Steamboat Disas1er-Loss of Life,

New YORK, April 1S.-The steamer Oty of
NO1Soich, of the New London and New York
line, came in collision with the schooner General
s. Van VRet, off Huntington, at nine O'Clock this
morning. The schooner struck her amidships,
cutting her through, The water rushing in her
lifted her fires, so that they communicated to
the woodwork, and she was entirely destroyed
She had about fifty persons on board, about
forty of whom were saved by boats from the
steamer Electra, from Providence, and brought
here. The remainder are supposed to be lost.
The schooner was abandoned in sinking con-
dition, and the captain and crew taken on board
the Electra. The latter remained by the wreck
nearly two hours, and until all was done that
could be to save the lives of those on board the
burning wreck.

read and write. A read-and-write test wonld
cut down the Democratic vote terribly, no
doubt; still, we must pronounce this last charge
baseless. inasmuch as there is no evidence
to show that the Republicans favor universal
suffrage with any such ulterior motive as the
Ne,os asserts; or that, if universal suffrage
should once prevail, any such reaction as pre-
dicted would take place. The first two
counts may stand, but this last will have to
be given up.

pressed in the same fashion. To the ques-
tion, 'Are you human being? silence was
preserved; but when asked, Are you a
spirit? the answer was two loud raps. 1t
was finally ascertained that the. lSnockings
proceeded from the spirit of pedder, who
had been robbed and murdered on the pre-
mises several years before.
And from these small beginnings arose that
gigantic denomination. 1t has extended with
wonderful rapidity, and now has its disci ples
in every community. OF the accurate number,
or even approximate size of these followers,
we cannot speak. They may be immense in
number, or only comparatively small. We
are inclined to believe that those who are
actually spiritualists number but a few thou
sand, while those who are tincCured with the
faith are a much larger number. The fact
that the society only supports four weekly
newspape in he country, is evidence of its
not being so enormous as British writers evi-
IDENTIFY believe. We would wish that in the
new census some data might be inserted.
The article in the Edinburgh is rather a
satire than a history. But it is eminently
calculated to show this modern mania in the
proper and ridiculous light in which it should
appear.

The s.News,, on Suffrage.

THE New York Daily Netbs has a new in
dictment against the Republican party.
namely, that it is opposed to the principle of
universal suffrage. 1t briggs forward, in sup
port of this charge, the fact that the Republi-
cans throw safeguards around the purity of
the ballot-boX in the shape OF registry laws
and the like. AS this interferes with the
Democratic principle OF "oOting early and
Uoting often," it OF course initiates against
universal suffrage, especially the UNIVERSAL
suffrage OF the repeaterS and baIlot-bor
suffers.
Another fact is, that under the recent CEN
sus New York city does not get quite so
large representation in the Legislature as
she would like Her population was too large
when a draft of soldiers to fight the Rebels
was to be made. Now, when she would con-
troll the legislation of the State, it is, unior-
tunately too small. This, too, proves that the
Republicans are opposed to universal suffrage.
Finally, the Republicans, as the Nelos asserts,
favor the universal extension OF the suffrage
simply that it may operate as an overdose
upon the body-politic, and that, in the ensuing
reaction, the basis of suffrage may be finally
fixed upon intelligence, such as the ability to

A MERITED TRIBUTE.-It would seem
as though the well known benevolence of Phi
ladelphia is at last recognized and respected
by even those who have been constantly ira
during her. Ever since the conclusion of the
war, in tact, long before that event. the ladies
OF our city have been accustomed to devote
their time 20 alleviating the suf1erings of the
freedmen by furnishing them with food and
particularly clothing. For this labor of cha
rity they nave been exposed to the sneers of
the Democratic newspaper in our midst, and
have had all their actions viewed with contempt
by the sympathizers with the disloyal South
ern whites.
The Southerners themselves, however, have
seen the beneficial results of our liberality,
and the last number of De Bolo'S ReUie,1
contains a grateful tribute to Philadelphia
philanthropy. When it is remembered that
De B0W'S is the mouthplece and oracle OF the
best class of reconstructed society, the COM
pliment can be appreciated. The April num-
ber says:-
There is here one institution, however, that
cannot be too highly commended. That is

supported by an ASSOCIATION OF Philadelphia
