Work has been progressing rapidly on the
Arsenal Bridge and the stone work will be
completed in two weeks. Two unfinished
piers and the sbutment on the Rock Island
side will be finished in a week, and the
building of the abutment on the Island
shore will occupy another week. Various
estimates for the iron work have been sub.
mitted and forwarded to Washington to Gen.
Rodman.
Most of the laborers and stone cutters at
the buildings have been discharged and the
laying of stone has been entirely suspended
for the present There are some stone cut
ters however, retained, to prepare stone for
the resuming of work in the spring.
The iron joist of the first story of one Of
the new buildings have been laid. This
work has been very much facilitated by the
employment of q hand drill, an ingenious

TELEGRAPH WAR.-The Western Union

MES have commenced fighting each other
with low tariffs. That's the effect of compe.

people enjoy it. In st. Louis and other
towns on the river both companies advertise
reductions of twenty-five to fifty per cent.
We hope the combat will be pushed to this
point, and that the "great decline in rates
will soon be advertised here. Our columns
are open for advertisements, on both sides.

Rock Island for long time. Something, Of
course, was due to its being thanksgiving

LETTER FROM GENERAL BUTLER.-Louis-
ufue, November l4.-The Courier and Jour
nal publishes to-day a private letter from
General Butler, in which he says:
That we are politically opposed, I
think, must arise from the different lights
in which we see the same thing. The
South has no frmer friend than am, and
ever have been. 1t is part of my country,
and although it may misjudge as to the
best way to preserve the South from the
consequences of what must regard as o
great crime, and still worse blunder, yet
would do anything that I could be con-
WINGED would tend to the prosperity, quiet,
and regeneration of the South as part of
my country. bear no hatred toward the
South or southern men as such, if know my
own heart, but am opposed only to those
who still war upon the best interests Of the
country as I understand them-and that
opposition, from the very necessities of my
nature, will be stern and unyielding one.
I hope to see you and assure you in person
that I cen be as ardent friend in peace
as I was determined and unrelenting foe
in war"
The Courier and Journal saya Of this:
"As o partisan we have untiringly fred
the heaviest guns in our battery at General
Butler. When he scars higher, and demon
strates that his will is equal to his capacity
for good, our guns shall be spiked, or turned
upon those who may assail his acts in our
behalf"

THE FERRY-BoAT ACCIDENT IN NEW
YoRK.-The ferry-boat Hamilton, laden
with over 900 passengers, was approach
ing her slip on the New York side of the
Fulton ferry. At the then state of the tide
lHool) it was necessary in approaching the
slip to make considerable detour, so as to
drop IN on the tide. When the boat was in
the actual curve Of the detour southern
propeller tied up to the next pier let go her
clew line, and thus swung into the passage
through which the Hamilton should pass to
her slip. The wheelman Of the Hamilton
perceived the danger, when, according to
mis- belief, accident was inevitable. He
thought that he should either run into the
propeller or strike the pier. In his effort
to escape he unfortunately ran the Hamil-
ION into the slip where the Union was
chained up.
The fact Of the Hamilton being heavily
laden, and Of the passengers being crowded,
as usual, upon the bow, so depressed it
that it ran under the bow of the Union =;
and consequently the guards, knight-head,
and what is known as the hood, were car
ried away. The accident caused the great
est CONSERVATION, and there was general
rush for the after part Of the boat. Women
screamed and faintel, boys and men yelled,
and the scene was one of great confu"ion.
A number of persons were injured by being
run over and trampled upon, several had
their legs and arms crushed, and it is said
two went overheard. The entire side of
the forward ladies' cabin was broken into
splinters for ten or fifteen feet from the
front, and the ratings and stauncheons
were carried away.
A boy named George Brewer, an appren-
tice at the printing business, was killed,
and William Brock, Contemporaries,
was fatally injured. The following persons
were fatally injured: George Devoe, who
has since died; John Thompson, Alfred
Hart, Francis Meary, and William Cum
rnines. The following were badly hurt, had
limbs broken, &c.: Kate Farrell, Julia Ma
han, Mrs. Ouinby, Charles Gaulast, Mrs:
and Miss Corrigan, Michael Hart, Michael
Morrill,, Sarah Clark, Lizzie Clark, Charles
Gross, Eliza Campion, Julia barley, Catha-
rnc NAMELY, Miss Cunningham, ana a

A New PROPELLING POWER FOR STREET
RAILROAD CARs.-NIr. A. A. Wilder, of this
city, has completed an invention which, in
the opinion of large number of scientific
gentlemen who have witnessed lts opera
tons, is destined to reVolutionlze the whole
system of street railroadiug. Mr.. Wilder's
invention consists of q steam condenser ana
appliances for attaching locomotive en-
CINE to the forward platform of the car in
such manner that neither steam, smoke,
nor cinders, can escape, and the noise made
by the machinery is not SO great as that
produced by the working of sewing ma
chine. The boiler is located upon the plat
form, and occupies space twenty inches
in diameter, with an altitude of three feet,
while the engine is completely hidden I'M
der the body of the car, and protected from
dust, frost, snow, ETC., by substantial
casing of wood and galvanized iron. The
propelling power is an endless chain, caps
BILE of sustaining strain three times
as great as the ordinary half-inch
log-chain. This chain, or band, runs
from the engine shaft to the for
ward axle, which is also connected with
the hind axle by another chain OF similar
construction, making all four of the wheels
driYing-wheels. The engine has capacity
of six-horse power, and as the shaft makes
two and one-half revolutions to one revolu-
ton of the wheels, it will be seen that the
latter reach hfteen-horse power. This in
crease of force is calculated to be OF great
advantage in starting the car and IN turning
curves. Another obvious advantage Is the
plan for heating the car in winter, which
may be done by running pipes under the
seats, through which the steam passes on its
way from the boiler to the condenser, the
latter being situated at the rear end of the
car. When no artificial heat is required,
the pipes may be disconnected with the
boiler, and the steam will all pass through
another pipe running under the car to the
condenser, from which it escapes BY slow
droppings in the form Of water. By using
anthracite coal and base burner no sparks
are emitted, and everything is kept free
from dirt and smoke.-Detroit Free Press,

Treasury Department, Office Of Internal
Reuenae, Washington. November I, 1861
Sir,-Iour letter Of the 81 instant has been
received.
TO your suggestion that the "stand-
casks y used by wholesale liquor-dealers,
holding froM forty to eighty gallons, and
from which they draw spirits to supply GUS
toners, are stationary vessels within the
meaning and intent of section 81 of the act
of July 90, 1868, have to inform you that
the Commissioner Of Internal Revenue has
already decided that they are not "sta-
tionary vessels " intended by that section,
and that in making up return of stock on
hand the spirits contained in them may be
gareed and the casks stamped as therein
directed.
There appears to be no provision of law
iorbidding liquor-dealers from emptying

casks for the purpose Of sale.
Very respectfully,

symptoms which leave no doubt of his in

complaining, but until this morning nothing
of a nature to alarm his friends and family
had occurred. By the advice of his physi-
