Arriuol Of the Hibermia- The Bontonka Bout Club
The Diving Bell Company Death Of En- Govern
or Ho,0ard Naval Recrmits-Ihe Tobacco Trade
-Estate of the Req. Mr.. Giides-Dearhs.
The news of the Hibernia reached here last
night by telegraph, and appears in some of the
morning rapers. The Great Western will also
be along in few days, presume.
The Bontonka Boat Club, OF Philadelphia, ar
rived here yesterday in a clipper schooner,
on their way to Norfolk and Old Point, and from
thence on pilgrimage to the tomb of Washing
ton. They are jovial set Of fellows, and appear
to be enjoying themselves in fine style.
Notwithstanding the flaming announcement
made by the Diving Bell Company, relative to
the great OF their last trip to the Spanish
Nam, that they Brought from the ocean depths
no less than 1927 900, in good old Spanish money
and that on the last day 800 had been recovered,
with all tue diving apparatus, &c, was sold at
auction yesterday. What wealthy men this COM
pany must be comprised of to ye'd the prospect
OF raising 500 per day, just as they had found
their way INTO the core Of the sunken treasure.
wonder whether the announcement of the last
mentioned fact had any tendency to increase the
number ofbldders at the sale.
George Howard, Esq an Elk Governor Of Mary
land, died on Sunday night, at his residence in
Anne Arundel county, OF apoplexy. He had at
tended church in the morning.
On board the receiving sup Ontario, there are
about seventy sailors and marine recruits, who
will depart this afternoon for Boston.
Some idea of the extent of the tobacco trade of
Baltimore, may be formed from the fact TINT the
five immense State warehouses are full, and that
IL 500 hhds. are on private storage, making the
whole stock on hand % 800 hoysheads. A new
State warehouse, capable of storing 6 600 hhds.,
has just been commenced, and Judging from the
rapidly increasing trade Of the city, several more
will soon be required.
The late Rev. NJ. Gildea, pastor of ST. Vim
cent de Paufs Catholic church. who died about Il
year SINCE, and whose pecuniary affairs have
caused considerable distur banc, in the congrega-
ton, since his death, turns out TO have been q
bankrupt at least the remnant of property which
the church has left for his creditors, will pay but
ten cents in the dollar Of his liabilities learn
that his executors are about 10 make such an
award, but anticipate that but few OF his credi-
Tors Will agree to accept It. The Rev. Mr.. G.. was
man of great charity and piey, and like the
Rev. Mr.. Damfoux, has been known to take the
coat shirt OF his back to afford reeft to 1tfcr
ing humanity. Through his unceasing exertions,
he raised the money to bu,ld the splendid church
in which he oiiiciated, literally bestowing his
own means to the same purpose, and If the trlis-
tees OF the church have the conscience TO repudl-
ate the debts of such a man, their pety must be-
rather Of the India rubber texture.
The number Of death. thus city, during the
past week, was Is, OF Which number 20 Were
uuder year Of age. Out OF q adults VINO died
during the week, l6 were carried Oft by con-
sumption.
