~ AFFAIRS OF THE CITY. Wists to the British Frigate Hussar—The Curtositics ef the Deep—Great Success of the Divers. A day or two ago, our reporter visited the wreek, orrather ‘the scene of the wreck of the British frigate Hussar, sunk im the East river, above Hell Gate, upwards of seventy yeareago. This forty-four gun frigate, as many of our readers know, was storesbip sent over by the British government, in the revolutionary struggle, both to assist im subjugating the insurgents, as a ship of war, aud to bring supplies of arms, au munition, and money, While passing up the Sound, on tne 16th of December, 1780 she struck on Pot Rock,in Hell Gate, and was imme- diately ran towards the shore, at Stoney Island, which is ‘apwards of @ mile further up,om the Westchester side. She bad gotten within fifty yards of the island, aud the @fficers and crew had just time to take their boats and gein the shore, when she went down in eighty: five fect of water, with all that she contained, including seventy American prisoners, confined below, some of whose skele- tons, still in irons, were found in one of the many diving ©perations carried on in removing the wreck. That the ‘Hasear, when she sunk, contained a large sum of money, im silver and gold, is well known. The amount is stated at two millions of dollars, The loss was severely felt by the British , a8 the ship contained the ssl ’ pay, and various supplies greatly needed; and no doupt ites hose Providential occurrences, by which God him- bt for American freedom. have been made at sundry times since, to break je in the recollection of our readers that a company ‘Was formed, and the sum of, we believe, $30,000 spent in im unavailing operations,and the company was finally broken up. All these efforts faile 1 from want of the pro- per apparatus, which the discoveries of science have since supplied. Tho diving bell has been long in use, but all who have seen, and especially those who have used it, Know that it is a very heavy and cumbrous affair. and that a man enclosed in it can do very little work under the water, and in very deep water scarcely apything at all. He connot move about freely unter the water, or use avy active exertion witn his hands. The invention of the submarine armor, by the late Captain Taylor, has supplied the defect. “With this apparatus, he worked at the wreck a short time before his death, and did much for so brief a period. We sbould mention, in this conmection, that before h» moved in the matter he went to England, and as certained, from the archives of the eountry, every- thing that the ship contained when she sunk. But it was not till last og that anvthing effectual had been accomplished, when Messrs Pratt. Howe & Co., of Bos. ton, undertook the task and went at itin right earnest. Mr. Pratt ia the successor of Captain Taylor, and pos- feases nis right to operate on the wreck, and also the ex- clusive right to we his apparatus, excepting the United States government. Mr. Pratt is a practical diver him- self. ond was taught the art by Captain Taylor for many years. The submarine armor enables a diver to des cond to any depth aud move about on the bottom with perfect ease, and its construction is such that an uali- mited supply of fresh air can be communicated, so that ® person may remain for hours under water, and come up 4s dry as when he went down. [fence the great sus- cess that has attended the operaticns of Pratt & Ifowe. Tn two seasons they have accomplished more than was achieved in half a century Last year they succeeded In raising # lange quantity of the ‘wreck, together with arms, ammunition, and otherarticles, This ceason their suecess {is etill greater, and all the decks are now re- movid, except the lower one, beneath which the treasure lies, Even that is penetrated, and the divers have a tually worked their way throvg’ her hottom ; but the great object ie now to removd *56 entire of ine lower eX anu so to gut the wreck that the strong current of water may sweep away the mud that is collected in her. They can only work about six months in the year at the furthest, namely, from May till November, aud only at low and high water—in other words, when there is slack water, as the current is so great at all other times that it is imporsible to do anything. In the longer days, they are generally enabled to work three tides ; in the shorter days, but two. ‘here could hardly be @ more difficult place to operate. It is below Hell Gate, where the water Turhes with such impetuosity, and the two tides, the on: by the Sound and the other by Sandy Hook, meet there- ut ; and, what is curious, one current will ran in one | direction at the bottom, and the other in the opposite di- | reetion at the top, at the same time, Stoney Island. opposite to which the wreck lies, was ‘once a small island, as its name imports; but, separated | | named, and no | propriety of prohibiting the driving of them through the by so narrow and so shallow a stripe of water, from Man- hattan island, that the interval has been since filled up. it is nearly opposite Mott Haven. The shore is to bold | that e person can walk right off the land into seventy or feet of water, The island is owned by Governour Morris, and will henceforth be culled Morris island. sehooner is moored with chain cables and anchors ‘over the spot where the wreck lies, and the operations are performed from her deck. Seven or eight men are employed. The submarine armor consists of strong In- | dia rubber, and is divided into two parts; one the trow- vers and boots, and the other the jacket, which after Put o , axe joined together by means of two copper een which the eages of two garments are and sectired by means of buttons, fastened & wrench, +o as to be air tight, and so as that two become one coat of mail. ‘The wrists are lapped tightly so as to exclude the air. Attached to the neck of the jacket is a copper helmet, which protects the head from the ure of the water, and serves, at the same time, for the insertion of the air tube for the admissicn | of fresh air, and the valve for the emission of foul air. In the face of the helm inserted a strong piece of glass for the purpose of enabling the diver to see objects, bat in the present cass, on account of the great depth of the water, and the current, it is usclese; as nothin: can be seen below forty feet. When the diver is encase in this submarine armor, he prosents as curious a spec: | tacle as can well be conceived. If the inhabitants ofj the deep bad any idea about the devil, we have nc doubt they ‘would imagine it was he if they saw the diver, and swim away from his satanic majesty #s fast as they could. It is almost to death by the ap- pearance. sary to havy weights to theamount of about one hundred pound: around the armor, so as to counterpoixe the efiect of the air that is gr ag into it by m cf a foree pump, and sink the diver, which is a rather slow operation, capecially near the bottom, owing to the great pressure of the water. It requires two men pumping at the air pump all the time to resist thet pressure, and supply fresh air. Ail things being ready. a hook, attached to @ rope rua through a pulley. is inserted in a ring on the top of the helmet, and he [s hoisted overboard, feet foremost, ana down he goes, with « signa! line attached to his left wrist and held by & person on decks, with whom the diver thus communicates, while, in his right hand, he takes with | him a rope with « small chain and ring attached to it, | tor the purpose of wing it around such portions of the wreck as he is enabled to disengage, or such articles as are too heavy to bring up in his hands. {t is astonish- ing how casily large mnases of heavy matter are moved in the water at a great depth, once they are set free, The air tube is a hose cousisting of India ruibber, with twisted wire inside, to make it strong, and keep it dilated, and covered with a lapping of (wlue outside, One end of this is connected with the air pump, and the other with the helmet, and the fresh alr being foreed through ft, «wells out the submarine armor, which fits the person loosely, and thus two objects are accomplished—rsistance to the pressure of the water on the body. and a supply of atmow pheric air necestary to sustain | ‘The fore’ of the air pumped in drives the foul air out, through a valve, the preeture from within being greater than that from with ‘out, and thus preventing the entrance of the water; and when the sure of the external water becomes geeater than the air inside, it closes the ¥ Ail the time of the operation the bubbling of the alr escaping pct where the diver has deseen being rims, inserted in six weeks, From what has been b that every one uequired by p constitution ea and rome. driven tot) y petaons of weak lungs have no eh: gle trial might cort them their I best cemstitutions can only descend t water by repeated trials, ant b themselves to go Coey ad the depth, the at thore was a large on the shore, which had a quantity of rigeing. rotten and decayed cor as the day the slilp Some ¢ eularly with rome of the Kues 9 tid On taken on board the rehoener, by t Ges, Pratt, our reporter wituets sd Ube operation he has described above; ant white be was there.

De Langwillitte, corner of York street and St John’s lane, Officers Webster and Cook, of the Fifth ward police, gave testimony to the following effect :—They were standing in 8t. John’s lane, near the corner of York street, when they discovered the soners about the door of the grocery. The officers ept themselves out of sight fora while, and soon «aw one cf the prisoners make motions, as if endeavoring to force one of the doorsopen. ‘They then made a descent upon them, and took them into custody.
