VAN NIISTHANH'S HALL, The propellor Mohawk, which arrived at Detroit on Friday morning, brought intelle- ‘gen'ce of‘the most terrible marine disaster ‘which has occured on the lakes for many years. About half-past eight o’clock, on the evening of Wednesday, the 9th instant, the. propeller Pewabic, of the‘Lake Superior line, witha large load of passengers and freight’ou board, collided with the propellor Meteor, of the same line, upward bound, while off Thunder Bay, Lake Huron. The Pewabic had on board about 175 passengers and crew. Of these 75 passengers and 23 crew were saved, the others are lost. The accident occured about six miles off Thunder Bay Light, which was clearly visible. It was scarcely dark, and the boats saw each other when six miles apart. When approach- ingthey exchanged the usual signals and the Pewabic bore off to pass, fire Meteor, for some unexplained reason, rned in the, same direction, and struck the Pewabic as above stated. The Meteor stopped, and immediately lowered her small boats, to res- cue the passengers of the. ill fated Pewabie. The latter was heavily loaded, as will be seen by her cargo, which was as follows :â€"- 45 tons of- copper, Ontonagon; 25 tons of copper, Eagle Harbour; 135 tons, Quincy Mine, 65 tons Portage Stamp Works ;. 175 tons iron ore, Marquette; 200 sh'ip- knees; 250 half barrels fish; 27 rolls leath- er 5 10 tons miscellaneous freight.- Tho"Pewabic run into by the Meteor ‘ > in Thunder Bay. ‘ - A NOVELTY m RAILROAD RsrnEsnMsNrs. -â€"-A gentleman travelling on the continent sends to the London Times a note regarding a plan adopted at Vesoul, a railway station in France, which he recommends to the re- stumnts in British stations, and which might perhaps be copied with advantage in this country. No trains stop long at Vesoul, ut “‘M the travelers” are informed by lentit‘ul advertisements that if they wish either to breakfast or dine they will find hot meals in baskets at the buffet. The meals are composed of three dishes, half a bottle of wine, bread and dessert. The passengers leave the empty basket and dishes" half an ‘hour‘ later at the next station, and pay two francs fifty centimes, or about fifty cents in American currency, for their leisurely and comfortable repast. are" A Néw Yorker has lost $46,000 at fare, at Saratoga. ' Won-m _Coxsmsmxc.-â€"Gen. Cox, the Republican candidate for Governor othio, has come to the conclusion that the mutual enmity between the whites and blocks of the South cannot be healed. Difference of races he thinks causes ’and perpetuates enmity. He proposes taking a suflicent portion ofthe territory of the Southern States for the ex- clusive use of the black, and forming ter- ritorial governments for them. A Goon PLAGIARIST.-â€"TWO friends were litening to a young preacher, whose sermon was made up of acknowledged plagiarisms. They did little else than nudge each other as one amazing crib succeeded another, until one whispered, “Look at him! I declare his very whiskers are curving into inverted commasland his face looks one entire quotw lion. ‘ ACCIDENTAL Damnâ€"A man named Henry. Crombie, aged about 45 years, Who worked loathe farm of Mr. Northcoat,‘ Lake Shore Road, met his death on Friday last "by accidentally falling from a scaffolding erectedaround a. stack of barley. ’ He' only lived about 15 hours after the accident. The unfortunate man bore an excellent character, and was much esteemed by all who knew, him.‘ Immediately after the ac- cident word was sent to Dr. Buchanan, jr., who lost no time in seeing the man; and dressing the wound, but at once pronounced ream an impossible, as the neck was dislw catedéâ€"Leadcr. Tao-m WILL Oursâ€"Once upon a. time a nobleman gave a grand supper. While the guests were at the table two maskers came into the ball, who were not much larger that children of five or six years old; one person- nted '3 lord, the other a lady. Their dress was as splendid as could be, and they danced very skilfullyY to the great diversion of the “guests. Everybody said they could not ad- mire the dexterity of these polite children enough. Then an old officer took an apple andthrew it between the dancing couple. suddenly lord and lady rushed after the apple, fighting and haggling at each other for it, as fihongh frantic. In the struggle they tore elf-each others masks, and behold ! instead Ufa couple of clever children, a couple of monkeys. All at table laughed heartily, hit the old officer said very gravel -â€"£fMon- lie 9 andfools may dress, themselyves splen- didly, but the day soon comes when it is 199v": who they are.” (From flu Detroit Free Press, Aug. 12. ) Fail WheaLâ€"lu fair demand, $| a $1 05.
