I don't know what may come afte us or what a revolution the nex twenty years may bring forth, bu ne thing is certain that the las wenty years have made a greate ,hange in New York City than tli ?receding hundred. It is simpi hat the city has enlarged, it is s< ompletely changed in everythin that a Rip Van Winkle who went t< leep twenty years ago waking ul o-day would scarcely recognize th ity in which ie went to sleep C'here are a few places which re nain unchanged in the lower ward: >f the city, but in a few years ever hese will be swept away and nol n ancient landmark will be left ['he New Yorker who reme:aber: he Battery of fifty years ago re nembers it as the great promenadc f the lovers of those days, and here were lovers then and plents ,f them-not dudes who walked long the street sucking the end of .n attenuated walking stick, bu, :anly stalwart young fellows wlho ould fight for their ,iris if occa ion required, and who when they rent to work in their stores and hops were not ashamed to put on paper cap and an apron and weep off the sidewalk or do any ther necessarv duty. Work was ot then considered a disgrace and oys were brought up to believe at the gods help those who help iemselves, and that a man's proud st boast should be that he was ble to earn his own living. I re ret to say that this noble ambition i appear independent, is dying out 2d the highest aspiration of the odern New York dude is to have te world believe that somebody se is making his living for him, seems wondIerful that any sane >ung man ini this somewhat prac :al age of ours, should aspire to it Dude all the Dudes of Dude. m. Yet on Broadway any sunny ternoon you can see Barry WVall, e acknowledged King of the udes. Don't figure to yourself a in, pale, consumptive individual at a summer zephyr would leave hopeless wreck; nothing could further from the truth. Barry all is like Fred Gebhardt, Mrs. iogtry's particular friend, a train athelete who could put on the >ves with . Billy Edwards or tchell, and not get badly knock out. The young gentlemen in the untry who start in for Dudes and nk that all that is necessary to the a first class article, is to have :onsumptive chest and a thin pair legs, had better not come to New irk. The New York Dude may et his hair in the middle and his nts may fit him like an eelskin, t he can walk his ten miles be e breakfast, throw himself over orizontal bar, and box with Suil an according to the Marquis of eensberry rules, but he won't low any useful occupation if he , or if he does he won't can ~j wit. Barry Wall let anybody . byani indus has money left h~im #Q trious father, and he startedurii to enjoy life after his fashion, e he may be called a success clothes and notoriety can make for there is not a young man New York more talked about day. He seldom wears the sa suit more than two or three hou and some of his changes are es more frequent than that; but matter how he changes he still c Dudes ali the other Dudes of N York. The seat of his pants isi approachable, the knot on his ne< tie immaculate, the curl of his superb, the widthof the rim astoui ing. He has an army of humnl folloiwers who look up to him w awe and reverence, feeling the uti hopelessness of ever arriving his stunning perfection.

There is a large graveyard on the western bank of Richiand Creek, near Mount Willing, in Edgefield County, which contains the grave of Sophia Bonham, the mother of Governor M. L. Bonham. Her father, Jacob Smith, and her mother, who was a Butler, together with hers husband, are all buried within the same enclosure. A cor respondent of the Edgefield Chron icle says: "As I stood by her grave my mind went back to the past his tory of the Bonham family. .

Linosa ia.r prefet saaTats 01 mitted suicide if lie had ever caught sight of Barry Wall. Ie can hold a big round glass in one eye longer than any other fellow in New York, and to do that well with your mouth open on one side as if you were having a tooth pulled is an accomnphslshnent which is not to be sneezed at. It is a melancholy ex hibition in one sense for the nianh hood of the future. for a more use less set than the New York Dudes could scarcely be found on the face of the earth. They seem to have no aim in life but to get peo ple to gaze at them in stupid won. :c der, at what the tool ki!ler was doing when such creatures were allowed to live. It is with pleasure that I an nounce that the season of excurs ions is drawing to a close. The strict administration of our Excise )t law on Sunday has a teddency to drive the dissipated and drinking. portion of New York and Brooklyn on the Lord's day. All sorts of . excursions are improvised to the neighboring towns, which profit of course by the hegira from the city. In fact, there are a great many places about New York which are E almost entirely supported by this Sunday trade Forty or fifty ex cursions leave here every Sunday. One advertises "The Wharf Rats ' Coteria," another "The Jumpin' t Plugs," another --The Saw Me Leg t Off R:nngers," and from the titles t you can- form a pretty good idea of r the quality of the company. To see one of these excursion boats start you might imagine that some States Prison had suddenly emptied. Riot and drunkenness > are their general characteristics ; > fights are frequent and murder not unusual. There arq also muny res -pectable people who go on these Sunday excursions, but as a gen eral thing they have cause to regret it. Of late the excursions have been worse than usual, on account of the inefficient police protection, and the almost positive immunity from punishment. Bands of or ganized roughs have taken posses sion of the boats, maiming and wounding innocent people who op posed them. The shocking murder of an inoffensive German, a couple of weeks ago, on one of these excur sions has thoroughly aroused the authorities, and we are in hopes that, at least, some of these mur derous ruffians may be brought to justice. These bands of Thugs generally make their head quarters at some liquor stare, and the chances are ten to one that it either belongs to the Alderman of the Ward, or to some intimate friend of his who conducts it in his interest. If one of the gang is arrested, the Alder man is on hand to go his bail, and by some hocus pocus the complaint is pigeon-holed, and that is the last that is heard of it. One of the very worst of the ' gang who participated in the mur der I spoke of was a young ruffian, who aspired to be a tough ; that is . to say, one who has downed his 1 man, or in other words, murdi r d ' him. This particular youth was the d terror of his desperate pals, and yet when indicated for his terrible offence, his mother testided witht tears in her eyes that he was one of 0 the gentlest, sweetest mannered 0 boys that a loving mother ever had. One of the participants in a the assassination was a villain by Y the name of Judge, who as he was escaping knocked down his female ~ companion, and almost stamped the a] life out of her with his boot lieels, And yet, with the moral perversity of womanhood;, which no fellow can explain, the poor creature with her ai head bound up, and her face bruis- Se ed beyond recognition, was at the ol ruffian's prison door pleading for P' his release. Explain the mystery t who can. It may not be desirable se or practicable to close the doors of ee our city, and keep all the people in th on S3unday; but if these excursions th are permitted they must be con- st ducted within the pale of the law. VE Police protection must be afforded as them, and if necessary An example fr4 must be made,of these lawless ri nters, such as we have been called I8 upon to make on several occasions th before.

DIST-JEAM .A SEA. liuman nature c..z: be subjected to no agonizing, susperme than that endure-J >y rtlatives and friends who anxionsly await the arrival of an overdue ship oh board of which some one dear to them has taken passage from a distant port. On the 11th of March, 1841, the Presi dent one of the finest passenger steamers of her time-left New York for Liverpool with many pas sengers on board. Three or four days after her departure .she en countered a terrific tornado not far to the south of Cape Race, and was seen by a French sailing vessel to enter a thick cloud or rain-storm, which brooded upon the face of the deep, and obscured the heavily-la boring vessel from view; in half an hour or so the cloud lifted, bat no President met the anxious eyes of the gazers, who, in the phrase of French mariners, "interrogated the borizon" in search of the missing object. There was no possibility of her having run into an iceberg or come ;nto collision with another ship ; but against her name in the undervriter's books were inscribed those melancholy words which, we are told, ought never to be em ployed in connection with a well built and well-manned craft of any kind ' foundered at sea." No trace of her existence were ever found, ezcept a few spars and part of a boat believed to have belonged to her, which were washed ashore af ter some weeks upon the coast of North Wales. Among niany other passengers of note whom she carried were inclueaed Tyrone. Power, the well-known and universally popu lar Irish comedian, and Lord Fitz roy Charlea George Lennox, see Dnd son of the late and brother of the present Duke of Richmond. Lord Fitzroy Lennox was an offi 3er in the gnards, and was on his way home from Canada in the ex ,ectation of passing his twenty. irst birth day on the following 11th )f June with attached parents. He I was his mother's favorite son, and vas named after Fitzroy Sdmerset, I inbseqnently Lord Raglan, who i iad been his father's friend and fel- i ow soldier oh the. Duke of Wel- I ington's staff during the Peninsn I ar War. There are many still t iving-and among them none tells < he story with more. feeling than he venerable and much-respected a Carl of Strafford-who well te- -s 2ember the long and protracted i gony of bope and suspense whichr be late Duchess of Richmond was I oomzed to endure. Some of those, v 2deed, who knew her beet, and c rere acquainted with the singular n epth and warmth of her aftections, I eld the opinion that, to her dying ti our-, the bereaved mother refused r > give up all ho-pe that she might d nce again be blessed with a sight a F' her lost son. That~ .hope was ei ot destined to be realized; but ti nong the mourners who year after ii aar awaited that "messege from the y ta" which was never to be received, it te late Duchess of Richmond will p, ways occupy a foremost place. d Steam voyages backward and for- Ja ard across the Atlantic have 1at- w rly been performed with such ti tonishing rapidity, that the pree tI nt generation of resi dents in the s d and new worlds are far less pre- at red than their predecessors for fi e loss of a passenger steamer'at ta a. Yet the recot'ds of that great. 1D t highway of matritime nations, h< e North A tlantic Ocean, proclaim be at during the first thirty years of m. sam navigation voyages were mi ry far indeed from being as safe tb is now the case. Thcs we learn at >mi the NatoJta?

The Collins line, built and owned in the United States, ri n four yes. sels between 1852 and 1857, ol which they lost two. The Germaa companies of Hamburg and Bire. men, established in 1855, had lost four steamers before 1874 ; the Na. tional line, one; the Guion, estab lished in 1871, has also lost one, through the fault of her captain.

"It has been computed." adds, how ever, The National Gazette, of Ne .v York, "that upward of sixteen thot sand voyages were. made across the Atlantic between 1840 and 1874 by these steamship lines.". Among the disasters to which we have re ferred none was more calamitous than those which overtook the Al lan Liner, Hungarian, wrecked off the coast of Nova Scotia in the night of February 19 and 20, 1860, with more than two hundred souls on board, and the White Star steamer Atlantic which struck a rock off the same iron-bound coast on April 18, 1872, carrying at the time more than a thousand soils, of whom 442, including Captain Williams, were saved, and 565 were lost. Many of her hepless human freight who had\ climbed into the rigging perished from cold and suffering, and the Captain upon whom the chief blame was laid, un. derwent a sentence of suspension for two years. We have said enough to show that while steam naxigation was still young the At lantic was far f.om being that easi ly-crossed "ferry" which Charles Dickens was invited to consider it when he made his first trip to the United States in 1841.

Nothing has been iid in this miserable attempt which' in bring him into the society of ue pure stateemen of the past.
