FUEL FAMINE AT THE WEST.-The position
of Cincinnati with respect to fuel is said to be
present emphaticaly that of famine. Thirty six
cents a bushel is now the price by the load for
coal, and exceedingly difficult to obtain at that,
whereas the usual price is about Is cents The
Gazette, of Wednesday, comments severely upon
the conduct OF several railroad companies in fail
ing to supply cars to those who have contracted 20
deliver coal in the city at Is cents and ls cents per
bushel. 1t adds:
There is much severe suffering on account OF
the fuel famine. in consequence of the Difficult
ties mentioned above, and the failure of q con.
tractor in Hamilton to deliver three thousand
cords of wood purchased from him last June, the
directors of the Infrmary had yesterday no fuel
whatever to supply the numerous destitute wi
dows and others depending upon them. The con.
sequences were mostipainful. We were present
ourselves when poor weeping widow assured the
board that her daughter was dying, could not live
until night she was watching by the bedside with.
out fire to keep herself warm, or to furnish the
necessary aid to her departing child. To meet ex
igences of this character some wood was borrow
ed, and q small supply of coal obtained at thirty
cents a bushel."
At Louisville there ia also fuel famine" and
coal has advanced to 40 cents q bushel The short
supply is attributed to the low water in the Ohio
river during the Summer, and the close of naviga-
ton soon after there was q RISE

were skimming the CLASSY surface. many quite as
far out as they could be seen from shore. The

of the waters beneath their gliding feet and that
