The Superintendent, Mr. Jenkins, who was at the time acting for CJen. Smith, escaped, as also did the engineer, rur. jjecx, together witu live other persons. The names of the drowned men are Peter Harrington, Joe Morris and Charles Holley, the latter bting a colored man. Fortunately there were no men, at the time, working in the tube, they having recently left the work . At the present time all trace of the center pier is obliterated, excepting a strong eddy at the place where the smoke stack of the steamer reaches within a short space of the surface of the waier. As far as we eun. learn, the pier broke away from the moo: ings which connected with the,sew, and the whwl-force of the current struck agaitmt it. The pier was immersed some twenty-six feet in the sand, there being seven sections in all placed i:r position, and all of which arc now lying at tho bottom of the river. The fhs.t indication of the accident was the appearance of a quantity of wreck and lumber passing down the Missouri, after which all kinds of exagerated re ports prevailed. The catastrophe amounts io not more and not less than the demol ition of seven sections of tubing, which had been reared at much trouble and ex pense, and also the destruction of the steam scow. The work will be impe ded, but the same energy which has prosecuted will doubtless i'ulul the enter prise, and a few weeks will no doubt re pair what is assuredly a great disa.-ter. We visited the scene of tiie calaudty ycateiCi-y aitcrnovo, a.n-I vrer? sorry to see the men recently engaged in the woik much det.res-ed at the loss of their com rades, and the sudden stoppage whit had be n put to a wrk which was the pride of the city. There's a chubby little infant in the cradle, his fat bet just looking out from , .i if,., it- under tno Mauxct, ins cvcm sparkling with healrh. his fat fi-t jammed into his mouth. Jle s a mere norhmsr only bah, but he is waiting. Some day he will be a roan, and wiii take a part in tho bustle of the great business life. Years are b.f;re him long Jife is his, hands tender wiil guide him over rough places umil he has man's years and man's inde pendence only waiting. There's an old man seated in the nook of the hcarihtouo, his head is white as wool, ins lorm tivniohng, his hie almost gone. He is waiting. Though he hears not your kind words, there are voices from above voices so soft and geniie and sympathetic, that teil him: "Wait a little loneer old limn: a few more days of this l'ne, and then "We wiil carry yon sale over " Ami she old man wait-"- and li-ten-i far the glad news. He has Leon young, oil. ha- traveled th rs:y paths as. 1 Cowery walks ; seen bright suns go down in the midst of dark and erne: storms, and now he knows that a lew spiiit. hovering over the earth ; up there, where the old are young, and where the young are blessed. Only waiting. Ait of us are waiting. We may go far noi.s Lome, seek th bu.-t'e of biin'e.-s, seclude ourselves fiom the world, be good or bad, aui.t.s frtunos or live in poverty, and our day must come. The thought is wit h u ; we cannot nuke it stay acray. Death, death? an 1 yet live, as it would never come. The infant in the may not nvc a year ; tot oi.i man m t;io coiner may see oar grave before his time -dines. Cannot the wor.d eh inge? Cannot we all be Letter men a":.d women have better, nobler thought- give more heed to death seek a safer road to heaven ! Are there any so good that some evil has not crept iu ? Are there any so bid that they could not be reformed ? Life! oh what is life? A day, an hour! A rough journey; tears, sighs; and the voice bids us come over the threshhold of death for eternal judg ment. Il.c Ilrtil Slurui. The great hall storm of Sunday last, which we have heretofore referred to, otvurred about three o'clock of that day and commenced in the Doke neighbor hood, in Highland township, near the Keokuk county line, and was about one r.rd a half miies wide, and some three miles in length. Over this track the hail ft'l in great quantities, of immense size, and almost entirely destroyed the youug growing corn, and other vegetation The corn, wheat and oats will revive, but grapes, apples, peaches, and all sorts of tender vegetables and fruits, wiil be al most a total failure in the line of devas tation, as we learn f rom osir informant, Mr. Minor Kirkpatrick. Ottutnwu (Iowa) Courier, th. An excursion of clergyman to San Francisco has been planned at Cfc'eago. licketsfor the round trip, sJilS, good for sixty days from date ; $400 should be provided for real expenses. None but real clergymen sire aiiowed to join the party. A vi.-it of a few days at Suit Lake is included in the programme. It is thought that many congregations- wili avail themselves of this opportunity to send their pastors a-pleasuun?. Con tributions for the suppost of the "inner man" during the trip are pouring in ; some friend' tor ward greenbacks; others provisions for lunch time; a lew tracts have been received by the committee, with instructions that they aie. to be c.trefuliy read during the sojourn of the wandering :hepherds" in Salt Lake. But the most aceepable cargo yet pre sented to tno brethren isagi-osSot .ful 'Tf Kentucky Bourbon." That is to be u.d in csu-e of chilliness in ascending the iuountain., hoar-eness in tbggy mornings; to aliay the peculiar thirst which nfllicts travelers in crossing arid plains, and to impart the cu-totnary odor to travelers. Ci'crlawl lyiiimhilcr. The London R'l'dicnn Xeirs copies a bill of fare of one of Fudrjipn's hotel cars and adds, by way of comment : "Railway travelers will read with some thing like, feedings of eov'3' the arrange ment's made tor the supply of creature comforts in the famous Pullman travel in-? cars, isfdCtory too many jhuoi." ing cars, as compared with the unsat isfactory state of thines provided upon of our r.ricush and continental Theua are at present seventeen royal grand children to be provided for by the British Crown.

Four bulky volumes about tho A!a- luima elaims are about to be issued from the State department press for the edification of Congress and the public during tlie clog days. The Countess Chabrillnn has written a comedy "' America ine" in which an American lady is the villainess of the plav: and it took hve acts to bring out all the misdeeds of our rascally country woman. The kind hearted people who have contributed money for the benefit of the reman movement, will find that their donations won't come auiiss. The poor fellows at '"the front" need all the funds to get home with. Several large dry goods stores in New York have siibstituteel girls for '"cash boys." The change is said to work well, which we doubt. Girls have always been good at taking cash, but very bad for handing back the change. A petrified snake is now on exhibition at Wytheville, Va. It is about half an inch thick, coiled un, has perfect scales on its body, might have been two feet in length, and is ot hard, white rock. In Indianapolis, the other day, a little girl actress sang "Little IJarefoot" in costume. Such was the effect on the audience that at the repetition of "Flease sir, give me a penny, sir," it fairly rained nickles on the stage. 4'The fact is," paid an elderly wife, 4'a man does not know how to straighten up things. He does not know where to commence. I don't wonder," she re marked in conclu.-ion, ''that when God made Adam he went right to work and made a woman to teil him what to do." A Connecticut editor nays of the bald headed brother, that so long as he can fold his ears over the top of his head really what's the use of having Lair, any way ? A white ro'-e, taken from the bier of John C. Calhoun, when his remains lay instate at Charleston. S. C, has been transplanted four times, and now blooms in the garden of a citizen of Columbia.

The wife of Jerome Hilliard, of Wal lingford, Vt., a niece of ex-Gow Wil liam Slade, drowned herself in Otter cre-.'k, Sunday evening, while tempora rily insane. She leaves five children." The Mobile Retjiater calls .Gen Sher man "the gentleman who 'marched to the sea' with only raw militia and but termilk cavalry on the way to prevent him." And yet the Register is a red hut organ of "hist ditch" Democracy. The Nev Orleans Time thinks the first object of tlie Dental Convention, about to sit in that city, should be to ex amine into the mouth of the Mississippi no trming matter, since the river has -even mouths, all full of snags and stumps. They tell in Indiana of a man who, the other day, got "fatigued," laid down close to :i luohi-ses barrel, aeciden-'aily turned the faucet, and went to sleep with a fud stream running on his head. He was discovered after about eighteen g ailons of sweet had run out over him. He was fined eight dollars for disorderly conduct, and had to pay for the molasses. He raid it was a case of linked sweet ness long drawn out. Yale students have again brcn guilt' of conduct calculated to bring that insti tution into di-gra.e. La.t Saturday night, the-i'ltt" th'tm says, a few of the students engaged in a series of wanton .action, prominent among w hich were the firing of a college out building, breaking into and defacing the chapel, abstracting the cushions and Bible, carrying off one of the iron seats on the greeu, etc. Girls who go out ridimr with young men should always grab the lines when the team gedj frightened.

Tribune nays a. singular proposition was made to the overseers of the poor of that county, a few days since. An old man an Irish man from one of the town in the up per end othe county, presented hiuisels to the overseer, bringing with hiu six horses and other stock, worth about $!, 500 which he desired the county to re ceive, and in return support him the rest of his life. His rea-on was that he was too old to take proper care of his stock, and ha vim.' uo relatives with tvhom be wished to live, he preferred to go to tlie lVior House. The overseer had no au thority to receive him under the circum stances, but not wirhing to turn him away, has allowed him to remain a few days until the County Commissioncrscan dispo-e of his case. A San Francisco letter says James Fisk, Jr., has signified, per wire, that he is going to the Dsiciuc coast, and requests the most magnificent unite of rooms in the principal hotel to be reserved for his u-io. He also announces his inteution of giving a grand ball to the ladies of San Francisco, the cost of which is to be $.'0,000.
