TITE STORM.—The severe rain storm of
Monday evening •of last week proved
quite destructive along the Marsh Run.
It is said that stream was never before
known to be so much swollen. Fences a
long its course were swept away and ma
ny corn fields much damaged. ^ The force
of the water was so great that in some in
stances gullies six feet in depth were o
pened in corn fields and even piles of
stones carried from one field into anoth

Ilachtel farm, in Washington county, sus
tained a loss amounting to about $2,000.

and ordered breakfast. While Mrs. Mat

dertook to ravish her, She resisted, anti
her clothing and person showed unmis
takable signs of a terrible struggle for
life.
When .her husband returned at night
he found her body in the cellar with - her
throat cut and skull crashed. Great ex
citement prevails in the neighborhood,
and mounted horsemen are scouring the
country in search of the murderer. A
reward of $l,OOO has been offered for his

Helmbold's failure was due to great van
ity.

had only been three years in trade in New
York, and during that time had made his

chances, determined to outdo Stewart, and
and consequently advanced $40,000 to his
party. Forty thousand dollars is a large
sum of money. It has generally been
considered a capital sufficient for many
kinds of business. That any man should
deliberately throw such a sum away can
only be explained by the proud desire to
outrival Stewart. Helmbold, it is true,
expected to make money rapidly but pride
was continually in the way of endurinr ,
success. Having outbid Stewart in the
politica fund, he determined to distance
the Belmonts and Commodore Vanderbilt
in equestrian style, and hence his equip
age at Long Branch was the grandest ev
er seen .there, with the single exception of
that displayed by Jim Fisk. There was
an incessant rivalry between this brace of
fools ; but in the long run Fisk came out
ahead, which might have been expected
from his unbridled ambition and vast re
sources. Hembold changed his team eve
ry day in the week, but still Fisk excell
ed him. They have both reaped the re
ward of their folly—the one lying in a
dishonored grave, while the other is a
wanderer in a foreign land.
