There was no disturbance or oxcess of any
kind, Every man was in rags. aud every

of privation and distress A banner or two
contained inscriptions indicative of their
character and their wants, and a few carried
money boxes to receive any donations that
might be bestowed upon them.
Why, knew not, but it was not deemed
worth while to prevent this demonstration
ON the part of the authorities; but th,
sight was one that did not tend to add
greatly to an Euglishman's pride. Thes,
men, it is well known, were only the rep

The Rreak UP.

On Sunday evening last, tho long OK.
pscted break up Of the ice in the Mus
kingum occurred. Never before had
thore been such ice, and never before
were such approximations of losses
along the river INDUCED as necessarily
incident to q thaw. For two days had
the citizens Of this place and the sur
rounding country been ready to leave
their various occupations and run to
the waters edge to witness the grand
but ominou rush of the element as it
bore, in a few moments, to destruction
the products ofthe labor and economy
.ofyears. Bridge stock, mill property,
and all river property, had deprecated
in value IN the minds Of many, and
and even the most sanguine could not
but entertain their doubts and fears
The bridge being most exposed and
not entirely finished, was little expect.
cd to stem the current and the immense
weight Of leo, The foot of Center St.
was, therefore, tho point of attraction.
The breaking Of the gorge above occa-
stoned a raise there of near eight foot
in about a half hour and started and
brought with it the a~ll-dreaded ico.-
But tho piers Of the bridge withstood
it nobly and demonstrated to the sat
iAfaction and, we mny say, qualification
of all, the perfection and solidity Of
their build. But when danger had
seemed to have passed, and the minds
Of the spectators had been calmed5 a
crash was heard and the regretful til
dings was heralded from one to anoth-
or that two spans had been swept away
by the Judgement Of a tree against it.
The following morning the river was.
cleared Of ice, and the damages JUS
tanned in this vicinity were inconsid-
cradle, compared with what was expec-
ted. The piers and one span OF the
bridge remained and the stockholders,
We understand, will soon repair the
damage. Sprague's storS-house, in
Malta, is damaged some in the foun-
datlon, but not beyond repair. Except
ing the fences destroyed, the buildings
along the shore flooded to the first
floor, we may say, the detriment tothe
bEidge and to Sprague's stOrO-housO
are all of the calamitios Of the break up
here. a44.
