Additional Particulars of the Northern
Indiana.

Buffalo, July lS.-We have~the following
additional particulars of the burning of the
Northern Indiana go The fire originated in
the wood work around one of the ctimnies,
and spread very rapidly. The vessel burned
to the waters edge in fifty minutes. Mr. Wet
more, the first mate, comma nding in the alb
sence of Capt. Pheat, exerted himself to the
utmost to save the passengers, and was the
last one to leave the burning vessel. He stood
at his post, throwing doors, life preservers,
STOOLS, &C., to the passengers, who, wild with
excitement, were leaping overheard i'll masses.
The weather was pleasant and a dead calm
prevailed, and Mr.. Wetmore says, could he
have controlled the recklessness of the pas
sengers in jumping overheard, not one of
II EN- would have been lost.
During the excitement, some of the fremen
and deck hands launched small boat into
which several of them jumped, but it was
drawn under the wheels of the steamer, and
they were lost.
The steamer was towed on shore by the
propeller Republic, and now lies in Pigeon
Bay, above Point au Peee, in'ten feet of wa
ter. Her hull is said to be uninjured, and
with favorable weather she can be towed into
port.
With regard to the number lost, the reports
are conflicting. and correct estimate cannot
be made, as the trip sheets were destroyed.
Mr.. Marsh, the clerk of the vessel, arrived
at Cleveland this morning. He says that not
less than fifty have been lost The propeller
Republic, supposed to have saved number of
the passengers, arrived at Detroit, this morn
ing, with several of the crew, but with only
two ofthe passengers. We have no names of
the persons known or supposed to be lost.
DETROIT, July lS.-The Number of passen-
gers saved from the Northern Indiana, brought
up by the Mississippi, is l42. The following
persons are known to be lost Newell Turn
er and Ariel Gray of Rome, Me. Michael
Burke and Thomas Earle, fremen, of Buffa.
10; Mrs Eliza Blanchard of Augusta, Me- !;
Henry Minis and child of FULLY, N. Y. Au-
gustipe Fortwale of Buffalo; George Law
son of Brockport, N. Y. Mrs. Mary Lada-
yard Of England Mrs. Mary Ackayds, her
father, mother, husband and two children of

Cary and child of Greenburg, Wis. Miss
Jennings of Waverly. Illinois. Hezekiah
Thomas of Buffalo; Nicholas Cummerford Of
Rochester a lady and child of Louisville +;
three coal beavers, dock hand anda child
1t is feared that more than these have been
lost. The captain of the Republic thinks none
were saved except those on board of his own
vessel and the Mississippi.
The citizens of Detroit held meeting July
18th, and raised $500 for the sufferers, and
several more hundred was raised for them the
next day. Every attention is paid to them

EFFECT OF CoLcR UPON HEALTH From
several years observations in rooms of various
sizes, used as manufacturing rooms and oc-
cuDied by females for 2 hours per day, found
that the workers who occupied those rooms
which had large windows with large panes of
glass in the four sides of the room, so that the
suns rays penetrated through the room dur
ing the whole day, were much more healthy
than the workers who occupied rooms lighted
from one side only, or rooms lighted through
very small panes of glass. observed another
very singular fact, viz, that the workers who
occupied one room were very cheerful and
healthy, while the occupiers of another SIM
liar room, who were employed on the same
kind of work, were all inclined to melancholy,
and complained of pains in the forehead and
eyes, and were often i'll and unable to work,
Upon examining the rooms in question, l
found they were both equally well ventilated
and lighted. l could not discover anything
about the drainage of the premises that could
affect the one room more than the other but
observed that the room occupied by the
cheerful workers was wholly whitewashed,
and the room occupied by the melancholy
workers was covered with yellow ochre. l
had the yellow ochre oil washed off, and the
walls and ceiling whitewashed. The workers
ever after felt more cheerful and healthy. A f.
ter making this discovery, l extended my OBJ
servations to a number of smaller rooms and
garrets, and found, without exception, that
the occupiers of the white rooms were much
more healthy than the occupiers of the yellow
or buff colored rooms T; and. wherever sue
ceeded in inducing the occupers of the yell
low rooms to change the color for whitewash,
l always found a corresponding Improvement
in the health and spirits of the occupiers.-,
From these observations, l would respectfully
drop hint te the authorities of schools, asy-
lupe, and hospitals, to escht W yellow, buff,
or anything approaching to yellow, as the
grand color of the interior oil their buildings.
Things not generally appreciated about a
house 81. The benefit OF thorough drainage
and water supply. 2. The benefit of good
heating and ventilation. 8. he benefits of

The American council at Chicopee
Falls refuses to send delegates to the state con-

apprehending that it is to be another Fremont
gathering. At Chicopee the council elected
nine delegates, with full instructions to vote
for no men for candidates who DO not go for
Fillmore.
All the Presidential candidates furnish
proof OF Roman Catholic proclivities. Col.
Fremont was married by German Catholic
Priest. Mr.. Fillmores daughter was educat-

Ths success of the Statesman in hunting up
the evidence OF Mr.. Fremonts he,erodoxy has
induced several distinguished antiqusrians to de.
vote considerable time and labor to an investiga
ton OF Mr. Fillmore's antecedents, and one Of
them writes to the New York Tribune, the fol
lowing as the result Of his researches and explo.
rations, from which it will be seen that that dis.
tinguished American, If not Catholic, has had
very narrog escape from the communicating in.
huences Of the Mother Church. We suppose
that we shall have the most positive evidence in
day or two, that Mr.. Buchanan is rigid Catho.
lie, and that the sole and only reason that can
be addncedfor his life single blessedness arises
from she fact that in early manhood he took upon
himself the VOWS Of celbacy peculiar to the order
Of Jesuits throughout the world. From these
astounding developments it is easy to see the
power which the Church or Rome is exerting by
its secret intrigues upon the future destnies Of
