HE The Civilian man don't

ES- The Civilian man don't seem to
like the idea of the business men of his
town sending else where to have their Job
" ork done, and rather threatens if any
more of such business is done, he'll ex-
pose them. Better not, Mr.. Civilian, OF
they might retaliate by showing up some
of the miserable typographical abortions
which emanatc from your office, and by
proving TO the satisfaction of the commu-
nifty that we really do do work fifty per
cent better than You are able, throw into
our hands still greater portion than We
now receive. This would not suit you,
we know, so you had better let the gen
tlemen alone.

That is right drive all negroes out of
the State, but do not stop there take
from them all the little property they
own. They do not belong to the human
family, and have no rights that white men
are bound TO respect. This is the rule
adopted by Judge fancy and the Border
Rufiians, and why should not cities that
give from one to three hundred proslav-
cry majority at every election, live up
strictly to their prolessions.-Houkeye.

the work of widening the bridge across
the Wapsipinicon at this place is pro
crossing rapidly towards completion
This is a most desirable improvement
as heretofore the bridge has been too mar

following information
The brig Marine was lying nearly mile
OH, and by the time the two boats reached
her, II became evident that the ship must go
down before they could get back.
All hands then seized pieces Of spars.
chairs and life preaervers, while others
rushed below TO procure The treasure. Now

passengers jumped OF at each lurch. Those
who Jumped Of at the first asd second
lurches swan of some distance, but the
great mass remained on deck until the vessel
went down, which was minute or two
afterwards. We were all drawn under the
surface at least twenty feet, and when we
rose were nearly stilod.
Tho rapidity with which was drawn
down tore the spar from my hands and the
liic-prcscrvcrs from my body; and when
reached the surface my clothing was almost
all stripped oil. |, however, met friend
who had two life prscrvcrs, and who gave
me one aud We also seized ON pieces Of the
wreck, which helped 10 sustain us.
About 400 Of the passengers were strug.
Cling about. most Of them having lost their
liiceprescryers, and others scizing the pieces
Of wreck which came up with us.
The captain had cut away the upper
works Of the vessel, so that when the hull
sunk they would float of; but they were all
dragged down, and came up in fragments.
Many persons were killed. drowned and
stunned by being struck by pieces of the
wreck. while the pieces, to others, were the
ultimate means OF safety.
An occasional fash Of lightning showed
to each other sea covered with struggling
forms. Each strove to encourage bis friend
with hopes which he scarce felt himself
Al once We were all together in mass,
but soon the waves separated us: and II,
successive flashes of lightning we discovered
that We were being scattered over wide
area, and soon found ourselves alone on the
bouDdltss ocean.
