Teemer beat by two seconds Courtney’s time for three miles—20 144. at Oswego, N. Y., October 7, 1877.

It is stated that a telegram couched in language of a very pacific nature has been received in Shanghai from France. It is believed to be due to the efforts of the Marquis Tseng. A report has been received here of an outbreak of trouble between the French and their native allies in Annam. M, Tricou, French Minister to China, re- mains in Shanghai. « * * Later ac- counts state that the Marquis Tseng denies that an agreement has been reached te- tween M.

The British passenger vessels, ‘‘ Hurunui” and ‘‘Waitara,” belonging to the New Zea- land Shipping Company, collided off Port- land, England, on Friday night. The ‘‘Waitara’” sank in two minutes. Twenty- five persons were drowned. The ‘‘Hur- unui” immediately launghed her boats, which rescued sicteen persons struggling in the waves. Among these was a lady, a saloon passenger, .o whom a sailor, who was saved, had given up his life belt. Two other saloon passengers were also saved. All the second class and steerage passen- gers were lost. The captain of the ‘*Wai- tara’ was dragged aboard the ‘‘Hurvnui” with the aid of ropes. The two vessels left London together on Friday. The ‘“‘Hunurui”’ struck the ‘‘Waitara” end on, just in front of the saloon, on the starboard side. The survivors state that no crash was heard, but that the side of the ‘*Wai- tara” gave way like cardboard. They say the passengers might have been saved, had a barque or a steamer, which were seen near by, heeded the ‘‘Waitara’s” signals of distress. The ‘‘Waitara”’ was an iron ship of 833 tons, built in 1863. The ‘‘Hurunui’ is also an iron ship.

Fish Lake levee, which protects about 15 square miles of rich farming land, in American bottom, on the Illinois side of the Missippi river, below East Carondolet, broke at 11 o’clock on the night of the 23rd. About 10,000 acres of fine farms are now under water. The damage tocrops and other property is estimated at $100,000. - + + + A despatch of the 24th from St. Louis, says,—The Mississippi river is still rising, but more slowly than heretofore. In the early forenoon the water, which broke through the Madison Dyke, yester- day, reached a point above Venice and broke, There is a fearful crevasse in the Chicago and Alton railroad embankment. About 600 feet of the track seemed to sink and disappear in an instant, and the gap has been widering ever since. Parallel with this embankment run the tracks of the In tianapolis, the St. Louis, and the Wabash roads. These tracks could not withstand the terrific current, and they, too, went down in quick succession, cutting off direct rail connection with thenorth. These breaks gave the water a speedy exit to the east- ward, and all day a steady and rapid cur- rent has been passing out toward the bluff. The water is pow spreading over all the bottom land north of the Old Ohio &

| fourths of the families in town are quarter-

ed in the school houses and a few residences ona ridge of high ground. Most of these people are destitute from the point to the blutfs, a distance of four miles ; and in the southwards for ten or twelve miles the entire country is submerged and presents a scene of the utmost desolation and ruin. Nearly all of the farmers are ruined, as are also very many farmers elsewhere on the bottom lands. The little town of Cahookie, a short distance from Carondeiet, is all under Water and the inhabitants can move about only in skiffs. The previous estimate of the damage in this region is said to be much too low, It is now stated that fully 10,000 acres of wheat alone are from two to six feet un ter, and as much more of corn, potatoes and other

$20,000. It is also stated that the St. Louis and Cairo road and the Belt road, part of which extends to East Carondelet, have been damaged fully $20,000. Crev Couer Lake, 20 miles west of St.. Louis, has overflowed its western bank and flood- ed the adjacent lowlands, causing great damage. An immense ice house belonging to the Crev Gouer Ice Co., was undermined and fell, causing a loss of $40,000. * * An Omaha and Nebraska dispatch says immense damage has been done by floods in southern Nebraska the past week, amounting to many hundred thousand dollars. Crops, buildings and railroads have been destroyed, and considerable live stock have been drowned, The valley of Nemaha River is submerged. The wife and four children of John Grub were drowned. J.
