continue quite large; 2l5,DO0 pounds have
been disposed Of during the past week, prin-
cipally at 1 10 j3c for supers. Some very
choice Eastern s1qers have been sold rs high
as 56g51 sc per pound, but these are eX-
treme figures and only obtained for fancy

Cumbing pulled is in demand, with sales of

MACAULAE'5 TRIBUTE TO THE MoTH-
ER.-Children, look in those eyes, lis
ten to that dear voice, notice the feel
ing of even a single touch that is bC-
slowed upon you by that gentle hand.
Make much of it while yet you have
that most precious Of all good gifts, a
loving mother. Read the unfathoma.
BILE love in those eyes the kind anxi-
ETY. in that tone and look, however
slight your pain. In after life you
may have friends, and fond, dear, kind
friends. but never will you have again
the inexpressible love and gentleness
lavished upon you which mother be-
slows. Often do | sigh in my strug-
gIes with the hard, uncaring world,
for the sweet, deep security felt
when, Of an evening, nesting in her
bosom, | listened to some quiet tale,
suitable to my age, read in her untir-
ing voice. Never can l forget her
sweet glances cast upon me when |
appeared asleep; never her kiss of
peace at night. Years have passed
since we laid her beside my father in
the old churchyard yet still her voice
whispers from the grave and her eye
watches over me as visit spots long
since hallowed TO the memory of my
mother.

SORROWING HOUSEHOLDS. - Not a
hearthstone shall you find on which
some shadow has not fallen, or Is
about to fall. Further than this, you
will probably find that there are but
few households that DO not cherish
some sorrow not known TO the world;
who have not some trial which is their
peculiar messenger, and which they
do not talk about, except among
themselves some hope that has been
blasted come expectation dashed
down; some wrong, real or supposed,
which some member of the household
has suffered trembling anxieties lest
the other members viii not succeed
trials from the peculiar temperament
OF somebody in the house, or some
environment that touches It sharply
from without; some thorn in the flesh;
some physical disability that cripples
our energies when we want TO use
them The most some spot In the house
where death has left his track, or
painful Iistenings to hear his SteslthY
footsteps coming on,-Dr. Sears.

THOSE KILLED.

At present writing It is difficult matter to
determine the exact number of persons who
lost their lives by reason OF this terrible catas-
trophe. As near as could possibly be ascer-
tanned the number Of killed or missing is SIX /;
Captain Daniel McGill, J. d. Jockey, the
unrser, George Warner, the fireman, james
Smith, John Cosgrove and John Crowley.
The three last mentioned were deck-hands.
Captain McGill was at the wheel when the
explosion occurred. The pilot-house was
blown into fragments, and scattered far and
wide over the waters. Persons state that they
observed a man who was blown high in the
air fall some distance away from the wreck,
and that after the person reached the water he
was seen 10 struggle for moment, as If en-
deavoring 70 cling 10 some fragments Of the
wreck, and then sink from sight. There can
be but little doubt that it was poor old Captain
q" Dan" as not the slightest trace has been
discovered OF him since the explosion. Subse-
oueutly the pilot wheel was recovered. but
nearly half Of it was blown away. Under
such circumstances there would be little
chance for a mans life who Was holding 10 il.
Capt. McGIl had resided for many years al

long time in steambosting, and is well known
in Portland. He was q steady, quiet man.

The value OF the cotton exported from the
United States IN 1874 was S2II ~, ,5S0-or
ST. $50 less than the value of grain pro-
ducts exported, II We reckon pork, lard and
bacon as d CONDENSED form OF Indian corn.
Whisky is also condensed form OF various
grains, and a considerable portion of the
cotton crop ought to be classed under the
same head, since q great deal OF the food con-
sumed on the cotton plantations is produced
in the grain regions Of the Northwest and is
transmitted into cotton through the muscles
of the negroes. It is strictly correct, there
fore, to say that the production of grain is
the main pivot of our foreign and domestic
trade and of all our other industries The
prospects of the grain crop is thus subject
of more universal interest than any other in
the whole circle of oar material prosperity,
if interest be measured by real importance.

SpirifuaIiStic Exposure,

| Next to the Katie King manifesto.
tons no so-called communication with
the spirit world has caused so much
recent comment as the exhibitions
gwen by family named Eddy at
Chlttenden, Vermont, who were SO
thoroughly advertised by n journal 10
this city last summer. Their process
was quite simple. All their spirits
appeared in room SO dark that no
person could recognize a feature at

was separated from the stage Out

tlons, certainly by opening a boarding
house for the accommodation of thoSs
who wished to keep up 4 close ao-
quaintance with departed friends.
One efficient means by which they
guarded themselves against detection
was the care they took against sur.
prise, and their steady refusal to per-
form anywhere save at their rural
home But it seems their time had
probably come, and in this manner
An earnest believer in spiritualism,
named Westcott, lives at Fair Haven,
Vermont. Seeing the substantial pro.
fits which his faith had brought TO the
Eddys, lie secured the services of one
Chaplin, a pupil Of theirs, and opened
a spirit exhibition of his own in ar
unoccupied house on his farm. The
arrangements were precisely the same
as those of the Eddys, including the
dimly-ligLled room, cabinet, etc. Some
OF the honeSt-minded Green Mountain
boys concluded that this kind of trick
cry had gone .ar enough, and laid
plan TO expose it, Accordingly the
exhibition Of last Wednesday evening
was attended by three men, who had
prepared To find ont at any one cost
what stuff the spirits were made of
When, therefore, after the usual sound

TIE EXPLOSION,

as near as can be ascertained, was oceasioued
in the following manner: just before leaving
the o. 5. 5. Co 5 dock, the engineer, Mr. J.
Smith, set the pumps In motion. There was
abOnt 70 pounds Of steam in the boiler, and
the fire was very hot in the furnace At the
hour mentioned the boat pushed off and
started up the river. Meapti the pumps
were III motion, and the engineer supposed
they were forcing water in the boiler. But it
seems that, through some defect IN the sue
tion, the pumps failed to work. When the
boat reached the foot of Alder street, and the
engineer shut off the steam, it IS thought the
pumps began to force water into the boiler
The water IN the boiler was quite low and the
crown plate and tubes were Ted hot Instantly
the Geld water came IL contact with the boiler,
the quantity of steam generated could not be
carried off, and the pressure could not be re-
sisted, and hence the explosion Not yestise
Of the boiler remained, except the front end
of the FIRE box, which was blown forward.
The cylinder of the boiler was shiVered into
atoms and the forward part of the cabin to-n
