The ship atlantic, from Liverpool, England, for New York, having • run short of coal attempted to make Halifax, Novo Scotia, and in so_do, ing ran on the rocks and sank. She had on board about 1000 persons, of whom. 700 are thought to have been lost. Not a, woman or child was saved, and as the ship sank suddenly most were drowned in their berths, as it was night when the vessel struck.

There was no basket, and the aeronaut started holding by his left hand to a trapeze bar, suspended by two ropes from the balloon. While ris ing, ho .waved his handkerchief with his right hand.- At an altitude of several hundred feet, he Whirled 'round and 'round and-then-tooklis seat on the bar. When a thousand feet high, he placed his back on the bar, and extended his hands and feet. A few minutes later, he dropped. backward, head first, and caught himself by his toes ; thus hanging, head downward, he ascended higher, still waving his hand kerchief to the horror-stricken multitude below. liax.The wretched ruffian Nixon, who shot down a man in the streets of New York withotit provocation, has shown him self to be a miserable coward since his con viction. Presuming on the impunity which murderers have heretofore enjoyed in New York, and relying upon his able counsel, through whose dexterous dust throwing many a red-handed, villian has escaped the gallows, this rowdy maintained a bold and defiant front until the foreman of the jury before which he was tried pronounced the awful words, "Guilty of murder in the first degree." Then he gave way to fear and . dread, and trembled and wept as if he supposed himself to be standing on the fatal platform. Ms nervous prostration continues, and it is said that he will hard ly survive till the day fixed for his execu tion. ItairDr. R. T. Trail, in the Philadelphia Star, is a very cheerful prophet. He says that we are approaching the climax of a pestilential period. From 1880 to 1885 the planets of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune will approach the earth nearer than they have been for 1800 yrs. Whenever any one of the foul have come near enough for us to feel its influence, pestilence, famine and extremes of .heat and cold have been found the result- Now we are to have the influence of the four_ combined, and he predicts that in seven years from now all manner of evil which grows out of atmospheric changes will be upon uS. • To lessen the calamity the world is urged to use the strictest sanita ry measures, and by health and cleanli ness counteract the effects of our unwel come neighbors: The World is n3nch bet ter able to care for itself than it was two or three hundred years ago, that by care ws inainvert , much of the danger.

Mr. Frank lin Miller brought a two-horse; load of wood to town. He left the team on the street opposite the saddler shop of Wm.' P. Weagly, in care of a lad. The horses started and before they could be reached by any one were in full flight down street- Mr. Miller was at Minter's Hotel where he attempted to arrest them. by taking hold of the bridle of one of them. He was thrown to the ground narrowly escaping being run over by horses and wagon.— On - reaching -the-hill—nearly-opposi te-the shops of the Waynesboro' Manufacturing Company, the horses were arrested. Had not the hill intervened the destruction of the wagon would doubtless have been com plete. As it Was no damage was' done and. the scattered cord sticks were soon . replacel on the wagon. SPEUFG TRADE.—From the indications apparent on all aides, we will have a live ly spring trade, Our merchants and busi ness men generally, are engaged in bright ening up their establishments for • the o pening of trade, and it is to lie hoped that their expectations may be realized, as the past winter season has been to them any thing but a prosperous one. Money still continues to be in great demand, bat there is evidently more confidence felt at pres ent than has been for some time, and as a consequence a greater buoyance is ex pected. A good spring business, with good prices for the production of our farmers, would restore matters wonderfully in this section of country.

The communica'ion is such that in a few hours any article desired in the city can be de. livered here. But how much better would be the advantage and convenience with a depot at our town instead of the mountain, and yet such a result is attainable beyond all per-adventure. A stoat subscription of fifty or sixty thousand dollars would suffice. ifirThe report that times are hard, and money hard to get hold of, is an old song but we think we heard it o ft ener and with more solemn earnestness, this spring, than ever before.

We hear of them in every quarter ; they have haunted gchool houses and churches, and • are even said to now and then loaf about saloons. One of the veritable has lately appeared in Noble county, Minn. In the great storm of January 7th, a man by the name of Weston was frozen to death ; at least such was the snpposition, though the body was not.discovered. The other day a man;named Wesley, living near Hersey Station, was amazed to see -Weston ap proaching him from the barn, dressigas on the day of his disappearance. Suppos ing it was all .a mistake, Wesley spoke to him, telling him that everybody believed him to be dead. Upon this the figure, stalking about in Weston's clothes, de 'eared that such was the fact, and his body would be found in a oeitain -locality about one mile and a half east of the station.— The speaker then vanished - Wesley told the story to his neighbors and they set out for the spot indicated, when sure en ough they found the body of the unfortu nate man iu a large snowdrift. He had armyilue, with a cape, on an overcoat and the apparition was dressed in a simi lar way:- was evident that- the coat had not been taken off or the body moved, and the question that excites the scientific mind now is : Where' did that spiiritlei its army overcoat? The fact of the ap-, pearance of the ghost dressed in this man ner, is sufficiently attested to :satisfy the St. Paul .Frew of its reality, and it de clares that Mr. Wesley is a gentleman of the strictest veracity.

OVER 500 LIVES LOST I Hem - Fax, April I.—The steamship At- b la • o the 'Mite Star Line, from Liver pool, March 20, for New York, running short of coal, made for Halifax. When a bout twenty miles from port off Cape Prospect at 2/:31) this Morning, ran ashore ou Meagher's Head. She had on board over 1,000 men woman and children.— Only 250 succeeded in landing. The re mainder, including woman and children, were lost. The captain and third officer were saved ; the first officer was drown ed. The following are the particulars touch ing the ship and disaster as related by Mr. Brady, the thircfofficer : The Atlantic, Mr. Brady said, left Liverpool on Thursday, March 20, for New York ; touched at Queenstown the next day to receive the mail and passen gers, after which she started on her voy age across the ocean. She had a full car go of general merchandise and a very large number of passengers. Mr. Brady could not give the precise number, but thought there were over 800 in the steer age and about 6.fty in the cabin. These, with her crew would make the total num ber not less than 1,000 souls. She was commanded by Capt. James Agnew Wil liams. Rotigh weather was experienced; but nothing worthy of note occurred until noon on Monday, the 31st, when the coal being short, Capt. Williams resolved to put into Halifax for a supply. The cap tain and Mr. Brady had the night watch up to midnight, when they were relieved by the chief and fourth officers. At that time they judged thatSambro Light then bore N. IN. W. 39 miles, The sea was rough anti the night was dark. The chiefand fourth officer hay ing taken charge, Mr. Brady went below and turned into his birth. The ctptain at the same time went to his room to lie down. What occurred between mid-night and 2 o'clock—the time of the disaster— Mr. Brady cannot tell, as he wassleeping. He was awakened and thrown nut of his bunk by the shock when TSE STEAMER STRUCK, She struck heavily three or four times. Mr. Brady ran up to the deck and found it full of passengers. He found ,an axe and with it began to clear away the star board life boat. He observed that the captain and the other officers were engag ed in clearing the other boats, Mr. Bra dy succeeded in getting his life boat out. This was the only boat launched and it had no sooner touched the water than a crowd made a rush to get. into it. Brady had to use some force to prevent them from crowding in. He put" two women and about a dozen men into it, and also got in himself. Just then the steamer fell and sank. The boat with its living freight was carried down.with the steamer, and all in it were drowned except Brady. The hull of the steamer became almost totally submerged, and only the bow and the masts remained above water; The greater part of the passengeri were in their rooms below at the time, and imme diately drowned. Indeed, so soon after Striking did the steamer sink, that many of the passengers were no doubt sleeping peacefully in blissful ignorance of all that was going on around them, and pass ed into eternity without a struggle. Of those on deck numbering several hun dreds, many where washed overboard when the ship fell over and then CRIES FOR HELP as they struggled in vain for life, were • most heartrending. Many, however had taken retuge in the rigging and on the bow and where still living, but with the prospect of almost certain death before them, for they knew - not where they were, and were in a momentary expectation of ship sinking further and erigulphing them all. Even as they were clinging in des peration to the rigging with the sea wash ing over them continually, their situation was indeed most trying, and every few minutes some of them benumed by the cold and exhausted from their struggles loosed their hold and perished.
