The Proposed Funding BiIl.

The president of an Eastern bank had an
interview with Secretary Boutwell, last week,
relative to the change of bonds for banking
purposes under the new funding bill. He
stated that he held nearly one million of
1881s, and that, pending the conversion of
their capital into the new bonds. they would
lose the interest on the same, to say nothing
of the loss in the market value, by throw
ing SO large an amount of bonds into the
market at the time the change is required
BY the bill to be made. The Secretary re
piled that he did not see any great hard
ship in the casesstated, as a bank could
easily make q loan for few days to
purchase the new bonds, and then sell their
old ones if necessary. AS to- the market
being flooded with bonds, there were only
S225, 600, 600 required to be exchanged in
one year, and, rs this was a rate consider
ably less than 81, 900, 600 per day. he thought
there was no danger but what the invest
ment would cover that amount in that time,
The Secretary said there was no reason to
fear a financial panic from the proposed
change in the securities of the banks, and
could not, therefore, accept the suggestion
that the clause relating to the same IN the
funding bill should be changed. The latter
measure was under discussion to-day by the
Ways and Means Committee, but no conclu
sion was reached.

NEW YORK, March 25.-Captain Bulmer,
of the Helene Marion. arrived at Spithead
In distress, from New York to Antwerp. He
states that he left New York on the same day
q the steamer City of Boston. On the night
Of the twenty ninth of January he met with
= hurricane from southeast to southwest
which, while hove to. took away his toretop
nast and jib boom, although he had no sail
net at the time, and his new sails were taken
completely out of the gasket and blown
away. He believes the City OF Boston must
have been in the same hurricane.
The writer OF letter from Halifax says
"The City of Boston, which sailed on the
tweuty-eighth of January last, has not yet
arrived in Liverpool. There is great anxiety
felt here for her safety, more especially as
there are SO many OF our merchants on
board.
"She was deeply laden with wheat in
bags. being eighteen or twenty lhcnes
deeper than the insurance aloWs. one
sailed from here on Friday noon, and we
had fearful snow storm on the following
Rafnrdav night. If she encountered this
there is no hope whatever OF her turning up.
I believe she was in it, as the Orontes.
which sailed from here two days before, was
caught in it off Newfoundland and nearly
wens down"
The ship Prima Donna, Captain Lunt,
which arrived at this port yesterday, from
Liverpool, reports that on the fourth ihstan! =
ia latitude forty nine degrees north, lo<gi-
tude thlrty-three degrees west, she MADE
out light a half point on her port bow,
which Kept off: and then made out another
light on her lee bow. One was that OF
steamer, and the other that of sailing
vessel. Both vessels were firing rockets
1t is thought that one was short OF pro.
visions, and the other was supplying. AS l!

Tho Oneida.

The following note, addressed to the edl'
tors of the New York Ecening Post, is from
the pen of George W. Blunt, the we'll known
suthor of the "Coast Pilot" g standard
work on navigation, containing sailing
directions for entering and leaving any hsr-
bor of Importance in the world. By ship
masters this book is considered the best
srthority, and Mr.. Blunt may therefore be
presumed to know whereof he afirms:
did not intend to say word on this sad
disaster to the Oneida until the full testl-
nony in relation to 1t had been taken; but
two articles which appeared in the Eren1ng
Post, charging = want Of discipline to our
officers, who can only speak in their justin.
cation before the bar of Omnipotence, have
deck officer went down with the ship, and
that Captain Williams refused to leave her
when going down, is sufficient reputation
of the articles in the Eoening Post.
have endeavofed, with the large Chart OF
Yeddo bay before me, to locate the position
of the two vessels when they first saw each
other, and have come to the conclusion that
the Bombay came into collision with the
Oneida by not keeping her course, but fol-
lowing the rule blindly OF putting the helm
to port: H.,
vas under canvas and it was the business
Of the Bombay to get out of her way.
A similar instance of stupidity took place
off this barber in December, 1868. The
steamer Scotland, bound to Great Britain,
of Fire Island saw a ship near two miles
sonth on her, Instead of the steamer keep
ing on her course, the helm was put hard
sport, swinging her off eight points from
her course, and she ran into the Kate Dryer,
sinking her, with the loss OF thirteen, per-
cons. The Scotland was so damaged that
she returned, but sank On the bar at Sandy
Hook.
OF the brutality of Arthur WELLESLEY Eyre
in not stopping his steamer to see what
damage he had done, and of his falsehood
in stating that he struck ship with the
frame work of the Oneida without feeling it..
it 10 not necessary for me to speak. What
wish to say is, that think great wrong has
been done to our men under the wave WHO
died at their posts. u. W. b.
