NEW POETRY. "Tort BLAMELESS BEINCE."—EaM9I4 Clarem Stedman, most favorably known ass poet of great delicacy and elegance, if not of the,most massivo strength, issues to-day a nOW vOlume,whiek is , dedicated to his friend of tho, "Songs ' of Sum mer," Richard Henry Stoddard. Mr. Stedman's '"..ce of Monmouth, an Idyl of the Great War," and his previous collection of lyrical and idyllic Poems, have respectively passed into third edi tions.:.; • • The present volume is published by Fields, Osgood & Co., and for sale by Turner Bros. & Co. It its name from the opening poem, a bcentiful idyl about an unblamed, rather than l'blaraciess" Prince, whose native nobility of soul Is only marred by one single peche vcniel, which in pctetic justice is made to bring its own punish ment after it. When the Prince, seeking his soft rendezvous by. stealth in a storm, is thrown and kilted, his wronged queen erects a .wonderful monument in his mmory; and the poem closes in a high, serene measure, as follows : THE ITNYMLING ON THE STATUE. But when the sun was high, the populace BY every gateway filled the roads, and sought The martial plain, within whose central space That wonder of the Yrince's tomb was wrought Thereto from out the nearer land there passed The mingled folk, an 'eager throng and vast; Knights, commons, men and women, young and old, r. The present and the promise of the realm. Onion the corning of the Queen was told, And mounted ,guards with sable plumes at Made tlifou n gb, the middle, like a reaper's swath, A straight, wide roadway for the sovereign's • path: Then TOBEt thelnurmurous sound of her advance, Anoi , with the crown-prince, and her other - 'brood led close behind, she came.

"Alas they cried.,.."loo good, too fair to die l" But at the Piot the Queen had bid them writs Her eeneoree goodness, nn had glory-roll, Yet knieW not they had carved upon the scroll That lw3t assurance of hie stainless heart,— For such they deemed his words who heard ' hem 'fall "Of all great things this Prince achieved his part, Yet wedded Love to him was worth them all." Thus read the-Queen : till now, her injured soul Of its forlornness had not felt the whole. Now all her heart was broken. There she fell, .and to the skies her lofty spirit fled. The wrong_ of those mute words had smitten weU. A . cry went up: "The Queen ! the Queen is dead 1 0 regal heart that would not reign alone! O foil sorrow! 0 the empty throne!" Her people made her beauteous relics room Within the chamber where her consort slept. There rest they side by side. Around the tomb A. thousand matrons solemn vigil kept. Long ages told the story of her reign, And sang the nuptial love that had no stain. The collection of miscellaneous poetry which swells out the volume includes a "Ryles" which recalls pikyard Taylor's best ballad, of the same name ; "Pan in Will - Streit," "Woods and Wit ten," translations from Thooeritna, and various other exercises. Very pure, yet troubled,—fit for some modern etiolated Hamlet,—ls this pur poseless speculation on "THE UNDISCO V REED COUNTRY." Could we but know The land that ends our dark, uncertain travel, Where Ile those happier bills and meadows low,— Ah, If beyond the spirlt'b inmost cavil, Aught of that country could we surely know, Who would not go ? Might we but hear The hovering angels' high imagined chorus, Or catch betimes, with wakeful eyes and clear, One radiant vista of the realm before us.— With one rapt moment given to see and hear, 6h, who would fear ? Were we quite sure To find the neerless friend who left us lonely, Or there, by some celestial stream as pure, 'Togas° in eyes that here were lovelit only,— This weary mortal coil, were we quite sure, Who would endure ? It would be wrong to close with an utterance so dejected ; here is something with more of the bit oVthe sturdy old ballads: THE DUKE'S EXEQUY. ARRAS, A. D. 1404. Clothed in sable, crowned with gold, All his wars and councils ended, Philip lay, surnamed The Bold : Passing-bell his quittance tolled, And the chant of priests ascended. Malldd knights and archers stand, Thronging in the church of Arras ; Nevermore at his command Shall they scour the Netherland, Nevermore the outlaws harass ; Naught is left of his array Save a barren territory ; Forty years of generous sway Sped his princely hoards away, Bartered all his gold for glory. Forth steps Flemish Margaret then, Bislang toward the silent ashes ; And the eyes of armed mon Fill with startled wonder, when On the bier her girdle clashes! Swift she drew it from her waist, .And the purse and keys it carried On the ducal coffin placed ; Them with proud demeanor faced Sword and shield of him she married "No encumbrance of the dead Muet the living clog forever ; From thy debts and dues." she said, "From the Hens of thy bed, We. this day our line dissever. i Trom tby hand we gain release, Know all present by this token! Let the dead repose in peace, Let the claims upon as cease When the ties that bound are broken "Philip, we have loved thee long, But, in years of future splendor, Burgundy shall count among Bravest deeds of tale and song This, our widowhood's surrender."

My idlest walk must alwaysbaVelts appointed dead nation. I set myself a task before I leave my lodging in Covent Garden on a street ex pedition, and should no more think of alter ing my Mite by the 'way, or turning back and leaving a part of it unachieved, than I should think of fraudulently violating an agreement entered into with somebody else. The other day,finding myself under this kind of obligation to proceed to Limehouse, I started punctually at noon, in compliance with the terms of the contract with myself to Which . my good faith was pledged. On such an occasion it is my habit to re gard my walk as my. Beat, and myself as a higher sort of Police Constable doing duty on the same. There is many a Ruffian in the street whom I mentally collar and clear out of them, who would Bee mighty little of Lon don, I can tell him, if I could deal with him physically. Issuing forth upon this very Beat, and fol lowing with my eyes three hulking garotters on their way home,—which home I could confidently swear to be within so many yards of Drury Lane,in such' a narrow and restricted direction (though they live in their lodging quite as undisturbed as I in mine),—l went on duty with a consideration which I respect fully offer to the new Chief Commissioner,— in whom I thoroughly confide as a tried and efficient public servant. How often (thought I) I have been forced to swallow, in Police Reports, the intolerable stereotyped pill of nonsense how that the Police Constable informed the worthy magistrate how that the associates of the prisoner did at that present speaking dwell in a street or court which no man dared go down, and how that the worthy magistrate had heard of the dark reputation of such street or court, and how that our readers would doubtless re member that it was always the same street or court which was •edifyingly discoursed about, say once a fortnight. Now, suppose that a Chief Commissioner sent round a circular to every Division of Police employed in London, requiring in stantly the names in all districts of - all such much-pulled streets or courts which no man durst go down; and suppose that in such ch .- miler he gave plain warning: "If those places really exist, they are a proof of Police inefflcieny which I mean to punish; and if they do not exist, but are a conven tional fiction, then they are a proof of , lazy tacit Police connivance with professional crime, which I also mean to punish"—what then? Fictions or realities, could they survive the touchstone of this atom of common sense? To tell us in open court, until it has become as trite a feature of news as the great goose berry, that a costly Police system such as was never before heard of, has left in London, in the days of steam and gas and photographs of thieves and electric telegraphs, the sanctu aries and stews of the Stuarts! Why,a parity of practice, in "all departments, would bring back the Plague in two summers, and the Druids in a century! - Walking faster under my share of this pub lic injury, I overturned a wretched little creature who, clutching at the rags of a pair of trousers with one of its claws, and at its ragged hair with the other, pattered with bare feet over the muddy stones. , I stopped to raise and succor this poor weeping wretch, and fifty like it, but of both sexes, were about me in a moment, begging, tumbling, fight ing, clamoring, yelling, shivering m their nakedness and hunger. The piece of money I had put into _the claw , of -the child I had overturned, was clawed out of it, and was again clawed out of that wolfish gripe, and again out of that, and soon I bad no notion in what part of the obscene scuffle in the mud, of rags and legs and arms and dirt the money might be. In raising the child, I had drawn it aside out of the main thoroughfare, and this took place among some wooden hoardings and barriers and ruins of demolished buildings, hard by Temple Bar. Unexpectedly from among them emerged a genuine Police Constable, before whom the dreadful brood dispersed in various directions, he making feints and darts in this direction and in that, and catching nothing. When all were frightened away he took off his hat, pulled out a handkerchief from it, wiped his heated brow, and restored the handkerchief and hat to their places, with the air of a man who had discharged a great moral duty—as, indeed, he had, in doing what was set down for him. I looked at him, and I looked about at the disorderly traces in the mud, and I thought of the drops of rain and the footprints of an extinct crea ture, hoary ages upon ages old, that geolo gists have identified on the face of a cliff; and this speculation came over me : If this mud could petrify at this moment, and could lie concealed here for ten thousand years, I wonder whether the race of men then to be our successors on the earth could, from these or any melte, by the utmost force of the burner:intellect, unassisted by tradition, de duce such an astounding inference as the ex , istence of a polished state of society that bore with the public savagery of neglected children in the streets of its capital city, and was proud of its power by sea and land, and never used its power to seize and save them ! After this, when I came to the Old Bailey and glanced up it towards Nevgate, I found that the prison had an inconsistent look. There seemed. to be some unlucky inconsis tency in the atmosphere that day, for though the proportions of St. Paul's Cathedral are very beautiful, it had an air of being some what out of drawing, in my eyes. I felt as though the cross were too high up, and perched upon the intervening golden ball too far away. Facing eastward, I left behind me Smith field and Old Bailey,—fire and fagot, con demned Hold, public hanging, whipping through the city at the cart-tail,pillory,brand ing-iron and other beautiful ancestral land marks, which rude hands have rooted up, without bringing the stars quite down upon us as yet,—and went my way.upon my Beat, noting how oddly characteristic neighbor hoods are divl - fieff" here about, as though by an invisible line across the way. Here, shall cease the bankers and the money -changers; here, shall begin the shipping interest and the nautical instrument shops; here, shall follow a scarcely percepti ble flavoring of groceries and thugs; here, shall come a strong infusion of butchers; now, small hosiers shall be in the ascend-, ant; henceforth, everything exposed for sale shall have its ticketed pr.ce attached. All this as if specially ordered and appointed. A single stride at Houndsditch Church, no wider than sufficed to cross the kennel at the bottom of the Canongate, which the Debtors in Holyrood Sanctuary were wont to relieve their minds by skipping 'over, as Scott re lates, and standing in delightful daring of Catobpoles on the free side,—a single stride, and everything is entirely changed in grain and character. West of the stride, a table, or a chest of drawers on sale, shall be of mahogany and French polished; East of the stride, it shall be of deal, smeared with a cheap counterfeit resembling lip salve. West of the stride,a penny loaf or bun shall be com pact and self-contained; East of the stride, it shall be of a sprawling and splay-footed character, as seeking to make more of itself for the money. My Beat lying round by IN hitechapel Church, and the adjacent Sugar Rellneriea--great buildings, 4 stier uppre-fler,. :that have th e appearance 0 being neteriy re-' hied to the Dock-Warehouses atiAverpool- 1- Iturned off to my rightAndliassing round the awkward corner on my iert, came sud denly on an apparition *Mar • to London streets afar off. What London peripatetic 'orthese times has not seen the wornan.who has fallen for ward, double, •through some affection of the spine, and whose head has of late taken a turn to one side, so that it now droops :over the back of one of her arms at about the wrist? Who does not know her staff and her shawl, and her basket, as she gropes her' way along, capable of seeing nothing but the pavement, never begging, never:stopping, forever going somewhere on no business? How does she live, whence does shecome whither does she go, and why ? I mind the time when her yellow arms were naught but Wile and parchment. Blight changes steal over her, for there is a shadowy suggestion of Inman skin on them now. The Strand may be taken as the cen tral point about which she revolves in a half mile orbit. How comes she so far East as this ? And coming back too! Having been how much further ? She is a rare spectacle in this neighborhood. I receive intelligent information to this effect from a dog—a lop sided mongrel with a foolish tail, plodding along with his tail up, and his ears pricked, and displaying an amiable interest in the ways of his fellow-men,--if I may be al lowed the expression. After 'pausing at a porkshop,he is jogging Eastward like myself, with a benevolent countenance and a watery mouth, as though 'musing on' the many ex cellences of pork, when he beholds this doubled- up bundle , approaching. He is not so much astonished at the bundle (though amazed by that), as at the circumstance that it has within itself the means of locomotion. He stops, pricks his ears higher, makes a slight point, stares, utters a short, low growl and glistens at the nose,—as • I conceive with terror. , - The bundle continuing to approach,he barks,turns tail, and is about to fly, when arguing with himself that 'flight is not bedoking in a dog, he turns, aiid once more .facea the ad vancing heap of clothes. :After much hesita tion it occurs to him that there may be a face in it somewhere. Desperately resolving to undertake the adventure and' pursue the in quiry, he goes slowly round it, and, coming at length upon the human countenance down there where never human countenance should be, gives a yelp of horror, and flies for the East India Docks. Being now in the Commercial road district of my Beat, and bethinking myself that Stepney Station is near, I quicken my pace that I may turn out of the road at that pint, and see how my small Eastern Star is shining. The Children's Hospital, to which I gave that name, is in full force. All- its beds oc cupied. There is a new face on the bed 'where my pretty baby lay,and that sweet lit tle child is now at rest forever. Much kind sympathy has been here, sinew my former visit, and it is good to see the ii s ellsprofusely garnished with dolls. I wonder what Poodles may think of them as they stretch out their arms above thri bedicand - Stare, and display their splendid dresses. Poodles has a greater interest in the patients. I find him making the round of the beds, like a house-surgeon, attended by another dog,—a friend—who ap pears to trot about with him in the character of hie pupil dresser. Poodles is anxious to make me known to a pretty little girl, look ing wonderfully healthy, who has had a leg taken off for cancer of the knee. A difficult operation, Poodles intimates, wagging his tail on the counterpane, and perfectly suc cessful, as you see, dear Sir! The patient, patting Poodles, adds with a smile : "Die leg was so much trouble tome, that I am glad it is gone." I never ea* anything in doggery finer than the deportment of Poodles, when another little girl opens her mouth to show a peculiar enlargement of the tongue. Poodles (at that time on a table, to be on a level with the occasion) looks at the tongue (with his own sympathetically out), so very gravely and knowingly, that I feel inclined to put my hand in my waistcoat pocket,and give him a guinea, wrapped in paper. On my beat again, and close to Limehouse Church, its termination, I found myself near to certain "Lead Mills." Struck by the name, which was fresh in my memory, and finding, on inquiry, that these same Lead Mills were identical with those same Lead Mills of which I made mention when I first visited the East London Children's Hospital and its neighborhood, as Uncommercial Trav eller, I resolved to have a look at them. Received by two very intelligent gentlemen, brothers, and partners with their father in the concern, and who testified every desire to show their Works to me freely, I went over the Lead Mills. The purport of such works is the conversion of Pig Lead into White Lead. This conversion is brought about by the slow and gradual effecting of certain suc cessive chemical changes in the lead itself" The processes are picturesque and interesting —the most so, being the burying of the lead, at a certain stage of preparation, in pots, each pot containing a certain quantity of acid be sides, and all the pots being buried in vast numbers, in layers, under tan, for some ten weeks. Hopping up ladders and across planks and on elevated perches until I was uncertain whether to liken myself to a Bird, or a Brick layer, I became conscious of standing on nothing particular, looking downointo one of a series of large cocklofts, with the outer day peeping in through the chinks in the tiled roof above. A number of women were ascending to, and descending from, this cockloft, each carrying on the upward journey a pot of pre pared lead and acid, for deposition under the smoking tan. When one layer of pots was completely filled, it was carefully covered in with planks, ' and those were carefully covered w th tan again, and then another layer of pots was begun above; sufficient means of, ventilation being preserved through wooden tubes. Going down in the cockloft then filling, I found the heat of the tan to be surprisingly great, and also the odor of the lead and acid to be not absolutely exquisite, though l believe not noxious at that stage. In other coeklofts where the pots were being exhumed, the heat of the steaming tan was much greater, and the smell was penetrating and peculiar. There were cocklofte in , all stages ; full and empty, half filled and hair emptied • strong, active women were clam bering about -them busily; and the whble thing had rather the air of the upper part of the house of some immensely rich old Turk; ' whose faithful Seraglio were hiding his money because the Sultan or the Paaha was coming: As is the case with most pulps or pigments, so in the instance of this White Lead, pro- , cesses of stirring, separating, washing, grind ing, rolling, and pressing succeed. Some of , these are unquestionably inimical to health, the danger arising from inhalation of particles of lead, or from contact between the lead and and the touch, or both. Against these dangers, I found good respirators provided (simply made of flannel and muslin, so as to be' inexpensively renewed, and in some in stances washed with scented soap). and ganntlet gloves, and loose gowns. Every where, there was as much fresh air as win dowe, well placed and opened, 'ould possibly admit. And it was explained that the pre caution of frequently changing the women employed in the worst parts of the work (a precaution originating in their own experi ence or apprehension of its ill effects) was foritafsaletar ~ They-had a mysterlowP all , ' S mu singular Ppi'Cuenca witli thp . mo tb and coVered o andthe loasqsown On, d yet bore '.. out the Shari of the told Tar lind tho Se 4,, raglio all the;better for:' the dlignise. ,„ At Ittst this vexed white lead having been buried, and resuscitated,' and 'heated, and cooled, and stirred, and separated, and washed, and ground, and rolled, and pressed, is subjected to the action of intense fieryheat. - A row of women, dressed as above described, stood. let us say, ` in a large stone bake-house, passing on the baking-dishes as they, were given out by the cooks from hand, to hand, natolhe ovens.' The oven or stove„ cold as yet, looked as high as an ordinary house, and was full of men and wtrrndn on temporary footholds, briskly passing' Up and , stowing away the dishes: ' The door of another oven or stove, about to' be , cooled and emptied, was opened from above, for ' the Uncom mercial countenance to peer, down into. The Uncommercial countenance withdrew itself with expedition and a sense of, suffocation from the dull-glowing heat and the overpow ering smell. On the whole, perhaps the going into these stoves to work, when they are freshly opened, may be the worst part of the occupatis.n. But I made it out to be indubitable that the owners of these lead mills honestly and sedu lously try to reduce the dangers of the occupa tion to the lowest point. A washing place is provided for the wo-- men (I thought there might have been more 'towels),and a room in which they hang their clothes, and take their meals, and where they I have a good fire-range and ire, and a female attendant to help them, and to watch that they do not neglect the cleansing of their lianas before touching their food. An expe rienced medical attendant is provided for them, and 'tiny premonitory symptoms of lead-poisoning are carefully treated. Their tea-pots and such things Were Bet out on tables ready for their afternoon meal, when I saw their room, and it had a homely look. - It is found that they bear the work much better than men; some few of them have been at it for years, and the great majority of those I observed were strong and active. Oa the other:hand, it should be - reniembered that Most of them are very capricious and irregu lar in their attendance. American inyentlyesess would seem to in dicate that before very long White Lead may be made entirely by machinery. Tao sooner, the better. = In the mean time, I parted from my two frank-conductors over the mills, by telling - them that they had nothing there to be concealeo, andnnthing to be blamed fpr. As tb thd rest, the philosophy of the matter of lead- poisoning and work people seems to me to have been pretty fairly summed up by the Irish woman whom I quoted in my former paper : " Some of thi3m gits lead-pisoned soon, and some of them Bits lead-plsoned later, and stone, but not many, nivel*. end 'Lis all according to the conatitooshun, Sur, and some constitooshuns is strong and some is weak." Retracing my footsteps over my Beat, I went off duty., . STRAWS FOR DROWNING MEN BY JAMES ORRENWOOD. This startling exposure of the "life-preserver" stalndle naturally suggests the question: Are the cork-jackets, the tmoys and the other so-called life-preservers, now provided for passengers on our own ships and steamboats, no more to be de pended upon than these described by Mr. Green wood ? At this season of gale and wreck, where "the stormy winds do blow," in the dreary night-time, and hearing.them as we hug our pillowe, we exclaim, "God help poor souls at sea,"_ permit me to disclose to your readers a monstrously cruel and heartless cheat system atically imposed on mariners and those who make long journeys by sea. It concerns what in devilish mockery are "in the trade" known as "life buoys." I may mention that my attention was directed to this subject so long ago as last November twelvemonth, when that memorable hurricane swept over the Island of St. Thom as, and the sea in its neighborhood, causing such appalling devastation amongst the ship ping thereabouts. It was my duty to des scribe in your columns the marvellous escape of a lad named Bailey, a ship boy attached to H. M. S. Rhone, of whose crew, numbering nearly one hundred, about a dozen were saved. Battling for his life in the raging waters, Bailey was so lucky as to secure a life-buoy suddenly vacated by a hapless , wreck-fellow who, with his body within the floating ring, was nipped off at the middle by a shark, causing the poor wretch to fling up his arms and slip through "like a bolt out of its socket," as Master Bailey graphically des cribed it. Clinging to the precious buoy, Bailey was carried out to sea, and far out of sight and sound of land. Night came on, and quite done over with fatigue, he fell asleep, and so remained until his buoy drifted ashore, carrying him with it, and he was awakened by the rasping of his legs against the shingle. I examined that life-buoy, and saw Ihe fair imprint of Master Bailey's stubbly hair on the soddened, yellow-painted canvas, showing where his sleepy head had rested. As may be easily understood,' at once con ceived a high respect for life-buoys, and re solved, if ever I went to sea,to provide myself with one, though I had no more money left than would secure me ti berth in the steerage. I shouldn't have made much trouble over the purchase. In all seaport towns and in the vicinity of the principal docks, there are dezens of maritime outfitting warehouses,and all of them sell life-buoys, most of them keep ing sucu an extensive stock of the article as to prove unmistakably the popular faith in, and extensive demand for it. Like any other sus pieioue person, 1 should have asked for a life buoy, and seeing that it was properly branded "warranted cork," paid for it, and carried it away never doubting it. How wofully I might have miscalculated will presently appear. The opening of my eyes to the true state of the case is mainly due to a well-known life belt and buoy maker of Sunderland (Mr. R. Writing to'me concerning loss of Dixon). life at sea, be informed me that he had grave suspicions of the quality of the life buoys man ufactured in London, and supplied to the Jew skip-shops.He informed me that he himself had met with life-buoys composed of the basest materials, and sent me some bits of common rush as a sample of the interior or one he bad dissected. He further apprised we of the fact that to such 'an extent, had this fraud -been perpetrated, that a very large ' number ,of seamen would have nothing to do with life-buoys, declaring that they. would rather go down and have done with it, than hang in the jaws of death for a few bouts .with the certainty cif drowning after' all, becoming more apparent' as - the treacherons supportgradhally soddened,. and sank 'under' their *eight. , It, was scarcely to be credited that so mur derous a business BB my Sunderland friend hinted 'at could be commonly pursued, but I resolved to watch my opportunity for testing it, and just lately by chance I meta man in the poor neighborhood of Shadwell, who in foimed me that he was a belt and buoy maker. We bad some.conversation on the subject of his trade, and then' it came out, not only that Mr. Dixon's suspicions were well founded, but that he bad not 'suspected the worst. IV ith 'ft candor that contrasted queerly with the villainy his statements be trayed, the ShidWeli Operati*\ in formed me' thOO the are stampe d .

I'd' - like to know?" I asked him what he could afford to stuff into his buoys at the price, and he replied: "Cocoa fibre mostly, sometimes straw, sometimes rushes, same as what the calkers use; anything almost does, shavings, it you haven't got anything_ better." He ap peared to th ink that it did , not matter what the canvas covers were stuffed: with so long, as they were well sewn and painted. . I far ther inquired as where the precious goods of his manufacture might be bought and he replied shortly, "Anywhere.' And it seemed that this was perfectly . ' true. The neighborhoods of Shadwell, Ratcliff, and Poplar were visited, and at each place at a seaman's slop-shop a "good litb-buoy" was inquired for and bought. One was branded "warranted corkwood," one "all cork," and the third simply bore the word "warranted." They ranged in price from six shillings to seven-and-sixpence. They were all three carried home and dissected with the following results: No. I ("warranted corkw000d"). when its flimsy yellow skin was slit, was dis covered to consist bodily of straw, sparely covered with cork shavings, for the satis faction, it is presumed, of any cautions mar iner who might teel disposed to risk a slit in his purchase so as to make sure of its qual ity before he paid for it. No. 2 ("warranted") was stuffed with rushes. No. 3 ("all cork") cork chips and rushes. about twenty per cent of the former and eighty of the latter. To test the buoyant capability of the three detected impostors, they were placed in water, a. Weight of ten pounds being attached to each. This was the result : "Warranted corkwood :" Sank in an hour. "Warranted :" Stood the test for nearly two hours and then succumbed. "All cork," floated for four , hours, and then' sank from view. Here is a"pretty revelation ! In our inbred love for the sea and all that pertains to it, in this more than in any other direction, do our sympathy and charity extend. 'An appeal lei funds to float a life - boat on any dangerous coast is seldiim or never made in vain. We have hearty despising for all "crimps," and "long shore" sharks, who prey oothe seaman and fleece him of his bard earnings, more than aIL Of all men, none is so utterly ab honed as the "wrecker," the cold-blooded villain, who, by means of false lights and signals, betrays a vessel to a certain destruc tion for the a sake of such plunder as the shat tered hulk and the bodies of drowned men may yield. What, then, must be our opinion of the man, who, for the sake of an extra profit of half-a-crown, consigns a fellow creature to the lingering torture of death by gradual drowning ? To be sure, it may often happen that, cast on the face of the wilderness of water, the possessor of a life-buoy deserving the name may in the end be worse off than the man who has no such hope left him out of the wreck of his ship, and "goes down, and have done with.it;" bat who, since this wretched imposture began, may reckon the instances of desperate hope all unexpectedly mocked to death, of life lost that would have been saved, had the promise that the treacherous buoy held out but proved true? Nay, how many men, and women too,—emigrant mothers bearing up their little children in the fathomless waters,--have been cheated out of their lives by abandoning the spar or plank for the more hopeful-looking ring of stuffed canvas, "warranted solid cork wood," but which is no more than straw and rags, and sodden and sinks, dragging the clingers with it?

At 11 o'clock yesterday the officers of the navy stationed in and near Washington assembled at the Navy Department, to the number of about; sixty, in full uniform, and proceeded in a body, to the office of Secretary Rorie, where they were preserited to by Rear Admiral Dahlgren, Chief of the Bureau of Ordnance. The Secretary received Oat m in the most cordial manner, and impressed every one very pleasantly by his affable demeanor. The presentation ceremonies lasted but a few militate., and when Secretary Borie had ; shaken the officers by the band and exchanged a few general remarks-with most of themLthe en- tire party, beaded by the Secretary, went in a body to the Executive Mansion, where they on- • tered the East Room and waited a few moments to be t.resented to the President. After a short, ; time General Grant entered the East Room, ac- I eezepanied by General Dent, and was introduced i to the officers by Vice Admiral Porter. They all shook him cordially by the hand, and warmly congratulated him upon his accession to the Chief Magistracy of the nation. Promi nent among those present were Vice ; Admiral Porter, Rear Admirals 'Shubrtek, Smith, Goidaborough, Dahlgren, Poor, Howard and Powell; Commodores Gilsson, Smith, Boggs, Jenkins and Sande, Captains Reynolds, Patter eon, Davenport.

A large number of per sona—officers of the army and navy and citizens not personally known to Secretary Rawlins— sought and obtained an introduction to him. After remaining some time in the East Room, during which the hand-shaking became qiiite neral among all present, the interview termi nated. From Cuba. HAvAxa, March 12.--The .Diario mains the inaugural message of General Grant. Stagnation and distnast in business circles on the island are increasing. Valliant Brothers, Schmidt& Co., Deapignue & Co.. and many re tail merchants in Santiago de Cuba, have failed. The rebel General Juan Capote Lopez was taken prisoner and shot on the 9th instant, at Cienfuegos. The Diarie reports the capture of several rebel advance guards in the meighborhood of Gibara, and states that they were immediately despatched with knives by their captors. The:United States steamer Contoocook, flag ship of Admiral Hoff, leaves this port to-mor row for Key West, but will return in a few days. The Milted States squadron In the Westladies is insignificant in point of number, compared with the English and French fleets. The American residents here characterize it as ridiculous, and talk of it as an insult to the mercantile interests of the country, while they deride the alleged par simony or Ignorance of the American govern ment in keeping so small a fleet in Cuban waters during the present condition of affairs on the island. The Garcia to-day publishes an official notifica tion that the fsmilies of persons to be transported to Fernando Po, next Monday, may furnish them with means to supply their necessities during their imprisonment. Advises from Sagua state that the fighting be tween the troops and insurgents is lively in that juilsdiction. A despatch from Cienfuegos, the 11th, says a thousand Spanish troops arrived there. The en tire railroad is now g - uitarded, bul, the rebels are numerous and active. Advices from Santiago say Colonel Lopez's column bad entered Slayer' after a desperate conflict. Colonel Valasco had been sent from Bayamo to operate in conjunction with Lopez. The rebels bad attacked Iguarl, but were re pulsed and fled to the mountains. The. news from Santa Espiritu is that Colonel Poello had issued an address to the effect that the time of reconciliation was at an end. Coal Nunements.
