. && ADDRESS,

W. L. COTTON, Chtown, Dec. me

This morning, about 10 o'clock, what came near proving a terrible accident hap-/ pened on the river front, near the Union: Line wharf. The sloop Jronica, manned by A. W. Millican, T. S. Millican and T. I’. Snell, who have been here for some two or three days, visiting the exhibition, de cided to return home this morning. At the time of starting there was quite a lively breeze blowing, but the sloop, being a good sea-boat, the voyagers had no fear in trust- ing themselves on the fitful river. The point of starting was just above the Union Line Wharf, and the yachtsmen had scarce- ly sailed 200 yards before the sky suddenly darkened and a tremendous squall struck the boat, on which there was set quite a heavy sail. The stroke made the frail craft quiver from stem to stern, and, as with a sudden impulse, the boat began to careen over until the gunwale was under water, when, with a quick motion, she went over, the sail preventing the complete overturn of the sloop. The two brothers climbed upon the side of the boat out of the water, but Snell was unable to do this, and was thrown into the water. He succeeded in grasping and getting on top of the sail, and |by this means alone saved his life, which was certainly in great peril. But the boat- men were not yet out of danger, as no one was on shore atthe time to rescue them, and it was only after drifting down stream a considerable distance that they succeeded in grasping some floating lumber, and thus got ashore. ~ Assistance arrived, and the boat was righted and once more started on her way to St. John.

A strong. wind has been blowing here all day. During one heayy squall one of the fine plate glass windows in Messrs. A. A. Miller & Co’s store was blown in, com- pletely shattering it. The glass was in- sured.

Fiorence, Oct. 13.

Nazione reports that an Internationalist movement is anticipated in some of the frontier towns. The authorities have ar- ranged for vigorous measures.

Rocugstex, N. Y., Oct. 12.

- Twenty or more prisoners have just escaped from the jail by boring through the walls and scaling the enclosure. They include some of the worst burglars in the country. The police are out in all direc- tions searching for them.

Lonpon, Oct. 13.

The Post’s Berlin despatch states that as Tchaltaldja, which the Russians continue to held, does not belong to the line which the London Cabinet considers necessary for the defence of Constantinople, the British fleet will not return to the Bosphorus. ;

Pestu, Oct. 13.

The appointments of Herr Von Tisza and Baron Von Wenckhelm to act provisionally as Ministers of Finance and Interior, re- spectively, are officially announced.

Lonpon, Oct 15.

A late despatch reports that the Turks occupied Baboeski when it was evacuated by the Russians. Gen. Todleben now summons the Turkish commander to with- draw from the place, threatening to take it forcibly. Safet Pasha has consequently or- dered its evacuation and the Russians will re-occupy it. The Turks have mounted guns on the Constantinople lines.

Paris, Oct. 153.

Up to to-day 60,000 francs had been sub- scribed for the yellow fever sufferers of the United States.

Lonpon, Oct. 23.

A Constantinople despatch says the Porte has received information that the Russians have recommenced marching on Adrian- ople, presumably from the north. All the foreign military attaches have left Constan- tinople to verify this intelligence. Prince Lobanoff starts for Adrianople.

Vienna, Oct. 13.

Montags Revue repeats the announce- ment published yesterday, that Austria will proceed to occupy Novi Bazar at the proper time, regardless of the protest of Turkey; but adds that for a time it is unnecessary to extend the occupation beyond the present boundary.

New York, Oct. 12.

An Indianapolis despatch, giving the part ticulars of the recent outrage at Moun- Vernon, Ind., says the three white women who were outraged by negroes were inmates of a disreputable house. The five guilty negroes were taken from the jail by the mob last night and placed under a tree ready to swing, when a large body of ne- groe’s came into the town to the rescue. A conflict followed. Two whites were killed, and indescribable tumult raged. Four ne- groes were hung, and one cut to pieces in jail. The mob understood during the day that the militia had been ordered from Evansville and gathered at tae depot to prevent the militia interfering.

LivERPOOL, Oct. 12.

It is stated that between four thousand and five thousand persons were in the Coliseum Theatre last night at the time of the fatal panic, though this probably is ex- aggerated. A performer was singing a

| comic song when a fierce fight commenced

in the pit. A cry of fire was raised, and a general stampede for the box-office entrance occurred, though there were said to be five other doors open for the egress of the audi-

' ence,

ed until they had reached a ghastly pile six or seven bodies deep. An wpright partition in the centre of the doorway stopped the passage, until one of the men attached to the theatre procured an axe and cut it- away, enabling some imprisoned people to escape. A scene of the greatest excitement prevailed outside the theatre. Fire engi and ffre escapes arrived, and the firemen, joining the police, entered to rescue the people. The manager of the theatre, upon the first alarm, rushed into the pit from the entrance and shouted to the audience to remain quiet, but all his efforts were in- effectual until the theatre had been nearly cleared, when the dead and injured were carried to the Royal Infirmary. Two of the dead were women, three boys and my able-bodied men of the laboring class. Lonvon, Oct. 13.

The Standard’s despatch from Simla says that the latest rumor is that the enemy’s advance through the Khyber Pass is prob- able. The rumor appears to rest on no particular authority. The Khyberees re- port that the Afghans in the Pass are suf- fering from fever.

Paris, Oct. 13.

A cable special says that trade at the Manchester Cotton Exchange was almost paralyzed yesterday by the failure of Bal- four & Co. Their failure is reported to have been occasioned by heavy losses on shipments of Manchester goods to India and China. The Manchester cloth trade and yarn importers are much agitated, and it is believed that the failure will seriously affect Lancashire.

Lonvon, Oct. 13.

The Viceroy’s native emissary writes from Cabul, under the date of the 6th inst., that he has received permission to leave and would bring the Ameer’s answer.

Parts, Oct. 153.

Two companies of marines and two men- of-war have been ordered to New Caledonia from Cochin China, in consequence of the continuance of the insurrection.

Paris, Oct. 12.

Monsignor Felix Antoine Phillippee Du. panloup, Bishop of Orleans, and member of a French Senate, died suddenly yester-

ay. Lonpon, Oct. 12.

A dispatch from Simla states that the idea of adash on Ali Musjid has been abandoned. The military authorities have considered it useless until they were pre- pared to proceed beyond that point. e original programme of an advance from twe or three points early in November will be maintained,

A dispatch from Constantinople correct. ing the statement in the Vienna Political Correspondence of Oct. 8th, says that Prince Lobanoff informed Safvet Pasha that the Russians will retain Adrianople not until the treaty of Pere is fulfilled, but until a treaty is signed confirming those parts of San Stefano treaty which are not affected by the decision of the Berlin Congress. This incident has caused some alarm in diplomatic circles, but the correspondent believes that the object of the demand is merely to hasten the part which is hanging over some stipulation.

A despatch from Pera reports that Lo- banoff told Safvet Pasha that until supple- mentary treaty is signed a state of war ex- ists.

The Clyde shipbuilders have notified their workmen of a reduction of 8} per cent. in wages from the 22nd. The reduction af- fects 40,000 employes.

The Manchester Guardian says the failure of Balfour & Co. was caused G losses on Lancaster goods shipped to India and China.

Seventeen persons were drowned at Cor- temigla and Millesimo, Northern Italy, by the overflow of the Bermida River.

A Vienna despatch states the Imperial Ministry, which aets in common for Aus- tria and Hungary, is confident of a majori in Austro-Hungarian delegations, to nick alone it is accountable.

Advices from New Caledonia state that the insurrection is spreading. A further massacre of whites by native occurred.

Tue following item upon young bet- ting men appeared in the Montreal ‘‘ Wit- ness” a day or two since, and its relations are stated to be facts by the correspondent of that paper: To-day A., who has an an- nual income of $5,000, told me that B.,who has an annual salary of $500, had bets with him on the boat race to the extent of $150. I learn of many young clerks with smaller salaries, having bets varying from $20 to $50. On Friday last one of the notorious dead-beat brokers of Montreal gave as an excuse for not paying an account that he

“had bets up to $300 on Hanlan, and would not know till Thursday if he could pay the account this year.” This is a demo-

condition of affairs. Supposin

that these bets of a month’s or a quar salary by these young “‘bloods” or ‘‘sports” are lost! Then ensues a period of impecu- nious misery, debt to a landlady, washer- woman, tailor and boot maker; of either enforced economy or borrowing. Some- times these lost wagers, whether at cards, billiards, boat race or what not, lead to misappropriation of money. Betting is poor business and should be shumned.
