EXCITING SCENE ON THE OHIO R1vER.-The Gin.
cinnati Gazette of Saturday gives detailed ac-
count of ferry beat on the Falls with two hun
dred passengers on board, among whom were
Bishop Mcllvaine OF Ohio, and the Rev. DR.. Sehon'
of Cincinnati The boat had started to cross the
river with the number of passengers designated,
the most of whom were destined for Cincinnati
and the East and after getting a short distance
into ths river, 1t was caught in floating mass OF
ice and despite all exertions lodged on the
Falls. The Gazette says:
The boat grounded broadside to the current with
the ice breaking over her guards and piling up in
frightful against her, to the terror and con.
sternation of the two hundred human beings
crowded together on her deck. The ferry boat
was fully half mile from this shore, and three or
four hundred yards from the Indiana shore, with
rapid current and the river full of floating Ice. 1t
was soon rumored through the city that the boat
was wrecked on the rocks, and the lives of two
hundred persons, including many women and
children, most OF them citizens OF Louisville and
Cincinnati, were In imminent peril, and the
wharf was soon lined with hundreds of persons
all anxious to render assistance but none knowing
how it could be given.
As the vast masses of ice came laundering against
her side, roaring and crashing around the appa-
rently trail vessel, great pieces tuulbliug upon the
guards, 1t was not matter OF astonishment that
some CONSERVATION pervaded the throng of passen-
children, naturally timorous, had their worst ap-
prehensions of danger aroused. These fears were
farther heightened, when they had gathered togeth
in the csbn, by the proposal of the two clergy
men, Bishop McIlvaine, OF Ohio, and Rev DR.. Sc
hon. of this city, that prayer to God for the pre-
servation of the lives OF the passengers should be
offered up. Regarding this az an indication of ex-
treme peril and fearing that each blow given by the
large cakes of Ice would destroy the boat the pro-
position of the clergymen was only answered by
shrieks and lamentations. Prayerwas then offered
up-the agitated assemblage became in measure
subdued yet sobs and sighs were mingled with the
intercessions, and the most solemn scene was pre-
scnted.
At this juncture several life boats were procur-
ed, and having been manned by exper fenced and
daring persons, they were pushed over theice into
the stream filled with huge masses of ice. These
men at the imminent risk of their ives finally sue
ceeded In rescuIng from their perilous situation
every man, woman and child, and landing them
high and dry upon the shore. Money was tender
ed the rescuers by Bishop McIlvaine and others In
part payment for their services, aud was refused,
although one of them, Captain. had purchased
with his own funds the life boat he had used.

SNow.-The papors bring US accounts of great
snow storms In the North aud Northwest In the
vicinity of Chicago the railroads are obstructed,
and travellers completely walled in by the snow.
The Chicago Democrat, of Jan. 90, says:
On the Galena road, the train from Aurora ar.
rived within five miles of the Wells street depot
Thursday night. when the snow mpeded Its pro.
gress so that the engine froze Up. The passengers
remained in the cars all night. and in the morning
the cond ductor procured sleghs in the neigborhood
and brought them to the city. An engine was sent
out during the night to meet this train and bring il
In; but before reaching it the pumps froze up
Other engines were sent out during the night, and
successfully froze up until four were thus disabled
in the distance OF four miles During the day
they and the train were reached and brought into
the depot, when three fresh locomotives coupled
together and provided with snow plows, with cai
containing forty men with shoves were sent tc
clear the track 1t is more difficult to get through
the drifts than 1t was Monday. Every effort
will be made to open communication, but 1t is i'm
possible to say when it will be effected; and sc
long as the snow is SO dry the first wind will fill the
cuts up as bad as ever.
The Democrat of Jan. 80 says:
Old New England residents say they never saw
anything like it. The oldest Inhabitants of these
parts aver it has never been equalled by anything
seen in the West before. 1t Is no doubt the great
est snow storm ever experienced In the Northwest
of the Union for aught we know.

With no commercial revulsion in either
country to produce distrust; no want of conf
dence in the governments to induce boarding
among the people, the Times is satisfied that
only an ninconsiderable portion of the vast sum
unaccounted for remains in circulation in
France and England The conviction, it re-
marks, is almost irresistible that the War, by
actual expenditures in the East, and by the
advantages in trade and money exchanges
which it has indirectly afforded to Germany
and other neutral States on the continent, has
cost France and England about tsco hundred
millions Of gold.
The bankers and business men of Austria
and Prussia have been accumulating enor-
nous sums by the neutrality of their respec-
tive governments. Neutrality is a profita.
BILE business, and they are great fools if they
give it up.
