OUR OLD GRANDMOTHER.
-1 find the marks of my shortest steps beside;
those .of my beloved iaothor,which were mcas-i
ured by my own, says Alexander Dumas, and;
so conjures up one of the 'sweetest, images in'
the world. Ho was revisiting .the home lOf ldsi
infancy; ho was retracing the little paths around,
it in which he had 'once walked; and stranger
dowers could not efface, end rank grstss' could'
not conceal, and cruel‘ploughs could not oblit-!
- erate, his “shortest footsteps,and hln moth
er’s beside them, measured,by his own. ' . j
And who needs to beVtold whose footsteps
‘they were that thus kept time with the feeble'
pattering of childhood’s little feet ? It was no,
tnothet J.ehiiid whomiAscamus walked “with!
, equal steps” in Virgil’s line,but a strong, stern!
man, who.could have horne.bim. and not been;
burdened; folded himjln hir arins from all]
danger 1 and not been wearied; everything, in
deed. Jib contd have done for mm, but just'
what he needed- most—could .not- sympathise]
with him—he could not be achlld again. Ah, !
a rare art is that—for, indeed, itis an art—to]
set back the old clock of time , and be a boy]
once there 1 Man’s imagination, can easily see]
-the-child &man; but how hard it is'for. it to.
see,the man a child; and he who has learned:
] to. glide back into that rosy time when he did 1
hot know that thorns.were.under the roses, or]
that.clouds, would over return after the rain;,
when he thought a tear could stain a cheek ,nh.
more than a drop, of rain a' flower; when he;
fancied that life had no disguise;’and hope no
blight at all—has come as noar as anybody i
can to discovering the 'northwest passage to
Paradise. ' ■ • • ■. - ••
. And ilia, perhaps, for this reason that it is;
ao much easier. 1 for, a mother to enter the
kingdom of. Heaven than itis for the rest of the]
world. She fancies that she is leading the:
-children; when, after all, .the’children are!
leading her, and they keep her indeed where!
the river is narrowest and the air is clearest;;
and the beckoning of . the .radiant , hand is so]
plainly seen from the;othor side that itis noj
wonder she so often lets go her clasp upon the]
little finger she is holding and goes over]to the,

.She rests her- head-upon her hShds, and it' Is

The refusal of Mr. Dickens to appear at
Windsor Castle with his company of amateur
actors; except upon the assurance that their
social position as respectable literary men
should be officially recognised, was aS credita
ble to him, as the unwillingness to comply with
so reasonable a condition was discreditable to
the court. That the Queen should insist on
receiving Dickens,. Shirley; Brooke, Thacke
ray, and other eminent authors ontyln the his
trionic character which they bad assumed for a
benevolent,purpose, and 'that, consequently,
in order to gratify her curiosity,'she should be
obliged to attend their performance oh the same
terms with the . untitled public; are two facts
that deserrh to be poled.. The condescension
of Elizabeth towards Shakspeare, the profes
sional play-actor, was a prccedeUt that Victoria
might have gracefully followed.' The reigning
family! of England.was: never .remarkable 'for
its literary proclivities.. Occasionally authors

Office and.if her courde hadboeri actuated
by such natural feeling, no greater importance
could be attached to'it than to any other diffi
culty between individuals. But the fact of the in

founded solely on conventional considerations.

fifty-four persons drowned.
Arrival of the Survivors.--A History of the
Wreck.
On the first of August ft telegraphic despatch was
received in thtecity, via Boston) stating that on the
21st of July the barque Monasco, Captain Doily, of
Warren, 'Me'; was total!/- lost on the coast of
Burin,Newfoundland;,whue on her way from Got
tenburg to this port. On Monday ovening last,
the survivors, minus the captain and his wife, ar
rived. In thisoltyfrom St. Pierre, Newfoundland,
on tha French brig Louis Gillies. We have seen
a portion of them, and learn that the ship left Got
tenburg for New York on the 13th of June, with
sixty-one Swedish passengers and a crew of twelve
persons.
On the night of the 21st ol July toe barque ran
upon a high rock on Corbin - Head, Newfoundland,
and soon after ran down, bead foremost. By this
disaster, fifty-four Swedish possengeb perished. It
would appear, however, from the iaote which have
transpired; that'this dreadful- to*® of life was mainly
attributable to the cowardice and incapacity of the
captain. Had Capt. Dailey possessed ordinary dis
cretion and self-controj, few, if any, of his pagsen
f;ers would have been lost. But, instead of man
ally standing by his ship, he was the first to'set an
example of pusillanimity which it is truly painful
to contemplate* At the first alarm, he rushed with
hia wife to the boat, and stuck by it to the last, us
though it were his only hope.
At.tbo-Oastlo' Garden, yesterday, we saw five of
the passengers and two of tho crew of the Monasco.
The remainder of tho survivors were wandering
about the city in various dirootions. Those at Cas
tle Garden were In charge of the Rev. 0. G. Har
rison, pastor of the New Bethel Ship, at Pier No.
11 North river.
HAURATIVE OP THE SURVIVORS.
The Ameriean barque Monasco, Capt. Dailey,
started, on the 13th day of Juno, from Gottenburg,
with sixty-one Swedish pnssengors, and twelve of
ficers and seamen, for New York. There wore
soven families; the remainder wore single persons,
women predominating. Captain Dailey’s wife was
with him.
Nothing of speoial moment ooourred until the
21stday of July. About Hi o’clock at night, tho
barque struck light on the port bow; she was then
onlygoing about-four knots an hour. ' It was vory
dark and foggy at tho time, and although a good'
look-out was kept, nothing oould be poroeived bo
fora she struck. The disaster occurred in tho
mate’s watch. The captain ran up immediately
from waiting to dress, and jumping
into the quurter-boat, whioh hung on the davits,
placed bis wifo beside him, and shouted. “Haul tho
main brucesjwo have struck an iceberg. • The sai
lors sprang to oboy his orders,and the passengers ran
out froin the houses on deck, and lont thoir assis-.
tone?. Sorao of the sailors ran forward and lifted
up the fore hatch, to see if the water was gaining
on tho. ship. They found that the water was
already over the water-casks.
Some of the passengers And sailors worked at
the, pumps, while others assisted in launching the
long-boat, which laid on the top of the foreoastle.
Capt. Dailey, during this time, remained in the
quartor-boat with ms wife, and called upon the
steward to bring him wator And provisions, which
he did. Some of tho sailors aud passengers tried
to get into the quarter-boat with the Captain, but
he said,.“Don’t come or I wiftshqot you.”—
-W r e cannot say-whether he bad any weapons, but
think that’ toe steward, at his request, brought
him some. - The long-bdat was got put add launched,
after much: severe labor, in safety. Wo oould not
tell what object we hod struck; wo could only seo
something tall and murky looming up through the
mist, and believed that it was an iceberg. >
The ship bogau to sink rapidly, and Captain
Dailey, with the three or four persons inHhe quar
ter-boat, tried to lower that into the water; but
found that they could not ou account of the near
ness of too vessel to the object on which she hud
struck. The captain then, finding he conld not
launoh it, got put of the quartor-uoat, ran to the
port side of the vessel with his wife, and descend
ing by the mixien-ehains with her, they were taken
into the long-boat by the mate and others. The
steward, who had been fitting outthe quarter-boat
with water and provisions to save the oaptain and
his wife, now held ft lantern In the miwen*rigging
to enable them to get safely into tho long-boat.
No sooner had he and his wife got into the boat,
which was now pretty well loaded, (sixteen persons
having taken refuge in it,) than he cried, “Shore
her offfrom the snip.”
The steward climbed up the mizzen rigging with
hfelantern; and cried, “ Oh, Captain, are you going
i to leave me hero? Captain Dailey will you leave
me here ? ” This he Repeated several times in
tones of painful entreaty. The Captain said noth
ing more than “ Shove off the boat,” which we did
aslt was deeply laden, and would havo been in
danger of going down with the ship. We shoved
off a little from the barque, leaving the passengers
at work at the pumps for doar life. One of them
jumped overboard from tbe bows and tried to reach
the boat; but he perished in the attempt. Seve
ral of the sailors only reached us by swimming.
We afterwards learned'from one of the survivors
on tho vessel! that the passengers,when they found
themselves deserted by the officers and sailors,
calmly left the pumps, and went into their cabins,
apparently resigned to thoir fate.
We laid during tho night about half ft mile from
the ship, but could not see it. We supposed that
some of the people might he saved-in the morning.
The weather was very calm or we never should
have survived. At dawn,' the;fog having disap*
Eeared, we could see land, and found that tho ship
ad struck on a rook (as we subsequently learned)
off Corbia Head, about six miles from a fishery
called “ Burin,” in Burin county, Newfoundland.
We also found that' our vessel had not entirely
sunk, but.had'gone - head foremost. The
rigging was all standing w we had left it, and the
-*l3? -■ ■ —Wayged fwardjtogttthalf way up toe
tore sal), and toe stern was fiveinrvix-f*«t eut of
thewatof, but wet by the spray We founft two
passengers and the steward alive in the starboard
mUzen rigging; all of the rest were drowned.
It wa?apqut half an English mile from the ves
sel to .whore we could land with the boat. We
rowed ashore, and landed twelve of our people, in
cluding tho captain .and his wife, and the other
four took the boat book to toe barque and sAved tbe
steward and the two passengers. The rock against
which the b&Tque struck was at toast three times
higher than her mainmast, and quite perpendicu
lar. About throe hoursaftof'landing, wo succeeded
In hailing a passing fisblug schooner, which came
to our assistance. Capt, Dailey said he did not
know where ho was, and supposing that tho island
was inhabited by wild pooplo, was very anxious to
get away. He had proviously sent three persons
to reoonaoitor, to see If there were any Indians
about. They went armed with knives and Sticks, at
bU suggestion, but did not meet with any adven
tures.
The oaptain of the schoonor told him that it was
Carbon Head on which he lost his vessel, and
that the place was inhabited by oivlUzod people.
We got our breakfast on board the schooner, aud
then wont ashore again. Tho pcoplo belonging to
the sohoonor thon set to work to savo tho sails and
rigging of tho b&rquo, in whioh they wore’soon as
sisted by the crows of liaif-ft-dozon other schooners,
which shortly after canto along. Wo walked to
Burin, a man accompanying us to show us the
path. It was ft little scattered villugo of fisher
men’s .dwellings, and oontuihed' three churches.
The people reooived us very kindly, and furniahod
us w]th food, lodging, and other necessaries. Wo
strived there on Wednesday morning, and toft ou
Saturday afternoon in the same-fishing sohoonor
we had first halted for St. Peter’s, Mtquolon, New
foundland, a distance of fifty miles.
Tho American Consufat St. Peter’s gave us some
olbthes and food, and put us on the French brig
Louis Gillis, for New York. We sailed from St.
Peter’s on Monday, the 27th of July, and arrived
here yesterday. The captain and his wife remain
ed at St. Peter’s, saying that they would go to
Halifax, and thenee home to the United States.
The oaptain said, in reference to the disaster,
that he add no Idea he was near land. By his
reckoning he should have been. one hundred and
twonty miles off shore.
The following is a list of the persons saved:
Captain Dancy and wifo. (went to Halifax.)

MRS. CUNNINGHAM. j
The Occur ants or No. 31 Bond Street.— Hrs, j
Cunningham, hot daughters Helen and Georgl- j
Anna, and tho two Uttle boys, continue to ooeupy 1
31 Bond strfeot as if nothing at all had. happened. >
No preparations have yot boon made to leave thjbj
premises, notwithstanding Mrs. Cunningham may
reoeive a notioe to vacate at any moment. The'
pressnt'state of her health will, it is supposed, be;
a safeguard against her being lodged in the Tombs. I
Besides, Justice Davison says ho does not want to,
inconvenience the lady in the least, and has not >
the slightest objection to her remaining iu Bondi
street for a week or more. The magistrate does'
not want to give the accused any cause for com-!
plaint, and carefully avoids doing anything that •
might create sympathy where it should not exist.i
The house does not seem to be tbe objeot of much
attraction now. People are getting rather tired!
of gazing at a three-story ana basement house.— :
The ocoup&nts never make their appearance at the'
windows or doors, and honce there is but little ma-!
tcrial afforded the curiosity-seeking public. - !
Miss Augusta Cunningham. —Miss Augusta 1
Cunningham, the eldest daughter, who has become \
so disgusted with her mother’s eonduct, as it was'
revealed in the late denouement, still continues to*
reside with her aunt in Lexington avenue. She is'
but little improved in health or appearance, and!
will, In all probability, never fully reoover from
the shook produoed by the discovery of the sham
acoouohement on the part of her mother. Grief and
shame have produoed a marked changein the fea
tures of Augusta. One could hardly recognise her
now os the person who testified on the coroner’s
inquest, so great has been the change. No doubt
the girl has become disgusted with affairs of:
late, Tor she evinces a strong and apparently set- '
tied determination never to put her foot in No. 31’
Bond street again, uor to live with her mother as'
long as she seems determined to play suoh deeper--
ate games with the hope of gaining wealth.
Who Ann Mrs. Cunninoiiam’s Friends? —Who;
are Mrs Cunningham’s friends in this most trying l
hour?. What gentleman will como forward ana.
generously become her bondsman if she should bo'
admitted to bail ? Sush questions are asked daily’
without any satisfactory result. It is said that she
has a near friend in tbe person of one of the Gov-<
ernors of tho^Almshouse, who has promised to help;
her out of this last scrape, but whothor ho will toe!
the mark when the word is given we are not au--
thorieod to state. Mr. Eckel is rather indifferent
on the jwint of bail. He'seema to think that he.
baa got into enough of trouble already, (and inno- -
oentiy, too, perhaps,) all.through Mrs. Cunning
hum, without further damaging his proepeots, pe
cuniary or otherwise. So there is little' to be ex
pected from that quarter. * Thon Dr. Walter B '
Roberta is looked to Tor aid in this matter, but he
also seems to think it advisable to leave the sink- 1
ingship. However, he baa expressed a detormi* >
nation to take oaro of tho children, should Mrs.■
Cunningham, by some accidout or otherou the part ■
of the authorities, be deprived of hor liberty.
. The Trial op Dr. Uhl.— We are informed that
a number of tho leading dooiors, ex-Fresideuts,
Vice Presidents, and present officers of the Academy
of Mcdioine, have called on Dr. Uhl in reference to
the rumor that he was to bo placed on tr al beforo
that body on the eharge of violating tho confidence
of patients, for the purpose of expressing their non s
in relation to the matter. They have disavowed in.
nearly every instance, and in tho most omphatic
terms, any intention whatever, so far as they are
concerned, of calling him to uocount'before that
body, and have pledged themselves, so far as in
them lies, to protect and uphold tho Dootor in the
course he has pursued in the recent exposure, in
whioh he has been mainly instrumental. They say
that it is a matter in which the Academy, os a*
body, had nothing to do; and evonifithoa, they'
can see no impropriety in the Doctor’s lending his
aid to the oxteutno did, to oxposo the act and bring
tho criminal to punishment. They advise Dr. Uhl
to pay no attention whatovor to the rumors in cir
culation about him, and have pledged themselves,
should any individual prefer charges beforo that
body against him, as rumored, to lond their uid iu
erushing and dismissing it as frivolous, uncalled
for, and a matter over which thoy, as a body, have
no control. No meeting of the Aoademy will bo
held in any event until tho fore purt of September,
when the matter will undoubtedly be brought be
fore them, in some sh&po or other, for action, in
whioh oase Dr. Uhl says he is prepared to dofend
himself as best he can; but until that time, by ad*
vioe of hia counsel, he says bo shall refuse to con
verse with any person other than such counsel on
the subject, one way or tho other.
MATTERS AND THINGS IN NEW YORK.
(From the New York papers.]
New York, Angust 12,1857.
Coroner Hills was called upon to hold an Inquest
yesterday, at the foot of Charlton streot, upon the
body of an unknown female, who, U.is supposed,
committed suicide by drowning herself, in her
possession was found ft letter from a person sap
posed to be her brother, from which it would ap
pear that deceased was the victim of seduotioa.
The letter was dirooted to “ Miss Joanna Donahoe,
Post-Offioe, Broadway, Now York.” The doceased
was a respectable looking woman, about thirty
years of age, of medium size. She was dressed in
a buff oolorod dress, white skirts and brown gaiters.
The jury rendered a verdict of “death by supposed
drowning.” . ■
There is to be a national conventicn of obe9s
players in this city during the coming month of
October. The sessions will commence on the Oth,
and will continuo daily for one week, or longer if
it is doomed desirable. Among the subjects that
will come before the convention will be a revision
of the chess laws, about which there is some dis
pute, and which the best players deem imperfect.
There is also to be a grand tournament, in which
players of acknowledged merit from all parts of
the-Union and a few from Europe will oontend.
This congress will attract considerable attention,
as chcfc playing has become a national amusement
with us, and aliclasse* of society participate in it.
The New York Chess Club contains some of tho
a.“fXb
compare with tbe “crack” players, from other
States. It la understood that every State
in the Uniou will be represented In this congress,
and it.i| expected that delegates will also be pre
sent from Europe.

The Killing of Baugh in Chester Connty,
The different papers published recently an ac
count of the killing of a man named Wm, Baugh,
by a constable, In Chester county. It was stated
that Baugh was a desperado, and the killing en
tirely justifiable. This week, however, a neighbor
takes un tbo cudgel in his behalf in a letter to the
WcstChester Republican. He s&ys: “You say
that Baugh was known to be a most desperate
character, everybody was afraid of him. That 1
do most unhesitatingly deny. I have always re
garded him as an honest man, and an orderly citi
zen, and only when insulted or believing bis rights
to be invaded would ho become aroused, and when
In that state his temper became uncontrollable.
That was his misfortune, not his fault. You also
say that tho shooting of Baugh is fully justified by
tbo entire community. That is far from being the
foot. But I do not wish to say much about tho
conduct and statements of the officers, understand
ing that the cose Is to be fully investigated. I have
not the time to notioo all the charges against Mr.
Baugh’s oharaoter in your article,hoping that some
abler pen will roviow the whole transaction from
its commencement to its awful termination.”
The funeral of William Baugh took place on last
Tuesday morning, at 10 o’clock, and seldom do we
see is largo and solemn a funeral procession. Tho
Rev, Mr. Hay and Rev. Mr. Knipe delivered very,
impressive disoourses on the Occasion. The family
of the deceased have the sympathies of tho entire
community.
The West Chester Record says'; Mr. Layman;
whose u«ok was so horribly gashed by the cut of an
axe in his attempt to arrest. William Baugh, and
whose recovery waa considered extremely doubtful,
is, we are happy to leum, doing very well. There
has boen no inflamraation--appHcations of cold
water being vory frequently ma<f»; and his friends
are encouraged to hope for a favorable result. , '

seems to be that tne wheat crop will average
twenty-five bushels per acre. The kind mostly
raised is the Canada Club, which is usually of an
exoellent quality, apd the beny this year is said to
bo remarkably plump'and large. Cats aro good,
much more than an average drop; corn is stretching
