collect on the piers to look for wrecks aud dead
todies. By o'clock the gale had about spent
itself, though all the forenoon high wind and
very heavy sea prevailed. The barge Harvest
had broken loose from the west pier, and was
floating about. Floating in the water, just east
OF the pier was scow, lying on her side, her
bowsprit and gunwale out of the water, her
mast, rigging, and broken fragments of the
hull scattered all around. This was the vessel
seen at night, from the crew of which came
those heart piercing cries. Two bodies were
discovered in the water, one of which was
pulled out but the other drifted under the
pier to keep company with the others, which
doubtless are there yet.
The identity of this vessel could not be posi-
lively ascertained. On piece of the hull float
ing in the water the word Detroit" could be
plainly seen, but nothing more. A number OF
sailors who collected around the wreck were
positive that it was the wreck of the scow Mary
Amelia, of Detroit Capt Kerr. To the north
of the old passenger depot, being thrown
heavily against line of spiles, lay another
wreck, the hull completely capsized, the masts
and rigging floating near by. This little craft
was owned by two brothers, Alexander
and William Pierce, who lived on Dare street,
West Side. They were both on board the vessel,
Alexander being the captain and William assist
ing. With them was boy, whom they took as
cook. These three, like the five on the other
craft, must, beyond the shadow of doubt, have
been drowned, and the two vessels must both
have been lost while trying to make this port.
Some two or three miles east of the river are the
remnants of o wreck. A vessel was driven
ashore and totally wrecked near the rolling mill
there, and all on board must have been lost.

THE STORM ON THE LAKES.

Tho Wrecks nL CleYeland.

The Wrecks nj Cleveland.
The Cleveland PldiRdeGLer has the following
concerning the great gale on Lake Erie of Mon
day night, in which so many vessels and lives
were LOST
Seldom has so terrific gale swept over the
lake, and never has one visited this vicinity
which caused so much loss of life and property
in so short a time. The night was extraor-
dinarily dark. AS it approached midnight it
was evident that severe storm was brewing,
and many vessels made all sail for port. At
about 1919 o'clock, as the sailors report hurri-
cane burst upon the lake all at once, and many
a captain barely had time to putabout his craft
and let down canvas upon the run before the
gale was upon them. score OF gales seemed
condensed in enc, and the wind could almost be
seen to blow.
Rain fell during most of the continuance of
the gale. On the lake the scene was awful.
Captain Gouidier, the pier lghthouse-keeper,
and Captain Kennedy, the Custom House officer
on night duty, kept watch ON the pier looking for
vessel lights, occasionally catching glimpse of
a vessels light rocking on the waves now IN
sight, now lost in the water CULTS.
At about o'clock they saw craft but few
feet east of the lighthouse, and heard the agon-
lied cries for help of the ill-fated crew. Not
person could be seen, and only once in while,
as the overturned vessel was lifted on the crest
OF a wave into the rays from the lighthouse
feebly penetrating the darkness, could black
Something be spied on the water. A life-boat
was not far off-one which is here for the eX-
press purpose OF resculng people under such
circumstanees-yet for all the services TO
which it could be then pur it might never
have been sent here, because it was securely
locked in building, and there was no crew to
man il even could il be obtained and launched.
For a few brief moments the cries of the help
less sailors struggling for existence were heard,
and then, one by one, they ceased, and IL was
known that they were drowned, and, adding 10
the furious beating OF the water, could now be
heard the dull, heavy thGmp OF the wreck
against the pier. Another vessel was also seen
drifting with the wind, almost in reach; but
what manner OF craft she was, or whether her
crew were on board, could not be determined.

The idea was adopted, and the different arts aud

music marched to the different voting places, aud
thence to the piazza OF the Capitol up the Via

which are the two Egyptian lions. Each corpo-

one of the three bands which occupied the

most imposing procession was that of the arti-

Thursday. Dot. 40. 1870.


The loan market is generally quiet, though
the stock dealers continue TO keep the banks
fairly occupied in attending to their wants. The
activity noted at the Stock Exchange yesterday
has subsidized, but the shifting of loans insepara-
bic from such large amount of speculation
affects the market for several davs subsequently.
The supply and demand are fairly poised at this
time and rates are thus held steady, but with a
gradual decline in the regular mercantile de-
mand for discount loans we may fairly expect q
corresponding fall in the asking rates. To-day
call loans are active but easy at 5G6 per cent,
and choice business paper is in demand at 7@9
per cent.
Gold is quiet and steady with sales ranging
from 112T91131s, opening and closing at 112X.
Governments are also dull, and prices are
without a single change.
The stock market was dull and depressed.
Sales of State 6s first series, at 10415; and City
