A man by the name of Edkin, from Williamsport, called at Bow man & Coulter's Livery Stable on Monday and hired a horse to drive iLto the country a few miles. The man not returning on Monda}', the men at the stable became alarmed, End on Tuesday Mr. Coulter with a team of horses started toward Sulli van county in search o< Edkin. A few miles above Sonestown he dis covered the horse and buggy down an embaukweufc. Ou making an investigation the man was also found near the buggy, in au uncon scious condition, having in some way driven over the bank during Monday nightj while, it is supposed, he was trying to get far enough tiway to sell tho outfit and leave for parts unknown. The wagon was badly broken, while the horse was bruised and skinned. WliHe Mr. Coulter was busy getting tho horse up the mountain the fellow regained consciousness and got away.— Muncy Luminary, This roust be the same rooster who visited LaPorte. in search of a team, ou Tuesday and Wednesday of last week, and who related a sad story to the effect that his horses had run away, throwing him out of the vehical, and that bis w*gou was heavily loaded with goods at the time, to the amount of several hun dred dollars. The fellow got but little sympathy at LaPorte, how ever, as he was in a drunken stupcr when he reached here, aud had our landlords trusted him to what he called for in fche line of spirits, he would have retired iu the same condition.

About twenty minutes after 5:00 :>'clock p. m. Monday a genuine Western olyolonu visited this popu lar Summer resort. Tljo first evi ience of the corning storm were the icavy black funnell shaped clouds bo the southwest. In a few minutes ireen from 6 inches to 1$ inches in liamcter came flying through the lir several hundred fret. above the ;ops of the bouses. In another moment the crash came and every thing in its waj' was picked up and mrled into the air. Buildings crashed, and fell and the air was tilled with bricks, shingles, boards, limber and trees and all manner of iebris. In three minutes it was over ind when the frightened people of the Mere looked out a terrible sigLt was seen. Following isa list of the buildings wrecked and damaged : Bigger's saw mill iu the valley uid about one and mile from the 'Mere was the first building in its course, so far as beard from. This was torn to pieces and scatter ed for a half mile distant. The next was a house occupied by Lincoln Moyer, also in the valley of the out let of the lake. This dwelliug was a total wreck, not the slightest piece of wood of tiny description re mains here to denote the recent erection of a dwelling. From here it struck the Cliff Iloase tearing the roof off of oue-half of the main building. The occupants of this building escaped very fortunate as thb structure is situated clill of the mountain and it was supposed that it would be blown to atoms. Continuing the gale struck the resi dence of Mr Peale, Sr., tearing the the house to shreds. Mr. Peqde was in an out building at the time, »nd was carried in tlje neighborhood of 6 or 8 rods and sustained several bruises about the head. He was uncc scious when found and was of the :upression £hn£ lightning had struck the building. Mr. and Mrs. Peale were removed to the Alleghany house after the storm had subsided.. Opposite of Mr. Peak's residence and on the mountain clitf stood the following buildings :—Occupied re spectively by Mr. Burkholder, Chas. Brink and E. S. Chase and the Baptist Chapel. The residence of the former is Utterly toru to shreds and the tim ber and furniture scattered for ten rods aud perhaps more distant. Mr*. Burkholder was alone and attempted to hold the door and when the buildiug crushed, she was eartied eight ro Is from tho foundation of the building, lie? arm was bruised by a falling timber. Mr. B. is a hard-working young man and feels the loss of his home very much. The residence of Chas. Brink «'d E. S. Chase were not disturbed. A miracle. The Baptist Chapel, only two rods from the residence of Mr. Chase, lays a complete wreck. Nothing there to indicate a church except the foundation. From thence the storm advanced to the Alle ghauy Hotel, the Brush Cottage aud the Smith Cottage. These buildings were sUglitly injured The resi dence and store of W. 11. Vaubus kirk, on LaPorto ave., was thrown flat to the grouud and is a horrible wreck. Five people were iu the buildiug when the craih came aud were rescued from the debris by helping hands. The infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Vanbuskirk was laying in the baby carriage aud strange a» it way seem the wagon was crush ed to splinters and the infant was unharmed. The Mrs. was slightly injured.

One Italian was injured by the falling of a limb and it is thought he cannot recover. The others escaped uninjured. The rail road track was covered with fallen trees. E. V.
