INCIDENTS.

Numerous incidents are told showing great
haroism. or the total want OF such a quality,
on the part OF the drowning people. 1t said
that on. man. a passenger, who was saved In
one of the boats, left his wife and child on the
vessel, and in his abiect fright did not seem to
| think OF them until he was himself safe on
land. II is pity some worthier person had
not been saved in his stead.
Mr. Eviston was with his wife on the pilot
house, and his sole care seemed TO be for her.
When near the shore, huge wave washed her
OF into the lake. Her husband instantly left
| his place and SWAN to her assistance. Selling
her in his arias he struggled back through the
waves and by great exertions succeeded in
placing her again by his side on the pilot house.
Both were saved. Such deed reflects more
glory upon the doer than is achieved by him
who cong quers nations by the sword.
Edward Spencer student of the Garrett
Biblical Institute, was especially prominent
in his efforts, and plunged into the surf with
rope tied round his body thus rescuing sew
eral from a watery grave
The Inmates of the houses in the vicinity
were very kind, and provided all the necessa-
ries for the recovery of the exhausted ones
who were rescued.
John Furlong, when the boat began to break
up, succeeded in finding a cabin door, win
which ne threw himself ints the water a
man who gave his name as Gongn, from IN
diana. made his way 10 Furlong's raff, WnIcu
proving insp Efficient for both, and GouRh re-
fusiuZ to reiinQuish his hold, Furlong Ielt IL
and succeeded in reaching a cattle pen. upon
which he and comrade succeeded in reaching
the shore. Cough was lost.
The tug Moo ueen, which went out to the
scene of the disaster in the morning, was un-
able TO get near enough in shore to render any
material assistance. She cruised about ln the
vicinity for several hours, during which time
the dead body of an infant was picked up
The Lady Elgin was owned by Gnrdon ,.
II bbard, Esq. She was staunch, thoroughly
built craft and one of the most sea"oTtny
vessels on the lakes. She was insured for S3f,-
600. The books of the boat and the stewards s
desk con tanning some money and watches,
were saved, and are in the possession OF the
owner.
The catastrophe is the saddest one that mas
ever occurred on our lake, and mas cast a
gloom over the entire community While al
many hearths that but yesterday were sur
rounded with happiness, is heard the voice OF
mourning May we never again have occa
sion to chrouicie go awful disaster!

rY The opponents Of the Democratic party in
form of principles This is the custom of parties
The Democrats will assemble and re-announce their
tme-honored principles on the 9Th of next month
Meanwhile it will be we'll to avoid committals or ex-
treme declarations. Let US await the action Of the
great Democratic Council. When that shall have
spoken let us lock arms and enter the contest in ac
cordance with the plan which it will present. "In
the multitude of counselors there is safety" Con-
ventions honestly and fairly held constitute the con-
densing motive power of parties. 1t will not be
wise or we'll in any Democrat to say, ~ will not
act with the party if it should do so and So or re-
thecountry is the Democratic party. All good DEM
Gratis feel this to be SO. Let all good Democrats,
therefore, act accordingly. For our part we are
'enlisted for the war" No State issue shall shake
our faith or embarrass our action. Let us remem-
Der the days Of old, when we fought uphill against
forces largely outnumbering us, and when UNITY,
next to our glorious principles gave us Victories
As we won so We must hold We cannot afford at
q time like this either to rest or wrangle. That
Democrat who prefers discord to concord, who sets
up his will against the will of thousands of Others
who prefers himself to the cause or who would ex-
haust his energies in warning on those in his own
party, instead of on the common enemy-let him be
marked Let ou. motto be, "union and harmony,
everything for the cause and nothing for men," In
essentials let there be unity in nonessentals toler-
alton, and in all things charity.

HIGH PoINr.-The Reporter gives cheering ac-
count of the progress and prosperity of this village
Its location is highly advantageous in many respects
and with proper industry, energy, and foresight its
inhabitants can render it in time one of the most
important interior towns in the State.
The Reporter-which by the way, is one of the
most readable exchanges we receive-is urging on
the people of the village the importance of manu-
featuring establishments as means of prosperity.
That paper says:
1--WE suggest then, in view of these facts. and
many others that might be adduced, the propriety
of citizens turning their attention to the sub
ject of manufactures. The south is becoming more
and more convinced of the necessity of looking at
home for the necessaries ard convenences of life,
and is feeling every day the increased weight of de-
pendence upon an unfriendy section All this tends
to increase the probability Of profitable investment
of capital in manufactures in the south but even
without this, statistical facts will abundantly show
that some branches of manufacturing in the south
have paid we'll and have been the means of building
up those localities where they exist We shall al
lude to the subject at future time, and endcavor
to give such statistical facts as shall throw more
light on it."
