Not long after President Hares went into office tbe country fell into a misunderstanding, or misinterpre tation of his views as to the part that office holders shall take in elec tions, and as to what they shall con tribute. The expressions of the Pres ident were cosstraed to mean that no office holder should be allowed to contribute to the payment of lawful expenses in conducting a campaign. President Hayes was entirely misun derstood, he simply meant that no office holder should be forced into electioneering, and the payment of funds for lawful campaign purposes, and that if an officer would not work in a campaign or pay for campaign ing, he should not be removed be cause of such failure, provided that otherwise he filled the position faith fully. On this question, an interview between President Hayes and Gener al Campbell, the Pennsylvania mem ber of the National Republican Con gressional Committee, puts the Pres ident before the country in a way not to be misunderstood. The inter t.Iucp a few davs atfo. Af ter listening patiently to what Gen eral CamiAiell had to say relutive to the approaching campaign, the Pres ident remarked that "he felt keenly sensible of the importance of the present year's elections, and hoped that in their results they would meet the hopes and expectations of him- elf and all other Republicans. Find- in" this an excellent opportunity. General Campbell interjected, "Being sinceiely interested in the success of the Republican party, might I ask from whence are we to draw the si news of war ? Your orders to the of fibers of the Government prelude revenues from that source. We con sider that those who fill the oflieeR and realize some pecuniary returns from the ascendancy of the party, bhould at least bear a portion of the burdens pecuniarily if not personal, of the contest." The President said : -IWiscly, we agree there. The on ly difference hitherto has been one of methods. The executive order allud ed to was designed to let faithful of ficers understand that their first al legiance was to the Government and . . . i i i - i its interests ana noi io piuonuu persons. I lelieve this is now very generally understood, but so far as contributing a reasonable lmre out of their incomes to meet expenses of the campaign, there can be no rea sonable objection to that but it can. not I demanded under threat of re moval as hitherto. An officer can give or not, as he pleases, without af fecting his tenure of office for or against bun. I expect to contribute my proportion to the campaign ex penses, and there will be no objec tion to others in office doing like wise ; in fact I should be pleased if they were to do so." The President added. "And as to the participation of officials in the campaign, there can be and will be no objection to this, unless they are being used to further the interests of certain individuals who, by party ma chinery and their hold on its niani pulations. overrule the wishes of the people and subject Republicans to the alternative of voting for obnox ious candidates or submitting to par ty defeat The order applying to officers of the Government in this sense will be rigorously enforced, but after the candidates are fairly in the field, without the aid of conventions packed with office holders acting at the beck of dominant cliqne of poli ticians, there will be no objection to officers doing their share, so long as it does not interfere with their offi cial duties, in the field work of the campaign, tbe same as any other cit izen." General Campbell stated to night that he now felt quite easy in mind. lx)tb as to funds and services : that the President appreciated tbe situation thoroughly, and without coming in conflict with his position as to the relations between officials sit i politics would give the campaign his moral and individual support General Campbell thinks that the President has been much misunder stood and now sees no reason what ever to le dissatisfied with his course He thinks the Republicans of all ways of thinking should now aban d m their attacks upon the President and turn them upon the Democrats, where they will do more good." The swallow-tail brand of the State' Dtimjcracv are in the Jtatl A High Time in Congress. Ttiesday a week was a high day in Congress aver the river and harbor bilL Southern men have been asiing appropriations amounting to large sums of money. The question was a lively one all the way through from the beginning finally Congressmen White and Wright, of Pennsylvania, became involved in it and created a most lively and ludicrous debate as may be learned from it as it is repro duced in these columns. The Pennsylvania Wright and White, were drawn into the debate by Congressman Ellis, of Louisiana, charging th4 large appropriations were asked: for streams in Pennsyl vania,- that charge brought White, of Pehcsylvania, to his feet, he broke into the discussion, and he "spoke of the importance of the Kiskiminitas river, penetrating, as it did, the oil regions of the country ; so to the Conemaugh river, also mentioned in the bill. Mr. WrJglt, Of Pennsylvania, asr, ed his colleague to state wliat that trout stream Kiskiminitas was, and also where the Conemaugh (if that was the name) was. Laughter. ifr. While The gentleman aspires to be a candidate for the Chief Ex ecutive office of Pennsylvania, but, if he does not know the geography of his Slate better than that, he ought not to aspire to such a high position. Laughter and uproar. Mr. Wright If I have to support appropriations for the navigation of trout streams 1 do not want to be Governor of Pennsylvania. Ap plause. Mr. White The people of Penn sylvania may agree with you in that respect Laughter. Will my col league say, before the House and the country, that he does not know the location of the Kiskiminitas and Cone tnaugh rivers, in PenEsjlvania ? Mr. Wright They are new names to me : I never heard of them before Loud laughter and great confusion and disorder. Mr. White In the old Democrat ic days it was Kinkiminitas and Cone- maiigli r iters, that made the western limit of th Pennsylvania Canal reg ion, which used to contribute to the power of the Democratic party. "Oh. no !" shouted Mr. Townsend. of New York, "it was the Mononga- hela that always helped the Demo cratic party." Continued laughter j and uproar. Mr. Wright I want to know wheth Jer that appropriation was made at the desire of mv colleague. Mr. White It was. and I am proud of my success. Mr. Wright Laughter. -Are thev navigable streams. Mr. Whit They ar e- Mr. Wright How wide are they? Mr. White, (stretching out his arms to their full extent which members assumed to be a dumbshow answer to the question, provoking immoder ate laughter) Over 200 rods. Mr. P.ridges, of Pennsylvania, ask ed Mr. White whether in low water a person could not step across them. Mr. White (indignantly) No, sir ; you could not step across them. The gentleman ought to know something about the jrreat oil region of Penn sylvania. Mr. Bridges I do know some thing about it Mr. White I want it to known to the people of Pennsylvania that the gentleman has libelled my part of the State. Laughter and uproar. Mr. Fllis resumed the floor, but before long Mr. Wright, of Pennsyl vania, again brought up the question of the two streams in the Allegheny mountains, and excited his colleague (Mr. White) to renew the contest In the heat of the discussien they grad ually approached each other from the" opposite sides of the chaniler, and, amid indescribable uproar add con fusion, wrangled as to the size of the streams. Mr. White flourished a book containing an engineer's report on the subject and when, in answer to Mr. Wright's oft repeated ques tion, Mr. White spread out a map on which the streams were indicated, Mr. Wright pointed at the map with aft air of contemptuous trinmph and said that (the width of sheet of the paper) was the width of these streams. He 6eized and waved the map in Mr. White's face (for they had then come close together) and Mr. White made a motion as if he would throw the volume at Mr. Wright's head. There were shouts of laughter, uproar, con fusion and unbounded disorden Fi nally, after four and one-half hours consumed in this manner, the Speak er enforced order. The old governments in Europe tolerate no such traveling people as the tramp, and the average citizen of the United States who is acquainted with that fact believes that her maj esty Queen Victoria has her subjects in Canada trained against the tramp nuisance, but a dir.patch under date of April 24, remotes that belief. The dispatch reads : "A large gang of tramps entered St John's, Quebec, last night, and paraded the streets this morning flourishing revolvers and acting in a riotous manner. The police made ten arrests. One of the party made a dosperate resistance, firing six shots at the Town Inspector before he was captured. Nearly all the prisoners carried arms. The appearance of some of the partv l&tds to the be lief that they are more than ordinary tramps.' A portinn of the Democratic dele- j gation in Congress are greatly exer cised over what a couple of Florida politicians say relative to the vote cast in that State daring the laie Presidential election. It is the old story that was told before the Elec toral Commission, bat with this ad dition, that the northern Republicans who went down to see a fair count, bought the Southern men to cast the vote for Hayes, and that President Hayes knew that they were buying the Electoral vote. They say that they are satisfied that the work of the Electoral Commission cannot be di rectly changed, but that if thev can establish that President Hayes was an acfOTmplice in the effort to secure the vote for himself he can be reach ed through articles of impeachment, The whole truth of the case is easily seen if looked at, it is nothing short of an effort to create electioneering thunder,- by which to elect another Democratic Congress. President aud Mrs. Have spent a few days hi Philadelphia last week. Tbe solid ffles and women turned out to gtet tbem and give them a beartj welcome. The wild tumultuous shout that greeted Lincoln and Grant were not aroused as they passed through tbe city, but no such demonstration could be expected fur the representative of tbe nation in tbe quiet times of peace Lincoln and Grant ruled duriuz tbe ild and tumultuous times of civil wan when tbe nation was ever in th mood of fighting, shouting, Crying and mourn ing. Philadelphia Iras a "bucket shop," that is a place where a board of men sit and buy and Sell stocks, after the fasluon of the sfock brokers, it is simply the beginning of the opening of stock gambling shops everywhere. Heretofore the management of stock gambling has been confined to the old fashioned broker. The bucket shop is an institution of the same kind as that worked by the brokers, without so much pretension about it The number of men on a strike in England last week was estimated at eighty thousand, sixty thousand of whom Are weavers. VCVTS ITEMS. Mr. Sothern says he it more nervous in going before an audience now than be was twenty years ago. Rev. Dr. Hoge, one of the leading preachers in tbe South, has taken to plain speaking against duelling and lynch law. On Wednesday a dispatch from At- j lanta, Ua., says that a cyclone passed ' nrr a section of oAnnfrv fonr inttni I hom Kome G ceariri evervthioe as it went. As far as beard from eicht persons were injured ; several horses and mules were killed ; trees three feet in diameter were twisted off and swept away, and nine dwellings were blown down. The path of the cyclone was three hundred yards wide, passing from southwest to northeast. Three colored mes, Jackson E.lwarda Westlej Turner and Alexander Brown were bung at Franklin, La., on tbe 23d tost., for murder. When the rope was cut aud the drop fell, Edwards and Turner bung dangling in the air, but Brown's knot became untied and be fell to the ground. Tbe Deputy Sher iff carried the booy back into the jail, refij-d tbe scaffold and then Brown, assisted by Sheriff's deputies, reasend ed tbe scaffold, and waj swung off for tbe second time. A band of robbers cn Paturday night a week broke into a farm house near the villiags of Norris near Detroit, Mich ., occupied by Anthony Miller and Matbew Ililiiaed, G ermans. Utilised, on being aroused, was immediately knocked down And feigned insensibility. Tbcy then shot Miller dead and ran sacked tbe bone for money, but got very little. After they had left, Uti lised aroused the neighbors, but no traces of tbe robber could be found. Dealers in cotton goods in New York and at other ports of entry are talking about raising the price of goods, on the strengh of the strike among the cotton mill hands in Eng land. FOKEIC.M.

A law is proposed in England to pre vent tbe importation of live cattle, on ly permitting dead beef to be brongbt into the country, as a precaution against importing eattle disease. Since most of tbe cattle diseases on the "tight little" island are imported, this is a wise measure. England is moving large rnimbers of her Indian troops from India to ward Turkey.

Three of the birds just named weighed CO pounds, whilst three others weighed teapeotive ly, 19, 20 and 20 1 pounds. But the most remarkable feat if yet to be stat ed.

A despatch from Sioux City Iabu under date of April 22nd says; A ter ribls cyclone swept over tbe country east and west of this eity at half-past three on Sunday afternoon; entering the Stats above the Missouri Valley Junction, passing northeasterly across to Storm Lake, Pomeroy ani Fonda. la Monona County trees wers torn op by tbe roots. The house of J. R. Thurston Was wrecked completely. Tbs wing of tbe house of Mrs. Reilly was struck and torn to pieces, and P. Keilly, standing in tbe wing, wis pick ed op, carried over main building and soma trees neaf by and set dowu unin jured. J. J. II aches' bouse, in tbe same neighborhood, was eutirely destroyed, but tbe family were away from borne. Tbe force of tbe storm was terrific, de stroying fences, uprooting trees, over- tnrnine corn cribs, ete. Horses and cattle were picked up aud carried con siderable distances. Near Ouaws tbe bouse of Mr. White was destroyed and the coutents scater ered for utiles. Tbe family fortunate ly were away. Tbe track of the storm was from half a mile to a mile and a half wide. Very heavy bail accompan ied tbe wind storm. A man driving a double team of horses was caught. Tbe wagon harness and driver were taken np and carried several yard, and set down uninjured. On the Illinois Central Railway east of bere, the damage is more serious and is accompanied by loss of life. A whirlwind or tornado passed over Storm Lake from tbe southward, three quarters of a mile east of town- The residence of Alfred King was truck and lifted from its foundation and Hashed into thousands of pieoes. Mr. King's mother was instaatly killed She was found some distance from where tbe house bad stood. Tbe otber mem bers of the household escaped unhurt. Trees In orchards were torn off and carried sffay. Tbe bouse of Mr. Del graff, half a mile fioin King's, was un roofed sad some hogs and cattle were killed. After tbe storm tbe town Storm Lake was crowded with men seeking sur geons to attend tbe sufferers. It is believed tbe damage south of here is very great. Reports aay there were four killed and forty wounded. In Griffith neighborhood, north of Pomeroy a man unknown bad the top of his beadcut off by a sharp board driven into it. An ellerly lady was badly hurt by fiyiog timbers in a bouse at Fonda. The towns of Newall and Sulphur Springs escaped Injury. At Pomeroy tbe bouse of If. V. Laurey was blown down, killing Chas. Pearce. Tbe house of S. Oill were blown down. Mrs. Wallace and family were injur ed and are not eipected to live. A. O. Roddy's house was blown down, injuring several of tbe inmates severely. All tbe bouses were very strong and substantia. It is consider ed tbe severest storm ever known here. A burricaue in Tahiti, February 27, caused the death of over one hundred people and destroyed considerable proper ty. A despatch from Indianapolis on tbe 23 says: A terrific rain and wind storm occurred along the line of the lliuti apolis and S'. Louis railroad between Bethalta and Alton junction, doing cons'derablo damage to fa-m aud rail roads. About one thousand feet of the Indianapolis and St- Louis r0J was washed away. Tbe Chicago, Burling ton and Quiiicy railroad alio suffered severe damagd. A quarter of a mile of track is reported washed away near Alton junction. At Vienna, 111., a num ber of dwelling homes and otber build ings were unroofed and others were in jured by tbe wind storm. No person, is reported killed or seriously injured. One of the heaviest rain storms ever known in St Louis set in about 10 o'clock Monday night and prevailed till about one o'olock next morning. Tbe water fell in torrents, flooding tbe streets and cellars, and doing a good deal of damage. Nearly three inches of water fell. Reports from nearly all parts of the city mention the damage to property by the storm. The loss of an injury to property will amount to many thousands of dollars. At 9 o'clock Monday nigbt a terrific rain an! thunder storm set in at Mem phis, which continued throughout tbe night. Between that bour and 6:45 o'clock yesterday morning 2.85 innhea rain fell. Bayou Uayoso over flowed and swept away the bridgo at Second street, which recently cost the city $23,000. It is feared the planting interests have suffered severely from tbe unpreccdent rains of tbe past week as the bot'.om lands are covered with rain water and the damage to fencing from the overflow of creeks and bayous is very great. A severe storm of wind from the southwest at four A. M. yesterday blew down R. W. Miller'j warehouse, the kitchen of the St. Charles Hotel, and unroofed several bouses in various por tions of Cairo, III. The Chester oouuty Republican says: Two aged people residing st Chestnut Hi!), in Lancaster county, met their deaths in a lantentabld manner last week. They were an old and childless couple, both over fifty years of age, and lived in a small bouse with do ser vants. On Monday they wers seen moving about tbe premise as usual, bat tbe next day tbe house was closed, and presented a deserted appearance. This attracted no particular attention until the continued cries of a ealf as though in hunger led a neighbor to visit tbe barn. Here he found tbe calf's mother was dead, and it almost exhansted for nourishment. Suspicion being aroused by this circumstance, several people went to the house and broke open the door, when a shocking sight met their eyes. Both tbe old people were lying in bed dead, and had been dead for so long that decom position bad commenced. By investi gation it was ascertained that tbe sged pair bad been suffocated by tbe gas thrown off from a little eoal stove in their room, which bad been allowed to burn out with tbs damper entirely shut off, thus throwing tbe fumes out into tbe room. Tbe sad affair ereated a great deal of excitement in tbe neigh borhood. Tbs name of tbe Unfortunate man who with bis wife so unexpectedly met bis death, was George Hortman.
