lis GOT HOf OS THE WOOL. "Look ft!
left nigger, whar you awellin' to!" was
the unceremonious salutation of a saddle-colored
gentleman to an excruciating
ly dressed darkey, whose complexion
iras not many shades removed from
that of a recently polished stove pipe,
as p)9 latter "pusson" made a graceful
swing from the promenade on Fourth
street where be had been exhibiting
himself for a couple of hours, to the
envy of the "Bucks," and the fascina
tion of a score of "noes gals" in Mc-
Alister street..
"Who-oo-o you call nigger, sahT"
" Was the indignant response, with a ma
jestic roll of a pair of eyes with a great
deal of white and a very little of any
ether color in them. .
"Why, I call you nigger," was the
flat-footed reiteration of "saddle color,"
as he recognized in "store pipe," a
"gemman" who, two years ago exer
cised his genius about town in the white
washing and boot blacking line, but
who since mat ume naa Deen "abroad,
and had cultirated a mustache and for
eifjn airs.

"Yes you is a nigger, puffin but a
Bigg1"; if you ain't a nierffer, what is
you?",
"Ise a Quarterroon, sah."
"A what?" -
"Ise a Quarterroon. sah."
"How you Gfit to be a Quadderroom?"
"Why my mudder was a white wo
man, an my farder was a bpanyid, sab;
dat how I git to be a Quarterroon."
"Whar you git dat 'plexion?"
"I git urn in de Souf, sah, 'feet ob
de climate, every pusson in de Souf got
'em' san." - .
"Whar you git dat wool? say, whar
you git dat wool?"
"I git dat by a by a-a-a accidum on
my mudders side, sah." (Stovepipe
siisntlv confused. )
"Now, how you git dat wool on
your mudder's side, if your mudder was
a white woman, say bow you git dat
wool? '
"Bekase she got frighten afore I was
bornd?"
"How she git frighten, em?"
"Why she git chased by a black man,
sah."
"Look a hea, nigger, I dussent want
to be pusson al. but, from de 'pearance
nb your mudder's son, dere ain't no
doubt dat de time your mudder was
ehased by a black man, she was over
tookd." A moment after you might hare
played dominoes on the coat tails of the
"South'n gemman," as he streaked it
up McAlistea street, and dived into the
aoor way ot that aristocratic caravansa
ry for the accommodation of distin
guished sunburnt pussons, known as the
Hotel Dumas. Cin. Com.
Sivoulik Development. An organ
grinder has been arrested in Philadel
phia, charged with robbing the dwelling
of Mrs. J. B. Smith, sometime since, of
$2,000 worth of jewelry. He alleges,
in bis defense, that at the time of the
robbery a man asked him to go with him
to carry some goods, stating that he had
just been married to a pretty young
lady. He accompanied him, when the
man, leaving him on the outside, entered
the house of Mrs. S., and bringing out
the articles, gave them to him and told
him to take them to a good boarding
house and he would pay him $2,000.
He did so, and was joined by the man
and his pretended wife, and remained
there for ten days. In the meantime
the organ grinder informed the police
that the thieves bad gone to New York,
whither an officer repaired in company
with the informant, but after remaining
in that city for several days they gave
up the search for them and returned to .
PhiladelDhia; on reachin? which the
organ grinder joined the thieves and
told them how he had deceived the po- j
j:ce r
Soon' after, the thieves, accompanied
their confidant, lea in a wagon, and
proceeded to Harrisburg, Cleveland, Al-,
bany, fec finally bringing np at Port-1
land, Maine, where they engaged pas-',
for Europe. The organ grinder,
however, now became anxious about
the ?2,000 which had been promised
him, and by threatening to inform the ,
nolice. induced the thieves to give him
8500 in cash and a number of stolen
articles, consisting of jewelry, watches, ,
Ac. He then left the Darties. not. how-
ever, before the man gave him a bottle
of "medicine," which he recommended
him to take, a little at a time, after
Philadelphia. This medicine, j
which was fortunately not taken, proved j
to be strychnine. He reached Philadel-'
phia a few days ago, when he was ar- i
rested, the articles and money given ;
found in his possession, and he was .
committed
to await further develop-
ments.

DZSYBDCTIOX OF THS WHSIU3TO SuS-
Fshsiob? Eriogx. During the forenoon
of yesterday a high storm of wind pre
vailed, which, towards noon, increased
to" almost a hurricane along the valley
of the river, breaking vessels at their
moorings, and causing great devasta
tion. About 3 o'clock we walked up
towards the suspension bridge, and went
upon it, intending to walk across' it for
pleasure, as we have frequently done,
enjoying the cool breeze and the undu
lating motion of the bridge. - We dis
covered that one of the guys, or small
iron cables, extending from the flooring
to the wall near the base of the east
abutment, was broken from its fasten
ings, and several of its stones wrenched
apart, About a hundred yards further
on, we Baw that one, and only one of
me suspenders to which the floor is
swung, was broken. These were but
slight damages, but as we bad never be
fore seen the bridge affected even to
this extent by gales, and as it began to
sway violently, we thought it prudent to
retrace our steps. . We bad been off
the flooring only two minutes, and was
on the Main street when we saw persons
running towards the river bank; we fol
lowed just in time to see the whole
structure of cables and flooring, heaving
and dashing with tremendous force.
For a few minutes we watched it
with breathless anxiety, lunging like a
ship in the storm; at one time it rose to
nearly the height of the towers, then
fell and twisted and writhed, and was
dashed almost bottom upwards. At
last there seemed to be a determined
twist along the entire span, about one
half of the flooring being nearly re
versed, and down went the immense
structure from its dizzy heighth to the
stream below, with an appaling crash
and roar. Nearly the entire structure
struck the water at the same instant,
dashing up an unbroken column of
foam across the river, in the heighth of
at least forty feetl
Amid the confusion of the wreck, we
cannot accurately estimate the extent of
the damage. All the cables, except
two on the north side, are torn from the
tower. On the south side, all the cables
except one small one, are torn fipro
their anchorage in the heavy masonry
on Main street, and with such violence
were they jerked from this piece of
masonry, that one stone weighing about
1500 pounds, was thrown a distance of
some feet. The large iron gate at the
end of the bridge was shivered to
atoms, and the toll-house completely
demolished, Mr. James Bell, the toll
keeper, making a very narrow escape
with his life. On the island at the west
end of the bridge, we learn that but one
Labfe broke from the anchorage.
The
entire wood work lies in the river and
on the shores. The cables also stretch
across the river, sunk to the bottom.
So far as we can discover, only two of
the cables snapped asunder, and that on
the outside of the towers, the rest of
the breakage being at their connections
with the anchors.
We witnessed the terrific scene, and
saw that it was brought about by the
tremendous violence of the gale. The
great body of the flooring and the sus
penders, forming something like a
basket swung between the towers, was
swayed to and fro like the motion of a
pendulum. The cables on the south
side were finally thrown off the apex of
the eastern tower, retaining their posi
tion on the tower of the opposite side of
the river. This destroyed the equilib
rium of the swinging body; and each
vibration giving it increased moraem
tum, the cables which sustained the
whole structure were unable to Tesist a
force operating on them in so many dif
ferent directions, and were literally
twisted and wrenched from their faslen-
ln? .

and public spirit of our citizens will re
pair the loss as speedily as any commu
nity could possibly do.
It is a source of gratulation that no
lives were lost by this disaster. We
were among the last persons who left
the bridge from this side, and although
many on both sides were just waiting
g upon it, they were fortunately
laeierrea. we saw no one noon it
when it fell, and bo far as we have
learned, one little girl, daughter of Mr.
iuKens, on the island, is the only one
who was injured, and she not danger-

DrmcuLTY with Spam. If we can
credit -the reports that come thick and
fast from Washington, our government,
as was predicted, has' become involved
serious difficulties with Spain, on ac
count of. Cuban difficulties. It seems
that our Filibustering Minister at Mad
rid, Soule, has gone beyond bis instruc
tions in his demands on the Spanish
Government. The Cincinnati Enquirer
says:
It is believed, however, in political
circles at Washington, that Soule, in his
demands upon the Spanish Court for re
dress and indemnity, exceeded bis dele
gated powers, and probably has com
promised himself; for it is now positive
ly affirmed, in the face of denial, that he
had demanded peremptorily the recall of
the Captain General of Cuba, which de
mand had been just as peremptorily
refused by the government at Madrid.
This places pur Minister in a close
corner he can wait for orders from
home, or be can ask for his passports.
A writer from Washington, to the Hal
timore Sun, thinks Soule will not be re
quired to ask for such documents, but
thinks they will be handed bim, with
out asking. Our relations with that
power, therefore, are in a most critical
position. Our government has taken
such a decided stand that it cannot re
cede a single step with honor. On the
other hand, it is scarcely probable, look'
ingattheprominentcharacteristicsof the
Spanish people, that such sweeping de
mands will be agreed to. They are, in
this view of the case, at Washington,
treating the matter as a serious thing,
and entertaining very grave fears that
war will ensue.
Pacific Railroad. In the speech
made by Gov. Stevens to the people of
San Francisco, explaining the results of
bis exploration of northern for Puget's
sound, he said
Gentlemen, we have gained these re
sults - from that exploration. We have
established the entire practicability of a
railroad route from the great lakes to
Puget's Sound by the Columbia river.
We have no grades over fifty feet to the
mile. We have one tunnel of two and
half miles in length. I recollect the
exact configuration of the country; it is
the route of the two great rivers across
the country, the Mississippi and Colum
bia. Going West, we follow the flow
ing water going East, we follow flow
ing water. There it is all in one brief
