ARESERVOIE BURSTS The TSUara of East Lee Sestrsyei "by a Sudden Mugo. Sad Loss of Life and Property. Sr-Ri-NGFIELP. Mass., April 20. A special to the Republican tya: Mud p-.nrt .divers about fifty acres in the Northeast part of Lee, nearly on the Becket line, and a mile North of Greenwater Tond, on the Otis Turn pike. It is about four miles from Lee Village, and fifteen years ago this little pond, then covering about twenty acres, was dammed to give additional power to the mills at Lee. It hurf two outlets, one toward Greenwater Pond, and at the West vnA . .nall brook running into ft rainwater Brook, which flows southwest. These two streams have their junction at East Lee, and thence flow to the Housatonic River, a mile below the village. The val lsy from the flat below East Lee is a narrow defile, say twenty rods wide, and a little more than a mile east the turnpike turns up Green water Brook, and another goes east to Lake May. Mud Pond is isolated and but m frpnnpntlv visited. The dam was ft hioli across the mouth of the valley. All the mill owners on the sireaui contributed to its cost, including Nathan Gibbs, Harrison Garfield, John Dowd, and others. Fur nearly two miles before Green water Brook reaches the Otis Turn pike the stream runs through fields and farms. There is little popula- tion along the line. The descent is very rapid and confined in a narrow vallev through Eaet Lee or Cape Street, as it is called. There are three houses from Sturgis' Bridge to East Lee and he dam those of Goosey, Gardner and Baker. About 5:30 o'clock this morning Gonsett heard the roaring and saw that the dam had broken, and he alarmed John Bakers lamily, and Da-ight Baker went flying down the stream to alarm the people, who were jut getting up. He in turn sent one Shultis farther down the stream. The progress of the flood was slow, presenting a wall ten feet high, as some say, destroying every thing in us way and gaining veloci ty all the time. DESTRUCTION OF THE WATERS. In thirty minutes all was over. The stream was full of logs, trees, 6tones and debris, as it struck the bridge twenty feet long over the stream n the Otis turnpike and the upjer end of East Lee. It carried away Edwin Sturgis' marble shop, involving a lot of $4,000. Next it attacked John Dowd's grinding shop, undermining it and filling it with earth. The flood then swept the houses of James Fletcher and Mrs. Isaac Gardner down stream, the family Iwrelv escaping with their lives." Next John Dowd's fac tory, 20 by -10 feet, was completely wrecked. The lors there will be $,V0. The waters advanced on A. N. White's carriage shop, a three-story building on the bank of the stream, 5(1 by 'M feet, with a wing three sto ries high. He lived on the third floor with his family, and alone boy of 15 is the only survivor, and he went through three mill dams, and was rescued from a tree by Deputy Sheriff Cutting. The boy says that the family were just getting up. He ssw what apeared to be a drove of eheep coming and the family all ran together into the kitchen. Mr. White advised the family to stay to gether. Soon the floor rose, the building parted in the middle, and that is the last the boy knew. Mr. White, his wife, his daughters, Alice Irene, aged '), and Ida May, aged 11, were killed. The bodies of the fam ily, except one daughter, were found soon after. Mrs. White was carried nearly half a mile away, her remains being found in the machine room of the Garfield Mill. The body of one daughter was found so bruised that it was impossible to identify it by name. The boy was but slightly bruised. AS AGED VICTIM. Next to the Whites lived Simon Dowd, aged 60. His house was turned arouud.but not carried away. He went to let out his hens, was. 6wept away and the body has not yet been recovered. Mrs. James White next had her house under mined and filled with debris, which i six feet deep in the basement. She fled to the garret and saw Mr. Dowd floating away, bidding hirr farewell. The flood then reached the store of P. Morin, just appointed postmaster. His building was brok- j en and tipped over into the stream, and he loses $25,000. Books and pccioflice records were sw pt away. Couch & Oakley, millwright., across the stream, had their building, 30 by 5(1, crushed like an eggshell, the boiler being carried away several rods into T. L. Foote's dam ; loss, f3.KK). In all the above factories thedams were also carried out. Fur ther down Theron Fate's grist mill wn partially undermined, the dam ot, grain carried away and damage done to the extent of $8,000. Several rods lelow Foote's is a row of tene ment houses in which lived four faiiiiiits. In the one nearest the brook lived Theodore King and his wife and child of two years. They nit-lied out when the flood came, hut were too late. Mrs. Charles King and Theodore King went down the stream together Until a log struck her and they were separated. Mrs. Charles King's lody was found near Verau'a mill. Theodore was rescued from an apple tree near the same place. Mrs. Theodore King was swept away later, as Mr. King says when he started his wife was on the bank. Charles and his child escap ed. The other families in the block were uninjured. THE TRACK OF THE FLOOD. At the junction of the Greenwater Brook with Goose Pond Brook, John McLoughlin's machine chop and sawmill is completely ruined, and part of the sawmill east was carried through the machine shop second story, dropping down there and the remainder gaiug down stream ; loss, J 10,000. Further d own where Goose Pond Stream runs swiftly through a narrow valley not more than fifteen rods wide, Harrison Garfield's grist mill was struck, and the machine and engine-roam demolished. The dam was rendered useless by the filling in of refuse. Loss. $30,000. Below was the fane paper mill of ; John eran. His dam is ruined ine water tirucc me east end and demolishing that filled the finishing and packing room with debris, and washed away a portion of the back part cf the milL The cellar is de stroyed and the loss will be $10,000. Next is the Decker fc Sabin mill, re built two years ago and not operated, but owned by Harrison Garfield. The dam was-washed out and the rear of the mill carried away and utterly wrecked in the lower stories. The brick stack was also demolished and the loss will be $10,000. Here' V -.n ;,1ana .Awarda Mr CmHT- WIC OilTJ " v'"" vt . field's residence, and for several iodi over the mgnways ua sujaceui. field the refuse of the flood lies scattered in all directions. Trees, machinery, wood, great boulders and castings are piled up in every direc tion. There is hardly a house from Cape Street to Water Street, through Eaet n nroner. that is not injured more ere less, and on the upper side of Cape Street houses everywhere nave from one to six feet of mud on the floors, the fences gone, lawns spoiled and furniture wrecked. On the streams six bridges are carried away, tha hifhwavs are eullied, and in some places are washed away to the aepiu 01 6evenu letru im men estimate the loss to the town at from 810 000 to 820.000. Harrison Garfield estimates his loss at ?50,- 000. The losses fall heavily on most of the sufferers, and many of those whose houses are gone or damaged are workingmen, and lose their all. Some idea of the damage can be fnrmpd when it is 6tated that for three miles the wreck is complete. The bodies of Mr. White, his wife and one child and of the two King women were takeu to the East Lee r.hanI. Thev were crushed and mangled in a horrible manner. EXTENT OF THE DISASTER. The funeral of the victims will be held in the East Lee chapel at 2:ft0 p. m., Thursday. 1 he theory tI the disaster is that the ground was so thorouuhlv soaked with water that nrobablv found its nay through the bottom, and, no one visiting the place, this was unnoticed until Oon- sett was alarmed oy tne roar oi uie water. This disaster is the mill river flood over acain on a smaller scale. There are seven lives lost, five bodies being recovered and two to be accounted for, and the damage is roughly estimated at $150,000 to S200.OU0. The ravaces ot the Hood are chief! v confined to a mile along the stream from Sturgis' Mill, at the upper end of East Lee illage, to the lieach house wunin uau a nine of the Lee ptistoflice. It is the same old story a valley so narrow that a . . i 1 i . stone can be tossed across it crowd ed with mills and dwellings. A mountain reservoir hid away so com pletely that very many people never heard of it before, the security of which no one st-enis to have had any adequate information about. Now F or a Gover.ior. It should be a subject for congrat ulation amont; Republicans that their State convention which is soon to meet, will place in nomination by acclamatiou theircandidatefor Gov ernor. The more thoroughly the question is discussed, the more hearty and unanimous does the sen timent of the people appear to be in favor of the reuomination of the bat tle scarred veteran Gen'l Bearer. This sentiment comes emphatically from the people, without the inter vention of leaders or bosses. If there is any bin-s, operating, he is certainly one who knows what the people want, and acts in harmony with them. It was euggeited by some timid Republicans at first, that it would be belter for the interests ot the party to take an entirely new man, but this idea was not seconded by any large element of the party. Only about one-tenth of the Repub lican party-was arrayed against Gen eral Beaver at the last election, and it was asking a good deal for the nine-tenths of the party to give up their prt-fereuce to please the one tenth. The minority might well ask the question whether lurther di vision miht not be promoted rath er than harmony, by such an im proper course. The great bulk of the party believe that General Bea ver was roughly and unfairly treat ed when a candidate four years ago, and they will never be satisfied un til that wrong is righted. They w ant to see him Governor of Penn sylvania as he should be, aid are determined that their wishes shall be gratified. We do not see anything to change in our views from what they were when we begged the Independent republicans not to strike down a brave soldier and a good Republic an and thus throw the State into the hands of the Democrats. We still think their course was entirely un warranted, as most of them now do themselves, but are willing to over look the past and rank it with one of those foolish freaks which will some times overtake parties and always do mischief. They now appear anxious to support Gen Beaver, make all the reparation in their power, and for this let them have full credit. General Beaver is already virtual ly on the track, and let us give for him "a long pull, a strong pull and a pull altogether" and elect him by a majority which will in part make up for previous mistakes.

A writer in Hall's Journal Iltdth gives th following hints prevent wakefulness, which are "f 10 no doubt efficacious : If you cannot go to sleep when you first go to bed, give orders to be waked up at daylight, get up promptly, do not sleep a wink dur ing the day, go to bed at your regu lar time, with directions to be waked as before ; in a week you wll find that you go toshep promptly, but be careful to get up as h as yo:i wake in th morning, thus you will find out how much sleep your sys tem requires, and net accordingly. Always avoid sleepit g in the day time, fori.' you require seeven hours sleep, and spend that much at night, whatever time you spend in 6leep during the day mud be de ducted from the seven hour?, or you will soon be wakeful again. If you wake up in the night, either go ta bed two or three hours later or when you wake up -l up, -ven if it be one o'clock in the morning, and do not sleep a moment until your reg ular time for going to bed ; if you wake, and do not sleep in the day time, you will find out in less than a week tow much sleep you require, then act accordingly. Nature loves regularity, and four hours sleep from 10 to 2 is said to be worth six hours after 12 o'clock. A single fact is worth a shiD load of argument This mav well be applied t0 gL Jacobs Oil, which is more efficacious than all ther lim ments. Mr. John Gregg, a well known citizen of WaUouville, Cal., found it to be indispensable as a cure for rheumatism. Price 50 cts. A man may be in heaven long be fore he goes there, and may be per fectly sure that there is a hell here, even when he is doubtful about the one hereafter. Every day should bl distinguish ed by at least one particular act of love THE CAPTADT8 WAGER. During the evening of the day on which the battle of Baiaklava was fought, the 25th of October, 1854, a dozen of us were seated around a fire lighted before the tent occupied by the first lieutenant and myself. The night was chilly and damp, and we were somewhat sad and gloomy, as we had lost some good triads during the fight A silence had succeeded a sad story related by a ehasseur, when suddenly we were startled by the big voice of Captain Dumon, of the Tenth Dragoons, saying: I wonder if I will see again in this world this poor Boscal, cut in two by a cannon-ball this very after noon. ' "1 hope you will not," replied lieutenant of hussars. M Why do you hope that ?" asked the captain. " Because he would frighten the life out of you if one of these nights he came to visit you," replied the lieutenant ' Hussar, I do not permit yeu to insinuate that anything supernatur al or natural may frighten me, Capt Charles Dumon, of the th Dra goons," exclaimed angrily the brave soldier. " Pshaw I sweetly dragoon, sweet ly ! I have seen men just as coura geous as you are, and believe your self to be, going into trances through fright," replied the lieuteuant, with great calmness. " You did not see that and I defy yout to prove it," cried the captain, now lurious. " I did see that ; and I am ready to bet you a good dinner, at 50 franks per capita, that within two months I, or somebody else, will cause you such a fright as will be remembered by you till your last hour. Do you accept the wager?" - Most certxinly I do, on the con dition that all of us here now, or what will be left of us after the tak ing of Sebastapool, shall feast at the expense of the loser, cost what it may- : " All right dragoon." " All right" hussar." As the " taps " sounded we sepa rated, bidding good-bye to each other. The battle of Tukerman was fought on the 5th day of November, 1S54, eleven days after the battle of Baiaklava. I he n;ght lollowing was exceedingly cold. It was about 11 o'clock p. m., and everyone was asleep in our camp but the sentries and grand guard. Alone in his tent, Capt Dumond snored, buried to the nose in a layer ot tresn straw, discovered God knows where, by bis faithful but not over-scrupulous or derly. Near bv him was his big sa bre, and under hia pillow, made of hi horse's saddle, a pair of pistols showed their brass work, shining like gold. Suddenly a human form, wrapped in a white mantel, and wearing on the head the regulation helmet of the dragoons, under which appeared a face deadly pale, entered the tent. The apparition seemed to slide rather than walk. It approached the captain and call ed him bv his name. The captain awoke, sat up, rubbed his eyes with his fist, and said ; Who is there? What do you want?" " Has the grave changed me so much that Charles Dumon, my bo som friend cannot recognize in me Prosper Boscal, killed eleven days ago at Baiaklava ?" is that you c ironically replied the captain. " ell, I thought the Russians to be better killers. ith us French those that we demolish never come back to visit their for mer acquaintances. Meanwhile. Prosper Boscal, my departed friend, you will greatly faor me by retiring to whence you came trora. lou must excuse me, my dear, you be ing dead, have time to sleep, and I, being alive, have not. Then, good bye; my respects to all in sbeol, please, and please take care not to get cold, by playing truant, during such a Siberian night. "Dumon," exclaimed sadly the ghost, "you know how much I did love you while cn this earth. In order "to see you once more, to feid you an eternal adieu, to give you a last shake of the hand, I have left the spirit world. Instead of the friendly reception that I had a right to expect from you, I get only sar casm and derision. Take care; Du mon ! One never goes unpunished that insult the dead." '"Go to Hades! Let me sleep. If in two minutes you have not van ished I will finish that Russian job, and I will do it properly, you can bet. Get out, and mighty quick, too, or else I will accelerate your depart-! ure with the point of my sabre." u I will remain with you ten min utes more. Your means are foolish, yur sabre is a play-ty, and you are powerless, Dumon." "I am foolish and powerless, and my sabre is a play-toy ! Do you want to get acquainted with it ? Leave this tent immediately, you night prow ltrr. Will you go? " No, n-t before ten minutes." " Then, take that," and the cap tain, drawing his sabre, made a thrust at the ghost, who, stretching furth his hand, seizd the blade, which remained in it, separated from the hilt, held by the captain. " You see, Dumon, there is your blade," and the apparition threw it on th mantle spread over the straw. ' see nothing. Horns of the devil,'' jelled the captain, and grabbing his pistols, he fired both shots at the ghost As I have returned the blade of your abre to you, now I return the "hullets from your pistol." said the ghost, throwing tvo pistol bullets on the m intle. Perspiration could be distinctly seen on the captain's brow, and as he panted for breath he muttered: " This is strange, very strange ; per haps it is the truth, the dead may leave their graves. How pale he IS I" The ten minutues have elapsed, Dumon. I must leave you forever. I forgive you, and there is my hand, A last ehko, and I am gone." Captain Dumon took the band of fered in his own. It was icy and stiff the very hand oi a dead man and, as be shook it the whole arm, following the impulsion given, fell heavily on the straw. Captain Dumon, of the th Dra goons, one of the bravest officers of the French army, uttered a terrible cry, and fell back senseless. " You have lost ! You have lost !" cried we, entering his tent He was speechless and uncon scious. We rubbed his face with snow, and one of the men ran for a surgeon. Itwasalonz time before he re vived, and we were all of us making piteous faces. For my part, I was ashamed of myself. When he recovered he admitted frankly that be had been thorough ly frightened, and two days after the taking of Sebastapol we leasted at his expense, bnt nve or us were missing. They slept their last sleep, far away trom tne country lor wnicn they had given their lives. May God grant them eternal repose. Amen f A little explanation is necessary. It was not his sabre that Captain Dumon tried to use against his vis itor, but a broken one picked up on the battle field, the bullets bad been taken out from the pistols, and the arm that fell on the straw had been given me by our surgeon major. A Mole Under Fire. The following incident is taken from the "Recollections of a Pri vate" in the Boston Commercial- I must not forget to chronicle a laughable incident that occurred on Morris Island, S. C. It was in the early days of the siege, home am- munition was wanted in a battery at the front and a mule driver, vol- . , . , ti, 1 nnteered to deliver it 1 he only road lav along the Sandy beach for " 6 ., j v ir , of the route being within the range of Forts Sumter and Wagner. The mule team started up the beacb. Sumter began shelling furiously. The driver laid on the lashes, the mule, with ears laid back, plied his legs a hundred revolutions to the minute. A shell would strike the beach and explode ; then another would whizz by the team ; then that mule would stop and reflect a mo ment or try to turn back, when down would cume the whip. A fresh start for a short distance and then a halt, as another shell explod ed. Then the driver jumped from his seat caught the animal by the head, and went on a dozen rods further. Wagner now opened on him. But still the team gradually moved on, reaching the battery finally un hurt The ammunition was quickly delivered and that mule wns headed for camp, and started at its utmost speed. Down the sandy road flew the animal, the driver rapidly , ply ing the whip, till at last they reach ed the shelter of the sand-hills. Just then a shell from Sumter came I shrieking through the air. Striking the beacb in the rear of the team, it bounded upwards and exploded ap parently right above the mule. A cloud of smoke hid the team for a moment, but when it cleared away there stood the old mule, with head down and ears back, kicking most viciously at the cart, that had been smtshed and broken up by a frag ment of the shell. The driver lay on tha sand, but jumped up ; he limped towards the mule, cut bim loose from the car, mounb.-d, and galloped away to the camps. Thousands of men. Union and Confederate, watched this perform ance. Our men on shore, and the sailors on the vessel all joined iu hearty cheers and waving of caps. The rebels joined in the demonstra tion to the pluck of the driver, and the comical courage of his long-eared charge. The Mind and Ihe lifga. Men generally cross their legs when there is the least pressure on their minds. You will never find a man actually engaged in business with his legs crossed. The limbs at those times are straig'iter than at any other, because the mind and body work together. .A man engag ed in auditing accounts will never cross his legs ; neither will a man who is writing an article, or who is employed in any manner where his brain is actively engaged ; when at work in a sitting posture the limbs naturally extend to the floor in a perfectly straight line. A man may cross his legs if he is sitting in an of fice chair discussing some business proposition with another man, but ihe instant he becomes really in earnest, and perceives something to be gained, his limbs uncross quick as a flash, he bends forward toward his neighbor, and begins to use his hands. That is a phase that I be lieve you will always observe. Men often cross their legs at pub lic meetings because they g there to listen, or to be entertained ; they are not the factors in the perform ance, and they naturally place them selves in the most comfortable posi tion known to them, namely, that of leaning well back in their chairs and crossing their legs. A man al ways crosses his leg when he rsads a newspaper, but is more apt to lie down when he reads a book. He reads the paper, of course, to inform himself, but at the same time the perusal of its contents i recreation for him. and his body again seeks its position of relaxation. When a man is reading a pens paper aud waiting for his breakfast, his legs are always crossed, but so soon" as the breakfast is brought to him he puts the paper aside, straightens out his legs, and goes to work ; that is, begins to eat, his mind now turning on the duties of the day before him. Men cross their legs in a ballroom, but it is far from an elegant thing to do, and is not done by thoe who have been brought up in good society. It is your " three-penny bit young man " who crosses his legs at a ball, and, would you believe it, I have seen young ladies do the same thing I " Pa, I'm not going to learn any more geography lessens. " "Why ? Have you been excused from geog raphy lesions?" "No, but" "I presume your teacher has got tired of such a stupid pupil." "Teacher nothin'. I'm the feller that's got tired. I read in a paper that the geography over half the globe would be changed by future explorations, and I am going to wait, I want to get it straight before I put in so much hard work. 0UGn(ME Frre front Opiate; Emetic hm( Boiton.

It is by the con flict and collision of political parties that the latent and richest powers of the State are made manifest; and! those whom I represent have no sympathy with the dogma that it reflects glory upon a statesman to affect independence of his party, or that ii ia an indication of virtue in a citizia to belong to no political or ganization. Political parties are social groups in the naliuii, allied by common purposes at:J kindred aspirations for the accomplishment of beneficial result?. When parties perish this government will expire, for we all unden-tand that in thii country the only government is the party in power. Here is no dyuasty, no rul- I nig lainuy, imwnni; corresponding to tne lunctions oi government un der other systems except the p.irty that is lor the tune bring intrusted by the votf s of a majority of the people with the execution of their will. And, Mr, when a majority of the people declare that there f hall be a chaise of administration, it is necessarily implied that there thall be a change of those agencies through which nlene political ad ministration can be made effectual. It is useless to juggle and palter about thif mutter. -Senaor Inralls.
