A PUBLIC! PArilkil
There is a proverb that the Hindoos have,
which says that "he who !lath planted a
Banyan tree bath dune his duty to posterity."
In our city there has been= no regard for the
spirit of the India-: proverb. We have hew
shade trees on our public streets, and noth
ing which bears the faintest resemblance t a
public park, where the L.red denizens of the
city might expand their lunga by a breath of
fresh air—where the children might develope
their limbs by healthful exerci , e, and where
even a small specimen of the green glories of
nature might be daily presented to the eve,
at: a relief from dusty streets and red hriA,
walls. It must be eentessed that we of the
present generation have grave cause of
onu
plaint against those whose posterity we are,
for neglecting, in early days, when laying
out the city, to provide the corporation with
lunge in the shape of public parks. But
complaint is useless, and all that remains i. ,
for us to provide, as far as we can, a remedy
for the neglect
. of our forefathers. This is
not so altogether impracticable as Como would
have us u p pus e it is. There is ruin fur
public grounds out on Boyd's LLB, and also
uu the side of the hill above the Filth \% ard,
which we hope may yet ho set apart fur this
purpose.
But it may be some time hetoro a movement
will again be made tor a public park on a
large scale, and, meantime, we are rejoiced
to learn that a number of wealthy and enter--
prising citizens of the Second Ward are moos
ing in the matter of endeavoring to have the
present unsightly sheds removed from the
Scotch Hill Market Place, and to have rile
strip of ground from Grant street to the
Canal laid out and improved as a park on a
small scale. The property was originally
released to the city by the late General
James O'Hara, for the purposes of a mar
ket, bkit , it is no longer necessary for this
purpose, and to enclose it with an iron fence,
and beautify it with trees and fountains,
would add greatly to the value of the adja
cent property, and we have no doubt that an
arragement can readily be entered into with
the city and the heirs of those who originally
released the property for market purposes,
to divert it to the uses . of a public park. The
gentlemen who have initiated the pro . ject
have enterprise, energy and ample means,
and those interested interested in the rever
sion of the property will be glad on account
of the advantage to their adjacent lots, to
have the park replace the market house, and
will one and all give their cont..eni: to the pro
pasod change from hen coops and onions, to
green grass plots, dowers and fountains. Let
these Second Ward gentlemen push ahead,
" plant their Banyan tree," and do their duty
to posterity.
The Floods.
' The heavy rains have done more in ischief
in the west than in any other quarter. All
the groat streams which drain the interior
basin, from the Mississippi to the Allegheny
}Mountains, have been swollen beyond bounds
stud overflowed the country. All the river
bottoms have suffered in losses of property,
and a number of the towns built upon low
lands are surrounded with water. Cairo.
which has suffered again, had about ten
\thousand inhabitants. The town of Cahokie,
an old French settlement on the Illinois side
of the Mississippi, was so surrounded with
water that steamboats had to take the inhabi
tants from the;r houses. Down the Wabash,
in Illinois, through the Miami and Sciota,
in Ohio, there has I considerable proper
ty destroyed. We give in another col
umn some particulars u! the overflow. It is
the greatest flood that has been in that quar
ter for eleven years, the last being in Di 47 .

To-night Mr. and Mrs. John Drew take a
benefit at the National Theatre. Two more
capital artists have not appeared in Pitts
burgh for many years. Mr. Drew is the best
of the Irishmen, and in all the role of com
edy he has few equals anywhere. llc e -
LibitB in his deliniations the richest humor,
the must careful appreciation of character,
and the most perfect skill as an artist. Mrs.
Hunt is one of the most clever natural ac-
tresses now upon the stage. Years ago, as
Mrs. Bunt, she Was a great favorite in Pitts
burg. Since that time she has greatly im
proved, and has now but few equals on the
stage. The play to-night will be Burkstone's
comedy of " Leap Year "—its first production
bete—and a most exquisite comedy it is.
Mrs. Drew appears as Miss O'Leary, and Mr.
Drew as Mr. Simple. The performance will
conclude with " More Blunders than One," in
which Mr. Drew plays a side-splitting Irish
part. As really deserving artists are alwgys
well appreciated in this city, we shall expect
to see a crowded and fashionable audience at
the new National to,night.

The integrity or the CabineL
We have no desire to dignify the assertieue of
idle rumor by denial; bu' yet it is sometimes ne
oeseary to notice them in order to protect the
public from imposition by the emphnsi: , and con
fidence with which they are reputed.
Although the present ce.:63et is probably the
mo,t harrnz:ulc.us one that bas ever existed in the
history of the government, the public is every
c‘.tv and then edified by so ae cunningly-devised
obis dtseenuto4s, jsaloub:es, end alienations
anobg its members. We believe the latest in
nior of the sort refers to the Secretaries of Tree
el-try and of War. It proclaims, first, an aliona
ti,An between these two g.mtleak,o, and, second.

post tine ! The first part of the nil-gation obtain

ast announces to be at dagger's draw
As to the recent effort of a di .:carded officer of
tilt government to dignify his little grittance by
It upon en alleged cabinet quarrel, and
te swell the dimensions of his own supposed
wrongs by identifying them with the fancied
wrongs of a member of the administration, the
idea is too romantic for the homely matter-of-fact
r f office-holding and office-losing, and belongs to
the departutent of hution. It is probable that
the publication, in due time, of the documents
connected with the removal in question, will re
lieve it very much of the epic gloss in which it
has been presented to the world.
HENRY Wnan BEIIOIIEIi says that men's pas

IMMENSE LOSS OF PROPERTY 1
FURftir;R RISE IN THE RIVER
arrived here at 10 o'clock, A. and found
evecyttii.i.g in the w o.debt confusion. It has
rained almost incessaatly for the past three
mouths, ewo ling the rivers uut of their banks,
carrying desolattuu in their pathway. Thous
ands upon thousands of acres of land, above and
below. has bean laid waste, and millions of dol
lars have been lost. Yesterday morning a die-
CILIQI shock of an earthquake was felt here, and
at six o'clock in the evening the •' cross levee"
broke, wnen the avatar, which was twelve or &-
teec teet above the level of the town, outside
came dashing, foaming and seething inside. Toe
break was so unexpected, that the inhabitants
were taken by surprise, and many of them only
Lad time to escape, with their families, to the
levee, botore the torrent swept away their homes.
In many iustanoes boats and rafts had•to be re
storted to fur the means of escape. To-day
every person is busily engaged in rescuing
what property tney sately can from the floating
houses.
Breakteast was served to the guests at the
Taylor douse in the second story, knee deep in
tue outinary department being carried to

etch weal, and rising at toe rate of four inches

The Ohio levee is the only place of
.refuge
'eft, it being only some seventy-five feet wide and
three fourtus of a mile iu length; here a •• mix
sight is presented to the beholder—every
auluitite and inanimate thing saved from the de
stroying element is seen—'•tne beggar in his
rigs,'• crinoline and broadcloth, DULOiI, Irish, ne
grecs, and the Angio-Saxon ; pigs, calves, mules
and hor.sos ; turkies, chickens and geese ; boxes,
barrels and bales, bedding, cooking utensils and
baggage—together with many other articles, ~.ot
necessary to describe.
At one o'clock, p. in., nearly one half of the
now (unfinished) hotel, on the levee fell with a
deafening crash, preceded by a report equal to
a six pounder. The building was of brick, five
vi rice high, win' attic rooms, iron door and
window frames; cost nearly 4510U,U00. The re

Among a very few amusing incidents, was the
appearance of Col. Backer VII a raft floating
around for fun. Also, Lieut. Faxon and Ed.

the wrecks of houses, and making an ineffectual

A further rise of two or three feet will sweep si
lently over the site where Cairo once stood, but
?mere it will never stand again, forever!
A rumor is current that the levee was out by
a pectin living iu Mound City, as he was seen
in the neignborhood of the break a very short
time after the water commenced running in.
The railraad track has been washed away
north of town, with considerable of the trestle
work. Pa.sengers on the C. R. R. are trans
ferred to the Mound City train at the junction,
at which place they tako the packet for this
place.
Some three miles north, the Mississippisweeps
across to the Ohio river, with a strong current,
W LIIOL places this fated place on an island, in
fact.
Mound City being on nu elevation, has fared
some better than her sister town, but even there
a great portir , u of the place is submerged. The
Shelton hotel was preparing to-day for a fur
ther rise, by patting io a second floor, some
eighteen inches high. A portion of the first
floor was covered an inch or two with water, at
.p.m.
Every boat that leaves here carries a portion
of the unfortunate inhabitants away, from their
now desolate homes. Many of he business men
are made bankrupt by the flood.
Major Rawlings, of Mound City, informs me
that he has lived there fifty years, and that the
Ohio river is higher now than he has ever Been

Reverben !Inman Judgment.
Time trete toe value of ail human action, and
deeds that were thought glorious at the period of
their enactment wear a different hue when looked
upon, apart from the foolish surroundings of im
mediate victory. It is but a few years, com
paratively, since see were assured that the battle
of Waterloo had settled the condition of Europe
upon a permanent and imperishable basis; the
" era of revolutions," Lord Castleton declared to
have gone by forever ; and yet the Europe of
to-day is practically ignorant of any results from
the greatest of Wellington's achievements, and
even the British Queen finds its prudent to for
get, in the nephew's alliance, the implacable
nosulity with her gouty grandfather pur
sued the uncle.
These deeds of warriors and statesmen, so
much noised about in their day, are of little eig
uilicance when the true history of the world
comes to be written. Fulton and Watt, and
Morse, and Holloway—Jennings, the inventor
of Vaccination, and Arkwright, patentee of
Spinniug-Jennies,—it is to the lives of these,
the future historian must turn when he endeav
ors to account for the vast physical and mental
progress which characterized the first half of
the Nineteenth Century. He must consult the
life of Holloway in particular; for no where
else can he find so perfect a type of that com
bination of activity and erudition which forms
the distinctive development of our modern intel
lect. The wise e ud learned of former ages were
omnipotent in the academy, but helpless as new
born babes in the rough conflict with the world;
tbey confined the treasure of their genius to
some half score or two of credulous disciples;
but for the great masses of the people—the
projanura vulgue, as they call them—they cher
ished a profound contempt and hatred.
What a pleasing contrast to this exclusive
folly does the course of Professor Holloway at'.
ford! How much wiser, as the event has proved,
was MI to treat mankind with confidence, and
rather seek, to elevate them to his own intellec
tual and scientific platform, than to look down
upon them from an enviable and unapproachable
height! He has now made friends of the world
—of all races, ()reeds and tongues of man ; he
is looked up to by millions from all corners of
the earth as the physical redeemer who has dis
enthralled them, by his univeradi remedies, from
the bondage of disease. The world has not a
language in which the broad principles of his
Pathology have not been enunciated ; nor has the
earth a race of human beings so utterly barbarian
as to be ungrateful for the benefits his philan
thropy has has brought home to them. Indeed,
ingratitude is by no means a barbarian vice.
We find more of it among the polished circles of
society than amid the natural rudeness of a
savage camp. We could, at this very moment,
lay our hands upon hundreds who owe their very
twee to the use of Holloway's Pills and Ointment ;
ant yet, because they think it " more the thing"
to have a "family physician," you could not
offer them a worse insult than an intimation of
who it is that really has cured them.—New York

A GREAT BLESSING TO THE AFFLICTED.—
Tee number and formidable character of diseases of
the Liver have long challenged the attention of medical
men. Pomo of their diseases, classed under the general
term of Consumption, have been supposed incurable, and
the unhappy patient allowed to die, without medical science
to offer him a hope of recovery. Happily this can no longer
he the case. A remedy has been found which will care ail
complaints, of whatever character, arising from derange .
meet of the Liver. The Pills discovered by Dr.llP.Lane, pre.
pared solely by Fleming Bros., Pittsburgh, Pa., act directly
on the Liver; an I by correcting its operation and purifying
it from disease, cuts off and extirpates the complaints which
have their origin in the diseases of this organ. Remedies
hitherto proposed for liver complaints, have failed to oper

FIRST INTIMATION OF TilE DISASTER
The first intimation that the passengers or the
Diana received of the accident was from a signal
given by the inhabitants of a log cabin, about
fifteen miles abuse Helena. The cabin was par
tially submerged, and upon coming up to within
a short distance of it they were informed of the
explosion, and found two of the sufferers lying
there badly burned and scalded. They took the
poor people aboard, and upon hearing fr t l l.-It,
the.t uto_ny of the survivors were on bie , rd Iha

Upon arriving at the place where th...! Imperial
lay, the Diana found along aide of her the st, amer
Kate Frisbee.
THE APPEARANCE OY TEE CABIN OP THE KATE
MIMI
Mr. King says chat the cabin floor of the Kate
Frisbee presented the most horrible sight he ever
witnessed. From one end to the other lay, hud
dled together, the wounded, the dying and the
dead. The air resounded with the cries of sor
row or of pain, and the voices of the dying,
growing fainter and fainter, until their lips were
sealed, made an impreeeion upon the mind never
to be erased.
THE IMPERIAL
The Imperial also was crowded with the sur
vivors. Her cabin floor was put to the same
use as the Frisbee, and every officer on either
boat spared no pains to render every assistance
it was in their power to afford.
PASSENUEBS RESCUED BY THE DIANA
The Diana took about 100 of the, survivors
from the Imperial, and about 24 of the badly
wounded She left the wounded At Memphis.
where they were taker to the Hospital. Half
of them, at least, could not possibly recover.
The passengers of the Diana contributed $2OO
towards defraying their expenses at the liospi
t4l. As many of the survivors as desire! tl.)
so, came up on the Diana to Cairo.
THE OPERA TROUPE
There WKS an opera troupe on board the
Pennsylvania, on their way from New Orleans
to St. Louis. Most of the male members were
killed. Some three or four were put off at Mom
phis by the Diana, to be convoyed to the hos

company, whose name is not known, who woe
put off at Memphis. Hie aruis and hands wart
burned to a crisp, and from his internal euffer
ings, it was evident he had inhaled the hot steam.
He used to sing with Madame Devries, in thin
city ; a bass Finger, wore a large moustache, and
was of a very heavy build. He cannot possibly
survive.
Mr. King, in oonversation with the survivors
who came up on the Diana, learned the following
particulars :
OALISE OF THE EXPLOSION
The first fireman of the Pennsylvania has
been on her since her first trip. He stated that
they had just cleaned out the fire bed and start
ed fire, when the explosion took place. He at
tributes the cause to a want of water in the boil
ers. There were two explosions in quick suc
cession. He was blown into the water over the
side of the boat.
THE EXPLOSION
The boat separated from a line drawn across
the boat from the barber-shop and pantry.
Those who were in the forward part wero all
more or less injured—those in the aft portion
were scarcely touched. A double stateroom was
divided by the partition of the boat ; thost in
the forwardberths were killed—those in the rear
*ard were not in the least injured. Capt. Kline
fetter at the moment was in. the barber-shop, un
dergoing the process of being shaved, and he
was not harmed in the least particular. A pas
senger stated to Mr. King that the boat was so
crowded that he had to sleep up is Texas," it.
a room with four berths, with the watchman.
He, being in the rear berth, was saved, but as he
lay in his berth .paralysed with with terror, he
saw his room-mates in the two bertha opposite
go down into the river under the confused mass
of wreck.
MAN AND HIS WIFE BIIEtMED TO DEATH
A man and his wife were precipitated from
their stateroom upon the mass below, at the 6,11:11e
time a large portion of the wreck was suspended
over them. Upon this a boiler was thrown, and
while those above were endeavoring to rescue the
persons beneath, the whole pile was enveloped
in flames, and the unfortunate couple were soon
burned to ashes.
DESTRUCTION OF THE WRECK BY FIRE
The survivors floated down the river anon
half an hour before any assieteuoe m.un to Loeb
relief. When a flat-boat was out loone from it.
moorings by a party in a log cabin, and the boat
drifted down the stream, luckily it came in con
tact with the wreck, and in a few moments it was
tilled to ovotflowing. About 125 or 140 got on
the flat-boat and pushed away from the wreck,
leaving fifty thereon. It was the intention to let
the flat-boat float ahead to a tow head not far off,
and after discharging her freight, shove her out
and allow her to again float towards the wreck.
But before this could be accomplished, some bar
rels of turpentine in the hold of the wreck ig
nited, and in a few moments the whole mass was
in a sheet et flame. Every one of the fifty left
upon it was in a short time reduced to ashes
It was thought that there were about thirty
ladies in the ladies' cabin at the time of the ex
plosion. None of them were injured at that
time, but on the wreck that was consumed by fire
there were many ladies.
There were uo ladies on the Frisbee. There
were two Catholic Priests badly burned. One
died before the Diana left the Frisbee.
011/10ERS OP THE BOAT
The first engineer was asleep in his berth, and
so badly scalded that he died Boon afterwards.
Mr. King did not see him.
Pilot, mate, and first clerk were in the pilot
house, and all were blown overboard. The pilot
has not been heard from since. The mate was
very badly scalded, and oas scarcely survive.
The mate and first clerk, with a flat-boat pilot
from Louisville, swam to a temporary flat erect
ed for the purpose of affording assistance to
cattle that might be swept away by the flood.
The latter has reached the Diana, and states that
he left the first clerk upon the flat. since which
time no news has oome to hand of him
At the point of disaster the river 1:; at least
two miles wide. The whole country is submerg
ed. There was no hope fur the very best of
swimmers. The river swept with iremendous
force through the chute and bottoms, and in a
very short time all that could be seen of the ruin
was a smouldering mass resembling burning
brush half smothered by water.
naPTaut STURGEON, OF THI4 DIANA.
Too mach ',credit cannot be given to Captain
Sturgetin, of the Diana. Prompt to obey the
call of humanity, he spared no time, no exertion
in rendering all the assistance in his Dower, and
put his boat back fifteen or twenty miles in order
to rescue any of the survivors.
MR. SPENCEti'S STATEMENT
Mr. H. Spencer, barkeeper on the late steamer
Pennsylvania, safely arrived in this city last
evening, and furnishes further details of the
awful disaster described in our columns of yes
terday.
He states that at the time of the explosion,
the boat was stemming the current at a slow rate
of speed. Most of the passengers were still
asleep, it being so early as six o'clock in the
morning. The bursting steam from the boilers
blew outward, at once wrecking all the central
portion of the boat forward of the wheel-house.
Only the tow and stern cabins and decks re•
mained after the explosion. There were some
one hundred and fifty-nine deck passengers, and
a crew of forty or fifty deck hands, the most of
whom, it is feared, must at once have perished.
The Captain was at the instant in or near the
barber's room, and was unharmed. He in
stantly ordered the yawl to be sent to a wood
boat near by, which was towed alongside, and
thus many were saved from the spreading
flames. The lady passengers had time to
dress, and all those in the cabin are concluded
to be safe. But an elderly lady and her
daughter, who had preferred a state room near
the forward cabin, must, it is thought, almost in.
stoutly have been killed. Very many were res
cued in a direfully scalded or crippled condition.
By active exertions, the fire was kept under
while the passengers were removing from the
cabins to t4q. fig boat., The steamers Diana,
Imperial and Kate Frisbee were happily at hand,
and effected the rescue of many from the water
and from the wank. At length the danger grew
imminent that the flat boat would take fire, and
the heat of the burning vessel became almost
unendurable to - the passengers on the flat. She
was, therefore, but with extreme difficulty,
shoved off, there 'being but a single steering oar
by which to manage her. Scarcely any baggage
was saved. .do many people' Vier& crowded on
the flat boat that, to throw baggageamong them,
would have been disastrous: Cpt ' Kline-
felter, therefore, urged only the saving of the
pa , sengers, and ordered the baggage to remain.
The loss of the pilot, Mr. Brown, and of the
tir.t clerk, Mr. Lewis J. Black, is confirmed.
The tir,-t t,agineer, Mr. James Dore, escaped.
It is doubt.-t tlitvt: the second engineer, Mr.
Francis Dora , , wae killed.
