On Friday the 9th the vicinity of Mil
waukie was visited with q heavy storm,
during which several boats and small craft
which was caught by it in the harbor and in
the offing of the Lake were capsized, and
six persons persisted. The Milwaukee papers
give the following details:
About four in the afternoon, Robert p.
Jennings, a merchant, and John ii. Sullivan,
n young lawyer, started out into the lake in
sail boat. They were seen about five
o'clock near three quarters of a mile out,
headed east. On Saturday the Decatur went
in quest OF the missing parties, but no trace
of them could be found. Later in the day,
however, portions of a small boat were dis
covered, which were identified as belonging
to the one in which the unfortunate young
men set sail The same nighta little fishing
vessel, owned by Henry Buchraid, and
manned by himself and two others, was cap
sized near the entrance of the harbor, and
two of the men drowned. Their compan Mon
escaped by clinging to the boat which wa:
soon washed ashore. On Saturday evening
the bodies of two men, evidently victims o.
the same gale, were found on the shore {
few miles from the city, which were ascer
tanned to be those of two men who were il
fishing boat on Friday. They must hav,
persisted in the same gale with the others.

bY- The Canatla's mails bring news that
ex-President Pierce was on the 9th ult.,
with Mrs. Pierce, at the Hotel Byron, in
Switzerland, preparing to leave for North
ern Italy. All along the route from Lisbon
to Marseilles he had been the recipient OF
distinguished consideration from public Of
ficers and private citizens. At Gibraltar the
senior officer in command of the British ma
val forces at that point extended marked
courtesies, and urged the ex-President and
Mrs. Pierce to take passage for Tangiers in
one of Her Majestys public armed vessels.
At MarSeilles the French authorities, head
ed by the project and the military commar-
der, were especially attentive and Jealous in
acts of hospitality. The health of Mrs.
Pierce, we are sorry to perceive, docs not
appear to have been substantially improved.

XXI. Grand Finale. The laying Of the
Atlantic Cable In this piece some new
principles will be attempted for the first time
in the Pyrotechnic art; the open portion
will represent the Niagara and Agamemnon
in the center, with the tenders, Gordon and
Valorous ahead; on the extreme ends of the
piece will be two light houses, connected by
line Of rolling waters, on which the ships
will slowly move toward their destination,
on arriving at which the center is suddenly
transformed into magnificent Temple oi
Science in all the splendor of the dazzling
colors, assisted by mechanical contrivances,
of which the art is capable.
Canopied by an arc of stars, (which rest
upon revolving columns upon whose bases
are recorded the names of Franklin, Morse
and Field), will appear a group of figures
representing Science uniting Columbia and
Britannia. Over these is an entablature,
with the motto; "The electric flash shall
belt the earth" The crowniH portion
shows the American coat-of-arms, in which
is entw incd the Union Jack with the Star:
and Stripes.
