W. was visited by @ hurricane Friday evening, doing much damage to prop- erty. The recent heavy rains in the lower part of the province have destroyed all hopes of saving the hay and grain crop, which promised so favorably. Much euffering is an- tipated this coming winter in consequence of this disaster. Three hundred delegates to the Soldiers and Sailors, Cleveland Convention have arrived— not enough to give any indication of the spirit er intention of the convention. There are complainss of the cool reception of the dele. gates, no formal reception being given them. A special despatch from Berlin. by the At- Iantic cable, announced a threatened war in Germany.

Three traders, their 8quaws and children, living on Tongue river, were killed and scalped. The Indians stole all the stock at Big Horn Ferry, and drove the ferrymen off. The Blood indians have ran off large amounts of stock, and are committing depredations at Fort Wil- liams. Two men were killed. - Fifteen hundred Santee Indians have passed Fort Union on the war path. They stole all the stock at Post Santee and Minnesota The Sioux have bad a fight, in which fifteen of them were killed. Great danger is apprehended from the Lo- gan and Blood Indians in Montana. They at- lacked the stage on the Pacti. killed a passen- ger, and shot the horses. They stole all the stage stock from a station west of Uotton wood. evel were vent in pursuit, but without effect. AMENITIES OF PoLiTics.—Dovring a cam- Paign speech at Plymouth. Indiana, a few days ago, Governor Oglesbey during a speeeh in favor of the Radicals, attempted to blarney the Irish by abusing the President and Secre. tary Seward, for enforcing the neutrality laws during the recent Fenian raid in Canada. An irisbman in the crowd asked Him why Con- gress did not repeal the neutrality laws dur- ing that raid, instead of spending their time passing bills over the President's veto. A clap of thunderin a cloudless aky could not have produced a greater sensation. Amid profound silence fur a moment, the nonplussed Governor and his Irish questioner looked at eaeh other. It was becoming painfully evi- dent that the Irishman had him. “You are 4 traitor!” shouted the Governor, no longer able to control bimeelf. «You are & liar!” coolly answered the Lrish- man. «You were sent pera by the Copperheads to create a row.” exclaimed the Governor. ‘That's another lie!" replied the Lrishman. “J can whip you! I can mash your old head any day!” sho’ the en) Governor. Amid the confusion which followed, the lrishman’s further replies could not be heard. Order was soon restored, and no further inter- ruptions occurred. a7" An Ei letter-writer says that Ger- ald Massey is passionately immersed in spir- itualism, and ts indeed himself a medium. He confides to his friends that every idea in his new book on Shakes: "se sonnets was ob- tained directly from ghost of Shakespeare himself. He says he went over the sonnets line by line with the spirit, and had the an- thor’s interpretation of each. He did not state this in bis book, for fear of exciting the preju- dice of the publicagainst it. 7A fur tracer lately went up Gateneau River, Canada, with a small stock of whiskey. He succeeded in making considerable profit on his capital.but was cautioned by the squaws nottoreturn. Not heeding the warning, he bronght again two barrels highwines, which ‘were promply roiled off the cart down the bank of the river.

GREAT DEMONSTRATION. 2. — SPEECHES OF THE PRESIDENT AND MAYOR WALLACH. ————— in our second edition, on Saturday, we gave 4 full account of the arrangements being made for the public reception of the President and party on their return to the Metropolis. We now bave to state that we have seldom seen a @teater or more enthusiastic demonsiration in this city than was witnessed on the President's arrival. He was expected at 5 but did not reach here until about 7 o'clock, and in the interval the crowd was augmented by thousands though many left for their homes. The City Councils having taken the matter in hand, the Committee of Arrangements on their part, by various sub-committees, had arranged the de- tails of the procession and reception, and the arrangements ee vemeen | Scquiesced in by the citizens, everything went off in a very sat- isfactory manner. Colonel Tait was appointed chief marshal for the occasion, and during the afternoon, forsome hours previous to the ar- rival of the train, he and bis assistants were kept busy in arranging the details, while the police force in large numbers, whose move- mente were superintended by Major Richards in person, under the immediate charge of Oap- tain B. M. Reed, the inspector of the force, ma- terially aided the marshal and commitiwe in their duties, a number being judiciously posted about the City Hall, in and about the depot, and at the Presidential Mansion. Seeretaries Stanton, Browning, McCulloch, Randall, (who arrived in the forenoon,) with Judge Gtto, Generals Canby, Emory and Thomas, (of the Q uartermaster’s Department,) and the staff of each with the commanding of- ficers of the escort, with Attorney General Stanberry, General Rucker, Commodore M Smith, Commissioner of Agriculture Newton, Assistant Secretaries Faxon, of the Navy, and Hartly, of the Treasury it, arrived atthe station about 6.30, and after the crowd bad been cleared from mgd seven they, with several representatives of the press, passed through the gate to the platform—it being un- deretood that the party would shortly arrive. At precisely seven o'clock the whistle of the approaching train was heard, and in a few moments thereafter the head of the train en- tered the depot, the howitzer battery firing « salute, while cheer upen cheer rent airand numerous handkerchiefs were waved. As soon as the train was stopped the Presi. ident and Dand-shaking took place, after which they h the it, the President being accom; ied by President Lioyd, of the Board of Al m, followed by Sec: elles Wwe with Capt Moore, President of the Bouse of Common Council, and the others of the party, ‘who were seated in the carri: in waiting, the crowd cheering almost continuously. They ‘were then driven along the line of the military, cary aa acting att eee ae and the mili- under & “present,” tatter falling in the rear, they proceeded to the City Hall— the Navy Yard delegation, with the howitsers, passing up at the same time. the City Hall hat the President had arrived. Cheer upon cheer went up amid the Waving of handkerchiefs by the ladies, and all were eager to get a view of the party. Followed by the escort, the carriages were driven to the front of the building, and the party ascended the steps through an opening made by the mil- itary and police, and, arriving near the top step, Mayor Wallach, taking the President by the hand. delivered the following neat address of welcome: THE MAYOR'S WELCOME. Shaking hands with the President, Mayor Wallach mace the following appropriate speech of welcome: Every street has sent forth its resident, every alley its inbabitant, and under almost the ver’ dune of the voi, DALOWed by memories 0} noble men and great events, the people of ‘Washington are gathered to tender to you, sir, and the distinguished associates of your jour- ney, an earnest and hearfelt welcome to the bome fixed by the Constitution, for which you —— somuch reverence, as your official res- idence. How lively a satisfaction this event of your return to their midst occasions your fellow- citizens and neighbors ef the metropolis of the Union this multitade of tpturned and arxious countenances, moved by one impulse of for you, more readily portrays than any jan- guage of mine. Disfranchised though they be, they have in common with the whole country an interes: preserving and showing reverence for the au- thority of the laws, as well as for what they are now here to show, respect for those who fearlessly and honestly execute them. ite whole population has, therefore come oat to greet you, eager to attest their appreciation of your unimpeachable integrity as a man and public functio! + and that reverence which on every principle of national pride, honor, and patriotism is due to your elevated posi- tion.
