A GIGANTIC RAINFALL

In Weight.
Secretory of Inlet no I Affairs Stewart
has issued a report relative to*llie recent
floods in Pennsylvania, caused by the
rainfall of May 80th, to June Ist. It was,
guys the report, a gigantic ruinfall,
amounting to an average of eignt inches
in depth of water, failing on an erea of
more than 12,000 square miles, and cover
ing the mountain pleatettu and its eastern
declivities from Johnstown toHamsburg,
and extending northward from Somerset
to AlcKcan and Tioga couulii s.
This area o. rainfall was oval in form
but broader toward the north branch of
ttie Susquehanna. Around this central
body of flooded country the quantity fell
off rapidly to six, four and two inches,
although iho highlands in Man land and
Virginia, at the south, nod in noiiheust
Pennsylvania and southern New York
had flooded rains of three to live inches iu
depth.
MTTI.U RAINFALL IS l'l'lTSUl'ltOH.
At Pittsburgh there was only one and
a half inches, although in Ohio, Michi
gan and Indiana, nearly three inches of
rain fell on the 2!) th and 00th of May.
There were flooding ruins at the same
time in Kentucky, Tennessee and West
Virginia. In the sontneru counties of
this State the rainfall was light, from
half an inch to an inch only, although
the southeast gale was more violent
there, and it swept Delaware and South
Jersey with great force on May 81.
The appalling losses of life at Johns
town, of course, could ltot have resulted
from any storm, however great the rain
fall, yet it was apparent at Philadelphia
on the afternoon of May 80th, and dming
all the following day, that the great heat
and violent gale indicated a heavy rain
fall in the interior of the State.
Taking the entire area visited by heavy
and general rainfall May 28th to June Ist,
there is
NO RECORDED EXPERIENCE
approaching it in magnitude. In eastern
Kansas and over much of Missouri, it
reached an average of three iuches. In
Illinois and nil the States intervening to
the quantity varied from
two to four inches ; the observers of the
several States' weather systems reporting
very fully. All their reports have been
received and consulted, in writing and
paper.
The States southward, including Ten
nessee. had general and heavy rains nearly
equal to those just referred io. And,
while in the Ohio Valley and vicinity of
Pittsburgh there was less rain, the first
mountainous elevations eastward wore
deluged with rain, the southern border
having several destructive local storms
or cyclones, such as are characteristic of
the southern border of an urea of general
disturbance.
WEIGHT OE THE WATER.
The vast weight of water falling is
shown by a calculation based on the
weight of a cubic foot, thirty-five feet be
ing a ton. In the surface of a square
mile there would be 0(5,377 tons for an
inch in depth, 531,010 tons for a depth of
eight inches. The quantity falling on 12,-
000 square miles, at this rate, is 6,732,-
3-40,000 tons. The force exercised tv vast
- bodies of water in motion is irresistible.
In concluding, the report says :
'• Iu all respec's the conditions were
the most remarkable and peculiar of those
knowu to attend a general rainfall, and
the vast masses of water thrown down
over the surface ot several States other
than Pennsylvania, only add to the diffi
culty of explaining the origin of the
storm, or the source from which so great
a body of water can have been derived." !

Mr. S. M. Harter. Secretary of the Y. [
M. C". A., has received the following letter I
from Paris, and we are allowed to pub- :
lisli it :
Paris, August 5, 1880.
Mr. s. M. Hurler, General Secretary M. C. J., I
John*to\cn. I'a, I
My Dear Brother: The hearts of our
French young men, like those of so many [
others, have been profoundly touched by |
the terrible tales of suffering and death |
that have come to us from your city, and ;
we have wished to send to your Aasocia- '
tion a little token of sympathy and broth- j
erly love.
Our young men are not' very well off,
and the amount we send is not large, but
it is sent with much love and with many I
prayers for your prosperity in future. i
Our French boys feel that they have re- j
"eived much from Association workers in j
America and send the sum enclosed also I
as a slight token of their gratitude.
Yours in His name,
<4. Yandhr Bekex,
F. A. Qaylord.
A Public Nuisance,
Dnmkeness bus bosomc so common on !
our streets that it is SupossiMe to go out
of doors without seciM men staggering ;
on the pavements. This is a crying nui- j
sance to our people and a source of much I
odium to our city. Strangers who daily
visit us think that the drunkards are resi- 1
dents of this place, which, for the most :
part, is not the case. They are the refuse -
and skum of nearly every city in the '
aountry, who, from curiosity or avarice,
or maybe both, have flocked about us
like buzzards about a dead horse. Such
offenders should get the extreme penalty ;
of the law. No mercy [should be shown
them, for besides the disgrace they cause
us, they also injure our merchants, who j
would reap rich harvests from the re
spectable visitors who would come to see
us were this crying nuisance abated.

to do permanent good is Ayer'a Sar
saparilla. It purifies, enriches, and
vitalizes the blood, and thus strengthens
every function and faculty of the body.
" I have used Ayer's Sarsaparilla, in

—Henry Bacon, Xenia, Ohio.
"For some time I have been troubled
with heart disease. I never found any
thing to help me until I began using

this medicino six months, but it has re
