The foreign news brought by the Pacific and
Africa is important if true" By the former
arrival we learn the British Ministry has again
got into snarl. and has partially fallen to
pieces, Graham. Gladstone and Herbert hav-
ing resigned ostensisly on account of the pas
sage of Mr.. Roebuck's 5 motion for committee
to inquire into the misn,anagement of the war.
Rumor gives Lord Egin seat in the Cabinet
as member of the Board of Control. The
Roebuckites are fierce for the impeachment of
Lord Raglan.

scarcely worth while to speculate upon the
until we have confirmation Of
the fact. The death Of the emperor may be a
second ed; tion of the ''fall Of SebastOpOl,i' y
which occurred last September.

rain shower, tho wind suddenly yeered roend
to the north, and, says our correspondent, came

taking with it at that moment about three-fourth
Of the wire suspension bridge. Tho crash was
awful equal TO the laundering of heavy guns.
The anchors tlia. were attached to the bridge

The beautiful structure came down. Those an
chors OF the southwest corner, planted on The
hill back OF Col. Stevens residence, gave way
first. II was feared that the towers would fall,
but they stood nobly. 1t is impossible to tell
the amount Of damage, but it cannot be less
than seven thousand dollara It is perhaps
fortunate that the accident took place as it did,
although another storm of equal severity may
not occur for years 10 come II is certain we
never have had sucl an one bcfore-that Is,
since We have resided in Minnesota.

Dreadful TRAuEDY.-We learn from the
Mohawk (IIerkiner Coz Courier of the lst
inst, that boy named james Wallace, aged
II, was killed by his brother, only twelve years
old, in the town Of Ohio, in that county, on the
18th nit. a quarrel had occurred between
the two, growing out OF an attempt on the part
OF tho deceased to chasise twin brother of
the younger lad. The latter, by some means,
having obtained possession ola loaded pistol,
deliberately discharged its contents into the
head oftEe deceased. who fingered for few
hours and then expired in the greatest agony.
The mother of tho boys was present and wit
messed the dreadful ecene, bat was unable to
prevent the catastrophe. The father was al
sent. There has been no examination in the
case as we unders and, and the young fratri-
eide is yet at large.
