J-'or the last twenty-four hours the heaviest Ice ever seen in the Ohio river nt this point has been floating by the city, and as a consequence mo ferryboats an J transfer steamers have been unable to leave their harbors. Nearly all the steamers that were at tho landing on Wednesday when the ice began to run out heavy, left the wharf to seek safer quarters in the Mississippi river back ol the city.

Squirei, an employe of the box and basket factory, met with a seri ous and painful aeeident yesterday morn ing. He wai at work about the machi nery, and ono of the belts having slipped off the pully, was attempting to replace it, when his left hand was caught be tween the belt and pully. tearing oil' the little fluger close to the hand J and the third liigor at the middle joint. Mr. Squires is a poor man, and ids mishap will go hard with him. lien y Ire. Never within the memory of the "oldest Inhabitant' was such heavy ice seen in the Ohio river at this point as that which floated down Wednesday night, yesterday and last night. Though the ice was broken into small pieces, it was so closely jammed together as to form an apparently solid mas from shore to shore, and was a sight to be seen but once in many years in this part of the country. No damage was done to !hipping here. Neither Dead Xor Very Stick. A report wai circulated in the city yesterday to the effect that Dr. W. It. Smith, ol this city, had died suddenlyVn the train between Cairo and New Or leans. The report caused considerable excitement, and the many friends ot the doctor expressed the dee pest regret and feeling for the loss of one so highly ef feemcd and valued. But after a little ti.no it was ascertained that lr. Smith was neither lw nor nick, but. on his way South, andtceling very well. A Temperance War. The good people of the Ir.tle town oj I llin are just now agitated over the quolion of license or no license. Joe Taprich wanted to sell liquor, but the temperance people said no. Now It has been proposed to submit the question to a vote of the people of the town, and both sides arc working hard for success. Al.PcBauu is against license, not be cause be is a temperance man but be cause he don't like Taprich. Joe don't like At., but wants him on his side in this tight, and A I. will bo on his side if Jot; will use the right kind ot bait to catch him. Joe knows w hat kind of bait it takes to catch PeBaun. The Merry Dn ol Old. In reading of the middle ages one is struck by the accounts given ol feats of strength, etc., of the life actors ot those times. The suits of armor worn, would certainly indicate the possession ot greater physical strength than is devel oped by men in these latter days. What wrought the change? Men lived in the merry days a more out-door life than this advanced civilization of ours can af ford. There is a greater consumption of brain matter, and that increased demand on mental and physical power necessi tates the use of a pure vegetable stimu lant tonic, such as the Home Stomach Bitters. l-l!)-12t. Thrown From a Ladder. Mr. Stouer, tho painter, came near lossing his life while at work at Oal Igher's mill yesterday morning. A it was be sustained injuries w hich will con line him to liis bed for severel weeks, lie was painting tha cornice on the levee front of the mill, when the drayman for the New York store drove up, and stoi piug his mule, went into the mill. During his absence the mule became restless, and began moving about and in so doing the tail of the dray struck the ladder on which Mr. Stouer was standing, knock ing it from under him. Mr. Sioner fell a distance of thirty feet, to the hard plank platform below. In the fall his h it shoulder was dislocated, and though no bones were bioken, he wa badly bruised about his body and limbs. II was removed to his home on Eighteenth street, where he received proper medical treatment. MASK KTAlK.tir.XT.

A kind of a thaw ycsleruay, and tho urn seemed to favor the same Early in the morning the levee was visited by many spectators, wishing to view the Ohio covered with Immense Held of floating ice. The sight was truly grand for as far as the naked eye could observe, the ice held complete sway, As it parsed, a null sound accompanied it, and each piece seemed endeavoring to pass the other as it it was but too anxious to visit a wanner climate where it might wipe out its existence. All day the swift current earrled this mighty weight and threatened destruction to everything w ithin its reach In the morning the ferry boat belonging to Mr. Vernon camo in sight, having been taken from its mooring by the ice. After a little work it was loaded on the other side by the Three States. Many li t boats and old wrecks sped swiftly by alter taking view ol" our city, only to be rescued after reaching the sunny south The ferry boat Nelly Thomas was sold for $150 to Win.

Lou Bouse, valued at $7,000 and insured for $.3,000 From the Louisville Cmtrirr-Juurnal : "F'or thirry-slx doys the Ohio has been calmly sleeping in its'littlo bed,' its head resting upon the pillow ol commerce, and its feet wrapt up in the blankets of trade. Old winter covered it over with Its quilts and counterpanes of ice and snow, and left it, as it were, blissful in silent repose. A change came o'er the spirit of its dreams and it awoke. It bosom swelled with such power as to bid navigation smile in hope and kiss its eyelids open from its long and lonely sleep. 1 1 burt from beneath its icy coverings, took tho pillow of commerce in one hand, the blankets of trade in the other ami came forth, bidding navigation proclaim that the sleep Is oyer and the Ohio is on the war-path."
