THE HORBOB OF THAT WUUJOrL'Lltt. The water, thickly covered with the grease and filth of the machinery, was about ten feet below the level of the deck where I stood. Floating in it, face dowawartl, wcrt thw dt*d roco, toe backs of the heads and fboalders of two of them and the whole naked body of the third visible. AU were swollen to a horrible siae.
Further aft was a third corpse much smaller. This was a woman. It is sol picture todwfll upon, and! hurried away down the companion of the main saloon. Arrived at the bottom a seen* burst upon me such as I have read about often, but never seen. From end to end the saloon was waist deep in wreckage. The furnitare waa smashed into fragments, panels broken in, cushions, croceery, glsss, fragments of the saloon racks and debris of all kinds littered the floor. The tables were still fixed. Upon them and over the wreckstrewn floor were scattered packages and trunks.
THE WBBCKtftS AT WORK.
The saloon resounded with the crash of axes and the shouts and curs»» v» men. At the moment of my entrance at least thirty wreckeis were frantically engaged in pillage and plunder. They had cut square holes through the thick floor of the saloon into the under deck. The water stood within a few inches of the floor. Into these holes the men were thrusting long boathooks and dragging the floating trunks to the apertures. "Strange fishing this," I said to one of the anglers. "Ah! you're right and we get some strange fish on the hook new and then," was the reply, the meaning of which waa horribly evident As the trucks rose through the holes they were seized, hoisted out and tho lids smashed off with the axe. Then, in less time then it takes to write it, a dozen ragerhands snatchcd out the contents. All ciotbing was flung up through the shattered skylight to the gang on deck, and by them cast over the side into the boats. It was K#

to witness the tansacking of theie trunks. Clothes, boots, articles of toil«t books, letters, music, children's shoes, cigars, photographs—in short, the hundred articles which may be imagined as composing the effects of thrifty people leaving their native country for another home. Whatever was of value was passed up, the rest flung aside among the litter and trampled under foot It wat a scene for an artist's pencil rather than a peporter's pen—this long wreck-strewn room, thronged w|th these huge men in their sou'westers and sea-boots, sheutiug, swearing, smashing. Many of them were drunk for the moment a bottle of wine or spirits was found the deck was knocked cffaniLthe aniritA «*~»«*vrctrwTad arranged on the deck dteUaed for the cellars of these gentlemen, two-thirds of whom do doubt will be found drunk for days together#^
Til FASCINATION OF TA IS 8CBXS in the saloon was irresistible, and I stood watching it for hours together in silent wonder. My comrade of the London Illustrated News, who had

Aoeompanied by a gentleman of Harwich, who waa of our party, I now made the tour of the staterooms leading into the main saloon, but as there were only three first-olass passengers on the Deutschland, all gentlemen, we did not see anything but empty berths and rooms (those occupied by the three passengers having, of course, been ransacked by our busy fHends, the buccaneers) until wo came to one far aft, on the port side, where we founcLeomething we did not expect My comrade had pushed oben tho door and stepped into the stateroom, when he suddenly jumped back with an oxclaftition of horror.

avack men, "Finally wo iudneed a few of them to assist our own erewin -what tho called "a job that didn't pay,5* and the ghastly business was done. The first body got oat of the engine mom Wis recognised by tho ddrd olleor at that of Mr. Grossman, the mining ftrat class passenger. All were bruised and dinfigored, after death* tio doubt, by Washing abomt among the wreckage in tho ship.
THE SHACKS JSOW AU. HADE (RTF, their crews, no doubt, ohuckliog over our discomfiture. There must have been at least fifty men oa board the steamer from time to time during the day. We were ten, all told. No doubt much of tho plunder from the derelict vessel cannot be recovered, but as the names of some of the vessels were taken, probably some of it will be brought in as salvage. It is scarcely probable that much booty of value was taken from the baggage of the passengers, the gaeat majority of whom were in the steerage. I could not detect any stealthy pocketing going on, but I am free to confess that 1 did not watch very closely. It was not ray business, and moreover did not car© to have ai axe thrown at my head or to be pitched overboard. Besides, if a vessel is derolict at sea and there is no authorized person in charge ot her, she and everything in her is at the mercy of any one who chooses to go on board. So our rough and ready buccaneers had as much right on the Deutschland as we, The cargo itself neither they nor we could g|j,#t without divers.

had now set in and the water was fast rising within and around tbe wreck the last smack was hoisting her headsails as our anchor came up. Wind and sea were rising and tbe breakers were sweeping over our figurehead as we steamed away.with our sad freight nothing could exceed the vast and dreary desolation of the scene. For a few moments wo saw the masts and the gjeat black funnel, tall and gaunt* against the Iwid sky, and then, almost suddenly, tho night fell and jblott-ad the Deutschland from our sight
US. ADOI.PH BBttMANW'd JUBBATIVE. Mr. Adolph Hermann, of Cincinnati, furnishes the following interesting .story:'
As soen as the tide rose the foremast sails wore set, in the hope that the ship might g#t oiT, and part ol the cargo, consisting of wine, indigo, &c., was thrown overboard. These efforts, however, proving unavailing, we were ordered, about daylight, to go to the pumps, at which we took our tarns, but our combined exertions were not sufficient to get her across, tho sand bank, although she got easier and did not bump quite so much. Our hopes were raiaed by the sight of a steamer and a sailing ship in the distance, but after watching them for a shorl time our h« arts sank as thay passed bevond the reach of our gsze. We could not fire our cannon, it having become rusty Jr*.
M. tho tide again rose, and for three or four hours each one thought that the ship was going to pieces. We were thus alternating between hope and fear, first expecting certain destruction, and then experiencing a feeling of momentary relief, nntil about two A. M. Tuesday, when several officers came in the cabin to order the men into the rigging, and advising tha ladies to remain in tho cabin and mountlhe tables when the tide should again rise. Several womon, however were taken by their husbands to the top of the skylight over the main saloon stairs, while
KISS ANNIB PETZOLD,
the young lady who was committed to my charge in Bremen, courageously climbed into tho rigging, with .my as sistance, first climbing through the rafte rsand on to theskylight She did not lose heart during tho whole of that awful night, although subjected to perils under which ordinary women would have given up all hope.
While I held her by tbe waist, the paymaster, who was above us. lost his footing, and, falling against Miss Petzold, rebounded from her shoulder into tho dark water and was seen no more, slthough a gallant effort to arrest his fall was made by one of the stewar ds. During our ascent through tbe ratters Miss Potxold was nearly choked. She cheerily held to the rigging and to myself, never yielding to the despaif which paralysed the efforts and caused the death of so many other unfortunate ladies. While aloft an unknown person handed me a flask of whisky not bung able to draw Ibo cork with my teeth, 1 broke tho neck against a spar, and having revived Miss i'etxold with a draught, I took one myself, and passed the bottle to the nearest man. Dr. Pe**old, of Fifty-third, New York, is to be congratulated upon his daughter. In my opinion she is the braveat girl of the century. Many of the other women atayed in the saloon and were fcttowintn »v A svnnssr DEitres of

'Among them were five German Sister* of Charity who frantically supplicated tho Viifcin, but never exerted thetnselvea. U«t fell into a despairing apathy and exclaimed: "Well, it useless to resist God's decree 1 will not do anything."

The strange of fate wore illustrated in the oaae of a man who, when about to shoot himself, w»* ^dissuaded by a lady passenger, who ckhorted him to be brave and not die a cowartt's death.
In less than five minutes she was herself swept over the deck and perished.
A Swiss, who had told me he had lived sixteen years in China, **s hurled from his place in ihe rigging as soon as he had arrived there and a boy, forced against tbe rail, had his leg torn off while(extricating himself I also saw one man's head completely severed from hia body.
Three or four men,after being washed about from end of tho vessel to tho other, were finally swept over. 1 think 1 have narrated enough horror*, and must conclude my story, but not wit'ftaut again paying a tribute of admiration to the lady who cheered by her heroic courage tho dread moments which wt» spent together in tho rigging during that night of death.

Mr. ik. is quite a young man, .but he has a very cool and wise head on his shoulders. He has become a celebrity among the survivors, and, although he has had to tell tbe story of his experience during those dreadful hours over and over again, until, as ho says, he is sick of the veiy mention of the wreck, he kindly consented to repeat bis narrative once more to mo. I give it in bis own words as nearly aa possible. I wish I could adequately con rev to you the extremely intelliont and effective manner in which he told it
BIS STORY.
1 was a first clasa passenger on the Deutschland, and was going back to my home in Cleveland, where my parents reside. I went to bed early on Sunday night, not feeling well. All Sunday tho weather waa very bad—thick and with heavy squalls of show. On Monday morning, tho 6th, between five and six o=Olo«k» I felt the ship c-r-r-r-anch on tho ground and then hirch heavily over on to her side and back again. I threw on somo clothes and went on deck. We wore stuck fast. There Was not ditch confusion. Tho crew were getting the boats ready. I saw one boat swept away. There was a man in it, with an axe, cutting at the lowering gear. All Monday we worked at the pumps, passengers and crew together but, of course, without any effect, for the ship was driven deep into the ground. Some of the cargo was thrown overboard out of the forehold most of it was wiae and, think, grain. Several of t|ie younger men of the crew were
of wine. Moat of those men musthave been drowned, I should say, *nd served them right, too.
The captain never left tho briclge Vil that day. The passengers of all classes, after the first rush on deck, gathered in the main saloon and, after the fright on striking had abated, we were oalm and very orderly. Beyond the fact that we wer« immovably fast in the ground we were spparently in ao imminent danger yet but we changed eur minds on this point as tbe day drew on and wo wer* still holpless on tbo sandbank. All day long we had been confident that assistance would come.
THB STEWARDESS
behaved sple* didIy serving out soup and provisions to the fomale passengers, and circulating among them, soothing their fears. Life-preservers were given to us snd I heard one old man laughingly ask Mr, Julius Grossman, whose body you brought up yesterday in the tug, what he bad strapped a lot ef books ronnd him for. He thought the squares of cork were, books!

daring the day, close enouch for us to see tho people on board with our glasses. 1 tbirik they must have seen we were in distress: for, to say nothiag of tho position of tho ship, we bad a large flag at half-ma»t. Not one of them, however, came to us or made any signal. We were fall of water forward and some of its went and closed the door* communicating with that part of tho ship our doing so was noticed, an seemed to make some of the people nubre norvoua.

TO THB RIGOIKO.
1 got the time by tbe saloon clock it wati two in the morning. I climbed into the starboard shrouds between two outer stays, where tho ratlines are only at wide intervals. I lsuahed myself to the rigging. Above mo was Mr. Tiede* man, and my head came between his feet, which were testing on a shawl. The tide was now high, and at times the whole deck, fore and aft, was white with the lashing foam. I saw a man being swept about the deck in a sitting pokture. He was not making any apparent effort to save himself perhaps ha waa already dead. He went overboard. I saw two little children washing about in the same manner. The night was very dark, Wo saw tbe lightship, three miles off, making signals, and some one called out from'the rigging, "Look behind!" I looked over my ahoulder and saw Bengal lights. I suppose it was some vessel answering the lights,
TH8 COLD WAS FEARFUL.
I was completely dressed, with my overcoat on, even gloves, and those several times froze fast to the stays. I suffered great pain in my foot, and rou see two of my fingers aro still swollen. I wrapped my head in the folds of the shawl. Several times during the night I lost thy senses—swooned, I supposed but the rope kept me from falling backward into the sea.

MORNING CAVE.
The tide was low new and the decks elear. We all came down at about eight o'clock and were in good spirits at onr preservation. I went dow into the saloon to feteh my valise. I wish had not The sight was fearful. Everything was covered with the oil snd grease from the engine room THE FIVE NUNS AND OT«&R DEAD BODIES were lying about tbe floor. One of the nuns had been washed into my stateroom and her at ra was lying across my valise. I called to the sailor who had offered to get it, '*Never mind don't touch it but he pulled it out. aKVBRAZ. FISHING SMACKS, wreckers, I suppose, were hovering about us, but aid not ootnc very near.
