Burning of the Propeller BoseObel.

From the Detroit Free Press, 4th.
The news was received here by telegraph
early yesterday forenoon, that the fine pro
peller Boscobel, belonging to the Northern
Transportation Company, and plying be-
tween Buffalo and Chicago, had been de-
stroyed by fire on St. Clair river, at a point
about three miles below the city of that
name. Later particulars We're received
during the day, and some facts were also
cleaned from the Captain of the Canisteo.
which boat arrived here OF 5 o'clock in the
afternoon.
The Boscobel passed this point on
Thursday night about II o'clock. taking on
neither freight nor passengers, and only
stopping long enough to throw on supply
Of wood at Bissell's dock. The vessel took
fire from her furnaces, and the flames
caught quickly and burned upward very
rapidly, as the engineer and fireman were
driven out of the hold with their clothes on
fire. In their torture they jumped over
board, and during the excitement and sur
prise, were left to drown. The second en-
gineer, George Ruehle, who was on duty at
the time, was a son of Alderman Ruehle,
Of this city, and the father passed up on
the steamer Dove yesterday to ascertain
further particulars, and to endeayor to Sc
cure the body.
Inc names OF the Otnof men lOSJ could
not be ascertained, though it is known that
the fireman lost is p native of this city,
while the assistant then on duty resided at
Buffalo. There were ten passengers on
board, but the boat was headed for the
Canada shore, and ran to the bank in time
to land them and the balance Of the crew.
She was still burning at noon yesterday, ly-
ing stern on to the bank, and the propeller
Free State was anchored near by, to which
were being transferred the passen-
gers and such of the goods as had
been saved. Most of the per-
sonal effects were lost. The Boscobel was
one of the staunchest boats on the line,
very large and her loss at this season of the
year will be severely felt by the company.
She was loaded with eighty tons of general
merchandise, consigned almost wholly to
Chicago merchants, not pound of which
was saved. She also had on board one
hundred and seventy tons of pig iron. The
boat hes SO near the bank that the wreckers
can easily recover the iron, but the boat
itself is total loss. She was commanded
by Capt ]. ?. Hodges, whose wife was a
passenger on the trip.

SUFFOCATED BY CHARCOAL.
A Strange and Melancholy Case at Ba-
taVia, N. X.---TvO Persons Found
Dead iD n Chamber.
From the Buffalo Express, 81

FROM the Buffalo Express, Sd.
painful excitement was created in Ba-
tavia, Wednesday morning by the discovery
of double visitation of death in the house
OF Mr.. William Hatch an old and much
respected citizen of the village The bod
les of Mr.. Hatch and his niece q maiden
lady VINO resided with him, were found
together, IN a room which was filed with
the fatal carbonic acid gas generated by
burning charcoal, life being entirely extinct
II both. An examination showed that the
charcoal had been used in o small stove to
warm the room during the night, which was
sharply cold, it will be remembered, and
that in some manner, by accident or neg
lect, the draught of the stove had been so
obstructed that the deadly gas escaped into
the closely shut chamber.
Mr.. Hatch, who was bachelor, well ad-
vanced in years, has been suffering of late
from distressing complaint. 1t is sup
posed that during the night he needed at

tourd dressed and lying on the sofa in the
room, Mr. Hatch himself sitting in a chair

As Mr.. Hatch was a gentleman of supe-
rlor intelligence and well informed, it is
not to be supposed that he was ignorant of
the precautions necessary in using char
coal. Some singular accident or inadvert-
ance must have caused the dreadful result,

PLANTATION has been found The suspicion
OF voluntary death is not entertained a

who is represented to have been a man of
much cheerfulness of disposition, well-to-
do III the world, and of undoubtedly sound
mind. AS we have said, he was highly
esteemed in Batavia, as was the unfortunate
lady who became Lis companion in death,
and the melancholy strange affair has occa-
stoned deeply sad feeling in the village.

= An OUTRAGEOUS AFFAIR. A most shame
ful and outrageous affair took place on
board the steamer Lady Grace, on Satur-
day night last, while she was returning
from the prize fight below Plattsmotffh.
The captain, during theup trip, requested
the man who chartered the boat to advance
him part payment. The fellow said he
had no money. Some of the crowd took
the matter in hand and concluded they had
been grossly insulted. The notorious
Grasshopper Sam led the crowd and at
once raised muss. They attacked the
captain and pounded him numerically.
From this on the scene presented, for half
an hour, was worse than pandemonium it.
self The crowd, led by two women-the
only females on board-began pulling down
the stateroom doors, kicking in the panels,
smashing windows, tearing up bed and
bedding, Jerking off cabin ornaments, jam
ing holes in the roof, demolishing furniture,
and IN fact destroying everything they
could lay their hands on. Drunken oaths,
fierce yells, hooting, bowling, drinking,
obscenity and blasphemy only formed an
accompaniment to the demoniac scene. =
Ev erything portable was pitched into the
river. After damaging everything within

PerilOus Ride Down the Side Of a
Mountain.

The Berlin correspondent of the London
Daily News, writing on the 10Th Of August,
says:
Several members of the Berlin Veloci-
pede Club have lately been staying at
Warmbrunn, near the foot of the Schnee-
koppe, which is the loftiest peak of the
Giant Mountains, and 4, $50 feet above the
letel of the sea. The summit consists of a
very sharp cone, about 600 feet high, and
is assembled by a steep and rugged zigzag.
Herr Langer, who enjoys great reputa-
ton for his skill in riding the iron horse,
sent up his machine without the knowledge
of his friends, and then assembled the
mountain in company with three other
gentlemen. As soon as he had reached the
top, and before his friends are able to in
terfere, he vaults into the saddle and rolls
down the first portion of the zigzag.
sat the first turning he and his machine
tumbled over; but, nothing daunted, he
mounts again and turns down the second
portion, coming to similar grief at the end
OF it. Here his friends overtalze him and
oppose his apparently suicidal intentions
with such good effect that at last he prom
lses to walk as far as the Riesenbaude. at
the foot of the cone. Here, however, he
mounts again, and rushes off at a perfectly
break neck pace. The little brake applied
TO one OF the wheels had hardly any effect,
and the machine flew over stones, water
channels and bushes, so that he probably
spent as much time in the air as on terra
tirma, He afterwards effectually iammed
the hind wheel with piece of wood, and
then things went on better In this man
ner he reached Seydorf at the foot Of
Schneekoppe, in an hour and q half, dis
tance which requires six hours, or rather
more on horseback. Here LANCER had
three more falls in the course Of his expe-
dltlon, and at one or two particularly steep
places he was obliged to dismount. His
friends, who followed in his track, never
expected to see him alive again; but. nev-
eftheless, he reached his destination With
| out any other damage to himself or his
machine than breaking one spoke of the
hind wheel. Some other members of the
Berlin Club went from the Josephinehutts
to WarmbrUnn, a distance of eleven Emo
lsh miles, in forty seven minutes. The
first six miles and half, which is all down
hill was done in ntwenty-three minutes.

THE --latest Dodge.

A very ingenious trick, by which gang of
swindlcrs are making money by mutilating
national bank-notes of the denomination OF
five dollars, has recently come to our no.
tice. The dodge consists OF making ten
bills out of nine, and is SO managed that
there is bat. one pasting to each of the
manufactured notes The nine whole bills
are taken, and from the right Of the first
one-tenth is sliced off; from the right Of
the second two-tenths; from the right of
the third thTee-tenths, and so on to num-
Der nine from which nine-tenths are taken
from the Ti4ht, or what amounts to the
same thing, one-tenth from the left. Num-
Der one is passed as 1t is, with q tenth gone
from the right; the one-tenth taken from
number one ispasted to the residue ofnum-
Der two, from which two-tenths had been
taken; these two -tenths are made toansWer
the place Of the three-tenths taken from
number three, and SO on through. Thus
nine-five-dollar notes are completely, leav-
ng the orr ginal number nine, with o tenth
gone from the left, as q tenth note
It will be seen that but tenth is gone
from each bill, and in different place on
every one, and a little ingenious pasting
makes the loss imperceptibIe to ordinary
observers. It's certain that large numbers
of these mutilated bills have been circu-
lated in this city, and our readers will do
well to look out for them. The rogues
who have carried out the fraud were cum
ming in selecting the denominations they
did. Larger bills would have been more
closely scrutinized, and smaller ones would
not have been so remunerative. A similar
thing was done by parties in WiIliamsville.
several years ago, with fifty dollar notes Of
the International bank of this city, but that
cheat was not so cleverly managed as this,
and was soon detected. The department
will not redeem q bill which bears evidence
on its face that it has been tampcre3 with,
and we advise our friends to scrutinize their
five-dolIar notes closely.

A Terrible Case of Hydrophobia.

The following paragraph appears in the
French papers:
On the Sd inst. one Jean Lombard, IS
years of age, farm laborer at Shampfor-
guiel, near Chalons, was attacked by hy-
drophobia, and attempted to bite several
persons, and succeeded III biting dog He
then went home to his friends at Sassenay.
Information was given to the police. On
their arrival they found Lombard at the
door OF his fathers house. He was foaming
at the mouth, and inspired such
terror that no one dared go near
him. The presence Of the police
having reassured the father and a
few neighbors, they coaxed him into q
room, locked it, and carefully barred all the
issues. Lombard, however, made no at
tempt to escape asked for some white wine,
which was let down to him through the
roof. One of his friends having offered to
go and attend him, he replied, ''You had
better not; shall bite you" He died at
o'clock IN the morning, after night OF
torture. Feeling he was dying, he reques-
ted the cure to be sent to him. The cure
came, and administered the consultations OF
religion through a hole in the window.
Lombard had been bitten six months ago,
but had not had the wound cauterized.

Genteel Smuggling.
From the New York Times.

/ The following extracts of letters received
/ by one OF the largest of our commercial
houses, OF the dates respectively of july L
and Aug, 10, give the particulars of a new
mode OF getting on in the world which has
been developed among our country peopfe
by foreign travel:
fHere is new feature in trade in Paris
that has just sprung up. B. IL Co began
1t during the Exhibition, and now there are
many others, men who are on certain terms

tells, keep there samples OF finest goods,
and dog every American that arrives, tow
ing them to their rooms, and taking their
orders and selling at Just the manufactur-
er's prices. They sell quantities of goods
(rlch goods in this way. A manufacturer
OF opera glasses has delivered each day

the amounts are large and all cash, and
they being at very small expense, they
make ten to fifteen thousand francs q week.

SPEED OF A RAILROAD TRA1N.-The spe-
cial Chicago Express, which left New York
Friday, at II a. M, made extraordinary
time between Syracuse and Rochester, as
will be seen by the statement below. The
locomotive was No. 103, and the train con-
sisted of three passenger coaches and
baggage car. On leaving Syracuse the
train was 19 minutes late, owing to hot
journal, and did not get off until 8:04, in
stead of 7:45. Jordan, II miles from Sy-
racuse, was passed in q minutes: Clyde, 80
miles from Syracuse, was reached in A
minutes, where a stoppage of u minutes
was made to cool the journal. Leaving
Clyde at 8 o'clock, Newark, so miles from
Syracuse, was passed at 9:14. fifty-eight
minutes running time; Palmyra, 56 miles
from Syracuse, was reached in sc minutes
running time; and Rochester, 81 miles
from Syracuse, was gained in just 81 min
utes on time The engineer was James
Wood, who once made the run from Roch-
ester to Syracuse in 100 minutes-6 min
utes more than the time given above.
