STRONG GUNBoATs.-An exchange furnish
es the following account of one of the gun
boats of the Mississippi fleet: "A powerful
gunboat has been prepared at St. Louis,
which Captain Foote intends to make the
flag ship of the Mississippi feet 1t was
formerly the Government snag boat, Thom-
as ii. Benton, was afterwards sold to a
wrecking company, and subsequently pu--
chased by the government for conversion in
tG z gpahoat- Eor eisht weeks about two
hundred men have been at work on her, and
their labors are nearly completed. The twin
hulls of the Benton have been connected so
as to form one powerful hull of lS6 feet in
length and "A feet in BREADTH
The hull is very staunch, and is sealed up
inside with three and four inch plank. 1t is
divided into forty water-tight compartments ;
thus the Benton may he considered one OF
the safest war vessels it would be possible
to build, for it would be scarcely possible to
penetrate every compartment during the
closest and heaviest firing into her for hours.
And then her hull over to below the waite
line, as well as every other exposed part OF
the boat, is covered with heavy iron That
about the middle of the hull is two and a
half inches in thickness, and securely fast

are rivited inside, the heads of the bolts be-

Disastrous Fire.

The Bulletin gives the following account
of horrible disaster that occurred in San
Francisco on the morning of the 11th inst:
At about three O'Clock this morning fire
broke out on the corner of Montgomery and
Pacific street, destroying number of tene
ments and the large zinc building used as a
lodging house. The houses consumed were
filled with dodgers, and during the fire the
rain fell in torrents, and the wind was driv-
ing and boisterous-rendering the scene one
of the most dreadful ever presented y this
city. The spread of the flames was rapid,
and the loss of life is estimated at between
ten and fifteen persons, including two wo-
men and two children. The most of them
were suffocated in their rooms, and their bo-
dies, horribly charred and burned, were ta-
ken from the ruins this morning and convey
ed to the dead house. Below are the names
of the dead and injured, as far as ascertained:
The DEAD.-Thomas Purcell KILLED by
jumping from window.
Patrick Ward (of the firm of Ward and
Mccarthy, produce dealers, on Clay street,,
Mrs. Harrington and her two children
(from Sacramento who came to this city in
consequence of the hood)
One woman (unrecognized).
INJuRED.-James Feeney, perhaps fatally,
by jumping from window
Mr.. Temple, leg fractured
Both Of the above were laborers in the ap-
praisers Office.
More bodies will probably be found in the
ruins, as a number of persons, supposed to
have been dodgers in the houses consumed,
are missing.

NEz PERcEs.-Our friend and former fell
low citizen, says the Red Bluff Independent,
Frank Mcguire, returned on the last boat
from the Nez Perce country, where he has
been since July. We have had the benefit of
his experience in, and views of. the new
mines. He was engaged in packing while
there, and had an opportunity of becoming
thoroughly acquainted with all the facts con
cerning the new diggings He says there
were a number of persons, last summer and
fall, who made good wages (while others
made nothing at all but as to $500 or even
$500 a day being taken out by anybody, it
is all humbug. He says these miraculous
stories about big strikes are manufactured by
speculators and Oregon newspaper editors.
He says if there is another Fraser river rush
to these diggings there will be badly fooled
community. However, he contends there is
money to be made there, and it is his inten-
tion to return, as he has left his pack train
up in Oregon.

~ CoUGHs.-The sudden changes of our eli
mate are sources of PULMONARY, BRONCHIAL and
AsrHxArrc AFFECTIONS. Experience having prov
ed that simple remedies often act speedily and GER
tainly when taken in the early stages of the disease
recourse should at once be had to "Brorn's Bron.

Our NationaI song.

DEDICATED TO THE PEOPLE OF THE Union By
VANITY FAIR.
Of all the broad lands on this beautiful Earth,
And all the fair islands that swim in the Sea,
No spot is so dear as the land of our birth,
No country so noble, no people so free
We are freemen, and mighty through Freedom
alone,
The State may be shaken, but never o'erthrown,
1t shall stand in its grandeur forever.
Forever!
1t shall stand in its grandeur forever!
We are proud of our country-Who would not be
proud
OF its forests, its rivers, its mountains so grand,
And its patriot heroes, whose souls never bowed
To aught but their God, and the laws of the
land?
We are proud of our fathers-the blood that they
shed,
And the freedom they won-Shall we part with
it? Never!
Better die than live slaves disgrace to the dead,
They were free, and we will be forever!
Forever!
They were free, and we will be forever!
Then fling out our banner the stripes and the stars,
The beautiful union of morning and night;
Our motto is Peace but we shrink not from
wars
As ready to die, as to live for the Right!
We will fight to the death for the land that we love.
Foes without, or within, no dissensions shall
sever;
And our last prayer shall be (angels watt it aboveD
God bless dear country foreverv
Forever
God bless our dear country forever!'

The Caucus.

THE following truthful picture of the
political caucus in this Country is from
a French writer in the RerUe des Duer
Nondes:
ssThey are filed with briefless lawy-
ers, doctors without patients, with schem-
ers and place hunters, who devote them
selves to the triumph of the party in
order to be elected to some little salari-
ed place. The immense majority of the
citizens have no other alternative than
to accept their nominations as they stand,
or reuounce the exercise of their vote. "
