Details of a calamitous accident by which six ladles and one gentleman lost their lives aro given by the New York papers as fol- lows: It was on Tuesday morning last that the schooner Sarah Craig left Spruce street wharf iti Philadelphia carrying one of the merriest-parties that ever left tho old Quaker City. The party ha! beemmade Up for a trip of ten days and ihteridod to visit Cape May, Atlantic City, Long Branch, Bay Ridge and Coney Islaud. It coiisistad of the venerable wife of T, Hood Stevens, the President of an insurance compdnyj aged ilfty-flve years, her two daughters, Mrs. Cora B. Astcons and Miss Mamie Stevens; Miss EiriTna Merritt and her Bister, Rebecca Merritt; Miss Maud E.Rettew, Chester Clarko, the chief telegraph operator of the Pennsylvania Railway in Philndelphid; '£. W. JorJari, F, W. Halli Mar- cius Btilkley and Alfred Potter, With the exception of Mrs. Stevens, all were young people. Two other ladies.Were on board, but afterward loft the schooner owing to sea sickness. A colored cook arid a colored waiter assisted Capt. Edward Ci Rularid and his crew of two men in pro- viding for the comforts of the touriBts, With a gentlo sea and wild breezes the cruise WOB one long delight. Cape May and Atlantic City were both visited. The schooner left the latter place for Now York Friday morning at daybreak. All day the sky was blue, the water glassy arid the sun bright. 'me sky began to grow gray at about six o'clock. Tho dark Navesiuk Highlands were half a mile away. It looked like rain. The ladies and gentlemen sut down to suPDor on dock under the cool shaddw of the big white maimail and jib; Ju3t then a black cloud appeared in the sky and a few drops of rain splashed on the deck. Captain Ruland requested the ladies to go innt'the cabin, and they laughingly tripped down the compariiouway, followed by their four es- cortSj who were laden with chairs. The rest of the story can better be told in the-lan- guage-of Mr. Jordan* one of the survivors: \We had hardly got below,\\ he said, \when a puff of wind struck the vessel and Bhook her badly. Captain Rularid fastened his rudder wheel witha.pin and ran forward to let down the jib. Tho jib stujk fait arid couldn't be brought.down. Mr. Potter, Mri. Hall iml Mr. Bitlkley ran up on deck \to halp pull doivri the jib. Just then a second burst of wind struck the^yaohtandtmjew Mi'. Ovcttvorihe^sidok Th»Tse&>c»ni»!Bwirluigriato\ fchecabin, A sudden movemeritofthswatsr • threw ihe into tho comjjariidnwayund rweis idisagged but by Mr. Potter. The; ladies !iand Mr. Clark were behind and all means ;of >*.apo was cut off, as the deck eauk under the surface: The sea. washed over the vessel in perfect breakers. I saw all the riienbahgingon to the side, up to their waistsiu water. The- air was full,of hailstones. Mauyofthem were two inches indiatneter, One of them gave mo aMack eye. We had to hang on With all bur strength and kejp ourhsads down to keep (he hail from toarjng our eyes out. S'l\MyGodl Ihbpe to never live sucu.an hour again. We could hear the ladies crying pitifully inside aud beating their handsand neads against the walls. I would have given a thousand lives for an axe to cut a hole and let them out. Their prayers and moans al- most drove us insane: as we drifted along helpless to save them and waiting for death ourselves. But the thing that almost froze i«y heart was a white baud iand arm that were stretched out of a deadlight under the water. It was one of the: ypunj ladies appealing for help. I crawled over and took hold of the hand. It: clung to mine, but I could do nothing but cry. As the young lady's cries be:ame weaker t took a ring frorii her finger as gen- tly as I could. Then the hand and.arm sank back and I heard an awful wail. I have the , r ingin myipoeke't 1 . \We took orie of the fenders from the side of the schooner arid tried to break a hole ' through the vessel arid save bur friends, but' it was all in vain. Twice I was washed, into the \sea and twice I clambered on the wreck. In the distance we could see.two tugs and we tried to signal thenis At last the. yawl of pilot boat No. S appeared with two men in it They asked us to get into tbeir boat but we refusejj.for we could still hear the Indies begging for their lives inside of > the vessel. What we Wanted was an axe or a'tug to tow us into shallow water,where we could got at our friends. The ihate of our boat, Mr. Ferguson; was sent with the yawl to ask one of the tug-boats to help us. Then wehoisted a coat on an oar and waved it. Soon the little tug William Crampcame up to us. The Captain of the tug asked us to coirie on board, but we all said we could not leave the schooner while there were living per- sons in her; The Crariip threw us aline and we fastened it to tho traveler. We were towed for a few minutes toward shore and then the line tore away the travelenand a portion of the bulwark with it. The storm was so furious that the tug was driven off, but she managed to pick up orie of the stewards and one of the crew, who were in the wateri Then the big tug B. T. Haviland dashed up to us arid threw us a hawser. Captain Rularid tried to pass the linetous but was jerked into the sea. Then we were all dragged on board of the. Crairip , with lines. The sea was s5 high that the Captain of the Cramp asked to get under the lee of the big tug to keep from being swamped.

In Tattnall county, Go,, recently a negro named Samuel Prick loft his daughter, aged four years, with a negress named Mary JHol- lenbock, to bo cared for during his abssuce a t bis employment at a-turpentine, still in a ueighboriug county. Frick returned, and upon demanding bis child, Was met with so many evasive arid contradictory replies as to arouse asuspicion that something was wrong, A search of the premises resulted in finding one-half of the chud's body hidden in a Bar- rel which had originally contained salt pork. The pickle had not sufllcod to prevent decom- position, and the father was attracted to tho barrel by the unnatural stench arising from.it ., Other negroes in'the neighbor- hood now joined in the nearch, and when the discovery'was made there werefif- teenor twenty blades about the premises- The enraged father was ohthe (joint of brairi- irigthe wonian with an ax wiheri she fell on her krieesand said she would confess every-* thing if he would spare hero life. It was.de- cided to bear her storyj, but, as thie sequel proved.she would have fared better hadsh© maintained silence. Two days after the child was placed in ,her care a negro picnic was;given in the viciniiiy arid she was called on to prepare the dinner. Having no meat, andknowlng that she would get no mi'risy iuUsss slie served some, she- determined to kill the child and cook it» flesh, Being somewhat under the influence of liquor, the flendishuess of the idea hadirio hor- ror for he>i and she deliberately brained the, child with an axe, dismembered and boiled the limbs down into a stew with a heteroge- nous .collectionof vegetables. Whenitwos served the negroes remarked upon the pecu- liarity iof its flavor, but nevertheless aie> heartily. Severalof the riegroes now allege that they were nauseated by the iriess, bub none of theihwere made sei'iously ill. At the conclusion of the revolting recital, the fury of the-hearers was ungovernable, and- it was quicHy decided to brirtt heralivo» at the stake...
