For a home-made disinfectant dissolve a bushel of salt in a barrel of water, and with the salt waterslack a barrel of lime, which should be wet enough to form a kind of paste. For a home-made disinfectant this chloride of lime is nearly as good as that purchased at the shops. Use it freely about the sinks, cellars, gutters and out-houses, and in this way prevent sick ness, suffering and expenses. —The match tax, now abolished, small as it was apparently, being only one cent on a constituted nearly two-thirds of the price for which matches were sold. The tax amounted to $1.44 a gross, while the matches were sold for $2. This instance of nearly til tax and but little property has had no match in our Internal-Revenue system since whisky worth fourteen cents a gallon paid a tax of $2. Matches now sell at eighty-five cents a gross, showing that the manufacturers have not thrown off all the tnx which they do not pay. —lt is always the xunepected that happens. An excursion under the auspices of the Mount Royal Beneficial Society of the Catholic church of Corpus Christi sailed on Monday of last week, from Baltimore to North Point Tivoli, a distance of ten miles. In the evening when the picnic party was about to return, the wharf on which the crowd stood waiting for the boat suddenly gave way and many persons were thrown into the water. The work of res cuing the drowning persons was greatly lm. peded by darkness, and many persons were knocked insensible in the water by chairs and other objects thrown to them. A coroner's in quest was held and some of the witnesses tes tified that the beams in the pier were rott« n- Seventy-five people were drowned. —Quite a "number of our citizens "took in'' tlie dedication of the new Orphans' Home near Ilannahstown last Sunday, and report having had a pleasant time. Some years ago Mr- Christian G. Oertel left a farm near the town to the Missouri Synod of the German Lutheran Church, and on this the synod built a large three story frame building suitable for an Orphans' Home. Last Sunday was dedication day, and about .'SOOO people came up in .three special trains from the cities, to take part in the services. A regular programme, which includ ed three sermons, was gone through with and there was some good singing by the three city choirs. Arrangements had been made for feed ing 4000 people, so that nobou j went away hungry. —The roof of the old Bauer machine shop was discovered to be on fire last Monday after noon. The alarm was sounded and the hose companies had streams of water playing on the roof so soon after that but little damage was done. The fire probably originated froin sparks from a farm boiler and engine that was stand, ing near the building and which was fired up. These engines exhaust through the smoke stack and as they were feeding with sawdust, a great many sparks were flying at the time. In running to the fire with one of the hose car riages Will Heineman tripped and fell, and was struck on the head by one of the wheels and knocked insensible. Our hose companies deserve great credit for their extraordinary ex pedition in getting to the scene of a fire. |jgf~Adverti«a in the CixiziN —Captain Webb has "gone to meet" Sam Patch.

Three towns, one of which contained 5,000 inhabitants were destroy ed. The island was a summer resort for the wealthy people of Rome and Naples, and there were at the time some 2,000 visitors on it mjinv of whom perished. The ground opened in many places and hundreds of houses contain ing people were engulfed. Two thousand sol diers digging in the ruins saved 1,000 lives up to midday Sunday and exhumed 24 persons alive on Monday. This is the horror of the many horrors of the year. Two Allegheny City saloon keepers, nam ed Rummel engaged in an enterprise in this county last Sunday, that came to grief. Know ing that there would be and immense crowd at the dedecation of the Orphans' Home, uear Hanuahstown, on that day, they had a shanty built in the woods, about half a mile from the grounds of the Home, and on Saturday shipped a large lot of beer, 40 or 50 kegs, together with sarsaparilla and other stuff, to it. Sheriti Donaghy heard of it and went down Sunday morning. Arriving there he found four men handing out beer as fast as they could and a crowd of perhaps 500 men and boys around the shanty drinking and waiting to be served. The Sheriff ordered them to desist, but wa 9 met with a flat refusal, whereupon he arrested tbem, and the crowd jumped over the counters and captured the beer. A rumpus ensued and the beer slinglers escaped, but they lost all their stock in trade, —We clip the following from an exchange It contains wliolt6ome advice. The cholera which is now desolating Damietra and other Egyptiau towns, appears to have had its origin in the filthy condition of the streets, the houses and the people. And this has almost always been the case. The scourge of our own typhoid fever, originates in much the same way. Impure water, foul sewers, offensive odors, these are the breeders of disease which sweep annually into the grave its thousands. The one lesson is, and it has been urged in these columus again and again, that regard for the safety of human life requires the mos 4 strenuous exertions to keep the streets and alleys, the homes of the people themselves as free from filth as possible. Providence only protects those communities and those persons that render Providence all the assistance in their power. —Correspondent "W." in last week's Iltr altl says: "The merchant or mechanic who ad vertises his goods in the papers does well, but the man who brings his goods before the eye does better. Many would buy an article they sec who would not if read about." And after reading this, the merchant or mechanic, may wonder what easier or cheaper methoAhere is for bringing his goods "before the eye." than by advertising them in the papers and thereby inducing people to come to his store or shop, where they can have the goods "before the eye" to their heart's content and compare qualities, styles and prices at their leisure. Does "\V" want the merchant to make a travelling cara van of his store and cart his goods all over the country, or does he want him to stretch a rope across the street and hang them on that. Any thorough going business man will inform "W" that newspaper advertising is the best of all advertising, where you have the stock to back up your advertisments. —That terrible disease—diphtheria— has already appeared in some of oar neighboring towns, anil if Butler escapes another epidemic from this or some similar disease this Fall it will not be because it has not been invited by an almost total neglect of sanitary measures in many quarters. It is the duty of everyone to see that his own premises are at once put into the best possible sanitary condition and to insist that his neighbor's *hall be also. These diseases are the direct and inevitable result of neglect of these matters. There are many gutters, drains, pig-pens and privies in this town that need immediate looking after. The stench that arises from some of them is terri ble and undoubtedly disease producing. By the laws of this State boroughs have the power to prohibit and remove any nuisance or offen sive matter, either on public or private grounds or to require the removal of the same by the owners, and to prohibit the keepißg of hogs within the borough or within such limits as the council may prescribe and it is made the duty of the Burgess or chief officer to remove such nuisancer. If any information is made against a jierson maintaining a nuisance, and the person be convicted, he or she can be fined or imprisoned, or both, at the discretion of the Court, and the Court can direct either the de fendant or the sheriff at the expense of the de fendant, to remove the nuisance. The Battle of Bushy Run. We have received an invitation to attend the celebration of the 120 th anniversary of the bat tle of Bushy Run, to be held on the buttle field, in the western part of Westmoreland county near Manor Station on the P. K. R., on the oth inst. Several distinguished orators will be present, as will also the military organizations of the county and neighborhood and several brass bands. Refreshments will be furnished on the grounds and the affair will probably par take of the nature of a big picnic. Most of the trains on the P. R. R. will stop at Manor that day, anil hacks and carriages will run from the station to the ground. The battle of Bushy Run was fought on the sth and P>th days of August, 17*53, between the British and Colonists on one side anil the In dians under the lead of the celebrated cheifs, Pontiac and Guyasootha, on the other, and re sulted in the complete defeat of the Indians. The Guzrtte of a late date contained the fol lowing interesting history of the battle : "The treaty of peace between England and France, made at the close of the French and Indian war, was disregarded by the Indians, who continued their attacks upon the forts and settlements along the frontier of Pennsylvania, Maryland and \ irginia. After all the blood and treasure that had been expended in estab lishing English supremacy over the territory extending from the Ohio to the Lakes, only three of the strongest of the forts remained in English hands —Fort I'itt, Detroit and Niagara. The savages had made determined efforts to capture the fortification at the head of theJOliio, had cut off all communication, and the garrison was in very great danger of being captured. Niagara and Detroit were reached by water and more easily relieved, but Fort Pitt required a long and laborious march through an unbioken wilderness before it could be saved from threat ened danger. Colonel Henry Bouquet was ordered to march to the relief of the beleagured garrison at Fort Pitt, and it was on his march from Carlisle * > Pittsburgh that the battle of Bushy Run was fought. The first prominent mention of the name of Bouquet in our cjloiiial records was in a letter from Washington, who differed with him as to the route which General Forbes should pursue from Bedford to Fort Duquesne, in his expedition of 1758. Washington urged the old Braddock'road, but Bouquet favored a new route through Pennsylvania by the Loyal Hanning, which was adopted by Forbes. It was never satisfactorily explained why a new road through a wilderness and over mountains, for the distance of 100 miles, should have been preferred to one already o|>ened to a point near the fort, but 'Pennsylvania influence' is assign ed as the reason. Colonel Bouquet set out from Carlisle with a large quantity of military Htoresand provisions, escorted by what were left of two regiments lately returned from service iu the West Indies, with some provincial troops. General Amherst had no other soldiers to spare, al though the expedition required men ol the i highest vigor and courage. The fate of Brad dock was before the little army, and the whole country was panic-stricken through fear. His regular soldiers, about five hundred in number, were courageous and resolute, but worn out by fatigue and unaccustomed to Indian warfare. He reached Fort Bedford July 2t>, 1763, left that place on the 26th, and when he arrived at ■ Fort l.igonier he left his wagons there and pro- | ceeded on pack-horses. The Indians had heard of his com ins, abandoned the siege of Fort Pitt and went out to destroy his army as they had ( destroyed that of General Braddock eight years before. ' The defile at Turtle Creek was much dread ed, as it had to be passed through, was several ; miles in length and commanded bv craggy j hills, with which the Indians were perfectly | familiar. Bouquet's plan was to make a short ' stop at Bushy Run to refresh the troops, and to j pass through this defile at night by a forced march. When within half a mile of Bushy Run, at one o'clock of the afternoon ot August 5, after a hard march of seventeen miles, they were attacked by the Indians, who were very strong and able to surround the whole detach ment and attack the convoy in the rear. The main body had to fall back and protect the con voy. The action became hotter and hotter, but the savages were finally repulsed and driven from all their posts with fixed bayonets. The engagement ended only with the day. An anxious night was passed, and at day break the savages reuewed the attack with great vigor. They had takcu possession of all the springs, and the army suffered terribly from thirst. Many horses had been lost, it was impossible to advance, and the army expected to be cut to pieces by degrees. Then it was that Colouel Bouquet re orted to strategy whish gave him a complete victory. By a feigned retreat he completely deceived the savage- and led them into a lata', snare. Seeing what they supposed to be a backward move ment, the' Indians hurried headlong on the Eng lish, but soon received a galling fire in the flank, in which many were killed and the rest put to flight. Some stores had to be abandoned for want of horses, but the savages gave up all further attempts to prevent the movement of the army, which reached Fort Pitt in safety four days after the battle, and to the great joy and relief of the garrison and the settlers. '1 he Indians lost some of their bravest warriors in this battle and were completely subdued." Accident at Portersville. Mrs. Jacob Von Gordcr, an estimable old 'ady residing in Perry township, Lawrence county, met with quite a serious accident Tues day, while on a visit to her daughter, Mrs- Aiken, who lives at Portersville. The latter went to the cellar to get something for supper, and Mrs. Van Gorder, wishing to assist, went to meet her. It was quite dark, and the old lady missed the first step, becoming overbal anced, fell to the g-iound alighting on her head and breaking her collar bone. The jar on the nervous system is very great, and no hopes are entertained for her recovery. The unfortu nate lady and the members of her family have the sympathy of many friends, who are sin cere in the hope that she may yet rally and re cover, improbable as it seems at present.— New Castle News.

APPALLING SCENES. Twenty-Two Travelers Instant ly Killed and Many are .ALBION, N. Y., July 29.—The steam boat express on the Niagara Falls di vision of the Rome, Watertown and Ogensburg Railroad met with an acci dent frightful in its consequences late Friday night. The train was an enor mous one—a double header, as those are called that are dragged by two en gines—and the engines were followed by six sleepers and six ordinary coaches. It was bound from Niagara to Clayton, whence its passengers were to take a boat to the Thousand Islands. It was behind time and swept along at 40 miles an hour. The way was along the south shore of Lake Ontario. Suddenly, when it neared Clayton it dashed into a thunder squall of unusual violence. The rain fell in sheets, the wind roared and pressed heavily against the cars, and while the thunder was heard above the rumble and clat ter of the train, frequent flashes of light ning illuminated the couotry side. There were two hundred people in the cars, mainly pleasure seekers, and near ly all from Michigan. A box freight car had been standing in a siding near Carylon, and had either been blown along to the junction of the siding and main track or had been pusned there by some malicious person. It rested so that one of its corners projected beyond one rail of the main track, and the swiftly moving ex press train ran against it. Instantly, and without any apparent ioss of head way, the engines, baggage car and two of the sleepers left the rails and heaped one upon the other—a mass of wreck age—beside the track, blocking the way of the rest of the cars and partial ly wrecking many of them. It is re ported that the crash was heard three miles away. The cries and shrieks of the wounded added to the horrors of the situation for those who have des cribed the scene, and who could not in the darkness and amid the blinding and deafening storm comprehend the ex tent or exact nature of the disaster. The country is very sparsely settled there, and assistance came slowly. The awful details were speedily gathered, and it was soon known that '22 persons had l>een killed and twice as many injured Eighteen of those who suffered death were passengers and four were train hands. —The ease and naturalness in the Photographs made by Dabbs is their great merit.

It is thought the deaths will amouDt to 100. The greatest excitement prevails here. Up to noon 65 bodies have been brought to the city. All, except four, have been identified. A3 soon as the bodies had been de posited on the wharf the barge went back to Tivoli, and before 7 o'clock this morning had returned to Henderson's wharf with her second load of dead bodies, number over 30. By this time the news of the calamity had spread throughout the city and thousands gath ered at the wharf and in the vicinity. Throughout the night many persons, fathers, mothers, brothers and friends connected with the excursionists had gathered at the Light street wharf, where the barge usually lands, anxious ly awaiting her arrival and apprehend ing a disaster when the boat did not come at her usual time. As the hours wore on past midnight, and there were yet no tidings of their friends, their fears were increased to almost a con viction that a dreadful accident had be fallen the party. At a latter hour their fears were realized when the facts be came known. As fast as the bodies were identified by relations and friends they were taken to their respective homes. The unidentified bodies were carried to the Eastern Police Station, to re main until recognized or otherwise dis posed of. The coroner will commence an official investigation this evening. Statements in regard to the immediate cause of the accident are conflicting. It is stated by some that the barge was already lying alongside the wharf, and a gang plank being run out, when it gave way and that it fell from the sheer weight of the crowd upon it. Others are of the opinion that the wharf was carried away by contact with the barge. —Dabbs, the celebrated Pittsburgh Photographer, succeeds in getting a good likeness and at the same time a pleasing picture.

Webb, of England, to swim through the rapids near the old Suspension Bridge this afternoon, re sulted as nearly everybody predicted, in the noted swimmer's death. John McClay rowed Webb into the middle of the river near the new bridge and at a few minutes past four o'clock he jumped out and began his swim down the stream. There were few people in attendance and little interest was taken in the affair. Webb had calculated to keep near the Canadian shore as he passed the rapids but the bend in the river here threw him to the opposite side, unpset his calculations and sent him to eternity beneath a forty-foot wave that the next instant dashed against the rocks on the right shore. The last seen of Webb he was throw ing up both arms and signaling vainly for aid. He leaves a wife and two children in rather destitute circum stances in England. Frederick Kyle, Webb's manager, has caused a dili gent search to be made for the body, but without success. BUFFALO, X. Y., July 29.—A1l speculation aa to the fate of Captain Matthew Webb, the courageous swim mer who tried to pass through the Niagara whirlpool, is now at rest, the body of the unfortunate man having been found at noon yesterday in the Niagara river, a mile and a half below Lewiston. The body was fully identi fied. The corpse was much swollen, and was rigid in the position of a man swimming, both arms and legs being extended. There were no fractures o discolorations of the limbs, but on the top of the head was a contusion which was the evident cause of death. The bodies of two Indians who were drowned while bathing near the Devil's Hole on Monday night were also found in the river near where Webb's body was recovered. The Great Northwest.
