The Sortrtf for tlw Roller of DeiUtnU Chil dren of 8r?men-Elf(hth Annlvemiy. The eighth anniversary of the Society for the Relief Of Deetitute Children of Seamen, wu? held yesterday afternoon at the " Home" for the children of seamen, near the Sailor'* Snog Harbor, Staten Island At 1 o'clock P. M.. a very Urge number of visiters from the city, interested in this most deserving institu tion, left the foot of Liberty street in the New Brighton boat, and arrived at the " Home" shortly before two. After a tour of inspection throngh the building, which waf found to be admirably fitted up for the purposes for which it was designed, the visiters pieeent proceeded to the roomt devoted to educations! purpose'*. Here the children, under the care of the socie ty, to the namber of one hundred and ten were congregated, awaiting the examination of visiters. Mr. Joseph McKeon, City Su perintendent of Common Schools, examined the schoUrs at some length npon the various branches of a common education, and found them on the whole remarkably profit lent. f The children were dressed very neatly and seemed Cheerful and happy. We have seldom seen so mauv healthy, intelligent and good looking juveniles congre gated together. The anniversary exercises were conducted in the spa cious hall of the institution, in the presence of n * cry Urge auditory. Mr. Buell occupied the chair. The pro ceedings were opened with prayer by the Iter. Mr. Brov . eh, after which the annual report was read by Rev Mr l'arkcr. From this document, which though some f Mat lengthv is exceedingly interesting, it appears thai during the year tifty-throo children have been admitted into the "Home." Foil\-seven for various causes have left. The whole number of children in the '?Home" is now one hundred and ten, of whom but four teen have paid the sum of fifty cents per week, as laid down in the regulation!. The expenses of the institution re >7,000 per year and the subscription li t fell fur hoi t of that sum. The necessity for the increased subscriptions of the benevolent is" theiol'ore easily seen. The receipts J Turing the vc..r amounted to #7,411, and the Trea- i urer has paid, in legitimate e^iensc-a, *>7,201 2fk The | oeietv is indebted to t'rn Trustcejof tlio Sailors' Snug j Harbor to the amount of #!H,000. It lias a vested fund ol 92,000. and a Si-nki.-,' fund of St.OOJ. The report in conclusion ai-rcols to ilio benevolence of the public, nnd calls upon all who are well disposed toward the noble charity to contribute of their mean* in its behalf. Rev Mr. liutcher, of Bergen, was the first speaker. | He said .? Ladies, w ken our lie iveuly Father has bidden us to ? ugage in a work which is at once en honor and a glory to our race?which in m-ny cares looks not only to th - present, hut i-eers far onward into the future: which not only insures a reward for time, but in many cases one for eternity?how con wo hesitate to do it? To rejoice with those that re.ioiee?to weep with those that weep to he a parent to the orphan?to 1* a friend to the un fortunate?to im|>art of the possessions which (iod has given us to an institu'ion of real charity, is a nobio work, and is sure to make de3 :end blessings upon the head of those who engsgt in it. But, as we hare toll you, it requires faith in its performance, and in the case of this realty praiseworthy institution you must cast your bread broadcast upvn the waters, trusting in God, that notwithstanding the win-'s and the waves iiml the storms, it will return to vou a-rain, even though it may have been the sport of the ocean for many days. And could I feel that one, in any manner connected witli this truly benevolent enterprise, lacked this necessary faith, j I would ark tlirm to think well upon all the good which has already- been done, and then to anticipate all that I shall be accomplished in the future. B it I would ask J them to go a step further, and pon ler well upon nil the | providence which has ovortaken them thus far; whether j God has not given lh< m friends, and continually caused their cup to run over with mercies; whether he has not j always watched over tliem with more than parental ] solicitude, nnd whether, judging from the past, they | can have any apprehension for the future ; willing, when lving upon a bcJ of death, to go down amid ?

Suppose It he scarcely peneptibic .-it first, still it will ho I. and mingling with kindred drops,"thei o may flow forth a living stream to gladden and to bless." Bee volence is a principle of j heavenlv origin. Its s*ar:!rg r.oiut Is the Great White Th. one.'and from tin-nee It radiates r.ll worlds, and every ihing in the tl.rce kingdnr . cf nature is impregnated by it. Bcnev.lence is written upon the ro e as it sends foith its fragianct- upon the air, and blooms so beautiful ly for every eye. Benevolence is written upon tnc dew drop that sparkles so brilliantly in the rays of the morn itg sun. Benevolence is writt< n upon every wave of the oci an.as it bears upon it* bosom the thousand merchant men visiting everv clinic. Benevolence is written upon every harvest field waving in rlie w ind?upon the hound less prairie that feeds the swarming h' rd* upon its bosom ?upon evc-y star that looks down upon us on a cloud less night: and oli, and above all, it Is legibly written npon fiery act of the Saviour's, from the time he laid aside bis sceptre and his crown in heaven, till ho return ed to take them up again, a way worn pilgrim from the shores of time. Everything is benevolen*, and every thing serves a3 encouragement* to 'hose who enter ujion its perfoimance with faith. You may remember in the beginning of our remarks that we tol-1 you we conceived the principle of true benevolence to be embodied in one of the passages to which we had occasion to refer?"Cast thy liread upon the waters, for thou shalt find it after many days"?and that in these word*, and, indeed, in every truly benevolent ect thero is to l-e done, which, to some extent requires the exercise of faith in its per formance But there is another which we suppose to be contained in these words, w liicb, as we havo told you, are an ? mliodlmast of this noble principle?a promise for faith to trust. Again, we hold it to be true that in every reailv ' benevolent deed there is an im? plied prom.se. for faith to trust. He wbo end? . . , ... w uuu. ne wno endcu vor* to do good to those around him, has,to say the very least, s virtual promise that h? shall not lose his re ward. As the husbandman rinds his seed in an abund ant harve t. and as the merchantman his venture in a rich return, so lie who casts his charity upon the wa ters. shall find it returning to him again. '-It will bring a full interest In the prc-ent gifts of God's providence, and graces snd comfor ts of the spirit, nnd the principle is laid up in heaven, for it is lent unto the Lord." Tax vour memory to the utmost, and see if voir can lay your finger upon the time when lending to the Saviour.he did not pay you again, yea, and give vo-t more than an equivalent. When you clothe the naked, wken you feed the hungry, jea. when you give a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, havo you not a promise that ysu shall receive a disciple's reward? Everything conspire* to tell us that though that reward may be slow in rom yet a?xu:edly it will Come. The object tor which you labored mar almost be forgotten, and those whom you sought to benefit msy have passed awsy, yet in an hour when you least expect It, and in a way you think not of. you shall find your reward returning.

In some respects you stand in their pa ?ent'." place*. 1 know not.but aa I look over that group of children. I feel that some of th?rn are orphans, 'hat their fathers are sleeping, not in yonder burial ground, but on some distant shoie, or they found a grmre beneath the dark blue waters of the ocean, and when tlwv died the wild winds chsunted their funeral dirge. Other*, perhaps, are fated never to see their rhtidien ; lone wanderers they would be upon the high way of life, unless Providence kindly gave them friends Oh. can'vou not feel that you shall have re- I eeired your disciple's rewsrd and giro them the kindness which is contemplated In your intuitu'ions? Can you not feel, touching this Interesting group. that If vou cast ; yoor bread upon the water, yon shall find it again' If you are kind to those whose fathers are numbered with the dead, or whose fathers are now wandering some where upon the ocean, can vou doubt but that Heaven | will be kind to sou. and richly reward you for your la bor* of love' Purely you can eiercisc sufficient confl > in God to rely npon the promise being fulfilled. Go oa In your noble work with resolute hearts an^rith strong hands and cast your bread upon the waterr and you will find it again in the increase of worldly posses atone I cannot but feel that he who engages |n such a w**k as this?who endeavors in this modest and impor tant way to benefit thoae who are really worthy objects of his charity. I* mating a profitable investment of his peopertv? If the Bible be true, 1:# who thus lends to the lord shall never become the poorer?he shall be hleesed in his basket and in bis store, nnd around him will the Saviour throw hla arms of no hanging lore. To him especially la the promise applicable, tha' our tons shall be as plants grown up in their youth?that our daughters shall be as corner atones polished after the similitude of a palace, and that our earners shall be full, affordingaU manner of store! Bat too shall have your reward in the eon scion?is* of fulfilled duty. Benevo lence. ae we hare told vou, is allks a law ef nature and of God. It is the chain that holds together the universe, and that connects heaven with earth. Toe planets that rtvelve in such regular order, and which observe such perfect harmony around the sun,their centre, contianally give and receive?and shall man be an eiception to thie general rulef Shall he not be a helper, the one to theoth erf Ten, and when, in compliance with the command of your Maker, you are endeavoring to discharge obligations which you owe to these destitute children, as portion* of the gTeat family of man, you shall find your reward ia the pleasant rejection of having done a good deed.

In such a work you are engaged ;doub t not but that kind Heaven will more than repay you for all your labor and toil towards the children , for v hose sake you bare done so mush. But you shall i bare your reward in a sweet remembrance upon the bod of death. And here your return will bo large. It is a precious cordial in tbo dying hour | to feel that we htve done all the good we 1 could; and beyond controversy there is a luxury 1 then in the remembrance of an act like this which now - engages lour attention. To have wiped away with the I gentle hand of love the tears of the orphan?to hava bten friends to the friendless?to have ellcitel the gra i titude and thanl.s of the stranger?to hare clothed, and ; fed. and educated, and trained up for heaven, these des i litnte children of the generous liearlol sailor, cannot j fail in the last hour to cause a thousand pleasant me ! mories to cluster around your pillow Sweet, sweet will l>e the retrosjiects of such acts of charity.

Mr. Paiikkr, of the Seamen's Bethel, male a few appropriate remarks, mainly consisting of anecdotes illustrative of the good elects of this and fimilai insti tutions. Rev. Pr. Tvno, who had lie'n annnuncod as the last speaker, said he would not, at that late hour, trespass upon their attention. He exptos-ed his desire to see this deserving institution free fiom debt and able to go ou prosperously in its noble work. The meeting then adjourned. American Simdny S< hool Union.

From Mr. Joseph Foiscy, tbe manager, we learned that there were at lea-t twenty white persons in the pit, and that there was very little reason to hope that any of them weie alive. Mr. Job Atkint. an experienced miner, and oneofthe superintendents of the Midlothian Pits, had come over and at once volunteered Ito descend to ascertain the re sult of the explosion, and, if po-sible, secure any of the miners who might not be dead. Fresh air was immedi ately pumped in, the pit purified. and Mr. A., with other volunteers stepped Int-o the bucket and wore immediately lovered. They had only be<-n down a short time when tbe signal was given, and the bucket, containing the crushed, mangled and lifeless body of Moses Cyrie was drawn up. The bucket being again lowered, the signal was repeated, and 11m. Elliot wasdravn up, dreadfully burned and bruised, but not dead. He was immediately taktn to bis boarding hou e near by. where medical alii was promptly given: but it is greatly feared that he can not recover. The third body rescued was that of Jos. Rightshaw. an intelligent lad of about fourteen years of age, whose rather was tided by au explosion in the same pit in 1851. Ibis poor little fellow had a helpless widowed mother, and perhaps brothers and sisters, for whose support he was laboring at tbe time of his death. His remains were badly burned and ch.-rred, b it his countenance was calm and placid as if only asle p. The fourth sig nal brought up the blackened and charred corpse of Ro bert (.rostlck. a man of familv, and A very worthy citl ren. who, from appearances, was just in the act of put lmP his hand to hi* mouth, when the explosion which I killed him took place.

Wo copy from flic New Orleans Delia of the 11th iiist.. the card addressed by Matt. F. Ward to the public press, nuiking the reasonable request tbat he should not be condemned by the public, after being acquitted by a juiy, before they got an accurate and reliable report of the whole evidence given at the trial?evidence which he says has been very Imperfectly and loosely given in the public papers:? TO THE EDITORS OF THE UNITED STATES. Gbsti km in?Ifl felt less confidence in the justice and magnanimity of the American people, 1 would not now intrude myself upon your notice. My position is one which may well be considered peculiar in the United States, where the laws have hitherto been respected, and where the verdiet of a jury has been regarded as final in all criminal cases. Acquitted, though still accused; free, though still persecuted, I must appeal, through the columns of the Delta, to vour generosity, and beg a sus pension of opinion until the evidence in my case can be laid before you. I can blame no man for feeling strong prejudice against me. or for expressing the loudest condemnation of that unfortunate deed, which has boon an darkly and ingeni ously exaggerated by my enemies. The public have as yet seen but one side of this case, and that one 1ms been inoat unscrupulously misrepresented liy those eager for my blood and ruin. I have been acquitted by a jury of my peers, and in most cases this would be vindication enough, ami even In my case, perverted as it has been, my acquittal should at least argue a presumption of my innocence, strong enough to Induce the most hostile to pause till thev can examine the testimony produced at my trial. This is all 1 desire, and surely it is not much lorn man to ask who lias uncomplainingly submitted to as much as I have done. A full and impartial report of the testimony in the case has been prepared by Mr. A. D. Richardson," one of the most accomplished short hand writers in the West, and will scon be issued from tho press of Messrs. D. Applet an ft Co., New York. Although 1 felt the highest confidence ,'u Mr Richardson's ability and impartiality, yet when I iemembereil the former course of my enemies, the pre caution was taken to have the report authenticated by several gentlemen, whese positions place them above even the soaring accusations of the Courier. All that I ask from you, gentlemen of the press, Is si lence until this report can be placed before the public, add if you do not then discover some better reason for my acquittal than the corruption of the jury, 1 am will ing to submit to your universal condemnation. I have made no previous attempt to resist the designs of my enemies?not, as they would falsely Insinuate?because I bad no defence to make, but because I relied with confi dence on the just administration of the laws of my coun try. I break that silence now, which the better judg ment of friends formerly imposed upon me, only because my persecutors seem to have lost all respect for law, and have constituted thcir.selvea a higher tribunal, to reverse the decision of a jury regularly em panneled by the proper authorities of the State. Once more I appeal to the generosity of the press in this country, and conjure every editor, in the name of justice and humanity, to read the report of my trial? weigh well the testimony on both sides, and then declare to the world whether! have not the right to say that injus tiie, black injustice, hat been done me. And if many are convinced by tho testimony that ray persecutors have not been sustained in the ca*e which tlicy made out against roe, I have too much conlidenee in the magna nimity of American editors to doubt 1hat they will con fess that they have been misled, and will expose the un justifiable means used to deceive them and to injure me. Be just, be generous, gentlemen i f the press. Read this report and consider closely its contents. The Louisville Cotiri'r ba*. I believe, proposed to pub lish my trial in pamphlet form; but the gentleman who waa employed by this paper is not a' stenographer, and the report could not bo full and satisfactory in all the details of cross-examination, even if his notes were fairly published. Mr. Cole would not, I know, make an unfa'ir report for any consideration but from past expe rience I should apprehend tbat some liberties "might be taken with his notes before they see light I make this suggestion for his sake as we'd as my own. It ia a fact worth noting, too, that whilst Mr Cole was preparing this report to the Courier he wrote letters to his paper, the Cincinnati (lazette, in which he expressed an opinion that I would be acquitted, which was based on the evi dence in the case. We may hereafter have an opportu nity of comparlEg Mr. Cole's opinion of the testimony with the version the Courier may give to it. MATT. F. WARD. The Steamer Pike Sunk on the Mississippi? (treat Xnmlwrof Lire* [From the St. Lout* Itepublioan. May 13 ] The packet Fashion arrived from Louisville laat even ing. bringing the drat intelligence of the loss of the re gular packet Tike, on her way from this port to Louis ville. The Pike left our port at 4 T. M. of Thursday, having on board about one hundred and eighty passen gers, crew, Ac. The boat, as we leurn from a statement furnished to us by one of the passengers, had a delight ful run until near Wilkinson's Landing, one hundred miles from rt. Louis. About 1 o'clock at night, wl en all the passengers were asleep, and the boat was making some fifteen miles an hour, she struck a snag or rook, which tore her bottom out and caused her to sink with great rapidity. Not more than throe minutes e!sp-ed before the water was up to the ladies' cabin, So sudden was the accident, that women an.l children became frantic with apprehension. Mothers were screaming for their children?husbands seekiog for their wWes?ministers seeking, on their knees, the aid and protection of Old. Not knowing the number of female passengers on board. ?avs the writer, 1 can only give you a few prominent items in regard to the lose of life. A very aged gentle man and hia wife, of Missouri. were going 03 a trait to their daughter, redding in the neighborhood of Madison, some fifteen miles back; they were drowned. When the boat struck, she careened ?o suddenly that the water filled the beTths before the occupant* could get out. Two other perm ns jumped overboard In front of the wheel- 1 house, and were lost. Three others sprang out at the stern of the vesael. and sank to rise no more. It is the iniprcssion of the writer that fifteen lives were lost by tllis calamity. The officers and crew of tho boat acted with great promptness and kin ir.ess to all on board. The calmness and !elf-posaes?ion < f somo of the J passengers saved many lives. Many person* were dis posed to jump overboard in the vain hope of easing their lives, but they were prevented from doing so. Mr. Hatcn, of Cincinnati, and a gentleman of Memphis. Tennessee, liy the name of leave Young, were particu larly conspicuous In their efforts in this way- One lady was caught by the hair of the head, and saved from drowning. Of course the passengers w ere only dressed in their night clothes, and great quantities of clothing were seen floating about the boat, which they attempted to re corer. From mother gentleman, who was also a passenger, we learn that theloas of life waa much greater. In his opinion, from forty to fifty persons were drowned. He was in the small boat, and saw eleven persona drown around him. without being able ta save them. li? at taches censure to the officers, not for their general con duet. but for their want of management (n launching the boat, and thus contributing to save life. He thinks tliat four of the cabin passengers were drowned, and that the main leas waa from tha deck, where there ware a large number of passengers, of whom no account enn be given. The boat careered from the shore, and numbers went overboard et this moment. No list of passengers was made ont after thev had reached the shore and the ev cittQKttt w?s ortr,'*ud It it uct (Tcbublc that the eiac number of the tart will ever be ascertained. Thin ought to hove been dowe, and we are surprised that it waa ne glected. The accident eecurced when the boat waa within some thirty or forty feet of the ahore. It Li laid that the en gineer maintained bia poit like a man, and until he waa nearly immersed in the water. The other officers were all at their proper places, at the time of the disaster. But the life preservers which were <>n board are con demned as utterly useless and unavailing for the purpose of saving life. Proper inquiry should be made into this matter. The boat is a total loss, with the water np to her hur ricane deck. Many of the passengers returned to this city in tho Fashion, and others would be sent on their destination without delay. Before the Fashion came along, the most of the passengers' baggage bad been rescued from the wreck. The boat belongs to the Louis ville anu St. Louis Packet Line, and is understood to have been insured for $18,000. IMmong the passengers who have returned to this city,, we have obtained the uames of Mr. Wellington Hart. of New York; Lieut. Chapman, P. 8. I>.; Br. Warne and ludy, of Nashville; Mr. Cole, of Philadelphia; Gen. L. H Swan, of Rochester, N. Y., and Mr. John Calvert, of St. Louis.

The number of deaths on the instant was about fifty-four, and the serious injuries not resulting In death, but for which the company were made liabllfwere probably "half a< many more. Only one suit was suffered to be prose cuted to judgment against tho company, and that arose from a disagreement as to the extent of injury.
