The reckicasnoss and carclessuess of somo vossel Captains duriog tho last fow woekn has sausod soveral disasters to the various bridges across the rivor aud branches, not only badly damaging the stcnotures, but aleo soriously in- terfering with the traffic from one division of tho city to snotber. Itis only a fow days ago that the propeller Japan ran into Clark stroct bridgo, damaging the abutment 10 6noh au extent that the bridgo could not ba swuny for nearly a day, entmling giest damage on tibe Btreat-lnilway Compauy, aud canaing n serion interruption of the tratic of that most mportaut thorougbfara. Last evening about 8 o'clock a similar acei- dont Bapponed at tho Van Burco stieet bridge, walch, bosides disabling the siructure, came noar costing soversl huinau belogs thelr lives. Tho bridge at the bour named had Just baen clossd, d (ud tle red ball hoisted to atiow the waiting Btring of cara and wagona to pass, whon tho propotler Almira, lumber-isden, camo up, aod, rogatdless of the rod bLall which warnod it off, ran loto the bridge at full specd, forcing it open.

Attention haa boen calied repeatodly of late to tho fact that although Blennerhassott's appeal to the Supreme Oourt bad rosultoed in sustaining | the finding of tho lower Court, the prisonor was still In jali, beoause the rule of tho upper Cour had nov boen forwarded. Yesterday, for the first timo, a roport waa prevalont that tho papois in bis case had not been forwarded bocauss tho sosts bad not been pald. Along mith this roport waa anothor, to the effect that Judge Rogers had written Gov.

The roport was also current ibat tate's-Attorney Road had joined Judge Rogeis in recommending hia pardon. Mr, Reed etaiod that, notwithaianding his refusal some woeks spo to recommend the pardon, he bad la the fast fow days agrced to wign such s recom. meadation with Judge Rogers, on the sufiposi- tion, however, thatthe Judge would not make any such recommeudation. Up to vestsrday ho had signed no rocommendation ot the kind, for the reanon that none had boen shown him, and from sn nterview bad with the Guveinor sevoral days sgo he was satisfled that a pardon would ot be granted under any clrcumstances, The excune made for thoabseuos of the papers from the Buprame Court iu the case is exceed- Ingly gauzy, and the suspicion s growming geu- aral that some unduo collusion somawlore ia at tha bottom of his being withheld from entering upon the enjoymeut of his sen- tonce. He has now been in |all pearlva year awaiting the actiun of the courts, andit hn is not 10 be pardoned, It 18 au injustics to him, for which there is no ressonable excuse, to longer detsin bim, and so injustice tothe tax-fayers thst beshould be longer continued s ward of ihe county while ho beloogs to the State, and under the finding of both the upper and lower oourts owes the Btate s proficable service. It is sbous time, in justice to both tho people and the prisoper, that romething was done in the cara—that the papers wera forward- od and ho sent to Jolist, or tuat his pardon was vo0eived and he discharged.
