THE BUILEN BRlDGE.-We were requested
last week TO state that this bridge across Fox
River has been repaired, and is ready to accom-
modate travellers, but we inadvertently omitted
it. the work Of repairing has been done under
toI; sufficient guaranty that it has been well
done.
DoGMATIcAL.-G Quite q scene occurred on
Main street the other day, all occasioned by a
couple of dogs. One dog was large and fierce,
and the other was small and was great fight
er The large dog every time he saw his weak.
err neighbor come quietly along the street, with
his master, would pitch upon him and give him
a whipping, which naturally incensed his mas
ter, who finally informed the big dogs master
that if he allowed any further assaults of the kind
he would shoot his dog. Well, the very mex.
time he had occasion to pass, the large dog recll
less of consequences, pitched on again. Good as
his word, dog No. 2's master procured a revolver
pursued the offender into his masters shop, and
fired at him, but missed bis mark. The dog ran
up stairs into the living room and under the bed
and his foe, on slaughter madly bent followed
him and recklessly discharged four more shots
but without effect on the dog, and fortunately
without serious injury to the inmates. His am
muntion all expended, he was forced to foregc
his revenge for that time. Whether the pugna
cious dog will remember the lesson, and restrain
his tyrannical propensities, remains to be seen

SEVERE SToRM.-Last week gave us two OF
the hottest DAYS of the season. Wednesday and
Thursday the Thermometer ranged from 80 to 20
in the shade On Friday it was cooer,so much so
as to render heavy clothing comfortable, and on
Saturday the wind had got around into the north
east, and the weather-wise prognosticated
storm. On Sunday morning northeaster had
fairly set in, The wind was blowing stout
Gale. and the rain was falling in sheets. heavy
sea was rolling in. and washing wood, lumber.
and r. r. Ties from the harbor dock. Five
schooners came in during the night, and were
lying in the harbor.
The Kenosha Pier Co.'S steam pile driver
which was on some uncovered bentS at the outer
end of their new pier. was thrown into the Lake.
by the sea knocking down one of the bents'
about noon. This was the most serious damage
of the storm here. 1t is thought that it cen be
raised without material damage to the machin-
cry.
The bank was washed away near the Lumber
Yard of Messrs Durkee, Truesdeil u Co, to
such an extent that enc or two piles OF lumber
were undermined and pitched into the Lake
The lumber has been mostly recovered, we be-
lieve.
The rain continued to fall abundantly untI
towards evening when it held up, and the wind
began to abate We expected to hear accounts
of wrecks but as yet there seems to have been
none along this coast.
The growing crops have been badly beaten
down in this vicinity and wheat that vas out
had good soaking, but we think no serious
damage has been done to the agricultural inter
Aets.

TERRIBLE SHIPwRECK-FIFTY-
Persons DRowNED.-The New York
Tribune Of Wednesday states:
On the LIST of August telegraph dis
patch was received in this city, via Bos-
ton, stating that on the 21st Of July, the
bark Monasco, Capt. Daily Of Warren,
Me-, was totally lost on the coast of
BURN, Newfoundland, while on her way
from Gottenburg to this port On Mon
day evening last, the survivors, minus
the captain and his wife, arrived in this
city from st. Pierre, Newfoundland, on
the French brig Louis Gillies We
have seen a portion of them, and learn
that the ship left Gottenburg for New
York on the 18th of June, with sixty
one Swedish passengers and a crew of
twelve persons. On the night Of the
2lst of July the bark ran upon a high
rock on Corbin Head, Newfoundland,
and soon after went down, head fore
most.
BY this disaster fifty-four Swedish
passengers persisted 1t would appear
however, from the facts which have tran
spired, that this dreadful loss of life was
mainly attributable to the cowardice and
mcapacity Of the captain. Had Capt.
Daley possessed ordinary discretion and
selfcontrol, few, if any ofhis passengers
would have been lost But, instead of
manfully standing by his ship, he was
the first to set an example of pusillanim-
ty which is truly painful to contemplate.
At the first alarm, he rushed with his
wife to he>boat, and stuck by it to the
last, as though it were his only hope.

From letter in the Sacramento Union dated
Placeryille, July IA. we copy the following;
Mr.. Wilkins, who came passenger. is direct
from Salt Lake, where he has been residing for
nne months, having had to fee with his family
to California.
The Destroying Angels are busiy engaged at
their hellish work, numbering and robbing those
who are apostates.
Wilkins and party are composed of twenty six
persons, eight of whom are women. After leav-
ing Salt Lake. they were arrested by large
body OF Mormops, and taken back on charge Of
horse stealing. As no evidence even for Nor
mon court, was offered against them, they were
discharged, at the request Of one Mesick, who
knew three of them in San Francisco-he being
the clerk of the Court. After that they were
hunted like wolves, night and day, until they
reached Goose Creek Mountains, over one humid
red mil es from Salt Lake, where the Mormons
made charge on them AND killed six of their
animals.
One half of the population would leave, and
will do so, if the Government sends sufficient

The Missouri Election.

The result of the late election In Missouri, is
not vet definitely decided. The friends OF Ma
Tor Rollins, the emancipation candidate, claim
that he is elected by a respectable majority, but
are fearful that the Democracy will resort to
fraud upon the returns, to secure the final
trinmph of its candidate. We all know that
democracy OF the present day does not stop at
slight obstacles wheL it can secure a triumph
over the people by resort to mere fraudulent
election returns. Witness the frauds in this
State two years ago, the frauds III Philadelphia
last fall, and in Kansas passim, and in Minneso
ia this summer. The St. Louis Democrat says:
ave stated on yesterday that unless frauds
were porpetrated, the election of Major Rollins
was fred fact We reiterate the same to-day;
but we regret to add that frauds are being perpe-
trated. Our adyices from the City of Jefferson
are TO the affeo; that already the game Of amen
ded reiurns has been begun. Ihps the County
of Polk has been certified TO the Secretary of
State as one majority for Stewart, and so recor.
ded; bat now Col Aooek sends up an amend
ed return, giving Stewart ttcO hundred and thirty
one majority. We are further advised that the
Nullfers in their depredations have sent out
runners to meet the messengers bearing the re-
turns of the remaing counties, with Instructions
to alter the figures to suit the necessities of the
case. This fact would seem to already transpir-
ed in regard to Adair anG slaries, WHICH show
figures that cannot be accounted for on any 9TH.
er ground. If the fraul has been thus begun,
where shall it end? The villainy that was perpe-
trated at the last session, where Hancock Jack.
son was declared Lieutenant Governor, was only
consumated by the fraudulent returns from Polk
county, and now we have the same man in the
same county, moving in behalf of like fraud.

SOMETHING NEw.-An invention rival
ing in ingenuity Phenix's ''Hen Persua-

has just been put on exhibition at win
dow in Broadway, New York, which
attracts a curious crowd. 1t consists of
a rolling cylinder set in the side of box,
which (the box) is surmounted By a wire
open-work cupola. The cylinder is COW
cred with treacle, and crowds ofvagrant
flies light down upon it. There they be-
come so completely absorbed in the en-
trancing sweets they are feeding upon
that they fail to observe the gentle,
treacherous, revolving motion Of the
cylinder, until too late, they are carried
inside Of the fatal box, are scraped off
by some unseen diabolical mechanism,
rise up into the wire dome, and buzz
beautifully. 1t is scarcely necessary to
remark that once imprisoned, the flies
may be kept until they give bonds for
their future good behavior, or are other
wise disposed of as prudence or domes-
tic economy may dictate.

1t is evident however that new era is

will be distinguished as one preeminen-

union. The policy that this movement
indicates torehodes no good, either to
