A TERRIBLE CALAMITY.-The New York
Stat Zeitung contains, among the news
brought by the Nashville, heartrending
tale from Dantzic, dated the 3lst of March
last, as follows
"The breaking up and floating down Of
the ice on the Vistula. which has so often
been the source of great damage to the sur
rounding lowlands, has this spring taken
place with such terrible violence as to sur
pass anything Of the kind within the last
@Thc strong dykes, constructed at an
immense cost along the banks Of the river
have been swept away i'll many places by
the infatuated element, and four hundred
square miles of the most fertile plains, the
best wheat-producing district in the world
are now covered by water and have the ap
pearance Of lake.
"Onc hundred human corpses had already
been picked up near single place (Tiegen

FAMINE IN NORTH GEoRGIA.-A cores
pondent of the Dalton Times draws dis
tressing picture of the starving condition
Of the poor people in that region. More
than one-half Of the people are without
corn and money. The cry is "corn, corn,
corn-do you know of any corn for sale ?"
The answer is" ! have travelled twenty miles
around every way, and can hear Of not a
bushel to be had, for love, charity or mon
ey. The poor man offers to work day
! for peck of corn to feed his wife and chill
dren on. He is turned off with an answer
my own family will have to suffer if sell
my corn.' Horses and mules are turned
out to perish Or live in the woods as best
they can; and husbandmcn that have farms
and no corn will not be able to cultivate
more land thah they can tend with hoe
