The Belgian Ship Vlcrgc Mar1e Ashore on
Long Island Beach.
The firm Of Rischmuller Loescher, No. 70 Green
witch street in this city, received intelligence yesterday
morning that the ship Verge Marie from Antwerp bound
to New York, shore on Long Island beach
appears that the verge Marie Belgian ship, sailed
mand of Capt C. suykens She had on board cargo OF
French and Belgian goods, and from one hundred and
twenty five TO one hundred and thirty passengers Be-
fore she days several Of the passengers
ckened, and when she received her pilot twenty
Of them had died, either from ship fever cholera.
The Verge Marie proceeded her voyage until early
on Thursday morning, when she took pilot II was
soon after found that she had sprung alcak suddenly
and was making water very fast. The leak gained so
rapidly that it considered prudent both by the
pilot and Captain Suykens to her ashore This was
accordingly done and the vessel took ground on the
south side. of Long Island about twelve miles east Of
Montauk light.
Messrs. Rischmuler Ioescher received intelligence
Of the disaster about eight O'Clock yesterday morning
and Immediately despatched the steam tug Mercury to
the aid Of the ship and the relief Of the passengers The
Mercury had ample supply of bed clothing and provi
sons board and there little doubt entertained
yesterday evening but the people would reach New York
in comfort during last night
At the Of latest advices the Verge Marie had
eight feet Of water in her hold but the weather
very mild and it considered certain that the Mer
curry could reach enough TO take away all her pas
sengers in a short space of time.

A round number Of mil ions might be suggested
without fesr Of exaggeratioD. Now, the ques-
ton is what has produced this depreciation and
how is it to end!
Every one has some neighbor who spends ten
thousand on an income O. ihree, keeps car
rage when he rea ly cannot efford to keep q
dog, and contracts with gardeners, builders and
masons t. be 'utify aid enlarge his residence
when it was before too l,r 9 for him This is
precisely the story of the United States during
the years lS5O-lS54. During all this time, we
have been living hey ond our means. In our
homes we have disola ed iuxory for which
we could not pay. In our business we have
extended our operations far beyond the
limits of our capital. In our public enterprises
especially W. have conceived and planned and
set to work on scale which ten times our re-
sources would not have enabled US to main
tain. We have built ten times as many miles
of railroad as we wanted. We have built them
badly and cheaply so that the expense ofkeep-
ing them in repair soon exceeds their original
cost. In our breathless haste to grow rich, we
have insisted on dividends when every man of
sense could see that they had not been earned;
hence new debts, crushing our greatest enter
prises to the earth, and, by destroying their
credit, diminishing their resources All our
plans as well In our public enterprises as in our
individual business and our domestic style Of
living have been predicated on conviction
that the prosperity and credit of 1850 was to
last for ever. We have all along acted as
though we were to have every year some fresh
Californian discovery.
As matter of course, all this has led to q
sudden stoppage. A day has come when we
could make no more money, nor borrow any
Savings we had none even in the height of our
spring tide we were in debt to the world and
the future. How terrible that debt when the
ebb came!
The whole edifce Of the commercial world
railroads, banks, corporations and individual
Housewives based upon system Of credit
exorbitant unwarranted credit. The moment
that foundation was knocked away-as it was
sure to be the first time commercial trouble
came-the superstructure fell with crash to
the ground. We have nothing left now but
the foundation and the corner stone upon
which to build up new enterprises. All else is
gone.
