the steamship vIcIrsbdrR stow BY leo
and Sinks.

New YoRk. June 10 The steamship
State of Germany, which arrived thi
forenoon, brought FIVE seamen Of th'
Dominion line steamship Eicksburg
from Montreal for Liverpool, which
was sunk by ice on Tuesday, June LIST
The men were picked up June 9th
nearly dead from exposure. They
tell a fearful tale of distress. Othci
boats were launched with a large mum
Der of persons, but the greater mum
ber were seen to perish without get
ting into the boats. The VictsJury
went down in the midst Of the ice
and the boats were surrounded by ice
bergs and field ice when picked up.
The other boats have not yet been
heard from.
The five men rescued had their feet
and legs very much swollen, so much
80, that their boots had to be cut from
their feet. They are still suffering
from their great exposure, but recov-
ering as fast as could be expected.
JAMES CRowLEY's STATEMENT.
We left Quebec, May 9th, with
a crew Of 60 men and eight saloon
passengers five gentlemen and three
ladies) and about 20 in the Storage,
of whom four were females. May
Both, fell in with field of ice and
were soon surrounded. The ship
was stopped until daylight, when we
proceeded with but little ice in sight.
At $50 P. M. Monday all hands were
called to shorten sail, and the ship
was stopped amongst heavy ice. we
proceeded at full speed to get clear
Of the ice. At IL o'clock, at half
speed, we struck the ice. The ship
struck on the port quarter, carrying
away the fans Of the propellers and
hole was knocked through the plates
on that quarter, through which the
ship made a great deal of water. All
hands were then employed in heav-
ing cargo overheard. The second
officer and myself we're taken from
the cargo to clear away the boats.
The captain ordered the forward wells
sounded, and six inches Of water was
found. The captain called me on the
bridge and told me not to mind the
boats, and then called everybody and
told them TO have no fears, he could
take the ship to st. Johns. The cap
tain gave orders to launch the boats
with their respective crews, and told
them to bear in mind that the dis
tance from st. Johns was 100 miles
northwest. l proceeded to launch
No, / but it was capsized in lowering.
She was full Of water. O'Brien and
/ bailed her partly out, when Gra-
gon, Wilkinson and Williams jumped
in. We could not hang on to the
ship, owing to the sea on and the ice.
O'Brien saw the captain on the
bridge beckoning the boat back, we
having drifted 15O yards from the
ship. We saw the second officers
boat lowered and all clear, with nine
hands and himself. The ship sank
about 10 o'clock, floating boat No. 2,
with the chief officer and about
thirty people, O'Brien, after the
ship went down, saw the captain and
some persons floating on bale of
hay among the wreckage. We tried
to pick them up, but, owing to the
boat being half full Of water. were
not able to do SO. We kept compa-
ny with the other boats for about
two hours and then lost sight of
them. l think forty odd people,
with the captain, went down with
the ship.

The river is in good stage, but fall

The steamer Ohio is paying wharf
age to Gallipolis under protest, hav-
ing given notice to wharfmaster Cow
DEN on Saturday.
Negotiations were made on Friday
for the sale of the West Virginia to
Capt. THeRNBURG, of the Fleetwing,
the delivery to he made on Saturday
morning. When morning came one
of the parties backed ont, and the af-
fair will probably end in lawsuit.
The officers of the Andes are the
most polite and accommodating gen
tlemen on the river. They waited
half an hour, Wednesday evening,
for Capt. WAsHBURN, of VintOn, to
arrive with his freight. When we
travel it is always on the Andes, and
we notice that the good looking Ia
dies do also; this latter is easily ac-
counted for.

thence In the same direction across the

The last weeks issue of the CALI
.polis Journal was the filthiest pro-
duction we have seen lately.--Bafte-
tan.
Yes, that democratic testimony in
regard to democratic corruption. was
indeed filthy stuff, but our duty to
the people required its publication.
Bv the way, the editor still insists
that there is no proof that members
of the Legislature sold their votes for
800. When member, as is proven
in the case of Haag, says that there is
500 in a certain vote, how does he
know it? Simply because he has felt
it-has experienced the fact in his
own person. He can know it in no
other way. The editor belongs to
that class, who. convinced against
their will, are of the same opinion
still. Is it any wonder that the
JOURNAL is filthy when it has to han
die such n nastiness.

Our Candidate for Treasurer.

Treasurer, was born and raised in Hun

tling for home and freedom.
The writer of this has known him
from boyhood. and never knew him
guilty of mean or dishonest act, but i'm
all his walk and conversation he is one
of the purestmen / ever knew. Those
who know him best in his native town
ship and in Springfield, where he now
lives, will bear me out in all l state,
AMI but for the warm friendship of his
friends, and their confidence in his hon.
esty and ability. he could never have
been nominated. trust and helieye he
will receive the full vote of the party,
and | fully believe that no one who
gives W. w. Marrindale vote will ever
regret it. The best recommendation for
man is the respect, friendship and
confidence of his neighbors and ac-
quaintances. These excellent creden-
tials Mr.. Martindale possesses.

TO ask through the columns OF your pa

among the many readers of the .IaUR-

some items connected with the early

The Genius of history says to us, all
and each, ''that thou dOest to quickly"
like the sibyl to the ancient king, she
year by year brings with her fewer and
fewer antique records, hut unlike the
sibyl, demands for them an ever in

DEMOCRACY fourishes and in
creases most rapidly where the de
moralization of the people is greatest.
For example, we have only to cite to
the increase of the whiskey shops
and houses of prostitution in the
First Ward of this city, for the past
few years. to show proportionate in
crease in the democratic vote. The
other wards of our city are compare
lively free from these immoral infiu
ences, hence the large Republican
majorities.
