Steamship Central America, with Five
Hundred Passengers on board,
FOundered mt Sea-.

Great anxiety has prevailed for two or
three days past, on account of the non ar
rival. at New York, of the steamship Central
America, from Aspinwall and Havana, having
on board the California mails. and nearly two
millions of dollars in specie, 1f0e hundred aud
taosnty fire passengers, and one hundred and
ttcenty four officers and crew. 1t was known,
that she sailed from Havana on the Sth, and
that, Immediately after one of the most terri
Bile storms ever known, came on, and lasted
four days.
On Thursday night, telegraphic dispatch
from Charleston, announced that the Norwe-
gian barque Eloise, had been spoken off Cape
Hatteras, having on board forty passengers of
the steamship Central America, who stated
that the Central America foundered on the
18th inst, with over five hundred passengers
on board, only sixty of whom were saved.
No further information was obtained from
this source, on the subject.
A dispatch from Norfolk, yesterday after.
noon, announces the arrival of the Eloise, at
that port, and that she rescued fifty passen-
gers, twenty.six of them females. 1t also in
formed that twenty-six females were taken
from the steamer, by another vessel, previous
to her being fallen IN with by the Eloise. The
officers of the steamer were all lost, except
one. The specie, about two millions, was all
lost. The rescued passengers were immedi-
ately forwarded to New York, by the steamer
Empire City.
Another dispatch, from Savannah, stated
that the barque Saxony had arrived at port,
with four passengers saved from the steamer
Central America.
She also reported, that the brig Mariner, Of
Boston, had picked up forty others, chiefly
women and children.
The names of the four saved by the Saxony
are: ar
H. H. Childs, of the firm of Childs &
Dougherty, New York.
Jabez Howes, of the firm of George Howes
& Co., San Francisco.
George w. Look, of Maine.
Adolph Frederick, of San Francisco.
The Central America had on board, the
passengers, mails, and specie, which left San
Francisco August 29th. She left Havana on
the 9Th inst, and, after struggling with the
winds and waves for four days, she sue
cumbed to their violence.
The Central America was not a new steam
er, but the old George Law, which was over
hauled, reconstructed, and renamed few
months since. She was built in 1852, and is
said, by the New York papers, to have been
considered very staunch boat. She was a
large side wheel steamer, with but small
spread Of canvas, and was commanded by
Capt. Herndon, who is an able aid expert
enced seaman.

The ANGLO SAXON RAoE.-Of all the races
which, at this day, occupy the scene of the
world, the most active, and that which pos
sesses the greatest weight and influence, is
unquestionably, the Anglo race.
Other nations may be more brilliant than
England and the United States; they NAV ex.
hibit more external glory; but, no one, if
looked at closely, can be considered so neces-
sary as both these people, The Anglo Saxon
and Anglo-American races form one of the
most important springs of the great political
machine of the universe; without it would
perish, or be abandoned to the contempt of
the future, some of the most important facts
of history, and some of those moral notions,
which are so essential to humanity.
Without England and America, Protes.
tantism would exist no longer. Had Protes.
tantism no other support than that of Ger
many. we would see it now expiring in delir-
ium and in blasphemy, amidst the laughter
of other nations. Without the example af-
forded in England, the French revolution
would not only be anethamatized, but aban-
doned as without reason, and full Of incohe-
rent extravaganza. Had it not been for Eng
land, America would, on its discovery, have
fallen back into the barbarism in which
Spanish vessel found it. 1t is owing to
England, that the glorious discovery of CO.
lumbus has not proved useless, and accounts
for great human fact, and for service rem
dered to moral order, and not merely a dis
eovery interesting to science and cosmology,
1t is England, who. at this day, prevents
nations from falling upon and devouring one
another, and who maintains the equilibrium
Of the continent, by the fear of having to
measure strength with SO formidable an adj
versary. Thus her very egotsm is useful,
for it protects our repose. 1t is she who
crosses the projects Of Oriental Europe, and
says to the two Scavic races :--''rhus far shall
We 60, and no further" What a destiny /!
Her form and power are absolutely necessary
to the moral order of the world. Let us lay
aside all national prejudces and patriotic
pride. Many nations, of apparently more
Importance, might disappear, and which
seems to be more Immediately interested in
the maintenance Of modern civilization, but
there is not one whose death would leave
such terrible results as that of the solitary,
the egotistical, and Independent England

SUCCESS OF CHINESE SUGAR CANR.-A few
days ago we gave variety Of facts to show
that the question of making grained sugar
from the Chinese cane had been satisfactorily

1t yields about three barrels to the arpent-
a measure which is not quite an acre-five

A Hartford paper says that on Mon
day George .. Evarts of Simsbury, CT, had
his lower jaw fractured, and seven teeth
knocked out by the kick of a horse, received
while riding in wagon. The horse then
commenced running, but he succeeded in
stopping and quieting him, and, driving home.
He set the broken jaw himself, and replaced
the teeth, before the arrival of a physician.
Tough story.
On Thursday, Mrs. Rosa Rock of
Providence, was engaged in boiling some tur-
pentine for the purpose of making some salye,
the turpentine boiled over, setting the com
tents OF the kettle in blaze. Mrs. Rock was
severely burned on her face and arms, and
her two little boys, aged two and three years,
were burned, one slightly, and the other, it is
feared, fatally.
Sixty-nine new members entered Am

THE SoReHUM.-We have at our office speci-
men of syrup, as thick, heavy, and sweet, as the
best sugar-house molasses, which was made from
the sorghum, or Chinese sugar-cane, of this
years growth, by Mr.. Darius Rice, one of our
most intelligent, careful, and thrifty farmers.
Mr.. Rice has raised a considerable quantity of
the cane, and is entirely satisfied, from the ex-
periments already made, Of the great value to the
country of this new agricultural product. He is
confident that it will ripen in any place and sea-
son that will ripen our common Indian corn. Mr..
Rice will go more extensively into the culture,
next year. 1t is his intention to present speci-
mems of the syrup for exhibition, at the Mechan-
next week.
