EARCHIKO FOE TUB DEAD,
; A eorrstpoadeut of tb'S. F. Call accom
panied the steamer Del Norte, io I he search
for the wreck of the Brother Jonathan. From
' bit report we take the followiug ;
PATTIHaolTs STATBsIBBT OF TBI WBIOK. '
: Every one being 'anxious to hear the story
rod Incidents of the wreck, Mr. Haztauorne
at once seat for third officer Patlersua and
the reroaluder of the crew who were eared
with biio. His statement is substantially
this: When the Brother Jonathan passed
Crescent City, about one p. u., the sea was
runaiug very blgb, and a severe gale blowing
from the northwest, so much so tbat the
' steamer was nuking no headway whatever,
and Captain De Wolf decided to put back to
Crescent City and re ami a until the weather
moderated. The jib was set up with the in
tention of bringing ber round, and when tbey
bad almost' succeeded tu doing so, ber bow
truck on a sunken rock with a crash tbat
sent everything reeling on deck. A few min
utes previous to Ibis, Patterson bad been re
lieved by the second officer, and had gone be
low, reaching bis bunk just as she struck,
- lie immediately tried to get on deck, but the
... door of bis caoiu bad been so much sprung
by tbe shock that it was with difficulty be
could open it. Just as be reached tbe .deck,
tbe vessel lilted from the rock and came down
with a terrific force, tearing a tremendous
bole in the bull just where the foremast
rested on the keel. The foremast then
dropped right through tbe bottom of the ves
sel until tbe roreyard lay across tbe deck. ' In
tbe meantime the Captain and first officer
were busy makiug efforts to lower boats.
But no boat could live in such a Bea, and tbe
terrified passeugers preferred remaining on
the ship's deck to facing death In a email
boat." Tbe bout tbat be (Patterson) was
placed io charge of was ordered to lt
down by tbe first mote. ' Tbe names of those
saved have already been published. in all,
eleven mm and tour whjie women, two
children, and a China woman and child. Tbe
seamen saved, and mentioned in the dispatch
s negroes, were Portuguese, among tbe crew
- of tbe whalers recently burned by the AM
nanjfoah, and tbis was. their first trip on the
Brother Jonathan, Tbey are powerlu I, clean
limbed fellows, and ars highly commended
for their coolness and bravery on tbis ooca
sion.- With incredible difficulty ' they sue
ceeded in pushing off from the steamer, and
bad not left, ber over ten or fifteen minutes
wbeo sbe fired two guns. . "'
SINKUQ OF TBI 8BIP, ' .
Her bow then began to sink slowly ; ber
stern high up in tbe air. Gradually tbe water
crept up, until a smn'l portion of .her stern
was seeu ; and then, with a sudden lurch, Bbe
disappeared tbe last thing seen being tbe
distresi flag at the mizzenuiast, as it quivered
out of sight forever.
A woman's STaTBMBNT. .
Her statement U interesting, as., notwlth
alandiog tbe sudden and alarmiug nature ot
tbe accident, sbe seems to have preserved ber
senses and powers of observation throughout
ghe was on tbe hurricane depk when tbe ves
sel struck, having just come from tbe lunch
table, at which very few' of the ladies were
present, on account of tbe rbughness of tbe
weather. Tbe Capjaln endeavored to get a
number of women into one of tbe boats, and
be was going Into one of them, when some
body caught her by 1 tbe arm, and she was
dragged away. Mrs, Scott tben took ber liu
tie boy, a brigbt-eyed lad of four or-five yars
of age, with ber shawl tied bim to ber body,
leaving her arms free, ana remains a lile-pre
server, jumped into tbe boat as it was lowered,
bruising herself very badly. From the boat
he saw the passengers all mora aft, as tbe
hip began to settle, and could scarcely retain
berselt as she saw bar deliberately sinK, witn
every soul on board.. It was almost miracu
lous bow even tbis boat was saved, on ao
count of the fearful sea rnnnlng at the time,
being kept afloat by bailing with an old bucket
and tbe bats or some ot toe men, rue women
were all chilled through, as they bad scarcely
any clothing on at the tinoo. She states tbat
A few minutes before tbe steamer struck, some
one (aid to the Captain that tbey would have
a pretty rough time. lie smiled, and said, "I
guess it will be all right ;" but the expression
of his lace cnangea a minute or two alter
wards. Sbe states tbat one of tbe boats low
ered contained women, all of whom disappear
ed instantaneously, wltn the exception ol Mrs.
Keenan, the person to whom she was engaged,
who succeeded in getting on tbe bottom of it
Sue bad nothing on but ber night-dress, and
clung desparately to the boat as it heaved to
and fro, until the ship, listing, struck ber on
tbe bead,' when, throwing up ber hands wild
lr. she sank. It is stated ibut sbe bad seven
thousand dollars worth of diamonds with ber.
Mrs. Scott also saw the other boat. ' There
was' ouly one voung man oo it, and be waj
soon washed on and perished.

Afterwards she saw him (Belden) standing
on tbe hurricane deck, with two lite-prejerv

witn bid ife's arm locked in. hi?, Opt,,: De

sony slight alleviation to tbe miseiy of bis
broken-hearted mother to know that ber son
died manfully, trying to aid bia fellow pas
engeri. , ;.
SOIBIB I FHORT Or DIATH.
It Is stated that Mrs. General Wright was
put in the boat saved, but afterwards, for
soma reason, removed oo deck again, witb
the hope, perhaps, that she might be placed
In a laiger Doat. .... ' ,
Some or tbe most heart-rending scenes oc
curred when the first boat was being lowered;
Tbe women were put in first, and one woman
olung to ber husband sobbing and crying un
til forced from bim. Tbe husband vainly
strove to seize ber dress as sbe went down,
and it was with the greatest difficulty tbat
tbey could be parted.
from all tbe different accounts, it appear!
tbat everything was done by tbe Captain and
officers which could be done, and there does
not appear to have been ny of that wild
disorganisation and recklessness wbicb so
often occurs at scenes like tbis, and makes
men blush for tbeir kind.
Tbe most striking feature throughout seems
to have been the extreme reluctance on tbe
part of tbe passengers to go into tbe boats.
Tbey bad literally to be thrown in.
It Is estimated tbat twenty or twenty-five
persons perished in each Of the small boats.
Tbis number, added' to the. nineteen .saved,
accounts for say seventy persons, . leaving
about on hundred and thirty who must have
gone down with tbe steamer.. '. v
