The increased steam facilities to New York

We are glad to inforp our readers that
the IRON FLOATING Dock is now near
completion. For the last three years we
have watched with interest its dismember-
ment and reconstruction which must have
been a very laborious job..-...The Dock
now consists of five pontoons only, instead
OF SIX as originally ; but we understand
that the Company intend, at q future time,
to repair the remaining pontoon and add
1t to the structure. We confidently hope
that this will be done ere long, as the
Dock ought to be, in case of need, capable
OF taking the large transatlantic ships that
visit our harbour, as we'll as the men-of-
war of different nations. The present
length of the Dock is ESQ feet, and is more
than sufficient for taking in the largest of
the Royal Mail C~ompany's inter-colonial
ships, and is equal to lifting a dead weight
of about 1900 tons Some u%nimportant
work still remains to be done, but the
whole OF the machinery has been tried, and

A NEW HORSE MALADY.-A phenom-
enon in the disease of horses made its
appearance in this city on Wednesday
last Il is not the epizootic. though
like it in many respects. 1t is of
milder form, and temporary in its at
tacks. The symptoms are mild cough,
accompanied at times by Inflammation
of the throat, frequent sneezing, and oc-
casioDally a discharge at the nose. With
few exceptions its victims all eat well
and work without interruption. Every
car and stage line has felt its influence,
and it is safe to say that not one humid
red horses in the city have escaped.
The race horses at Boston and else
where are suffering from it. and the
Messrs. Johnson Brothers, proprietOrs
of Fleetwood Park, have withdrawn
their purses on account of it. All the
stock at their park have been
attacked by it. Fifteen hundred out Of
two thousand horses in the Third ave
nue. stables were coughing and sneezing
on Friday last Ten thousand horses
among the stage and car lines alone are
suffering from it. On Saturday last the
truck horses in Hoboken were unable to
work on account of it. Superindent
Bidgood of the Sixth Avenue line of
cars, says, alt came like a fash of
lightning, striking every horse in the
city. and as quickly passed away, leay-
ing its effects behind it" All seem to
think it short lived, horses having i'm
proved since Saturday.-N 7. San,

MAN OVERHEARD.

As the Lake Champlain Steamer Ad-
irondack was on her way North, Wed
nesday afternoon, about midway between
Burlington and Port Kent, the attention
of some of the passengers was aroused
by splash in the water and a moment
after man was discovered in the water
astern, apparently struggling to reach
Valise which was floating few feet far
ther in the rear. He was seen to reach
and clutch the valise and place it under
his arms as if for support; but soon dis
appeared from sight. The steamer was
stopped as soon as possible, and small
boat manned and sent to the rescue bnt
the steamer had made considerable dis
lance meanwhile, and the only result of
the search was to find hat floating in
the wake of the steamer, mile astern:
The steamer Bascom came up while the
search was in progress and aided in it /;
but no more trace could be discovered
of the drowned man. Who he was is
not known. The boat being unusually
crowded, the names of all the passengers
were not taken, and no one known to
be on board is missed. The hat is a
common black, soft hat, of rather small
size. An oVercoat of dark cloth, with
beaver collar, was found on the boat,
which is supposed to have belonged to
the lost man The articles may yet
lead to the discovery of his name and
residence. 1t is thought that he came
on the boat south of Burlington. A
Port Henry passenger was of the impress
sion that it might have been runner
for clothing house. Another passen-
ger thought the man seen in the water,
resembled man he saw talking to a
woman, on the wharf at Burlington,
just before the steamer left. But really
nothing like definite clue to the mis-.
sing man can be found.
