drew forth the 'applause of the meeting.
The Rtmains of the Erie.
For 13. years has the engine of this fire
consumed steamer (which has just been rais
ed) laid at the bottom of Lake Erie. Portions
of the machinery are almost unaffected by
the water. The starting-bar, (or instance,
-Was good as new ; the lower part of it looks
fresh. The walking-beam is but little touch
ed by rust; in places the water has not ac
ted on it at all. -Portions of the condenser
are also quite fresh. It will sound strange
for us to say that after a thirteen years soak
some of the nuts of the machinery turn free-
Iy, the grcose having been preserved in the
threads of the screws. The water has ac
ted with unequal effect on different kinds of
'iron. A pair of tongs, for example, and.,a
g-tce,lord, look only as if exposed tea. mild
autumn's usage. A stub-and-t Wist double
barrel, of German make, is 'honey-combed
and full of hnlei. Another double -barrel
vgurf, seemingly English, is not nearly
so Much injured. Cast iron has stood the
bath better than wrought, of course. Some
of the heavy castings could be used again
II to-day. Had they laid in - salt water thus
long, instead of fresh. they would have been
totally destroyed. Most all of the engine
work, and most of the tools and utensils be
longing to the crowd of immigrants upon
the ill-starred steamer, show the action of
fire upon them. The frame of the walking
beam still has the blue scales and bluish tinge
given to wrought iron by intense heat—by
"burning," so called. • •
A curious effect of the heat is exhibited
by three watches reoffered from the wreck.'
They all stopped about the same time, at
10 o'clock, 40 minutes. The crystals mel
ted down and united with the dials, the ca
ses soldered themselves togetherat the joints.
Yt t the pressure of the water upon them at
the depth of sixty-nine feet was so great
they filled with fluid, and now hold it tight
within them. A deposit has taken place
which seems to have closed the fine passa
ges' through which the water entered.
Axes, hues, spades. forks, rakes. cowbells.
flatirons, knives and forks, scissors, and ev
ery conceivable iron article in use in a Ger
man or Norwegian household,catne out of the
wreck in profusion. Fire and water have
them all. The tone of a cowbell now in
our office is. however, quite good, the clear
ness of its ring, though, being soinsphat
abated by its thirteen years drewn,g.—
The cheif injury, after all, done to the iron
work and to the iron portion of the cargo Of
the steamer was by fire, and not by water.
Masses of stove plater are soldered together
by intense beat, and bundles of wire, and
sheet iron are welded together.
,Much gold and silver coin, as we have re
cently stated, was found upon the floor of
the steamer, and between her timbers on
each side of the ke•lson. She was badly
broken forward when raised, and some thir
ty feet front the' bows aft was taken ashore
at Point Abine and searched. The first
parcel of five•-franc pieces was there found
and so close by the fracture as to induce the
belief that more or less of the Coif) must have
fallen out into deep water and been lost.—
This• part of the wreck was afterwards tow
ed out into the lake and dropped. • The
portion now out near the marine railway as
tonishes everybody with the spectacle of a
great steamship actuality burnt down in the
water to within a lota of the kelson in two
ur three p! ices. She is almiost as thorough
ly burntdown as she would have been it she
bad been on dry land instead of in a rolling
sea Even at the depth of sixty-nine feet
there has been such an lotion in this tide
less body of water, (Lake Erie.) that the
wreck is covered with blue clay in places
over a foot thick. As she lies, the indus
try of the wreckers takes the California
shape. Hoes worked between the timbers
(etch up a mingled mass of cinders, broken
Crockery, clay, scraps of iron, sand, and
rubbish of alt• sorts. It is lifteil into a long
many-chumbered gold-washe r,and thorough
ly washed with water thrown from a forcing
pump. Silver, gold, lead, copper and iron
shot fall to the bottom, and are carefully gath
ered.
flow horrible was dim calamity, how in
explicable ! It our memory serves us cor
rectly, some three hundred and forty hu
man beings perished fearfully, in the deep
water. How stirred the sympathies of Alm
city ! How wild the excitement here, and
how for weeks we sickened and shuddered
over the ghastly companies of swollen, burnt
and disfigured corpses that were laid in
ranks upon our wharves and upon the beach!
May a like disaster never again happen
upon this beautiful water.—Brirdo Dem
ocrat.
Copper Discos cries in Western Tirginia
Amongst the many results of the inter
nal communication opening in the South
el, which
promises to tm of more value to our city than
the vast beds of Copper ore, which it has
developed, and which will be made acces
sible to our own manufacturing and smelt
ing interests. An exceedingly interesting
letter from Mr. Cook, of Floyd county Vir
ginia, published in the nchburg Repub
lican, gives a minute description of the char
acter and extent of these ores, from which
we make the following extracts.
We !hay add that the discovery of these
mineral rictus had been preceded by that
of sithilar deposits in Tentiesee, which were
traced into Tennesee. The direct value of
these mineral products cannot be estimated.
Those who think that the pre4iccupation of
Kansas will drive the Southern States into
abolition for the want of area and employ
meat for their labor, are ignorant of the new
dispensation of Schools and Railroads. We
publish the description of the Copper de
posits of Virginia :
The whole distance through which the
Copper ore hes been traced and shown to
exist, with more or less certainty, and dis
tinctness is some forty miles. Its' general
course corresponds with. that of the Blue
ridge. It seems to follow the sinuosities of
the mountains, being upon an average about
fourteen miles distant. On this line, copper
ore in considerable quantities s and . of good
quality has been discovered. At Carters it
is very abundant and of fine quality ; and the
owndrs of that property are now putting up
buildings and making other arrangements
lor raising and removing the mineral. Ex
atninations have also been mule and vari
ous explorations are in progress at• other
points on this line 7 -mote or less promising
in their• character. This much Itas been
demonstrated,That there is copper along the
whole line. Enough has' been dono to sat-
isfy ever; one that various points, as yet un
examined, or only partly opened, contain as
much and as good ore as any of those which
are devolved. Appearances and surface
indications were no hewer an the lands, (d
-andy successfully examined, then on vari
ous tracts still awaiting exploration. In foci
the veins already opened are .acattered at
such distance from each other along the line
and thesamene&" of appearence of the whole
land is so striking, that the extent of the
deposites may be calculated on, almost with
certainty.
That a large quantity of copper is to be
found in this country is now a matter ad
mitting of no doubt. There may be a ques
tion as to whether the mines are of .a char
acter to be profitably worked. Some of the
undertakers think that this problem,ino, is
solved, and at any rate they are going to
work: But it only one mine in ten prove
profitable, then this is one of the richest
mining countries on the globe. Not only
is the quantity of the article, together with
its quality, to be taken into consideration,
but we are to estimate the unusual facilities
for obtaining the ore. In no instance so far
as I have learned, has it been necessary to
extend the excavations to the depth of forty
feet, and nearly all the mineral deposits
have been found at much less than that
depth. From the formation of the country.
and the position of the lands which afford
the metal, tunneling it is practicable at
nearly every point ; • thus aflording the
'cheapest and most efficient mode of procur
ing the ore.
Indications of the presence of other met
als are nor wanting. Mingled with copper
in some instances, and seperate from it in
others, are evidences of the presence of tin,
bismuth, zinc, lead and even silver and gold.
In short there are now being brought to light
in this region, the richest imaginable varie
ty of mineral products, and there is proba
bly no locality in which an accomplished
minerologist could effect more for his repu
tation, and the geed of the community;'
that; in this neighborhood.
II Terrific Hail Storm..
Red Mod .dgeney, August, 1, 1811—
Dear Sir:— Some Indians who have just ar
rived, give an account of an extraordinary
and very severe hail storm, near the red
pipe stone quarry.
On the 25th nit., a party of Sioux encamp
ed near the red pipe stone quarry. observed
a black cloud rising in the northwest, which
slowly shifted somewhat to the south, plac
ing it in a western direction from the en- .
campment of the Indians, who were watch
ing its movements with great interest, it be
ing, as they aver, the "most awful looking
cloud ever seen." But little thunder was
heard as the cloud advanced, and but little
rain fell; but a most terrific storm of hail
fell about the lhoimi camp, some fifteen or
twenty minutes. which caused the occupants
to have serious apprehensions for their
lives.
The hail stones are represented to have
been at least •one halt larger than a goose
egg. The new tlk skin lodges occupied
by the Inditns were literally riddled to pie
ces; and one of the Indians, who was so un
fortunate as to have one of the pieces of hail
fall upon his shoulder, is still sufferinase
vnrely from the injury. Another Ind ian
received a blow on the foot from one of the
hail stones, and his foot and ankle tire still
much swollen from the effects of the blow.
The Indians represented the vegetation
to have been completely mashed to pieces,
from the fall of the hail upon it. They rt.:-
poll the size of tLe hail to have been far be
yond anything preViously heard of, and go
so far as to say that, in 'many places, the
hail had very clearly marked the pipe stone
upon which it fell.—St. Paul _Pioneer. .lu

Yankee Clocks for Chini and Japan.
We saw a few days since, the latest
piece of Yankee clock-ingenuity ; a clock
forthe Japan and Chinese markets, it mea
sures time as the hours are counted in Chi
na and Japan, the bands making a diurnal
revolution within twelve Chinese hours.—
The characters upon the dial plate are Chi
nese. The inside circle has four charac
ters, showing sun-rise, meridian, sun-set and
midnight. The'• next circle ex liibitigthe odd
and even hours ; the even hours are desig
listed by a bold finger, and the odd hours
by smaller ones. The dial there hue{ the
common minute marks, and at the extreme
outside was the Chinese numerals, running
from one to twelv - e. This clock was invent
ed by S. N. Botsford, ‘3l - New York. In
connecticin with - the above article, we will
look at the probable results to arise from the
introduction of this clock into the two mar
kets. Our recent i treaty with Japan has
opened three of her cities to our ehinaaawce,
it is not ideal to suppose that through . ' the
introduction of American clocks a consider
able trade will spring up. •
A LITTLE: EIUEBAND AND LITTLE WIFE.-
The Sandusky Register is responsible for
this . Two little.children—a boy and girl,
aged four and three years resptctively—
were missed by their families, and search
made every where for them, but in vain.—
The day passed and considerable alarm ex
isted. Persons were out in all directions
and the bell-ringer had been sent for when,
passing a thicket • of bushes in the garden,
the mother thought she heard low voices
near. Pulling away the leaves there were
the truants, with their night clothes on lock
ed in one another's arms and very comfor
tably stowed away for the night. ,The'pre
cocious lovers were stirred from their nest,
bdt the boy expressed the utmost indigna
tion, for, said he, •the hired man had mar
ried me and sissy, and that bush' house was
hizzen arid they was. a goin' to live there
till it rained." The denouement was so
comical that it was. concluded to let the ba
bies be married until they had a falling out.
which occurred the next day, and now they
live apart—a separated man and wife.
