James Madison and Martin Eehols are the

Bride the Uhas. Morgan's pilots. In regard
to the collision between the Bostona and tow
boat Sam. Miller, the particulars, as we get
them, are as follows: The Bostona
blew one whistle, which indicated
that she would take the Ken
lucky side, and that the sam.
Miller should take the Ohio side, but, instead
of complying with the Bostonas signal, the
Miller took the Kentucky side also, conse-
the Bostona was sunk. This is the first acci-
dent that the Cincinnati, Portsmouth, Big
Sandy and Pomeroy Packet Company's
steamers have ever met with, and in
this case appearances indicate, that the
Bostona was not in fault. The James How
ard reshipped her Ohio River freight on barges
and turned backed at Cairo. Commodore
Kountz's new mountain boat, now being built
at Pittshurg, is to be named General Custer.

Mere Wind.

At the meeting OF the Aldermanic
Board, last night, an ordinance from the
Board OF Public Works to appropriate
SIG. .294 55 for Water-works purposes was
read. This aroused the suspicion of Mr..
Dicks, VINO made long and violent at
tack on the Board OF Public Works. 1t
was not pointed in its charges, but was
a general complaint that the Board of
Aldermen does not know wnat this
money is appropriated for. He did not
want to sit here like blockhead or a
lamb, but he wanted to know whether
the money is spent in proper manner.
The City Solicitor was called in to say
whether The Board of Public Works was
OBJ iged to send iu an itemiZed account.
The Solicitor said the Board ought to
indicate the specific purpose for wnch
the money was to be expended. Upon
this MIR. Dicks made another speech.
At its conclusion Mr.. Winkler said
Mr.. Dicks ought to make definite
charges, if he had any, against the
Board, otherwise his speech was mere
wind.
The ordinance was engrossed and
passed, nobody voting in The negative
except Mr.. Dicks.

He probably hadn't had his inner man
cheered by square meal since last fall.
His toilet apparently was made in a
hurry. and his face bore evidence OF
having frequently come III contact with
the atmosphere of a coke-oven. The
cnarge was vagrancy.
AS he bounced out this morning His
Honor eyed him with suspicion and
said:
"They say you have no home, Mr..
Lane; that you are what the boys call a
Lunch Fiend, and that you bunk on the
soft side oil Market-house stalls. You
do look little seedy, that's fact."

search during a somewhat erratic ca
reer, that poverty is dishonoraole. 1t is

"I do, sir, but l claim that there are
extenuating circumstances surrounding

cashier, eh? Is that the troubleW
"No, sir. My poverty is due to nv
my forte. 1 have tackled every thing
that has turned up. Have been a CLERK

recently visited the States, Mr.. Barclay
Tor example, Member for F0rfarshire, say
The trade Will become a very great one, and
VIII reduce the price paid 10 the grazier by
a penny a pound all round. That is a very
serious loss, which he thinks must be met
by a complete removal of the restrictions
now pressing upon leaseholders. That
removal may be a good thing, but we
should Ike a little more evidence as to the
fail IN price. Has it fallen ? Meat is certain
y 10 cheaper in London, end we suspect
the import will have to grow enormously
before either farmer or consumer knows
that it has occurred. With every decline
OF a penny a pound, a new class begins to
eat meat, till the demand sends up the
price again.
