Steamship Disasters.

The appalling loss of life on the Central
EAmerican has no parallel in the annals Of
American steamship navigation. The near
est approach is the disaster which befell the
steamship Arctic, on the 9th Of September,
1854, by which something like three hundred
and City lives were lost, The steamship San
Francisco, belonging to the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, which fonndered in the
Atlantic on the 18th Of December 1853. wa
lost under circumstances similar in many re-
spects to. the disaster which had just occurred
but the number of lives sacrificed was much

fine steamers have been lost, generally of a
smaller class. The Independence, for instance,
was totally lost, with 1870 lives and the Ten
nessee, St Louis, and Yankee Blade, Winfield
Scott and others, became total wrecks. En-

A new Political Secret Society.

The Democratic party, in times past, has
Expressed no small amount Of opposition to Sc
cret political societies; but it would seem, from
recent events. that some Of them are now dis
posed to put in operation the very thing which
they hare hegetofIr e 81 much opposed. A bill
is now before the New Jersey Legislature
presented by Hon J G. Thornton, Of Essex
to incorporate tbs sDemocratic Association,
Of Newark," the provisions Of which. are to al
low said company to pnt up a building and
hold property to the extent of 500, 0oo, more
or less; and have, for themselves and their sue,
%ccssors, all the rights and privileges Of an in
corporaFsa company. One Of the privileges Of
all incorporated companies is TO hold secret
meetings, atwhich no one but members Of the
incorporationhave % right tobe present-henee
we call it a secret society, and its political
character is fully expressed in the title Of the
bill.
The design evidently is to concentrate the
power of the Democratic party Of New Jersey
in the hands of a few aspiring demagogues.

it necessary to give a heightened report Of

Keyport and Matawan bridge; Mr.. Middleton
for an actto prevent cattle running at large
in Upper Freehold; Mr.. Feleh, for an altera-
tionin the marriage laws. Mr.. Fitzpatrick of.
fered a resolution that the Assembly take no
private bill after the 18th Of February. The
Speaker doabted the constitutionality of
such a resolution. After some discussion it
was passed. Mr.. Patterson gave notice. of a
bill to charter Freehold and SmithvilIe Turn

Fire Insurance Company; also, to authorize
the sale of the old church in Turkey school

Death of Orrin Pharo, ESQ.

ORRIS PHaRo, Esq, formerly editor Of the
s'Monmouth Inquirer" died in the city of Phil

nary consumption, aged 36 years,
Mr.. Pharo was editor of the Z Inquirer" for
fifteen years. and at the time of his death was
Treasurer of the editorial association of n. j.
Ills remains were taken to Barnegat, Ocean
County, for burial on Tuesday afternoon. The
Daily Inquirer says:
Mr.. Pharo had many warm and earnest
friends in this Comfy, and wherever be was
known Last March he was attacked with a
severe cold, which fastened upon him and ter
minated his life. OF a truth " in the midst OF
life we are in DEATH" A little while ago, and
he whose death is here recorded, was full OF
life, and hope, and strength, and joy. Then,
: in the serene sky under which he walked, he
saw no clouds; along his path there were, 50
far as he could see, no pitfalls. But suddenly
a bolt fell from the cloudless sky-consumption
seized his victim, and laid him low in death
Upon many a hearth will these few words fall
with a sound dull and heavy as of the clods
upon the coffin lid.
Mr.. Pharo conversed, and was perfectly sen,
sible to the honr of his death. His last words
were, [ am almost gone"

Eraahnld Institute.

We understand it is rumored in various pla-
ces, that in consequence of some pecuniary
difficulties of the Principal of the Freehold
Institute, the school will be broken up. As
Such rumors of themselves have q tendency to
bring about such results, by preventing per-
sons from placing their boys in the school we
think proper to call attention to the subject.
We are informed from reliable sources, that
the school will not, in any event, be broken
up, but that it will be continued as usual.
We hope for the sake Of the Principal, who
has devoted his ~untiring energies to the build.

by any ii the State, and also for the sake Of
our thriving village, which owes its prosperity,
to a great extent, to its well-managed and
prosperous schools, that the Institute viii con-

it has hitherto enjoyed, and which it richly
merits. We have not the most distant idea
Of the School being brought to . termination
it being the interest of all concerned to keep
it up. Our citizens would very much regret
its diseontiauance, IN fact, we have mot heard
