Steamboat dccident.-The steamer Wind,or.
which left this port Monday morning. for New
Orleans, having on board about Two hundred nnd
hity tons Of freight, was sunk between three and
four o'clock the same afternoon, q, tho head Of
Rattle Snake Island, some twen,y.three miles
below this city. Though drawing ony four and
half feet water, she struck some invisible obs,a.
Gle in two falhom waier, which knocked hole
IN her bottom, forward of her boilers, and she
filled and sunk in two minutes after. in ,ix or
seven feet water. Tho water was over her main
deck amdshps, but tho two hn,ches were above
Il. The cargo consisted principally of Pork, Beef,
Lard Bacon, and small quantity of Flour. &c,
There were also on deck, number of cattle. mar,
of which were cast overheard and swan 10 the
island. TWAS the opinion of Capt. Boyce, from
whom we have tho above particulars, tbn, with
the aid OF one two steamboats,, the ca roo cnn
all be got out, and possibly the boat raised. al.
though considered very doubtful. The steamer
Huntsville was chartered, and started down 10 he,
assistance last evening. Tho Swiftsure No. q
stopped along side Of The Windsor, after the acci.
dent, and took off her passengers. The Windso,
was insured in Louisville for $1,000 and n.
irelshs is said to be oil insured in this ci,y.-M
