From New York.
Facts about the .sStafe If =,

Facts about the estate Of Maine.''
New York, April 2O.-The steamer Old
Colony, Captain Brown, which left Newport
last evening about nine o'clock, arrived
here at half-past seven this morning, hav-
ing on board her usual full complement of
passengers from Boston, and also one hun
dred and forty passengers taken from the
State of Maine at midnight in Long Island
Sound off Bartlett Reef. The following
facts were obtained from Captain Borden
OF the State of Maine, also from Henry L.
Bacon, Clerk of the same steamer, and G.
N. Turner, conductor of the New London
Wooster Line. From the statement of
Captain Borden it appears that en- the trip
from New York to New London, on Thurs
day night, when within three miles of New
London, the steamer State of Maine ran on
the rocks at Eastern Point, going on, how
ever, so easily that even the passengers on
board knew nothing of the fact until after
she had laid there nearly al hour. The
rock at the place where she struck is quite
shelving and apparently no great damage
was received. After laying there for about
two hOure the steam ferry boat, plying
across the river from New London, pulled
the steamer off. They landed her eastward
bound passengers at New London.
On examination Captain Borden found
tina me steamer was leaking slightly, from
the fact that her ~forefoot was split about
three feet below the water line. Canvas
was placed over the leak outwardly, and
other measures were taken to prevent any
further leakage while lying at her dock
during the day. On Friday the leak was
hardly perceptible. So slight did it appear
that Captain Borden did not think it neces- |
to take any further steps at repairing
until after he should have arrived at New
York. On the arrival of the Boston train
at New London the passengers went on
board, and the State of Maine left at
about 1880 for New York. After being out
an hour from New London it was found
that the steamer was making water consid-
erably fast. and the steam pumps were put
to work. Some 10 inches were then in her
hold. After an examination, Capt. Borden
deemed it best to stop and await the pas
sage ofsome one of the sound boats to whom
TO transfer his passengers. The steamer
Old Colony, of the Newport line, soon after
signaled by means of rockets, and
hauled along side at the request of Captain
Borden, Capt. Brown, of the Old Colony,
had everything in readiness, and promptly
sook every measure prompted by the antic-
of what might prove TO be a serious

here were $50 passengers on the.clerk's list.
including some 30 ladies and some 10 or II
infants and child en-. At the time of part
ng company with the State of Maine, there
but four inches of water in her, and it
vas found that while laying still the leak
vas hardly perceptible. Captain Borden
leelded to follow on to this city under easy
team.

The Tribune's Eastport special says there
is no border war, and has been none. No
fights occurred at Calais, nor did the Fen
ians capture any English flag. There is no
excitement on this side the boundary. The
presence of a few Fenian organized circles,
coupled with provincial confederation
schemes is the foundation for the sensation,
and the special dispatches sent to New York
papers are ~villainously false, and they have
drawn hither many strangers who came to
join in the strife.

will officially explode the bubble.

A Washington special to the World SAYS
The Ways and Means Committee have
finally overcome the obstacles which pre-
sented themselves relative to imposing a
tax of five per cent. on cotton. The bill
was agreed upon to-day and will be re-
ported as soon as it can be arranged. The
difficulty has been in regard to collecting
the tax, but this has, in the minds of he
Committee, been obviated.
The General Tax bill, with all its reduc-
tons and notifications, will not be ready to
report before the first Of next week. 1t is a
very elaborate bill and has cost tie Com
mittee 8 vast deal of time and trouble, and
1t is made as near perfect as such a measure
can be.

CAUSES OF H1aH Pa1cEs The high priic

GArsFss OF HIGH PRICES. high price
re al commodities is due TO the excessive re-
aundancy of iDconvertible paper currency,
which is almost made a legal tender for all pur-
poses The plain legal tenders or greeDbacks
amount TO four hundred and fifty millions OF
dollars and the National Bank notes are paya-
bic in these legal tenders, which, in effect,
makes them all legal tenders.
The aggregate amount of paper currency is
not less than seven hundred aud fifty millions; !;
and if it was doubled tomorrow, all prices
would be doubled II it Wasreduced one half,
all prices would, other things being equal, be
Secretary Chase that the greenback currency,
war, would be retired upon the advent of peace,
and that the three hundred millions of Nation
al Bank currency would supply a sufficient
circulating medium, and be convertible into
specie Three hundred millions is as large a
sum in paper as can be sustained on a specie
I basis That is the opinion OF Secretary Nc.
Culloch, as expressed in his report on the fnan-
ces. But the greenbacks are not to be with
drawn They cannot be withdrawn under the
loan act except at the SLOW rate OF ten millions
for the first six months, aud seven millions
month afterwards. Contraction OF the curren-
cy was thought to be as easy matter as its ex-
pansion. All nations have found this to be an
error; and the laws Of finance are as applicable
to us and to our condition as to other nations
in other times. Contraction Of thepape cur
rency must he gradual and slow, and therefore
prices of merchandise, and the general cost of
living, will come down, but very slowly and
gradually, owing, not to currency contraction,
nor to fall in gold, but to overimportation
and manufacture. Sunday Herald.

CIVIL R1GHTs BILL. There have been seve-
occurrences within the past three or four days
which, tits expected, will bring beforeth the courts
of this city the question as to what are the
rights Of colored persons The first was that
of colored man, on Friday, taking a seat
among other passengers in, one of the York
road railway cars. The conductor invited him
to 60 to the front platform, where colored per
sons had always the privilege Of riding. He
insisted on his right to remain in the car, but
the conductor, as also the other passengers, re-
oured him to leave. He noted down the num-
bcl Of the car and then departed, On the
same night James Williams, colored, appeared
at the ticket office Of the Holiday Street Thea
ter and asked for a ticket The agent, on
learning from him that it was for himself, re-
fused to sell ticket He went out on the
sidewalk and acted in such disorderly man
ner as to compel Policeman Ray to conduct
him to the Middle District Station, whence
Justice Spicer, after an examination, the next
morning commmitted himto Jail. On Satur-
day night colored man, name not learned,
appeared at the Eastern District Station,
claiming protection He stated that be had
gone into gubtic house on Eastern, or Can
ton avenue and asked for driuk but the
proprietor refused him the liquor. He claim
ed that as a citizen he was entitled to the same
privileges as white men. Neither the officer
IN charge or the magistrate could afford bim
the protection asked for, and consequently he

A Word 10 THE SENATE OF TIE
UNITED STATES. is the caption Of an
article in the New York Evening Post.
a Republican journal, as all know,
from which we republish the following
rebuke of 8 recent act Of Gov Brown
low:
The Senate yesterday permitted it
self to be outraged by the reading of
q most indecent dispatch from Cover
nor Brownlow, Of Tennessee. TO J. ".
Forney, the secretary Of the senate,
which dispatch, it seems, Mr. Forney
had previously published in his paper
We hope the senate will vet vindicate
It's self-respect by Diminishing from his
place of secretary q person VINO could
thus violate the decencies Of life, and
show such fragrant disrespect to the
office Of the chief magistrate, as he
did by making public Gov. Brown
lows dispatch The senate owes it to
its own dignity, and to the preserva-
ton of the public morals, to relieve
from duty Immediately, an officer who
has so little sense Of propriety and
decency as AR. Forney has Just shown.
"Goy. Brownlow Is, perhaps, be
yond reform; he has grown up in a
community where it seems to have
been the unfortunate habit of poIiti-
clans to appeal to the passions Of the
people rather than their common
sense. He is certainly a great scoId;
but we remember many other south
ern men who misused their tongues in
the same manner We hope one Of
the results of the "ncw order Of
things" will be the substitution Of APP
pesls TO the reason for such vulgar
personalities.
