Great storm at Duluth.
Especial to the st. Paul Dispatch.

DULUTH November 1--WE have jus9
passed through the fiareest storm known
here tor years. The water was tifteelP
inches higher in the bay than ever before
Last night about nine o'clock the end of
the breakwater near the elevator began to
give way. We thought that part was safe,
protected as it was with a wide sea wall Os
large rocks for 300 feet from the shores
You can now see nothing of the hreakwatero
though below the water level it NAV be inc
tact. Probably the breakwater is played
out. Since the opening of the canal it has
been mainly valuable to protect the brealSo
water and freight depot. The. top of the
breakWater being gone, the sea washed ino
Most Of the freight in the crowded freighe
house was safely removed to the cars The
waves swept away part of the track between
the elevator and the freight house, and the
wind tore off part of the elevator sheetingD
Unless something can be done this winter
the elevator will be in great peril The
steamer st. Paul was mooFed at the ele-
vator, She had to leave, but being light,
she dared not go to sea, and so started for
| the canal, but her wheel became entangled
in the ropes and tim Der, SO she was beached
near the Citizens dock Her rudder is
| gone, otherwise she has suffered no serious
| injury as yet, and as the storm has nearly
abated she may be safe. Schooner Alice
| Craig, of Bayfield,, was smashed all to-
| pieces. The schooner Francis Palmer, of
| Detroit 800 tons COAL first trip, brand new
| has broken her back and will be a complete
| wreck. The schooner Sweetheart will not
| be very seriously bagged, unless she wears
| hole IN her bottom on the sand. The cap
/ tain OF the Sweetheart says if there had
| been towers on the end of the canal piers
| he could easily have gone through the canal.

Heretofore Galveston has been the outlet

Il is well known that the European trade
of this part of the South goes mainly TO
| Now Orleans. Vessels 90 there loaded with
merchandise, when they come to CALVES
ton, seldom, and then almost in ballast to
carry carr our cotton to Europe. Our interior
merchants have been compelled to pay trl-
butte to Galveston, to their great detriment,
by shipping their cotton there but very
soon, after this connection is made, they can
ship it to New Orleans as cheaply as here
tofore they have done to Galveston, and
secure better prices for it; And then r 1nere
ton goods cheaper and on better terms than
they ? can buy them at Galveston. And in
case they wish to ship cotton to Europe,
New Orleans will give them better and
cheaper facilities than Galveston has ever
| done.
We only ask our interior merchants to
note the result and judge for themselves as
to what we say. Nor is this all but the
time is near by when Houston will pay bet
ter prices for cotton, and sell cheaper goods
and on better terms, than Galveston has
ever done. Wait, watch and judge.

Enigfants,

The President, in bis annual message,
will devote special attention to the question
OF q better protection TO emigranrs. The
Treasury Department long since made the
discovery tina. the laws relating to this sub
iect were insufficient, and a report from
this department., together with a bill 10
regulate the matters complained of, was
laid before the last Congress. The bill has
been most carefully considered, and IS
solely designed to secure good treatment
and food tp emigrants on board ship, and
safe, cheap and speedy transportation on
railways. The bill failed only because of
the press OF business last session, and the
prominence given 80 matters ii political
nature.

The supreme Bench Vacancy,

a Washington special to the Cincinnati
Enquirer says:
The expected vacancy on the Supreme
bench, contingent upon the retirement OF
Judge Nelson, develops the usual amount
of candidates. The United States Senate
has at least three members, Conkling, Howe
and Edmunds. who have long had aspira-
lions in this direction. Unfortunately,
however, these gentlemen fall within con-
stitutional prohibition, they having been in
Congress while the salary of the office was
increased. The South comes to the front
with formidable list, such as Judge Du-
rant, of Louisiana, Judge Bond, OF Mary
land, and Settle, Of North Carolina. Judge
Garter, of the District Supreme Court here,
has long been an asplrant in this direction
and he is sanguine enough to believe that
the friendship Of the President for him is
strong enough to make his own appoint
ment foregone conclusion. 1t may be CON
fidently asserted that no Southern man Will
receive this appointment, as the circuit
over which this Judge presides is the most
important in the North, and the selection
will undoubtedly be largely influenced by
the wishes of the New York bar, which Is
the most directly interested in Nelson's sue
ppSSOT.

The Chicago Times has this incident Of
the hippophalgia;
Recently a well-dressed gentleman ar
rived by train at the Michigan Southern
railroad depot. One solitary express wagon,
with an epizootical animal attached, was in
waiting. The gentleman had a trunk, such
as persons Of afiuence usually take with
them when they go abroad. He demanded
OF Jehu what amount of lucre would be
necessary to secure the transportation of
the trunk to the Northwestern depot Three
dollars was the price, and not cent less
would the mercenary wretch take for the
tritlng service. Our traveller had been
abroad before, and his maternal ancestor
evidently knew that he had gone forth An
idea struck him with gentle force. After
offering s. for the service, and being unwil-
ling to submit to an extortion, he walked
up Lake street few blocks, and purchased
a wheel-barrow for 81 50, Into tits vehicle
he placed his trunk, and propelled it to the
place of his decentralization, thereby saving
81 so and having serviceable wReel-bar,
row on hand. The affair was witnessed by
several prominent railroad officials.

Railroad interruption.

WASHINGTON, November l9-The tearing

destroys tho only all-gail connection be

Through a singular complication Of own
ership and use Of roads, the property de-
stroved was owned and controlled by the
Scott interest. while the actual sufferers by
the interruption Of business are Garrett and
his friends OF the Southern roads. Freight
business by way OF this city is seriously i'm
peded for the present, and to-day 1000 cat
lie are at Alexandria awaiting transpoPta-
ton northward The responsibility of tear
ing mp the track rests with the board Of
public works, whose action relieves Secre.

by which the removal could be effected

a Telegraph Stofys

think the most curious fact. taken alto
rethef. that ] have heard OF the electric
telegraph, was told me by cashier Of the
Bank OF England. "Once upon a time"
then, on certain Saturday night, the folks
at the bank could not make the balance
come right by just fI00. This is serious
matter in that little establishment do
not mean the cash, but the mistake in arlth.
metic, for it occasions q world of scrutiny.
An error in balancing has been known,
am told, TO keep a delegation of clerks from
each Office at work sometimes through the
whole night A hue and cry was of course
made after this Gl00, as if the old lady in
ThreadneedIe street would be in the gazette
for want of it. Luckily, on Sunday morn
ing, clerk lin the middle Of the sermon, !
dare say, if the truth were known felt d
suspicion of the truth dart through his
mind quicker than any flash Of the electric
telegraph itself He told the chief cashier
on Monday morning that. perhaps, the mis-
take might have occurred in packing some
boxes of specie for the West Indies. which
had been sent to southampton for shipment.
The suggestion was Immediately acted upon.
Here was race, lightning against steam,
with eight and forty hours start given.
Instantly the wires asked Whether such
vessel had left the harbor." just weigh
ing anchor was the answer. stop her"
frantically shouted the electric telegraph.
1t was dOnes % Have up on deck certain
boxes marked so and so weigh them care
fully" They were weighed and one-the
delinQuent-was found by Just one packet
of hundred soyereigns heavier than it
ought to be. Let her go" said the mys-
terious telegraph. The West India folk
we're debted with Gl0G more, and the error
was corrected without ever looking into the
boxes, or delaying the voyage an hour.
Now. that is what is called doing
