the time. A consultation was then held with
the crew and passengers, which resulted in a
determination to return with the ship to New
Orleans. The wind at that time was light, at
about North, the Balize bearing N. by w; the
crew being quite exhausted with continued
pumping of the ship, and fearing she would
fill before they could reach port. The pas
sengers demanded TO be put on board of the
French ship Louis 18th, then but short dis

TO the Louis 18th, to ascertain whether the
Captain would receive them on board-he
consented TO do SO, and rendered also the loan
of his boats to assist in embarking them
After all the passengers were sent on board
the Louis 18th, so much water was found in
the ship, it was the unanimous opinion to aban-
don her, which was done al O'Clock on the
morning of the 18th of June Finding the
boats of the Charles insufficient to contain
the whole, with the view of making port,
they proceeded on board the Louis l4th.--
After getting on board, Capt. G. desired the
Captain of the Louis 18th to haul up, in hopes
of speaking some vessel bound into New Or

he did for two hours, he then concluded to

The undersigned, passengers on board the

JEws.-We are told in late article in a
German newspaper. addressed by Jews to
their brethren, that in no country of the earth
are Jews SO numerous as in Syria, that in no
place do they live in such dense masses, or so
independently of the surrounding inhabitants:
and in none do they persevere so steadfastly
in their faith in the promise of the fathers, as
on the beautiful shores of the Orontes. In
Damascus alone are nearly 10000 Jews.

The following article taken from the New
Orleans Bulletin. settles the great excitement
and alarm created in that city by the sudden
disappearance of the crew of the ship Charles
whilst on her passage 10 France:
THE SHIP CHARLES.
The mystery, as regards the above vessel,
is at length cleared up, by the arrival OF the
captain and crew at Charleston, who, with
the passengers, it appears, abandoned the ship
in consequence of her leaking, at least, that is
the reason assigned. The conduct of captain
Gorham is, to say the least of it, very extraor-
binary. His statement, as it appears in the
Charleston papers, as regards the leaking of
the ship, does not at all correspond with her
situation when she was fallen in with by the
tow-boat, as she then, after having been SO
long abandoned, had not in her as much wa
ter as Captain G. states was in her when he
left her, and she was pumped dry without any
difficulty or unusual exertion, and we under
stand, is now about proceeding to sea again,
without having discharged her cargo or I'M
dergone any repairs, it not being considered
that she requires the latter, and does not leak
more than vessels of her class and age usually
do.
The abandonment of the vessel appears to
have been most wanton and unnecessary
proceeding, particularly when the circumstan-
ces are taken into view that she was lumber
loaded and therefore could not sink that she
was in sight of the Balize, and directly in the
track of the numerous vessels bound in and
out of the Mississippi, and consequently sure
of succor at almost any moment, should the
leak have really become such as to create any
Just cause of alarm, and the season of the
year guaranteeing mild and pleasant weather.
We have seldom seen more general burst
of indignant feeling than was exhibited by
our community yesterday against the conduct
of Captain G; particularly among the shipping.
: If he had only left few lines on his cabin Ia
BILE, or on his log slate, he would have saved a
vast deal of intense anxiety and mental suf-
fering to the friends of his passengers as well
as the friends of those on board other ships
that sailed at the same time, to say nothing Of
the heavy expenses that has been incurred in
: fitting out armed expeditions in search of the
supposed pirates. But his whole conduct in
r the affair appears to have been most thought
less and unjustifabIe, and we would recon.
mend TO him not again to visit New Orleans
unless he wishes to be mark for the finger o.
? scorn, as he passes on the Levee, and to be
disowned and despised BY his nautical broth
rem.

nation, he recorded his opinion, under an
oath that the State would be .compelled TO
payl" Does he know any thing now which
he was ignorant of at the time in relation to
the bank? The charter was passed, the bonds
were sold, and the terms of the sales were
known to him. If the sales of the bonds were
illegal he knew it THEN. IF they had been
sold in violation of the charter he was not ig-
norant of il; and if, as he now asserts, the
state is not bound to pay them, why did he
say she would be compelled to pay" in his
report of lS4O?
If the charter, and the sales of the bonds
under it, was in violation of the constitution,
why then we are not bound to pay them
the whole affair is nullity, and we do not owe
this debt of $5,000O00. And if this be true;
| if by a violation of The constitution the char
ter was rendered void, and we relieved from
our liability as the makers of the bonds, what
did Mr.. Tucker mean when he spoke of our
| "fr1ghtfuL liabilities" to meet which, "direct
and oppressive taxation must be resorted to?
| If we do not owe this $5,000,000, if we are
not legally bound for it, our liabilities are NOT
"frightful" but on the contrary are very mod
crate. Mr.. Tucker cannot put in the plea
that he did not understand the question-it
will not answer. He must give better rea-
sons than that. We desire to know WHY he
has changed his opinions since last year, and
what new lights have broken upon him? We
are anxious not only on our own account, but
on account of the people who are seeking after
the truth.
Our object at present is only to direct pub
lie attention to this report, for the opinions o.
Mr.. Tucker in 1910. We shall have occasion
to refer to it MISUNDERSTANDING Wing.

A Scene at the closing Of the Convention in Y

They clustered round, that listening throng,
The parting hour drew nigh;
And Heightened feeling, deep and strong,
Spoke forth from eye to eyei
For reverend in his hoary years,
A white-robed prelsie bent,
And trembling psthos wing'd his words,
As to the heart they went.
With sanity love he urged the crowd
Salyaton's hope to gain,
While gathering Ger his furrow'd cheek,
The tears fell down like rain.
He waved his hand, and music woke
A warm and solemn strain,
His fayori,e hymn swelled high, and fll'd
The onsecrsted fune.
Then, from the haIlow'd chancel forth,
With faitering step, he sped,
And fervent laid fathers hand
On every pries,ly head,
And brea,hed the blessing Of his God,
And, full Of neekness, said,
"Be faithful in your Masters work
When your old Bishops dead.
"For more than fifty years, my sons,
A Savior's love supreme
Unto a sinful world hath been
My unexhausted theme;
SNOW, see, the blossoms of the grave
Are Ger my temples spread,
Oh lead the seeking soul to Him
When your old Bishops dsad.'
Far waned the holy Sabbath eve
On toward the midnight hour,
Before the spell-bound throng retired
To .lumber's soothing power;
Yet many sleeper, mid his dream,
Beheid, in snowy stole,
That Patriarch prelate's bending form,
Whose accents stirred the soul.
In smiles, the Summer morn arose,
And many grateful guest
Forth from those hospitable domes,
With tender memories, pressed
While DER the broad and branching bay,
Which, like heart doth pour
A living tide, in countless streams,
Through fair Virginia's shore
Ger Rappahannock' fringed breast,
Ger rich Potomac's tide,
Or where the bold, resistless James
Rolls on, with monarch pride
The boats that ask not sail nor oar,
With speed majestic glide,
And many a thong htful pastor leans
In silence DER their side;
And, while he seems to scan the flood,
In silver meath him spread,
Revolves the charge. "Be strong for God,
When your old Bishops dead"
