Mr. Kd. Messinger, of Joliet, 111.,
writes us. March IS • The weather is still
winter like ; sleighing mostly all gone !
bad very good sleighiag this w inter. The
PennsvnUey folks out here are al. we !;
the scariat fever is raging among the chil
dren. Mr-Miles Miller s child was bur

cr, formerly of the Loop, are traveling
through the sooth. On the 11 we had very
high water. Tlie Joliet f. lks think the

Let the floods tense, let the ice
gorge, let the bridges be torn away, yet
none of these calamities would effect the
people mi general so much as if Sechlcr A
Co., in the Bush house block would quit
selling their excellent groceries at their
accustomed low prices.
Now isthetime when people think
of their gardens and about getting garden
seeds, ind no good housekeeper will get
any but the choicest and freshest. Brigg

A small slock of store goeds, which
Mr. Tfconua Allen of BoaLburg had stor

by fire, on last Friday. The room was al
so much damaged. Insured in the Penns
valley company.
The meeting of the directors of the
L C. i T, RR , which was to have been
held last Tuesday, was postponed in conse
quence of the absense of Mr. Scott, hence
there was no letting of the railroad work.
This causes another delay —whether fur a
month or longer we do not know. This
it aggravating after all the delays wo hive
had, and if there were any use in scolding
those railroad dignitaries for the little in
terest they manifest in our road, and the
delays they have permitted in the work we
weuld try it on them with a will.

CHILD DEOWJM-P.—On last Monday
evening Molly Thotnt*on, daughter of
John and Mary Thomson, of Spruce
town, aged about 0 year*, was drowned in
attempting to cros* a foot log over Laurel
run. The child wai not found till next
day, when the water had carried it nearly
a half a mile down the stream.
ASADSCICUO: —On Saturday morning
last, says the Lewi*town Democrat, of Z~i
ult, Lieut. Hiram SlcClenahen, residing
on James H. Brown's farm near Z'gler
vitle, took bia own life by shooting himself
with a navy revolver. The ball entered
the top of his forehead, and parsed down
ward, causing almost instant death. The
act wo* committed in a dark, back entry of
the barn, soon after breakfast. He wa*
found before life was quite extinct by a
brother-in-'.aw, who entered the barn tu
a'.tt nd to some work. Mr. McC. was about
42 years of age, and stood very high
amongst his neighbors as an industrious,
upright man. During the late war be was
a member of the Pennsylvania Bucktai!
regiment, and afterward of the let Penna.
Reserve Cavalry, in wbkh he became
Lieutenant of Company C. Deceased left
a wife ur.d five childten to mourn thi* sad
event
He had been collector of county and
school taxes for 1874, and on account of
hard timet and other misfortunes had be
come pecuniarily embnrrnssed, wbich fuel
preyed heavily upon his mind. His friends
for weeks past observed a serious change
in bis health and demeanor, and mucb
concern was felt in conscquenco, although
the act of self-destruction was scarcely ap
prehended. There is no doubt, however,
the deed was committed under mental
aberration.

I terday afternoon. This city being tllua-
I ted in a bain, was protected by the tur
rounding hill* from the lury of the tlorm.
I The rainfall was accompanied by hail
unprecidcntedly heavy. Several town* In]
the interior suffered severely in the lott of j
life and property. Near Tnomton, John,

struck a (rain of cars, demolishing It coin,
p'eloly, and killing I'ein Gosling instant

All the trams coming to Augusta except
the Centiwl were delayed, but no serious
damage wa done to the railroads. There
wat no le--of life or damage to property
in Augusta.
Th latest tiews front Camaek ay Mr*.

ports from the country are confuted and
1 unsatisfactory, but there seeiu* to be no
doubt that tha sterm was fearfully de
structive. surpassing in extent and vio
lence anything of the kind in this section
for year*.
The tornado caused tearful destruction
along its track, demolishing heuses, trees,
and fences, and killing poraons and stock.
Baptists were holdings meeting at Klui
Church, uear Camaek, when the storm
demolished it, killing three and wounding
twenty-five persons. Residences and out
houses were demolished on inany planta
tions in War, n, McDutHe, and Columbia
counties in Georgia, the destruction ex
tending into K<lg< flld, Aiken, and llarn
well cunt *in South'CaroUaa. In some
places persons were blown a di>Utue of
sixty yards
Kverv house on Mrs. P. J. Walton's]
plantation, including a line residence, was
destroyed. In Columbia county three ne-,
groes were killed and twenty-five wound
ed. Teu houses on Dr. Hamilton's place
were destroyed.
It is imposibio to give a correct idea of
the amount of property destroyed. It will
reach several hundred thousand dollars.
Ftarfdl suffering is already reported in the
devastated territory. The storm was the
severest ever known in this seotien, and
the universal destruction unparalleled.

TIIF. TORNADO IN GEORGIA
Distress in the Devastated District —
Terrible Lose of life and Properly
Augusta, Ga , March 28.—The path of
the tornado on Saturday las', was from "200
to 000 yards wide. Tbo cyclone was cy
lindrical In shape, and rotated with fear
fu \eloctty from north to south, Tbe
front cloud was as black as night and half
a mile high and the rear was illuminated
by a bright light. It travelled nearly due
east, veering a little to the north. After
the devastation at Capiak the tornado
seems to have divided, one portion going
east by north and crossing the Savannah
River above, and the other below Augusta
both proving equally destructive laying
wiiste everything in their track. Huge
trees were broken like reeds and in some
instances carried three-quarters ot a tnile,
The tornado was preceded by a dull, heavy
roaring, as of heavy artillery in the dis
tance. I: spent its greatest fury in about
three minutes. An eye-witness says the
sense- were utterly doadened and appall
ed. There was a crash, a roar and the
mingling of a hundred terrific and unearth
ly sounds. Houses were demolished, and
noble oaks that had withstood the storms
of a century were snapped in twain, A
wail of distress comes up from the devas
tated district, embraceing eight counties
in Georgia and two or three in South Car
olina. The destruction of property is im
mense, and the list of killed and wounded
appalling.
THE MILITARY AFTER THE GOLD
Omaha. March 24.—Information bat
been telegraphed General Ord of teveral
partiei of rnineri leaving different points
for the Black Hill*. In reply to a tele-j
gram irom one of the miner*, who recent
ly came out of the Hilla, whether he would
be permitted to return with reinforcement
and provision*, General Ord say*: Troop*
from Fort Laramie and hostile Indians
have both gone lor your miner*. For
their take*, I hope the troops will reuch
them first, a* military order* aru simply to
bring in the party, confine leader*, bum

General Ord ha* been authorized to put
all his cavaly at once into the Sioux coun

and to employ fifty Indian scout* toadvi.e

order* are removal of the parties, arrest
and confine leader* at the nearest military
post, burn the wagons, and destroy tho
outfit*.
THE RIVER
The Lock Haven Republican says: The
river at this point is still unbroktn, the
long-looked for freshet being as yet in the
futuie. The ice is as solid as in mil-win
ter, and teams con pass over from one side
to tho other as readily as they did two
months ago. The immense bedy of it a
cannot be moved from its pre eut station!
unles there bo rain, as it would be impot
tibia for the small amount of water DwW (
in the river, to carry the ice over the dam
Should a gorge occur at this point the
water will be forced back over the flatsand
lower portions ot the city, and wo may look
for a repetition of the scenes of IM>j. Tin
gorge still continues between Milton ami
WaUontown, and tho low lun-l/ therea
bouts are covered to a consideable depth
Our "oldost inhabitants" hap naver scan
the river present such a formidable ap
pearance as it now does, and the talcs that
tell, are enough to I arrow up tho souls ol
of the most horeful. At the pre-antjvrit
ing we can, of course, make no approach
as to when our freshet will come, hut the
whole shall be laid before our readers us
soon as practicable.
From the the dam at Williamsport up a
distance o( ten'.miles. tho river is frdken
in one solid mass to a depth oflweniy lour
inches. A committee of the City Council,
in connection with tho Lumberman's
Exchange, gro taking measures tending to
the safety of the city.

THE SKA.
Tito ProccMM CotifUntlr Uoing On
In ihcOcono—Prof. Iluxloy'a Last
r Lecture.
Purf. Huxley lectured, Fob. 22, in tbe
• Feresters' ball, In liondoa, 110 dwelt
primarily upon wliat bo boliovrd to be the
. importation of physical science n a brunch
I not only of the higher, but alto of tho ele
i mcntary education at the country, urging
that while it wa true thnl the ttudf of the
i higher brauchet of natural tcienco rcqulr
find for it* pursuit a certain maturity of in
, lelleol and advanced knowledge, there was
| nothing unfeasible in imparting to chil
dten tome of itt more elementary princi
ples. He then launched into an est in
teresting discourse on "The Sea," limiting
Ills attention in accordance with hit addi
tionally expressed ed>ign,[to the dlstribu
lion within It of apparently Inslgnifi
caul and practically Invisible creatures
with which he said the ocean teamed to
such an extent us to convert it into a kind
of "living soup "
These minute organisms lie described as
covering a vast portion of the surface,
whence as they died they tank tlowly tot
the bottom, bearing with them their tiny J
shells or skeletons, which toon became all'
that was left to tell of their existence. l'h<
recent investigations of Iter mujosty s ship
Challenger had cast much light upon tin
history of these creatures, the wing that
within certain rones -between about fifty
five degrees north and fifty-five degrees
south latitude the organisms thus being
constantly precipitated to the bottom ef the
ocean consisted almost entirely of calcare
ous lorauuiul'erous bodies, while those in j
the northern and southern regions beyond
had been shown to bo exclusively
the silicicus shells of tt e vegetable
diaumaceae. From the accumulation
through countless ages of these myriads ol
ihell.it was not difficult to realign that
they were gradually, by their agglomera
lion, produeicg deposit* of hard, solid mat
ter, to that the Polar region* were becom
ig gradually enveloped in a stratum of
lilicioutor flinty rock, forming a kind of
cap on the bottom of the tea over each end
of the globe. So in the more equatorial
portions ot the sea the bottom wa found to
consist of carbonate <•! lime or chalk,
formed in a like manner, but from the cal
careous forauiiuifeine and the chalk i lls',
which lined our coast* had been shown
front microscopical research to bo nothing
other lliau the deep toa depo.it of an au
cieut world, modified from it* original
form by the genual agency ol water and
the solvent action of the carbonic acid of
the atmosphere, llence the*e liny creat
ures, insignificant as they might appear,
were the means of producing enormous
trai.(formations throughout the surface of
the earth. Many ot the results obtained
from tha Challenger and other autpori
menu and obserealion. were then cited
more minutely in support of the idea that
there tjiatomaceous and foramtciferoqs de
posiu were capable of undergoing by va
rious natural procos.r such transforma
tion* as to cause tha disappearance of
their originally organised structure; and
thus much light might he thrown, said the
lecturer, on the problems presented by
geological formations.
The older geologist* had inferred from
ibe abtcine of rc gnaable orgai n - in.
some of the earlier formations that no lite
existed in those agss, and it was impossi
ble to say, with certainty, whether or not
such was the case, but the whole evidence
of the paleontology went to prove that tha
earliest forms of life must Lave bten vast
ly simpler than the fossils met with in the
earlier strata. From recent researches,
however, it had at last been found con
sistent to reconcile the theories of both
biologists and geologists on the.e matters,
and the first glearn of this reconcilement
they owed to one aha hd only that very
morning passed away from their midst;
one who would be remembered in history
a* the greatest geologist of his day—his old
friend and master, Sir Charles Lyell.
That great philosopher had, in his Princi
ples of Otology, given in a charming form
bis interpretation of these phenomena,
showing the subjection of these early rock*
to the action of beat, with the consequent
possibility of the modification of the form
of tbeir original constituents.
Sir Charles Lyell was a geologist of fifty
years ago, and fitly years ago the tueta
morphic actions of water had bean but lit
tle studied i and no one entertained the
idea that clay could by any possibility be
the result of vital action. The lecturer
then spoke in touching term* of a recent
visit which he had paid to the great man,
whoso memory he benured, w hen ho had
discussed with hint the resulU of the Chal
lenger expedition, and had iistcnad to hi.
feeble voice and trembling lips, which had
scarcely strength to communicate to him
the thoughu passing within bit truly great
mind. After a few cloaing remarks on the
advantageous application of the study of
natural phenomena to the exercise and de
velopmcnt of the faculties of reason and
observation, even in the very young.
Professor Huxley sat down amid prolong
ed applause, having been listened to with
marked attention.

Danger.
Lock Haven, Pa., March 'A—lntelli
gence hu been received here thi* evening
that the great gorge at Glen Union, thir
teen miles above here has commenced to
move, and the weal of tho Susquobanmi
overflowed the surrounding country.
The greatest anxiety exists among res
ident* along the river bank, and thsy are
already pre;>aring lo remove their effect*
to a place of aecurity. The Fallon Home,
owned by Mayor W. J. Smith, one of the
handsomest and most costly itructurea of
the kind in this ection of the State is
threatened by the impending flood a* it
extend* nearly to the water 1 * edge. The
proprietor* commenced to move their
properly front the lower stories to tho up
per thi* afternoon.
The furlou* mountain streams and gen
eral thaw up the river has increased the
volume of water o greatly that the Su*
quehanna ha* overflowed number* of val
uable farm*. The loss i* very heavy
Backwater ha* nl*o forced up current* of
Fishing and other creek*, and *mall bridg
es have been destroyed. It i* also current
!y reported that three lives have been lost,
and it is feared the los* of life may *till bo
greater. Front information that can be
secured, it i* probable the inundation will
resell thi* city Into to night or to-morrow
morning. It i* probable the deluge will
lie aecclcated by the rain storm, and the
lower part of the crty bo desolated.

TIIK MUCH \NISM <>F MAN
Wonder* at borne by familiarity cease
to excite astonishment , but hence it hap
pen* that many know but little about the
"bouse w# live In"—the human body. We
bot upon the bourn from the outside. Jut;
a* a whole or unit, never thinking of the
many rooms, the curious pasiages, and the
ingenious internal arrangements of the,
house, er of the wonderful structure of the]
man, the harmony and adaptation of all
hi* part*.
In the human skeleton, about the liiue
of maturity, are Jfei hours- The muscles
am ghoul |*PO in number. The length of
the alimentary canal is about thirty-two
feet. The amount of blajd in un adult
averages thirty pounds, or toll one fifth of
the entire weight.
The heart is six inches in length and
four in diameter, and boats seventy times
per minute ; 4,200 times per hour ; 100,800
p! Ul i W,773,200 time* per year; 2,666,-
440,00 ft In three score and ten ; and at eich
boat, two and a halt ounces of blood are
11 thrown out of It; one hundred and seven-
I ty five ounces per minute; six hundred
and fifty sis poui.ds per hour ; seven and
~ three fourths tons per day. All the blood
t in the bodv passes through the heart in
„ three minutes.
i Tlie lungs will contain about one gallon
. of air, at their usual degree of Inflation. I
iWe breathe,on an average, 1,200 limes per j
. hour; inhale as* gallons of air, or "4.000.
gallons per day. The aggregate surface j
ol the air cells of tho lungs exceeds JO.OOU
, square inches, an area Vry nearly equal to
. the floor of a room twelve feel square.
The average weight of the brain of an j
adult male Is three pounds and eight oun-l
ces ; of u female, two pounds and lour;
ounces The nerves are all connected with I
jit, directly by the spinal marrow Theaej,
nerves together with their branches and|
'minute ramifications, probably exceed
10000,000 in number, forming a ' body
guard' out-numbering by far the greatest J
| army ever marshaled t ji
The skin it composed of three layers, and .
v aries from one fourth to oue eighth of ai (

adult is estimated to be ",UUO square inches, j.
| The atmospheric pressure being about | (

Elicit iquare inch of *lllll contain* S.uOO
• wealing tube*, or perepiratory pure*, each
of which may bo likened to a little J rati i
tile oue<fourlh of an inch long, making an
aggregate length of the entire turface nj

body almoat forty mile* long.
Man i made marvellously Who i* ea
ger to investigate the ouriout, to witneea
U.C wonderful work* of Omnipotent Wit
iloin, lei him nut wander the wide world
round to teak theiu, but examine hinitelt.
"The proper tludv of mankind i man
RKMllik' IV nPltATt,'
jj.kiuaik i by nu mean* is tiuuiied,
uol eveu a ready or natural, orator.
Tito knightly appearance of the
t'riuce, hu ease of tuauuer, and,
above all, hia reputation as diploma
list and statesman, would lead u* to
( suppose him an orator—either oue
who would deliver a profound and
welUarrauged speech without hesita
tion or cifort, or, still more, an orator
of natural eloquence, whose w< rdsaud
figures would flow from his lips as the
creatious of the muuient, and entrance
or enkmdle the hearts of his hearers
Hut this is not the case. Occasionally
he may be seea at his desk winging
his way rapidly with his <|uill over a
narrow strip of pupcr, while some,
member is on the platform. All
know what this means, and at a
slight bow of his head the President j
announcer that l'riuce Biamark, Chan
cellor of the Empire, lus the door, i
As he rises there is a general demand I
for sileuee all over the House with,
the exclamation, 'Ule is speaking !"]
He inclines his b-rdv toward the As
sembly, winds his thumbs around'
each other, aud casts an occasional
glance at the House i but he slops,
hesitates, sometimes cvcu stammers,
aud corrects himself; he seems to
struggle wish his words, which as
ceiiu unwillingly to his lips ; after!
two or three there will be a short
pause, when one can almost hear a
suppressed swallow. He speaks with
out gestuie, feeling, or emphasis, ami
often fails in the ncoentuation of fiuai'
syllables, so as to weaken Ins thought
One wonders if this is the man with a
parliamentary career behind him ol
more than a quarter of a century, du
ring which period he has been tu ev
ery legislative bidjr of his country,
meeting with bitlret opposition from
the J,ibtr.il party iu bif tarly carter,'
parrying their most caustic words iu
kind, replying, with wotidcrful pres
ence of mind, by the wittiest nn
proinptues or the uiostcullingsircasm.
It is the same man, aud prtacotly he
wrill prove it. Gradually his speech
Hows with more warmth, and unfold*
its peculier attraction ;a series oforjg
iuai, fresh, gritty, and significant ex
pressions, which tell more by their
power than their beauty. His speech
es are collections of sentences rather
lhau the development of a smooth and
logical traiu of reasoning. Many 01,
them have gouu iulo hutory as pro
verbial, such as "Cataliue existances,"
"Blood aud iron," "Austria must
move its center of gravity toward the
Orient," etc. Some months ago, after
listening to loug diatribes about the
evils of the receut wars, and the bur
dens which they have brought upon
the people as a nation, ho quietly
arose and said : "After each one of
the recent wars the nation has enjoyed
a greater amount of parliamentary
liberty than before them." This was
so strikingly true that it was folly to
argue that they had led to tyranny.
And he closed b\ saying ; "But nev
ertheless, gentlemen, the German na
tion has a right to expect from us that
we shall prevent the return of such
a catastrophe, aud 1 am conviuced
that the allied governments desire
nothing so much as to effect this purr
pose." With this beautiful adiuouu
tioo, simple though dignified, and ex
pressed with feavor, ho electrified the
audience as if he were the greatest
orator, and then sat down amid tloaf
euiug applause from all parts of the
House. Thus, with apparently no
1 oratorical power, he seldom takes the
floor without confirming his nation in
the belief that, take him all in all, he
is a statesman such as Germany has
never before enrolled in the annals,
aud whom the world at large may
• well envy her iu possessing.— Prof.
