Pavrtlcmlars of tbe Sinking of the Ex ctwalon steamer Sototo Dlatrcaaing Iaa of liite From Pittsburgh papers wo glean tho following particulars of the terrible disaster at Mingo Junction, on the Ohio river, on the 4Ui of July : The Scioto, a sidewhTCl steamer funning between Whoeliug and Matamoras, had been Ott An excursion to HonndsTillo, under the auspices of the Wellsville Cornet Band, and had left East Liverpool about 7 o'clock a. m. taking 200 passengers aboard thore, AtWoUsvillb about HOP or 400 nlofo gat aboard, with a band leading the boat to the guards with a mass of men, vomeu and cbildron. Tne si earner lauded at Stenbenville between 9 and 10 o'clock, and refused to take any passengers tboro, although several men and boys managed to clamber over the goard-i 0ht Went on to Moundsville, and, teturiiittg in the evening, had reached a point Just above Cros crook, on the West Virginia aide ot toe river, when she mot the John Loin is . coming down in the middle of the stream. Tkr latter is a small stern-wheel boat) which blies between Wheeling and Martin's Ferry, and had been to Stenbenville with an excursion ot about 200 people from the latter place. It was about 8:30 o'clock when chc came in right of tho Scioto. The clouds had mostly blown away and it was quite light on the riven The Looms apni to have signaled first according to regnUtiohs, with one blast to pass on the left in a few minutes the Scioto responded with two, and made for the middle of the river. The Lorn as then gave two whistles, bnt the boats kept coming closer and closer togaihen Orders were given to back the engines, oitt it was too late to do any Rood. Tbe boats came together with a tremendous crash, the Lomas striking the Scioto on the larboard, or left-hand side, just about the ash-box, tearing into her guards and making a large hole in tha hull, through whicll she began taking water at a rapid rate. As may be imagined, the contusion on board was terrible. The number of women and children on board was especially large, and as tho boat began to settle at once the scena was heartrending parouts looking for their children and viee versa, hiHbnudit fof their wives and wives for thuit husbands, and prayers and cries filled tho air. Tho officers, to their credit, tried to keep the poople cool, with the usual result in such cases nobody paid much attention to them. The boat bejrnn going down at once, and in tbreo iniu nUi8 there was five feet or watef in tho cabin. Those Ou the lower deck (not less than fifty in number) oegan jumping into the river, and tho example was contagious. Mnny followed them like a flock of sheep, while, otheri more cool mndo their way to the hnrricano roof, where there was safety an long as it would hold up under the weight. There were a donen or Alteon men lying drunk on tbe lower deck, and all' were doubtless hurried into eternity without, warning. The river groined black with human beings slid debris of all kinds, aud It will bo days at least before tho full extent of lho disaster is known. There were three boats on the Scioto, and thoy were at once lowered, lathe excitement tbe fh-Ht was overcrowded and swamped, but it is believed that none of the inmates were lost, Tho other two boats were managed better, and did good work in rescuing passengers. The Lomas was not much damnged by tho accident and, after lauding her crowd on tho West Virginia shore, returned to the help or those on the hnrricano dock of the Scioto. It required the greatest rare in doing this work, first to avoid turning over the Scioto, and second, to avoid a rush from tho Scioto to the Lomas, which might have been fatal. Four trips wore made, and those on the boat were finally landed on the Ohio shore. , . . , . The loss of life cannot yet bo ascertained. There waa no registry of the passengers, and the loss can only bo determined by tho failure of the missing to come home. Fourteen bodies have been recovered up to this writing, and thirty-three are known to be missing. The total loss will exceed 100. The crowd in the boat was certainly not less than 500, and probably numbered 600 or 700. ADDITIONAL SEWS. Most of the convicts in the Maasaihnsetta penitentiary struck tor the holiday recreation of one hour which was denied them on the Fourth, and demolished their cell furniture.... A brother of ex-Gov.

Chicago HHbune: "Owe dispatches report the rapid progress of wheat harvesting in many localities, and all give an encouraging forecast of the oats, rye and corn crops.

Edwin Cowles, of Cloveland, has instituted a libel suit for 25,000 against Bishop Gilmonr, on account of a letter published referring to the invalid daughter of the editor.

In reporting the death of a man in New York, 63 years old, who hod been a strict vegetarian for about forty years, the attending physicians stated the deceased had "snffered from general debility, partly the result of peculiar notions in living' A vegetarian, however, might claim the man's life had showed his peculiar notions to be not without reason. And certainly to live to a ripa age lifter forty years practice of " peouliir uotions" is a reasonably fair prooJ that those notions are worthy of rosiitctinl consideration, Tnav begin io regard bicycles and tricycles aa a peat in ogland and wan(f

THE 6L0RI0PS FOURTH. Independence day was celebrated almost universally this year. Throughout the country the people were unusually profuse in their demonstrations of patriotic enthusiasm, and in tho Old World, wherever a colony or knot of Americans waa found, thoro was somo observance of the great day. At Chicago the principal objects of interest were the raoos, which drew out 16,000 people, tho championship ball games, attended by 20,000, and the parade and pionio of the workingmen, in which about 12,000 participated. At Indianapolis an infantry drill attracted spectators estimated at 30,000. Tho Bain Koaavcs, of St Louis, were given the honors in tho contest with the Lackey Zouaves, of Chicago.

Over a thousand persona were present Marie Roze, Emma Tnursby, and Minnie Hank sang national songs, and dancing was kept up all night The Duko and Duchess of Sutherland were among tho guests, as also Edwin Booth. Consul Packard gave a banquet to American ship masters at Liverpool, and toasted President Arthur. There was a celebration at Carlsbad in which thirty Chicagoans participated. The day was attended, as usual, by a number of accidents in different parts of the country, tho most serious of which occurred on tbe Oino river. The staimor Htwlo, loaded with excursionists from Weilsviile, W. Vs., collided With tbe towboat John Lomas, opposite Mingo Junction, owing to a misundci standing as to signals. Within three minutes the steamer sank in fifteen feet of water, only the pilot house being visible.

An accident recently happened iu the Kingdom of Wurtomburg which caused quite a ripple in tho upper class of society thero at the time, A German Imvori, who had started with his wife to visit her home iu America, had got as far as the railway station when ho was arrested by his creditors, who supposed hu was fleeing the country never to return fur hu.vv rlnhtu which ho had

He bad no means with him to pay the demands, neither had his wife, and as their trunks had been sent on in advance, aud the arrangemeuta all made for the journey) ho told his wife to keep on and ho would meet her in Liverpool before the sailing of their steamer after having made some arrangement with his creditors. This wife went on to Liverpxil and this baron stayed behind, but it was four or five days before he was aole to satisfy his creditors, eituof by promises of the interposition of some kind friend bo aa to be able to depart. While thus detaiued, the pocket money his wife had given him to pay his expenses to Liverpool had disappeared, bnt another compassionate friend was induced to loan him 8500, by giving so Cttrity on his wif Va furniture and silverplate so that be was enabled to start on his journey.

In a few inst'uic s this had been done at a great ex-,.'enK(-, and (he number of acres increased iiiit the pri-c of cutting for tho entire mmUir might be decreased. A gontlo.111111 tro-ii the North had settled in the neifrlilmrhood where 1 spent some weeks, u ivmg bought about forty acres.

When it was done he had a view of only t e. s, ami had exposed his house to the hot beams of a semi-tropical sun. Besides what was thus purposely deftroyed, nearly every year thousands of acres of l''hr .da forests are destroyed by lire. A tow years ago, aud I believe at this lime, tho class of people kuown as "cowboys" were allowed at a stated time in tho year, and for a staled number of days, to set fire to the dry grass .vhcrcvt r they wished, in order that they might obtain tho scattered spears of uiung grass that would immediately spring up. These fires soon got beyond the control of the "cowboys" indeed, those fellows felt themselves under no obligations to confine them within limits and swept over hundreds of miles of

country, destroying not alone millions of.

valuable trees, each one worth more than

n single head of cattle, but thousands of

or five sons aud a daughter, several', years, and that year her groves were beginning

to bear, xney bad just bnislieu a comfortable house, but had not yet moved

everything into it. She was happy, and

the future looked bright to her. Less than two weeks later, on our return, as wo sailed up tho river and approached

City Point, we saw two ladies one the daughter of the widow, tha other a visitor sitting in a hoat, anchored nut from

the land, and witti crying. The rail feuce a few yards from the water was

afire, and the face of tho young man who

was trying to save even the fence was terribly burned. We were told that two hours before a forest fire had jumped

over a cleared space of a hundred or

and that everything., waa bunted, and theit orange aud otliet groves were do stroyed. The widow lady was at Sand

mh-forluuc that had befallen her, she was ' a most heart broken. To deliberately set a fire, knowing

what the possiole consequences may be, is certainly a crime, and Florida and every other State ought to enact such laws as will protect the people from such outrages, and if the State Governments aw from any cauao unequal to the tusK, the nation as a Government ought to come to their assistance, for the forest dres are no respecters of State lines. Correipondence Cineinn ti Commercial, Forests tn the Boutlern States. A writer in the tutnber World gives the following interesting srmniary of the timber supply now in tho South : In Virginia and West Virginia, there are 40,000,000 acres of land, only 15,000. 000 of which have been improved, Most of this vast region is yet a dense undisturbed forest ot mighty timber trees awaiting the ax of the spoiler. " Though the ceaseless chopping of the oll-conqjering ax has been heard on the banks of the James river in the Old Dominion for the last 270 years, yet the timber thero is apparently inexhaustible still, and presents a formidable appearance." The large nnmber of rivers as well as railroads now makes much of tha Virginia timber accessible, as they are tidal streams almost to the very base of the Allegheny mountains. " Tbe entire region pierced by the Virginia and Tennessee, and Chesapeake and Ohio railroads is full of the grandest and wildest scenery, and yet untrodden by the foot of man, with countless thousands of acres of white, red and black oak, yellotv and white pine, ash, maple, cherry, chestnut, poplar, spruce and yellow and honey locust timber," The vast district in tne East, known as the Dismal swamp, will always iurnish an inexhaustible supply of timber, which springs up as rapidly as it is felled, Tho value of the Virginia lumber ttade is now Upward of $3,000,000 a year. Timber land in the East is worth about $15 an acre, and in the interior about $3, The making of nail-keg staves, fruit boxes, etc., is a rapidly increasing industry. North Carolina, immediately south, ' is one of the greatest shingle producing regions in the world." The State is famous for its enormous supplies of turpentine, tar, resin, charcoal and pine lumber and timber. The many rivers of South Carolina, adjoining, afford an inland navigation of thousands of miles, excluding railroads. Her stock of timber trees is ample, consisting of live oak, pine, palmetto and laurel, on tide water, and oaks, liMskory and pines iu the upper region. " Her stock of hickory is just beiug drawn on to supply the world with hammer, ax, Bpade, plow, mallet, hatchet, pick and sledge handles iu almost incalculable quantities, to say nothing of cogs, pullies, spokes, hubs, rims, tongues, shuttles, bobbins and many other labor-saving purposes." But of course it is useless to enumerate the millions of acres of most valuable timbers in all the Southern States. The supply now on hand and rapidly growing up would seem to bn ampl j for all future time, even if wo of the North are the spendthrifts we are accused of being. When the price of metals falls to reasonable figures, iron will bo largely used, instead of wood, for oars, bridges, railroad ties, plows, wagons, vessels, buildings, etc., as it is in other countries, and wilt be greatly preferrel. The sooner this becomes the case, the better for us sill. In the meantime there seems to 'be no immediate danger of a lumber i amine. What Is Fruit t It is very natural for editors to writa about such subjects as come up in conversation, or the things ho comes in contact with in his intercourse with the world. Lately the agricultural editor at his boarding house heard a friend make 11 statement that the pie being served was made of fruit. Another dispnted the position by stating that it was made of the stalks of rhubarb, or pie-plant. Of ccurse, Webster was referred to, to settle the dispute, when one of tho many lollies of that Yankee lexicon was discovered. The main definition of fruit is given as " Whatever the earth produces ior the nourishment of animal, or for clothing or profit, Among the fruits of thearthare included not only corn of s.U kinds, but grass, ootton, flax, grapes, 1. ud all cultivated plants," etc. So it was settled in council that pio-phtnt ia Iruifc.

Qermantown Telegraph. War on the Army Worm. Prof. 0. V. Riley writes in the Kurai New Yorker: To meet a general demand that will, probably soon be felt and made for thi best means of coping with the army worm, I would hern repeat in Condensed form what I have in previous years recommended. Expe rience has established, the fact that burning over a meadow, or prairie, or field of stubble, either io winter or spring, usually prevetits the worms from originating in such meadow or field. Such burning destroys the previous year's eti.lks and blades, and, as a consequence of what I have already stated, the nidi wliioh the female moth prefers. Burning as a preventive, however, loses much of its practical importance unless it is pursued annually, because of the irregularity' in the appearance of the worm in injurious numbers; judicious ditching, l e., a ditch with the side toward the field to be protected, perpendicular or sloping, under, will protect a field, from invasions from such other infested . region when the worms are inafoling. When they are collected in the ditch they may be destroyed either by covering them np with earth that is pressed upon them, by burning straw over them, or by pouring a little coal oil in the ditoh. A single plow furrow, six or eight inches deep, and kept friable oy dragging brush in it, has also been known to head them off. From experiments which I have made I am satisfied that where fence-lumber can lie easily obtained it may be used to advantage as a substitute for the ditch or trench, by being secured on fcdge and then smeared with kerosene or coal tar (the latter being more particularly useful) along the upper edge. By means of lath and a few nails tho boards may be so securecithat they will slightly slope away from -;he field to be protected. Such a barrier will prove effectual where the wormn are not too persistent or numerous. When they are excessively abundant, they will need to be watched, and occasionally dosed with kerosene to preve at them piling np even with the top of the board and thus bridging the hairier. The lumber is not injured for other purposes subsequently. The poisoning by spraying of Londonpurple or Paris-green water (made according to the well-known formula) at a few of the outer rows of a non-infested field that is threatened by invasions from an adjoining one may, under some circumstances, be w arranted as an expeditious and cheap mode of destruction, Finally, Mr. J. W. Sparks, of MurfreesIxiro, Term., has just sent me the following experience which I give for what it is worth : " The army-worm a making such inroads upon the wheat crop and other crops here in Middle Tennessee I thought I. would write yon and give tho process I have for ridding the wheat of these vagabonds. I take a rope about sixty feet long and cause two men to walk through the wheat field dragging the rope over the wheat. By this means you can go over . large field of wheat ra a few hours. The rope, dragging over the wheat, shakes the worms off on the ground, and they carl up and lw there for hidf an hour or more seem to be mad about t and then begin to move about hunting something to eat; but the larger cues are unable to climb the wheat stalks with all the blades off, so that yon get rid of the larger oues the first time going over; and the smaller oues can be shaken off so often that they cannot hurl, the wheat. If yon will mako known thin simple plan to the bcoton whero the worm is at work tho people can yet save their wheat I ani satisfied I will save mine. I am going over my whole srop twice a day. My wheat is looking splendid, and, if I succeed in whipping the worms, I will make a large yield. You shall have full reports at the proper time." lleecher and the Uambler. When tl.o lu ".

Plafa walla laTjua lsertllgat ta. It was pointed out long ago by psychologists thai, memory is a twofold prccess, comprising a oonaervation and a reproduction. It is the object of this troatise to show that the first of these processes, conservation, depend especially upon the phytdologioal function, ot nutrition, while tbe second, reproduction, is dependent upon general or local circulation. The power ot oonservntiam presupposes a primary ooodition that may be vaguely described as a ncennal constitution of the brain. Idiots ax the subjects of congenital amnesia, that is to say, of aat innate inability no fix impressions. Again, fetfigua in any foim, superindibiingaa it does aa abnormal cerebral condition, i detrimental, and sometimes fatal, to memory. Explicit testimony on this ppiat is supplied by the experience of Sir, JL Holland, who desoMided, on the aatme day, two very deep mines in the Harts toounfains, remaining undor ground aotzfe hocxs ia each. He telle us us that; while ia tho second mine, atd exhausted both from fatigue and inanition, he found it utterly impossibletotalk longer with the Oe rman inspector who aoeompaaied Jbim; every German word and phrase deserted bio recollection, and it was not until h4 bod taken food and wine and 'had been soma time at rest that he regained them. The oases where that arAsia baa been Observed to folf.o w cerebral shock ar also explained by most physiologists aa resulting from defective nutrition. It has been noted by Mr. Spenoer that highly nervous subjects, in whom the action of the heart is greutly lowered, habit nally complain of Toes of memory, a symptom which diminishes tut fast aa the mitnral rate of circulation is tvgataed. .Again, in fevers where the rapidity of the tsb eulationis excessive, the reproductive faculty is often raised to a high point of excitation, the most remote and trivial impressions being easily recalled. Exaltation of the memory ansae also when the circulation is increased, by stimulants, such as opram.

There are cases of temporary amnesia of a destrnctiv) character which seem to be only explicable upon, the theory thas the group of cells in which partrnotsa' impressions wi ire recorded have beaadsHtroyed or totclly tnmsformed. . In soeb instances it is not the reproduetiie fta i;Jty which is imfeebled, but tbeM tm aa ivctual loss of conservation; somatbin which once existed in the lnemdtr, apa formed an imt-trtant part ot its capaaal, has disappeared. Among the crises of incurable partial amnesia where th tosa was absolute, and complete re-edceatioa was necessary, is thatof ayoongniarried woman, who was seized during o:i finemen t with prolonged syncope, at tha end of which she tailed to recoUeot any of the events which bad ocrmralidnos her marriage, inclusive of Uiateereaoiay. She never recovered reoraUeotion of ffni period of her life, and although iih aocepted, on the testimony of bet hit ads, the fact that she was married and had a son, aba wan never able to realise bow she gained a husband and' gave hitib to a child. Another interesting m4ano is reported by Prof. William Shaipey. The patient was a young married woman, who for about six weeks remained ia continuous state of somnolence. Upao her recovery from the torpor the reoacd
