RIVER NBWS.-IDe river Wae ewei
ing here yesterday, the marks showing
fifteen feet three inches last evening.
It was about stationary at Pittsburgh
Yesterday morning, with nine feet three
inches in the channel.
Considerable excitement prevailed on
the whar yesterday because OF a tele'
graphic dispatch received from Pitts
burgh, announcing that the R. R. Hud'
son had been sunk at the landing there
The first dispatch left it in doubt wheth-
er the Hudson was sunk or whether
she had sunk coal boat. 1t read a.
follows:
RI Hudson, lying at wharfboat,
sunk. Struck coalboat in tow OF the
Blue Lodge, and sunk it; struck q
barge, in tow of the Veteran, damaging
it considerably.
We at once inquired through the Pa
cific and Atlantic line for particulars
and received the following:
Steamer R. R. Hudson sunk. She Is
living in water up to her boiler deck
with her nose on the sbore.
From George K. Wheat we learn
that there is no insurance on the Hud-
son. She had just been overhauled
and repainted and had gone to Pitts
burgh for a load for Cincinnati. The
following letter from Captain William
NJ. List, Of the Hudson. gives the full
particulars:
PITTSBURGH, October %, 1872.
We laid over last night ten miles
below the city so as to come to the
wharf in daylight. The Blue Lodge
was Strengthening around above the
point in the Mouongshela river. We
blew. two whistles. She answered all
right. We had to stop to get out OF the
way of boat above us, and the Blue
Lodges barge struck the Hudson Tor

sunk. The coal barge was saved. Ben.

that she can be raised with little ex-

there is more water.

A Dead ~HtpJnstaM

The theory that human beings whose
strength has been exhausted by pain and
sickness can DO restored by depicting medi-
cines and water Cruel, If not absolutely a
dead delusion, is in The last agonies of disso-
luton. At length it is understood that
strength cannot be purged into n debiIitated
frame, though life may easily be pulged out
OF 1t, and that it is about as wise to withhold
q healthful stimulaut from the weak, in the
expectation that they will rally without one
MS 1t would be to deprive a lamp of oil ana
expect 1t to burn the brighter for it.
The immense and uniform success which
has attended the use of that wonderful COM
blnation Of a pure stImulant with the finest
medicinal herbs, known US llostcttcr'S Stom-
ach Bitters, has largely assisted in disrelling
the absurd chimera. Frantic attempts are
made to revive it, but in vain. When the
sick feel that their strength is departing,
ana thal unless invi.oratcd they must utter
~ break down, 1t is vain to tender them fccu-
lent Stops in The place Of genuine r]estora-
lives. They may be imposed upon in this
way once, but the imposition cannot be re-
pealcd. They desire to be refr cshcd, comfort
hrac"ll up, and decline to be gripod n
second time.
Under The operation of the Bltlcrs, on the
olher hand, all the processes necessary to
restoration go on simultaneously,
The system is stimulated and toned, tho
bowels regulated, the appetite cultivated,
the nerves composed and the condition of
the blood improved al one and the same time
time by u single medicine. Common sense
tells US that such a preparation must be
in valuable.

How to Economic Labor,

ON our ability to plan work, and to

a farmer who knows how to do al.
kinds Of farm work, and knows what
II good days work is, if he hasa largo

profitable to take II team and pillow

Should be able to detect the weak
spots and lend n hand there. For
instance, if you are drawing manure
with three teams there will be one
wagon at thoheap, With the man be-

on unloa1ing in the field, and one
going back and forth. The rapidity
of the work will bede!ermined at one

spirit in the men. II, on the other
the load is ready before the
wagon returns, the weak spot is in

Seeding in Summer and with Buck
wheat.

There have been some inquiries in
regard to seeding down land in the
summer, also as to seeding with
buck heat. Two years ago in July,
| turned over II small piece of sod,
and after top dressing, seeded with
clover and timothy. l had u fine
catch and an early crop the next
year. The summer was wet which
was favorable. The same year on
the 18th Of July, l sowed a mixture
Of clover and timothy with buck.
wheat. Had n good growth Of buck
wheat, and a fair catch on both clo-
yer and timothy. In Aroostook
county, Maine buckwheat is Il staple
crop, and is held rs n good crop to
seed with. There is, however, one
advantage there, in that county
buckwheat is sown in the fore part
of June, which is spring in that eli
mate, aud it is pretty certain to be
frost-bitton by the fore part Of Sop
TENDER. This gives n time for grass
to root atterwnrd. Here in Ohio, if
we happen to have a heavy growth
of buckwhcat, ard to go clear OF
frosts till about November, as we do
now and then, the grass would fare
hard. But still | would not hesitate
to run the risk if | wished to seed
down u psoco intended for buck
