Owing to the unprecedented quantity of wur advertisements advertisers secking our volumns are requested to send in their adver- Bisements early in the day. This course will ecure their proper classification and allow us ¥o make timely arrangements for our news. {Advertisements intended for our Sunday issue Yay be sent in mot later than nine , M., either at this office, our only uptown u, 1,265 Broadway, or #t.our Brooklyn ranch office, corner of Fulton amd Boerum Btreets, Let advertisers remember that the earlier their advertisements are in the Hznaty ‘pftioe the better for themselves and for us, ‘Tae News rzom Sram is almost unchanged In ite tenor, with the exception of a report which intimates that Sefior Castelar is about Io resign his seat in the Cabinet. Apart from Bis wo have the usual sad intelligence of mili- Bary riot, Oarlist retaliation, the flight of the Wighting curé and ¢ provincial civic proclama- Rion of the Commune, A very disheartening ition of public affairs. ‘Tau Usvny Laws were framed to prevent wagant rates for the use of money, how the ourrent experience of Wall street jphows. They tend to protect the rich man being made to pay more than seven cent for the mohey he heeds in extending business. But the poor wretch who has to his Sunday suit to get meat for his Ginner must pay the pawnbroker five per cent. The jewel of consistency vorv black diamond in this case cqne cee Sudail yeas Bi" ica ees ble for the Logs Of the Six, slundrod, struck ; ‘that four hundred men were sayed and that six hundred souls, ‘including every woman and child on board, perished in the waves. We may learn from the lips of the survivors how they themselves eacaped the fearful peril; we may hear of in- |:dividual. instances. of coolness and bravery ‘worthy. of admiration; we may gather inoi- dent after incident to excite the imagination and touch the heart; but we can add nothing to the terrible facts which have sent a thrill of horrorand dismay through the whole civilized world. Tt is mot in the power of language to convey an adequate idea of the dreadful soene enacted on the rock-bound coast on that fatal Tuosday morning. The. vessel, with her thousand passengers, had been for eleven days plough- ing her way westward without accident or mishap, and the heart of every soul on board must have been joyous at the thought that the end of the journey was so near. No person who hag crogsed the Atlantic can have failed to mark the change that comes over the passengers as the vessel approaches the shore. Confidence and expectation light up every countenance. They have passed by what in their inexperience of the sea and its dangers appears to them to be the most perilous portion of the voyage, when in mid- washi: waves against the vessel’s side, peering down in imagination into the fathom- less depths of waters beneath them, and think- ing with a shudder of the apparently frail protection that keeps them from a fearful death, In a few hours they will hear the welcome cry of ‘land,’* and they fondly believe that all danger isatanend. It was in the enjoyment of these happy, hopeful feelings that the poor souls on board 'the Atlantic laid down to rest on last Monday night. Little did they think that they were speeding onward to destruction as surely as if the ill-fated vessel that bore them had been driven before the wind and tossed abont at the mercy of the waves without rud- der or compass, Even while they slept— probably while they dreamed of the land they hoped to reach on the morrow—the dark shadow of death fell upon them. In the still- neas of the night a loud crash aroused them from sleep—another—and as they started up, terrified at the unseen ang unknown danger, @ horrible, gurgling sound fell + upon their ears, Barely had they time for the first agonized exclamation, ‘My God! My God!’ before the cry was stifled on their lips. Scarcely was an instant left in which to clasp husband, wife or child to their bosoms before the merciless waters rushed‘in upon them, tearing the dear ones from their arms, drowning them miserably in the cabins or. carrying them out ‘to ‘sea in shricking masses on the sweep of the mighty waves. We can see the agonized faces lifted up in mock- ery, as it werd, by the heaving waters ; we can hear the wild wail that broke from the cabin for an instant, only to be followed by the stillness of death—the moan which sounded to the terrified foreigner like the moan of the sea lion, but was in truth the smothered shrick of three hundred souls struggling against suffo- cation in the agony of death. But it is mer- ciful.to draw down the curtain and shut out the heartrending scene. In the hour that seems the hour of greatest security to the inexperienced traveller the experienced seaman feels that the critical moment of the voyage has arrived. He knows the perils of a treacherous coast. His eye strains for the evidence of land along the hori- zon, for the discovery of the guiding beacons. His ear listens anxiously for the warning sound of breakers. When in mid-ocean he can sleep contentedly amidst the howling of the tempest ; but when nearing the coast he studies every variation of the barometer, every sign in the sky. Carefully and cautiously he feels his way, now taking soundings, and now counting the knots as the log-line runs off the reel, The commander of an ocean steamer filled with a living freight is bound to adopt every precaution that can possibly be taken against any conceivable danger, however remote. He accepts as grave a responsibility as any human being can incur. Hundreds of lives are in his keeping. His passengers trust him with implicit faith, Helpless themselves, ignorant of the first rudi- large profits, of those who travel on their vessels ; but espe- cially is it criminal for an incompetent officer to take charge of o passenger ship, or fora competent commander to neglect any duty, however apparently trivial, that may be re. quired for the protection of his yosvel and of those on board. It is impossible to believe that the owners of the Atlantié or her com- mander are blameless for the terrible calamity that has oceurred. We are up at the present time to inquire whether the owners of the White Star line exercised proper care and fs prudence when they plaged auy vessel under charge of Captain Williams; that seri- ous question “Yitst be disdussod here. after. But it is certain that thoy did commit a criminally — carclegs Lact when they gent tho Atlantic incompetency neglect on the unfortunate commander of: the lost’ vessel ; ia terribly conclusive. His own pan te n> plgpicettere Sm He 8 > i in il cui should, even at his own caloulation, have hove to, until morning, But Captain Williams went to bed! Ooolly and comfortably he “tarned in’’ at midnight, and left orders to be’ called at three o'clock in the morning. He was called at that hour, but by a messenger different from the one he had expected. At three o'clock, when, according to this offi- cer's “reckoning,” his vessel onght to have been about eighteen or twenty miles south of Sambro light, she ran crashing on to Mars Rock,’ about, brgnty mig A") the west and seventeen miles to the north of this careful navigator’s “reckoning.” Rush- ing on deck, he found the effect of his fatal roskinesusss pefore his eyes. He saved his own life, and four hundred men escaped with theirs ; but, as he laments, every woman and child perished. No wonder that’ the ‘com- mander calls this ‘terrible,’ for he must’ feel that | the life of every lost passenger was at his gy tnt was eo his » keep- ing, was opt opal incompetency of gross’ saad hageat duty. No wonder that he thinks with horror of the fate of every woman on board, from that ghastly corpse lashed in the rigging, with its staring ‘but sightless eyes, its frothing lips and its fingers covered with glittering jewels, to the poor, weak mother in the steerage, pressing her ocean-born infant to her breast in the convulsive grasp of death. Unhappily, in this miserable ‘medley of incompetency and blunders there does not appear to have been a single officer capable of keeping a sound and manageable vessel off a rock-bound coast on a starlight night, or a man on board who, after the calamity happened, ‘had the courage or the humanity to make an effort to save a helpless female or child. Even the one boy‘saved owed his life to his impor- tunity. His piteous cries compelled attention to his peril. It ig horrible to think that two lines in our latest despatches may explain the whole story:—‘“Some of the crew were insubordinate and beyond the control of the officers during the voyage.” What a terrible picture is here! A reckless, careless commander, incompetent or heedless officers, a crew of ruffians, whose first thought in the face of horrors such as might have touched the heart of a savage, was the plunder of the dead! Now, “what are we going to do about it?” “Is this calamity to be'a nine days’ wonder and then to pass away and. be for- gotten? Is no punishment to be meted out to the guilty parties? Is this steamship line and others to be suffered to continue to risk the lives of passengers in ships short of coal, commanded by incompetent officers and manned by insubordinate crews? So far as the Hznratp is concerned we shall insist upon a thorough investigation of this terrible event and upon a full exposure of the facts, ‘We shall hold all the parties implicated toa strict accountability, and, whether this awful calamity has been due to the greed of the company, to the criminal neglect of the officers, or to both, we shall not cease to use our earnest. efforts to lay the truth before the public and to do our best to protect the lives which the owners and commanders of ocean steainers appear to hold at so cheap a rate. Tax News rrom Cupa.—A special telegram to the Hznarp from Cuba, under date of Havana the Ist instant, brings a statement of a report which was then current in the city to the effect that General Portilla had been cap- tured by the insurgents. The revolutionist cause was still in stubborn progress against the authority of the Spaniards, The } hopes of the people were cheered by numerous desertions from the ranks of the Madrid mili. tary and the surrender of @ couple of army positions to’ the patriots. Then there were really painful intorior tribulations caused by the high price of beef. This dinner crisis had been produced by a combination of the butchers and slaughterers, The people were likely to unite against the league of the provi- sion capitalists and compel them by force to lower the market tariff. The new twenty mil- lion loan project finds favor in influential cir. ¢les. - Bidwell, the alleged forger against the Bonk of England, remains in confinement at Havana, while another man, George Bidwell, tas been arrested, after an exciting chase, and charged with the offence in Edinburgh, Scot- land. Tae ReskRve AND THE SpecuLATORS.—Great pressure is being brought to bear upon Presi- dent Grant and Secretary of the Treasury Richardson to induce the issue of a portion of the reserve on the specious plea of the necessity of relief to the money market. Tho real object is to put up the premium on gold for the benefit of the Jay Gould Ring, which is speculating for © further rige, @ remembrance of Black Friday still lives, and the insinuations and inuendoes to which that conspiracy gave rise are not forgotten, It is to be hoped that the government will keep clear of the intrigues and pool operations of the Wall street gam- blers, and suffer them to play out their games in their own way and on their own resources, It would be dangerous experiment for the new Secreiary of the Treasury to mix himself up with the scheiies of the stract thus early in his official career.

This important measure has been signed by His Apostolic Majesty Francis Joseph, to the great joy of the people and Parliament. The bill has been, indeed, a government measure during many.months past. Its main provi- sions for citizen enfranchisement and the more intimate conciliation of class interests under the crown are given in the columns of the Herarp. The bill is an important conces- sion to the demands and the cause of the people. It is a universal suffrage measure regulated by a few of the old time checks and balances. Its operation during the next general election will produce im- portant consequences among the Teutonic, the Polish, Hungarian and other nationalities subject to Austria, and from these centres the influence will radiate eastward and in other directions, Francis Joseph is prudent, and this time he is so in season. When the people demonstrated around the Palace in Vienna in the year 1848 Ferdinand inquired, ‘‘What do you want?” “Metternich must resign,” replied the leaders, ‘Metternich has re- signed,” answered the Prince. The announce- ment was received with cheers. The fact was that Prince Metternich had only just quitted the room, where he had been advising a ‘‘fire on the mob.” The Ministry was reconstructed, however, and without him, Francis Joseph has given solid effect to the scene of 1848, Tue Stare Oarrron.—Some- three million dollars have been expended on our new State Capitol, and:from five to seven millions more will be needed to’ finish it.

All the frienas of Lady Dundreary had come to live upon his Lordship, and it was in getting rid of them that Dundreary became settled by the aid of Asa Trenchard.
