One OF the most appalling incidents of the
Kansas freshets was the case of Mrs Brimb
augh and her family, consisting of herself and
four children, girl of II, two boys Of ) and
IL respectively, and an infant Of about six
months old. They were carried away house
and all, and were all clinging to portion of
the building, which served as Il raft When
they reached the crossing the raft parted. one
part carrying Mrs Brimbaugh, infant and eld-
est daughter, the other carrying the two bows.
lhelr raft stuck fast in some tree-tops, within
a few rods from the shore. A raft was then
hastily constructed by the citizens, and Mrs
Brmbaugh and her little son were saved.
Mr. Samuel Bostick made desperate effort
to save Miss Jennie Brmbaugh, who with the
lad and infant had been on the other raft, but
doing SO lost the girl and boy lie saved the
infant by taking his shirt and tying it to the
limb OF tree, swimming ashore alone The
current was so rapid at this point that it was
by the most superhuman efforts he succeeded
in reaching the shore. Tied to the tree the
poor little infant remained for five hours,
screaming for dear life, when Mr. Bostck
again determined to rescue it, and assisted bv
some citizens on shore, who held rope which
he carried, plunged in again. He made two at
tempts, and finally reached the little sufferer
lie then tied him to his back by means of Il
rope and swan ashore. SO rapid was the cur
rent at this point that, notwithstanding the aid
OF those ashore who held the rope attached to
Mr Bostick, he was carried down stream q
distance of over 100 feet

The citizens of Bangor and its vicinity arc
congratulatng themselves on the opening of
the European and North American Railway
to Lincoln, to which point the road was open
ed on Thursday. This portion may be re-
garded rs the first great section of the road
which is to connect Bangor, and the re- of
mankind travelling in that direction, With
Halifax and the eastern continent. Fifty
miles are thus accomplished, and another
fifty arc already under good headway, lead
ing to the border, ut which point that portion
of the road which lies in New Brunswick will
be completed and ready to pass the trains
on their first arrival there. The road, Us COM
plcted, passes through the village of Neazie
Orono, Great Works, Oldtown, Milford, Olam-
mon, Passadumkeag, and Lincoln. The
amount Of business and travel thus far has
exceeded expectation, and gives encourage
ment of Il successful enterprise The time
tables are so arranged that ears leave Lincoln
in the morning in season to connect at Ban
gor with the early train for Boston, and re-
turning, q train continues on ut night to Lin
coin in connection with the Maine Central,
thus allowing passengers the opportunity of
going to and from Lincoln and Boston in a
single day. The ''Air Line'' stage from Ban
gor to Calais is discontinued, and the travel
to the latter city will pass over the road to
Lincoln, anu tnencc by stage 10 Princeton,
about so miles, to connect there with the rail
road, thus saving about one days time for
passengers and the mail
Thus the great object which the hopeful
people of Bangor have awaited for q third of
a century, has been accomplished, Il railroad
connecting the city with the interior of the
State aud the country lying east of it. They
now look forward to the time when travellers
will have the privilege of celebrating Christ

Halifax, and in five days more Of fcastine in
London, through the agency of the .'steam

Too far for maiden's sight.
The ships sail on, the strong winds blow.

The white sails flicker and CLEAN.
And the ship rides gaily over the bar;
But the night is black. with never star.
And my heart is sad With its dream,
Only the dim of the seas far strand,
Only the dark see;
For he left me here, by the trodden sand
With only a rose in my little hand

FALL OF A BRIDGE AT ELGIN, ILLINOIS.

ELGIN, July ). Another terrible calamity,
resulting in serious injury to notices. than 80
or 40 persons startled our community at 10
O'Clock this morning. The Trueslell iron
bridge completed forthc second time. is gain
in ruins, OF at least Il portion of it. The
bridge was tolerably we'll filled with teams,
men, women and children, standing thereon
to witness the tub race A rush ofthe crowd
displaced the masonry, and the eastern span
Of the bridge, GS feet long, fell with a crash
to the water beneath, which at that point is
about feet deep.
The scene beggars description, aud the
thousands of spectators will not soon forget
the heart-rendng shreks of the hundred hu-
man beings, of all ages. who were thus sud
denly piled together in Il fearful manner
Willing hands at once went to work and res
cued the sufferers; and although thirty or
forty are known to have been niured at this
time it is believed that no human lives were
lost.
1t is the second time iii less than year,
that the Trucsdell bridge has fallen. and of
course the event of to-day. which has brought
sorrow to many a household is the subject of
remark on all sides. 1t is belived that at
least one of the sufferers. Mr.. Tourtelot, can
not survive. One horse was drowned. and
the incidents of the occasion are too nuncr-

DEMOCRATIC INCREASE. Radical politicians
annually amuse themselvs and find satisac-
ton in referring to the democratic party as
a dying aud all but dead party. 1t is true
the corpcs exhibits wonderful activity, but
then they affect to believe it to be only the
result of death agony Let us see how rapid
the advance of the democratic party towards
dissolution has been in the last dozen years
In 1856 Buchanan was elected president by
4 democratic vote of .S03029. In 1860 The
combined democratic vote was , 2,213,927. In
1864, with none of the southern states voting
and bayonets interfering in many Of the north
ern states, the democratic vote .Sl1,754 IN
1868, with large number of white men dis
tlanchiscd Seymour had 4 vote Of 2,7o6 ,G3l, i,
nearly half million larger than the vote for
Lincoln in 1864. The democratic party may
be dying, but it multiplies its strength amaz-
ingly.
