The Gale on Niagara River.

The gale on Sunday was more violent at
the lower end of the Lake than in this re-
gion. The volume of water driven over
the Falls, carrying logs, timbers and drift
wood of every description, was frightful.-
The suspension bridge was deemed in great
danger and the toll gates deserted. 1t,
however, escaped unscathed. The tower
or old pagoda at Lundy's Lane, which
stood nearest the battle ground, and which
now makes our knees ache to think of, was
overthrown. A correspondent of the N.
Y. Herald says: The intense rocking
started the inmates from the wooden tene-
ment at the base, and scarcely had they
made good their escape, when with tre-
mendous crash, the entire tower, of nearly
two hundred feet, measured its length upon
the frozen ground, scattering its upper por-
ton into thousand fragments; but, for
tunately, no lives were lost, as it fell to the
westward, in the open fields. Had it fall
en- in any other direction, it must have
crushed in several dwellings, and destroyed
many lives. Within its length, and but a
few rods from its line of fall, congrega-
ton were assembled in the Methodist
Church, and their escape is the cause Of
great congratulation. Cler. Her.

The Buchanan papersin the

North deny that their party are in favor of re-o-
pening of the Slave Trade. Very likely this
is true ofa majority of the Northern portion of
them when at home, but when they get to WASH

do as the South dictates. Do you want any proof
of thisf The question recently came up in Con-
gress, fairly and squarely put in resolution Of
fered by Mr.. Etheridge, of the House, in which
the revival of the Slave Trade was denounced as
barbarous and inhuman, when more than one
half Of the Buchanan party poted against the reso-
haion. We should like to have any Locofoco
Editor deny this. -Four years hence, if Mr.. Bu-

sme as having taken place in the House on
Tuesday last as follows:
Mr. Grows motion to refer Mr.. Whit.
fields certificate and the whole subject Of
the Kansas delegate to the Committee on
Elections was quite surprise to the
South.
Mr.. Houston of Alabama remarked in
his seat: This has been fixed up between
Banks and Grow"
After the question on the motion TO re
fer had been decided, the Speaker said that
he desired to say, with the consent of the
House, that the charge made by the gen.
tleman from Alabama was without found
alton in truth: that he had held no CONVEX
sation with the gentlman from Pennsylva-
mia on the subject. a1.f fa5.
Mr.. Houston of Alabama, excited-"D
the speaker mean me!
Speaker, firmly-~The Chair understood
the gentleman from Alabama to bring
such charge"
Mr.. Houston said he had good reason to
think so.
Mr.. Grow of Pennsylvainia-"I call the
gentleman to order" Great excitement.
Mr.. Houston-"I am as much in order
as the Speaker was"
Mr.. Grow-"I wish to correct the gen.
tleman in q matter of fact"
Mr.. Houston n-"You don't know facts
enough to correct me-"
AT this moment the excitement became
SO intense that it was almost impossible to
hear word spoken. At last the speaker,
who remained calm and cool throughout
the storm, said he would like to make an
explanation with the consent of the House,
but objections were abruptly made by sew
eral. Mr.. Orr Of South Carolina demand
ed the question, and the House went on
again as if nothing had happened.
AT the close of the Whitfield case an at
tempt was made to spring the previous
question, ON the motion to print President
Pierce's Message, but it was defeated. The
debate on the Message is still in order.

The Gale Of Sunday.

The blow of Sunday was furious in Gin
cinnati, blowing, We see by the Gazette, a
steamer from its moorings, and throwing
down the walls ofla. factory, which in then
fall buried number of shanties and seri-
ously injuring the inmates.
At Pittsburg, the Journal speaks of the
gale as the fiercest they ever heard howl
and shrek. The planks of the Mononga-
hela bridge were blown loose so as to rem
der it impossible.
The Gazette says:
The Cumberland Presbyterian Church,
Rev. Mr.. Simpson, East common, Allegheny
was the scene of much excitement. Du-
ring the morning service several windows
blown In terrifying the congregation to a
great degree, and they fled in alarm. Sew
eral of the congregation were hurt BY the
sash, and nearly all were bruised more OF
less in endeavoring to escape. The Pastor
was slightly hurt.
The congregation of another church left
their house through fear that it would be
blown down, and the roof of the African
church was blown off. A large number Of
buildings were damaged.
In Buffalo, the Republic speaks of Sun
DAYS weather as the vilest of the season.
A mixture of snow and rain over head, ma
king complete slush under foot. One of
the handsome stained windows in ST. Paul's
church was blown in, and the congregation
of Lafayette street Church was frightened
by the falling of the spire which broke
through the roof The water rose on the
flats so as to drive the poor from their
houses. Some sixty families, including
many children, were sheltered in the school
house. The water in the harbor has not
been so high since 1874. The warehouse
of Wilks & Co. is in ruins. The Niagara
Falls road for half mile is washed away,
and passengers now take the cars at Black

The Commercial says that the plank
side walk on the Terrace, six feet wide, of
three inch plank, spiked down to cross
pieces was lifted high enough to sweep the
lantern from the lamp-post. The sea at
the mouth of the Creek dashed over the
beacon light. A window of church in
Maple street was blown in, injuring some
what the preacher. The Commercial
says:
We cannot close our chapter ofaccidents
without brief allusion to the utter failure
of all whalebone structures during this
blow. Umbrellas went wrong side out in
a most provoking manner, and so did GRIN
oline. Some of the ladies on the street so
far as information extends went up (like
angels as they are,) but some of them pre-
sented the appearance of an umbrella turn
ed wrong side out, wiM two stout handles
instead of the usual slender stick.

WASHINGTON. Dec. IL


In the Senate to-day, Mr.. Mason pre-
sented the petition of Mr.. Wheeler, asking
to be reimbursed for money advanced
American citizens in distress in Nicaragua,
and who on the way from California to
New York were fired on by the natives of
Virgin Bay, some being killed and others
robbed. They were brought to the U. 8.
Legation, hungry, wounded, and almost
dead. Should this petition be granted,
similar claims to an enormous amount are
ready for presentation.
Com. Jones also petitioned to be refund
ed the amount deducted from his pay by
action of the court martial several years
ago.
The President to-day sent in the nomi-
nation of J. c. Harrison, of KY, for Judge
of Kansas, vice Lecompte, removed.
Gen. Houston will soon move an inquiry
into the expediency of suspending for two
years the duty on sugar and molasses.
Mr.. Dubois, the Dutch Minister to our
Government, will soon return here, having
been accredited to Denmark on an inferior
mission. This is presumed to have been
in consequence of his government disap-
proving his course when called upon to tes-
tify in the Herbert trial. A new Minister
will be here in few weeks as successor to
NJ. Dubois.
There will be an effort made this winter
to impeach Judge of the District Court
of the U. s., and the charges, if substan-
tiated, will cause profound sensation
throughout the country. The memorials,
believe are already before the proper COM
mittee.
There is rumor that the slavery agita-
ton will to be again thrust upon Congress
in connection with bill for the admission
of Utah as State.

SOUTHERN CoxvESrIox.-Someo of the Southern
mad caps have been amusing themselves lately
by holding another Southern Convention-in
which was ehatted over the sorrows of the past,
and the prospects for the future. A number OF
resolutions were proposed and adopted, which
will never amount to anything more than wind
work, because the South has neither the capital
nor the enterprise, TO enable it to compete with
the North either in the getting up of steamships,
manufacturing. or any heavy commercial mat
ter. Had they adopted resolutions, declaring
that it was the sense of the Convention that it
should hereafter be warm in January and cool
in August, and that there should be no more yell
low fever in New Orleans, and no more asses in
Charleston, they would not then have been gull
ty of any Inconsistency, and these latter resolu-
tons would have harmonized admirably with
the former. -a5 .f

Mob Spirit in Ohio.

Some days since we recorded the horrible
crime of negro in Adams county in this State,
and his summary execution by mob. Since
then two prisoners have been tried and convict
ed in the same county, one for killing his ia
ther-in-law, the other an cid man and his wife.
One was sentenced TO the penitentiary for four
years and the other for life. A mob collected
at once, and determined to take both prisoners
from the officers and hang them by the law Of
Judge Lynch The Sheriff got wind of it and
succeeded in running his prisoners over
into Kentucky, and lodging them in the Ma
rysville Jail, to remain there until taken out
by the proper officers and sent to the Ohio
Penitentiary. The hlarysville Erpress also
states that in Mansehester, after hanging the
negro, the mob ordered every colored person
out of town, and threatened to hang them il
they ever retured. Adams county should be
set off to Kentuckv.-Clere. Her.

LOUISVILLE, Dec. Is.

The Courier says that on Saturday
morning Rev. VIM. Anderson, preacher
of the Methodist Church of the North,
and chief of the Abolitionists of Madison,
Indiana. was captured while on board the
steamer Telegraph.
His carpet bag was found to be filed
with incendiary documents, proving that
he had been engaged in running off slaves
from the neighborhood of Carrollton. Tho
papers found in his possession also impli-
cate many distinguished Northerners.
He was taken yesterday by the steamer
Superior to Carrollton, where 5000 had
been offered for his capture and arrest.
