COLLISION IN CHESAPEAKE BAY,-Nme Liccs
Lost-We extract the following from the Baltimore
Evening American, Of. the 18th
About ocloclI, on Tuesday morning, the steamer
Monmoat.. bound to this port from York river, was
run VITO off the Wolftrap Light, by the brig Wind
Sydrd, hence for New Orleans, by which she was COM
pIetev disabled. The brig struck her amidships,
carrying away the larboard wheel and wheelhouse,
and displacing the shaft from its position besides
and her captain was obliged to put her into Norfolk
for repairs. Finding that he could notproceed Capt.
Dansey of the Monmouth, cut his anchors with view
to wait for the Gladiator, by which he hoped to be
towed to New Point. That steamer passed and she
gRas heard but could not be seen but for few
minutes, in consequence OF the thickness OF the tos
phere.
Rhe crew began to construct RATS as the only hope
of safety, and before the steamer Louisiana, from
Norfolk, on her upward trip reached her, there was
nothing visible but abortion of her upper works and
the was breaking over her. Capt Russell deter
mined TO do everything possible for the sufferers and
deserving raft with number of persons on 1t dis
matched two Of the boats to their rescue. They had
not proceeded far when one of them swamped, but
the other Kept up and was not long in saving eleven
persons which the raft contained. Two other RATS
were overtaken, one of which held two persons and
the other one all of whom were safely placed on deck
of the Louisiana and properly cared for Two or three
of those rescued were in an exhausted condition and
but for the timely succor afforded them would have
persisted Learning that Captain Hewitt, Of the
schooner Ada, of this port, was on raft, and that
eight persons left on board the Monmouth, Capt
Russell ran up to her but person was to be seen,
and there is fears entertained that they all persisted
When the steamboat struck the conclusion so
great that her smoke pipe was thrown down, so that
al hope if her machinery was not injured for work
ing her to land was lost. At 7 o'clock on Wednesday
evening the steamboat went down, after lying at
anchor for thirty-eght hours.

HOLD THAT MAN.--Wil somebody hold Pike Of
she Baton Rouge Comet The way he is going on
is absolutely dangerous to the well being Of the COM
monwealth !! He must be stopped in his mad career.
Just hear him talk as he talked in his Comet Of the
2Ist inst. as@ 5s
THe IV7tite House-This being the capital Of the
Sugar Bowl State it has occurred to us, singuary
inappropriate to have the principal building white
washed yellow. Within the past two weeks, the
Penitentiary has changed its coat, and now wears
spotless garments Of white which make it stand ont
on the landscape Verify we believe that it now has
more honest men within its walls than can be found
without This is rather a bold assertion, but may
with much plausible logic, be maintained The
White House y is occupied by none but honest men
fellows who do whatever duty is assigned them
,ueun Whether it be moulding brick, weaving
bagging, or hemp picking, or spinning rope, they
apply themselves vigorously to the work, to the
credit of themselves and the country. There are no
noisy politicians here, which are the pest of society
elsewhere. Motley are all conservatives, because
they are all satisfied that they need not expect ap-
pointment to office, whether Mr.. Fremont is elected
or not Honest men Pious men! Why they have
prayers every Sunday morning and after praying for
themselves, they do not forget to ask blessing for
all the balance Of mankind it only makes the prayer
little longer Will some one please deny US. for the
sake Of opening a CONTROVERSY on a moral pont-to
allay political excitement? We say there are more
honest men in the penitentiary at this moment than
can be found in all the balance Of the Sugar Bowl
State-rom the centre of its gravity to the rim
thereof. ~ as5#

a New LIGHT IN ENGLISH LITERATURE.-The
london Press says that all the readable articles in
Household Words are written by a young fellow
named Sala This young literary Bohemian, as we
have heard from other sources is most remarkable
instance of literary mimic and his ecundity is not
less marvellous than his initiative talents He writes
so much in the style of either Dickens Or Thackeray
that it would take sharp critic to distinguish the
false from the real author; and what is marvel
9ys still is his faculty of initiating popular actors
People have wondered at the fertility of invention
and industry Of Dickens, in writing so many Of the
same time engaged in writing his % Bleak House ;"
and " Little Dorrit." But the secret of his wonder
tnl fertility is explained by the announcement of the
lact mat ne has an admirable Criehton in his pay
VINO acts as his double. This literary joufneyman is
the son Of Mime Saa, a theatrical ncrtarmcr.
