAY. The Coroner's investigation was resumed at 5J o'clock. yesterday afternoon, at the Hudson River railroad office, in the village of Yonkers. After the names of the Jury had been called over, Mr.

D. McMahon, of New-York, appeared on behalf the steamboat owners, and presented a communication to Coroner Lawrence, of which the following is a copy To the Cwrmrr and the Jttry ortrruj on the inqvett respecting the steamboat Henry Clay, at Yonkers. Gestlemex On behall of the owners and officers of tbe steamboat Henry Clay, for the purposes of the investigation of the truth, respecting this most lamentable occurrence, I would rcRpec'ti'ully request that all of the hands of the boat, and the officers and oumers, be called up and undergo a rigid examination, as to their knowledge of the facts surrounding this disaster. There is a Mr. Harkis.

of Burlington, who was a passenger on board of tbe boat, who will testify to what be knows concerning the matter. We will furnish the rsnjes of all the officers fur that purpose, if desired. We desire to conceal nothing. Respectfully, yours, D. McMAnON, Jr For boat and owners.

On Behalf of5 the Coroner, Counsellor Scrug-ham advised that the request be refused, and said it would be highly improper to allow men to testify on a Coroner's inquest who might, in the result, be charged with a crime. Coroner Lawrence finally decided that, when he anted any of the owners, officers or hands of the Clay to appear as witnesses or otherwise, he would send for them. A passer.gen-of the Clay was then called, and testified as follows Phinta's C. Wells was railed and sworn I am a Physician, and reside at No. 84 Clinton-street, Brooklyn I was a passenger on board tbe Henry on the 28th from Cozzen's Landing.

youTiotice anything particular about the management of the boat before arriving opposite Yonkers 1 Ansrtrrr I was not forward of the companion-way at any time tbe firemen and engineers were forward of that I saw an al.nndance of pieces of anthracite coal ceraping from the smokc-pipe, which landed on the brnrhe8 and stools on the hurricane-deck the pieces were much larger than I ever saw come from the smoke-pipe of a steamboat I examined tliom carefully, and many ol tVm were larger thai) peas; 1 was alone, and olien moved tny seat to get clear of the coal pieces they caine periodically 1 have nothing further to say In regard to this fact. Question Have you anything to say about small boats attached to the Clay Ansnrtr I looked for boats on the upper deck of the lay. while she was heading for the sht.re, but I could not find any I looked for them where they are usually kept, near the stern of the boat I examined the bow of the boat my means of escape was by the promenade deck the promenade deck on the boat was the entire length of the ateamer I was looking at the calamitous scene I saw no small boat on any part of the Clay there was only one place where a small boat could have txen, and that was on the larboard side of the boat, alt or 4 he house, which was envoioped ia flames there could have been no boat on tho Clay unless it was in this place that was burning rapidly whether the fire would conceal a boat from the eye the Jury can judge as well as I can when I passed the pilot house, it was on fire; I saw trunks thrown from the promenade dtck to tbe shore I stood aft of the wheel house when the alarm was given the first I saw was a rush of persons coining backwards I saw no person sustaining an etneial character on the boat to give directions on that deck at the time of the alarm, nor at any time I passed through lie tire on tbe larboard side of the boat, and the li aine strut I me when I looked back of me, I saw tbe f.re raging fiercely. ijutshon Where did you get off the boat Ansurr I got off from the starboard side of the boat's bow, and landed on the sand. Question Did jou fcee any of the hands or officers of the boat after ou got oil? A.

I did sir. 1 saw a young man, whom I suppose was tbe clerk of the boat. lie had bis coat off; was in the water, and rendering assistance to tbe passengers; I think he was the clerk, becaube I bought my tickets of him. To Mr. Williams, a Juror.

The alarm was given after passing the Forrext house how long tbe boat had been on fire before we were alarmed I know not Direct to the Coroner. I think the pilot had not time to turn the bow of tee boat up stream, because I think he was driven from his position by the liames I have travelled on steamboats at the speed of twenty-nix miles an hour; I think the Ciay was running from seventeen to twenty miles an hour the Clay was two hours running from Cozzens to Yonkers there were about two hundred passengers on the promenade deck. District-Attorney Wells I would submit to the Coroner whether the counsel employed by the steamboat owners (McMabon) has aright to come in and examine witnesucs during the investigation. Mr. Scrvgham said On behalf of the Coroner, and as his counsel, I advise him not to allow-counsel to come before this Jury, aiid examine witnesses for tho steam-Jioat owners.

The Coroner decided not to allow Coun-srllcr McM amok the privilege of acting before thia Jury. The application and decision was recorded on the minutes. ilr. McMahon Tnder this state of facts, I protest agaiiif-t any one, except the Coroner and Jury, to examine wstneses. as I believe there is no law for him to employ counsel.

The protest was entered on the minutes, and the following witness was Jomes F. De Prvtter sworn, says I reside at No. 915 Broadway, New-York I came on board of the Clay at Kewburg there was a great strife there among the runners of each boat to dispose of tickets, and they were sold at one shilling shortly after the boat left the dock 1 met Mr. Gocrlay, who said there had been a most exciting scene on board of the boat before I came on board there had been great excitement among the passengers, owing to tbe boats coming in contact while talking with we were joined by Hon. Stephkx Allen, who confirmed the statement made by Mr.

G. I then took a teat on the hurricane deck, bnt was obliged to move, ia consequence of the falling of the small cinders and pieces of coal soon after 1 went below on the saloon deck, on the larboard side I sat there reading, until' I heard the cry of fire the passengers were much startled, and I can only compare the scene to a bee-hive it was all contusion and excitement I went forward a short distance, and was assured by a person that appeared to belong to the boat, that the auminr vras on Jire, and there teas no dangtr my efforts were immediately directed to allay the excite ment, and I went to the ladies' saloon, and begged them to be calm, as our safety depended upon their being to 1 then turned around, and was proceeding forward; I met Stephen Allen, and he asked me, What are we to do he was calm, but evidently agitated ar.d excited 1 repeated. to hirn what I had said to the other passengers, That 1 was assured there was no danger while talking with Mr. Allen, 1 observed the moke rapidly increasing Mr. Allen having been sent ait, he was coming from the forward deck; I waa impressed with his manner, and for the first time thought there was danger; I then went to the stair-case lead i) to the hurricane deck, to see how matters were on opening the door, I found the passage rilled with -dense smoke and was prevented from ascending.

I fhut the ticor and soon met a handjof the boat near the ladies' saloon, and asked him In a low tone where the re was he answered in a like tone, the fire is below. At this time I began to thipk the fire was a serious one shortly after, a cry was around rne, the boat was sinking, and she appeared to be sinking from under me. It was at thia time, 1 presume, that she struck the shore. If norant of the fact of her having gone ashore, and seeing a person getting np on the hurricane dock, it occurred to me that it was best for me to do likewise. I made the first attempt, and not wishing to injure the blinds, I did not succeed the first time, but at the second attempt I put my toes in tbe slats and got up; when reaching this deck, I found the flames rising up above the pipe, so that I could not see tbe shore from where I stood, I took off one of my boots and uniaccd the other, took a chair in.

my hand and prepared to take tbe water at the proper time; at this moment Mr. Got ley came up to me and remarked, tbe only safe way to escape, was to go over the promenade deck to the bow at this time the deck was filled with smoke, and I could not, at that moment, decide whether it was expedient to do so, and Mr. G. and his friend left this was on the stern I remained there about wo minutes, during which time the wind had driven off the heavy smoke, and I saw a clear passage over it I would here remark that the larboard side of the boat was enveloped in'Mames: the starboard side was covered with smoke: I decided to run the deck, keeping the chair in my hand I went over it in my stocking feet without being burned severely I reached the extreme end of the promennd deck, and there saw a man pitching out baggage to the ahore there was no fire or smoke at this spot I was alone at this time the Pilot had left the pilot house I ought to have said that the first I knew the boat was ashore was when Mr. Goi xlat met me lsst, as stated by roe.

when I got to the end of the promenade deck I pat on my boots and descended to the lower dtck upon reaching the shore I walked around the baggage to find mine, but could not see it I then wetit bark to the deck, and looked under the hurricane to look for my baggage, but did not find it I then gave imp, andwtnt loihe bew, and threw myself over I reacted the shore without getting wet; up to this time I bad not the least doubt but ail of the passengers would saved; my first inquiry was for Mr. Allen; I looked and saw the passengers on the. stern of tbe boat fc.udd.ed toj ether, and leaping into the river from the starboard side. Qui stmt Did yon at any time see the engine-room. or know anything of the origin of the fire A.

1 did not 1 have no question that iT the officers of tit scat had ae their duty at the time of tit alarm tveru pasrntr kcrt teen saved. As ctfUtr gave mu snstnctkm; no oasts, planks or anything els mas dtnt t9 ata iktercued rassencers; I sate na on contacted tnti the fUay that appeared to aid or assist in saving the hves of the pasnrers, or to aid or counsel them nor were they informed at any jjb of the danger the vessel was in. The next witness a'lod was another gentleman, whs) was passer ger bosn! oftbe 13 fated Clay. JLn II. sworn, says: I reside at West Seventeenth-street I an a stork sad exchange broker I waa a passenger oa board of tbs Uenry Clay from Albany, Hh foe New-York-; ths Clay was a passenger steamboat plying between New-York and Albany short time before gettingon board of ths boat, I noticed efforts to get passengers to go oa board of the Clay the same thing was dons oa tbe part of the Armenia tbe Clav left Albany before her tune wbea the Armenia left her dock, tbe Clay was 1 i miles ahead of her tbs Clay reached Hudson In advance of the Arms nia, and the latter took the western channel and passed on without landing when we left Hudson dock I heard some one say, We will soon overhaul her anyhow;" the Clay seemed to be going very rapidly while I was oa the bow of the boat she seemed to bonud far-ward I could fee! it bound forward; I remarked the fact to a friend tbe Armenia reached Catskill first I heard a great deal of abuse among runners on the docks, respecting the interest of the two boats The Clay made her landing at Catskill, and was still behind the Armenia after the Clay had left the dock I heard one of her men say, We have beaten afteraU, we took twenty-seven passengers and they fifteen we rapidly proceeded down the river and.

soon -overhauled the Armenia the CUy was toward the east etmre, and the Armenia nearest to tbe western shore both boats moved side by side for several miles when the Clay first cams np to the Armenia I should think she wsa four or five hundred feet off; they finally came in collision, and a man was ready at the paddle-box of the Clay to throw out a fender before coming together at the time of the collision 1 beard two persons on the Clay denounce her officers one of them iA named John G. Coster, of "ew-York there was preat excitement among the males and females on the after d-ck one of the officers of the boat, whom I was told waa Mr. Collter, came aft. and a gentleman seized him by the arm and said, Tat tuf not le, Sir! it must be stopped, and I also said, in his hearing," It is a rascally shame," and he (Collter) quietly said, "there ia no danger the race, as I terra it, lasted a considerable length of time; the Clay seemed to.shore the Armenia towards the western shore; finally Armenia blew oil steam, beld np, and the Clay passed on down I don't think the Clay blew off any steam at the time of the collision the passengers were evidently relieved in mind when the boats separated we reached New burg several miles ahead of the Armenia before the collision, the most excitable man on board was one who acted as second or third captain, and sometimes "sold liquor at the bar; he seemed interested in the race, and intensely so; I was struck at the time I saw him, that he was desirous the Clay should keep ahead during the coll i-ion I saw Mr. Collter several times, quite cool ar.d calm, and no excitement in his face he was going from the pilot house to the main deck, and back again, frequently; after the collision I saw Captain Tallman, (as I was told I heard him say to gentleman, who asked him how he was, that he still felt very ill indeed he wes at this time standing near the starboard gangway of the hurricane deck, between' tbe paddle-box and the machinery while the boats were in collision we were all ordered to the larboard side of the hurricane deck this same young man who tends the bar gave the order some ten minutes after we had separated, I went to the bow of the boat, where I saw my companion seated this was Mr.

Henry Lawrence; and he told me he sat there for security, as he was afraid the boat would blow up the baggage was between him and the boiler at this time many of the passengers wrre talking about the race, as they termed it one gentlrman asked a decker why they pushed the Armenia so close to shore; his snswer was, "lie-canse we didn't want to tow her any lonjer;" after he collision I felt somewhat easier myself, and told this second or third Captain I was glad he had past her hia answer was, We could have got clear of her before, if you had kept to the larboard side when we reached Newburg, I witnessed the same scene of excitement among the runners as at other places one man cried out to another man, You had better go on board of the Henry Clay, for the Armenia don't get in till night a very Urge number of passengers came ou board here after leaving Newburg, I went down in the small cabin to get my dinner, but could not find a seat, and I concluded to po witliout my dinner nothing of interest occurred after this until we had reached opposite Washington place myself and Mr. Lawkence sat together, end I pointed out to him such residences as 1 knew on the East bank of the River we-were a short distance below the "'Forrest Castle" when I heard the alarm of fire given we rose instantly on our feet, and' sbnnly after (within a moment) some one say, There is no danger the fire is out we then took our seats again, in order to allay the excitement, we believing at this time that tbe ladies were unnecessarily alarmed we sat half a minute, when the smoke came up in volumes from the stair-case, and we were both satisfied the fire was serious. A diagram was here drawn with the pen and ink by Mr. Scbcgham, and witness pointed out where himself and friend stood, at the time the fire alarm was sounded. The Mi.oke was very dense, and when we arose from our seats, the passengers were scattering in all directions, tome aft and some forward witaiu a minute from the second alarm, it may be longer, the boat was gradually turning towards the shore the fire came up out of the vacancy in the deck where the walking bean Is placed with other machinery; tbe southerly breeze drove the flames and smoke to the larboard side of the boat after tbe boat struck I jumped from tbe hurricane to the main deck, and there saw men throwing baggage on to the beach I saw my own trunk and carpet-bag and threw them over myself the heat became intense and I jumped off; I saw nobody giving orders connected with the Clay I saw none of-he officers until I got ashore 1 believe if they had done their duty not a human eon I would have been lost I have been in danger on a British steamer, where I witnessed the presence of mind of the Captain, and direct his passengers what to do, but in this rase nothing of the kind was done I think Dr.

Tbe Latest from the Wreck. Half-past twelve o'clock, A.

31. At a late hour, last night, the entire mass of broken machinery, boilers and bed plates was removed from the wreck of the Clay, and placed upon the derrick. The workmen finally managed to run a heavy chain under the bottom of the wreck, aft of the wheels. The huge tackling apparatus was then attached, and the powerful operation of the der rick soon raised the stern from the bottom. The grappling irons and rakes of every description were brought into requisition, and the bottom was dragged for nearly two hours ithout finding any other bodies.

During this forenoon, additional cables will be placed under other parts of the shattered hull of the Clay, when it will be raised free and clear from the water, and the search for bodies be resumed. Many persons are still firm in their opinion that several bodies are yet lying buried in the mud beneath the remaining fragments of the craft and the wreckers say they brought up pieces of clothing while prosecuting their labors with the grapples. It as rumored last night that the body of another female had been found floating on the surface of the water, opposite Fort Washington Point. As our reporter left at midnight, he made repeated inquiries as to the body, but could obtain no correct information. Incideat.

The elegant gold lever watch that was reported to have been stolen from the body of the late Mrs. Bartlitt (wife of Prof. Baetlett), at the wreck, has been traced to honest hands. It appears the remains cf the unfortunate lady were taken from the water by a hand belongiag on board of steamer James Madison, who took the watch for safe keeping, and deposited the same with, a jeweller at Rondout, Ulster County, N. named G.

W. Dcnw. The necessary information concerning the property was received last evening by Coroner Lawrence, who forwarded the same to the relatives of deceased.

We noticed Lis hand and ana tied up, and foun that they were so badly burned as to prevent hW from pursuing his usual means of livelihood fori some- time.

Not only have the sick and wounded been tended with the greatest-care, but his house has been hospitably throw oper to all who were called to the scene of the caamit; Even his wearing apparel has not been eserv but was liberally distributed among those nee ding it.

In the midst of the farful scene which followed the running of the Jfcnry Clay on shore, a.nd while most of the females drawn together were giving vent to their distraction in unavailing exeli-mations, one lady wasf remarked, by Aid. Getty, as rendering every serf ice to the survivors and the bodies of the deceased ladies brought on shore composing the bodies, tnd pacing other attentions delicacy. On inquiry I she yras found to be Miss Jeannette McAdai of Yonkers.
