The great calamity which occur red yesterday in Hampshire county, Mass., is the subject of comment of all the papers here. Severe reflec tions are made by several papers on those having charge of the reservoir, for carelessness in not ascertaining their dangerous condition. The Herald says the disaster showed it was badly built and been badly examined. There ia no ex cuse for building a reservoir that will burst into a death dealing, desola ting tide under the influence of the first spring rains. Much sympathy is expressed for the sufferers here, and a movement will no doubt be started at once to extend substantial aid to them. A Herald special from Springfield says that the flood in Hampshiro county was nothing more or less than the result of an insecure, ill constructed reservoir. The dam is about nineyears old and has receiv ed few, if any repairs, since its con struction. Common rumor at Williamsburg says it has been pronouned unsafe for three years back. The watch man who discovered the leak, thought little of it at first, but when it widened and tho water rushed through in a rapidly increasing volume, he grew alarmed and has tened to notify the inhabitants in the village below. He started on a run for Williamsburg, two miles off, but long before he reached it the embankment gave way and the mass of water was at Williamsburg before him. He took refuge on a neiirhborinc hill to save his own life. At Haydenville the people thought the approaching mass was firo, am rang the fire bells. In a few seconds after the place was in undated by a resistless torrent. Many ot the manufactories destroy ed will probably never be re-opened. The blow has been a sad disaster, not only to life but to commercial interests of the large, busy district. In twenty minutes after the inun dutlou'the water perceptibly fell and continued to "fall sJowly; . Boston, May 17. A special dispatch from North ampton to the Globe, gives tho fol lowing additional details of the ter rible mill river disaster: Tho total loss of life is not yet known, but from returns recently made, it appears that 127 bodies have been identified, while others were found and Lurried unidentified. There is no doubt but that'so'me of the bodies were carried Into tho Connecticut river, and perhaps will never be seen again. The bodies were tossed about wildly, and thrown frequently In contact' with hard substances, and in most eases were stripped naked; and badly bruised. In Wil. liamsburg, a good many French mill operatives were lost, and as they were almost total strangers, their names could not be ascer tained. In Leeds, a woman was found in the fork of a tree, ten feet from tho ground. Seven members of a French family, named Burnett, perished, A later special to tho Globe says the danger Is now over and people are now beginning to understand the deplorable condition of affairs. One hundred and fifty persons have been lost Many survivors are homeless, penniless and destitute; weeping women and children are a common sight in the streets of the ruined villages. Many bodies are stil unclaimed; in one carpenter's shbpjin Leeds there are 47 corpses; in the Leeds school house are'9; in the vestry of the Congregational church, Haydensville, there are 9, most of thesp have been claimed by friends. Provisions" are going for ward from Northampton. Offers of assistance have been received from the authorities of New Haven and Watertown, Connecticut, Little Rock, May 17. Under orders from Gov. Baxter's headquarters, the houses of Chief Justice McClure, Attorney General Yodkley, General Putman, and sev eral other prominent Brookites were guarded last night to prevent any attempt at capture or any violence from the lawless bands. The guards report that they wprg wpU ffeated and cared for by 'the ladies and' In most cases by the gentlemen. The regulars are still patrolling the city, capturing a small number of men. It Is supposed fljey areact ing in violation of the agreement made hy both parties yesterday. They were released to-day; some ncr groes were taken In by them, . Baxter's command, by orders of Major-Gencial Churchill, held a dress parade this afternoon. The soldiers made a good appearance. There was much cheering and a sa lute was gived.

Little Rock, May 16. As soon as the contents of the President's proclamation became known in this city the wildest ex citement prevailed, and never in the history of Little Rock was there such general rejoicing. Crowds of men, women and children throng the streets, flags are waving and bands are pla3'ing. Baxter issued a congratulatory or der to his forces last night, compli menting them for responding to his call. Brooks sent a cummunica tion to Baxter to arrange for dis banding the forces on both sides. Baxter referred the matter to his commanding officer, Gen. Newton. New York, May 16.

The President yesterday unequiv ocally condemned the currency bill passed by tho Senate, Ho consid ered the bill originally reported by the finance committee a measure of compromise, and though not such a measure as he would wish had been passed to provide a specie pay met. Yet he would have been wil ling to accept it as a compromise with the south and west. He now urges the leading njen iji the Housp to havo the bill so amended as to make it consistent fox him to sign it, in the event of tho Senate's concurring in the amendment.

The destruction by the bursting of the reservoir has been more gen eral and complete than was at first supposed. The break in the reser voir occurred about daylight, al most immediately a torrent of water swept down on the villages of Haj--denville, Williamsburg and this village. The buildings could not withstand the immense force of the flood, and were dashed to fragments or swept on entirely; many in the latter case with inmates in them at the time. Not a single frame build ing that stood before the flood in any proximity to the reservoir now remain standing. It is impossible at present to state how many per sons perished, but serious appre hensions are entertained that the scene will disclose terrible results.
