DEATH OF JOSEPH SURGE.

The late accounts from England announce
che sudden and unexpected death, at his resi-
dence in Birmingham, of the distinguished phi.
lanthropist, Joseph Surge. On the morning
Of the 14th of last month, (May,) he had risen
at his usual hour, about halfpast six o'clock,
and his voice was heard cheerfully calling his
children to join him in riding out before break
fast, in accordance with their ordinary prac-
tice in fine weather. On returning to his cham
Der he complained Of sudden and severe pain
in the region Of the heart, which lasted about
twenty minutes, when it appeared to abate,
but his strength was utterly prostraIed, and at
about quarter past seven O'Clock he breathed
his last.
The death Of Joseph Surge will be widely
aud deeply felt. He was q man Of ample
means and of great liberality, especially in re-
iation to all reformatory movements that look
ed to the lettering of the condition, moral, re.
ligious, social, or physical, Of his fellow men ;
and to the causes Of anti-slavery and peace, es-
pecially, he was a most munifcent benefactor.

The BURNING FLUID ACCIDENT AT GLEN

burnt by an explosion of barrel of burning
fluid in a store at Glendale, a few days ago,
have so far recovered as TO resume their usual
ayocations, except Thomas Smith and George
Baker, who are yet confined TO the bed, al
though now convalescent. All the victims Of
the explosion still carry the black marks Of
the fearful accident, but it is hoped that none
will be permanently disfgured. Mr. Smith
probably saved his life by jumping into well

REMARKABLE FREAK OF L1GnrNING.-On
Friday afternoon, when the thunder storm pre-
vailed, the lightning struck the carpenters
shop of Edwin Taylor on Water street, under
rather peculiar circumstances. A hole, nearly
foot in diameter was made through the flat
roof of the building, ard the splinters from the
boards were scattered in the room below. A
number of men at work in the shop expert
enced no sensation when the lightning struck,
and there are no other traces of the fluid than

high chimneys of iron rising above the build

From PIXIES PEAK-.Sir Hundred Dollars
Worth Of Gold Dust Some little excitement
was created in Market Square, yesterday, by
an individual who had just arrived from Cher
~ Creek and who gave out that he had six
hundred dollars worth of the yellow dust right
in his pockets, which he had brought direct
from the Cherry Creek diggings. AS there is
a smart sprinklng of skepticism upon this
subject, the crowd grathered round in great
number, eager to see the glittering stuff They
called on the gold individual with one accord,
to come out and show the Dust to which he
readily assented, drawing forth a goose quill,
partially filed saying, "Here it is" ''But,"
said the multitude, ''there is no six hundred
dollars worth of gold" With great noncha-
lance he of Cherry Creek replied, Chat is
what it cost me, and by the time some of you
get as much you will think it is worth double
that sum-" The crowd Of gold hunters left
the scene in high disgust.-St Joseph Gazette,

The ILLINOIS ToRNADoEs-Singlldr and
Destructive Phenomend-Full particulars are
beginning to be received of the terrible lorna
does which passed over Jacksonville, ILL.,, on
the 26th ult A letter to the ST. Louis Repub
lcan, after giving list of houses blown down,
and of persons killed or wounded, says:
awe can give no better idea of the severity
of the storm than by stating few of the many
terrible things that happened. On Mr.. Joseph
Fry's place, everything-house, barn, furni-
ture-were torn into shreds the fences scat
tered for miles fifteen horses were killed, be-
side the inmates, seventy hogs, several head of
cattle, and all his fowls. The wagons were
blown to atoms, spokes knocked out OF the
wheels, and even the tires bent. This is but
one case in many. Several others suffered in
the same way. The house of William Nc
Donald, south of the place, was torn into
atoms, not ten feet square of the house or barn
remaining and, singular to say, himself, wife,
and children, escaped with their lives, though
they were badly bruised AT the place of Mr..
Barrows, in addition to the destruction to life
and property, he lost one hundred and ten
hogs out of one hundred and fifty.
A horse was found in the neighborhood
dead, with rail run through him lengthwise,
so that both ends were visible. Another horse
was found dead, with a bride and saddle on,
but the rider or owner has not yet been found.
1t is feared that he has been destroyed. Those
persons who were killed were badly mangled
in some cases the clothing was entirely strip
ped off the bodies, and in most instances the
bodies carried a long distance.
All this may appear mere fabrication.
Would it were so! Many of the citizens of
this place visited the scene yesterday for the
purpose of helping the sufferers, and from all
of those who returned we learn the same
dreadful news.
How many houses were destroyed or how
much damage was really done has not yet
been definitely ascertained. Every tenement
within six or eight miles was swept away.
The storm made its appearance in the south
east, at 4 o'clock p. m. 1t seemed at first
about the size of mans hand. Its first APP
pearance was that of a fountain boiling over.
1t increased in size, throwing a small cloud
like folds from clouds to the earth, increasing
in width and violence as it approached the
earth. 1t began in Calhoun County, carrying
rything-men, houses, barns, fences, trees
and cattle-with it, from Manchester to dis
lance of twelve miles, directly northeast We
can count thirty-six dwelling houses, with all
the barns and out-houses, destroyed. The
number of killed is about fifteen, while fifty
more are seriously if not MORALLY wounded.

MATRIMONIAL BRoKERAGE.--A city justice
in Cincinnati decided case on Saturday
which possesses peculiar interest from the
fact that is probably the first of the kind in the
State, being for services rendered in procuring
husband for a widow. The facts are as fol-
lows Samuel Milligan an Israelite, brought
suit against Mr.. and Mrs May for personal
services in bringing about match between
the defendants, at theinstance of the wife, who
was rather dilapidated specimen of widow
hood, with the aristocratic name of Mrs. De
Young. The plaintiff claimed for nineteen
days services, at SO per day, and brought suit
therefor. The justice finally rendered judg-
ment in favor of the matrimonial broker for So
and costs.

DIFFICULTY AT THE WESLEYAN ACADEMY.
An unfortunate difficulty has lately occurred
at the Academy in Wilbraham, which threat
ems seriously to interfere for the time with its
welfare and progress. The difficulty resulted
in the expulsion of the entire graduating class,
which consists of fifteen members, except two.
1t appears that much ill-feeling had grown up
during the season on account of the suppress
sion by the faculty Of the social interviews,
and occasional recreatons of the students of
both sexes, which the pupils had enjoyed so
long that they looked upon them US theirs by
right. They had accordingly held an ndig-
nation meeting in front of the house Of the
principal, Dr. Raymond, and to make the re-
bellion as aggravating as possible, refused to
accept the parts assigned to them for the an
nual commencement Of the institution. To
maintain the authority of the teachers the
recusant students were compelled to leave.
