GENERAL PACKER IN PHILADELPHIA. Wo understand that General W. F. Packiir will address tho people of this city early nest week. , Tho nominations of tho respective parties throughout tho State have boon made, with few exceptions. Tho campaign is conducted with singular good fooling. Tho attempt to array a formidable opposition ngainst General Packer is a failure. But while there is no pxcitoment, there is evidently a determination to call out a full vote, which, to use tho quota tion so often made, “ is generally a Democratic victory.” { Tho friends of Mr. IIAZLEmmsT are very active. We notice that in most of the coun ties the straightout and anti-Wilmot Americans have nominated full tickets. Tkoy deal out some severe justice against tho Republican candidate for Governor, which tho advocates of tho latter retort in angry earnest. Among the developments growing out of this family eraouto ,, is G»o charge of ono of tho Republican papers in this city against tho Americans, that the latter were bribed in iho last Presidential campaign to oppose Fremont, and assist Buchanan. This, besides giving riso to a libel suit against tho editor of tho Sun, by the editor of the Daily News f has called out the following list, which is a curious bit of history. 11. B. Swope, Esq., Chairman of the Ame rican State Committee, publishes tho following in the Daily News, relative to the bribery elec tion fund used last fall to corrupt the press in this State: TO THE PEOPLE OF PENNSYLVANIA. , Fellow-Citizens; In a speech recently deli voted in Jayne’s Hall, in the city #f Philadelphia, and on other occasions, in different parts of the Sta^e t I promised to publish, with tho proof of its genuineness, a certain list of subsidized papers which was furnished by Governor Ford, of Ohio, to a correspondent of the New York Herald. I now redeem that pledge, and present herewith to tho peoplo of Pennsylvania Governor Ford’s list of expenditures, with tho affidavit of Dr. \V. W. Woodward, which explains tho circumstances un dor which it came into his possession, and which will be more fully understwd after reading the following extract from the New York Herald, of the lSlh November, 1856, immediately after the lato clcotion: Messrs. Fry and Gibbons, in Philadel phia, wero tho leading managers, and lost Iho bnt tlo by their blunders. Gov. Ford, of Ohio, wnsfur nished with twenty thousand dollars as a subven tion for (he country papers in Pennsylvania to support Fremont.” ; Toe affidavit and list are us follows: City of Philadelphia , ss. ' Tho annexed statement of moneys expended by Lieut. Gov,. Ford, of Ohio, in subsidizing tho oppo sition presses of Pennsylvania, was furnished by him, and given to mo at tho Astor House, in New York. The reason assigned for placing it in my fossession >vas, that with tho facts thus enumerated might bo fully prepared to disabuse the mind of tho editor of tho leading political journal in New York, who, by indirection, if not, indeed, by po sitivo chnrge,-had accused him'of tho misappro priation of tho particular fund ontruatod to him for the object above specified. ?

It may bo well enough to say that there are somo other names on tho nbovolist, that for reasons per fectly satisfactory to myaolf and to tho gentjemon whom I bavo consulted aro not now published. Among thctso were distributed tho sum of $2,050. Neither is this tho only list which shows tbo ox ficndituro of moneys for a similar purpose, in tho ato Presidential canvass in this State. There wero other papers beside those on Governor Ford’s list, that were bought and paid for, and those also will bo fdrnished, with tho proofs, when the proper time arrives, unless, in the meantime, they come from another and different source. Tho 2\feiM is resolved to keep up tho fight against Judge Wiljiot. Take yesterday’s number j and tho following specimens: Tun Effect op tiik Practical Operations op Tim Fusb-Tradk Tariff op 1846, nnouuiiT into Exirtenck nr Polk, Dallas, Walkjsk, Wicmot and Company—Two Thousand La borers Discharged. Wo learn that tho Montour Iron Company bavo ‘determined to payoff their hands and close their ’ Rolling Mills at Danvillo, for the present. This, wo understand, will throwout of eniploymontsomo two thousand men, and, with their families, six thousand people—tho natural result of the pre sent British Frco-Trado Revenue Polloy of tho Government, and tho War upon Railroad Securi ties. And yet, forsooth, with theso facts staring us ih tho face, Loco-foco and Black Republican demagogues would bavo the pooplo to boliovo that tho Tar iff question is not now an issuo before tho pooplo! Laboring men of Pennsylvania, if you are true to yoursolvos, you will rally eu masse for lease Jlaxlehurst. It is a somowhat hard measuro, however, that Judge TYilmot, the free-trader, and his protection supporters, should suffer in common for a Tariff which the free-trader, Wilmot, championed! It makes it rather difficult for tho opponents of tho Tariff of. 18-10 to decide exactly, whom to sup port. Tho true cotirso, in our opinion, is to vote for Packer, who favors tho policy of equal legislation on all questions, and who has always been a true Pennsylvanian, CITY NOMINATIONS. SENATOR, SAMUEL J. RANDALL. PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1857, But the Neius is still more Interesting. Wd copy again witli all its strong phrases: J A Toady or the South in 1840, —Wo have re-: peatedly ohargod that David Wilmot, who is now! go loud-monthod in liis nbuso of Northern men who refuse to lend thomsolves to Blaok Republi-t oanism, was tho veriest toady to tho South while in Congress, and co-operated as docilely with the Southorn Free-Traders in hroaking down tho In terests of free labor in tho North, ds’ if ho ropro* sentod South Carolina. Toshowthat this is Lot mero assertion, wo refer to a resolution passed by the Whigs of Susquohanna county, at tbojr County Convention, in 1810. Hero is tho resolution : “Resolved , That in tho chuiooof a representa tive to Congress, since it has been tauntingly de clared that the only vote givon from this State, ngainst hor vital iutorests was dictated aud ap proved of by tho people of this district , wo deorn it a consideration, paramount to all others, that ho, should 1)0 a Representative of Pennsylvania In stead of South Carolina or Texas, and that hls| constituents should bo tho pooplo of this district, . instead of Polk? Walker, aud Southern* slavo-, holders.” /'■ * Thp Convention which thus stigmatised Wilmot as having represented South Carolina instead of’ Pennsylvania, and having Polk, Walker, and the Southerns slaveholders for his constituents, instead 1 of tho pooplo of hiß district, at tho fliuno time ap pointed Henry Drinkor and Gcorgp Walker, Eaqs,, conferees to nominato a candmato for’Oongresjft? “i*r.Ei»OEn to the cause of protection to-Amerieafl, Industry and tho rkfkal of tho British Frie~ Trade Tariff of 1810.” Governor Pollock lias como out for Judgo Wilmot. Tho Democrats movo on more harmoniously. In Columbia county tiio Democrat talks’of tho ticket us a strong one. In reference to tho election that paper says: “ThoDemocrat** arc sanguine and tho Republicans hopeless, and hcuco wo march on to the election <lay without a ruffle to disturb tho quiet content of tho masses.” Paul Leidy, Esq., is tho Democratic can didate for Congress in the Montour, Columbia, Luzerne, ami Wyoming district. Tho contest was botweeu Hon. H. B. Wuight, Hod. John Mcßeynolds, and P. Leidy, Esq. In Erie county thcro is quite au animated contest—many of the Republicans refusing to support one of their candidates for Legislature, Mr. CocnnAN. Tho Erio Observer (Dom.) says: “Tho Republicans of Watorford and vicinity hold a pnbliameating on Saturday, and repudiated tho nomination of John 21. Cochran. Among tlioso who participated were three of the delegates of the count)/ convention at which he was nomi nated, and it is asserted that there nro twenty more , at least, of those delegates who sympathise with this movement. Among the other proceed ings of this meeting, they resolved that ‘his selec tion is an outrage upon tbo Republican party, and' they earnestly nnploro the conservative friends of law und order to oxpress their disapprobation of his nomination by casting tlioir votes against him at tho ballot-box. 1 ” * * “This all looks well for n little fnm it la true, but still Republicans nro a very uncertain race—honco wo shouldn’t bo nt all surprised to boo them wheel into lino and givo him an undivided Bupport at the olectlon.” * * “Hotvover, as the boy said when his neighbor diod, it is none of our funeral l” Tho Domocrats of Bedford nro a zealous eot of men; but owing to tho late apportionment having yoked them to Somerset, they have not so good a chance for electing their legisla tive ticket as heretofore, when they were con nected with Fulton. Tho Bedford Gazette publishes tho Democratic ticket, which con tains some excellent names, Among them our valued friends during mauy au exciting con test: Hou. W. P. Schell, Col. S. 11. Tate, and others. In Venango, tho Democrats arc reminding Judge Wilmot of his Republican and Frec- Trado notions. The Spectator talks with groat confidence of a gain for Packer. In Borks county there is every evidence of an immense majority in October for General Packer. The opposition have nominated no ticket, but tho great strength of Hon. Wil liam Strong, ono of the Democratic candidates for the Supremo Bench, who resides at Read ing, and tho happy selection of such a gentle man for Assembly as Mr. E. N. Smith, a young man of great ability and promise, togeth er with tho earnest fecHug of regard for Gene ral Packer, will call out an enormous vote. Tho party Is admirably organized in the different townships, under the control of somo fifty active committees. In Centro county tho Domocrats seem to ho In fine condition, Tho Watchman speaks with much confidence of a triumph in October for tho whole ticket. LANCASTER COUNTY DEMOCRACY. Wo publish by request tho following resolutions adopted by tho Lancaster County Democratic Con vention, whioh nssomblod in Lancaster city a week or two ago: Resolved, By tho Democracy of Lancaster coun ty, in Convention assembled, that whilst we look to no authority but tho light of reason for tho po litical opinions wo eutortam, we deem it right and proper to express our dcop gratification ai tno con currence of tho Supromo Court of the United States, in tho dootrlnes with rogard to tho Consti tutional powers and political rights of tho States and Territories, which bavo beon maintained by tho Democratic party, and formally avowed by ft in throe consecutive National Conventions.

Resolved , That tho Democratic pnrty has given abundant ovidonco of its ability to hold in check tho elements of discord in tho Union, to conduct with unparalleled success Iho administration of the Government in ponce and in war.aud to promote nnd sccuro tho welfare nnd perpetuity of tho Republic; whilst all other political organization© have failed to do so, or beon temporary in their existence and limited in their usefulness. May wo not thou just y claim that it deserves tho confidence, respect of ovory lovor of tho Union, and is essential to tho protection of tho rights of tho peo ple, nnd to our advancement and prosperity us a Nation.

CORRESPONDENCE. LETTER FROM CHESTER [From our Correspondent “ Graybenrd.”] Chester,Delawaro co., Pa., Sopt. 19,1857. l 'To my mind there is a peculiar interest Attached to tho eVont of writing a lino from tho oldest town iV Pennsylvania Tho most indotont student of history need Jd&tocly bo told that it was hero that tho juatly ,b»ybdpnd revered Penn first lundod within tho prorlnco to which his namo wa* givon, and which , WQ,Are now proud to claim ns our glorious Common [wealth. At tho time of Penn’s landing, Chester was a '.village, bearing tho name of Oplandt, or Upland, [givon to it by the Dutch, who, subsequent to tho ’first English eonquost, hold a short sway over New Swcdon, tho Dutch Governor of Now York having ;como hero with a fleot of seven ships, and took po.qicFsion of nil tho Swedish settlements. Wlmt ’wat then Now Sweden ia now mainly ombraced within tho limits of tho Stale of Dolawaro. I The oxaet landing-plnco of Penn was on tho 'Soathern point former by tbo oonfluoncooF Chostor creek with tho river Delaware. Immediately .fronting tho creek, at this point, stood tho ancient mansion of Kobcrt IVndo, tho hospitable host of ;Ponn'on this momorablo occnrion. A well, nearly marking tho spot of this original dwelling, was dis covered within tho past fow years, undor tho fol lowing v?ry peculiar circumstances: A gentleman owning tbo grounds, wishing to obtain water, con sult*! ono of his townsmen as to whoro might ho tho most auspicious locality to dig for it. Iu AnsVrer to this, tho Inquired of romnrkod, that ho hud ropcatcdly obsorvod a small spot in ,tbo meadow, upon which tho grass always re mained green at times when its surroundings wero parched .with drought. Heeding tho inference, tho proprietor at onco proceeded to the work of sink* ing a well at the ,spot designated, when, to the •wonder and astonishment of himself and tbo citizens generally, after penetrating to tho dis taneo of Bovoral feet beneath tho surface, on original well was uncovered, containing nn abun dance .of oxcellonl water, and is now, after tho 'lap*o of jrnany years interment, (for what reason it Übard*to conjecture,) again ministering to tho wants ot tboso residing upon tho sito of tho houso ,Uj which Ponn wqs ontortainod in ICB2. Chester ratlior claims to ho a steady, staid, woll- Ttohaved, slow-moving, old-fashioned sort of a plnco, and I think she is justly entitlod to every thing embraced in this diitinction; yet, with it all, tho irrevoront bond of Young America has. within tho past few years, been gradually at work demolishing somo of tho mod important land marks of hor antiquity, and in doing this has be reaved tho State of relics which cannot bo too highly prized by all who Inko a proper Interest in our history and growth as a nation. In this I alludo especially to tho Old Provincial Assembly House—tho kouno in which Penn, on tho ‘lth of December, IGS2, but a fowwoeks after his arrival, oalled tho first Assembly that over convened in tho Provinco of Pennsylvania. This venerable rolto ot ourbirth, as a law-making ns well as a law-abiding community, has, within a voryshort period since, been torn down, tho honor ed Rite it onco occupied being now dovoted to tho vending of coal. I may state, in this connection, that tho nets parsed by this initiatory legislative nssciably numbered sixty-ono, and woro ontitlod “ Tlio groat law; or tho body of laws, of tho pro vince of Pennsylvania, and tho territories there unto belonging.” Among othor curious statute* embraced in this venorablo code was a law against drinking health v. For tho benefit of strangers to tbo borough of Chester, however, I would remark that this law has certainly boeomo ol>*oletr, if it has novor been repealed, and indeed tho same might bo said of nearly all tho rest. , Tho houso immediately opposite to whero tho Assembly House stood, and which at that time con stituted tho hotel for tho accommodation of tho members, is still standing, and occupied as a dwel ling. Tho bricks of whioh it is built wero brought over from Europe, and having boon buitt with an oyo to durability but sadly imitated in modorn time;, it stands to-day, to all appearances, as firm and unyielding in its hoary solidity ns tho day it was finished. It is easy to imagino, in a town so antique In its origin, and constructed from tho be ginning with a viow to durability, that tho me inontoes of tho past are by no means rnro. It is indeed a fine old placo ; and, ns it appears from the record, onmo within an acoof beiug the sito of tho City of Brotherly Love. As is well known, tho town of Chostor remained nearly sta tionary for about a contury, and in fact so recent has been tbo commencement of tbo “ shaking among its dry hones,'’ that it is generally conceded that it has improved more within tho last fiftoen years than it had dono for a whole century beforo; though it really aooius as if tho determination, on ‘tho part of thoso who bavo most contributed to the rocont improvements of Chostor, had boon to pre serve tho limits of tho original town in ns unaltorod a condition as possible, as tho groat bulk of tho improvements havo been nmdo on a site entirely distinct from the original town, and about a qunrtor of a milo to tho northwest. • ‘ There aro perhaps few places in this country, of its size, in which a stranger will moot with moro genuine hospitality than in Chester ; and wero it not invidious to mention names in this connection, I might dosiirnato instances of that whole-souled, big-hearted hospitality which I hnvo mot with, 1 and shored tho benefit of, in tho short timo I have been hero, that shall ever bo oushrined in my most pleasing recollections. The business enterprise, in ainercantilo way, is fully adequato to its demands; manufacturin'. 7, howovor, i 3 tho chief feature of industry of tho borough of Chester, ns may ho inferred from tho following facts: Thcro aro here in successful ope ration, four cotton factories—producing almost ovory description of domustio fabrics; one woollen factory; ono bloaching establishment; one dye house; ouo saw-mill; ono sash and dooriimnu -1 factory; five machino shop*—somo of which have foundries attached to them, and one grist-mill, which, considering tho oxtont of tho individual establishments, may bo regarded as a very re spectable catalogue of manufactories for n placo scarcely numbering over four thousand inhabit ants. These works, however, do not include tlio extern five cotton manufactories of J.olm P. Crazier, E«q., which are located about a milo and ahalfwestof the borough. In theso wuikn alone thero nio several hundred hnmls constantly employed, and that they aro energetically and judiciously conducted is well attested in tho met that in tho twenty yours which havo elapsed since Mr. Crozior commenced opera tions in hutnhlo circumstances, he has amassed a fortuno which places him among tho wealthiest men in this couutry—being little short of two mil lions. It may not bo improper to notico, en pavtant) that Mr. Crozior has hit upon tho happy thought, of evincing his worthiness us n steward, by devot ing himself to the noblo causo of benovoleneo in hfe> instead ofholding on to his effects until tho signal of dissolution might blast tho merit of giving that whioh, in tlio Providonco of (led, ho could no longer retain This thought bo ho*put In practloo \\y building nm\endowing, with Ids own funds, a college, capacious in its dimensions, and so com manding in it» location as to constitute tho most conspicuous ohjoo t to tho stranger in passing through Chostor. But I must hasten to “ tho Fair,” for ostensibly 'this waste have beon my theme; it was this, as you are aware, that mainly induced my visit to Cheßtor, in company with your popular young J- B. S.,who took the train for Washington at eleven and a half o’clock last night. Immediately on our arrival hcreyostorday after noon, we proceeded to tho Fair ground, and soon falling in with your very practical friend, II .wo at onco commenced our round of sight-scoing Tho sight solocted for this exhibition is convenient and woH-ohoscn, and so situated as to present an ap pearance to persons on the rivor at onco beautiful and attractive, The rain of to-day is extremoly unfortunate for tho Soaioty. Tho various depart ments of the display nro oreditnbly gotten up, hml particularly tbe'Soveral varieties of fruit. The peaches aro particularly tempting, n3you umy sup pose, in this locality; tho finest and most attract ive spooiuion of these, howover. wore sent hero county, Delaware—the “Todd seod llng, a fino, Inrge, white variety, of a luscious flavor, and admirably adapted for preserving. Tiio trees upon which those grew are fifteen years old. and are said to reach this remarluble age for the jieach on account of their mid-way locality be tween the two bays, by which they receive tho constant benefit of » salt-water hrees®- Mr, Todd has forwarded to tho New York market O,OQO bas kets of this elegant fruit during tho present season, for which he has received on average price of three dollars per basket. In tho floral department, tho display of Dr. Toung attracted a great deal of attention, tbo-Mh the good tnato of Hevoral othor depositors was alto favorably commented upon. The specimens of homed nattlo ami sheep aro also fino; of tho formor the Devonshire breed are perhaps, takon asa whole, tho most uttructive, and of tho Inttor, tho Merino. A Mail of triplot calves, exhibited by Wm. Pen noll, two years old, imd averaging near a thousand pounds oach, livo weight, are so great & curiosity in thcraselvos, that wore it not for the unqaestiooa bio ovidonco with which tho fact is authenticated’, we might almost bo tempted toboliovo that another “bogus Bardoll baby game” had born suodesirfuHy playod by their exhibitor. A very remarkable Rakowoll'ram is also inhibited, and attraots a great doal of attention, but upon whoso special peculiarities wo have not time to expatiate/ There aro, indeed, in this collection, some- -of ’Hi* finest spooiinotia of importod oattlo wo have ever ex amined. A native coif from ah imported “short horned Durham” bull, also twq imported cows, nt a cost of $3OO enoh, and exhibited by C. Fal lon. Esq., of Upper Dnrby, aro oxcoedlflgly fine. Perhaps ono of the most importantlmprovements in tho mechanical dopartxnont on exhibition is Petora A. Sbropso’s “patent, non-explosive, self generating gas lamp.” This is a newly invented lamp for burning fluid, which evidently entirely obviates tho dangers attending tho burning- of fluid in the ordinary lamp, and dosorvea attention.' Tho raoe-courso stook was lively, spry (affording flue amusomont for the assembled thousands), but not particularly fast.

[From the New York Dally Tlraea of the 22d.] STATEMENT OF THEODORE PAYNE I went from tho stonmer in a boat to tho brig Marine immediately boforo she sunk. 1 am in debted to Captain Herndon for my life, as I was anxious to romnin, and I only went off nt his carnost request. I was in frequent consultation with him beforo I went, and ho asked me what I thought of nffniTS. I said, “Thank God, tho wo men and ohildrcn nro all off, and wo are strong.” Ho replied, “ Yes, thank God,” and added, “ You take tho next-boat.” This I did, but beforo I went he requested ino tn go into his office and get his gold watch nnd chain, and if saved to carry them to his wife. Said ho, “ Tell ho —” but his uHoranco was choked by deep emotion, and be said no rnoro on that subject, but changed it by saying ho wished mo to see tho-prosident of tbo company, Marshal 0. Roberts, ana the agents, and communicato with them in relutlon to the dis aster. After saying this much ho walked away, a few steps, and snt down on a bonoh, with hfs bend in his hands, apparently overcome. 110 remained in that position u fow momonts. and then arose and resumed giving orders os the boat from tho brig Marino returned. After sho was filled, and about loaving tho ship again, it was made known that three stecrago female passengers, wero still on hoard. I Immediately went below, and brought them forward. They wore placed on the boat "by Mr. Ashby, and the boat shoved off, but before ft could oloar tho stern a gtcorugo passenger sprang from tho deck of tho ship into the boat, a distance of twenty-five feet. Tho chief engineer then hastily lowered him solf into tho boat to provent tho passengers from crowding in and swamping it. lie had scarcely got into tho boat before another steerage passen ger lumped from tho deck and full upon tho engi neers back. Ho seized him by tbo threat and drew a dirk knife, not, in my opinion, for the in tention of using it upon tbo passenger, but for tly> purposo of dolorring others who crowded tho decs* from following his example. I was then lowered into tho boat, and bid the captain “ good-bye ” Tho boat was now pushed off again, when a third steerage passenger swung off the deck and tumbled into tho boat, at tho same time dropping from his |K>cket into the ocean a package containing $2,000 in gold dust. Charles McCarty, ohief engineer of tho steamer Ooldon Goto, but a passenger on tho Central America, ajaa got. aboard the boat, XFe woro then rowod in wfoty to tbo brig. Mr. Ashby, agreeably to tfio request of Captain Herndon, asked Captain Burt to send tho brig’s boat and crow. The replv was, that ho had no boat to spare, and that it would not live five minntes in such a son. Mr. Ashby also told the captain that Captain Herndon wished him to lay by all night, or so long as anything could bo scon of the steamer. Captain Burt assured ua that lio would do so, but ns his brig was disabled, tho current and winds woro constantly drifting her away. After the lapse of twonty minutes, two moro small boats camo from tho ship. They contained a fow of the ship’s sailors, firemen, and stoerngo paasongore. As they camo alongside, evory man but one jumped out of tho boat upon the brig, and refused to re turn with tbo noat. Tho chief ongineer. Mr. Ashby, implored them to return, but they steadily refused. He then tried to raiso another orew, but did not succeed, nnd tho boats woro lashed to tho brig’s stern. During tho night ono broke loose /md tho other was dashed to pieces. The brig lay to, but drifted away boforo morning, to the distance of fivo or six miles Iu common with tho other passengers res cued by tho brig, just ono hundred in number, I would speak in the higliost terms of the kindness and unremitting attentions of Captain Burt and tho crow. Many of the ladies and children woro nearly bn/o of clothing, and thoy wore dressed up in pan taloons and shirts obtained from the wardrobes cf tho noble-hearted cantnin and crew, who, whatovor thoy lacked, supplied It from thoir persons On "Wednesday ovening I took a boat and crew and bonrdod tho ship Euphrasia, Oapt. W. Lang faro, bound for New Orleans, and obtained a sup ply of provisions. Wo found Captain Langfnjo ono of thoro genuine sons of tho ocean, whoso hearts nro over ready to ros|*ond to tho distress of others Ho ohcerfully supplied us with every thing a o asked for, and alt bo saw wo were In need of, and when I offered to remunerate him, bo not only refusod to accopt it, but supplied us with other necessities. On Friday I took anothor boat and orow, and proceeded towards Cane Honry Light, on tho coast of North Carolina. Wo bad gouo only a few miles beforo a sail was descried approaching. Fearing sho would not seo us, I stood up in tho boat and waved my handkerchief, a signal of distress. In the course of an hour we got alongside of tho ves sel, which proved to be the City of Norfolk, Cupt. Green, bound for Savannah. 1 told him our con dition, and craved his assistance to tow us into tho harbor of Norfolk. 110 inquirod what I would give. 1 told him anything that was right, at tbo aaiuo tiiuo naming tho aovoral sums of $lOO, 5150, and $2OO. 110 replied, “I will not do it for loss thun $300.” I said, “ Well, wo aro helpless, and must submit to your terms to go out to tho brig ” So tho propeller was run down to the brig, and after getting alongside Captain Green commenced bargaining again, and demanded $5OO. 110 finally accepted s.’>oo, and towed us into tho quarantine f round, As wo came up tho harbor tho steamer hnpiro City, bound for New Vork, passed us. Sho was hailed and soventy-fivo of our nurnbor trans ferred tojhor decks and were oonveyod to N York. Twcnty-fivo of us still remained, and we arrived in Norfolk on Friday evening about! o’clock. Bo lero leaving the brig, so gratified woro tho passon gorsattho efforts ofner [captain and crew so put forth in their bohalf, thut tho sum of $BOO was raised in afow minutes and presontud to them as u testimonial. Captain Burt received $5OO, and tbo balance was divided among tho orow, who had almost divested themsolvea of their clothing to cov er us with garmonts. RUMORED BAFBTV OP CAPTAIN HERNDON, Captain Herndon’s wife last night reooived des patches from tho South, groatly oxoiting her hopes for tho safety of lierhusband Mr. Fruzor,second officer, says ho is positivo another large number of tho saved will yet turn up on board tho schooner seen near tho steamer on Saturday night. THE CENTRAL AMERICA—WHAT CAUSED HER TO .SINK—VAKIOI 8 THEORIES PROPOUNDED. Thorohns beon no lack of information a? to what transpired on board tho Central America alter she sprung ulonk, and tho water had gained the xmistury, putting out tho firos und causing tho en gines to stop. Individual passengers, mulo and fe male, havo told their several storios of what hap pouod to them, and the part each noted In the fear ful scones which preceded the sinking of tho steamer, but theso statements, though full of in terest. in ono respeot, throw no light upon tlio came of all the mischief. They woro nil oloso observers of what transpired under their oiv 11 eyes, but for tho most part tboy wore neither skilled in nautical affairs, norin the mystcriesof tho engine departments that with tho absence of testimony from practical and expe rienced men who wero on board, little progress had buenmadoup to yestorday in ascertaining tho causes of tho disaster. Captain Badgers ac count is a oloar and practical ono nB to the rise and progress of tho storm and tho varying posi tion of tlio ship in tho trying ordeal through which she parsed, and this Is fully confirmed by tho state ment of tho second officer, Air. Frazer. But neither of theso persons know anything as to whero tho aouroo or tho loak was until tho furnaces had been subtnorged, and the great motive power of the ship was paralyzed. Then, when the vessel was on her beam ends, overy ono knew that a largo quantity of water oarno in around tlio shaft, and this, it ap pears. was tho only piaco whero blankets and other appliances wero u*ed to keep tho water out. Various theories aro proi-oundod as to tho causo and source of the leak. Many of tho passengers, as well as seamen, believed that a butt was started by tho straining of tho ship. It is olear, they say, that the leak must have been somewhere in tho bottom of tbo ship, as tho water was over tho coil ing beforo sho was hove down on her beam end*. After this occurred, und tho vessel was laboring in tho trough of tlio «oa, tho leak inoreaaod vory fast. Mr. Huberts’ theory is, that some of tho side lights woro left onen by thopagsongorain the different slate rooms, and that tho great nody of water entered thiough them, lie tainks tho leakage around tho shaft could bo only trilling. This idea is not borne out by tho fact that largo quantities of blankets were used to stop thin leak, but tboy wero forced back by tho water. Air. Frazer and Captain Badger aro of tho opin ion that tho foremast, after it was cut away, dam aged tlio planking by being forced under and against the ship’s bottom A sou captain, whoso judgment in such matters is considered thinks *ihe connection pipe* wero broken.

There is still another pine by which water is discharged from the cohdonser into'the sea. On'the Central America, it is said, (bore were do moans of shutting off the flow of water through these pipes If broken, and the supposition is that one, or possibly both, of these pities may bavo been broken from their flanges during tho heavy straining of the ship. Such an however, would bo known im mediately to the eugtueor, as it would soon flood the ship, and 8(op, the 4<>W of water into tho boilers. Mr. Roberts gays, probably on the statement of the engineer,- thtft the ,water oamo down the batches, passing over the boilers; and gives, in proof of the fact, that it was go hot the men could not work in it, and were thus driven out of the engino-room.

Mr. George, a moat intelligent passenger, has given ps a thrilling account of tho fearful sefeoe. He wag ono of the hundreds who had sup plied themselves with life-preservers, pieces of plank, Ac., find preferred to await the ehtp’agoing down to leaping overboard in anticipation of her fhte.\ When she went down stem foremost, after giving .three lurches that made every timber quiv-. er, and which were to every quaking heart as the throes that instantly preoeded her dissolution, he was dragged, with the rest on board of her, somo twonty or twonty-fire feqt beneath tho surface. He heard no shriek, nothing but the seething rush and hiss of waters that closed above her as she hurried, almost with tho speod.of an arrow,’to her, ocean bed / Night had clewed in before the vessel sank, and he'Was sucked in by thd whirlpool caused by hoc «*ifo descent, to‘a depth that in its the blaoktflt -night, vrtthohi* tbofa er star, Was as i the brp§d oopon-day,, Uawat rather stunned than 'stifled, and his sensatiooa on .coming Jo the surface jwCfe almost 1 as' paffiftfl, fro in their reaction, as itbose which f be endufsd at the greatest depth to ho.spuk.... .' . • . < TVh'enho became "conscious, after the lapse, of a minute or two, he could distinguish feVery object pro and him foe s considerable distance. Thevravcs ba thoy rose and fell, revealed a crowd of human heads. Those unfortunates who had loot' their life-- preservers ot ptenks while undeV water, to the force of the whirlpool, were frantically snatch {ng at the .broken pieces of the. wreck/ which, breaking frbm tod smp'&sshooootiniicd to descend, leapt above tho surface, and foil back with a heavy tplash; Their cries arose, that mingled into one Inarticulate wail, and then the lustier and less ter rified shouted for Assistance to the barque Marine, whioh was far, beyond hailing distance. Tho waves dashed , thorn one against another at first, but speedily they began To separate, and the last fare wells wore taken. One man called to another in our inforiaan “lf you are saved* Frank, Send my love to my dear wife,” but the friend ap pealed to answered only with a gurgle of the throat. Jle was washed off ibis plank, and perished as his companion spoke- Many were desirous of separa ting themselves aafaras possible from the rest, being fcarfdl lest somo desperate straggler might icizb hold ot thorn and draw them under 1 Others, afraid of their loneliness, called, to their neighbors to keep together. Generally, thoy strovo to. cheer 4sch other ailong&s they remained within bearing, ind when 1 tbo roar of tho waves drowned all but the loudest, shouting, tho call of friendship or tho dry of despair was heard in the distance, and in fused confidence, or increased dismay, in many a failing bosom., It was when he had drifted far from tho compa nionship of any of his fellows iu misfortune, that Mr. George began to realize his situation. The pight was quite dark. Occasionally, as the driving Clouds parted and gave a glimpse of sky, a star or iivo would be visible, bat this was very seldom, nd offered but the faintest gigam of hope tb&t (he morning would dawn fair and calm. The swell of tho sea wa9 great, anti successively tho poor floaters, holding on to their planks with the en ergy of despair, were riding on the brink of apre* aiptce, and buried in a deep valley of water. Our informant, like many of the rest, was seized with the fear of sharks. Respiration wrifi very difficult, Owing-to the .masses or water which were, con stantly upon thon\, uA wave after wave rolled by. Fot two or three hours, the water was iot unpleasantly cold, and it vaa net till about oue o’clook on the morning of Sunday, when they had been nearly flvo hours in the water, and a fresh, chilling wind arose, that their limbs begflu to feel benumbed. Some of the incidents described to ns as occurring before or about that time were truly shrilling. One man, floating in solitude, sod ter rified at his loneliness, after shouting himself hoarse to find a companion, saw, at length* a man with two lifti-proservcrs fastened about his body drifting towards him. His heart leaped with joy at tho welcome sight, for tho fooling of deflation which had overcome him was terrible to endure. Ho culled to the other to join him, if possible, and made every exertion to meet him half way. There was no reply, bat the other drifted nearer and near. A wave threw them together. They touched. Tho living man shrieked in the face of the corpse. Tho other had been drowned by the diish of tho billows, or had perished from exhaus tion. 1 When rising and falling with the swell of the waves, the lights pf the barque Ullen were first dis qorned by the Survivors in tho water, tho thrill of hopo that nt onco filled every breast uinounted. it may well bo believed. U a perfect ecstasy. Let Mr. Goorgo speak for all. Ho says: “ I never felt do thankful in alt my life. I never knew what gratitude was before, I do not know whether I oriod or not, but I know I was astonished to hear my own laughter Binging in my car*. I do not know why I laughed. That verse, “ God moves in d mysterious way,” kept passing in and out of me— through me, rather, as if I had been the pipe of an organ) it did not come to mo by my own voli tion, but somehow mada mo remember it. When tho lights approached nearer, a score of voices sprang up around me, crying “Ship, ahoy.” “ Boat, auoy,” and t thon I began to shout too. And I had never any doubt that I should be saved, till I saw the lights pass by, nt about half a mile from where I and recede in tho distance Thon I began to give myself up for lost indeed- But I slowly drifted towards her again, till I conld wako out hor hull and one of her masts, and pre sently I floated close to her, and shouted, and was taken up. When I got on tho deck I could not stand I did not know till then how exhausted I was.” Our informant, before ho was thus happily res oued, encountered six men clinging to a log of wood, two of whom were washed off in his eight, within a short distonco of the barque. The others must havo afterwards shared tbo same fate, as they were not taken on board the barque.andwcronever again scon. Psychologists probably will be ablo to account for one fact that has come to our knowledge, con nected with this night of terror. We beam a pas senger describe his sensations in this wise: *‘l guc*s I had been about four hours in the water,and had floated nwayfVom the rest, when tho waves ceased to inako any noise, and I fyeard my mother say, ‘Johnny, did you eat sister’s grapes?’ ” J I hadn’t thought of it for twenty years at least; it had gone olean out of ray mind. I had a sister that died of consumption moro than thirty years agoj and when sho was sick—l was a boy of cloven or so— a neighbor bad sent her some early hot house grapes. IVcl), thoso gripes wero left in a room where I was. and—l ought to havo been skinned alive for it, little rascal that I was-I devoured them all. Mother came to mo after I had gone to bed, when sho couldn't find the fruit for sister to moisten her mouth with in the night, and said: “Johnny, did you eat sister's grapes?” I did not add to too meanness of my conduct by tolling a lie. I owned up, and my mothor went away in tears, but without flogging mo. It oc casioned mo a qualm of conscience for many a year utter; but, as I said, for twenty years, at least I had not thought of it, till whoa 1 was float ing about benumbed with cold I heard it as plain as ever I heard hor voice in my life—l heard mother say, “Johnny, did yon eat sister's grapes?” ldon’tknowhowtoaccountforH, Itdid not scare iuo, though. I thoughtjfc was a presage of my death.” The Ilondcraon (Ky.) Commercial gives an 1 account of tho sad havoo made by tho hog oholera in tbo Bend, near Henderson. Scarcely a firmer has escaped destruction among his stock. Many persons havo lost every hog. both young and old, and some havo but two or tbroo left to tell the de vastation that has taken place. The symptoms aro not thoso of tho hog cholera, but more nearly re sembling tho quinoy. This disease cannot be at tributed to strychnino, as there aro no distilleries in the vicinity. A farmer in Perry county pub lishes a remedy which he says is effectual. 110 throws tho suffering pig upon his hack, forces open hi.i mouth, and applies a small quantity of tar to tho roots of tho animal’s tougue. Ho pronounces it a certain cure. The Railway Cubit says it loams from a re liable source that tho directors of tho Great Western Kailwuy Company havo now determined upon im roodiatoly erecting an iron bridge, on tho tubular or girder principle, over Niagara Hirer—the pre sent owing to the slow rate of speed at which trains can 00 permitted to cross it, being quite inadequate to meet tho requirements of tho enormous traffic daily passing over thut frontier.

[Prom the PhaDixvUle Phoenix, Sept. 19.] The Phoenix Iron Company employ two thousand men in tho manufacture of railroad iron. They have “ suspended payment.” This they did three years ago. So wealthy were they in property, and tho machinery of producing wealth, that on the ex tension which their creditors gave them, they paid every dollar of their engagements, principal and interest, at maturity. The incident of their “ failure,” as it was called, was tho material out of which a monetary panic is made. Vague, unreal, irrational, all will call it. In tho past two years this house has made large profits, and now possesses, in manufactured and un manufactured stock, real estate and machinery, a property worth treble tho amount of their liabili ties. That fact avails nothing in s stringent money market. If they cannot reduco their asets into cash, and punctually pay their- notes, capitalistsgo into a panic. Fat men with blanched cheeks rash through Change crying, “Beeves, Buck, A Co. have failed?” and go incontinently to their cash boxes, shut down the lids, and sit on them, with an inexorable and ponderous defiance. The infectionof terror issud den and complete through the money market. Capitalists lock up their wealth and lock up their faith in man, and throw tho key away—bat yet whero they can see it. A Money Panic is blind, deaf, and cruel. It can not see the enormous harvests of wheat, of corn, and of hay, with which Ceres Las enriched this broad land, as it was never before enriched—item not see the wealth of lobjcco. cotton, rice, sugar, lavishly given this aututnn 4 eoming. to the S<.uib and to us. It wilt listen to no demonstration of solvency, hear no proofs of wealth. It is utterly insensible to the spectacle of two thousand labor ing men. whoso summer is drawing to a close and whcAO winter with its frosts and itsensts is coming, asking for tho restoration of confidence in really solvent employers who furnish them with the mean* of life. It makes no distinctions between borrow ers, but involves in one common suspicion and puts under one common ban, the responsible and tbo bankrupt, the solid and tho hollow, and sits on it» chest till its delirium tremens of terror has run its course.
