To DC ESTABLISHED UNDER THE DIRECTION
OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY For THE
DIFFUSION OF USEFUL KNOWLEDGE.
The American Society for the Diffusion
of Useful knowledge proposed from the
commencement, to devote very early aiten-
ton Ia The publication of series of works,
on the more important branches of popular
knowledge, to be prepared and issued in a
style aud manner, suited to the purposes OF
u School Library. The primary object
was, to have them placed as extensively as
possible, in the common schools of the coun-
try, that they may be loaned to the children,
aud circulated through them among all the
families of the districts. Some of the con-
sderaaons which have led the Society to
attach special importance to this plan, are
the following:
|. The social, circulating library is un-
questionably the most economical and ctiic-
ielt mode of supplying the means of knowl-
edge, to the large mass of young persons
between the ages of ten and twenty, in the
common school districts, throughout the
country, now almost wholly unprovided

tive exercise. Curiosity is awake memory

dour in the thirst Ger knowledge, which
shsws itself in the intense eagerness TO hea,

qualification from books, if books could b,

taste and age. This period is The best time
in life, for storing the mind with knowl.

taste for its attainment in future years.

The U. S. Gazette has one remark. how
ever, which bears somewhat upon the prob
abilities of the case-as follows:
From the daily report since the pilot left

lief that something unusual has prevented
her from pursuing her proper course.

The fate of this ship remains in uncer-

From the Philadelphia Exchange Books.
LEwEs, Oct. "a, 1887.
Mr.. J. CoFFEE-I hastily wrote to you
on Sunday evening, stating the alarming
report we had here of the capture of the
ship Susquehanna, by piratical schooner.
Since then we have heard no farther news,
but have conyersed with the persons on
board the pilot boat Mary Ann, who were
Witnesses Of the affair. The ship went tn
sea between IL and l o'clock, with a fine
breeze, and under full press of canvass,
standing off E. by south. The boat went
off Indian river, at 3 o'clock stood off N.
E. and espied the ship standing S. w. with
a schooner near her. She (the boat) bore
down on her and soon saw the cross in the
fore topsaiI of the ship, and ascertained II
to be the ship, and supposing some distress
hoisted colors, which being perceived by
those at the ship she kept off south, side
and side, with the yards of both vessels
braced up sharp, SO as to admit close quar-
tiers. Between 3 and o'clock, p. NJ. they
saw both vessels, and particularly the ship
to be in vaciIlating position, frequently
and suddenly changing courses from E. tc
s., but finally, as before stated, both KEEP
off south, and So went till darkness hid then
from view. The ship had been out of sigh
of the boat nearly two hours, before sh,
was seen standing back. You can form
your own conjeciures upon these facts
which | hope may prove more favorable
than we anticipate,

The SUPPOSED PrRACY-Our readers,
we presume, are all aware that great ex-
element has been caused throughout the
country by the report, which has now been
for week in circulation, that the packet
ship Susquehanna, from Philadelphia for
Liverpool, which went to sea on Saturday
the 2lst ult., was captured the same day, off
the Capes of Delaware, by a piratical
schooner, and carried off, We have copied
in our columns all the intelligence which
throws any light upon this subject, and
we are sorry to say, that several of the
statements tend to confirm the truth of the
report made by the pilots, though nothing
has been heard that renders il positive.
There were on board the Susquehsnna
eighteen cabin, aud forty steersge passen-
gers, wenty-three of whom were women
and children, and crew of twenty-seven
men and boys including the captain and o.
fcers. Among the passengers were May
Humphrey, ESQ.,, his wife and two children
and his wife's sister Miss Esther Hoppin
of Providence. The anxiety of The relatives
aud friends of all on board is Of course very
great, and we hope that i, may soon be ter
minated by hearing of their safety.
Government vessels have beeu dispatch
cd with the utmost prompiitude from various
ports, in pursuit of the supposed pirate, and
orders have been transmitted to southern
ports & the West Indies, for all our armed
vessels in port TO sail Immediately ~ quest

Baltimore EXCHANGE, Oct. 26.-Capt.
WaIling, of the schr. Chingarora, which
arrived at this port yesterday from New
York, reports that he was off the Capes of
the Delaware on Sunday afternoon, and
that he then saw large ship steering an
ESE course bound as he supposed to Eu-
rope, tn, wind then being fresh from NV.
he saw no schr. or suspicious looking ves-
sci on the coast. On Monday he fell in
with II ship, which came into the Capes OF
Virginia in company, and which he pre-
sumed to be the Louisiana. Capt. Waling
cannot suppose that the ship he saw steer
ing ESE. was the ship which came into
the Capes of Virginia, in company.

From the Commercial Herald.
We have conversed with a gentlemar
who has seen Mr.. Rowland, and had from
him an account of the situation of the two
vessels as the one boarded the other, fror
which there can be but little doubt of tn,
Susquchanna having been robbed. Mr.. Il
states that he was about three or four miles
distant-that the ship was the Susquehanns
that the schooner was long black look.
ing craf-tbat the sails of the Susquehanna
appeared to flap as if the helm had been
abandoned-that the schooner was sailing
round her. first on one quarter and then on
the other, as ifiu waiting for those who had
boarded. This appearance of two ves-
sells, several of our sea-faring men consider
as strong proof of the piracy having been
committed.
Mr.. Rowland, we learn, was on board
the pilot boat with those who first reported
the piracy.

From the Wilmingtos (DeD Journal %
yesterday.
Reports are constantly coming in which
may or may not be relied upon, corrobora-
ting the main fact A report existed al
New Castle on Wednesday, that an inward
bound vessel had seen a ship on fire at sea.
A young man had arrived here on the same
day, who left Norfolk last week, aud was
at the Breakwater on Saturday. He states,
that on the passage round, they saw a sus-
picious looking vessel, corresponding in ap-
pearance with the description, given Of the
supposed pirate by the Lewes pilots, and
that she was steering toward the Delaware.
The Philadelphia papers contain long
account Of the examination had before the
mayor, touching the supposed counex,on of
a Capt. Blankman and his son, with some
piraticaI enterprise. on the suspicion Of
which they were arrested on Thursday.
The evidence really amounts to little or
nothing, although afiording ground enough
for the arrest and investigation, under the
peculiar circumstances ofthc Case.
