. Ice Gokof.8. Those peraous who passed over
be N. C railway and the P. A E. K. R. durltg
the past week, have witnessed sceties that will
undoubtedly be remembered during the remainder
of their live.. Never before has there been such
iorge of ice seen upon the Susquehanna. The
hear ice formed upon its bosom during the se
vere cold winter, and which partly moved off last
week, has caused the moil gigantic gorges that
have ever been w itnessed by the oldest inhabitants.
Be'aw this place several of the most formidable
gorges are formed, which appear of the most
threatening character, for the destruction of pro
perty when the floods shall move them down the
stream. Below the dam the public roads have
been obstructed by huge cake, of ice, and a gorge
is formed extending nearly to the middle of the
river. The ice has completely obstructed the
water on the cast side down to the bead of the
island, opposite Mulberry station, forming in
some places pyramids of ice from 10 to 25 feet
high. Iu this gorge arc a number of logs, sev
eral rafts of timber and parts of bridges. Along
the shores of the river there is a continuous wall
of ice. Above th bridge at Seliusgrove station
is another gorge, extending from the eastern
shore of the river unto the island. At this point
the ice is very thick, and, if a sudden rise should
occur, but little hopes are entertained for the
railroad bridge at that point. The piers are
very light, and the great force of the ice may
thove them from under the woodwork. In sev
eral places below this station the ice has not yet
been moved and remains unbroken, but several
miles further don u, to below Fisher's Ferry, con
siderable damage has been sustained along the
bank by the shoved ice. At the ferry, and for a
considerable distance below, the public road has
been entirely obstructed. On the islands oppo
site, the banks are covered with large cake, on
the easternshore, the low grouuds are submerged
with ice, which has been shoved over the bank,
destroying outbuildings in close proximity to
dwelling bouses. For miles, or as far as one can
see down the river, large pile6 of ice are formed.
Several small islands in the river appear lite
mountains, with icy pyramids from 10 to 20 fee1
in height. At Herndon considerable destruction
of property was caused. All the lands between
the railroad and tha river bad been submerged.
Many of the bouses on the river shore sustained i

The following preamble and resolutions were
adopted at a special meeting of Eastern Star
Lodge, No. 143, K. of P., in reference to the
death of our esteemed Bso. Fbancis Blciiek.
Whereas, by a disinsutiou of Divine Provl
dence. Francis Bucher, and houorible and re
peeled member of our Lodge, has been removed
from our midst, it is both right and proper thai
the Fraternity should manifest some expression
of its bereavement ; and, wherea, in the mysteri
ous ways of the ever-present God, we, as a Lodge,
are called upon to recognize the brokeu circle of
our Brotherhood ; therefore,
Resolved, That we have sustained a great loss
in the death of ourbrotber.Francis Bucher.whose
high character, during his career among lis as a
valuable citixen and worthy brother commanded
the respect of all who knew him, and especially
bound him with the bonds of love to ns, who are
no called upon to mourn his departure.
Resolved, That the memory of our esteemed
brother shall always occupy a prominent place
in the memories of our Lodge ; and that while
sorrowing liecause of this our but partially re
alized loss, we arc nevertheless comforted by the
thought that to him the call to bis eternal home
was not unwelcome ; that to him death was not
loss but gain.
Resolved. That we tender our deep sympathy
to the bereaved widow and family of our dear
brother, praying that he who doth all things well
may sustain them in their bereavement.
Resolved, That we wear the usual badge of
mourning for the space of thirty days.
Resolved. That a copy of these resolutions be
sent to the bereaved family and published in the
county papers.

on Wednesday evening, a number of families

four o'clock on Wednesday afternoon the ice
broke at this plae, and began moving. In n
shoit time a gorge was formed just above Milton,
and is) a few minutes the water commenced over
flowing the banks, aud the result is at this writing
(Thursday afternoon), nearly all the farm land
between Watsontown and Milton, on the east
side of the rive-, is overflown. The gorge re

Death or as Estimable Citizen. We ore
again called upon to record the death of uuu of
our oldest and most estimable citizens of Sun
bury. On Friday evening last, Mr. Francis
Buche-r, widely known in t'.iis viciuity, died at
his residence on Walnut St., aged about 71 years.
Mr. bucher was a native of this plane, his father
being one of the earliest settlers iu the town. He
lived to see many changes and to enjoy the
friendship of hosts of friends for many years.
During his sojourn in Ibis world he enjoyed the
pleasures which a happy disposition and a con
tented mind only can gie, and by "doing unto
! others as vou wish them to do uuto you." By
his integrity, honesty, industry and cheerfulness.
he won the esteem of all. He has departed with
out leaving a single enemy behind. He was a
truly exemplaiy citizen, and erfonned many
acts which were greatly beneficial to Simbury
and its citizens. In all matters pertaining to the
good or our town he took an active part, until
he was stricken down lv paralvsis, some six
years ago, when he became an invalid. During
liis siekues- lie made no complaint, but bore his
sufferings with christian fortitude. He became
a member or Lodge 203, of the I. O. of O. F.
about twenty eight years ago, and remained an
active member mail his death. His remains
were interred on Sunday last, and were followed
to their hist resting place by the two lodges or I.
O. of O. F. or this place, and a large coucnurse
of relatives aud friend.
I he trial of Dr. GidJiug for seduction was
concluded ou Saturday last. Judge Rockefeller
delivered the charge to lot jury in the morning.
In the afternoon the jury returned a verdict of
not guilty," but defendant to pay the costs.
In default or 18,000 bull for hi appearuuee on
next Monday for argument for a new trial in the
abortion case, the Doctor was placed iu custody
or tbe Sheriff until Monday morning last, when
the amount or bail required was furnished, and
the Doctor was released. The argument for a
new triul is fixed for Monday next.
