A terrible disaster has oyerfaken the City
Of Szegedin, the capital Of the County OF
Czongrad, and the secon commercial town
in Hungary. The city is built on the right
bank Of the River Thesis, md opposite the
mouth Of the River Maros. 1t stands or a
marshy plain. and the river i crossed by a
bridge of boats. Three dams protected the
city from the overflow Of the river. The
recent high water had washed away two OF
these dams, and a large force OF work
men had been engaged TO strengthen the re-
naming one. On the morning OF the 18th,
however, after a night OF fearful anxiefy,thc
pressure Of the water forced the sole barrier
asunder, and the lower portion OF the city,
comprising about two-thirds OF the whole,
was instantly submerged. A large number
Of persons, failing 10 escape, were drowned.
Many houses were destroyed. The full ex-
tent OF the calamity can not be known until
the water subsidies.
A correspondent at Pesth. on the 18th,
summarizing official and private accounts
from szegedin, says the dead must amount
TO many hundreds. II is impossible 10 make
a close estimate, as the number buried un-
der the ruins can not yet be ascertaincd.
The houses, built Of sun-dried bricks, con-
tinued 70 collapse long after the first
thrush OF the Hood. The work II feeding
and removing the sufferers was proceeding
with the greatest order. Six steamers and
20 tugs had left Pesth for szegcdin, and the
Hungarian Minister Of Finance had for
warded 10000 forms in aid Of the desti-
tute.
An official statement shows that OF 300
houses in Szegedin all except 264 have been
destroyed. Most Of the habitations destroy
ed We're Of the lower classes OF Do uIation.
The loss Of life il vsriously estimated 4 not
less than 1000, while many think II will
reach 400 or even GOO.

Extension Of the Telephone system,

An admirable system Of local tele-
pone communication, says the Spring.
field (Alnss.) Republican, il 20 be intro
duced in this city by the District Tele-
phone and Automatic Signal Company
of New Haven, ct. This is a company
incorporated under the laws Of Con
necticut for the purpose Of owning and
operating the district telephone In six
cities, New Havan, Springfield, Hart
ford, MerideH, Middletown and New
Britain. In three Of these places the
system is already established and in
successful working order, New Haven
furnishing $50 stations, Hartford, where
the company began business only six
weeks ago, $50, and Meriden %. The
charge Tor every residence or place Of
business using the telepone j. S22 a
year, which covers communication night
or day with any point in the circuit.
Several lines Of wire are carried v
the city according to the localities TO be
taken in, and these are connected
through a central Office, the user being
allowed three minutes tins for his mes
sage. In the other cities the existing
private lines have mostly been console
dated with this general service, and such
will no doubt be the case here, even the
Holyoke line being perhaps merged into
the new company. The convenience Of
this plan Of quick local communication
can hardly be overestimated. II an
swers all the purposes Of the distri.t
telegraph, and does q great deal more,
connecting business men with their
homes, merchants with their customers,
and generally facilitating the ransac-
