The Recent Di to the Re a'Italia. TO THE EDITOR OF THE UBKALD. Having read in your estimable paper different accounts of the grounding of the Re d'Italia, I deem it proper to assert that,as an invited guest, I was an eye witness on board of her; that her captain, Mr. Imbert, never de- parted from the counsels which were given to him by Capt. Comstock and Pitot McGinn. This was especially true in the last courses of halfan hour each to the east or west, suggested by Capt. Comstock to Capt. Imbert, at about balf-pasteight P. M. I heard these suggestions imyself, while lying on the sofa behind the curtain in the Captain’s cabin, Although not @ mariner, 1 know that the Lightsbip was seon at two P. M., five miles distant towards the uorthwest, by Capt. Comstock, Pilot MeGina, the officer on guard and Capt. Imbert. 1 can also testify that such was Capt. Comstock’s anxiety to tack the vessel that he did all in bis power to have the action of the engine so increased as to overcome the waves. It was according to his advice that Captain I. twice endeavored to turn the vesse! about, but failed in doth attempts. The third time the order was executed on the poop deck. Tenn algo assure you that, owing to the hor, shipwreck might orvision aud that of his officers, and the continual vigitance and counsel of Captain C. and Pilot McG., to whom he always Hstencd, estceming them periect sailors; and I believe he still re- spects them as such, because, even after the o of the mistortone, Ihave the manwavres ull we dr further proof, { will state u left the ship in the com- pany of the illustrious Mr. Webb, Captain Imbert and Captain Comstock, who were always inseparable and friendly both before avd attér the occurrence. I do not intend in this article to attribute the cause of the mishap to those experienced seamen, Capteir Comstock and Pilot McGinn, but simply to¥testify to the truth of these facts—viz: that it is not to Capt. Imbert, who is respected as of the best seamen in the Italian navy, that the blame can be imputed of having wished to act Fines «vy Hosrirars.—The present cold weather, by increasing the necessity of large fires im military and other hospitals, to keop patients comfortabie, bag, in like proportion, increased the dunger of fires breaking out. The excellent surgeon in charge of the large military bospitat at Fort Schuyler appears, as we infer from his published orders, to appreciate the emergency. His action deserves imitation in all our large military institu- tions for the sick and wounded. a eS SE FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. . Wepnxspay, Jan. 6—6 P. M. The stock market exhibited no marked feature to-day. It was somewhat heavy at the opening, but gradually recovered, and a better spirit was shown towards the close. At the first board Erie Railroad dropped to 10874, New York Central sold at 13234, Erie preferred at 103, Hudson River at 13344, Harlem at 91, Harlem preferred at 110, and Reading at 111%. The stocks of most of the Western roads fell off a fraction at the opening, but afterwards became more steady. Government securities were firm, with sales only to a moderate amount. The five-twenties are quoted at 1015;, the seven-thirty Treasury notes at 10714, the regis- tered 6's of 1881 at 105, and the coupons at 10574. ‘The committee that was appointed on the 17th of December to investigate the affairs of the Cum- berland Coal Company made their report to-day. The committee state that the officers of the com- pany refused to give them any information or. to grant them any facilities whereby they might be able todnake themselves acquainted with the in- ternal arrangements and workings of the corpora- tion. They present some facts, however, which, if not satisfactorily explained, will be damaging to the company. The directors were not pleased with the report, and they appointed another com- mittee to inquire into the facts and statements made by the persons who signed the report pre- sented to-day. The stockholders should demand the printing of that report, in order that the public might pass judgment upon it. The stock ofthe company fell two per cent at the first board, but afterwards recovered and sold at 49. The gold exchange was less animated to-day than we have seen it for along time. There was no demand, and the few parcels that were dis- posed of at 151% a li were merely gambling operations. The money market did not exhibit any material change. There appears to be sufficient capital to satisfy for the present the demands of borrowers; but unexceptionable securities and seven per cent interest are essential in the procurement of loans.

The Comptroller of this State, in his annual re- port to the Legislature, says the government of the State of New York is organized upon prin- ciples of strict economy, and that an annual tax of less than one mill upon each dollar of the valua- tion of the property would be sufficient to pay its ordinary and necessary expenses; and yet, with a tax of four times that amount, the close of the fiscal year finds the Treasury overdrawn to the amount of $1,192,787. This statement contains an insinuation damaging’ to the integrity of the previous legislative bodies, and shows with what recklessness that branch of the government has managed the financial affairs of the State. The Comptroller also says that no reliable.estimates can be made of the expenses while the Legislature continnes to make such extravagant and extra- ordinary appropriations as were passed last year, which exceeded in the aggregate over six millions of dollars. The receipts of the Treasury during the fiscal year ending September 30, from all es, amounted to $8,643,504, and the expenses during the same time were $9,836,291.
