The English lteStnn -NDwj0g Neus says:
Upwards Of eighty years ago, in the win
ter Of l714 a vessel boun from Spain was
totally lost, with her entire crew, by Icing
| driven, in a stormy night, on tie rocks at
Gunwalioe, in Mounts BRy. The vessel
was known to h We an jnlaalse quantity OF
specie on board in Spanish pillar dollars,
ana ever since, after violent gales, dollars
have been picked Up in the neigh borhood Of
the wreck. Two or three companies have
hcen formed for recovering the bulk of the
silver, which is known to lie deposited with
in a very cipcumscGibcd area; but the under
t2klDgS were rot vigorously pursued, and
alter time were abandoned. One Of these
parties, mary years since, attempted to re-
cover the treasure by means OF sinking a
shHit in the rock inshorc, and driving an
edit from It's bottom seawarl to get under
the spot where 1t WAS supposed the hull of
the vessellay imheddcd in sand, shinglo, &c.,
but this was abandoned without result. -
Lately a company has been formed, and
they have decided on making another at
tempt. They have communicated vii the
Admiralty, and received formal permission
TO prosecute the wo k, and this aumnerth V
hope to secure the long coveted silver Mr..
John 10y went last week with two men to
the place which ever since the wreck has
borne the name Of Dollar Cove, and the tide
being low, they proceeded to clear up the
mouth of the old Shalt. 1t was filled in to
the depth Of about Fix feet with large
bowlders aud shingles, and they had not
worked long before they picked up eight
dollars. Two orthrcc We're brightly secured

The conservative men of the Republican
party who support johnson and oppose the
revolutionary disuniouiSts of Congress, now
have an excellent opportunity to get posi-.
tons under the government There arc
scores OF Postmasters, Assessors, Collectors,
Marsh!als, etc, who oppose the President
and who will be turned out to give place for
the Presidents friends and supporters when
aver Proper representation Of the matGer is
made to headquarters Democrats do not
watt these positions; but Republicans who
are opposed to negro equality and di union,
out to get up petitions, setting forth the
facts and have thc proper changes made. -
Several changes have already been made in
different parts ofthe country, and more will
be made whenever and wherever the pres-
dents friends ask for it. 1t is right that
the offices in the gift of the government
should be used in its favor and the disloyal
men who are now u-iDg the positions against
the President and government, ought to be
removed for other and better men who will
not abuse the confidence of the nation.

The Aao York 7t,Juae insists that the
extreme men in the Republican party did
begin right. First they treated the slaves
as "con'rabands of war, then they abolish
ed slavery in the District Of Columbia, then
they enrolled them in the army; then they
abolished slavery by constitutional amend
ment; then they placed the Civil I}iQllts
OF the Blacks under the protection of Fed

therefore, really is: Shall sufrase be cen.

The New York 2tmess states that two hun
dred thousand people-bache and young
men--live at dining saloons and eating
houses in the city of New York. As late
ly as 1850 the number Of these saloons
could be counted on ones fingers. and
were located below Canal street. Now they
arc everywhere, uptown" as well as
on lower Broadway, the Bowery and Chath-
am street. They are Increasing rapidly, but
not faster than the hungry customers who
patronize them. The reason is principally
found in the high price of board and house
rents. Young men find it cheaper to their
purses to rent room, and breakfast and
dine at large. Whether it is cheaper for
heir morals, the Times raises question.

A DREAM.
BY ALICE GARY.


Idrearned had plot of ground,
Once VIII II CHANGED asleep TO drop.
And that a green hedge fenced it round,
Cloudy with roses at the top.
/ saw hundred mornings rise, Eta-
So far little dream may reach;
And Spring, with Summer in her eyes,
Making the chiefest charm of each.
A thousand vines were climbing o'er,
The hedge, | thought, but as tried "a.
To pull them down, forever more
The flowers drort OF the other side!
Waking, I said, these things are signs
Sent to instruct US that It's ours
Duly to keep and dress our vines,
Waiting in patience for the flowers.
And when the angel feared of all
Across my hearth its shadow spread,
The rose that climbed my garden wall
Has bloomed the other side, said.
