when all this failed, the colored Voters
were hustled, hit on the bead with.
clubs, and driven away by violetiee and
blows, which often left them nearly
helpless. This was for intimidation,
partly, it appeared.

netary sense. The value of the forests destroyed,
and the immense loss-by retarding develoPment
which must ensue, is incalculable. The fires in
thls.State appear to.heve started from about the
town of Breckenridge, a town in Towns county,
near the line of the iorthern Pacido railroad.—
From here it appears to have spread to the ' Big
Woods,' and thence all through the southern por
tion of the State. Numbers of tillages and cit.
lee were swept from the face of the earth, not
withstanding all that foresight and sagacity could
do to save them. Men by the hundreds were
stationed about their outskirts with the, purpose
of fighting the irresistible . elements, and every
precaution that human ingenuity' could suggest
was used—in some oases with ,some slight suc
cess,. but generally in vain.. Glencoe, Levant,
Mankato, New Ulm, and other towns and 'ham
lets were completely' swept out 'of existence in
toe tremendous war of the 'elements.. At least
350 fame, with all their houses,. fences, .utensils
and live stock; were consumed. More than . 200
people were burned alive, andthe pecuniary loss
is estimated at between two and three millions'of
,dollarg. At-the` present time the tires in this
State are reported-toitave nearly died out, and
the path of the stormls-marked'only by'ruleed
houses and the black remains of what was dace
the noble forest and prairie land of the State of
hitunetota."
