PASS AGE OF THE SCHMIDT.


We copy the following special to the
Louisville Courier Journal:
NEW YORK, March 11.-Captain Garhart
Schweers, of the screw steamer Schmidt,
which arrived from Bremen, to-day, with
345 passengers and crew on board, after
passage of fifty days, reports that after five
days out the weather changed to stormy.
''There was a succession of violent hurri-
canes. lasting thirteen days. On the
eleventh day, February 6, when in latitude
thIrty-one, longitude thirty-two, she was
struck by heavy sea while the screw was
out of water. The engines were disabled,
the follower of the piston was broken, and
the engines were in other respects much in
jured. could not say the hurricane came
around the compass. We were obliged to
lay to for twelve days to repair the
engines. While the storm was raging we
saw two English ships. They saw our en-
sign and read it, but did not give their own
in reply. We also saw large three-masted
steamer. She was bound eastward. She
showed regular steamer lights. We had no
chance to exchange signals, the weather
was 80 bad. We saw her about ten O'clock
at night. OF course we knew nothing about
the long absence OF the City of Boston. At
four O'Clock in the morning the hurricane
increased in fury, but on the second day
after the injury to the engine the storm fell,
and we had fair weather during the rest Of
the passage"
The excitement among the Germans Of
this city over the safe arrival of the missing
steamer ia great. The Office of the agents
has been thronged all the afternoon with
friends and relatives of the passengers.

THE CITY OF BOSTON.
Her Capacity md Architecture.

The screw steamer City of Boston, of the
Inman line, left New York on the twenty
fifth of January, and cleared at Halifax on
the twenty-eighth, for Queenstown and Liv-
erpool. She is a mail steamer, and like
other vessels belonging to the Inman line, is
a remarkably fine specimen OF naval archi-
lecture, having been built under special sur
vey. and has received the highest classifca-
tion at L'oyd's. and also from the Liverpool
Association Of Underwriters.
The City of Boston was frst-class
steamer, excellently built ship-rigged, and
calculated for carrying a liberal amount of
canvas in addition to her steam-propelling
power. Her tonnage was 2,228, old meas
urement, and her two engines were of
three hundred horse power each, and were
capable of being worked up to at least
double that power. The passenger accom-
modations were of the very best description,
the principal saloon being forty.eight feet
long by eighteen wide, and seven feet and q
half high in the ceiling, The staterooms
were very capacious and elegantly fur
nished, and were sufficient in number to
accommodate over a hundred frstclass
passengers, and she contained comfortable
quarters for second and third-class passen.

The City of Boston was built at great ex-
pense, and was one Of the best and finest
steamers afOat,

Memoirs ofthe War of 20.

This standard history of the Revolutionary
wsr in the Southern department of the
United States, has been published by the
University Publishing Company, No. Bond
street. New York, and is sold only by SUBJ
scription. The author is the celebrated
Light Horse Harry" Lee, OF Revolutionary
fame, but his son, General R. E. Lee, has
revised and collected the manuscript, and
probably superintended the publication.
The historical value and interest of this
excellent history make it a work which will
be purchased by all persons who buy books
at all, while its thorough correction and
revision by General Il. E. Lee, and the ad-
dition of his new biography, prepared by
him from private and personal materials
never before given to the public, give it
greatly increased and peculiar interest. The
fact that it is the only book now published,
even in part. from General Lees pen, gives
it an interest possessed by no other work.
Among the new materials introduced in
the biography, are important letters from
President Madison, Generals Lafayette,
Greene and Hamilton, Governor Rutlsdge,
and others; letters to Washington, Madison,
Governor Reed, General Wayne, and others;
and most interesting series of letters to
his eldest son, Charles Carter Lee, III which
his advice aud instruction in regard to his
sons studies, reading and general conduct
are fully given.
The work is handsomely printed and
bound. The engravings and Autographed
maps are engraved in the most artistic
style, and no expense nor care have been
spared in its preparation to make it worthy
| alike of its subject aud its author.
The book is only sold by canvsssiug
sgen,s. who will cali upon the citizens to
OBTAIN their subscriptions.

Our neighboring State to the westward il
evidently on the high road to prosperity,
wealth and power. The Republicans have
recently carried the State by q maximum
majority of about ten thousand. in close
contest, ratified the amendments to the con-
stitution, and sent her senators and repre-
sentatives to Washington to ask for admission
into Congress. As these gentlemen come up
with fair records, and are sent by those who
have nobly done their whole duty at home.
their admission may be considered certain
and speedy.
But the people of that great State of re-
markable resources are not disposed to
pause on the threshold of their march
Having done SO well politically, they are
now concerting measures to promote
the several branches of industry.
An association has been formed
for the purpose OF encouraging improve
ment in stock, mechanics, and agriculture.
A grand State Fair will be held at Houston,
beginning on the seventeenth of May. The
Houston Union says:
All the arrangements for an exhibition, on
q magnificent scale, of all the products Of
the country, have been made, and are here
published. Rules and regulations of tho
most perfect character have been adopted
for the preservation of good order, and for
the promotion of general convenience. The
regulations for animals, entries, awards, e1-
hibitors, premiums, guests, members of the
press, uniforms and tickets are published in
detail.
There are arrangements for ten depart
ments for the exhibition of specimens of
the varied products of the State. These
will be under the charge of suitable persons,
who will doubtless award premiums ac-
cording to the real merits of the articles ex.
hibited.
tbs most pleasing change for the better
to chronicle such proceedings, instead Of
recording disturbances occasioned by law
less men, as it has been heretofore too often
our duty to do. We can assure our friends
in Texas that one State fair ia worth more
to them than revolution or any number OF
guerrilla raids. As for the intimation OF
the Union, that it will set up their fair as O
rival to ours in Louisiana, we have only to
say, we accept the challenge, and shall en-
gage in the friendly contest, with the hope
that both shall win. This may be, and
should be, the logical result. So urge on
the work, gentlemen. We are always ready
for such contests.
