intelligence reached this city at an early hour yesterday
morning that the steamer Dean Kichmond, of the
People's line, running between this city and Athens,
had been run into by the steamer C. Yanderbilt, of the
Troy Steamboat Company, and sunk within twenty
minutes of the time of coii'd'ng. The news caused the
moat intense excitement, similar in Its oxhibitou to that
occasioned by the news brought to this city early one
8uuday morning, some months ago, of the explosion on
hoard the steamer St. John. It was known that the
Richmond was heavily freighted with passengers and
ths friends of those of whose presence on board they
had been advised, and others apprehensive that loved
ones daily expected home might be returning by this
route, anxiously sought the office of the Rsrjld, and
the office of the different companies, eager to learn all
'the particulars they couid of the disaster. The wildest
oort of rumors were alloat respecting the affair, all of
them, ?> ie generally the case at such tlmne,
of the intensely foar.al kind, and asserting a Ipfg
life nufflciontly great to excite in the blghost decree the
feare and anxieties of Interestod inquirer* Gradually
as the day advanced these rumors sett'ed *mt0 something
of * connected stoyy far less oxcitinjj than the earliei
'reports. It was thus learned, and subsequent inquiry
served only to corroborate this statement, that the Dean
Rio^fhpod left Anions about tep o'clock the previous
<"'* ?3 botri about one hundred
and fifty passengers. The night was clear, with a full
moon lighting the course of tlie vessel. The
Richmond proceeded on her way witbdpt fbCorruption

'pnasengers, who retired to their staterooms about PlgTcn
o'clock, untl! when Just beiow Iloodout, tho steamer

-towards the Richmond, Signals were at once sounded
ty each vessel, but, except trom the respective pilots, it

was not to occasion any chance in the course or
conductor either vessel In avoidance of a collision; on the
contrary, it Is said the Richmond sheered slightly soa?to

on the sLarbosvl side, about twenty feet aft of the bow,

staieraon^i, and, striking "the hull below the water line,
a tremendous hole iu her side. Tho violent
shock thus given both vessels, speedily aroused tho paskftBwrS'fin
each, who, scarcely wmiiog to attire themselves,
came rushing from their staterooms to learn tho
cause of the concussion, the women sbrioking
in agonined affright. At first it was not
known which vessel had sustained the greatest
damage, and (tic consternation was abotit equal
on both decks; but soon the rapidly gaining water gave
warning to those on the Richmond Hint rfhe was in a

8TATFMKNT OF THC DEAR RICHVOBP's PILOT. ,
- Mr. Judson Morey, pilot of tbe Dean Richmond, In
formed our reporter that he met tbe Vauderbtlt near
Ksopus Island, when the latter blew two whistles for the
Sean Richmond to go to the left. The second pilot of
the Dean Richmond blew two whistles in response,
which meant "all right." Then tbe Vanderbllt replied
-with one whistle, meaning go to the right The
-Riobmond was already going to the left and blew several
whistles, Indicating confusion, and then stopped
Tbe collision took place almost immediately after?tbe

Both. Ete uners were cost of and abre.st of Esopus

Sl John and Hero. The Drew, rood after the collision,
took off the lican Richmond's passenger*. conveying

unken vessel had three hundred tons of butter and
cheese on board, and w-?s furnished In magnificent
style, but it la expected that almost all the furniture
srill be saved. It s^a* thought, late yesterday afternoon,

One waiter, named John Manning, and the cook of the
ate irnor are reported musing, but the oflWrs and others
on the wieck and who were on board of the boat at tho
time ef the acctden t, say that none of the passengers
were lost.
RAVTiro the CARGO.
A great lot of floating artio ea. such as trunks, valises,
bedding. Ac., have been picked up by boats hired for
that purpos". and from early morning thoee present at
the wreck were engaged In taking from the staterooms
bonnets, cloaks, books, packages and otlisr miscellaneous
articles and placing them on board a schooner, where
they will be taken chargo or uni t riamina ny ine own?rs.
Where the wreck now llee there le bnt thirty feet of
water, and It le hoped from the number of boats and
schoonere employed alxiut her that n great deal of the
cargo and passenger*' baggage will he saved.
Another vers,on of the case is that after the first
whistle the Dean sheered, and not beta; able to recover
ber<elf, therefore gave four whist lew to notify the
Vaaderbllt that she could not change her coarse, and
ehe then slowed and stopped and rung the bell as a s ga
for the Vanderbilt to back and rave a collision. Tbo
latter did ao, but in euch a manner an to etrlke the
Kichsaoad with terrific force on her etarboerd bow.
Various etorios are afloat relative to the cause of the
oilision. The following staieraen'a have been made by
passengers in whose veracity reliance may be placed:?

I went up on the Dean Richmond on Wednesday, and
was ao fearfully aunnyed with the mor<|ulioea in my
.state room that on my return 1 chanced and got a bridal
room, the very forward room 01 tbe I oat, and opened
my window to let in the freeb air. I moved from room
} JO to the front room to tbe bow, end soon after sent a
olored man to fetch me some water from my other
room. I then went to the bow of the boat and commenced
smoking?this was about twenty minutes to one
o'clock thin morning.
I was about the only passenger on deck at this tlm*,
and could catch a faint glimmer of some light nearlv
half a mile off. Thlt, as it afterwards appeared was the
light of the Vanderbilt ou.ntng down the river. 1
watched her clo?e y and saw ehe was coming in a straight
line for our boat, but I thought she woald turn olT, unless
the parties on board were ael-ep. She did not.
however,' do mi until, wbsn wltbin fifty yards or each
other, one of the boat* blew e whittle, and then both
turned sharp, but In the same direction?to the left?
towards tb? New York shore. 1 raw them approach
towards each other and when within fifteen yards
of the Vanderbtit, knowini the <0lli?,on was inevltable
I ran for my friends to get them up, end routed
all the people I coeid, and told them to get up es the
beat* were going to strike. I then ran towards the
bow, and was about half-way, near tho engine boas-, on
the first saloon, wh?o the crash came?and e<irh a crath

Tbe two boata then stuck fast in each other and remained
eo until the t)?an began to sink - when the stare

then tbe two steamer* get looan and tbe Dean Richmond
went dowa.

HTUtKMBNT OF VKANt W. LBVIFS.
The Dean Kichuiood started from Atben* at ten
o'clock last night, with about one hundred and flfiv passengers
on board, and, according to the statements of
the deck band* of the boat, the heaviest lretght that has
been transported on this line during the season. I bad
two children, my little brother and sister, in mv care,
aud these 1 placed in a stateroom on the second deck
(above the main deck of the vessel), find ng for myself
a berth in the gentlemen's cabin, in the hold.
I retired to iny berth about a quarter after
eleven. 1 laid awake for about half an hour, and it
appeared lo me that I had been sleeping for about an
uour and a half longer, when 1 heart a terrific crash,
accompau od with a severe grating sound which aroused
me. Ileaped out from my berth with only pantaloons
and shirt on, and vaguely comprehending tbe cause of
tho sounds, rushed ic the compnoionway, Imi decided to
return to mv berth for the rest of my clothing As 1
stepped Id to tbe cabin ou my way back I found tip* iloor
covered with water to the depth of about half a foot.
Beside my iierth I found two men sleeping soundly and
snoring loudly. I kicked and aroused (he men and then
tetnog my clothing, ran up to toe room of my sister
and brother, aroused the children and took them by the
band. At this timo thero was greH< commotion on
board. Women and men were running hither aud
tbi'.ber, shrieking loudly and addiug to the alarm by
their excitement, and there was a great noise of feet
hurrying to and fro overhead. I asked one of the
"hands," who was pass'ng, how I could get off the boat,
and he told me to go to tbe bow. I ran there,
but found -o treat a crowd of horses and pilot
of freight that I could not get out. I then hurried back
and found that tbe water was flowing up on
the nialo deck. I ran up stairs to the saloon and running
forward tried the doors leading to tho upper deck,
but found that they were locked and. thereforo, I could
not reach the how in that way. The people on this
deck were wild wUh consternation and were raging about
utterly unconscious of tbeir acts and incapable of lak
inC any measure* ior ineir preservation. i? runmug
back through all this contusion toward* the stern ot the
boat, I saw through tho glass at the top of a stateroom
do >r, the light on the steamer Vanderhilt, which had
approached our boat. I immediately broke opon the
door of the stateroom, broko -the window
and handed the children out to the deck bands of the
Vanderhilt, who worked assiduously in preserving lifts,
after saving the children 1 returned to the Richmond
and assisted several ladies through the window to the
deck of the Vanderhilt A crown of male passengers
who stood on the Dean Richmond passed the ladles
hastily te uib Vanuerbllt, The deck bands of the Rich,
mord ran on the Or.it alarm, and thought of nothing but
their own safety, but the espurin and officers of the boat
gallantly discharged the many onerofis duties devolving
' on them at such a time. The colored woman who
bad charge of tho ladies' cabin also acted bravely,
i and by her coolness succeeded in quieting the wild fears
of manv who seemed Inclined to leap ovorboard under
the excitement of the occasion. Two schooners which
were passing hftvd to hear the scene of the accident,
and lowering their boats succeeded in taking off a number
of passengers from the Richmond. It was reported
in my hearing that the bead waiter and another employ,'
on the lint wero missing, but no dofioite account could
I he learned of the uumber of casualties. While tbis
work of rescuing tho passenger* was going on,
the vessel was rapidly sinking, and in t*entv minutes
I after 1 was aroused from my berth tbe Richmond had
i entirely gone down. The vessel was struck on the starboard
side, about twenty feet from the how. and was cut
through her decks and hull below the water line, crushing
her timbers so effectually that her sinking was inevitable.

Another Aoeall*;*?1SUUeinentn of l'aaarngera
on Hoard (Ne Vunderbill.
***" TR6T, fept -0, 1807.
Tbe city was startled at a very early hour this morning
bv the announcement that a disastrous collision hAd
occurred at 12:00 this A. M., on the Hudson, between
the two freight and passenger steamers Dean Richmond
and Cornelius Vanderhilt, and that It bad boen at
tended with loss of life, which latter event at this
writing (3:30 P. M.) eeoras quite probable, although
do ono has verilled the bblief. The Vanderhilt
loft tbis city (or the city of New York at the
usual hour last eveuing, ami at half-past twelve
o'clock collided with tno Richmond at a point about
half a tnile below Koopue Island, Just above Hyde Park,
and near Pougbkeepste. The Vanderhilt. it is stated
with great unanimity by the passengers who have arrived
here in her, wag proceeding on her direct and
proper eastern course up the river, making for the eastern
line of Esopvs Island. At this moment tbe Richmond
rounded tbe southern point of tho Is
land from tbe west^ but falle^ in some unaccountable
manner to keep her course properly
but steered directly across tbe river and immediately in
front of tbe Vanderbllt. At this juncture the two steamers
were sufficiently far apart, there bo.nit a bright
moon, ahd evefyvhjne in qpqn view, so that the pilot or
the YAftderbllt was enabled to sound his steam whistle
to alaTm'tne pilot and other officers of the Richmond,
and when the collision took place tbe englnog of
tbe Vanderbllt had been reversed, and that steamer
had already retroceded several lengths, without,
however, averting tbe Immediately subsequent
calamity. Several gentlemen passengers on the Vanderbllt
had round time between the blowing of the whistle
and tbe collision to reach the dec* and make Inquiries
as to "what was up.*' Tbe Richmond made qo response,
but ran directly upon the bow of tbe Vanderbllt, and was
vory nearly cut in two at tbe forward quarter of
the larboard side, aud I am reliably Informed
that the bow of tbe Vanderbllt penetrated
the colliding steamer about forty feet, which
resulted in tbe Richmond's being kept from instantly
siuWing, which she at once did when abandoned to her
fate by the Vandorbilt. When the proportions of tbe
accident were developed the greatest consternation
seized upon both the officers and passengers of the illboded
Richmond, tbe terror and alarm continuing until
they were transferred, through the agency or the Vanderbllt,
to tbe consort steamer Daniel Drow, passing by
en route for New York.
It is officially related that Captain Teson, commanding
th" Vanderbllt, not only successfully allayed tne fears
of his own passengers, but by bis coolness and resolution
did nearly all that was done to pretcut the calamity
from being far moro serious than it was. Among tbo
Incidents I may mention that ten of tho crow of the
Vanderbllt at tbe time of the accident were sleeping in
tbo forecastle, and being thus confined were uuabio to
extricate themselves. They were directed to remain
quiet, and told that they would be relieved
at the earlieet moment, it not hoinir known
how many of them were kilted, wedged a* they werbetween
the debris of the two bnata. They were all
subsequently taken out alive, and only one of them injured
and that bo slightly that be is about the eitv today.
Ae before Intimated of the withdrawal of the
prow of the Vanderbill from the Richmond, the latter
vese?l instantly aunk In sixteen fathoms of water, with
an immense and valuable freight, iucludtng two hundred
and Any tons of cbeese.
rbe injuries to the Vaaderbllt were somewhat extensive
but not serious, owing to her having water tight
compartments. From eight to ten foot of her upper
workt have been carried awav and hrr bull injured in
the forward part. Hne arrived here thii morning in a
leaky condition and wtil return to New York tor ropalre.
The Washington volunteer steam Are engine pumped her
out to-day, and her freight has been all safely removed.
The R chmond was comparatively a new boat, having
been built four years ago, at a cost ot $730,000. Up to
the withdrawal of the Vantlerbilt, a few days since, she
waa the consort of the Richmond on the Athens routo.
A meeting of the passengers waa held on board the
Vanderbill tbie morning, Hannibal Green, of thie city,
a passenger, presiding. 1 be following exculpatory resolutions
were adopted:?
Whereas, an unfortunate collision occurred last evening
between the st"amers C. Vanderbill and Dean It cn-pord,
by which the Richmond was sunk and the VanderMIt sertooaly
Injured, and the lives of the passengers of both boats
very much endangered: the circumstance refecting great
skill ?nd eillcicucv on the p*ct of the officers and i row of
the Vanderbill. Now, therefore, lie It
Reae'ved. That the thanks of the passengers of the atomer
Vanderbllt are eminently due to Captain Krark Tc>on
and his office re for the cool, prompt and efficient manner In
wh oh. under the trying clreumsunoes. they managed the
Vandarbllt, and for ineir humane conduct toward the passenger*
of the Richmond tn saving them from the wreck
. and trans erring them to the Drew.
Resolved, I bat the collision aforeaaid oertirred In eoraequence
of the neglect of the officers of the Kle.hmond. and
that the officers of the Vanderbill did all In their power to
prevent such collision.
