The heavy rains of last week have proved
extreamly disastrous in the vicinity Of
Chippewa Falls and Eau Claire, and an
immense amount of damage has been done
on the rivers. The destruction to milling
and other property is unprecedented. At
Chippewa Falls, on Sunday, heavy rise
in the river broke big log jam of some
125, 0O0. 900 feet, and this immense mass
swept everything before it, houses, barns,
mills, bridges, were carried down stream,
while still larger number are under water
and many seriously damaged. 1t Eau
Claire much damage has resulted from the
breaking Of an immense jam which had
been formed at the Dels dam, mainly by
logs coming down from the breaking of
booms at Chippewa Falls and ON Yellow
river. The waters released by the moving
jam, swept through the lower part Of Eau
Claire with resistless fury, carrying in their
course the wagon-bridge and many dwell.

On last Friday night, frightful calami.
ty occurred ON Long Island Sound, caused
by the collision of the steamers Narragan'
sett and Stonington. The disaster occur
red at night, and was the result of reckless
carelessness, or gross neglect on the part of
the officers. The following comments on
the distressing occurrence, is from the Pho
neer Press, and shows sad state of affairs:
The steamer Narragansett. on the New
York and StoningtOn line, was run down
by the StOningtOn, of the same line, and,
taking fire from the bursting Of u gas tank,
was burned TO the waters edge and sank.
The disaster occurred at night, when some
three hundred passengers were sleeping In
their berths, and an unknown number per.
ished miserably in the horrible confusion
that followed the striking. Many of the
passengers were women and children, and
these stood shrieking between two immi-
nent fates, death by fire and water, while
the strong men ON board made use of the
boats to save their own lives. Numbers of
women and children were drowned and
others saved in burned and mangled con.
ditiOn. The accounts given of the scenes
on the burning Narragansett are heartrend-
ing. The elumsiness that permitted the
collision was succeeded by a cOwardice and
selfshness that permitted women and chill
dren to perish while men saved themselves.
The women were permitted to remain in
their staterooms until their escape was al
most cut off. The life boats were out OF
order, and such clumsy means of escape as
there were were seized by the cowardly
men, none of whose precious lives seem to
have been in the least imperiled. The
whole number of lives lost will probably
never be known, as the passenger lists OF
the steamer were destroyed with her, and
the officers will not tell, If they know, how
many lives they have needlessly sacrificed
They belittle the loss of life to twenty per
sons. Outside rumor magnities it to fifty
which is probably nearer right of the two
though it may be exaggerated.

The following is an extract from General
Garfields speech at Madison, Wis.,, July
4th 1879, aud shows his attitude on the is
sues of the war.
We have not sought to revive the dead
issues OF the war. For one, l would be
glad if all the bitterness of that strife
should rest under the green graves of our
dead If we could initiate the peace of
God and close the difficulty as the graves
were closed over our battle fields of blood,
l, for one, would be satisfied. But, fellow
citizens, anxious as am for one, ready as
am for one, to join in friendship with
every American under the flag, North and
South, there is just one term of agreement
on which they can stand, and only one.
1t must be this: ! will join hands with no
man who does not admit that the war for
the Union was right, everlastingly and for
ever right. And that the war against the
Union was wrong-was a crime, was trea.
son, was all that deserved the thunders of
war, and the punishment of death. The
man who is willing to admit the eternal
rightlulness of ours, is my brother from
this day forward and forever; but on no
