He, too, owed his _safety to his ability to use his hands and feet to advan tage, as did also his brother, who had an equally miraculous escape. A small boy got on the back of an elderly gentleman named Ashbury, and when that gentleman first came to the surface, Mr. Ashbury shouted, " Get off there," fearing he would not be able to carry himself ashore, much less than the boy._ "No, you don't." replied the urchin, and bravely held the fort till the shore was reached. Mr. Atilt - bury lost his aged partner in life. He was frantic with grief last night and to -day, saying that if lie had known that his wife was drowned he would have gone down without an effort to save himself. Miss Louie Meredith is suffering from great mental prostration. Her father did not wish to go down the river, but she per- suaded kiln and lie went. Being lost, she charges his death on herself, and her grief is unbounded. Shortly before 3 o'clock this morning, tv man Cerra'', who was rescued from the ‘n.eck and taken to McDonald's Hotel, Kensington, died. It is supposed he had Peen iejured iuternally. In one 'block in the city no fewer than five familiert fillffer bereavements. About 10 funerals took plate yesterday tied Over 100 persona were interred to -day. Yesterday, when hearties could not be got, waggons were extemporised. There WAS no false sentimentality evident. .,Miss Connell, otif the rescued, is -in a • dangerous state. The water is getting into her brain, and the -doctors have every fear that she will not recover. Miss Connell's - sister was with lier at, the time. She was • rescued from the struggling mass. She is • also in a somewhat dangerougeonditiou. Dr. 'Reenter, Of the -Asylum, and Mr. - Wm. Magee, of .the .tdrertieee, narrowly escaped.

R. express train which left here last night at 11.40, the remains of Miss Dennis, wno had been on a visit to a friend in the city, were taken to her late home, eighteen miles from Hamilton. The body was accompanied by two mAle rela- tives, who were plunged in the deepest grief.

BOTH EYE AND NOSE OFFENDED. Procuring saddle horses at Lima, the writer and two companions rode out to the battle fields. Before we -reached the spot we could smell the stench, as the wind was blowing from it towards we The flies began to bother Our animals, and we soon reached the first subject. It was adead cholo, or Peruvian Indian, with his rifle and. forty or fifty cartridges lying near, also ft bag of mouldy bread. Ile had a bayonet stab in the breast, and his skull was broken by a blow from a musket stock, as it is said the Chilians finish their victims in that style. Benzine had been poured on his body andthenset On fire. The flames had ran swiftly over, burning the clothing .and portions of the body, and then went out. So there he lay in a half -consumed con- dition just where he fell a week before. We soon found others in the satne condi- tion -and then 1groups cf five and ten in a pile, some on their backs, others on their faces, as they were dragged up and flung together by th4Chilian soldiers. All seemed to be witlt the'-fegs end arms spread out and distorted, probably by the action of the fire.

LUNGS FILLED WITH 111074 FILINGS. • A Singular Pout Herten' Discovery in Ole • Case of a Long-linffeiinsg allaelthdst: A despatch from Fulton, N.Y., says a post nwrtem examination of the body of Joseph Bausel, who died recently in this village, developed a phenomenon which sur- prised the doctors, and has been the theme of considerable medical speculation. Bausel, who was 48 years old, was a native of Wales, and in boyhood was apprenticed to the trade of machinist and loom -fixer, which he followed in various factories in Wales and England before he came to this country thirteen years ago to set up the machinery in the Oswego Falls factories, opposite this place On the Oswego River„ Bausel was a man of strong constitution, but was addicted to enervating excesses, and- for the past ten years his health had been seriously impaired. He had been treated by all the doctors here and others from Syracuse, and had dosed himself with everything he could hear of, so that his house resembled an apothecary's shop. Most of the physicians thought he had cancer of the stomach. The symptoms weee laminating pains, followed by the vomiting •of a coffee -colored substance, • The paroxysms occurred at intervals of two or three weeks, often attacking him in the street or at his work.. Sometimes the pains appeared in his knees, disabling his legs so that he fell. • One day,.nine years ago, a physician administered- a, hypoderrnie'. injection - of morphine to relieve the pain and kept up the injectiontefor a year. Then Mrs. Emma. Franklin, wh�. had become Bausch's nurse, concluded that the expensive -daily visits of the doctor. could be dispensed with. she .bought a syringe and some morphine and set up in the business herself. About this time Bausel quarrelled with his wife and she went home toThigland. He became a bciarder at Mrs. Franklin's and she can - tinned: the morphine injections daily for eight years, to relieve Bausel.S pain when, he Was in -pain, and when he -was pot, for fear he would be During the hist year the dose had _increased to 10 or 15 grainsof morphine te day and Ratisel's legs 1,10.,elt with the scars of the syringe.. • .' last illness "began -In March list With a.seyere,ebld, upon recovering frein.which he exilerieneed, for the . first _time , -_great difficulty in -breathing._.- This was thought to be asthmatic.

Satan's Soliloquy. A New York contemporary, referring to the fact that a number of the New York churches would be shut up during the warm summer months, breaks out in this strain; At a doorway stood the Devil, feeling that his head was level, As he watched a xnidnight revel, where the fun was fast and free, 'Mid the masking and the mull:ming, through his ears there went a humming Of the HUM Trier days a coming, which his feast- ing time should be. Who will fare so well as he? "Everything is lovely," said he; " soon the par- sons, staid and steady, Will be gladly making ready for their annual_ mum iner spree. Then the razes and ewes and wetbers, and the lambkins without tethers, Shall be swept away like feathers into sin's remorseless 1.405 ; They will all be fish for me. "This to me a splendid treat is, when the annual bronchitis, Or a threatened meningitis, draws the shepherds , from the fold, And the sheep, desiring freedom, tell thew that they do not need 'cm Itt the summer days to lead 'em ; BO they fill their scrips with gold, Not a bit like those of old. "Some go off to breezy highlands, some infest the cake -and -pie lands, Others roam the Thousand Islands, others flock to foreign lands, Then the various congregations iaeek theirseveral • recreations, Not to speak of dissipations, while the Devil , waiting stands, Keen to catch them in his bands. "1, who never 0111 afflicted with the ways I have depicted, Or to such delights addicted as the shepherds find so dear; 1, who only work -for glory, with my partner from .Peory, Then *ill tell my pretty story, which the people like io hear. • I am With you, never fear!." --- Value of Revaccination. -An illustration of the value of revaccina- tion is.afforded by a report just furnished by the chief medical officer of tile General Post office in England. This report relates to an average number of 1.0;504 persons. employed it the postal service in- _London, .all ofwhom have been required to undergo revaccination on admission to the service-, unless that operation las been performed ' within,' seven years previously. Among these persons, during' the ten yeare. 1.80- 11379; therehashot been a single fatal ease - ohm:hal-poi, and in only tett instaneeshave. there been non-fatal .attacks, all of which were of a very ,slight character.

C, says "Abso_lom Brown, a widower living near - - • here; went away from home. yesterday, ' leaving his three. children alone. The youngest Of these children, a boy, aged .3 years, hadlongbeen sickly, and the two older'children, a boy . and girl, conceived the idea of putting him out of the way. They accordingly tied a rope - around his neck and swung him -tea joist of the house,.. where he was found a few minuteslaterby a colored woman, of the neighborhood', who - passed through the lot on an errand. . This woman cut the child down and laid it on the bed, when it began to gasp and , filially regained consciousness. She then , wentler way, and, returning homeward _ sometime. later, stopped again at Brown's. house, where she ascertained that the, brother and sister bad taken the young , child off the bed, carried it out behind the garden and buried it. She hastened to the scene of the burial, dug tbe child up and carried it to the house. The child died to; day from the shock. , A Too Obedient Son. - (From the St. James'Gaiettee The Assize Court at Heilbronn, in Wurt- emberg, had lately before it a case which is . probably unique in criminal annals. A laborer, who was laid up with a- broken leg. was charged With embezzlement, and was summoned to appear before the „little . d'instntet ion: Overwhelmed with the clis- grace,perhaps unable to. exculpate himself, he orderedehis son to hang him. The son, who atso was a laborer, obeyed his father's wish, and carried him to the 110USO loft, where be hung him effectively from one of - the beams. The court sentenced the son to imprisonment for three years and nine - months. - • Corporal punishment, as - it is now in- flicted in England en prisoners bymeans of a birchrod, appears to be regarded by them as a good joke, and to !exercise an exhilaratingrather than a deterrent effect on the offenders. The chaplain of Park- lnirst prison, in his report just. printed, calls.attention to this point, and expresses his belief that in the - end it is kindest to make _punishment real. He is inclined to think, from a conversation overheard between two prisoners, one, of 'wham had recently been 'flogged, that if corporal •pueishment must be resorted to at all, the birch is "a mistake. "Well," inquired one of the prisoners, "how did you get on the other day?. Did you mind it ?" Jack," replied his fellow captive, "mind it? I should think notsjancy minding a birch broom!
