The following report of the Committee
a Resolutions was unanimously adopt-
Iri:
1 V!e hold it to be absolutely essential to
I tie preservation of the liberties of tho
I titiiaa, that the several States shall he
I maintained in all their rights, dignity
I is! equality as such, complete and inali-
| enable, and that the administration of
their own domestic concerns is tho surest
I Ireastwork against anti-republican ten-
I dearies. Every attempt on the part of
[too Federal Government to exercise a
[power not delegated to it in the Com
I -titution, or to exercise delegated pow
ers iu a manner not therein prescribed,
h aa act of usurpation, demanding the
| instant and unqualified condemnation of
|»people jealous of their liberties, and we
| hold that any unconstitutional interfer
ence by the General Government with
local affairs of any State, to any ex-
| fat, on any pretence whatever, should
i* at once repudiated and condemned by
classes of every section of the Union,
such acta tend directly to the des-
: tion of our federal system and the
| adulation of all power in a centralized
h-potism.

eral millions of dollars in aid of their
several institutions of learning.

and effective speech. The enthusiasm
was so great that the chair had constantly
to suppress the applause which broke
forth.
Dr. Mukle, of Alabama, and Dr. Broad-
us, of South Carolina, also spoke with
great earnestness and effect. Scarcely
any other business was transacted.

shocking marine disaster has just reached
this city. The Eagle Lino steamer
Schiller, Captain Thomas, which sailed
from New York on April 28th for Ham
burg, by way of Plymouth and Cher
bourg, has been wrecked off the Soilly
Isles. It is believed that 200 persons
have perished.
12:30 p. sr.—Additional particulars thus
far received of the wreck of the steam
ship Schiller, show that the disaster is
fully as terrible a3 at first reported. The
accident occurred at 10 o’clock last night,
at whichhour tho steamship struck on tho
dangerous Retarriere ledges near Bishop’s
rock. A fog prevailed at the time. A
boat belonging to St. Angles on the
southernmost part of tho Scilly Isles, has
landed some of the survivors of the
wreck at St. Mary’s Island, another of
the Scillys. These survivors were picked
up while swimming with the tide. They
had several narrow escapes from drown
ing, and were a number of times washed
off a rock. They declared that the num
ber of lives lost by the disaster is 200.
A fearful sea is raging and it is scarcely
possible for the boat3 engaged in search
ing for the survivors to live. The Scilly
life boat has put off for tho wreck.

Tho steamship is now lying broadside on
tho rocks. She is under water and her
mainmast is gone. A steamer and sev
eral boats are cruising about the scene of
the wreck, searching for survivors. The
disaster was owing to a dense fog which
prevailed, neither of tho Scilly lights
being seen.
London, 2 p. m.—Tho wreck of tho
steamship Schiller has caused great ex
citement in this city. Extras containing
all the particulars at hand of the disaster
have been issued by several of the news
papers. Later dispatches hold out hope
that some few persons may havo escaped
and reached other of the Scilly islands.
New York, May 8.—Tho agents of the
Eagle Line say that Captain Thomas, of
the Schiller, was tho oldest commander
on the line. He was for many years in
the employ of tho Peninsula and Oriental
Company, and occupied ji high place
among B:
ing for the survivors and the bodies of
tbe drowned.
5 p. x.—Twenty-six of the persons who
were on board the Schiller, in addition to
those before reported saved, have landed
at Terscow and Bryer islands, belonging
to the Scilly gronp. Among these are
the second, third and fourth officers. The
captain is certainly drownod.

on the latest pattern. She was built on
the Clyde by Robert Napier & Sons.
Her sister 6hip is the Leasing. These
two vessels left thi3 port for home dense
ly crowded, being the first to take advan
tage of tho opening of the spring travel
to Europe. They were tho last two
steamers that soiled under the flag of
the Eaglo Line, which had been consoli
dated with the Hamburg-American Lino.
Previous to tho departure of tho Schiller,
the company’s vessels had gone out with
light passenger lists.
London, May 8, 2:30 p. m.—Up to tjus

ing the independence of the country and
the integrity of its institutions and the
liberty of tho press had disappeared. At
the same time the neutral position of

agents of the fine to which the Schiller
belonged. Friends of those on board the
ill-fated steamer, male and female, kept
coming in a continuous stream to ascer
tain it anything had been heard in re
gard to those they sought, and being an
swered in the negative, as was generally
the case, gave vent to their grief in load
lamentations. In many cases fathers
made inquiries touching their wives and
children, who had embarked for tho fa
therland on a visit; In others brothers
for numerous sisters, and in others
children for their parents* In the ab
sence of definite information regarding
the saved and lo3t, all those who havo
friends in the vessel aro in the deepest
disress.

On the day of tho Schiller’s sailing a
predominance of female passengers, both
in cabin and the crowd of steerage passen
gers, who hung over the bulwarks a3 the
ship put off, was specially noticed.
London, May 8, 9r. m.—Up to this
hoar but forty-three of the persons who
were on board tho Schiller aro known to
be saved. Twenty-five sacks of the
steamship’s mail bos also been saved.

THE BLACK HILLS.
A Monster Combination—Eighteen
nundred Men Enrolled.
A special dispatch to the Philadelphia
Times, dated New York, April 30, says:
The New York Block Hills Company,
which a3 been organizing for the last two
weeks in conjnction with Boston and
Philadelphia companies for location in
the Block Hills country, numbers about
1,000 men. The President, Mr. O. H.
Pierson, is in communication with the
authorities at Washington, who have
summoned delegations of Sioux chiefs to
effect, if possible, a treaty with them for
the surrender of their land3. They intend
to secure a large territory and lay out
villages, districts and farms, and they
will locate and work the gold mines.
They have arranged with tho railroad com
panies for tickets to the Black Hills at
greatly reduced rates, fifty-five dollars
being tho price of possago from either
New York, Boston or Philadelphia. The
three companies already number 1,800
men, and applications for membership are
constant. All tbe companies will meet
in New York on the 11th of May to per
fect tho organization and the details of
the enterprise. What the real prospects
of tho enterprise aro can probably better
be determined then.

Tlie Clialdean Account ol the
Deluge.
Tho interest excited a couple of years
ago by Mr. George Smith’s translation of
a fragmentary Chaldean account of the
Deluge from the Assyrian tablets discov
ered by Layard is renewed by the same
gentleman’s recovery from the ruins of
Kouyunjik of missing parts of that re
cord, nearly restoring the whole inscrip
tion, which is supposed to date from at
least two thousand years before the
Christian era. This Chaldean version,
however, differs in many respects from
the Biblical legend, of which it is mani
festly tho prototype, not only in its minor
details bat chiefly in the polytheism of
its myth. Hasisadra, the Chaldean
Noah, is transformed into a demi-god,
who, in his immortal abodo tells an
earthly visitor tho story of .his escape
from the flood wherewith the gods pun
ished the wickedness of the chi
ren of men. His floatings on the
face of tho waters were of much
briefer duration than those re
hearsed in Genesis, the deluge described
by him having lasted but six days, and
his vessel having been stranded npon the
mountains of Nizir on the seventh day,
whilst the Noachian ark fonnd no resting
placo until the seventeenth day of the
seventh month from its launching, and
nearly a year elapsed before the earth
was restored to a habitable condition.
The graceful Scriptural legend of the
winged messenger of peace, from which
the olive branch derives its emblematical
significance, is less poetically given in
the older version, though the correspond
ence of the two is close enough to show
their relationship. The raven first sent
out by Noah plays no important part in
the drama, the successive "journeys of the
dove, his later emissary, leading to his
ultimate release. In tho Assyrian story
these episodes are reversed in order of
time and importance. Hassaisdra is made
to say
On tho saventh in tho course of it
I sent forth a dovo and it left. Tho dove went
and turned, and
A resting place it did not find, and it returned.
I sent forth a raven and it left.
The raven went, and the corpses on tho water it
saw, and
It did cat, it swam, and wandered away, and did
not return.
I sent the animals forth to the four winds, I pour-
cd out a libation,
I built an altar on tho peak of tho mountain.
By seven herbs I cut
At the bottom ol them I placed reeds, pine and
Tho gods collected at its burning, tho god, col
lected at its good burning;
The gods liko flies over the sacrifice gathered.
In addition to thi3 most interesting
discovery, Mr. Smith fonnd in the course
of hi3 Assyrian explorations more than
three thousand fragments of ancient in
scriptions relating, among other things,
the legends of tho Creation, of the Tower
of Babel, etc., which may prove of great
importance not only in their mythological
but in their ethnological bearings.

The Somerville (Tenn.) Falcon esti
mates the loss of horses and mules in that
FmtM Disaster la ^st River,
Kew lark, i-r, -irfagJt
From the World, we learn that a heart
rending calamity occurred near piers 23
snd 24, East River, New York. We print
some of the particular,:
Four lives were lost, hut the faces of
lookers on betrayed no horror, no anxiety,
only mere idle cariosity. Bat little sym
pathy was expressed for the father whose
heart bled for the loss of his four chil
dren. He was but a poor, ignorant Por
tuguese sailor, captain of a small scow
which had been run into by the City of
Hartford that morning. The collision
had destroyed alibis furniture and cloth
ing on the barge, had killed four of his
six children, hod brought his wife to the
▼ergo of death, and he was almost crazy-
with grief. In a few brief seconds how
completely had life changed all its colors
to him.
HOW IT OCCURRED.
The collision, as all eye-witnesses agree,
occurred at a quarter past eight o’clock
in the morning. The accounts as to the
causes of the accident differ. The City
of Hartford was trying to make her land
ing, as usual, at pier No. 24. Being
caught in a strong current she passed the
Brooklyn bridge pier. The captain, Wm.
Miner, saw that she had passed her land
ing place. Her helm was pat hard to
starboard, the captain expecting to inn
astern of the Hamilton Fish, which was
lying at pier No. 23. Unfortunately the
scow used as a ballast barge for the Ham
ilton Fish lay alongside a canal boat, which
separated her from tbe Hamilton Fish,
the scow being on the outside and facing
the stern of the City of Hartford. Capt.
Miner, seeing that he had come in don
erous proximity to the scow, rang the
ell to back, but, driven by the excep
tionally strong wind and tide, the large
steamer still went ahead, and Capt. Miner
then rang the signal bell to “back hard.”
Alas, it was too late. The huge craft—
huge in comparison with the tiny barge
that lav helpless before her—bore relent
lessly down upon the scow, npon which
were eight precious lines.
THE CALAMITY,
The effect was instantaneous. Scarcely
had the steamer struck the scow in tho
sideere the water burst through the
breach and the barge was completely
overturned. A second before the captain
of the barge had stood on the deck en
gaged in hi3 usual duties. He had jump
ed upon the canal boat to save hi3 life,
his wife was helplessly struggling in the
water and there wero four of his children
in the cabin drowning. Captain Costa—
that is the poor man’s name—behaved
with great self-possession. Seeing the
steamer hear down npon his boat, he in
stantly comprehended the danger. His
first thought was to save his wife and
childron, who were in the cabin. He
plnhged into the cabin, seized his wife,
lifted her to the deck, bnt it was too late
to save the children. Tho boat was cap
sized. He leaped upon the canal boat,
while his wife slipped from his grasp and
follintotheriver. Asthebargetnraedover
the helplesB father cned out—as the cap
tain of tho City of Hartford testifies—
“Oh, my children I” What a world of
anguish must have been crowded into
those three words!
COMING TO THE RESCUE.
What human aid could do to save life
and to stay sacrifice was done. The
steward and several men on the pilot boat
James Gordon Bennett witnessed the dis
tressing accident. They jumped into a
small boat to save Mrs. Costa. She wa3
ill and sadly in need of the gentlest care
and the kindest protection. Luckily she
was saved—saved, at least, for a while;
for, although she had recovered from tho
shock yesterday afternoon, her life was
not ont of danger.
SEARCHING TOR THE CHILDREN.
The most crying moment to the father’s
heart had arrived. While the stoward of
the James Gordon Bennett was taking
care of Mrs. Costa and trying to revive
her (no woman’s tender hand wa3 near to
administer to her in this awful predica
ment) with brandy and other stimulants,
while Captain Costa wa3 frantically
mourning the loss of his children, Cap
tain Williams, of tho Oak street police
station, had been sent for, and he, with
the aid of several policemen and others,
commenced searching for the children.
It took fully twenty minutes before a
hole could be cut in the bottom of the
scow, when it was found that in the tow
ing the barge had been turned round, and
thus tho work had to be done over again.
At lost another hole was cut—the father
trembling all the time lest by some mira
cle life might not be quite extinct in his
dear ones. (How fondly we cling to a
straw in our sorrow!)
dead!
Several of the men plunged their arm3
through the aperture. They felt a wo
man's dress, which wa3 entangled in sev
eral pieces of fernitnre. After a chair
and a table had been brought forth, the
body of the eldest child, a blooming girl
of sixteen, was pulled up. She was com
pletely dressed, but the sleeves of her
frock wero rolled up, as though some
domestic task had engaged her when the
collision occurred. Her arms were raised
and bent over her head, tho inference be
ing that death came npon her a3 she was
struggling—poor thing—to force her way
out. Her name was B ella, and the father
looked at her with an expression that
would have moved a heart of stone. And
soon the other three were disentangled;
Julia, a girl of seven; Teresa of three,
difficulty been restrained from clasping
the lifeless form of his seven-year-old
daughter in his trembling arms, was com
pletely overcome. It must he added that
George, aged eight, and Michael, aged
thirteen, had been saved. George was
on the deck of the scow, and being warned
of the danger jumped upon the coal boat,
and Michael was on some other vessel
near by.
Another Awfnl Tragedy at Sea.
Our telegrams this morning are full of
the details of another terrible disaster at
sea, by which, it is supposed, at least two
hundred lives have been lost. The
steamship “Schiller” of the Eagle line,
plying between Now York and Hamburg,
ran on tho rocks off one of the Scilly
group of islands on Friday night during
a dense fog, and at thi3 hour—4 f. m.—
we see no reason to believe that the ex
tent of the disaster has been exaggerated.
We hardly see how it conld have been
otherwise under the circumstances. The
fog was so dense, it is stated, as to ob-
scuro tho lights on the island, and thus
the good ship ran right onto her doom.
Tho Scilly group consists of somo half
dozen islands which lie in the Atlantio
ocean sonthwest of Lands End, the south
ernmost point of England, at a distance
of forty or fifty miles. The Schiller was
probably rounding this gronp to get into
the English channel when tho accident
occurred. Our night telgram3 will prob-
contain fuller details of tho wreck.
ably
Apropos of this disaster, wo find tho
following in the New York Herald of a
late date:
About two years ago the Eagle lino of
steamships was ushered into existence
under auspices which bado fair to bring
fortunes to the merchants who estab
lished it. The steamers were of the most
approved models; a maghificent dock
was built at Hoboken at a cost of $600,-
000, and the whole stock of tho company
was valued at $16,000,000. Many poor
people in Germany were induced to in
vest all their property in the concern, and
it is said that Prince Bismarck indirectly
speculated in it. The vessels plied be
tween Hamburg and Hoboken, calling at
Plymouth and Cherbourg each way. On
Tuesday the Lessing, the last steamer of
the line, sailed from the Hoboken dock,
and tbe dock, with all the company’s
property, has been offered for sale.
The steamers are to be placed un
der the hammer in Germany, and the
Hamburg Steamship Company is to buy
them for service on that route. It is
said that many people hare been ruined
by this unexpected failure of the Eagle
Line Company.

THE BEBCHEB-TILTON TRIAL.
Bowen on tbe Stand—He Contradicts
Beecher Several Timet.
A New York special to the Cincinnati
Commercial, of Thursday, has the follow
ing concerning Bowen’s appearance on
the stand the day before and what he
said. Hi3 evidence seem3 to hit Beecher
heavily:
It was Bowen who told Tilton the adul
terous stories about Beecher, who carried
Tilton’s letter to Beecher, who was the
mover in the early intrigue, and who
ceased not in his operations till they cul
minated in tho tripartite treaty. "We have
had the whole volumes of testimony dur
ing the trial abont Bowen, his sayings,
and doings, now and then, here and there,
and it has been fearfully contradictory
and wholly unsatisfactory. Bowen was
denounced by Tracy, defied by Beecher,
and outlawed by the defense, and Bowen
has been the central figure of horrible
stories connected with both Beecher and
Tilton, that have not appeared in the
trial, affecting ladies related to him in
various ways. Both sides have feared and
despised Bowen, bnt now, at last, we are
having Bowen himself.
Bowen is about sixty, with a fall gray
beard, a rim of gray hair round his head.
His eyes are small, and at once keen and
dull. His forehead is narrow, but ob
trudes prominently, He is exceedingly
lean in body andface, and his facial bones
obtrnde through his dry skin, so that
you see his outlines like those of a skull.
His looks are really Mephis tophilean from
the bare head down over the long,narrow
face to the peaked beard- As he Bat in
the elevated chair and gazed around the
court room, there was a sense of pain in
his face, as though he were suffering from
some fatal disease. Bowen’s voice is thin,
bnt he spoke loud enough to ho heard all
over court.
His testimony was both important and
sensational. It bore very hard npon
Beecher, at whose church and with whom
he took the communion of the sacrament
last Sunday. He contradicted many
points of Beecher’s evidence, and threw
donbt over many others. He gave a new
version of the original scandal interview.
He told of the tripartite treaty in a way
confirmatory of Tilton’s evidence. He
testified about sundry matters in contra
diction to tho evidence of the Beecher
witness. Immediately after a few pre
liminary questions, Bowen began to con
tradict various details in the evidence of
Beecher. Ho denied one of Beecher’s
allegations, two of them, three of them,
and as soon as Evart3 saw the tendency
of his testimony, he began to object to
each of the questions, and the movement
of evidence wa3 much interrupted by ar
gument. Bowen contradicted Beecher
for the fourth time and the fifth. The
business began to look exciting. Porter,
who ha3 not opened his mouth for two
months, began to take part in the melee
on the Beecher side by putting in a few
words now and then. Bowen went on
contradicting in detail the sworn asser
tions of Beecher. Each of hi3 denials,
which wero explicit, and delivered with
sharp emphasis, caused a new sensation.
Beecher’s counsel were amazed. The
spectators wero agitated. Tilton, Moul
ton and Carpenter, who sit closely to
gether wero in glee. The blood rushed
to the face of Fullerton, Bowen’s exam
iner, as though ho were about to faint,
upon which the Judge asked him to take
relief by sitting down. "Wo sat in hush
ed silence, os we used to do during the
time when wo had startling revelations.
Beecher himself was not present in court.
Ho has been absent since the forenoon of
Monday, His wife, his brother, his
danghter-in-law and other of his rela
tives were present. The details thus far
given related to the-famous interview of
December 26.
The Beecher party expect to see him
badly damaged on the cross. Bowen had
carried in his pocket every document
that was required, and produced them as
they wero called for.
The Brooklyn Argus, same date, com
ments as follows upon Bowen’s testi
mony :
If we remember correctly, Beecber ex
plained his grief and letters by his con-
‘ " ‘ilia*
viction that he had done Tilton an injury
by advising Mrs, Tilton to separate from
him, and by his advice to Bowen by
which Tilton lost his editorial position.
Bowen swears Tilton haid been dismissed
from his editorial position prior to any
conversation on the subject with Beecher,
and that Beecher did not advise him to
discharge Tilton. Bowen swears the
payment of $7,000 by him to Tilton had
nothing whatever to do with the settle
ment of the scandal difficulties. The de
fense set up the theory that Tilton
wrung that money out of Bowen by
threatening to publish the scandal.
