30 TO Is LIVES LOST

The Collingwood steamer Niagara, which
left Chicago on Monday Of last week, took
FIRE within about FIVE miles Of Port Wash.
inrton, Wis. but so rapid were the flames
and 10 great was the CONSERVATION Of the
passengers, that n great proportion OF the
people on board lost their lives before the
means Of rescue could be extended. The
steamer Traveller was about ten miles dis
tant, and reached the scene of the disaster
in season to take of some thirty of those
who were clinging to the boat and floating
furniture. The Illinois picked up about as
many more. Many others escaped by means
Of life-preservers and sundry articles that
were within their reach, but who or how
many is uncertain, and it was impossible at
last accounts to make out list Of the lost,
though the number is thought to be from 80
to IS. How the fire took, is unknown but
the first knowledge Of it that was conveyed
to the officers or passengers, was by the burst
ing out Of the flames, forward of the wheel,
accompanied by a cloud Of smoke which
completely enyeloped the boat.
BucnANErR Flz2I Es.--Thc great Buchaneer
meeting at Springfield, HIS, which was re-
ported by the telegraph to have been attend
ed by some 10000, was really attended by
less than 1900, including boys, BY actual
count; and, excluding the boys, there were
nj - a. n
represented as having taken an active part
in il. 1t is untrue. But very few Germans
were present and, to the astonishment of
every body, the proportion Of the Irish pop
ulation present was very small.
But the greatest fzzlc we have had to re-
cord lately, was that at Philadelphia. Ex-
traordinary preparations were made for an
immense meeting. Orators from all quar-
tiers of the country were announced, and the
most catering inducements held out to per-
suude people 10 attend. And yet, in that
great city, the commercial capital Of Blu
chanan's own State, the most impartial nc
counts state that not over 1000 people were
convened in Independence Square to counte-
nance the proceedings or indulge their curl
osity. These things are significant, and well
may they encourage Republicans. OF the
Philadelphia meeting, the correspondent Of
the Ny. Tribune writes;
IL is impossible to describe the astonish-
ment Of both parties-the delight of the
Republicans, the dismay Of the Buchanecr,
when the meeting Was actually convened
when the county delegations, and even the
( New Workers had arrived, and there was not
more than three thousand people, Of all
ages, sexes aud colors, in the square TO hea,
Mr. Howell Cobb "preach disunion'' and
abuse "the greasy mechanics Of the North y
The effect has been immense. Candid Blu.
CHANGERS admits to have been failure, ant
to have seriously damaged the party. Th,
Republicans are exultan.; and no wonder
The great demonstrations has shown be
yond question that Eastern Pennsylvania ha
undergone marvellous change. Many meu
IN the Buchanan RANKS say now, "Better L

withdrawing Buchanan and substituting Alr
