curiosity had drawn thither made the display of

While were upon the ground the body Of Il lady
was found, floating in the middle of the river and was
towed ashore behind boat, by a rope around her
waist. She was dressed in black silk dress, and
diamond ring glittercd upon her darkened finger Her

had been young old, fair, The contrary beautiful

to gaze upon this distressing spectacle, man brought

The New York Herald, of the 10th inst,
uives tho following birds.pve view and pussinq

The New York Herald, of the 10th inst,
gives the following birds-eye view and passing
comments on the subject Of the fisheries:
"The affair seems 10 assume a more serious
aspect every day; and, unless great deal of
caution is exercised by both governments the
nnaTc VI t1le o.J me part of our provn-
cial neigbbors, may really terminate moro ser-
ously than was at first apprehended. If the
statement of the passengers and crew of the
American schooner Lion, of Brookhavcn, which
was seized off Prince Edward Island, is correct,
the British are certainly carrying things rather
beyond their proper limits. Those on board the
Lion at the time state that she was becalmed,
and fully three miles from the land. This must
be inquired into with promptness, and if the
story is correct, she must be released. According
TO a despatch from Boston, another schooner,
the Florida, was captured and taken into Char.
loltetown, on the 5th inst BY the way, this
subject will be the order of The day in the Uni
ted States Senate next Thursday, when it is TO
be hoped that the whole matter will undergo a
full, Careful, and impartial examination. Mr..
Soule, of Louisiana, it is whispered is preparing
n speech, in shith he will review the recent pro-
cecdngs of Mr.. Webster in manner that will
not be very ilattering to the gigantic capacity Of

TRADE BETWEEN Brazil AND UNITED STATES.
"A letter from Rio Janeiro, in the New York
Times. draws attention to the inequality of the
trade between Brazil and the United States.
Our country takes of Brazil one-half of its inn;
mcnse coffee crops, costing millions of dollars,
all of which enters our ports free of duty. Bra-
iii, however, imposes duty Of 30per cent upon
the flour from the United States, 45 per cent on
our furniture, $50 per cent Oh carriages, and
admits nothing under 80 per cent. Mr. Schenek,
our present minister to that country, has cndea-
vo.ed to get these restrictions on American COM
merce removed, but so far without effect. The
correspondent Of the Times proposes as RENE.
dy, to restore equality Of trade, that the United
States should put duty upon coffee. rs

DESTRUCTION OF THE cHERAw BRIDGE.

We published in our issue of yesterday Il brief
account by telegraph of the destruction of the
Bridge mt Chcmw in this Stale. We find the
suljoined particulars in the Chcraw Gazette Of
the 10Th inst.
Son Friday evening last, about o'clock, our
citizens were startled BY tremendous crashing
of iimbcrs. as if some large supcrstruclure was
being swept frcm its foundations, by the hurri-
canes resstlcss blast. Upon inquiry, it was
asccriainrd to have been caused by the falling of
large portion, say two-thirds, of the bridge
across The river.
"This bridge was erected in 1898, upon
Towncs' plan. In length, it was near 500 feet,
and rested upon two wooden piers, ascending
from the bed Of the river, and upon wooden
abu'mrnts upon the banks. The piers were
built of black cyprus timber, and have stood
since The bridge was built. Their renewal was
deemed necessary BY the company ut that time,
and wOrkmen were engaged in that operation.
and had succeeded in replacing abont half the
timbcrs in tile one on the Eastern side of the
river. 1t is evident that the giving away Of the
pier undergoing repairs was the cause of the
disaster.
1.-The strength of the pier standing is beyond
conception. More than 300 feet of the bridge
had 10 other support but that ard the abulment
on the east bauk of The river, the weight Of
which was 50 great as TO break all the lrestle
limbcrs short off near it, leaving it and about a
third of the bridge at the west end standing
unnurcd.
1.-The falling of the bridge will seriously in
convenience the travelling public; but We hope
for a very short time. Indeed, arrangements are
already made for putting passengers over the
river"
