Yesterday, Mr. Stephen Caldwell, of Pliil lipsport, Sullivan county, Now York, one of tho forty-nine saved, after the wreck of the Central Jmerica , by the Norwegian barque Ellen,' called upon us. Ho permits us to give, in his own words, a personal narrative of his own adventure and experience. In the con versation wo had with him, ho spoko vory •warmly. In praise of Captain Herndon, jvko,. -ho jfnyg/*Rtooil Urtho ship to tfro feat, and, it is to bo feared, was drowned. The statement £s as follows; •Wo loft Havana on the Bth. Out about twenty hours before got into tho breeze. Tho stoamerdid her duty well, and rode through tho storm very stoutly. Tho bolief among tho crow was that the euginoor had let the steam go down, so that, at last, the vessel got into the trough of tho sea, and probably took in water—-first by ita pouring in on the deck, and thon by a general straining of her timbers which admitted it frooly in. The water was several foot in the hold, before it was generally known to be so by tho passengers. This was on Friday afternoon, September 11th. Immediately tho pas* sengors and orow organized themselves to pump out the water. Tho vessel, with a light run of steam, was put before the wind, but tho watersooo niado it; impossible to work tho engines, getting iutotfio fornaoes, so that steam could not bo got up. Wo worked from Friday afternoon till she went down, at eight on Saturday night, at tho pumps, and bailing out tho water in every way, but with little effect. The pumps were so umoh out of ordor that they wero scarcely of any uso We saw that the ship was about sinking, and as many of us os could seised lifo-presorvers, of whloh a large number was on board—enough to give one to every person there, but tho greater numbor wore below, and we oould not get at them. Those life-preservers wero each capable of floating a man. About threo minutes' before tho vessel lurched down, stern foromost, I was swopt off the deok by a heavy sea, but as I was going down, I was caught at by throe or four men who wore in tho water, who pulled of my lifo-preservor in tho struggle. I rose up, and being a good swimmer, kept afloat. When the vessel wont down, I just laid under her bows— her bowsprit hit mo on the shoulder, and I should have been oarried down, but sho wont a little aft and cloared mo. A fearful noise followed her going down. It continued for some ten minutes. Then all was still. Every ono on. board know slio was bound to go down immediately. Fifteen or sixteen locked themselves up in thd fitato rooms, saying they would rather die there than go down strug gling With death iu.the waters. Five or six wore sick in thoir births, and porisbod that way. I was fortunate enough to 'solzo a piooe of board about throe feet long and fourteen inches wide, and this, with tho aid of swimming, kopt me afloat. In the heavy sea, I was threo or four times separated from this board, but recovered it each time. I re mained nine hours in the water. £ saw many floating around me—some of thorn dead, tho re sult of oold, fatigue, and hunger, for there was soarcely time to eat anything during tho thirty six hours wo wore pumping. Towards!morning I felt very’cold indood, from tho watei; dashing over me and around mo, but used every effort not to yield. • - About six o’clock on tho morning of Monday, the 13th, I swam up the Norwegian barque Ellen, which lay to tho windward of us. I had soon hor an hour before. X was taken on board, and treated vory kindly; thoy gavo us dry clothes, food, and i did every thiug thoy coyld to holp us. When 1 ’ was washed over-board, T had no coat on. After | the vessoi went down, and I had got out of tho ! crowds I palled - off my boots in the water, (and a ; difihmlt thing it was,) by standing in tho water, t whioh I could do, as I swim well. Tho 'Ellen Bavcd forty-eight, bosidos mysolf. ’ These sho picked up. Hor own rigging was much torn. She brought us into Norfolk. I had about mo, in coin and dust, about twenty pounds weight of geld It was in a bolt buckled around me, bo that I could loose it and throw it off in a moment, if I found it likely to boar down. I wont from Norfolk to Baltimore and thence to Philadelphia, where I arrived atmldnight on Sun day (yostordoy) ovoning, I shall proceed to Now York to-morrow or noxt day. I iolong to Philltpaport, SulHvtra county, State of Now York, and hail boon two years and a quar ter in California, wljero I worked as a minor, and mot with success. With tho exception of boing a little lore and stiff for a day or two, I {felt no harm from what I have undergone. Many of tho rest wore much tai lored and bruised in tho water by being kuoekod about against Bparß, broken timbor, and such like. I lost my luggage and many articles of valuo. I gratefully and humbly acknowledge my deep obligation to Providence for having.brought me gftfo out of these great perils under which so many others sunk. Stkpiiek Caldwell. Philadelphia) Sept. 21, 1857. [From the New York Herald of Yesterday ] The steamship Empiro City, Captain Jno. Mo Gowan. arrived at Now York on Sunday morning, With ninety-two of the survivors of tho ill-fatod Central Amorioa. The Empire Oily, Capt. Jno. MoGowan, loft her wharf at Norfolk, Va., at 10} A.

Capt. McUowan got his ship undor why, steamed down tho burbor, and when near tho light ship spoke tho barque with hor quota of tho saved, lluil iug her ho proffered [a passage to all who chose to accept. The majority were taken on board, and with a parting round of three hearty cheers for their preservers, we proceeded on our voyago, hop ing to fall in with the brig and rolieve tho women and children. A vessel was descried ahead In tow of a propeller within three miles tff Gape Jiwiiy* PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1857. 1 hound in, and immediately speculation was mo as to whether she might or might not turn out to be the vo3Sol wo sought; glnssos wore levelled at hor by anxious groups gathered forward, and as we rapidly closed together, certainty succeeded sur-, mise, and to tno joy of all she proved to be tho brig Marine, in tow of the City of Norfolk, pro peller, her low and confined decks swarming with wretched-looking objoots. many of them women and children, wringing their hands, and weeping, and laughing, by turns, hystorioally. Our boats were speodily lowered, and Captain McGowan in tho first boarded die brig in carossod, embraced, and indcod half strangled by tho poor women, who throw themselves upon aim as ho reached tho deok. i • As boat load after boat load bad roaohed .the ship’s side and ladder, eaoh vied with tho other in assisting them to our decks, and in a short timo tho greater portion wore comfortably quartered in the cabin. To tho bystaudora, tho reoogmuon and greotieg between the two parties—mother claiming son and husband wife; tho eager panning of eaoh faco in agonizing fear and expectation; tho joy or grief manifested as recognition or disappointment awaited tho gazor—was touching in tho extreme, straining the heart-strings and moistening thooyca of many hitherto unused to such manifestation.^ A portion remained on board the brig, P r ®“’/£| n § to go up to Norfolk, and when all who wished had been taken on board, tho Empire City again got under way for Now York with hor freight of un fortunates. , , NinetV-jix, in all, wore reported to have been saved by tho brig, exclusive of thocoloredatew*™*; css, who died from oxhaustion after, having hupp taken from tho wreck. ‘ , < All speak In the highest terms,of the attention, paid them and tho humanity displayed by the offi cers and crews of both brig and barque.

Their csoopo is unequalled in tho annals of marine disaster and rolief. ■ Tho officers of tho Empire City, grieving for tho loss of their brother officers, have yet a feeling of pride and satisfaction in knowing that thoy died at their posts, striving to save lifo to tho last; and point to the foot that oil tho women and ohildron were saved (not an infunt lodt) as an instance of self-devotion, coolness, and manliness, seldom ox colled if equalled.

Bassford, of Boniola, California, one of the resoued passengers of tho Central Ameri ca, gives tho following statement: Shortly after the steamer left Havana, the storm commenced, and raged with unabated violence tijl tho ship went down. On dook Friday morning, about sevon o’olock, whon the onginos suddenly stoppod. Anxious to learn what the difficulty was, I went to tho engine room. The momont I ar rived there the first onginoof, Ashby, came run ning Into the room with nothing on but his shirt, having hurried from his berth without dressing. An Instant afterwards Captain Horndon camo to the room also,'having been roused from his berth by tho sudden stopping of the ougincs As soon as tuo captain saw Mr. ABhbyho said nothing, but went directly away. Mr. Ashby made an inquiry or two as to tho difficulty, and retreated to his pri vate room to dress himself, v aftor whioh ho re turned. LOSS OP IDE BTEAHER IMPUTED TO ABIIBY. I am satisfied, from what I afterwards learned, that had Ashby immediately went to work in en deavoring to, remedy tho difficulty with tho en gines, ho might h&vo got them to workl again, and saved the vcssol, ns every womont after tho stoppage of tho engines was of great importance. After Ashby returned ho called together tho engi neers and firemen, and consulted as to what should be dono. A pipe had broken and a groat deal of steam was escaping, which was all the difficulty visible to mo Efforts wero made to set the en gines going, but this proved ineffcotuul. I inquir ed ofono of tho Bremen tho extent of tho trouble, and was told that the steamer had sprung alonk, and that water was pouring in quitp. rapidly, and that it was impossible to pass tbo coal; and, fur this reason tho engines had stopped. As,yet tho water had not, touched tho fires m tho furnace*. It was found, after several hours, that tho wutdr was coming in at such a rate that it would bo ne cessary to call in extra aid. Accordingly, two lines of men wero formed on tho starboard, and another on tho larboard side of tbo stc&inor, with buckets, to take out tho water. . This was about four o’clock in the afternoon. When tho oall for tho buckets and aid of tho passengers was called for, thero was some consternation among tho pas sengers at first; none boliovod, howevor, that there was any real danger. At this time tho wind was blowing almost a hur ricane. X ventured my head above the dook once or twice, but it soomud na though thero was danger of the wind blowing it off, so vioiont and terrific was tho gale. In commotion with tbo buokots, gangs of men wero arranged with barrels to tako up water by moans of pulleys. Tho pumps had boon abandoned beforo this some time. Every body worked like a good follow, and the wator was gained on to such an extent that tho engineer was enabled to got up stoam in tho main boilor of tho ship, and several revolutions wore mado With the wheels. The water now gained on tho ship, and at longth put out tho engine fires. Moantimo ef forts had boon made all along to got tho donkoy engines at work, but without any success. HARD LABOR—SOXtt BINGING. Tho labor of tho men at tho buckets and bar rels was very sovero and trying. Everything was dono to keep up tho spirits. To give impotus aqd onoouragomont to tho work, a large number sang while laboring. Tho voices of the workors rose morrily and powerful above tho din of tho storm and tho lashing of tho Stoamer’s sidoajby tho wavop. Tho burden of the song was thostorootypecouplot, sung with a sailor-iiko melody and vivacity— Heave 0, Heave 0, stamp and go, We’ll bo Jolly blather, 0. For want of keeping up a proper systom of man agement, howevor, in arranging the mon in watches, so as to alternate at propor intervals, at tho first a number of mon, notwithstanding tho stimulus pf song singing, became so completely tlrod out that after a tune they had to glvo up work. Some fell down oxhuusted and fainting in thoir stops. LADIES PItOPFER ABBIBTANOB AT THE BUCKETS. At this crisis some of the ladies hehaved most ■generously and nolly—several ofthemvolunteer tng to take their places at the buckets ; but tho men, tired os they were, had too muoh gallantry to allow this. Tho offor of the ladies, however, to assume a portion of the trying toil gave ronowed encouragement to tho mon. Mrs. A. J. Boston, a bride, who, and her husband, wore among tho pas sengers, and wero on a wedding tour, furnished the men with a large number of bottles of wine. The liberal bostowal of tho wine, and the spirit which prompted its donation, won the admiration of all. Not only was increased vigor given to tho men, but it roused them to work still bravely on.. Several of the pMsucgere, whose position and ih- lolllgenoe, and withal, the trying circumstances in widen tho ship was pluccd, ought to have restrain ed from doporting themselves other than properly, drank excessively of liquors on board tho shin, probably from their own private store, and made themselves very noisy nod troublosnrao. I Inow two of the passengers of high social and political associations, who refused toworh , but got alarm ingly drtttU', so much so that their more sober companions had to put them in their berths. In that cojiditiou they lay when the steamer sunk. Tho mon worked at the buckets, endeavoring to bale tho steamer, from Friday at 4 P. M. till Sa turday night. Ono groat difficulty in tho progress was the want of propor and strengthen ing food. A dry oruokor was about all that could bo got hold of. What made it still worse was tho Impossibility of getting water to drink. During tho night the men had to work ontiioly in tho dark. Justico compels U to be said that Captuin Herndon, with all bis nobility aud disinterestedness of char acter, and notwithstanding his possessing in ahigh degree most of tho traits, necessary to an efficient commander, was not equal to tho present trying em-tegenoy. Ho ran ail over tho 3hip, running hem and there himself for a blanket, or a hummer, or trivial things which ho should have sent others for. Ho was not wanting In manly oourugo, hut ho deoisivo promptness. Had ho subdivided inariefe properly, and exorcised the rigidness of control nooessary to the occasion, I think tno steam ship might have been kopt afloat longer than she wis. f»iid posiibly saved. .At kwoP. M., Saturday, asail was seen from tho wf£dwerd. Guns were fired and signals of distress Wfflftd. Fortunately, the vessel saw us and oamo under our stern, being kept to the windward tjP.{*y to, but the galo blew hor away throe or four jMw.to tho Jeoward. The sight of this brig, whioh p*sVod to bo the brig Marine, gavo iuoreased en couragement to tho men engaged in bailing tho fftehmor, and they kept at work lustily aud nobly. The women and children being gathored nft on the starboard side of the steamer, the work of getting them ou board the brig commenced forthwith. Pre patytloaswere W rule to put the small boatsoverboard. The -first boat that was lowered was Qt onee stove. Better luck attended the lowering of the second boat. The boatswain and three or the crow wore placed in charge of tho boat, and it was soon filled with a portion of tho lady passengers and children. A groat deal of difficulty attended getting thorn into tho boat daring the heavy sea. Tho third boat that was lowered was in charge of the quarter master and three oarsmen; this wn* likewise filled wlriftwomon and ohildron, and pu3hod off for the brig Marino. Tho fourth bent that was lowered mot with tho same fato with tho first boat, and was knocked to pieces. MU. ABDBY LEAVES TUB HTEAMER—UIS PROMISES TO CAPTAIK UETINDON The fifth and last boat was lot down so ns to roach tho water and ride in safety. After nil tho re maining lady passengers, excepting three, had been taken on hoard. Ashby, tho chief onginoor. madtf n move to got into tho boat. Captain Horn don told him not to got In. Upon which Ashby besought tho captain to plaCo him in charge of tho boat. Ho promised the captain that ho would come back with tho boat, and what was mor’o, pre vail oh tho oaptain of tho Marine to come up with his vessoi to wfaoro tho steaiuor lay, and got him to send h’i3 small bonis out. Captain H. said that ho feared to .trußt him, ns ho was afraid ho would not oome back. Upon this expression of doubt rela tive to himself, Ashby said : “ I promise you, capi ta in, most solemnly, that I will come buck to the steamin' and siot desert her,” or words to this pur pose. I hoard tho remark distinctly, and noted it, as the fact of tho doubt as to tho boat’s return oaused me to think that possibly tho present would bo tho last opportunity I would knvo te savo my iclf; I saw that all tho womon were in, and would not allow myself any thought of my personal safety till the safety of the women hmi been looked to. When Ashby got on board bn drow a knife —as be saw several on the point of making a jump for the'lfoat—and declared if any individual jumped on bosud lio nould tako his life. I had a knife, 100, at my command, and was not to be awed by ttnjr aweb threat. Jamming that the women RTld children wero safe, I felt Justified in making pn effort for my own preservation; hut tho boat was out locoo, I gavo a jump and lnndod Id tbo boat. Ibad $2,000 in gold iu a belt, aud was about to tlo it about me, but with the haste I had to make to got into the boat, thrust it into my side ooatpookot. In giving tho jump It was thrown in *otne way out ’of my pocket into tho water and lost. Ashby did not carry out his throat as to doing me any peruonalinjury. Tho boat had got but a few feet from the stoamerwhen a young man named Adorns, from Baltimore, dovo head fore • most from tho steamer and uaino up tho other sido of thmuiialt boat. Ho put his log overiuto tho boat, aud got in no quickly and quiotly that only ono or two of tho3o In the boat noticed it. Fifteen persons, including Ashby nnd tho oma mon, were in tho small boat in which I had safely landed raymlf. The reason why more did not at tempt to get into tho small boat wns, beoauso thoy folt Uiemielres safer ou tho steamer. No one he iiev«44M^t a “*blo thoAa small bout could ltr«. J!a that knowledge from us. Wu remained quietly in tho cabin—we oould not rej main on ono side of the boat, because it was all down We bad to go into tho gentlemen’s cables] and Ihore we remained all the afternoon. THE STORM. Wo heard tho wator roiling and d&shmg against tho sifios of the ship, thinking it was on the outside whon in reality it was in the cabin—right below us. In that condition wo remained all night, the sea rnunlng vory high, and occasionally breaking over us, tho wind blowing a perfect hurrioano, the ship rolling and boating about, everything making a most fearful nolso, the rigging and Bpurscraoking nnd groaning, tho dishes, lamps, furniture, Ao! smashing and orashing togothor. It was an awfuj night, but the women still endured it without tear* or moans. j NAMES OF THE SAVED AND LOST. ; NAMES OF TUB RESCUED. } Tho following is an alphabetical list of the peri sons known to do saved, and is, we believe, alrnosj completo.

LATER FROM CALIFORNIA IMPORTANT FROM PERU. By the steamship Philadelphia, at New Orleans on the 11th inst, we have tho dotalls of tho Cali fornia advices to the 20th ult., the same as should havo reochod us by tho Central America. Wo copy the following summary of the fort night’s news from the Alta California : The Settlers’ Convention adjourned on tho sth inst., after nominating Edward Stanley for Gover nor; Nathaniel Bennett, for Supreme Court Judge; A. A. Sergeant, for Attorney General, and P. M. Randall for Surveyor Gcporal. Tho Dcmocratio nominees for Lieutenant Governor, Comptroller, Treasurer, and State Printer, were ondorsed by tho Convention. Tho van of tho overland immigration has at last crossed the Sierra Nevada, and for the last week trains have been pouring into thi9 State through tho various mountain passes. Tho great mass of immigrants, however, thus far, bavo como via Ge noa, in Carson Valley, and Placerville, and over tho road now being rapidly improved between these places. All accounts agree «3 to tho great numbers on tho way—more than any season sluce 1852. Thoro is also mu oh stock en route, and consider able quantities liavo boon driven into tho Carson Vulloy in good condition. The immigrants bring startling accounts of the depredations of tho Indians beyond the Sink of tho Humboldt, and in tho Gooso Creek Mountains. Many lives are reported to havo been lost, but most of those stories are doubtless exaggerated, as little evidence of an authentic character has yet been divulged. That tho Indians have, however, killed and driven off an unusual amount of stock, is undeniable, ns nearly all of the trains arriving haTO suffered from their doprcdatlons. Owing to tho scarcity of water in many portions of the raining region, our interior exchanges nro unusually barren of items chronicling the receipt of “ big lumps,” the announcement of “great strikes,” or the opening of “ rich leads.” But in quartz raining much activity prevails, and in El Dorado county auriferous veins are being workod whioh yield marvellously well—os high, iu one in stance, as a dollar to tho pound of'rock, or two thousand dollars to the ton. This claim is owned by J. R. Beard, formerly Supreme Court clerk. Extonstvo fluming operations are in progress on ult of tho mining streams, but it is yet too early to learn of the eucoessof these enterprises. Agriculturists throughout the Stato are taking a deep interest in tho forthcoming Ftato Fair, which is to bo hold at Stockton duriug tho last week in September. Tho arrangements in pro gress are on a far grander scale than ever before, and there is no doubt that tho festival will prove in tho highost degree successful. Throughout the interior tho heat has been ex* cessivo. On the 9th inst., the morcury, in some portions of tho State ran up to 120 deg. in the shade, and in rery tew places besides this city did it fall below 100 deg. on that day. Even here it will long be kuown as “tho hot Sunday,” although thaseabroezo greatly raitigatod tho heat of the sun In the after part of the day. Of murders, affrays, suicides, and other deeds of crime and violence, many more aro chronicled than it has boen our misfortune to record for a long timo past. A number of culprits have ex* prated tho extreme penalty of the law for their of* fences, and many more have been sent to the pe nitentiary from various parts of the State. Considerable fever prevails along tho American river, above Saeramonto, and many miners aro nnablo to attend to their labors. In Yolo county sore throat is prevalent, and in this city influenza has been almost epidemic for a long time post, al though few, if any, fatal rcsalts havo been chroni* clod. With these exceptions tho general health of the pooplo of this Stato was neverliettor. Tho United States Branch Mint, in this city, re* opened and commenced operations on the 10th inst. Tho Metropolitan Theatre, on Montgomery street, was destroyed by fire on Saturday evening, the 15th inst. —tho work of an incondiary. Ttfe build ing was owned by L. E. Ritter and Ilenry Hentcb. The loss will not fall far short of $OO,OOO. Th ship Ellen Foster, Robinson, from Boston, arrived at San Francisco on August Bth, and tho ship Lookout, Hamilton, for New York, cleared at San Francisoo on August oth, No other arrivals from or clearances for Atl&ntio ports, reported. CENTRAL AMERICA. Proclamation from the President of Co*ta Rica —Treaty between Costa Rica and Nicaragua. Tho advices from Costa Rica report nothing of interest in that Ropublio, oxcopt tho issuing of a proclamation mado by President Mora, in refer enco to Walker’s contemplated invasion of Central America. Senor Don Lorenzo Montufar having resigned the offleo of Scorotary of Stato for Foreign Aflairs, Don Joaquin Bornado Caivo, Minister of tho Intorior, has assumed tho duties of the Secretary ship. Tho Government, by decreo, dated August 7th, has granted to the international Electric Tele graph gaiety pf Paris the sole right to establish p NOTICE TO CORRESPONDENTS.

Adrices from Nicaragua stale that Costa Rica and Nicaragua have concluded a treaty, whereby Nicaragua retains all her former boundaries, ex cept the south side of the San Juan river, which is conceded to Costa Rica. SOUTH PACIFIC. Thc A " a Of the British Mtr.iatrm Peru, ire- We have date! from Callao to the 12th of August. The aceonot! from Lima report that Mr. Salli van. the Lnnsh Minister, was assassinated bv six Peruvians. The Vixen has gone toPsita, in search of Admiral Bruce. It is'supposed that he was mardered for the British interference in the mat ter ot the Tambe3 and Loa. Mr. Sullivan was dining alone, when six men. masked, entered and fired three shots, one of which is fatal, having ontered the groin and pa%ed up into the lungs. After the deed was done, one of them exclaimed, “lam satisfied/’ and thin they all disappeared. 9 There is a desire on the part of the Peruvians to throw the whole matter sj the result of an intrigue with a lady. Be that as it may. the Government feel alarmed as to what the results will be. A Frenchman and a negro have been arrested on suspicion of being accomplices of the assassination of Mr. Sullivan. There are not the slightest hopes of his recovery. It is now reported that the act was committed by some of the most respectable persons in Lima. Priyate letters assure us that the presence of an American vessel of war is very much needed at the p.esent time on the coast. On Saturday last an armed boat was sent on board the American ship John Mitlan, by order of tho captain of the port, and forcibly took oat three of toe crow, and brought them on shore, and a‘«*ain. on the same day, by the same authority, fouroth era were taken from the Morning Glory, asvVninjr no other reason than that of might. The com manders of these ships have laid their case before Mr. Clay, onr minister; he hag demanded that they may be placed on hoard their ships again and an apology for tho insnlt to our flag. The Government of Ecuador has notified its ad hesion to tho Convention entered into between Peru and Chile in September, 1556. General Caatilio, on his return to Callao, had been placed under arrest by the Council of Ministers who exercise the supreme power dnrin*- tbe absence of the President. Castillo publishes* letter complaining of tbisoutrase. The matter was referred to the Convention, which disclaimed the action of the Council. GENERAL NEWS.

An altercation took place between the two, in which Cavenaugh was stabbed with a knife in the left side, which in flicted a wound an inch and a half deep, end about nn inch wide. About one quart of blood came from the wound. Casey, who is represented to have been very violent, threatened to serve the wife of Care naugh the same way. Casey 13 still at large. A boy of fomteen years, son of Mr.Eana of Lyons, N. Y., died on Thursday of last week, from a disease of the heart. Hia skin had been gradu ally growing darker for seven or eight years, and was about as dark as the skin of amnlaiio. A post mortem examination discovered muscular atrophy of the heart, which would not allow a proper nrterialization of the blood. In Keokuk, lowa, on the 10th inst., some af the joists in the third story at tho Estes House gave way while the men were hoisting mortar for the masons, and seven men fell with the material.

Mr. H. had been a faithful employee of the O. A M. R. R. Co., and was much respected. A minister and three witnesses swore posi tively, at Boston, the other day, that Albert Pat terson was Eli Merrill, and that he was guilty bf bigamy. This was too much for the real Merrill, who came .forward, swore that Patterson was not him, and had Patterson lot off. It is stated that George C. Drew and Albert J 2. Goodrich, owners of the steamer Duron, hare commenced a suit against the citv of Chicago, to recover the sum of $22,000, beiug’for damages sus tained by the steamer in running upon a sunken wreck last spring at tho mouth of the harbor.

Death or a TYoRTHr Citizen*—The Death of Adam Fasig. which was announced in last week's Reading Journal, is deserving of something more than tho usual brief notice. For many years, says tho Journal , ho wus classed among our mostenier prfting and useful citizens, and much of the pros perity of Reading is owing to his individual exer tions. Frugal m habit and unostentatious in manner, he accumulated wealth by asmreoef patient industry, and used it rather for the pur pose of advancing tho interesrsof his native city than fur his personal advantage. Friends never applied to him in vain for assistance, nor were tbo unfortunate over eent away from his Joot emp’r banded. The upper portion of our eity is especi ally indebted to him for the rapid improvement which has been manifested in that quarter of late years while the various manufacturing enter prises in every pirt of the town, owe much to his judioious expenditure, and practical experience and assistance in making them what they are. Tho death of such a man is a public calamity, and if any evidence were needed that it was viewed in that light, it was furnished by the unusually largo enneourso of citizens who, on last, follow ed his remains to their final resting-place in tho Charles Evans Cemetery. Few citizens have pars ed from among us with truer evidences of heartfelt sorrow and reapeot—and few, we may add, will be held in more grateful remembrance. Peace to bis ashes! The Bravest Man at Waterloo.—A bequest, similar to the ‘‘Jackson Gold Snuff-Box.*' waa onco made in England by a gentleman, who left a sword to be given to the ‘‘bravest man at Water loo.” It was referred to the Buko of Wellington to decide to whom the su ord should be given. Tho Dnko would not sav who was the bravest where all wero brave, but said that tho won who were tho most severely tried on that memorable day were thoso who defended tbo position at the chateau Hougoumont, and that inquiry should be made re garding those who fought at that point. This was done, and the award wits finally made to a British sergeant, who, at a critical moment, when the French had unexpectedly forced open the gate of tbo chateau, and wero about to enter, rushed for ward. and. by tho exertion of great personal strength and determination, succeeded, alone, in shutting the gate in tho face of the French troops, and holding it till hia comrades carno to his as sistance. The Western Rivers.—The Mississippi, sapra tho Peoria (HI.) Union of the 17th. is falling with six and a half feet in the channel from St. Louis to Cairo Tho Missouri i* falling with scant three feet on Baltimore bar. The Upper Jlissis sippi is falling fa6t with but twenty-six inches on the lower rapids. The Illinoisis falling very slowly with full four feet in the channel. One Hundred Thousand Dollars. (FsrThe Press.] An intelligent person, in tho liquor trade, esti mates tho number of places in Philadelphia where liquor is sold at fivo thousand house?, of which only ono thousand are licen-ed, this being the limit of tho present law. The loss of revenue to the city ho estimates at $lOO,OOO. This is a large sum; and, if people will sell, they ought to pay. Ono of your correspondents lately recommended that this business should be thrown open to all who will pay for a license, and give security to keep a proper hooso. and not to sell to minors or intemperate persons, on the plan of the license law of 1549. D'e should like to have the views of The Pbess on this very important subject. I’ftASMMt,
