DOMESTIC INTELLIGENCE.

NEW YORK, July 31.-Coroner Kee-
nan will hold an investigation into the
explosion of the steamer Westfeld
yesterday, perhaps not before next
week. It Is Intended that It shall be
searching and thorough. No theory
is offered by the officers Of the COM
pany for the disaster. The engineer
says that when the Westfield steamed
out from the Island she had four cocks
of water, and from fact that a slight
noise accompanied explosion, he thinks
there could have been but a small head
Of steam on. The Collector ASSERTS
positively that there could not have
been more than $50 persons OIL board.
Graphing for the dead bodies was
kept up all night and Is still going on.
Shortly alter midnight Warden Bren-
nan reported over 40 dead bodies In
Bellevue, and about go most horribly
scalded and bruised, many Of whom
will doubtless die. Over 10000 per-
sons visited the Hospital after dark.
The boat Is known as an extra boat,
and was used on Sundays and holidays
or at hours when the tide of travel sets
strongly to Staten Island. She was
about to start on her first trip yester.
day, and was two or three minutes
behind time when the boiler exploded.

The Orange trouble in New York
brings up the question, often mooted
before, whether the abolition Of all
street parades would not conserve the
public peace, save citizens from fire.
Quent aud almost intolerable annoy
ance, and tend to lessen the feuds I'M
ported from over the water. That
parades have become a nuisance Is the
universal verdict, and nine-tenths Of
the population OF every considerable
city in the Union would be glad to see
them abolished by the proper legisla-
tive authority. 1t Is doubtful If they
ever subserve any good end, while the
lives lost for 1t Is rarely that any large
parade does not result In some killed
by accident or carelessness.) and the
drunkenness and rioting That are In
variably attendant appendages, much
more than counterfeit any little good
that by a vigorous stretch of the i'm
agination may be supposed to result.
It Is noticeable, In this connection,
that n majority Of the parades, indeed
nearly all of them, are for tile celebra-
ton of events in which American clti-
zens can have no possible Interest,
except perhaps In some cases a feeling
Of friendly sympathy, and on such
occasions we ore compelled to see our
own loved flag twlned beneath that of
some foreign prince or monarch whose
subjects have been driven to this coun-
try In order to enjoy their rights as
mer.. but who, when here and In the
u .,ioyment of all the rights Of native
!, horn citizens, seem to forget the good
they have found and the Ills they have
escaped, and to look back to the coun-
try they have left as the elysium they
sought. This Is not altogether unnat-
uraf. It Is a characteristic trait OF
human nature, and undoubtedly q wise
| provision In our mental constitutions,
to forget the bitter and remember only
the sweet of the past, and the longer
the vista of time through which we
look the g~reateris the sweet magnited,
while the bitter disappears from view.
| And the life of those who have sought
u refuge on our shores was by no means
an altogether miserable ne. Socially,
| perhaps, they were as pleasantly stu.
ated as now. and In thousands Of In
stances, no doubt, their homes were
pleasanter and more attractive rs
homes than those they now have, and
it Ia natural that In looking back to
them the enjoyment they had there
should stand out in vivid rainbow hues,
contrasting strongly with the priva-
lions of removal and life In a foreign
land, with its strange aud uncongenial
customs.-PhiIadelphia Press.

New ENGLAND is the chief centre of
the shoe trade, and the newspapers Of
Boston speak for 1t. From these, Of
recent date the country will DO gladto
learn that the Fall business in boots
and shoes has opened with more than
ordinary vigor. Buyers are more nu-
merous than usual at this season, and
there Is less attempt on their part to
force down prices than is customary at
the opening Of trade. Manufacturers
have offered their goods low. The
stock Of goods Is light, and with the
prospect Of a large consumptive de-
mand, there is likely to be an advance
later In the season. The prospect for
the Western jobbers is flattering, and
what with low freights and heavy
crops Of wool and grain, the consumer
will be In a position to supply hi;
wants Mt remunerative prices to the
seller. Work in the shoe m%anuiactur
ing towns Is abundant and already
there Is some anxiety OH the part o.
buyers to have their orders filed at a:
early a day as possible.

Burnt on tho Stage.

From the Brisbane tAustralia) CoM-
Ter Of May 4th we clip the following
account of a serious accident on the
stage:
During the performance Of "Truth
and Falsehood" at the Alexandria
Theatre, Brisbane, MI. Creighton, who
was standing in N OF the side wings,
heard n scream coming from the ladies
dressing-room. On gaining the room
he was astonished to find Miss Eliza
Wilson, Que of the actresses, In flames.
Her dress caught fire from n bracket
that was lighted in the passage-way:
Mr.. Creighton snatched 4 curtain and
wrapped It around her rs quick as pos.
sible, but the wild and frantic lady
tore 1t from off her and rushed out OH
the stage. where Miss Rosa Cooper
was performing her part. She ran to.
ward her, screaming, her clothes still
blazing, thus setting Miss Coopcr's
dress OIL fire also. Mr.. Harding, who
by this time came to the front of the
stage, quickly pulled the burning dress
to pieces from Miss Cooper's person,
thus saving her. BY the aid Of q few
| gentlemen OH the stage, Miss Wilson
| was thrown dowr, several pieces Of
curtain were rolled round her and the
| flames extingulshed, not. however. un-
ill the poor creature was terribly burnt
| about the breast and arms. She was
quickly removed to her residence and
Dr. Cumming called to her attendance.
He thinks, though terribly burnt, that
she will recover. Mr.. Harding came
to the front and announced to the au-
dience that the sad accident which had
lust occurred would cause the further
performance to terminate for that
| night. Miss Wilson's loss will be
much felt. as she was a great favorite
with the Brisbane pleRsure-seekers. 1t
Is to be hoped that her recovery will
be speedy.

THE SouTH.-The heavy cotton crop
of the South. 1t Is argued, was mainly
created by the labor OF the freedmen,
who IN this way proved that the negro
when not under the control Of a rigid
task master would work in~dustriouSly.
The result of this trial, it Is stated, has
changed the relations between the
planters and the freedmen, and the
outcry against ''lazy negroes it Is
contended, will less and less be heard
until &c dies ont. This condition OF
afIalrs It Is said, has introduced new
methods Of life more consistent with
the system Of free labor. Among the
changes noticed In the South, are the
establishment of small stores for the
traffic Of the negroes who are now buy
ers, aud the increase in the number OF
school houses for the instruction OF the
new voters. The planters, 1t is stated,
are eudeavoring to retain their intlu-
ence over the freedmen by systematic
efforts for the improvement Of the COL
ored race. Contracts for labor are now
more generally observed, aud while all
proper liberties are granted to the
hands, freedom Of action is encouraged,

Remarkable Pefrifactisns In the
Sierra Nevada.

A correspondent Of the Marysville
Appeal writes thus from Camp Bid
we'll, In the northeastern corner Of the
State: .
Following on the ridge Of one OF
these igneous spurs, In the direction Oh
the main range, when rear the summit
we discovered small slabs and broken
bits Of petrihedl wood. Keeping In
the line of indications, We picked up
larger pieces, aud some fine specl-
mems; but hoping to find the matrix
we pressed mp tho mountain, and we're
soon a thousand times paid for our
labor. There we reached what az
peared to have been q grove, contain,
Ing many trees Of different sizes, all
fallen aud In a perfect state of petri-
faction, aud most of them broken into
tragmentary blocks, which were scat
tered over q space Of several acres.
One tree, perfect In contour, yet o
solid stone, two and a half feet IN d.
ameter, was exposed entirely above
tue ground for several feet at the butt,
the top.lying. down the bill and Gov.
cred with land and earth. The top OF
one OF these trees, containing many
knots, being sixteen inches long and
eight inches through, weighing some
sixty pounds, was secured aud carried
more than q mile to the wagon, be-
sides about the same number Of pounds
Of other specimens. The exposed por-
ton Of the large tree was not DIS
turbed, hoping at some future day, TO
be able to bring away n large section
Of 1t entire. Several stumps were also
discovered standing erect, but whether
or not roots were attached we could
not determine, having nothing but a
small hand .hatchet to excavate with,
and all being deeply set In the ground;
besides, the afternoon was now far
spent, and we had several miles to
| ride after reaching our team, which
WAS more than a mile distynt, over the
| most rugged country 1t has ever been
my fortune to travel, especially when
laden with sixty or seventy pounds OF
rock.
We have no room to speculate on
i LIl6UTl6S : Uub VIC CkilLOb PoSS
observing that 1t Is very remarkable
that a grove Of petriied trees should
be found above tile ground on a dry
ridge of mountains where no moisture
could possibly reach them except VIVA
fails In rain or snow. The evidence Ii
conclusive that this country has DeeIl
submerged since these trees were
grown, and afterward raised to the
present elevation.
Another very remarkable fact con-
nected with this subject Is, that three
years ago q surveying party discovered
a petrihed human skull a few miles
further south In this same range OIL
mountains. This skull was found on
the surface Of the ground near the
summit of a dry ridge overlooking
Smoke Creek Station, between Bidwell
and Reno.
If then tho former Is evidence Of M
antedIluvian growth OF timber, the
latter Is just as certainly evidence
that the country was Inhabited by mar
at the same date. The largest tree In
question gives evidences OF an age OIL
about four hundred and thirty years,
other specimens Indicate III age vary.

j. J. Robins will be remembered by
the denizens Of Virginia city, as the
husband Of MARY jane Simpson,"
who wrote so many lying letters last
year to the San Francisco Chronicle
and Robins Is the man who hunted up
the material for them. According to
their stupid ideas of things, hardly q

Comstock-and especially was the
d Crown Point and the Belcher entirely
worked out /; and so with every mine
except the Hale & Norcro''. Robins
was n great fslsifler, his own and his

nlmsy game Of "plauchette," (Which
none but silly fools would ever place
reliance upon.) The Chronicle got rid
of its silly correspondent, MARY Jane
