The fearful gale which swept over Hie
lakes on Tuesday night and Wednesday of
last week was tbo heaviest sinco;t!ie memor
able storm of 1844. The coast or the whole
chain of lakes is wreck' strewn. The Buf
falo Express says the lesson of this terrible
storm is, most emphatically, that iron is
the proper material for the construction of
lake craft. Staunch wooden vessels, built
of the toughest oak, went to pieces upon
reefs which would have merely indented, or
at least broken a compartment of the iron
propellers. The Express says of the nu
merous smaller crafts which were wrecked,
there was scarcely one wbirh would not
have bad a fair chance of surviving the
gale bad It been properly built of iron wi h
water tight compartments. In the British
Islands iron bas almost entirely superced
ed wood as ship building material. If iron
vessels are tbe best'for open sea, the late
storm bas emphasized tbe fact that they are
still more so for the swarming inlund com
merce of tbe lakes.

The latest intelligence from the Red Riv
er insurrection says tbe leaders of tbe re-
bellioo bave taken possession of the stores
of tbe Hudson Bay Company from which
daily rations are issued. Dr. Brown, pub
lisber ol tbe Norwester and Pioneer at
Wennepeg, bas been arrested for refusing
to print a proclamation for tbo Insurgents,
and tbe printers were forced by an armed
guard to put the proclamation to press, and
it baa been posted in various parts of the
settlement. Passes are required from all
and the malls are not allowed to leave
without close scrutiny. Meantime, Mc-
Dougall remains iu his quarters in Dakota.
A bouso In St. Paul, largely connected
with the Red river trade, bas private ad
vices that there is an organization ofScotch,
including a considerable body or half breeds
incommnicalion with McDougull, prepared
to take advantage of any reaction in his bo
half. Fort Garry and the whole country is
in the possession of the rebels. Tbe object
is not to throw off allegiance to the queen,
bnt to oppose annexation to Canada.
Prison reformers would do well to remetn
ber that the criminal classes are addicted
to the iiso or tobacco mure gonerally than
others. Concurrent testimony or superin
tendents or prisons, bouses or rofuge and re
form, shows that tobacco is the modern sol
ace In ooiifloiiment;as it is the exhilarunt In
reedom, and tbo cutting olfof a supply of
the weed, makes patients and prisoners ner
vous, restless and discontented. Tbe use or
tobacco was prohibited Tor a month at the
Boy's Reluge at Rochester, New York, re
cently, aud it was found that Insubordina
tion became genorul, nod escapes frequent
while tbe efforts made to secure tobacco
clandestinely were such as would ensure
suecoxs in life, if displayed Iu business pur-a'iiU.

Mr. AlbtrtD. Blrhardson Shot,?
Daniel iHcFarlaad.
A few minutes after 5 o'clock Thursday
evening lait, Albert D. Richardson, the
wett known neivspapcr;;correspondont, was
shot by Daniel Mcb'arlund.' This is t be sec
ond time that Mr. Richardson bas been
wounded by I be same person. The first as
sault occurred one night in Amity street, in
tbe springef 1867, as he was escorting to
her home Mrs. McFurland, then an actress
at tbe.Wihter Garden Theatre, aftrr her du
ties on the stage. Tbo second attack, ns
above referred to, took place last nigbt in
the.'ptiulication office of tbo Tribune. In
tbe interim between these events, Mrs. Mc
Farland bad taken measures for a divorce
from her husband, and had recently obtain-
edMtat.tbe hands of some Indiana Court.
While bis wife bad been about this business
Mr. McFarland had been nursing his wrath
against the supposed author of his domestic
unhappiness, ami meeting bim Thursday
night, deliberately attempted to lake Ins
life. Tbe tiist wound was a mero fl eb
stroke in the thigh, of which Richardson
soon recovered. Tbo last is a more serious
matter, tbe bull entering the stomach, and
Inrlotlug injuries which are likely to end
fatally, As Richardson grimly remarked,
"Maok has evidently improved us a murks
man." The cause or the quarrel between Mr.
Richardson and Mr. McFarland Is variously
stated by the friends of tbe parties. Pir
son who have known the latter for many
years, speak or him as a man much sinned
against. On the other band Mr. Richard
son's friends justify him, and set down Mc
Farland as a nerer-do-well, who mads his
wife's life intolerable by bis passionate
outbursts, till filially compelled ber to leave
bim.

litle war.
From the A". 1", Ertniny OammnnwaU
The publichave often been obliged In
disapprove of certain doings of "tbe Erie
people," as Messrs. Fisk and Gould are
popularly called. Theru is one movement,
however, that these gentleman are making,
iu which they will have tbe best wishes of
the majority of the public. Commodore
Yanderbiit lat yearfl tried to get possession
of the Erie Railroad, us he bad already
dona of the Hudson Rivi r and the New
York Central. Had be succeeded, he would
bavo beoomo the monopolist of every ave
nue from tho West to ibis part. All traCc
would have to pay toll to him, and that
healthful competition which is so essential
to tbo public good would bave been at an
end. Mr. Yanderbiit, conscious of bis finan
cial strength, set to work to buy up all the
slock that Iih cnulil(get, and spent several
millions of dollars In this effort. Tbe Erie
Company, claiming that J they Iliad legal
power, issued a large amount of new slock.
The Commodore, finding that his purse was
not long enough lo buy the new stock as
well as tbe old, gave up the attempt, ami
several.'eultsjwere at once brought against
tbe Erio Company, and the disgraceful
scandals of this litigation are fresh in the
meinuiies of our readors. It is remarkable,
however, that although Commodore Yan
derbiH's name, was not seen iu any of these
suits, still tbe Company paid four million
ol dollara.lo him, aud t!io imits were all
coinpi utilised or withdrawn.
Now all of this was done by tho old
Board of Directors or tho Erie road. The
present board repudiated this bargain, and
bring a suit to recover tho Company's
money. Tho Commodore was in court mi
Saturday, and his examination amount
substantially to this: That he sold at 80,
50,000 shares ol Ilia Erie stock he bought
last year; that lbs stock was sold to Daniol
Drew, and not to the Erio Railroad Com
pany, and that he engaged to sell 60,000
Bbares more at the same price, if required
to do so, within twelve months; that in
consideration nr these stipulations ho ' received-
3,5011.000 In cosh, ond $500,000
worth or bonds of the Boston, Hartford and
Erie Company. The whole case turns on
two points: ttrat, whether tho transaction
is one which the Erie Board were legally
competent lo perform, and secondly, wheth
er II competent, the Erio Company did act
ually cooplete tbe negotiation, or whether
it was done by Daniel Drew in the personal
individual character. This case is not to
be tried bpforo a jury, the motion for that
purpose having been refused last week.
