THE CITY OF BRUSSELS.

There OF the City OF Brussels yesterday.
Many theories advanced TO the cause OF the
delay In her ARRIVAL and but few persons believed that
tho detention was the result OF anything more
than broken machinery. Dutch bark which arrived
at port yesterday morning reported meeting heavy
leo fields of the banks of Newfoundland. The long!-
tude and lNitude not taken, but the bark's
course was in all probability moro northcry
steamers II was thought by some that the
City OF Brussels may have been caught In some Ice
field with her broken machinery. An acceptance OF
that theory would entirely explain tho steamer being
overdue.
Al office OF the company there seems TO be little
anxiety the missing steamship. Dir. John q.
Dale the agent Of the line, stated that the steamer
probably making hcr way toward England under sail,
and word OF her might be expected at any time Many
and the olce OF HERALD, but the steamer is
sufficiently overdue as yet TO make improbable any OF
the theories thus lar brought forward

mite cartridges blast of several cartridges had

THE SHEPPA"D AsY .UM AND 'HE MCDoNoCI IN

paper as follows with reference, to two weil-koow1
baltimore county Institutions:
"Messrs. Editors Moses Sheppard has been

and the will of neither of these great philanth
1ists is being yet carried out.
"The Sheppard Asylum, huge unfinished stree
ture looms up huge, lowering and untenaated, the
centre of 375 acres of land, all yet waiting TO be
utilized. Not a single patient has yet received.
Why is it so?
'The McDo1ogh Institute is yet unJult, with
n apparent prospect of the present 5oai oft us

jule shelters fifty boys, whilst the OF ,be funds

1t is evident that "Justce" don't know what
he's talking about. Had he signed bis communi-
