A MEIORABLE VOYAGE. An Eventful Trio Forty Tnn Ago- si tr u T . New Ioirrei|ax that we were in no immediate danger, the L-tptam directed the boata to be made ready. The Ocean Home was now near us, and her captain cried out : 'Ly on IM: we are .inking :' When it was reported to the captain that the boata were manned, he re- plied : 'Alas, it is no use ' The ship is Bne! She has disappeared: 1 Only fituen minutes had elapsed since the urn cry had ben heard, bat the agmy of those fifteen mmtuies to the emigrants on board the Ocean Home no imagination can conceive, no pen can portray. By the conclusion the windlass was driven on the forehatoh.wliich prevented those below from getting on deck. The bow had been chopped ott and in front of them was their watery grave. The ship settled forward, and as it Beared a perpendicular one after another dropped off, until, at last, those who were left went down ttli the ship and with cries of woe aad disappeared from right. In a very short time we heard cries to the windward, and upon looking about saw a boat under oar stern trying to fetch the ship. ou 1 a line and hauled the peo They were those who had Home in the quarter boat. eople left We threw le on board. the Ocean m all.

The facts concerning this memorable voyage were gathered t>om th* dairies of two well-known citi/ens of Newark, who both participated in the scene* whicli they relate, one as a passenger and the other as first officer. Their recollection of the events of which they speak is very vivid and will probably never be effaced. The account given by one of these gentlemen is as follows ; " On the 9th of August 1353, our vessel, the clipper ship Cherubim, of -J.OOO tons burthen, left hir pier in .Vew York harbor on her first i.rip, bound for London, having on board the British Consul, Rowcroft, his wife and five children, teu passengers mall, with a number ia the steerage.

The captain wa* so over- come that he could not read the service : my brother Johu and myself performed that last sad rite.
