Halifax,- received last night, state that
none of the Atlantic's cargo Lad floated,

steamer's hull is not broken. The peo

fated steamer crowded the office of the
White Star Line Steamers, hoping to
learn the names of the survivers, but as
no list had been received no information
could be given them. The terrible dis

tertain no doubt of the amount needed

Says. The subscription last niht was
incieastd to something over $8,000, and
only a little more liberality on the part
of our citizens will justify the Execu
tive Committee in going lorward with
the beautiful plans that, have been
drawn up. It i3 certain that our citi
zens intend that the Fair shall beheld
next fall, and that at Raleigh. Several
of the speakers thought tnat the peo
pie ot 'Raleigh had been censured too
heavily for the failure to raise $10,000 ;
the subscription already was most libe
ral, and praise should be given instead
of ccn&ure. But stiil they 'earnestly
hvirv-rl the 'Committee would receive "all
the support they needed to go lorward
with the work.
The improvements contemplated will
cost but little less than $30,000 ; t lie
proceeds ' of the sale of toe old Fair
Grounds, after liquidating the pre.-ent
indebtedness ot the Society, will leave
some $6,000 to operate upon, and with
this and the asked-for subscription
from Raleigh, the Committee is willing
to go ahead and make the proposed
improvements, believing that , by out
side subscriptions and other means the
remaining amount needed can be ob
tained. .
On motion, two special Committees
were anoointed to endeavor to raise the
remaining eighteen hundred dollars

anxious to go to work, and not one day

accurate information as
localities where gold,silver,iron, copper,
&c, are to be found, and the adaptation
of the different sections to the various

Irom this map can be gathered a
thorough knowledge of the iesotrces of

Besides the man. the Professor will
send a' number ol articles ol the growth

the lact that the rare advantages wl.ioh

no little credit for his arduous labors to
make our State take that high rank to
which she is entitled, and in this work
he should receive the assistance and
encouragement of all who have any
State piide. The model from which

Halifax, N. S., April 2. Only three
or four cabin passengers were saved
from the wreck of the Atlantic, one
Englishman and two or three French
men. Only one lady passenger attempted
to save herself ; she was frozen to death
in the rigging and fell into the water.
The Purser is among the lost. Some ol
the passengers arrived in this city to
day, and gave horrowing details ot tue
calamity. The names ot officers or pas
sengers'saved are not known as yet.
Relief steamers are expected up at two
o'clock.
The Atlantic had eight hundred and
fifty steerage passengers and thirty
saloon. There had been two births
during, the voyage." The crew numbered
one hundred and forty two, and there
were fourteen "stowaways" discovered.
Three hundred in all were saved out of
the total number, of one thousand and
thirty-eight.
There is nothing in the shape ot
documents sayed from the wreck. A
list of passengers will be obtained, if
possible, upon the return of steamers

The ship had fallen over. The steerage

out of it. Oar enly chance to escape
was by the ports. Numbers of men,
probably twenty, got out through the

drowned while trying to reach the ports.

The following is. the Captain's state
ment : " We sailed from Liverpool
March 20th. Durmg the first ' part of
the passage wo had favorable weather
and easterly winds. On the 24th, 25th
and 26th we experienced heavy south
west and westerly. gales, which brought
the sb'p down to one hundred and
norliii-wi miles a dav. On the 31st of
March, the Engineei s report suowid

the ship steaming only eight knots per
hour. 1 considered the risk too great
to push on as we might find ourselves,
in the event of a gale.shut out troin any
port ol supply, and so decided to bear
up for Halifax. At oue p.m. on the 31st,
Sanibro Island was at a distantance ot
170 miles, the ship's speed varying lrom
8 to 12 knots per hour, wind south with
rain, which veered to westward, at o
o'clock, p. ni. with clear weathter. At

midnight 1 jduged me ,suip 10 nave
made 122 miles, which would place her
48 miles south of Sambro, and I then
left the deck, and went into the cha"it
room, leaving orders above to look out,
jpid to let me know if they saw any
thing, and to call me at. 3 a. ni., intend
ing then to put the ship's head
to southward, and await daylight. My
first notification of the catastrophe was
the striking ot the ship on Marra Island,
and remaining fast, the sea immediately
swept away all the port boats. The
officers went to their stations and com
menced clearing away the weather boat?,
and rockets were fired by the second
officer. Before the boats could be
cleared, only ten minutes having elapsed,
the ship keeled heavily to the port, ren
dering the starboard boats useless.
Seeing that no help could be got from
the boats, I got the passengars into
rigging and outside of the rails, and
encouraged them to go forward where
the ship was highest, and less exposed
to trie water. The third officer, Mr.
Brady, Quartermasters Owens and
Speakman, by this time having
established communication with the
oat-lying rocks about forty yards dis
tant, by means of a line, got four otlnr
lines to the rock along which
about two hundred people
pe ple passed. Between the rock and
uic sh.-re was a passage one uunoreu
yards wide. The rope was successfully
passed acios3 tui, oy bich n eans
