be ''hard road to travel" In
former times, we saw no such disgust

Guided to remind you that We are still
alive, and while doubtful of the Sue
cess of some of the projects proposed
by our neighbors, yet OF the effort TO
make the navigation of Black river
success to Lisbon, there cannot be the
remotest doubt. Indeed, with Pad
olson in the van, Skinner as his aid
de-camp, and q Kerr (car) already on
the route, the enterprise will soon
commend itself to the interest and res

found that theimportant and Intelligent
portion Of the community there, are
fully alive to the move, and are Wiling

in every way they can for its success.
! Nothing seems to draw their attention

Politically we have few untimely
showers, catching the people as little

ROSIN-The rosin market has been
more active for the past seven days,
and larger business has been trans
acted for the present and forward
months. The course of the market
has been more satisfactory to all con-
cerned during the week, and there is
very little opposition to buyers, while
sellers have shown less eagerness to
sell than formerly. This would indi-
cate that there is more confidence in
this article, and receivers generally,
are becoming tirmer in their opinions
and views. Buyers have held the
market firm all the week, and have
purchased all offered at So %, also
have bought largely for June at the
same figures. At the Exchange this
week there was a fair attendance daily,
and considerable sales were transact
ed. The sales for the week and the
condition of the market at different
periods of the week as reviewed, is
as follows The first day of the pres
ent week (Friday) the market opened
quiet, and very few lots were offered;
small sales of strained transpired at
50 25. Saturday there was slight
firmer feeling exhibited, and 81 25 was
offered for all the receipts and stock in
first hands, but only 1000 bbls could
be reached Monday there was very
little Zone in the market, as the inter
est was conferred in the report of stocks
which were taken this day. Tuesday
the market opened frm-unlimited
orders were given for spot, June and

TAR-The radical falling off of the
visible supply during the past week
and the diminishing receipts at our
port has caused better feeling to per-
wade in the market for this article. In
the early part of the week. the market

Monday, however. frnness sprang
up and the market was advanced to

SCENES AND INCIDEyTs.

It was singular to see how buildings
were absolutely pulveciZed IN gong
down the stream. Large house were
reduced in a short time to debris, no
two boards remaining together. The
violence of the torrent was also shown
the flood was stripped of its bark,
while the remains of nearly oil the NC
TINS were stripped of their clothing
and horribly mangled. One, heaales Is
trunk of a man was RECOVERED, fright
full sight. One farmer found his
horses aliye in the stable after the
food, with only their heads sticking
M out of the mud and water: Ryan
MOI ans tenement on Main street, ~
Leeds, was one of the few that DID NOT
90 off. but it was flooded TO the second
Story. Six children were h1lddled TO-
nether behind bed in the chamb er,
with the water up to their necks.,
They we're all numb and half dead
but were all right after good rub
bling.
