A GUST OF WIND.
Blows Over and Demolishes The
AlbriglltsYiIlle Bridge.

On Monday evening near CLOCK,
the large wooden bridge, spanning
Cheat River at Albrightsyillc, was
lifted from the abntmonts by heavy
gust of wind and thrown TO the water
below. The wind had been blowing
hard up the river for some time pre-
yious, and the streets Of Albrights-
vile were filled with Dust, but the
storm was not thought TO be unusual
~ severe. But ii rose to the dignity
of scyere squall between the banks
of Cheat, and the water was dashed
furiously The north side Of the
splendid bridge was struck, and the
ends Of the long wooden arches on
that side were lifted clear of the stone
on which they rested, while those on
the south side were pushed off the
masonry, loosening some of the large
stones as they went eff and the struc-
turc fell into the water obliquely, the
lower part of the south side striking
first. Falling thus inclined, the roof
was thrown up the riyer-some parts
Of it as much as fifty feet,-the large
Sxl0-inch upright pieces Of poplar
were twisted off, the powerful wood
arches were broken and unjointed, and
the whole structure is much demolish-
ed, some Of the heavy wrought-iron
bolts being badly twisted and bent
The Albrightsville bridge was con
structed in 1SG9'70, by Dan'l Mccain
of Braddoek's Field, Pa, at q cost Of
Sl2, $50, 20-$7, 028,6S of that amount
having been paid for the building of
the superstructure, and the balance
for the abutments and approaches.
Its destruction works very seri-
Gus inconvenience to nearly the whole
people Of the country; and while there
may be moro or less contention as to
the site, there win be, we fancy, no
dispute as to the necessity Of rebuild
ing the bridge as soon as possible

Campaign Against National Fraud.
A President who was NOT elected bv the
people having been inaugurated at Wash>
ington through processes o. fraud, We call
upon honest men ofall parties to rally to-
gether in a determined and persistent ef-
forts for the correction of this great wrong
and for the punishment of the guilty to be
enforced through the ballot box.
For this outrage upon the right of self>
government the Republican party and It's
chosen managers are primarily response Die;
but the men who have taken Office through
such means and who are actually exercis-
ing the power of the Government upon
such authority are scarcely less guilty than
they who conceived and executed this I'M
paralleled political swindle
The Fraudulent President and his advis-
ers having undertaken to forsake the ans
eient ways OF the Republican party; and
having invited a Democrat and former
Rebel to occupy one of the most important
offices in the Cabinet, propose to debauch
the honest public sentiment of the South
by the bestowal of Offices and by an enor-
nous system of Government Subsidies to
railroads and canals, hoping thus to cons
plete in corruption the work begun in
fraud. AT the same time with hypocrltic-
al pretences of reforming the civil service,
they hatter the vanity of Northern theorists
to the end that the great crime in which
this Administration is founded may be over

NEW YORK LETTER.
New York, April 10, 1877.

New York, April 10, 1877.
Seeing in your last call for cor
respondence from all quarters, I send
you a few notes, though l find have
not chosen a very propieious moment
to write, for if there is one thing that
will reduce ones placidness to the
vanishing point, it is q Manhattan
rain storm. 1t comes upon you with
the dynamic force of whirlwind and
the moral potentiality of London
fog.
1t has been said that "a great city
is a great poem" However well this
may apply to the classic cities of the
old world, the outward life of New
York is suggestive of the push of
American enterprise rather than Of
poetry, though indeed often unheard
amid the rattle Of its busy streets
there are the plaintiye uadertones of
rarest music. New York is essential

In the midst Of business stagnation,
panics and financial ruin, she arrays
herself in rainbow colors, smiles and
coquettes, as the world were a play
ground and all time holiday. On
single evening, not long since, the
receipts at the places of public amuse-
ment were over sixty thousand dol
lars-this, Of course, includes good
and bad. That the better class of
performers, however, are much better
supported than formerly, is certainly
a healtnful and hopeful sign, for

tolerable and even bless this life ter

Some of the latest productions of
Wagner, which attracted much atten-
ton at Bayreuth, have lately been in

connection with an English opera.
The last sweet strains of Ole Bulls

our ears, and many lesser lights are
still coming and going leaving the

gagement Of Miss Thursby Ga young
lady but little known outside Of the
city to sing for the next three sea
sons, for which she is to receive, the
moderate sum of three hundred thou
sand dollars is significant fact
showing that though there may not
be American music properly 50

ton, yet there now and then arise
singers which can at least command
a price in the worlds great marts.

WASHINGTON LETTER.


The annual, semi annual or tri- zen
NAL series of manufactured negro muir
ders in the South came up from Geor-
gia this time. Like the conjuror's
familiars, they always come when
needed. The former editors of the
National Republican here used to
get up the majority Of them, but he
went out with Grant, and is not gull
ty this time, unless, indeed, he has
gone into the business with other en-
ployers. The immediate occasion now
is of course is the fixing of the Re
publican heart in opposition to the
Presidents Southern policy. These
reports we're expected certainly, but
everybody thought the outrages
would be located in Louisiana. Still
the careful manner Of the statements
indicates that they are only parts of a
series, and those from Louisiana will
doubtless come in their order.
The dead walls of this city are
covered with placards giving extracts
from the former speeches Of Hayes,
Evarts and others, supposed to be in
conflict with their words and acts
since inauguration. They certainly
seem 10 make out clear case against
them. The tender remark of Mr..
Hayes on the night Of the election,
when he and everybody else knew
that Tilden was elected, that he ''pit-
led the poor negroes in the South" is
extensively reproduced. But Hayes
knew then, when he was mourning
over his own defeat, and he knows
now, when he is carrying out good
Democratic doctrine, that that doe
trine will be the salvation not ONLY
Of the negro, but of the white man and
OF the Republican government. The
uneasy subordinates who made him
and now rebel against him, know it.
Everybody knows it. If the Presi-
dent will keep up his amiable stub
bornness for awhile, all will acknowl
edge it, and we shall have our govern
ment administered in the interests Of
the whole people instead Of small
classes of people.
1t is evident that Secretary Eyarts
will make no enemies by reason of
his First Assistant, Seward. He is
one Of the most courteous of men, and
has q memory for faces, names and
dates that is rarely equalled. A gen
tleman who had occasion to call on
him, in relation to a small official
matter in 1867, when Mr.. S.occupied
the same position as now, was again
at the Department few DAYS since.
The Assistant Secretary recalled the
slight acquaintance of ten years ago
with as much freshness as if it mad
been matter of yesterday. If, as is
said, Mr.. Eyarts is to continue his
law practice in New York during his
term Of Office, Mr.. Seward will be in
valuable to the Office.
Three hundred employees of the
Printing Bureau, Treasury Depart
ment, mostly ladies, are dismissed
to-day. Two hundred more will 90

to be permanent reduction, and not.
like others, creation Of vacancies to

Hon. John A. Kasson goes to Spain
as Minister. Wasn't this same Kas-
son that the people of Iowa thought
of sending to Turkey or Utah, or some
such place a few years ago? 1t was
certainly man of the same name.
but perhaps Kasson has reformed.
