Destruction of the Town of Da-
roca, Spain, by a Waterspout.
A letter in the Madrid lYibune of Sept.
17th, gives an account of a terrible and ex
traordinary catastrophe that bad occured at
Liaroca, a small town in Arragon, situate in
a rich and fertile valley, abunding in' corn
and wine. From its situation, in a deep hol
loa, completely sunounded by mountains,
this place is peculiarly liable to inundation ;
and as a remedy, a tunnel was cut in 1560,
by a Frenchman named Pierre Bedsill. This
tunnel is a magnificent work, 2340 feel long,
24 (eel wide, and 25 feet high. The enter
prise was patronized by the Pope, and assis
ted o y alms from all Christendom. Previous
to Us achievement, the waters that flowed at
wet seasons from two leagues of mountain
rushed through the streets of the town on
their way to the rivet.
It appears that on the lllh September, at
three in the afternoon, an immense water
spout, rising from the Lake of Galtocahta,
remained /or a considerable lime hovering
over the shore, about a league from Daroca.
When it burst the whole district was conver
ted into a lake. The waters poured dojvn in
the direction of the tunnel in a stream much
larger, it is said, than the Ebro or Tortosa,
and, seen from an elevation, appeared like
moving mountains of liquid. The dimen
sions of the tunnel, which has a very decided
slope, were insufficient to allow the passage
of the vast mass, which then moved past,
forming a spacious sea. This extended it
self towards the town, at two hundred yards
from which it was arrested by the causeway
(hat has frequently saved Daroca, when me
naced by perils of a similar nature, but less
magnitude. Above this causeway the wa
ters rose, heaping themselves up on it, says
the account, to the height of three yards, and
kthen plunging down on (he unfortunate town.
■ The gateway, although an unusually large
one, was not large enough to allow their en
trance, and another great lake was formed
against the walls, which presently began to
crumble under its pressure. “ What then
occurred,” says the teller, “ is an inexplica
ble thing. The waters fought with and
overthrew those houses whose position oppo
sed their current. They carried away the
fountain of San Pedro, and opening great
trenches and bursting open the doors of the
Pocado and of several shops, they spread
through the squares and streets, inundating
wine cellars, warehouses, and the first floors
of (he houses; in some, reaching up to the
very roofs. Throwing down walls, and
abandoning everything, the inhobitants fled
to Ihe mouniains, whence they looked on at
the horrible catastrophe.
The loss has been incalculable. In the
vaults water has replaced wine; the contents
o;' the shops are spoiled, and many honses
are crumbling away. In the plain around
the town, the inundation has destroyed eve
■rung. A young woman of twenty was car
ried away by the torrent, and maay children
and adults are missing. In the first moments
the anxiety was horrible. None thought of
anything but of counting their families, and
seeing if any were absent. The animals
Itial have perished are innumerable ; among
them many of the farm horses of the unfor
tunate peasants. It is horrible, “ God have
inerev on us I’’

We have seen at a; single towntralhing,
more (ban two hundred men am) l*oya> oraay
drunk. At every election of-Vnew captain,
rum was brought out in pailsfull,-free for
'thettaib band and all'the’spectators to drink
as long as they could stand. - True they did
not all get down, though some of them did,
wallowing in Ibe. mdd, but they got "so they
yelled like savages, and were as full of foot
ish antics as a herd of monkeys, and often,
as mischievous. We have;seen a thousand
drunken Indians in Cbe cdm'pßny, but they
did not behave worse lhab we have eeen
companies of men in Connecticut. Wo have
seen the reverse of this picture. ''
On Thursday lost we saw the largest
company of people together that we ever
saw in (hat Stale, and we have never seen a
better ordered assembly—no drinking, at
least in sight, and no one daring favor the
practice in secret, to be seen intoxicated in
public; and here, we believe,,not ono was
seen. In all that assembly not a yell of
angry oath, not a fight or foolish scuffle, no
racing and running afoul of one anolher and
breaking wagons and limbs, and injuring
horses—no uncontrollable turbulence, or dis
turbance of the quiet portion of the people
by the recklessness of those who drank
strong drinks ; but one universal scene of
harmony through the day and peaceful qui
et through the night. “If such are the fruits
of the Maine law, said a man to us who had
been opposed to its passage, “ God forgive
me for what I have done against it, and in
his strength will I repent and never oppose
so good a measure again. But I did not be
lieve it could be enforced, or that it would
work in such perfection.” *
Similar remarks we heard from all, and
that was not a few, that we talked with upon
the subject. We could not hear of a single
mao who would openly advocate (he repeal
of the law ; not even the liquor dealers, who
have generally acquiesced in the law without
grumbling.
The only difficulty in the way of the com
plete eradication of drunkenness from Con
necticut, is the facility of getting liquor from
New-York. Every steamboat that arrives
at New-Haven has more or less smalt pack
ages for individuals, containing something to
feed that depraved appetite, so long accus
tomed to stimulant that is hard to give up the
practice. But the liquor so imported is not
for sale, and is generally beyond the reach
of the moat drunken part of the community.
It is for a class of “moderate drinkers,”
who will use it while (hey can get it in this
way, but who would be the last to vote for a
restoration of the same privilege to all the
old soakera in the State.— N. Y. Tribune.
What U Coit to put Col. Beaton
Down.
When, ripe in years and experience, Col,
Benton deemed it his duty to devote himself
to his country rather than bis party, where,
as the attempt to embroil us in a war with
England about Oregon, the, lines diverged,
the democracy decided that he must be put
down.
The first point was to get the veteran out
of the Senate, to accomplish which the dem
ocracy of Missouri supported the whig candi
date. By a union, therefore, of the whigs
and anti-Benton democrats in the Missouri
legislature upon a whig, Colonel Benton was
beaten.
But the electors of the Missouri district,
resenting the wrong done to a distinguished
statesman, immediately elected him to the
House of Representatives, where the country
has had the benefit of his talents, courage,
firmness, and wisdom through a protracted
and evenlful'scsaion.'
But his enemies were at bis heels. His
exclusion ftpm the House of Representatives
was decreed. And in this, Senator Atchison
had the assistance of the administration. —
Colonel Benton, to aid bis enemies, had op
posed the Nebraska swindle. There was,
however, but one-way to secure his defeat,
even with slavery arrayed against him. The
Atchison and Pierce democracy, almost en
masse, voted for the whig candidate, who is
chosen.
And to avoid against the possibility of Col.
Benton’s re-election to the Senate, the war
upon him is kept up throughout the State ;
and as a consequence, six whig members of
Congress have just been chosen in a State
which, until the business of breaking : down
CoL Benton commenced, had not senfawhig
to Congress in a quarter of a century. ' '
The third and probably the last act in this
political drama opens with Senator Atchison
and Col. Benton as antagonist'candidates,for
U. S. Senate. And here there ia
probability of a “ Kilkenny fight.” Col.
Benton jmy be again beaten, but in the con
diet his “ bitter end” persecutors will proba
bly fall also.
As the final result, therefore, of (be cru
sade against Col. Benton, democratic Missouri
will probably find.herself* y»i<h two whig sen
ators and six whig representatives.

" This is, without exception, the most comprehen

It ts free from all objectionable matter, arid no. par

the hands of his sons. The author has devoted ma

treated of, and with too little breath io puff and too
little presumption to impose, be has offered to the
world at the merely nominal price of 25 cents, the

" No teacher or parent should be hnowlede impar

pain and mortification and sorrow to the youth un

A Presbyterian clergyman in Ohio, writing of
"Hunter's Medical Manual" says "Thousands
upon thousands of our youth, by evil example and
influence of the passions, have been led into the
habit of self-pollution without realizing the sin and
fearlhl consequences upon themselves and posterity.
The constitutions of thousands who are raising fam
ilies have been enfeebled, if not broken down, and
they do not know the cause or eure. Anything
that can be done so to enlighten and influence the
public mind as to check, and ultimately to remove
this wide spread source of human wretchedness,
would cbnlbr the greatest blessing next to the relig
ion of Jesus Christ, on the present and coming gen
eration. Intemperance (or the rise of intoxicating
drinks) though it has slain thousands upon thou,
