The Philadelphia Age Of Thursday says
in regard to the charge. that after the
English steamer Bombay had run into the
American steamer Oneida, she dad not
stop to offer assistance to the crippled
ship, although the guns Of the latter were
fired to attract attention and notify the
officers of the Bombay that a disaster had
happened. We prefer not to believe this
at present. The cases are rare in
deed where one sailor will not assist an
in the dark hours Of peril and dan
ger. The passengers on the Bombay de-
clare they neither heard any request for
assistance from the Oneida, or any guns
dred, and the captain has asked for a
court-martial 10 put all the facts in a
proper light before the community.

Anew York dispatch of yesterday says
the steamer Glad Tidings brings a paper
containing an account of a horrible and
mysterious affair in Spain, which, it says,
it would not believe had not the details
been confirmed by letter from its own
correspondent. The story is that on Feb
ruary 18th a band of people broke into q
house at Aliciara village, near Valencia,
in the morning, by making a hole in the
roof. The owner OF the house was a Mr..
Boluda. He was in bed with his wife.
The invaders pulled them out of bed, put
gags in their mouths, and then went to
the rooms where six children were sleep
-Lor, tlu.-- ho-,,J nth eor1s and
then in sight OF their parents tore out
their tongues. Afberward theycut of the
feet of MI. BoIuda and his eldest son,
named Vincent, but purposely left a ten
don near the heel answered they then
hung them up, head downward. After
this they ransacked the larder and made a
good breakfast, jeering at their victims all
the time, and left the house at daybreak.
Two of the Williams have been arrested.
The question Of the 4" Bible in the Com
mon Schools " is exciting a great deal Of
attention in New York. a dispatch from
that city yesterday says: Rev. DR.. Clarke,
Of the 43d street Presbyterian Church,
Iectured last evening upon the subject of
the Bible in b public schools, made a
severe arraignment of the Roman Catho-
lies, and asserted that the aus of this
s-ectarian movement was that the Papacy,
which is growing weak in Europe, seeks
renewed vigor on our soil. He warned
people of divine displeasure IN seeing
Gods word banished from the schools.
Rev. Hepworth, Of the Church Of the
Messiah, preached last evening on the
same subject. Previous to the sermon, a
petition 10 the Legislature against sec
tartan grants was circulated in the con-
gregatiOn for signatures. Mr.. Hepworth
considered that we were on the verge of a
revolution, whose results would be more
important than anything occurring in
American history since the Declaration Of
Independence. He said his principle was
his bottom dollar for the public schools,
but not one cent for s~ectarian grants.
