"People are beginning to ventila

erary Museum still more attractive and
valuable to its readers the publisher has
decided to offer prize Of Three Humid
red Dollars for the best Original Story,
that shall be offered previous to the 6f-

A story of American life, domestic
in its scenes and characters, and devoid
of the affectations and high sounding
names used by writer's of the Augustus
Fitz-Clarence and Laura Matilda school,
is desired, as it is the object of the pub
Usher to encourage real merit in our ma
tive authors.
Stories offered in competition for this
prize must occupy about one hundred
pages Of ordinary manuscript; and to
be decided upon by the publisher of the
Museum, who will return the unsuceess-
full manuscripts to the address indicated
by their authors, should it be desired.
There may be many stories that the
publisher will wish to retain, and in such
cases he will inform the authors of the
amount he is willing to pay; if the offer
is not accepted, the manuscript to be
returned.

The INDUSTRIAL EXHIBITION Our
readers must not forget the exhibition
advertised in our columns, to commence
in Providence on the 18th of the present
month. It will, if We mistake not, fur
nish rare display of the skill and in
dustry of our State and if properly
conducted, as we doubt not it will be,
must conduce to the prosperity of every
branch of industrial interest. We are
anxious that our own thriving town shall
be we'll represented on the occasion, and
cannot too earnestly urge upon our peo-
pie the necessity Of immediate action
with reference to it. Our farmers and
manufacturers, our merchants, me-
chanics and artists, are all interested,
and should all strive to honor their
callings and their homes, by contribu-
tions of their products. The exhibition
will do much for the industry of the
State, if it becomes, through attention
to this matter, what it ought to be-a
gathering together Of the various testi-
monials in favor of Rhode Island pro-
gress in the arts and sciences.

EDITORIAL Correspondence.
NEW YORK, Sept. 9, 1867.

NEW 1ORk, oePt. W Ao"~
DEAR Echo The city is in hlgt
state of excitement in consequence Of
the destruction of the steamer Reindeer
upon the North River last Saturday.
The community had scarcely recovered
from the shock occasioned by the burn
ipg of the Henry Clay, and now they
are again startled blythe horrible repe-
tition of the same recklessness, and the
loss of many more precious lives. BY
dispatches this morning the number of
dead is reported at twenty-seven, and it
is probable that it will reach as high as
forty ,as there are large number still
living who are so badly burnt as to make
their recovery improbably.
Such wholesale murder is deserving of
the utmost rigor of the law. Murder it
is, though it is said that there was no
racing, as no other boat was i'll company,
yet who will say there was no racing
against time, no racing against the Hud-
son River Railroad, no striving for the
reputation of "fast boat" to the utter
forgetfulness of the jeopardy of hundreds
Of lives 1t is time there was some
stop put to such proceedings by a pen
atty which would make those fear for
their own safety who have no care for
others.
listened last evening to an eloquent
discourse by Rev. Henry Ward Beecher.
He took the ground that an ofense is
heinous in proportion to the standing of
the person committing 1.-THE better the
man the worse the deed-and applied it
home to his hearers in such manner as
not to be misunderstood. He touched
especially upon the practice of teaching
young clerks to disregard or hide the
truth in order to make good bargain,
and the inducements held out to young
men to taste the convivial glass at social
gatherings, thus destroying the honesty
and implanting habits Of debauchery,
where no other means could have sue
ceeded, the better the seducer the more
deadly the result.
There is grand Dramatic Festival
coming off to-day at Castle Garden, the
company comprising nearly all. the stars
of the profession now in the city, and,
among the others, the notorious Lola
Monies.
There is an unusual number o
strangers in the city, the hotels beinl
full to overAowing. The Metropolitan

S0- The item published in the Echo,
last week, stating that the new postage
law reduced postage on letters to one
cent, was an error. We obtained our
information from the New York Sunday

matters; but wrong for once. The
new law does not effect letter postage.
