The CALAMITY AT SHEFFIELD Almost
hourly the already fearfully narrowing details
connected with the great tragedy in the valley
Of the Lcxley and the Don are increased in
number; and it seems now pretty certain
that at least 800 lives have been lost; but it
would appear to be almost presumptuous to
estimate the damage to property, which is
immense and varied in its character. The
great question uppermost in the minds Of all
classes s, as to the meaos to be provided for
alleviating the distress of the sufferers. Shef.
field has nobly sustained her reputation for
thorough warm heartedness, and sympathy
with distressed, of whatever climate and coun-
try. She has in three days raised nearly
4l5,OOO for those bereaved by the Brsd6sld
calamity. The most gratifying testimony to
the innate humrnity Of the Sheffield opera
tives has been borne in the fact that, during
one day, nearly 5000 pennies were vountari.
ly put in box placed for the purpose of re.
ceiving penny subscriptions for the distressed.
In many towns, meeting are about to be held
to augment the fund; and I am sure Liver.
pool will respond nobly 10 the call. The fund
is an absolute necessity, for j, is in vain to
tnlk about the liability Of the wster company
and to rely upon the uncertain course and ac.
ton of tue law for relief TO the sufferers by
THE calamity; that the company are liable
no one seems to deny. Liverpool (Eng }

RRrarBurrvE JUSTICE The Nashville Vi

RRrRrBUrIvE JUSTICE The Nashville Un.
ion describes the summary execution of one
Champ Fergusos, notod guerrilla. After
the defeat Of Ferguson's command, the guer.
rlIas scattered, and were eagerly hunted down
BY Col Stokes men. Whenever one was ta.
ken, he was shot without ceremony. On the
capture Of one Of the gang the next day after
the fight, he was told to prepare for death.
when be began to plead piteously for bis life.
He informed the cavalry that if they would
not kill him, he would conduct them to the
house where Ferguson was concealed. They
agreed to the proposition, and soon a squad
Of Col. Stokes' men had surrounded tie house
in which the guerrilla chief was secreted. A
party entered and found Ferguson lying on a
bed in one Of tho rooms suffering from the
wound received the day before. They imme.
diatey surrounded the bed, and ridlled his
body with pistol balls. The act may seem
inhuman, but we must rccollcct that Fergu
son first instituted this mode If warfare, by
deliberately numbering all Union prisoners
that fell into his hands.

beg that YOU will excuse me from making a
speech. When offer to beg this favor Of
YOU, hope that you will not believe for a

10 which you are engaged. The spirit Of old
Maryland, so long weighed down by mon
strous institution, at last begins to heave and

The WHOLESALE CLOTHING TRADE.-The
wholesale clothing trade in this country has
become OF such vast importance, as well in It's
magnitude as in tho reduction Of prices which
it has oceas;oned in what may be justly regard
ed as one Of the first necessities Of man, that
it deserves place in cur columns, and our pa
irons will doubtless be pleased TO SEQ other rep
reservations from the great warehouse Of Mes
srs. Kirkland, Bro-son & Co.
This branch Of industry is Of domestic ori
gin, and was almost unknown forty years ago !;
the nearest approach to it in that day being
the manufacture of clothing by few individ
uals in the city who had branches for the sale
Of their goods at retail in som Of the Southern
cities. The demand from Southern merchants.
however, which arose for clothing ready made
for sale, soon developed the wholesale clothing
busieess, and prior to 1887 there were half a
dozen or more houses in this city engaged cx
clusively 10 the trade, and somo Of them to a
considerable extent. The business was al
most wholly confined to the South, aud the
class of goods made up for the trade at that
period was mainly Of tie lower and inferior
grades. The revulsion OF 1887 Frustrated
this as we'll as other branches of business, and
extiugushed the firms then engaged in it,
With the subsequent revival af trade new
houses entered into The business, other cities
became identified with it, ths western country
opened up the new markets for its sale, and
the business rapidly increased, until, 10 1850,
it had attained its zenith. Then came the
war, and with il the loss Of the Southern iu
debtedness, in consequence Of which it again
tAtp Dnk nInf Ia IL
an indispensable commodity, ard hence we
fipd the business quickly revived under the
management Of larger, wealthier, and moro
experienced firms.
New York has always been the chief depot
OF supply, and will always control the largest
share of the business. New York clothing is
famed far and wide for its excelleuce-thc
characteristics which distinguish it above the
make Of other cities being novelty in the de-
signs, durability aud taste in the material and
trimmings, and superiority in the workman
ship. In former times manufacturers hesita.
ted at making up anything above the medium
grade Of goods. But now, 10 addition to
manufacturing heavy lines Of the medium and
above named is obliged also to keep full as
sortment Of fine goods, equal in every respect
to the very best custom made work.
There are now engaged in the Wholesale
clothing trade in this city alone over one hun.
dred firms, with capital invested Of at least
ten millions of dollars. The number of opera
tivss in New York and vicinity who gain their
living from the clothing trade is abou. 10000,
one half Of whom may bs employed on Gov.
ernment work and in the retail trade, and the
other half by TIE wholesale trade, which con
tributes toward their support not far from ten
millions Of dollars a year wages. Tho amount
Of internal revenue which the Government de-
rives from i is probably more than million
Of dollars year. Harpcr's Weekly.

track in May and July. Government credit
will be firm for ten years after peace is de.

is probable. France will be the first to receive
punishment from America. A republican form
Of government will soon be guarant eed to five

A Northern Song.
BY JOHN @. WHITTIER.

Now Joy and thanks forevermore!
The dreary night has well-nigh passed
The slumbers of the night are DER,
The giant stands erect at last
More than we hoped in that dark time,
When faint with Watching few and worn,
We saw no welcome day-star climb
The cold gray pathway Of the morn.
o weary hours O night of years
What storms our darkling pathway swept,
Where beating back our thronging fears,
BY faith alone our march we kept!
How jeered the scoffing crowd behind,
How mocked before the tyraut train,
As one by one, the true and kind
Fell fainting in our path of pain
They died-their brave hearts breaking slow
But, selfforgetful TO the last,
In words of cheer and bugle-glow,
Their breath upon the darkness passed.
A mighty host ON either hand
Stood waiting for the dawn of day,
To crush like reeds our feeble band =
The me IN has come-and where are they?
Troop after troop its line forsakes
With peace-white banners waving free,
And from our own the glad shout breaks,
OF Freedom and Fraternity
Like mist before the growing light.
The hostile cohorts melt away:
Hurrah our foemen of the night
Are brothers at the dawn of day,
AS unto these repentant ones
We open wide our toil-worn ranks.
Along our line murmur runs,
OF song, and praise, and grateful thanks.
Sound for the onset Blast on blast,
Till Slavery's minions cover and quail
One charge Of fire shall drive them fast,
Like chaff before our Northern gale
prisoners, in your house Of PAIN
Dumb, toiling millions, bound and sold,-
Look, stretched in Southern yale and plain,
The Lords delivering hand behold
Above the traitors pride of power.
Ms iron gates and guarded wall,
The bolts which shattered Shinars tower
Hang, hang, smoking for fiercer fall
Awake awpkel my .Fatherla
1t is thy Northern light that shines
This stirring march of Freedom's band,
The storm-aong of thy mountain pines!'
Wake, dwellers where the day expires
Your winds that stir the mighty lake,
And fan your prairie roaring fires
They're Freedoms signals wake awake
