SAD EvEN1.-A singular and truly aifiictivs
casualty occurred at Olmstead, Cuyahoga,
lad, three or four years Of age, son of Mr.
Briggs, wishing to zee the men dress hogs, his
mother put on his cloak, and his father lifted
him up IN the branches ofan apple tree, where
he could look on and be out of the way The
lad was perched near by his father, and direct
ly over where persons frequently passed in
bringing hot water, &c Nothing unus ual was
observed, but when, after some time, the fath-
er lifted down his little son, TO his horror he
found him dead! The cleak had caught on a
limb and siraugied the child. The almost dis
tracted parents could not believe their darling
dead, and stroye for long time TO restore an!-
matfOa. hut In vain.

From WaShinofan

WASHINGTON, June 24.-It NAV be considered
certain that the Post Office Deficiency bill is lost
there is no probability that quorum will be
present tomorrow in the House to grant another
conference with the Senate that subject; and
were this accorded the bill would not receive
the Presidents approval, should the clause for the
restoration OF the suspended mail service be re-
tanned. Such is the present condition of the ques-
ton. The total expenses for six months included
in that bill amount to about 81 ,0000 900. Congress
having passed specia! law appropriating the pos
tages to the contractors for the quarter ending
with March, being little over S2,000,000, they
will have to wait for the remainder of the amount
Post Route bill may also be regarded as lost. As
it left the House, it provided for various reforms,
such the transmission of seeds, cuttings, and
blanks at cent per ounce, and for dealers to send
paGkages OF neMspapers at pro rata rates.

Tuesday, 18th instant, for New York. At half-p
| two A. NJ. of the 21st, wind fresh from n. N. E.
| q E., came in contact with schooner. Soon
after getting clear of the schooner discovered the
| ship leaking faster than the bilge and hand
| pumps could free her. Two of the boats were
| stove by the schooner, leaving only two others,
not of sufficient capacity to take all hands. Mrs
Seawell, wife of the first officer who was on board
| the sick, and such others of the crew who were
| considered most capable of taking of them
| selves, were put into the boat By the time the
| limited arrangements were made the steamer had
become so full of water that the order was given
for the lines from the steamer to the boats to be
cut away. The boats were just clear when the
| Walker went down. schooner, commanded by
Mr.. Hudson, cruised in the vicinity for some time,
hoping to save others. Nothing could be more ex-
pressive in regard to Capt. Hudson's conduct than
to say that he behaved a Christian in the true
sense of the term, and gallant seaman. Wewere
landed at Cape May, where the inhabitants did
every thing in their power to aid the distressed,
and this morning the steamer Delaware, Captain
Cannon, took on board, and, with the native in
stinct of gentleman and seaman, extended every
hospitality. The crew preferred going directly to
New York, and accordingly left in the evening per
steamer. From the time of collision to the sink
ing of the Walker only thirty minutes elapsed
She sunk in five fathoms of water. Absecom light

Guthrie showed himself worthy the trust and CON
fdence of a country. May it evince it.

Geods market for the pas. few weeks has been broken

Already the large Distributing houses Of the South aod
Wet have been in our market and those iobbers en-.
gagged In the early Southern trade have made consider
able purchases during the week. The assortmen's IN
this market are full and complete, without accumu-
lated stock pressing on the market review Of the
business in Domestic Cotton Goods for the past sig
noutbs presents results Of the most satisfactory char
acter whether In the department Of distribution or that
Of manufacture. The merchants of the interior,
as well as tie Larger distributors have confined
their purchases to immediate requirements, without
those speculative characteristics which prevail In some
seasons, and have adhered 10 tie cash or short time
system naugurated after the revulsion. This has en-
abled the country merchandise do profitable business
and has made the obbers, Glass; strong, and able
ct all times to anticipate if ssry their bills pay
able which at present IL tho rule rather than the ex
ceptiop. The gradual revival in the varied depart
mens Of our home trade has given such increased de.
mand for our manufactured goods that the production
has to great extent been entered for consumption di
rect from the looms leaving no surplus, which usually
attends this period of the year. Our export trade has
fo contributed is prominent share toward this result
reaching the important aggregate Of 260 packages
since January. We do not apprehend any Important
Increase in that department at present, those
fields of commerce have not been fay developed, and
it viii be years before We shall realize the
benefits to be derived from the commercial
treaties arranged within the last two years.
The trade with the South American Continent has
been quite important, notwithstanding the monopoly
which the British manufacturer holds, by those fadl-
tiles Of Communication on the Coasts established by
their Government, either by subsidy or otherwise;
and by the favor with which the American goods
received We are led to believe that il will continue to
increase until ii shal reach position Of the greatest
moment TO the manufacturing interest Of the country
TIE Wooden manufacturing interests however, during
the past Elk months have proved unsatisfactory from
combination of eauses to which we have had occs-
sion often to allude. The excessive importation, the
high price Of wool without corresponding advance in
manufactured goods have dcou aged many lubricants,
and new enterprises are thought Of. We slluded,
in previous review to the increase of Cotton spindse
during the past year. We are enabled 10 present
more detailed and perfect estimate which we annex:
