Several gentlemen connected with the insurance companies of Milwaukee visited Port Washington to examine the wreck of the ill-fated propeller Toledo. They described the scene as an awful one, For two miles, or more, the lake shore is lined with the fragments of the . of Boston, ; —_ up, in many places, several feet . eering tour, and were old friends, he propeller foundered at her anchors, . served in the European armies, about 200 yards north and 25 yards outside of . discussion, the oug defending wreck high. the piers, and the tremendous violence of the sea com hours. An Exsraorpinany Dvuget.—We learn by a letter from Memphis, of the 16th inst, that a duel was fought in the vicinity of that city on the day previous. It seems that on the late trip of the steamer “North Star” from New Orleans to this place, two of the passengers, Col. Charles Burgthae, from Philadelphia, and Major Riegler, who had been South on an electionbaving both tinto a warm emocracy and . sulted in of. the other Republicanism, which re (RAT. rey Raixoap Srrep.—-The Philadelphia Ledger cites the exhibition in Frauce of a locomotive weighing sixty tons, with ten feet driving wheels, and stated to be capable of attaining a speed of 150 miles per hour, Its center of gravity is placed so low as to render it safer thau ordin engines at the usual speed, so far as gettieg o the track is concerned, Jt is doubted whether the speed named ean be reached without much larger driving wheels, bat there is uo doubt of the practicability of achieving it with larger leted the work of destruction in a few . fensive language of a personal character against . ones: or that, by elevating the tr * * ; hed i ) ‘ac. The heavier portions of the hull have . Col. Burgthae. In the presence of so many . to iat afin ae low par of Deltas. come ashore in large pieces, but the upper . passengers the Colonel felt it incumbent on hin gether with widening the space between. the works are broke up into innumerable fragments. All the dry goods and furniture boxes have been rent asunder by the force of the waves, and their contents riddled by the sand, like sieves, and scattered far and wide along the coast. Some of the hardware, such as cases of axes, &c , came ashore whole, and were washed by the sea far up the beach. Sundry barrels of liquor also came ashore, but it is thought $5,000 will cover the value of all that has been saved. Of forty or fifty persons on board the the propeller when she went down, only three, two deck hands and a steerage passenger were saved. One of these deck hands, Aquilla Gifford, . was on board the steamer Niagara when she . of a Dr. took fire and burned to the water’s edge, off Port Washington, on the 24th of September.— He is not over twenty years of age, and this was his first trip. His second was on the Toledo. which foundered very near the spot where the Niagara was burnt. When the propeller settled Gifford sprang into the sea and struck out for shore. Presently he felt a hand clutching at his neckcloth, and to save himself, slipped his head out of the neckcloth, and saw it go down with the poor fellow who had caught it in hisagony. With the help ofa plank Gifford managed to get to the side of the pier; but he had not strength enough left to climb. He, therefore commenced hallooing for help at the top of his voice, and presently heard answering shouts from the shore. Before help reached bim however, a combing wave threw him upon the pier, and he lost no time in making tracks for terra firma. tis his impression tbat he will stay ashore awhile this time. We learn that, down to Thursday morning, seventeen bodies had been recovered of those who perished by this awful calamity. The bodies were picked up along the shore, south of Port Washington. The crew numbered about twenty-five persons, including Capt. Deusham, of Buffalo, who leaves a wife and child; George Hill, first mate, who leaves a wife and family near Cleveland; David Vance, second mate, brother uf Mrs. Deusham, unmarried; Edward McManman, first engineer, family near Cleveland, and B, F. Stratton, second engineer, unmarried. Mrs Harriett Frazee, of Milwaukee—former. ly the wife of Lucius Wadsworth, deceased, of Buffalo—was among the passengers, together with three of her children. All were lost.—Chicago Times. Suocxina Campuene Tragepy.—The Philadelphia Inquirer gives the following particulars of the late camphene tragedy in that city: “On Saturday evening a heartrending casuality occurred in a house in Johnson’s Lane, running from Third to Fourth streets, which resulted in the death of three children, The particulars of this distressing case are as follows: Shortly after five o’clock, a lady named Mrs. Andrew Moore, who resides in the house, Johnson’s lane, who was in the act of filling a lamp while burning, when one of the childrea came in contact with her arm and capsized the fluid. It immediately set fire to, not ouly to Mrs. M., but to all those in the room, The consternation which followed was of a frightful character, and created the most intense excitement. fort was made by the neighbors to extinguish the flames of the liquid fire from the unfortanate little sufferers, but not until their agony was beyond description. Their cries were heart rending, and everything was done to alleviate their sufferings. Drs. Kammerly and Laws, of the U.S. Navy, were promply in attendance, and did all that human skill possibly could to allay the agonies of the sufferers, The name of the unfortunate vietims are— Ellen J. Lamson, aged 12 years; Emma 11. Moore, 8 years; Wilbelinina Moore, 6 years; Ra. chel Moore, 3 years; Elmira Moore, an infant. Mrs. Moore, in whose arms the infant now lies. was burned about the bands and aris. while Mrs. Moore was burocd about the hands and breast. As we have before said, it has seldom been our painful duty to witness a more distressing . scene. It was one that sent a thrill of anguish to all present. To look upon five innocent children, alla few moments previousin the . Every ef. . . . there a complete series of these portraits, from to demand a reiraction of the insulting matter, which being refused a challange and acceptance . to fight were soon settled upon. Two Huogarian officers named S. Szalay and T, Shultz, lately in the service of Walker, in Nicaragua, who were passengers on the boat, volunteered as seconds, Pistols aud fifteeu paces were the terms proposed, but strange to say, the seconds, the master of the boat, and all the passengers, including many ladies, opposed the proposition, and contended that the fight should be . swords. The Hungarians offered their sa /and the next day, on reaching Memphis, the . parties landed, and procuring the attendance . Hill, also a passenger on the boat, pro. ceeded to some grounds Mg aed the city, accompanied by many of the lady and gentlemen . passengers, The duel was then fought with . great fierceness, and resulted in the defeat of Major Reigler, who by the superior skill of bis adversary, received two terrible cuts, the one on his check and the other on his chin, causing him to drop on the field. Returning to the boat the wounds of the Major were dressed, and a! reconciliation of the parties was effected. Colonel Burgthae shortly afterwards made a specch to the passengers, justifying his course, . land defending ducling on general principles, . which was warmly responded to by those present. It is supposed that the wounded gentleman would have replied but for the condition . of his chin, Both gentlemen displayed great gallantry in the field, and were triumphantly escorted back to the boat by the spectators.—S¢. Louis Dem. A Sap Scene.—The Buffalo Hxpress, of a re. cent date, says that the office of the Southern . Michigan steamers, in that city, was the day previous, the theater of a scene well calculated to move the most obdurate heart. Two young rails and avoiding common roads by bridges and tunnels, railroad trains can move with case and safety 150 miles an hour, Gutta-Percna ror Horsg Suors.—A Philadelphia mechanic has constructed a horse shoe in such & manner that it requires no naile, and can be put on by any one without the aid of a blacksmith. Attached to the shoe is a flange extending around the hoof, and at the back of had with . the horse’s foot is a joint, held in its place by a bres, . Screw, which allows the shoe to open and close so as to accommodate itself to the size of the hoof. Between the hoof and the plate is a layer of gutta-percha, for the purpose of preventing injury to the hoof or leg of the horse by concussion while running over hard roads or streete. The mechanism is very simple, and the a tion of gutta-percha a new and ingenious idea. _Murper on tae PLaiws.—Mr, William Shoekendick recently arrived at St, Louis from California, and states that when crossing the plaine, abouteighty miles the other side of Fort Karney, his party, consisting of himseff, wife and four children and teamster, were attacked by a bod of Cheyenne Indians, who plundered them of all their valuables, and murdered the wife of Mr. S. and the teamster, and carried off one of the children, aged four years, Mr. S. fortunately escaped with three of the children, Tue Limanrocr GRrant.—An important land case was decided in the Fourth District Court of San Francisco, on Friday last, The question in dispute was the title to one-half of two hundred vara lots. This is, we believe, the first time a jury has been called upon to return a verdict on the Limantour grant, as to its genuineness or invalidity. The verdict was against the Limantour grant, and in this aspect the cage . is one of considereble importance, ‘men from Michigan came there in search of . their father. It appears that he left home some . time last summer to visit friends in New York, . His sons were to follow him this fall, make a} i visit, and return with him to Michigan. Pursuaut to arrangements, they left home and passed castward through Buffalo. On reaching their destination, they learned much to their surprise, that their father had left some time since to return home. The painful fear at once flashed . upon their minds that he might have been upon the ill-fated steamer Northern Indiana, as the time of his leaving to return was about the time of that sad occurrence. They returned to Buffalo, aud at once visited the office of Captain Forbes, where the papers relating to the lost on the Northern Indiana are kept. They soon found, in the proceedings of the Coroner at Detroit, a perfect description of their father, among those who were lost and their bodies recovered, . The sad reality of his loss was then forced upon them, and they at once bowed their manhood, and wept like children at the bereavement, The stoutest heart could not resist the painful influ. . at being spectators to the touching scene. .

Tux Crops iy Invianp.—Accounts from Ireland state that the failure in the potato crop this year will be by no means so great as was anticipated at the early re-appearance of the mysterious blight. 1n the districts where it was supposed the crop was irretrievably tainted it has been found that the injury never went below the stock, and that the root itself remained perfeetly sound, Tux Frencu Press snp Fivances,—Suceh is the extreme of financial trouble in France that “all the editors of the Paris journals have been {summoned before the Minister of the Iuterior, and ordered to withhold all comments upon the commercial and financial crisis,” That’s one way of relieving a “tight”? money market which is peculiarly Freneh, but is not likely to prove very sucessful, Tak Conqueror oF Lecompre.—Porter’s Spirit: of the Times is informed that Lexington the celebrated conqueror of Lecompte, has gone blind. This is the inheritance from Boston, and we fear that Lexington will, to a greater or less extent, impart the same defect to his issue. This, however, is not a paramount defect, aa the in. heritance-of blindness does not usually come on . until a racer’s best running days are over.

Boy Buen in 4 WevL.—A thrilling event occurred in in Newark, N. J., on Saturday afternoon. Samuel Swan, anorphan boy, fourteen . years old, went down a neighbor’s well, eighteen feet deep, with a rope around him, to recover a lost bucket, but before reaching the bottom the whole well cavedin upon bim, burying him some eight feet under the stones and earth. By calling him it was found that he was alive and could converse with persons above. He gave himself upin despair, but was of course constantly encouraged to hope for the best, and assu that every effort should be made to extricate him from his perilous position. As soon as possible, two well diggers were obtained from a distance, with their tools, and by great exertions about eight o’clock the boy was . taken out almost unhurt. protected in his efforts to carry out his peaceful and honorable design. This is as it should be; \is as every reasonable man, North and South, . desires it to be; for after all, the contest was not . one, on the part of the South to force slavery into territory ineligible as a field for that deseription of labor, but to maintain their constitutioual rights of taking their property wherever slavery might be rightfully and legally translated. That right is now no longer disputed, and, . . probably, with its full and distinct acknowledgement, no more efforts will be made to introduce slaves into Kansas.

An Exsraorpinany Dvuget.—We learn by a letter from Memphis, of the 16th inst, that a duel was fought in the vicinity of that city on the day previous. It seems that on the late trip of the steamer “North Star” from New Orleans to this place, two of the passengers, Col. Charles Burgthae, from Philadelphia, and Major Riegler, who had been South on an electionbaving both tinto a warm emocracy and . sulted in of. the other Republicanism, which re (RAT. rey Raixoap Srrep.—-The Philadelphia Ledger cites the exhibition in Frauce of a locomotive weighing sixty tons, with ten feet driving wheels, and stated to be capable of attaining a speed of 150 miles per hour, Its center of gravity is placed so low as to render it safer thau ordin engines at the usual speed, so far as gettieg o the track is concerned, Jt is doubted whether the speed named ean be reached without much larger driving wheels, bat there is uo doubt of the practicability of achieving it with larger leted the work of destruction in a few . fensive language of a personal character against . ones: or that, by elevating the tr * * ; hed i ) ‘ac.

All the dry goods and furniture boxes have been rent asunder by the force of the waves, and their contents riddled by the sand, like sieves, and scattered far and wide along the coast. Some of the hardware, such as cases of axes, &c , came ashore whole, and were washed by the sea far up the beach. Sundry barrels of liquor also came ashore, but it is thought $5,000 will cover the value of all that has been saved. Of forty or fifty persons on board the the propeller when she went down, only three, two deck hands and a steerage passenger were saved. One of these deck hands, Aquilla Gifford, . was on board the steamer Niagara when she . of a Dr. took fire and burned to the water’s edge, off Port Washington, on the 24th of September.— He is not over twenty years of age, and this was his first trip. His second was on the Toledo. which foundered very near the spot where the Niagara was burnt. When the propeller settled Gifford sprang into the sea and struck out for shore. Presently he felt a hand clutching at his neckcloth, and to save himself, slipped his head out of the neckcloth, and saw it go down with the poor fellow who had caught it in hisagony. With the help ofa plank Gifford managed to get to the side of the pier; but he had not strength enough left to climb. He, therefore commenced hallooing for help at the top of his voice, and presently heard answering shouts from the shore. Before help reached bim however, a combing wave threw him upon the pier, and he lost no time in making tracks for terra firma. tis his impression tbat he will stay ashore awhile this time. We learn that, down to Thursday morning, seventeen bodies had been recovered of those who perished by this awful calamity. The bodies were picked up along the shore, south of Port Washington. The crew numbered about twenty-five persons, including Capt. Deusham, of Buffalo, who leaves a wife and child; George Hill, first mate, who leaves a wife and family near Cleveland; David Vance, second mate, brother uf Mrs. Deusham, unmarried; Edward McManman, first engineer, family near Cleveland, and B, F. Stratton, second engineer, unmarried. Mrs Harriett Frazee, of Milwaukee—former. ly the wife of Lucius Wadsworth, deceased, of Buffalo—was among the passengers, together with three of her children. All were lost.—Chicago Times. Suocxina Campuene Tragepy.—The Philadelphia Inquirer gives the following particulars of the late camphene tragedy in that city: “On Saturday evening a heartrending casuality occurred in a house in Johnson’s Lane, running from Third to Fourth streets, which resulted in the death of three children, The particulars of this distressing case are as follows: Shortly after five o’clock, a lady named Mrs. Andrew Moore, who resides in the house, Johnson’s lane, who was in the act of filling a lamp while burning, when one of the childrea came in contact with her arm and capsized the fluid. It immediately set fire to, not ouly to Mrs. M., but to all those in the room, The consternation which followed was of a frightful character, and created the most intense excitement. fort was made by the neighbors to extinguish the flames of the liquid fire from the unfortanate little sufferers, but not until their agony was beyond description. Their cries were heart rending, and everything was done to alleviate their sufferings. Drs. Kammerly and Laws, of the U.S. Navy, were promply in attendance, and did all that human skill possibly could to allay the agonies of the sufferers, The name of the unfortunate vietims are— Ellen J. Lamson, aged 12 years; Emma 11. Moore, 8 years; Wilbelinina Moore, 6 years; Ra. chel Moore, 3 years; Elmira Moore, an infant. Mrs. Moore, in whose arms the infant now lies. was burned about the bands and aris. while Mrs. Moore was burocd about the hands and breast. As we have before said, it has seldom been our painful duty to witness a more distressing . scene. It was one that sent a thrill of anguish to all present.

Two Huogarian officers named S. Szalay and T, Shultz, lately in the service of Walker, in Nicaragua, who were passengers on the boat, volunteered as seconds, Pistols aud fifteeu paces were the terms proposed, but strange to say, the seconds, the master of the boat, and all the passengers, including many ladies, opposed the proposition, and contended that the fight should be . swords. The Hungarians offered their sa /and the next day, on reaching Memphis, the . parties landed, and procuring the attendance . Hill, also a passenger on the boat, pro. ceeded to some grounds Mg aed the city, accompanied by many of the lady and gentlemen . passengers, The duel was then fought with . great fierceness, and resulted in the defeat of Major Reigler, who by the superior skill of bis adversary, received two terrible cuts, the one on his check and the other on his chin, causing him to drop on the field. Returning to the boat the wounds of the Major were dressed, and a! reconciliation of the parties was effected. Colonel Burgthae shortly afterwards made a specch to the passengers, justifying his course, . land defending ducling on general principles, . which was warmly responded to by those present. It is supposed that the wounded gentleman would have replied but for the condition . of his chin, Both gentlemen displayed great gallantry in the field, and were triumphantly escorted back to the boat by the spectators.—S¢. Louis Dem. A Sap Scene.—The Buffalo Hxpress, of a re. cent date, says that the office of the Southern . Michigan steamers, in that city, was the day previous, the theater of a scene well calculated to move the most obdurate heart. Two young rails and avoiding common roads by bridges and tunnels, railroad trains can move with case and safety 150 miles an hour, Gutta-Percna ror Horsg Suors.—A Philadelphia mechanic has constructed a horse shoe in such & manner that it requires no naile, and can be put on by any one without the aid of a blacksmith. Attached to the shoe is a flange extending around the hoof, and at the back of had with . the horse’s foot is a joint, held in its place by a bres, . Screw, which allows the shoe to open and close so as to accommodate itself to the size of the hoof. Between the hoof and the plate is a layer of gutta-percha, for the purpose of preventing injury to the hoof or leg of the horse by concussion while running over hard roads or streete. The mechanism is very simple, and the a tion of gutta-percha a new and ingenious idea. _Murper on tae PLaiws.—Mr, William Shoekendick recently arrived at St, Louis from California, and states that when crossing the plaine, abouteighty miles the other side of Fort Karney, his party, consisting of himseff, wife and four children and teamster, were attacked by a bod of Cheyenne Indians, who plundered them of all their valuables, and murdered the wife of Mr. S. and the teamster, and carried off one of the children, aged four years, Mr. S. fortunately escaped with three of the children, Tue Limanrocr GRrant.—An important land case was decided in the Fourth District Court of San Francisco, on Friday last, The question in dispute was the title to one-half of two hundred vara lots. This is, we believe, the first time a jury has been called upon to return a verdict on the Limantour grant, as to its genuineness or invalidity. The verdict was against the Limantour grant, and in this aspect the cage . is one of considereble importance, ‘men from Michigan came there in search of . their father. It appears that he left home some . time last summer to visit friends in New York, . His sons were to follow him this fall, make a} i visit, and return with him to Michigan. Pursuaut to arrangements, they left home and passed castward through Buffalo. On reaching their destination, they learned much to their surprise, that their father had left some time since to return home. The painful fear at once flashed . upon their minds that he might have been upon the ill-fated steamer Northern Indiana, as the time of his leaving to return was about the time of that sad occurrence. They returned to Buffalo, aud at once visited the office of Captain Forbes, where the papers relating to the lost on the Northern Indiana are kept. They soon found, in the proceedings of the Coroner at Detroit, a perfect description of their father, among those who were lost and their bodies recovered, . The sad reality of his loss was then forced upon them, and they at once bowed their manhood, and wept like children at the bereavement, The stoutest heart could not resist the painful influ. . at being spectators to the touching scene. .

By calling him it was found that he was alive and could converse with persons above. He gave himself upin despair, but was of course constantly encouraged to hope for the best, and assu that every effort should be made to extricate him from his perilous position. As soon as possible, two well diggers were obtained from a distance, with their tools, and by great exertions about eight o’clock the boy was . taken out almost unhurt. protected in his efforts to carry out his peaceful and honorable design. This is as it should be; \is as every reasonable man, North and South, . desires it to be; for after all, the contest was not . one, on the part of the South to force slavery into territory ineligible as a field for that deseription of labor, but to maintain their constitutioual rights of taking their property wherever slavery might be rightfully and legally translated. That right is now no longer disputed, and, . . probably, with its full and distinct acknowledgement, no more efforts will be made to introduce slaves into Kansas.
