MRssas EDTTons :-I feel itfncumbent upon me
asan officer Of the late Steamer Express, aud the
only one residing In this community, to make .
plain statement offaeis in connection with her
Los, hoping that time having cooled The general
excitement, ile public mind may now be in con-
dition 10 form ealmer and jusisr Judgment.
With this object in view IFespeetfally solicit the
uss Of yOur columns Scr that PuEpOse.
Since my return home, ! have heard with deep
regret and pain, reprOaeh unjnstly cast upon the
conduct Of the owners, officers and those con-
cerned In the management of the vessel.
The Express sailed a little after 4 o'clock on
her regular day, being detained q few minutes in
taking on freight, which arrived late, and With
out The slightest interference on the part Of own
ess or others TO detain her. The weather had
beea EAir during the evening, bat was beginning
to cloud q little, with the wind from the East
ward, bat with no signs Of approaching storm,
and not Storm Signal was shown. Knowing
ne did the vessel to be staanch and strong,
neither saw nor apprehended danger. The wealth
er continued cloudy, and about 10 O'Clock ID
commenced to rain, ut least was awakened about
that time, and heard q raining, but with very
Iittleinerease Of the wind. Il was not until
IL 30 O'Clock that was aroused BY the heavy
roll Of the seA, and got up to End thestOrm upon
us
The storm or cyclone burst HpOn Us, with such
fury and violence. that mans efforts were futile
to arrest the consequence and the result that fol-
lowed. For Eve mortal hours the Express with
stood the wringing and wrencbing Of the raging
storm, and justified to the fullest my opinion Of
her sea-worthiness. None but an eyewitness
could comprehend aud appreciate the terrific and
terrible force Of this to me unprecedented hurri-
cane. with those facts known 10 me, and all on
board the vessel, no censure or reproach can
rightly be sustained, or even intimated, without
being more reflection and FeprOaeh upon Gods
mysterious and wonderful workings than any
shortcomings or lack Of iorethought and judg-
ment on the part Of man.
An Investigation OF an the circumstances at
tending the disaster was held at the custom house
in Baltimore by the proper authorities, and AZ
ter all the evidence adduced, the Inspectors ex-
pressed themselves satisfied that Capt. Barker
and bis crew had done everything In their. pow
er to avert the calamity.

judging from their former political anil
iations, Il is safe to infer that 8 Of these
Greenbackers win, on mere party d.
visions, vote with the Democrats, and
8 with the Republicans. This would
increase the Democrats TO 156, and the
Republicans to 1S7. leaving the Demo-
Gratis with majority Of 10, which is
precisely their majority 10 the present
House. There does not seem TO be
much likelihood OF the choice Of the
next President devolving upon the
House; but sueha contingency is among
the possibilities. In that event each
State would be entitled to one vote
There are 3S States, majority where
of is 90. The recent elections give the
Democrats q majority in 10 States--con-
ced,ng to them Florida, which is doubt
ful, and the Republicans majority in

vided, and therefore unable to vote, the
Democrats would have Q majority OF
