' THE ATLANTIC STEA.M.SfIp: DISASTER.
—The daily papers bav,e be e n laden with
thrilling accounts and incidents of the
wreck of the steamship Atlantic, on the
Ist inst ., while attempting to make her
- way into Halifax harbor. A newspaper
correspondent who went down to the wreck
of the Atlantic on '7tivinst., in a diver's
costume, says the hull lies well down on
the port side, and is broken in 'several
places from contact with the reef. Fish
were swimming around, eagerly devouring
particles of food found fleeting about.—
He found the forward hatch open, and saw
that the cargo there had broken bulk and
confused heaps, with bodies of men
and women jammed among the cases and
—crates-bruit' • •
Fish were swimming in and - out feast
ing upon the dead bodies. Limbs are
strewn around, having been broken from
the bodies by the combined action of the
waters, which, When agitated, drive a
gainst ugly pieces of the broken hull that
here project.
The correspondent then went to the com
panion way of the steerage cabins, and•
found :khundied or more bodies lying in
an immense heap, looking as if alive, with
arms dislocated, eyes staring wildly, faces
grinning, and moving backward and for
ward with the under current. Some were
dressed, but many were half nude.
Children were clinging to mothersl stout
men were clasping their wives, seeming to
have met death with a calm resignation.
The scene was horrible beyond descrip
tion.
The correspondent then went to the com
panion way of the steerage, where the men
passengers were by themselves. Bodies of
styong men, old and young, were hustled
together on the stairway, with distended
nostrils, gaping mouths, staring glassy
eyes, giving some Conception of the terror
which seized them as they vainly strug
gled' to gain the deck.
From another part of the vessel a view
— was — obtained - of - the sleepingapartmenr, -
where piled up in heaps on the port side,
'were numbers of bodies of men, with bed
clothing strewn among them. From a•
brasion with broken stanchions and jagg
ed, splintered wood-work, the flesh had
been torn from the faces of many, while
others are bruised and battered about their
heads, which are red and bloody, contrast
ing horribly with the pale, livid features
of the others.
• WYBrigham Young telegraphs that
his resignation of secular offices does not
effect his position as President of the Mor
mon Church, in which capacity he shall
still exercise control, leaving to younger
mien the details of business: He says the
Mercantile Institution last year paid a
dividend of ten per sent., that their bank
mind, and that the Utah Central Rail
road earned $210,000 net last year. He
says they intend establishing settlements
.in Arizona, in the Apache country, and
(wen up that country to white settlers, the
Mormon *cities, towns and villages already
extending four hundred miles in that di
rection. He denies that he has any mon
ey in the Bank of England, all his means
ba• . 4 invested in Utah. He says the time
ennw when the world will better un- -
derstand his mission than it does now.
,The city of San Salvador, the Cap
itol of the Central American Republic of

Eight hundred persons perished, and prop
city valued at twelve million dollars was
destroyed. The earthquake was followed
by a conflagration, and many buildings
Isere burned.

DowN.—During the high wind which
prevailed on Sunday morning last the"
large sign over the door of Messrs. Am

a crash. It was a fortunate circumstance
that it fell when no one was in front of

THE HOLY BIBLE-Itotit to itiacler.staiid
it.—lt has been our privilege to examine
Dr. Hilehcock's new and complete analy
sis of the Bible and'we wish to call the at
teniion of our readers to it. It is a clas
sification of the verses of the Bible by
subject, which enables one to compare
scripture with scripture and interpret the
dark passages by those that are obvious.
Whatever -facilitates the study of God's
word in this way, illustrating one portion
of it by another, must be regarded as an
important help in arriving at a knowledge
of thi truth ; as each subject spoken of in
the scriptures is arranged under its ap
propriate head, it presents to the eye and
mind of the reader the great truths of the
Bible in strictly logical order, so that a
child can refer to any passage or subject
with astonishing rapidity and there tell
a parent or teacher all relating to it ;
- 'f - the - resulerwishes - to - krow - all - tlfe
Bible says on the subjects, namely : Re
pentance, Faith, Justification, Baptism,
the death of the Body, the last Judge
ment, or any other subject in the Bible,
he can turn to them at once and there
find what might require weeks to ascer
tain with the common Bible.
This. work also contains Cruden's in
valuable Concordance,a Pronouncing and
Interpreting Dictionary, a Dictionary of
Religious Denominations in the world,and
a histery, of the Bible. In short it is the
best Biblical 'work ever printed in the
English language. With it one can not
be ignorant of holy writ. This work may
be properly denominated a commentary
. wholly Biblical.
The authorized agent for the work is
now in Waynesboro' and will soon call
upon our citizens and give them an op
portunity to examine the work and we
think when once examined you will say
as did we—"bring us a copy"." The fol
lowing testimonials from. our clergymen
speak for themselves :
I cheerfully recommend Hitchcock's
new and complete analysis of the Holy
Bible as a work of great merit and inval
uable aid to the study and understanding
of the word of God. C. L. SEEDY.
17. Waynesboro', April 9, 1873.
I heartily concur with the above recom
mendation of Hitchcock's analysis of the
Bible, and no one securing a copy will
ever have cause to regret it.
H. H. W. HIBSRMAN,
Pastor. Trinity Reformed Church,
April 10th, 1873. Waynesboo, Pa.
The analysis of the Bible by Dr. Hitch
cock id regarded as the best of the kind
ever published. I have had it for sever
al years, and consider it a valuable help
to the study of the scriptures:
J. DONAHUE,
Pastor of the M. E. Church,
Waynesboro', Pa.
I believe Dr. Hitchcock's analysis of
the Bible to be a book of great value to
every student of the Bible, and also one
calculated to excite increase of interest in
the holy volume, because of the,classifi
cation of its contents, rendering reference
to any desired subject convenient. The
concordance, tables, eic. attached add
greatly to the value of the book, which is
one I can freely commend to the attention
of the public. ROB'T. F. McCLEAw,
Pastor Presbyterian Church,
April 14th, 1873. Waynesboro', Pa.
A WORD MORE.—We said a word or
two in favor of manufacturers. To prop
erty holders we would endeavor to direct
their attention to the subject. And we
believe the strongest kind of argument will
be found in the-subjoined extract from the
Richmond (Ind.) Times : [Richmond is
one of the great manufacturing towns of
the West.]
As one of the evidences of the coming
impetus to the prosperity of Richmond.,
we will state that there are no houses to
rent in the city, and wherever a Move is
contemplated there isa cloud of applicants
for the vacated house. One real estate a
gent informs us that he has on file sixteen
applicants, and not one vacant house in
prospect. Builders and those having a
little spare capitol would do well to bear
this condition of things in mind as a sure
and profitable investment,. Many desirous
of locating here are obliged to go away
disappointed, from the impossibility of
getting a house to. move into. There are
many instances of persons residing at oth
er points who have standing applications
for 'houses, who will locate here as soon as
residences can be procured. Hurry up
more houses, and let the tide of migration
flow in.
HARRISBURG AND POTOMAC RAlL
ROAD.—Referring to the Harrisburg and
Potomac railroad the Newville Star says :
Nearly all the farms along the line hate
advanced in price and some enormously
so. Some of these have been raised in
value on account of the convenience of ore
banks, others strictly 'on an agricultural
basis. Some of the farms have gime up
300 per cent.; others 150 per cent. One
of these farms, which a few years since
was bought for $2,900, sold the other day
for 9,000, and we are told by one who is
thoroughly conversant with the price of
land along the line that nearly all that
were held at $75 now brings $l5O per acre.
This is very gratifying to the many farm
em along the line who subscribed amounts
which they could barely meet even in
prosperous times, and are not the least dis
couraged by the financial stringency which
will ruin some and frighten many who
have money in nonpaying investments.—
It is computed that this rise in lands will
pay the entire amount subscribed along
the line.

PRIISBYTERIAN S. S. AITIVEI3SAR.7i.— 1
The Sunday School connected with the
Presbyterian church of this place corn
,pleted the ninth year of its existence as a
separate school lait we k, and the occa
sion was marked by a celebration on Sab-
I bath evening lastin the church, which was
completely crowded by"an attentive con- i
gregation. The exercises began by sing
ing "Happy Greeting to All" and pray
er and reading of appropriate passages
of Scripture by the Superi,ntendent of the
School, W. S: Amberson, Esq. A hymn
entitled, "Jesus is my King" was then
sung. Following this was a brief history
of the School prepared and read by the
Superintendentwho has so well filled that
position from the organization of the
School. It was stated that the first ses
sion was held on the 10th of April, 1864,
in—the—Old—l.Tnion—ClurrchTthere—being
present 3 officers, 10 teachers and 27 schol
ars. At the close of the first year, the num
ber on the roll had increased to ps. The
hindrances resulting from a joint occupa
tion of the old church building were re
hearsed. These were over-ruled forlgood,
contributing largely to the movement
which resulted in the erection of a sepa
rate church edifice. On the 6th of Sep
tember, 1868, the school met for the first
time in the new Presbyterian church, and
thenceforward increased in numbers and
interest. The present roll was reported
as having the names of 4 officers, 8 male
and 6 female teachers and 46 male and 69
female scholars, 133 in all, the average
attendance for last six months, during
which a careful record has been kept, be
ing 80. The officers, all the teachers and
many of the scholars have been very reg
ular in their attendance. In the winter
of 1869, 14 of the scholars were made the
subjects of grace during a precious reviv
al and were added to the church. Since
that, other scholars have from time to time
professed Christ. Neatly all the baptiz
ed youth of the church are connected with
the school, and quite a good proportion of
the congregation, in addition to others.—
Two years ago, a liberal friend presented
Bibles and Testaments to the teaehers and
scholars, as New Year gifts, to the num
ber of 92. The prize or reward system
was tried for a short time, but proved a
fait td now there 5 """ 'Wds rr
allure, and now there are no methods em•
ployed to awaken and sustain interest in
the school•or its exercises but those which
appeal to a higher motive. A library of
832 volumes has been gathered. In clos
ing the report, recognition was made of'
God's good hand in guiding and prosper
ing the school through all its vicissitudes.
A very beautiful piece was then sung by
eleven little girls, who standing in a line,
with song, each raised to view a letter of
the Savour's command 'Teed my Lambs,"
closing with a chant. Next was read the
report of the Treasurer Joseph Price, ; "Esq.
The collection for the first year amounted
ed to $6,54. From year to year, as a rule
they have been increasing, and for the
last ;year were $117,51, and for the last
month $14,06, the whole amount for
the nine years being $701,55. Monthly
collections for Foreign Miisions are now
taken up. Over fifty dollars were contri_
buted for the 'sufferers by thefires in the
Northwest, and fifty dollars to the support
of a ward at the National Homestead for
Soldiers', Orphans at Gettysburg. Fol
lowing this report was the recitation of
selections from that portion of the Shorter
Catechism showing what the Scriptures
teach concerning God. The hymn begin
ing
'Who is He in yonder stall,
At -whose feet the:shepherds fall?"
was then sung. The,Rev. Mr. Richard
son, of Greencastle, next addressed the
children briefly. The concealed • pitfalls
and snares for thel g young in the world„
were earnestly set forth together with the
gracious deliverance from them offered by
the Good Shepherd. "Let the Master In"
was sung by the School, after which the
Pastor of the church, Rev. R. P. McClean
made a few remarks, drawing cheer from
the school's past history and urging to re
newed diligence and faithfulness in the
future. A collectionl;was taken up, after
which the school sang, "Whiter than
Snow" and prayer was again offered.
A tastefully arranged grOuptof well ex
ecuted photographs of the officers, teach
ers and pastor, in a large arid handsome
oval frame was presented on behalf of the
members and friends of the school to the
faithful Superintendent, devoted friend
and generous benefactor of the school, W.
S. Amberson, Esq., as a testimonial of
their appreciation of his character and
services. The picture was the work of
Mr. L. C. Brackbill, and reflects much
credit on our town artist. The exercises
were closed by the singing of the grand
"Coronation" hymn by the entire congre
gation, and the benediction. The music
throughout the services was under the lea
dership of Mrs. Josephine A. Funk, at the
organ, and .the Sunday School choir,which
has so well served the school, the mem
bers of which had so cheerfully taken
much time and trouble in the preparation
of thin part of the exercises, which added
so much to the interest of the occasion.
sm.A man and his wife, in Elmira, had
a talking match the other day for the
championship. At the expiration •of the
eighth hour the husband fell on the floor
completely exhausted. The wife stooped,
long enough in her garrulous career to
bend over the fallen man and remark :
"Poor fellow 1 he appears to have b9en
overcome or something before I have got
fairly started." She woo the belt.

LAVA. BED CAMP, April 11, via. TIRE- -
KA, April 12.—Yesterday afternoon five
Indians and four squaws came into our
camp and were made'presents of clothing
and provisions by the Peace Commission
em, and a message was' sent out by the
Commissioners, asking for a . talk this
morning at a point about a mile from our
picket line. Later in the evening Bogus
Charlie came in and told the picket that
he could take his gun, that he, Charlie,
did not intend to go back any more. The
-picket-brought-him-in an d
the tent of General Canby, where Char
lie left his gun and remained at the tent
of Frank Riddle during the night. This
morning Boston Charlie came in And told
the Commission - that Captain Jack and
five other Indians would meet the Com
mission outside our lines. Boston Char
lie and Bogus Charlie then mounted hors
es and started for the Lava Bed.
About an hour after their departure
General Canby, Dr. Thomas, Mr. A. B.
Meacham, and Mr. Dyer with Frank Rid
dle and his squaw for interpreter, started
for the place appointed. The party ar
rived at the appointed place, and were
closely watched by the signal officer Lieu
tenant Adams, from the signal station on
the bill overlooking our camp. About
half and hour after the party had arrived
a cry from the signal station was heard,
saying that the Indians had attacked the
Peace Commissioners, and that an engag
ment had taken place between the In
dians and Colonel Mason. In a moment
the troops were under arms and deployed
as skirmishers, under command of Col.
Green, and orders were given to forward
double. nick.
Very shortly after Mr, Dyer returned
and told us that the Indians had 'attack
ed their and that he thought he was the
only one who had escaped. But in a few
moments after Riddle and his squaw were
seen within the picket line. From. him.
we gather the following account of bow
the massacre commenced : Mr. Meacham
made a short speech to the Indians, fol
lowed by General Canby, and then Dr.
Thomas. Then Captain Jack made' a
speech asking for Hot Creek and Cotton
wood, places now occupied by Fairchild
and Dorris for reservations. Mr. Mea
cham told captain Jack that it was• im
possible to give him what he asked. Sehon
chin told Meacham to say' no more, that
he (Meacham) had said enough on that
subject, and while Schonchin was speak
ing Captain Jack got up and walked be
hind the others, turned back' and exclaims
ed, "all ready." He then drew his pistol
and snaped the cap at General Canby.—
He then cocked his pistol' again and fired ;
and General Canby fell dead, shot under
the eye. Schonchin then skit Me,acham
in the shoulder and head, but he is still
alive. Boston Charlie another Indian
shot and killed Dr. Thomas.
