MoRE TRoUBLE AT CLEYELANp.

The steamer Oscar Townsend came in
SATURDAY. about noon, and at noon yeSter-
day had not been able to reach her dock.
She is drawing fourteen and a half feet of
water and has had the assistance of two
tugs with the result above stated. If the
city authorities desire to encourage vessel
men to come here in preference to AShta-
tabula or Fairport it behooYes them to
spend a little more money in dredging the
old river bed, so that vessels of the largest
class can get in without trouble. 1t is
claimed that the Townsend is on log,
which raises her twelve or fifteen inches
out of the water. Her owners who have to
foot the tug bills, are slightly disgusted.
Cleveland Herald.
The Oscar Townsend was finally released
yesterday after about 200 tons of her ore
was lightered.
The schooner Ed Kelly went aground
Saturday night close to the sunken CRIB at
the Wiley street bridge, and did not get
off till Sunday forenoon. Attention has
heretofore been called to this crib, which
is Obstructing navigation. There is great
complaint Of lack Of water in the river bed,
and at the Wiley street bridge particular
water in the south channel there, and the
north channel is partially blocked up by
this crib. CleUeI0Rd Leader.
Notice is here by given that a black iron
buoy has been placed to mark a reef in
Lake Erie, lying about midway between
South Bass Island and Scott's Point. The
buoy stands in fourteen feet of water on the
north side of the reef, and is one mile W.
S. W. from the Starve Island reef buoy.
A spot on this reef, close to the buoy, has
recently been shOaled to six feet by iron
ore thrown overheard. The old channel
at Port Clinton, O., having been re-opened,
has been marked by six red spar buoys.
Steer from buoy to buoy. passing them on
the port ride. The channel is narrow, and
but five and one-half feet can be carried in.
A black spar buoy has been placed to mark
the east side Of the ''cut" through the bar
off the Ashtabula, O., harbor piers; the
buoy stands in thirteen feet of water, and
is nearly opposite the red buoy marking
the opposite side of the cut.

suspicion points to two well appearing

Mr.. WIZ. HUMPHREY.-The attack of

here. He began business at the Harbor

a point for the stopping of passing boats.
He was extensively known as a man of
sound Judgment and successful in his busi-,
ness transactions, which we're somewhat
extensive. he has been identified with
the enterprises and business interests of
the place. Though eccentric in manner he
was always on the side Of right and justice,
and his honesty and integrity were never
questioned. He had kind heart, and
was not known to turn away from appeals
to his sympathy and assistance. The poor
seldom failed to find in him a generous
friend. His departure will be loss to the
community. The funeral was largely at

TyrHoID-FEyER. GERMS DIscovERED IN
IoR-- How THEY GET THERE.--About eight
years since, Dir. Flint, who has studied and
written q great deal on the subject, became
satisfied that source of typhoid.fever existed
whore little dreamed OF, and which at
first thought, wodld seem impossible. This
source, as he then enuncatcd to- bis home
medical society land not to his knowledge
having been before suggested, is found in ice.
If this idea is thoroughly investigated it win
not appear lobe very problematical In the
first place the poison is not destroyed or i'm
paired by freezing Some one long ago remark
ed that Ice often masks Or conceas what 1t
does not kill. Now, whence comes our Ice
supply r Often fromshallow reservoirssin the
midst of neighborhoods Of large towns, pur-
posely made to receive snrface-d drainage from
all around, under the erroneous idea Chat no
harm will ensue, as freezing is supposed TO
purify and render harmless what might other
wise be Objectionable. Great quantities of
ice are taken from canals, from Greeks from
stagnant ponds, and from streams that arc
either the natural or artificial recipients of
surface-drainage, Of the outpoulings of sewers
and of uncleanliness from various sources. -
The danger of ice taken from improper places
is not only from that which Is drunk, but from
It's use in refrigerators and preservatores
| where milk, butter, fruits, vegetables, and
meats are subjected to its saturating influence
as it saporizes. Several instances have fallen
under the Doctor observation where the dis
ease by most carful investigation, could not
be traced to any other source; and If we ac-
cept as a'fact the statement positively made
by Bud IN the London Lancet, in July, 1859,
that IL never originates-ds ,soco, but proceeds
from a special and specific poison, which Is
capable Of diffusion 70 a great extent, and
which preserves its toxious qualities for a
long period, even if buried for many months,
we cannot reject the hypothesis Of ice-infec-
tioh and it is hoped that 1t win be made the
subject of very thorough and careful invests
