Accident at the Distillery. About four o'clock this morning the employes of the distillery were arroused by a commotion which sounded very much like, the building had lost its equilibrium and was falling to the earth. On examination it was fountl that a pivot supporting the main shaft which turns the stones ia the mill had become loosened and the Shaft had fallen outof place. The heavy5 piece-of if6n fell through the floor and caught in the balance wheel of the engine,-breaking out seven of the lar^e iron spokes. The belt!which runs the governor of the engine slipped from its plaee, and the ponderous machine began to run at a ^reptly increased rate of speed. Tiie engineer,, as soon as the room was do f%r free from pieces of flying iron as to allow his approach, ran to the throttle to shuj off the. steam, and while in this position an iron bar flew past his head and broke the goyernor completely off, thus alllowing him: to miraculously escape. The damage to the machinery will cause a delay of aboiit five or six days befoi1^ repairs can 'be sufficient to allow work to continue. Fortunately no one was injured by the mishap

Somebody has daid that a big man call ing hitiiself "Young," arid the most influential member of the Republican party, bad the impudence to approach Mr. Jas. Johnson, who was at that time a candidate before -the Republican Convention for Congress, and proposed to him that if he (Mr. Johnson) would promise him (the "little fat man'.' from the First ward) the Postoffice should lie (Johnson) be elected, that he would give him this county in convention. Mr. Johnson spurned the offer, and the "little fat man" from thb First ward wept, bitter tears of remorse, and the consequence was that he went for Rhodes on the first ballot. Such are the patriots having only the true faith to look after. Better were such men kicked out of the party and down into the river.

It is reported that a grand Republican rally is again to be attempted Under the auspices of the Young Men's Republican Club, so-called. It is to be hoped that the next attempt Will not be so barren of success as the last one was. The pix or eight young men (85. and upward) should consult the rank and file of the party—the men who have made the party what it is. and without whom the six or eisrht young men (older, however, than Jefferson was when he wrote the Declaration of Independence) could only make a grand fizzle. The six or eight "young men" who have been taking the responsibility of speaking for inore than 600 young "stalwarts,*' shbuld be a little more careful how they use their charge, else the "recoil" will hurt hem. I suggest that unless the regu lar county executive committee looks after these six or eight young men, they will do the grand old party irreparable injury. This is the opinion of many Fourth warders. count SEWS.

NEW YORK, June 28.—At about 5 o'clock this afternoon the steamboat Seawanhaka,vwhich makes daily trips through Hell Gate, carrying business men froiii the city to their homes along the South shore of the sound took fire while passing Hell Gate. She carried her usual complement of passpngers, including well-known persons of New York, aihong 'tlieni' beingMr. Charles A. Dana, editor of the Sun MrJ S. L. M, Barlow, the lawyer W. R. Grace, shipping merchant James E. Ward, shipping n\erchfmt, aud. others equally well known, ^hcre were also,many women and children aboard.

A sti® breeze rapidly swept the flames across the boat, and the terrified passengers began to leap into the water. Some were burned to death others drowned. The captain bravely stuck to his post and held the ftteru of his boat for the sunkenl meadows: on the Ward's Island side. SL« had only half a mile to go, and she went it under full head of steam. Passongers were all the while dropping overboard,' and the appalling cries of those who were perishing by tiautcs and water arose over the din of the conflagration. Mr. Dana and Mr. Barlow were saved. Mr. Grace is missing. About forty lives'were lost. At midnight eleven bodies were recovered. ,)

was held over the body of Geo, Elliott this morning, and the Coroner rendered a verdict that he came to his death by his own hand. After the inquest the boay was dressed and placed in a coffin. He was buried at three o'clock this afternoon.

During the inquest Miss Dacy, Elliott's victim, was rational, and made the following statement: "George came into the house and asked me to go into the bed-i room with him, as he wanted to see me on1 private business. I hesitated a moment, and then bethought myself and obeyed. When I entered the bedroom the conversation began by his saying: 'Do you want to die?' To which I replied: "No, of course not.' He then said: 'How long do. you expect to live? 'Why, George," said I, 'several years I am young, and, indeed, we are both young.' He then asked me to marry him, to which I said: 'Yott can't support yourself, ahd your habits are bad when I marry it ^111 be a man whose morals are good, and who can support me.' 'Then,' said he, Will you promise me never again to keen company with any man but me?' I replied, sir.' Jump ing to his feet, hie drew his revolver and shot me. When the first ball struck me I fell on the floor upon my face, and attempted to get up, and I put my hand to my wound. When he fired the second time I dropped to the floor again, and I saw him put a revolver to his own head and shoot. He then fell heavily over on me. I was bleeding badly, but mapaged to roll him off me, and made an attempt to get to the door, when my sister broke it open, and I fell prostrate into her arms. When I came to consciousness I was in the.hand8 of the physician."

It is wonderful how &he clings to life. Should she live through to-night, her physicians think there will be hopes.

A fflMonrl Tragedy.- Wlfe Murder. HARRISONVILLK, Mo., June 28.—A fearful tragedy occurred yesterday near Crescent Hill, twenty miles south of this city. Wm. Vanmeter, a farmer of considerable wealth and influence, got into an altercation with two neighbors named Blount about some stock, when Vanmeter went to the house, and, returning with a breech loading shot gun, emptied the contents of each barrel into the two Blount's. Allen Blount, the father of the two voung men saw the trouble and reachea theie just in time to receive a heavy charge of large shot which Vanmeter had prepared for him. The murderer fled. The two young men may possibly recover, but Allen Blount is in a dying condition. The excitement is intense, and opinions differ, but your reporter gives the outlines of the affair as well as he could obtain them.

John Dougherty was lodged in jail this place yesterday charged with killing his wife, at East Lynne, this city. Dougherty and his wife ao not get along well together, and he would frequently abuse her. On Saturday night he went home drunk, armed with a bottle of whisky.
