I AVUf A"gu»t4\A committee We find nothing in^the appearance of the debris of the wrecked .span to justify us in attributing the wreck to defective or improper material, of workmanship or design in the original construction, or to want of proper at tention and repairing since it Vas built. We find the truss yet in place and in good Sound condition. This truss was made at the same time and as others were. We are informed that it has received the same care and attention from the officerr. of the road. i" If we may judge by the condition of other trusses from our examination of this one, they could not have been broken bv the weight of an ordinary train. While we fiud ourselves una to definitely describe the manner of the wieck, we are of the opinion it was caused by some accident to one of the fiat cars loaded with rails, crossing the bridge at a time by which ••a part of the car or of a rail became entangled in the truss, thereby dis placing some of the timbers over the weat channel pier. rpaiioy. NEW YOKK, AUGUST 4.—London dispatches state that a hundred thou sand dollars in specie have been re covered from the wreck of 'the steam ship Schiller. N. A Herald special says that yester day the Fenian Amnesty Association* -of Dubhn,issued aprodamation call' ng on Irishmen to assemble by thou sands to join in the O'Connell centen ary procession at the end of- the line. They hare resolved to carry banners inscribed "Remember the Political Prisoners—God save Ireland." At the close of the march they will as semble around the O'Connell monu ment and present Lord Hagan's ad dress to the people. It is believed Hagaa will, not deliver the oration unless' sspumd Mcfeot order. All public bousea. will be closed during the day. Four thousand- troops are quartered in diferenr sections of Dub lin. Cardinal CuKea has issued a pastor al letter enjoining strict temperance by his people. Chilian does oot fear any difficulty.

This is the true solution to the specie payment prob lem. Let American crops cross the ocean and bring back European gold, then there will be no\dif!iculty about resuming specie payments" This may be a chunk of financial wistlom. The currency contest in1 Ohio has brought out the following amusing an ecdote of the financial bravado of certain Kentucky gentlemen onccx up on a time: One of these gentlemen mentioned that no cigar lighters^ were (it hand, and taken a dollar bill from his pocket, held it in the flame of gas, and lighting his cigar with it threw the burning fragment on the floor. A second high-toned person took a five dollar note, and a third a ten dollar note, and burning them communicated the fue to the tobacco. Then an old citizen, something of a ^ag. prpduoed his clieck book. drew aNcbeck for a thousand dollars and gravfely proceeded to light his cigar with itNvThc Cincinnati Commercial wants to know whether the old citizen impoverished'^himself to thexextent of one thousandxdollar8 by burning the check, and if not .why not? !£.
