TERRIBLE DESTRUCTION Immense
damage was done in Sherbrooke, Guysboro
county, n. s., about ninety miles from
Halifax by a treshet on Wednesday last
The st. Mary's river was swollen by the
rain and thaw. A couple of miles above
Sherbrooke there is a natural dam Of rocks
across the river, beyond which for several
miles it is called Saltwater The ice on
this portion of the river broke up in coa-
sequence of the freshet and flooded the
whole OF the valley On the left bank of
tie river where Sherbrooke was situated.
the scene was a fearful one. The food
brought down thousands of tons of ice and
great numbers of logs Whole trees We're
nprooted from the banks in the course of
The torrent. The solid ice below the village
remained firm, and the flats upon which
Shelbrooke stands became boiling sea.
Boats and canoes were in demand Every
house was flooded The cattle were driven
out OF town by persons on horseback. The
women, children and aged people were
taken away in boats Many families aban-
doned their house altogether, while others
took refuge in the upper stories. Two
bridges in the village, and a large bridge
over the St. Mary's River, are gone. A
new vessel nearly ready for launching was
destroyed, and much timber carried away
Inc day after the flood, the mountains of
ice and logs, trees, and other debris, be-
came frozen solid, SO that the village is
now Embedded in frozen sea. The ruin
is indescribable it extends a mile and a
half in length by mile in breadth In
the event of a sudden thaw. the VILLAGE
will be quite destroyed

Inquiry into the LIQUOR Busine...

\ bill has passed the national Senate
providing for the appointment of a COM
mission to consist of five persons neither
of whom is to be a holder of any national
or State office, and to serve without COM
pensation Their duties are defined to be
to investigate the alcoholic and fermented
liquor traffic and manufacture, having
special reference to revenue and taxation;
in distinguishing as far as possible in the
conclusion they arrive at between the et-
feet produced by the use of distilled OF
splrltuous as distinguished from the use of
fermented or malt liquors in their econo-
mic, criminal, moral and scientific aspects.
in connection with pauperism, crime, vice,
the public health and general welfare of
the people; also to inquire and take testi-
mony as to the practical results of license
and restrictive legislation for the preyen-
ton OF intemperance in the several States,
and the effect produced by such legislation
upon the consumption of distilled or
spirituous liquors, and of fermented or
malt liquors, and also ascertain whether
the evil of drunkenness has been increased
or decreased thereby; whether the use of
opium as a stimulant and substitute for
alcoholic drink has become more general
in consequence of such legislation, and
whether the public morals have been i'm
proved thereby. Also to gather informal
ton and take testimony as to whether the
evil Of drunkenness exists to the same ex-
tent, or more 50, iii other civilized coun-
tries. and whether those nations that are
considered the most temperate in the use
of stlmulantS are so through prohibitOrv
legislation has affected the consumpti on
and manufacture of malt and spirituous
liquors in this country To secure an inn
partial report it is provided that all of the
commission shall not be advocates of
prohibitory Legislation OF of total absti-
nenec in relation to alcoholic or termented
liquors
We are glad that this inquiry has been
undertaken, and trust that the bill may
become a law, and the investigation be
strict and thorough. The honest facts and
statistics in respect to the manufacture,
sale and use OF Intoxicating liquors will
throw much needed light on this subject

When the raising OF fish by artificial
culture commands the attention Of such
gentlemen as Robert b. Roosevelt, of New
York, Alex. Kent, Of Baltimore; James
Worrall of Harrisburg; W. G.. Edmunds,
of Vermont, and many others. t may be
presumed that there is something import
ance in the subject, The above gentlemen
and more Of equal character are members
of the American Fish Culturists Associa-
ton which held its annual meeting in New
York last recently. At this meeting many
interesting facts We're told of the expert

Death Of Sumner.

The death OF Charles Sumner removes
from the theatre Of public life one Of its
most prominent men. In all public events
for the last quarter of century and more
he has played a conspicuous part, and his
departure deprivcs the Senate Of one who
always stood in the front rank of its de-
man in opinion and action, he was I'M
compromising in the long series Of parti-
san events that eliminated with the Hate
war, always ready to return threat for
threat and taunt for taunt, with those who
stood upon the extreme Of Southern SEN
timent Those who, looking back over
the wild and bloody waves Of civil strife,
perceive that temperate and conservative
action might have averted the awful ca
lamity, will credit the Massachusetts Sen
ator with large share Of that woful mis-
take which let slip the dogs Of war
But he is dead, and the dead are entitled
to be tenderly spoken OF. Mr. Summer
was an honest man. The course that he
took he firmly believed to be right, and
every public or private act was made to
bear the strictest test OF moral honesty
In all the bitterness of party strife he was
never accused OF moral derelction. And
among the many mcoverings of corrup-
ton about the national capital, was nevera
breath of suspicion raised against his per
sonal integrity His hands were absolute
ly clean.
When the civil war was over Mr. Sum
ner, with the spirit OF statesman depre-
Gated all efforts to perpetuate the memory
of its strife He declared against any
display of trophies Won by victories over
fellow citizens. HIS battle-iag resolution,
for which he was censured by the MaSsa-
chusetts Legislature. was Il measure Of
wisdom In his later wears he disagreed
with many Of the purposes Of he admins
tration, especially in its intention to acquire
San Domingo, and was, by Presidential
dictation, displaced from the position of
Chairman of the Committee On Foreign
Relations. His term would haze expired
March 4, 1873, when he woulG probably
have retired from public life
