Monday, the lSth inst, which continued
until 10p. N. of the 10th, when 1t cleared
of. The ship was run at about half speed
during the log, and the steam whistle kept
blowing at intervals OF about FIVE min
utes. On Tuesday morning, at about s :25,
the ship came in collision with an i'm.
nerse iceberg, which carried away the
jibboom, bowsprit, fgurehead and all
gear attached, and 4stoyenin the bow,
breaking the iron plates, deck plank
ing, iron railing. &c. Many tons Of
ice fell upon the forecastle deck, break
ing II through and going down into the
hold. The two men on the lookout had q
very narrow escape with their lives, the
fog being so thick ats the time that they
could NOT see the iceberg until II came
tumbling on the forward deck, where they
were standing, which caused them TO run
for their lives.
0At the time Of the shock, chief officer
Tarleton and second officer Barker were
on. duty on the bridge, and with great
promptness Mr. Barker rushed to the bow
Of the ship TO ascertain whether the
ship was cut through below the water
lines, at tho same time giving
orders to cut away the lashings Of the
life rats and boats, and to prepare them
forlowerinG In case the ship should sink.

TO CONTINUE
THROUGHOUT THE WEEK,

We will commence a Bargain Sale in which
the most tempting array Of bargains ever
placed before any people will be presented
for the inspection Of the Wheeling public.
A universal depression in business and
an oyerproduction has 50 deprecated
values that tirstclass and thoroughly re-
liable merchandise never was as cheap as
now, and the wide-axake merchant even
in these sleepy days can in almost every
instance own his own. goods at his own
figures. Taking advantage of this condi-
ton Of the markets, our buyers have been
on the alert and have made heavy and
extraordinary purchases Of seasonable
goods upon such favorable terms that we
are enabled to quote the astonishing aud
extremely low prices below, and to turn
what has been an importer and manu-
facturers' loss into a handsome profit for
our customers.

New York still holds the lead in the

Providence comes next, being a triHe

Review the Causes Which Led to the Out
break of the Fever.
WASHINGTON, May 2S.-The New York
Medical Journal Of to-day prints report
from two distinguished physicians and
chemists in regard to the terrible epidemic
Of typheid fever at Plymouth, Pa. The
following extracts are Of general import
ance: 5s
The principal facts in the history Of the
epidemic are briefly as follows: The town
OF about 5000 inhabitants Is supplied
with water from mountain stream or
dinarily small, but undergoing at times
great variation in volume. This Is stored
in four reservoirs, or dams, situated one
above the other on the stream. AT Ger:
tain seasons Of the year the supply OF
water from this source Is not sufficient for
the town and recourse Is had to the river
water, which is then pumped directly into
the mains. In the latter part Of March
the water in this htream was almost en-
tirely frozen up, the reservoirs were very
low, and on March 20 the water company
commenced pumping river water into the
main. A portion OF the town, however, was
still supplied by water from the reservoir.
On the evening OF March 20, the pumps
wero stopped, and the water from the res
etyoirs was again turned on. At this
tins tha two lower reservoirs were empty,
and the third was less than half full, con-
tanning perhaps four hundred Thousand
GALLONS. On the stream above the first
raaarrnir there ara Int two houses The
first il situated on the bank Of the. upper
or fourth reservoir. andthe second known
as the Davis house, on the bank Of the
stream connecting The third and fourth,
Immediately below the dam.

l
INDIANAPOLIS, May 2S.-The local De
mocracy to the number Of q thousand ,ol
more, headed by two brass bands and the
Rice Zouayes, marched TO the residence ol
Vice President Hendricks tonight and
serenaded him. He had stayed in Wash.
ington six weeks longer than his Official
duties demanded for the sole purpose oi
helping his friends secnre positions under
the, Government TO which they were
rightfully entitled, and for this he had
been severely criticised by the papers,
which said that was not becoming OF
common in a Vice President to take such
action.
He wanted TO know II there was any
Office SO high that he who was honored by
being placed in 1t should not help those
Sho had thus honored him. Hewanted
to niSke return to the people Of Indiana
for what they had done for him, and for
this reason he had done and intended
still to do Whist he could to get his Demo
cratic friend In offiIe, on utterance which
created much enthusiasm, II he makes
any mistakes in this direction 1t would be
In the way Of earnestness. Regard.
ing changes in the offices, he said
It was o patriotic sentiment that de-
manded It. The Democrats were beaten
twenty-fSeyear ago. and they gave up
their offices; now they had won and
should have them back, and when another
party came into power they would give
them up again. fhs administration was
moving slowly in this direction, more so
perhaps than the party tho 7ght was right,
but great many changes would BE made,
and those who wanted places must be
content to wait. In conclusion he dis
claimed any aspirations for higher place
than that,vbich he now holds.
