SNOW AVALANCHE.
Houses in Quebec Crushed, Streets
Blockaded and Children Buried.

Houses in Quebec Crushed, Streets
Blockaded and Children Buried.
New YORK, Jan. GA Quebec dispatch
says that on Saturday two or three avalanches
of snow fell from the cliff beneath the Citadel;
in one instance several houses narrowly escap-
ed demolition. On Saturday Michael Huck's
house on Champlain street, was struck by an
avalanche, which forced in the back windows
and doors, passing out through the front,
smashing the furniture and partitions ON it's
way. Only the giving way of the back win
dows saved the house and inmates from de-
struction. The family were on the second fiat
which saved their lives The road in front of
the bnilding is blocked by 20 feet of snow 800
yards further up the street another avalanche
fell close to number of inhabited houses and
filled the roadway % feet deep with snow. All
the inhabitants of the street, two miles long,
are threatened with the same danger, and con-
sternation exists, some of them leaving their
homes and others are afraid to go to bed.
Three children, eight years old, while sliding
near Waller street, were suddenly buried be-
meath another snow slide.o Saturday evening
to depth of II feet. The most exciting search
was made for them, but over ten minutes were
occupied in digging them out, all three being
found alive, but perfectly black in color and
unconscious. All will recover.

Fire ON Cedar Street.

About half-past two o'clock this morning fire
broke out in the two story house with ell at
No. 48 Cedar street, owned and occupied by
Capt John Armstrong. Capt. Armstrong had
been up with sick child, and had been abed
but about half an hour when one of his chill
dren who slept up stairs came down to his
room and said her room was filled with smoke.
He went up, aid finding the smoke very dense
and suffocating, ran out and struck the alarm
at box 26. The engines were soon on the spot
and the fire was extinguished in short time,
though not before the upper story was burned
out and the whole house drenched with water.
A part of the furniture was got out in a dam
aged condition. There was an insurance on
the house of $500 in the Hartford at the
agency of W. D. Little & Co., and $500 on the
furniture, which will cover the loss. The fire
probably took fire around the chimney. The
same house was partly burned last June.

TUESDAY MORNING., JANUAAY %.

keen themselves out of the way OF finding out
anything about the actual situation of affairs
They read the newspapers, and curiously
enough they appear to have accepted every
wild story and random accusation made against
officials with as much eredulity as if the same
had actually been substantiated by reliable
proofs. It isnot so amazing perhaps that the
professors OF Yale aud Amherst should take
respondent view of public morality. 1t is
part of their religious creed to distrust the VIZ
tue of unregenerate mortals But 1t IS not SO
easy to comprehend why the Unitarian cole
gians of Cambridge should entertain an equally
unfavorable estimate of the integrity of that
portion of the human family from whom the
American Republic as rule selects its conf
Dental servants. Unless the sentiments of our
new Ambassador have undergone wholesome
change it will be one of his occupations to tell
the English aristocracy how little this country
deserves the praises bestowed upon it by Glad
stone and Bright. He will represent to them
that so far from being the land of promise the
great liberal leaders have so glowngly described,
it much more nearly resembles the ancient
cities of the plain that were destroyed as pun
tants. 1t is to be hoped that his experiences of
diplomatic life have led him TO form more
charitable judgment respecting his fellow
citizens on this side of the Atlantic. The OPP
portunity Of contrasting his own government
with those of other nations can hardly fail to
have impressed him with profound convic-
ton that it compares favorably with the best OF
them. And surely no man can be charged
with extreme optimism who recognizes the
marvellous improvement that has been
wrought in the social and political condition
of the United States within the thirty years
that have elapsed since the gifted author of the
"Biglow Papers lent his graceful and vigor-
Gus pen to the great work of extirpating the
evils when these disfgured our civil system.
The achievements of the past are the best
possible auguries of advancement in the future,
and he can best serve the state whose mind is
animated by unwavering faith that the main
tenance of free institutions will best conserve
the welfare of the human race.

made in behalf of the ex-President, conclusive

for the Presidential nomination. 1t is given

Stealing Strikers Funds.

CHICAGO, Jan. 6.-There is likely to be a
lively row in the Butchers Union over the
funds collected to carry on the recent strike.
Twelve thousand dollars were collected and
the officers of the Union can only account for
less than $4,000. They charge that Frank Omara
one of the relief committe, has absconded with
the remainder. Patrick WEIGH, chairman of
the committee, says Omara was made the
scapegoat of the President of the Union, its
Orator and its Financial Secretly who are really
those who stole the $1,000. 8
