The Loss Of the Observation-Disclosures Par
ticuIars.

ticuIars.
Details OF the loss of the Hibernia
and the dreadful sufferings Of those who
were wrecked continue TO come by the mails
from Europe. The last account, which we
published yesterday, was the heartrending
narrative of Mr.. Davies, the second officer Of
the Inflated vessel, who had marvellous
escape in one of the boats. Twelve days and
nights were he and two others in this open
boat, on the ocean. amidst the cold and storms
of winter. All the rest that got on board at
Hrst-a boat ful-had persisted either by suffer-
ing or by the capszing Of the boat when struck
by q heavy sea. One after another Of the poor
souls became mad, and several in that state
Jumped into the sea and were seen no more.
Mr.. Davies narrative is painful in the extreme,
and on reading it we are led TO exclaim. Can
not something be done 10 prevent such fright
ful disasters at sea! There are accidents,
undoubtedly, which no foresight or efforts can
prevent, but there are too many which might
be avoided. Stringent and well executed laws
for the construction and management of ship
ping, aud for all the means of saving life in
case Of disaster, arc needed. A good deal has
been done Of late years to this end, but much
remains to be done. Such frghtful catas-
trophe as this Of The Hbernia should lead to
investigation and. action on the part of the
different governments to prevent as far as
possible the loss of vessels and lives.

THE CONFERENCE ON THE EASTERN CUES
TroN.-This morning we print quite batch Of
news relating to the Eastern question. In
Albania a collision had taken place between
Turks and Greeks Garibaldi had refused

Russia denies having allowed the Greeks to
use her flag. The Sultan refuses to take part
in the conference if the Cretan question is to
be discussed. AT the same time il Is authori-
tatively announced that the details of the con-
ference have been agreed upon and that the
flrst session win be held on Saturday next.

COMMERCIAL ExrRAvAGAYoE AND SPEou-
LATIoN.-The several failures recently re-
ported make it pertinent to inquire whether
great many of our commercial mishaps are
not the result Of extravaganza and specula
ton as much as the effect of business misman-
agement. The members of our great firms
deem II indispensable to their reputation TO
live in the most expensive manner. There
are many houses each partner of which is
provided with distinct establishment, includ-
ing an elegant house, business carriage and
private turnout. The profits are SO nearly
consumed to keep up this display that little is
left to the firm whcrewith to provide a margin
for bad debts and like contingencies Of trade.
Again, when the firm is more thrifty and
gathers surplus, the temptation to put II out
at The extravacant rates Of interest which

THE MORSE BANoUET.-In another place in
this mornings HERALD we give a full account
of the proceedings Of the Morse banquet at
Delmonco's yesterday evening The affair,
up to q certain point, was quite success. II
was right and proper thing for this great
centre of commercial wealth and enterprise to
do honor to man whom the world honors
and whose name will be lastiugly associated
with the most potent agency of modern civil
cation. The speech OF The Professor was in
admirable taste and as reproduced in our
pages is well worthy CT careful pcrusal. II
is difficult, however, TO resist the conviction
that the affair was got mp less for the purpose
Of honoring Professor Morse than Of advancing
the interests of the Western Union Telegraph
Company. The speech Of the president Of
that company was in execrable taste, and that
IL was SO regarded by large section OF the
assembled company was evinced by the num-
bers who rose and retired during its delivery.

The Fisk-Bowle, Controversy.

This personal matter is again before the
public in the shape of a letter from Mr.. Fisk and
a narrative from Mr.. Bowles descriptive Of
his one nights experience in Ludlow street
Jail. Fisk is disposed to be severe and sar-
castle, and Bowles takes Mark Tapley view
of the situation and thinks 1t exceedingly jolly.
The fact is, both parties are wrong in this
business. Bowles should not have made use
of an affecting dispensation of Providence
upon member of Mr.. Fisk's family in order
to make point against his opponent. Fisk
was wrong in taking the unusual steps he did
to secure the incarceration of Bowles in a
common prison, and publicly exulting in the
humiliation consequent thereon. Fisk has
committed another error. He has suffered
himself to appear in print, and his first effort
is blunder. He shows that Bowles' reference
| to his fathers misfortune does not touch him
very deeply, inasmuch as he drags the subject
| again before the public, like Banquo's ghost, to
alright the Springfield journalist. Bowles
seems to have the best temper and to be the best
Judge of human nature. He is far the supe-
rior of Fisk in the management of newspaper
controversy, whatever Fisk may be in con-
Quoting huge financial operations. Therefore,
Fisk had better drop the newspaper man like
hot potato, so far as writing for the press
goes, and after he gets his magnificent opera
house speculation under way stick to that
little financial job Of obtaining fifty thousand
dollars damages upon charges Of libel or any
thing else against newspaper editor.

schools, which have swelled in five or six
years from between one and two millions to
between three and four millions, and desig-
mates so rapid growth in expenditures as
sign of corruption and decay. In another he
warmly applauds the present management of
the schools, which he says is ''all but unani-
mously" in the hands of the democrats. 1t
matters little to- the people what particular
ring happens to have control of public
Observation-Disclosures it be a Greeley ring or
Tammany ring-so long az the money of the
taxpayers is extravagantly or improperly
squaudered. There are some highly respect
able gentlemen among the inspectors and
trustees of the common schools-citizens who
would protect the interests of the city to the
best of their ability if they had the power to
do SO and were moi deceived by less scrupulous
men, But the evil of the present school sys-
TEN may be precisely the point urged by
Greeley in its favor, that the Board is ''almost
unanimously democratic" The best way to
settle the squabbles of the politicians over the
schools would be to take their management
entirely out Of politics by the creation of a
non partisan commission, and then we should
have no complaints of the extravaganza of
local boards and no scrambling after the con-
troll of the system BY any Of the ''rings" on one
side or the other.
