Terrible Calamity on Lake Michigan. J SINKING OF THE STEAMER LADY EL- j GIN. Over Three Hundred Lives Lost.; CHICAGO, Sept. 8,1860. The steamer Lady Elgin -/.as run into this | morning by a schooner off VYaukegou, and 6unk i within twentj minutes after the collision took I place. She had upward of 350 passengers aboard, including several military and sre companies.— Only seventeen passengers have been saved as tar as known. 001. Lumsden, of the New Orleans Picayune, and faui'ly arc supposed to be among tb o loU ones. CHICAGO, Sept. 9.—The clerk of the steam er Lady Elgin, who is among the survivors, makes the following statement. "The Lady Elgin left Chicago atha.t yast eleven o'clock on Friday for Lake Superior.-- Among the passengers were the members of the Union Guard, of Milwaukee, oompwrng part of some two hundred and fifty exeursunists from that city At half past two o'clock this (S>at urda>) morning, the schooner Augusta, of Os wego, came in collision with the Lady Elgin when about ten miles from shore. The vessel struck the steamer at. the midships gangway on the larboard side. The two vessels separated instautly, and the Augusta drifted by in the darkness At the moment of the collision there was music and danciiig going on in the forward cabin. In an instant after the crash all was still, aud in half an hour the steamer sunk. I passed through the oabius; the ladies were pale but silent; there was not a cry or shriek. No sound was heard hut the rush of tbo steam and the surgo of the heavy sea. Whether the la dies were not fully aware of their danger, or whether their appaulling situation made them speechless, 1 cannot toll. "A boat was lowered at once, with the de sign of going lound to the larboard side to examine the leak. There were two oars be longing to the boat, but just at that moment some person possessed himself of one of them, and we were powerless to manage the boat.— We succeeded once in reaching the wheel, but were quickly drifted away, and were thrown upon tbo beach at Wiuetka. Only two boats were left on the steamer. One of them con tained tbirteen persoog, all of whom were saved. The other bore eight persons, bflt only four of them reached the shore alive, the four others being drowned at the beach. Before 1 left the steamer the engine had ceased to work, the fires having beeu extinguished. The force aud direction of the wind was such that the boats and fragments of the wreck were driveD up tbo lake and would reach the shore in the vicinity ofAVinetka. As 1 stood upou the beach, hope lessly looking back upon the route we had drift ed, I could see iu the gray light of the morning objects floating upon the water, and sometimes, J thought, buuiau bciDgs struggling with the waves. H. G. ULAKYL. FACTS ABOUT THE LADY ELGIN. The N. York Herald of yesterday says: Mr. Edwards, who lived for a number of years on the shores of Lake Michigan, has kindly furnished us with sundry partteu'ars in regard to the ili-fated steamer Lady Elgin and her csptj'm. They will no doubt be read with lively interest, in connection with the loss ot that unfortunate craft and hrr immense human freight. The Lady Elgin was Luilt in Canada about nine or ten years ago, and named aftar the wife of the then Governor General of British Amer ica, Lord Elgin. She was a side-wheel mail steamer, of about 300 feet in length, and one thousand tone burthen. She was a fast and favorite boat, and went on three or four excur sions annually. For the first five years after her construction the Lady Elgin was employed in the Canadian traffic of the lakes, and carried the mails along the northern shores, while the Grnd Trank Railway, which now performs that service, was yet incomplete, or even in embryo. Four or five years ago she was purchased by Hubbard, Spencer, & Co., of Chicago, to whom she belonged till the calamiry which it is our painful duty to record to-day put au end to the history of her now tragically famous career. When she passed into the hands of the Chicago firm ot Hubbard, Spencer & Co., Capt. John Wilson becarno her commander, in whioh post he continued up to the time ot b or loss, and it is to be feared that be has undoubtedly shared her melaocholy fate. Capt. Wilson was a gen tleman of ten years' experience in the naviga tion of the upper lakes, a fiue, off-hand, and vigilant man, and a popular commander among travellers on Lake* Michigan and Superior.— He was also a man of family, his family resid ing in Chicago. Since the Lady Elgin became the property of her last owners she tras been engaged io the travel between Chicago and Bayfield, on Lake Superior, about one hundred miles from the head of navigation of that inland sea. She used to oall at the most prominent ports aod harbors lying between Chicago aod Bayfield to land and receive mails, passengers, specie, and other freight. This last was in a groat meau sure copper on the downward trips, the products of the mines of the giant of the lakes. The ports at which she always stopped were Mar qaetto, portage Entry, Copper Harbor, Eagle River, and Ontonagoo, and on ber laat sad fatal trip she bad passed all of these places, and tad, therefore, a vast uumber of passou gera on board. Tbe Lady Elgin used to make three similar excursions, annually, to tbe one in which she was engaged at tbe time of her loss. The last was iuvaribly tbe one on which she couveyed the largest uumber of excursionists and pas sengers. It was on tbe last excursion trip of the season she was employed when she met with her calamitous end uolooked-for fate, it is believed that the Lady Elgio was insured, hut this is uot certain.

From the time I first discovered its dropping, however, up to the time of its total dis appearance, I employed everything I could think of, being a professional man myself, and, as I thought, understanding the nature of the disease, but was finally defeated in every prescription ad vanced.

The gentleman's nanni is Bradford, and as he is very well known in our adjoining counties, many persons can testif yto the truth of this statement; I give it to you at the request of Mr. Bradford. You can sell a great deal of your Hair Restorative in this aud the adjoining counties if you have the proper agents. Youis, &c., THOMPSON SURGHNOK. DR. WOOD : Dear Sir : Permit me to express the obligations I am under for the entire restoration ot my hair to its original color; about the time of my arrival in the United States it was rapidly becoming gray, but upon the application of your "Hair Re storative" it soon recovered its original hue. I consider your Restorative as a very wonderful in vention, quite efficacious as well as agreeable. S. THALBERG.

The minions of the National Administration, discovering that they caunot effect a fusion of all the factions in New York opposed to the Republican organization, have concluded to transfer their degrading influences t> Penn sylvania, and thus make the Old Keystone St,to the battle field. For this purpose, thousands of dollars are being put in circula tion, as a corruption fund, to pay men either to circulate falsehood or cease in the.uttcrauce of the truth. They have abaudog.eff N. York because the Republicans of the Empire State have proved their ability to defeat the faction# opposed to them, either in fusion, or when scattered into fragments, as they arc, by the baseness, iaconsistency and difference iu the priuciples which they advocate. In Penn sylvania they hope to delude the peoplo by af fecting the election of Henry 1). Foster, aud vbeu that is accomplished, they calculate on an easy victory in November.
