gives an account of a rainstorm, that occur
red ia that section, which proved vwry
destructive to tree*. H* any*: It com
menced to rain on the 7th intt., and con
tinued for 24 hours. The rain frcs* as it
fall, thus forming heaps of ica upon the
trees, and breaking thaw down. Tb* ap
ple tree* suffered greatly ; while the poach
trees, which ware very plenty, scarcely
one remains standing in tha county.
Heavy timber suffered equal destruction.
The forests which are computed mostly oi
oak, hiekoYy, maple, chestnut, etc., are
perfectly belt*red down Part of the
country is impassable on account of the
fallen timber. The falling and crashing
ot trees resembled the distant cannonading
in time of battle.

LKTTFRPROM ILLINOIS.
OaAxaavrua, 111., Jan. 12th, 1874.
Mi KDITOE :—As 1 see soma remarks
.in the Reporter nearly every weak from
'tome of your Centre county hunters, and
as the hunting season is now about over, I
thought it would perhaps interest some ef
them to have a repert .from seme of their
Illinois friends who used to hunt in com
pany with some of them. We do not have
our hunting grounds as convenient as wa
bad before we left old Centre ceunty, but
Jeer are mote plenty. About the 3Xh of
November last, your correspondent in
Company with George and James Musser,
and Martio Dreibelbis, (the latter from
near Monroe Wis.,) started for Clark
oounty. Wis, about 240 miles northwest
from here by railroad, and 110 miles south
east from St. Paul, Win, with previsions
en ough to spend a few weeks in the pine
forests of north western Wisconsin, be
tween the Black and Chippewa rivers.
We arrived st the hotel of Wm. Hawk,
Sergeant on tke 'evening 'of our second
day's travel, (it being the point we started
for), which is the head quarters of hunters
and lumbermen in thet section. The first
thing which attracted eur attention was
seven very fine dev hanging on a pole be
fore the houte, which were brought down
j by the unerring aim of eur fHend Hawk.
I do not think it nectsary to describe to
your Pennsvalley hunters how the sight of
those deer raised eur hunting spirit; but
we almost fait inclined to strike out
immediately and take a short hunt, but
i were persuaded by Hawk, to deebt, wko
promised to Airniah us with s good supper
of venison, in which he did not diaeppoint
us either, for hit lady knows just kow to
gel up s good meal; and I presume she
thought we knew bow to do it justice by
the wayfthings disappeared from that table.
Our obligiag host also tarnished us with
aa excellent cabin which wa might occu
py as long aa we wished to remain, and in
every possible manner assisted us to make
us feel comfortable and at home. Wa
found deer plenty and the snow nearly
two feet deep in tha swamps, but not qu its
so deep on tha ridges. We were gone two
weeks ; killed ten deer and wounded five
more that we did not on account of|
not having a dog with us. Mr. D. Graves,
from Esu Clare, Wis., killed sixty three
deer sad five bears this fall. He also in
formed me that over two thousand deer
were there within a radius of twanty-five
miles, within three month's time, the most
of which were shipped to Chicago. In
cleeiqg, Mr. Editor, 1 wish to axtend,
through your columns, a cordial invita
tion to any of your hunters, if any should
feel inclined to have a good time next fall,
to accompany us in trip to the wilds of
northvfrattarp Wisconsin.

Loor, Jan.. 14th, 1874.
BOM. F. KCETX:— Tha State Supeiin
> tendent of common schools, wisely end
truly said, in a speech in Lancaster city,
some time ago, that out of 17,000 teachers
in the State of Pann's, only 2,000 are fit to
teach, and from tha writings under the
heed of "Loop Brevities," clearly proves
i to a demonstration that that scribbler is
one of the former class. Hb absurb and
ludicrous language in reference to the
Loop girls proves clearly that he b a
blockhead of the baser sort, and a vilifier
and not worthy the respect and confidence
of gn enlightened community. The girls
of the Loop haye concluded to purchase a
pound of putty.to fill up the soft places in
hb cranium if they are so fortunate as to
find him in thb neighborhood.
Qo say* in on ol his articles, "I here
ban uk fa $p 20th time who i the
writer of Loop bflHfftlps ?" answer,
he says, "Ben Butler". fte baa truly nod
faithfully answered this question ; for the
world knows i*U Jbere is no greater liar
in the United States than Ben Butler, and
if he { not more caytipijs In fh* future his
last end will b# like bis-
If the writer of "Loop Brevities" is se
anxious to write for the press, he ought to
write about the girls of his own neighbor
hood, end net vilify the character of good,
honest, end upright girls, of whom he
knows nothing. A friend of the fair sex.

A FIRST CLASS SCANDAL
Fred. Grant and Brother-inlaw
Cany Booking liovenge.
[riper ial to Pittsburg 1-eadar]
Washington, 1), C, Jan. 12.- Tbit
morning 1 wo surprised, u u doubtless
many readers of Pialt'a Capital, to rod
tba following card at tba hand of tho edi
torial cotuiani t
"At it ia not cuitemary in civilised com
munition to coll ono to a poraonal account
in tba proaonco of bin fbinily, and an there
aro painful and imperative reasons why
wo abould object to auob a eourta, wo with
to aay that wo aro regular la attendance,
during buainoaa houra at our oßlce. Wo
aro lb ore every day, prepared to toe any
ono diapoaod to call on ua; and hereafter
whenever an aggrieved perten attempt* to
call ua to acoount in our van houee aucb
peraona will be met by the police. There
are no police, however, about our place of
buainoaa, and weaaaure all aucb an en
trance will be unobatructed, whatever the
es it may be."
Thiakiag thereby there might hang a
tale, I took tba paina to call upon Coloao)
Piatt at hia reel deuce, to learn lha mean
ing of the card. Krotu that vlait I laarned
a ftill explanation of lha card.
Den Piatt publiahao the only Independ
ent paper here, tbet la in any way iudapent
eat. Ilia criliciaiaa of people are in gen
eial very aharp, and it ia a wender he haa
Uua far eacaped with a whole akuli.
Upon the occaeion of tha death of Mra.
Grant a father, Oolonol Piatt took occaeion
to compliment her very highly upon her
devotion to her father, and her loving care
for him in hia laal day*
Last Sunday a Capital contained an ar
ticle criuaiaing the President's wife very
severely for taking part in the New Year*a
recepuen, a aha anly received during the
praaance of tha cabinet officers and than
retired. PutU allgmalixed thia diarepect
of bar father'i memory by epenly wing
liag ia n public reception only n week af
ter hia death, aa indecent. 11# aaid that
twoyaartago no Naw Year a reception
waa held out of reaped fer the death of
Mra. Belknap. If preper reaped waa
akown upon the death of the wife of a
cabinet official, bow much more proper
waa tuna auch token of ret pec t when the
deceased waa tha near relative of the
Presidents own family. Tha article waa
quit* aharp, but in no way could anything
bo found in it that could ha regarded aa ae
attack upon Mra. Grant's character.
Upon the following Monday night two
■ton arrjied with pluba and evidently un
der tho influence of liquor, called at Pi;
atl't bouaeand rang the balL
A colored boy earn# to the door.
The eel lera naked if Colonel Piatt waa
in.
Tbs boy retired t# ***, and told Ban
ning, member of Ohio and brother-in-law
of Piatt's, that there were two men in the
hall asking ter Piatt who refuted to give
their names. "But, 1 ' said tha boy, "one
of them ie Fred Grant; 1 know bim,"
Banning went out and asked the calleri
what they wanted.
They replied, in gruff lone*, with a firm
er grip upon their piuba, Col. Piatt.

THESTRIKEON THE NEW JKR.SKY
CENTRA L.
Whitings, N. J., January 13.-The en*
gineers o( the New Jersey Southern rail*'
road, by preconcerted arraingement ami
at the instigalian of all the other employ
ees of the company, last night, after tak
ing their several trains to their destination,
ran tboir engines to the headquarters of
the motive power ef the road at Manches
ter and there disconnected them, which ac
tion has completely closed up the business
of the road and of all other roads depen
ding upon them for connections. The
cauve of the strike is the failure of the com
pany to pay the men the wages which they
owe them. The track has been torn up
in sevetal places to prevent trains of other
roads from running on the New Jersey
Southern company's track.
THE SITUATION AT MADRID.
Madrid, January 13.—The intransigent#
insurrection coelinue* at Barcelona, and
there has been considerable fighting in the
suburbs. The governer of Madrid has ar
rested all the officers of the Saladero pris
on because of the escape from that iastitu
tioa ef an assassin whe was to have bean
executed te-day.
The captain general has issued an order
to the republican volunteers of Madrid di
recting them to surrender their arms to
day. All who disobey will bo tried by
court martial.
The authorities will search the city for
concealed arms la-morrow.
Mode of Electing the President
The senate committee on privileges
and elections yqpterday met and con
sidered Senator Morton's proposed
constitutional amendment to provide
a better mode of electing the Presi-,
dent, without reaching a formal coo
cioaion. The following propositions
were considered :
jt First. To abolish the electoral col
&
Second. The President and vice!
president to be voted for directly bj
the people.
Third. Each slate to be divided
into aa many districts as it has repres
entatives, and the caudidate having
the highest vote for President in a
distrct, to receive the vote of that
district, which shall count one presi
dential vote; each stale to be also en •
titled to two presidential votes at
large which shall be counted for the
candidate having the highest number
of votes in the whole state.
Fourth. The person having the
highest ntiiqbcr of si)ch presidential
votes in the United States shall be
President. [This will allow a Presi
dent to be elected by a plurality
vote.l
Fifth. These provisions to be
applicable to the election of vice
president.
Sixth. Congress shaU haye ROjrpr
to provide tor holding an J conduct
ing presidential elections and to
establish tribunals for decisions ofj
contested elections in diptripts or
states and make regulations fQ
govern these tribunals.

THE PROPOSED PUBLICATION
OF THE REBEL ARCHIVES.
It haa been suggested that tha en>
tire rebel archives, including thoae
captured and purchased, be printed
for the general uee of the public.
Everj member of coogrea* has taken
steps to that end, and it is likely that
the matter will lie brought before con
gress.
It iaaaiJ that with these archives
are letter* from many men now stand
ing high in both the republican and
democratic parties <juite as disloyal as
those written by Bright and Cushing,
It is not regarded as fair or just to
sift out letters now and than to be
used disastrously to the fortunes of a
few when it may suit partisan pur
poses.
TIIK CHIEF JUSTICESHIP. L
fi
The gossip and speculation over the
(bird nomination for the Chief-Jua- r
tireship of course continues. Senator A
Conkling is considered as entirely out j
of the question, and the drift of opiu-,
ion now centres upon M. R. Waite, of ?
Ohio, who has been frequently men- (
tioned since the withdrawal of Mr,
Cushiog. The President intimated to
Seustors that a nominee had bean
selected, and as soon as his acceptance *
was received the name would be sent
to the Senate. Mr. Waite is a lead- r '
ing member of the Toledo bar, has j
never held a judicial position, was c
one of the counsel of the United *
States before the (leneva arbitration, ,
and is now the President of the Ohio
Constitutional Convention. *
MONSTROSITY *EX TRAORDINABY
A Boy that Eats Raw Meat and
Drinks Warm 8100d —An Exhi-j
bition of his Capacity.
There is confined in the jail at Jackson,
Mich., a boy aged about 15 years, whe ex
hibits a wonderful and unnatural appetite.
A correspondent of the New-York Tri- t
bune, who availed himself of an opporlu- '
any to witness an exhibition of the boy's |
capacity, writes: The feat, disgusting {
enough 1 assure you, was nothing less
than the eating of a chicken, raw. 1
a crowd assembled in the jail barn to see
the sight which was literally performed, j
A live chicken and u knits wore placed in
the boy's bands, when tha revolting op
eration commenced. The chicken was
laid mi tha floor and held down between
the boy's kneos, while he sawed the head
off with the knife. The boy then placed I
the bleeding neck in his mouth and delib
erately sucked the warm blood from the
body. Ha then began tearing the skin ,
from the body, wbiih proved quite a diffi- I
cult task, and serve! as a sort of pastime, '
chewing pieces of lb e skin which bad been 1
partly denuded of the feetbers. Then be
ginning with one leg, the disgusting lunch .
was begun. I say lunch, for it was three |
, o'clock in the afternoon, and the boy had
already eatan three men's rations for his
dinner. After finishing legs, he stepped
long enough to remove the entrails, wban
ba proceeded to finish the chicken. The
fact of bis eating tha chicken in this way,
was no more surprising than his manner
( during the performance. He stood in the
middle of ths floor, apparently regardless
of the lookers on, or of their Jokes, bis
whole attention seemingly engaged in
I what ho was doing and his inhuman meal
t was also eaten with evident relish. One
could think of nothing to liken him to
more fitting than a dog gnawing his bone,
the glare ol tho eye as he occasionally
glanced st one molt forcibly suggesting
B the similarity. Tho capacity of this boy's
B stomach is prodigious He is regularly
fed an allowance sufficient for three men
r at aaoh nioul. He dispatched at uqq iqeal
r only twc.ity-sqven good sijod potatoes,
0 besides meat and bread in proportion.
' For dinner on the day previous he ate
r three quarts of soup, and followed that up
A with one pound of raw steak and one and
(t half pounds of fnutton. (to will
take a place of bread five or tit Inches)
. long, with a thick cruiton, and begin at
j one eud to eat R. and never take R away
. froui hie mouth till he hai (wallowed it
r all.
Of eggt he will eat any quantity, prefer-
I Ing them raw, ehelle and all. lie will take
I (hem in hie mouth, chew them up and
, eplt the ehelle out after (wallowing the
content!
