MARINE DISASTER.

Particulars OF the FOunderips of the
steamship Magnolia Brave Conduci
OF the Captain and the Rescuing
Party.
CHESTER, Pa, October 4.--The crew
OF the lost steamship Magnolia are
still here awaiting the return of the
captain, who left this morning to
make arrangements for their transport
tation to New York, where they live.
The men are very destitute. The first
officer says they had hard time la
getting away from the sinking vessel
to the bank, which was two miles to
the leeward. One boat containing
seven men swamped after leaving the
Magnolia, and everything was swept
overheard, the boat being builetted
around for three hours. The men
having no oars hung on the sides until
they were rescued by their comrades.
The transfer required four or Ave
hours rs the sea ran very high. All
the canvass Of the Magnolia was torn
to shreds, and 1t was impossible to
stand on deck without holding on to
some unmovable part of the vessel.
The men worked coolly and bravely.
The captain was the last to leave the
ship, and he and few others who
were with him came near being left by
the bark as It was thought the Magno-
liza had gone down, aud the men could
not be saved. The second officer,
however, prevailed on the captain of
the bark to send.outa boat, thus saving
the boat. All speak very highly Of the
brave conduct of Captain Daggett, and
OF the captain of the bark.

The New York tribune says editorl.
ally; captain Ead's views ON the
Mississippi levees ought to be known
already to the commissioner of agricul-
ture, who might have saved himself
the trouble of writing two letters to the
distinguished engineer by reading his
phamplet on the subject, published
about two years ago. In Captain Ead's
opinion the levees are only tempo
rary make.shift, because the higher
they are built, the higher will the
river raise Its bed. He thinks that the
true system is to shorten the course Of
the stream by cutting through bends,
and holds that this will not only pre-,
vent over-nows, but drain miles Of
acres Of swampy land.
1t Is not true, NJ telegraphed from
San Francisco, that Cooper, the forger,
married the daughter of Mr.. Defreise,
of this city.
The marble ceiling OF portion Of
the patent Office fell this morning,
having been loosened by fire and wa
ter. 1t sounded like cannon, causing
great alarm. No one hurt. The bust.
ness of the land office Is suspended, the
records becoming soaked from persist
ent rains. Other ceilings are expected
to fall at any moment. This prevents
any attempt to place the records in
dry rooms. The wires north are all
down.
The secretary OF the treasury, upon
the recommendation Of the commits

tobacco suits now in progress at

account of alleged violation OF the in.
