plttoo was visited between ten and
one o'clock on Thursday last, by a violent
hail and rain storm. Hail stones the siZe of
liazlemut were quite plenty. About noon
the " run," as it is generally called, which
passes through Horn street near the Suite
bitch and 1:11ne tanneries and empties into
the canal below llopkins' corner, suddenly
swelled up so high as hi completely inun
date the IMst story or the old Kline resi
de:me, and :Lout a dozen more, compelling
the inmates to boat a hasty retreat.
A t;erman family residing in a small
house immediately opposite the Kline
tannery had to he taken from the gar
ret NVindoW, into n skitr, so sudden was
the rise. A number of families were com
pelled to remove their household anode
front the first story. The water on its :ingry
course down I lorn street. tore away the ile
queduct oil the pike, Washed away' a pardon
of a frame house near the brewery,

lected to the% canal. here street—trout
SeCOlitt to trout—is litcrully "burn-up" a
couple of feet deep, depositing cinder,
gravel and sand all along the low places.
The bridges at the tanneries, in the alley
and on Front street—foot and driving—are
all swept away. All the cellars along the
route of the "run" were tilled, and consid
°rabic damage done to tobacco stored in
one of them. Mt. Philip M. Kline sus
tained considerable damage to his tannerv.
The borough authorities will be at consid
erable espouse to repair Horn street, the
aqueduct, the alley :111(1 the several bridges
carried away. We learn that considerable
damage was done to Park, through
which the "run" passes.
COLL MIIIA AFFA Ilts.—We clip the fol
lowing from the Spy:
Accident.—Lilly Evans, live and a half
years , ; of age, daughter of Samuel Evans,
Esq. ,nr this place, whilst on her way to
school on Tuesday last, on sth street, fell
on the pavement and dislocated the elbow
and broke two of the bones in tier arm, an
inch below that joint. Drs. Hinkle and
Armor adjusted the fracture and disloca
tion, which operation was a most painful
and de,icate one. The little sufferer is now
without pain and seems to be improving.
1f rib Store..—On Thursday last, at 5 P.
M., this locality was visited by a most
terrinic storm of rain and hail, accompanied
by a high wind and some of the tallest
thunder and lightning that we have been
favored with tins year The hail stones
were about the sty, buck shot and came
down " right smart.," It is probable that
the fruit in some sections has been injured
by it, but we have heard of nu damage being
done as vet.
Since writing the above we learn that at
Marietta the storm was very severe, some
of the streets were covered with water to
the depth of several feet, and it is said that
Dully's park is injured to the amount of
several thousand dollars, his lish pond, &c.,
carried away.
THE I. 0. OF 0. F. PARADE AT New
HoLLAND.—On Thursday next the grand
parade of the Independent Order of Odd
Fellows at New Holland takes place. It
having been in contemplation ibrsome time
past, and from the extensive arrangements
being made, we may expect a large turn
out. Monterey and Lancaster Lodges of
our city are exerting themselves to the
utmost extent to be present in force, and we
can safely say that no other lodges will
make as imposing an appearance either in
numbers or dress as Nos. 242 and 67.
INDIAN ANTIQUITIES IN LANCASTER
COUNTY: We find in the Washington Con
stitutional Union an elaborate and learned
article from the pen of J. Franklin Reigart,
on the subject of the extraordinary inscrip
tions to be seen at what is known as the
" Indian Rock," in the Susquehanna river,
near the southern border of this county.
This rock is about eighty feet long and
forty in height, and its face contains a large
number of most remarkable and curiously
engraved figures, supposed to have been'cut
by the Indians at an early Clay. There are
several other smaller rocks in the immedi
ate neighborhood, which also contain simi
lar etchings, but on most of these they have
been much worn away by the waters dur
ing the prevalence of floods. Mr. Reigart
has had a cut made of the inscriptions and
figures, from casts taken in plaster by
Messrs. Stauffer and Kevinski, of this city.
The cut represents men, animals and other
figures, supposed to be capable of interpre
tation after the manner of Egyptian hiero
glyphics. It is a decided curiosity and has
been visited by many learned and curious
persons.
WISCONSIN CRAB APPLES.-MI. S. H.
Slaymaker, who is now residing at "Maple
Grove Farm," near Beloit, Rock county,
Wisconsin, and is at present on a visit to
his friends and relatives on this, his native
heath, dropped into our office yesterday
and left upon our table three fine crab
a pples, each five inches in circumference,
and these he says are small compared to
what Wisconsin can produce in the crab
apple line. But our specimens are quite
big enough to astonish the natives here
abouts, who are invited to call and examine
them.

THE lIANSG IrA I M 001ING OF THURSDAY ;
—The friends and members of this Asso
ciation net Thursday, at Wenger's woods,
011 the Now Holland pike, for the purpose
or celebrating the 150th Anniversary 01
Hans Graf's settling in this county. Ad
dresses were delivered by Eshleman,
Esq., Prof. J. P. Wickersham and Gover
nor Geary, in English, and J. D. Rupp, of
Philadelphia, in German.
The address or Air. Eshleman we hope to
lay before our readers. It was ud interest
ing historical sketch of the Mennonites of
Lancaster County, of whom llans Graf was
one of the earliest settlers. This association
of his descendants has been formed for the
purpose of tracing out the various members
of the I . :111111y, and preparing a family gene
alogical true. It has no connection with the
efforts which S0111(3 of its more credulous
and enthusiastic members are making with
the view of securing an imaginary fortune
which they believe to be deposited some
where in Germany to their credit.. Nor does
the association encourage them in their vis
ionary enterprise; it is simply a tinnily
association, and held its,oneeting yesterday
to celebrate an interesting event in the Unit'
family's history.
The meeting organized at 11 a. m., but
tire speaking did not commence till one o'-
clock. Meanwhile the huffily metnbers,
gathered from widely separated sections uf
the country, reported themselves to the ex
ecutive committee. We noticed persons
present from Philadelphia, Baltimore, Ohio,
Indiana, and trout many different counties
of our State, most of whom looked for the
first time upon the county where their an
cestors dwelt.
AVe oloservetl also upon the ground nearly
every Republican t;andiffitte for office, and
were somewhat surprised at this evidence
that the Graf Ilunily sought to monopolize
tlw roomy offices; but a friend whispered
to us that he thought they were not all
G niches, but that they were endeavoring to
engraft Lll.ll the minds Of the assemoled
people ( who might have votes under the
" Crawford" System) a due sense of their
virtues and capacity, and the eminent pro
priety which there would Ire in settling
them f),; the various Mikes they respect
ively r desired. 'Phis duty be so; at all events
we never saw a more cordial and friendly
set of fellows; they seemed to know every
body and had a hand-shake for all. We say
to them vietis, and may the best man
win!
After spending a pleasant afternoon, a
rain storm Caine up about 5 o'clock, drown
ing out Prof. Wickersham, who was the
last speaker, and the assembly dispersed,
The New Holland brass band furnished
music during the day.
A connEsroNnENT Of the Oxford Press
ws•riting from Fulton top., this county,
under date Of Sept. Ltd, refers to the singular
death of cattle belonging to Martin Rohrer.
the landlord of the Penn hotel, in that
township. Ile says up to the date of this
tter three valuable cows and one of his
tine oxen have died. Whether they died
from disease or from the effects of poison, is
a question yet to he determined. When we
take into consideration the prominent
symptoms, which were precisely similar in
all the four eases; the extensive amount. of
inflammation of the villus and muscular
costs of the stomach, revealed upon exam
illation, and the fact of a neighbor's cattle
in an adjoining field remaining healthy and
undisturbed, the presumption is strong
that they died from the effects of poison.
The pie nic gotten up by the young folks
of Fulton, took place as announced In your
. journal, on the with inst. quite a delega
tion of the " gay and' happy" from Rising
Sun and Oxford were present, and remained
until the dancing was adjourned sine die, by
the rain storm of the evening.
Within the last two weeks the farmers of
our vicinity have succeeded, between the
rain showers, m turning down considerable
soil, :111t1 in the course of a few days will be
ready for seeding. For several years the
universal complaint in this region has been
hard soil and difficult plowing. Not so this
season.

nommay.—The residence of William
Wilson, bricklayer, on German street, was
entered by some unknown person or per

mahogany box containing $4O, ten of which
was in silver, also two pair of gold spec
tacles, two gold pens, several gold linger
rings, shirt studs, two gold ,pencils and
several other minor articles which were
kept as keepsakes by the family. The

with the house and where Mr. W. kept his
valuables, as nothing else was disturbed.

good wholesome food, which, by these medicines will
be digested properly, anal good healthy blood made;
thus building up the coustlintion. Schenck's Man
drake Pills cleanse the stomach of all bilious or mu-
Cools MCCUIMUIaiLMS ; and, by using the Sea Weed
Tome in coulleetitl, the appetite Ls restored.
SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP is nutritious as
well as medicinal, and, by using the three remedies,
ell impurities are expelled from thesystern, and good,
whole,utue blood made, which will repel all disease.
I fp:die:Lis will take these medicines according to di
rections, Consumption very frequently lit it-slat stage

ta follow that because the bowels are nut costive they

C4l - Among tile ninny restoratives which
nature has supplied to relieve the afflictions
of humanity, there is uo more favorite one for
a certain class of diseases than the "Medicinal
Gum" of the Wild Cheri) , free; but however
valuable_ it is its power to heal, to soothe, to
relieve and to cure, is enhanced tenfold by
scientific andjudicious combination with other
lugredients, lu themselves of equal worth.—
This happy mingling exists to a remarkabl e

whose value in curing Coughs,:lCohtv, Bron

inestimable.
Strong Testimony.
From BENJAMIN WHEELER, EsQ., Depot Mae
to at South itoyalston, :Muss.
"In the spring of IdM I was most severely
afflicted with a nerd, dry cough, with its usual
accompaniments of night sweats, completely
prostrating my nervous system, and produc
ing such a debilitated state of health that,
after trying medical aid to no purpose, I had
given up all hopes of ever recovering, as had
aiso my friends. At this stage of matters I
was prevailed upon through the influence of a
neighbor to try Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cher
ry, and, before using two bottles, the effect was
almost magical. My cough entirely left me,
the night sweats deserted me, hope once more
elated my dopre,sed spirits, and soon I had
attained my woutedstrength and vigor. Thus
has this Balsam, as has often been remarked
by persons conversant with the above facts,
literally:snatclaed me from the ytwning grave;
You a, e atlliberty to use Lillis for the benefit of
the afflicted."
