counts Of the examination of General
Lopez, and his being held 10 bail in the
sum Of $4,000, from day to day, to ap-
pear before United States Commissioner
for trial After being bound over, the
crowd followed him to the St LOUIS Ho-
tel. and after repeated cheering, he came
forward and made speech, IN which he
gave the people to understand that he
might be branded as pirate and rob-
Der for espousing the cause of freedom,
but he was willing to bear the opproblum
and that It should not diihear,en him or
make him desert his cause. He was al.
50 serenaded the same night, the band be-
ing accompanied by large concourse Of
citizens; who continued cheering until
the General again came forward and adj
dressed them.

DyWe observe that the Locofoco
Central Committee has called primary
meetings, preparatory to nominating can
dldates Tor The Convention. Some Of the
leaders Of that patty protested to be in
favor of running union ticket, being
opposed, as they SAID, TO making party
question Of Reform. They being the
dominant party in thus county, propo-
si'on for union ticket could properly
come from them alone. They have not
made il - speaking for ourself, we never
wished they should. Well the wings will

nominate ticket, and it may be, elect it.

BUFFALO, June II.

BUFFALO, June 4.
Terrible disaster on Lake Erle-Rurning
OF the Steamer Griffith-Two or Three
Hundred Lives Lost.
The fine steamer Griffith, Capt. Roby,
while on her wav to the Lake, took fire
about five o'clock this morning, when
about twenty miles below Cleveland, and
was burned to the wate's edge.
The mate, who yam ashore from the
burning boat for help, has reached Cleve-
lard, and reports that only thirty Of those
ON board were saved, aud these had to
swim ashore, there being no other vessel
near to render assistance.
Captain Roby, his vile and child, are
amongs, the lost.
The last report, at 9 O'Clock this even
ing, sets down the whole number OF lives
lost at two hundred and sixty. II IS stat
ed that Mr.. Franklin Heath, his vile and
four children, are among the lost. Mr..
Heath was formerly resident OF Buffalo:
from whence he removed to New York.
Mir. Horace Palmer, an operator in
Speeds telegraph office, samong the lost.
The scenes on the burning wreck are
described as having been agonizlng in the
extreme.
1t is impossible as yet to ascertain the
cause OF this disaster, oi to give any fur
ther particulars. Itls the greatest calam.
ity that has occurred on Lake Erie since
the destruction by FIRE OF the steamer Erie
eJme years ago.

Look at 1t and then ACT.

We respectfully direct the attention Of
the Whiss OF the County to the following
extracts from tn" Lancaster Union, IN The
course of 3 brief address to its readers an
notIncins the recent improvements IN that
pappr, urging the Importance OF more
extended circulation of Wing papers, in
order 10 Increase their usefulness, and says
with much truth.
ITO etiec; tins the leading and Influential
Wings Of each District should take the
time and trouble TO 60 around amongst the
people aud urge and impress upon them
the importance and duty of taking Wing
paper. II they do rot fully succeed upon
one trial in getting up list, they should
try again and again until they do succeed.
This Is the way to do it. They should
not put It upon the poor and uninfuential
to do this. The leaders should do it.
II is their duty to DO it. When the re-
wards and honors Of party turn up, they
are the men to get them, and they should
Be willing 10 share the labors as well as
the honors Of success. II this were done
honestly and faithfully, the Wing party
and ITS principles would grow in proper
ton to the extension and circulation Of the
papers"
Every word Of this is true. 1t is appli-
cable to every county in the State, and II
the Wings generally would act up to it,
j. would not only invlgorate and render
prosperous the whole " hig press OF the
State, but would place the principles OF
the party in majority that NO honest ef-
fort of Locofocoism, If there can be such
thing, could overcome. The Union fur
ther very justly remarks:
"SuccrssIul efforts are frequently made
~ young men in our county, merely be-
cause they are personally solicited, to
raise clubs tor nsutra! and political papers
from abroad, cheap campaign papers, or
others got up for mere temporary purpo-
ses. Of this we shall not complain; but
we would remind such that like effort
for their home Wing paper, that is always
at hand to sustain the cause IN the county
through good and through evil report; in
seasons Of despair as we'll as IN time of
hope, prosperity and promised triumph,
would be equally successful. We would
remind them that 1t IS the home paper
that is to be relied on in all local elections
that it is exps cted to sustain the cause
when We have not the benefit of great ma
tional questions, with their absorbing in
terests to arouse us,--and that its efficacy
at such times may be greatly increased by |
their corporation and aid In extending
its sphere of usefulness.
In every District and neighborhood
there are those who profess an attachment,
to the wing cause, and others who care
little about politics, who could be induced
10 subscribe for whig paper if proper eff
forts were made by active wings in their
nelghborhood. We ask these wings to
make an effort in our behalf, and extend
our subscription list, and swell 1t to what
it ought to be in this great Gibralter of
wing principles.
