STEAMBOAT DISASTERS. The preva-
lence of steamboat disasters on the
Western waters is alarming enough to
stop all water travel in that region.
Since the first of December last, the
number of steamers blown up, burned
or sunk, is not less than forty-four.
Three of these wrecks have been report
ed within the last forty-eight hours.
one of them causing the loss of thirty
lives, and another the killing and
wounding oftwenty-persons. The most
melancholy part of these disasters is the
destruction of human life, but the loss
OF property has also been immense. The
frequency of collisions and fires shows a
degree of Iecklcssness which deserves
severe punishment; but the explosions
of bad boilers prove that inferior mate
rails and bungling workmen have too
often been employed. 1t is not likely
that we have yet seen the end of the an
palling list.-N " Post - Z "a

A RIGHTEOUS DEBT PAID IN FUIL-Some
tnlrty hve years ago, st Peters Church in Balm
bridge needing bell, the members of that church
ana others raised portion of the amount required
lof the purpose, and sent Hon. John c. Clark and
o"pt' 1ohn Newton, then of their village and ac-
1--WE men of the society, to Troy to make the pur-
chaSe. While on the way they came across Hon
'ohn G Mcdowell, of Chemung county, and then
State Senator, and casually made known to him
thelr errand, and that they had not funds enough
to make payment in full With characteristic lib
erality, Judge Mcdowell rendered them the
amount needed exacting only the promise that the
Dell should be tolled when he should pass away.
The bell was bought, elevated into its place in
the tower OF ST. Peters, and hung there for all of
these years, calling worshippers to church, and
COMMITMENTS to the sacrament and ringing mer-
ry peals for merry weddings it has tolled for the
dead, and tolled again at their burial. And 80
years have passed, until few weeks ago, when
Judge Mcdowell himself passed away, and the old
bell which had told of many deaths of those
who had gathered at its bidding, and who are laid
to rest within sound of its own echoings, tolled
out mournfully and slow, as it spoke of his death,
who had aided in its purchases, and who now
sleeps his last the valleys and hills of
his distant home Chendago Telegraph.
