I Fearlal Mrm The recent terrifying storm which occurred on the night of the 19th inst is said to be the worst gale at Louisville, Ky., that ever visited that part of the Ohio valley, from end to end carrying death and destruction is every blast The wind blew at a velocity of forty miles an hour. The homses in the submerged portions of Tiomisville were falling by the score. Many of the upper stories were occu pied. At least two hundred and fifty people are in this flooded portion. No boat can reach them. No boat could live to reach them. They are surely doomed. All the sebmerged places unit inevitably be swept from existence to-night The telegrams from this point of the loss of life from the storm were incorrect The wind blew down old houses on the river front, bnt nothing more. At Cairo, 111., the wind at one time reached the velocity of sixty miles an hoar. At Metropolis it blowed down about forty houses including one church, and injuring several persons. At Evansville, many rumors are current of loss of life. At Chicago and west of St. Paul and sooth through Iowa, eastern Da kota and Missouri played havoc with telegraph wires.

S. circuit court at Boston the other day by Judges Lowell and Nelson which is practically in favor of the Credit Mobilier as against Oakes Ames and the Union Pacific contract. The cases were those of Rowland, commis sioner, vs. Thos. C. Durant and oth ers. Defendants filed demurrers, but the decision includes all points at issue, involving some $10,000,000. The bill alleges in substance that Trustees T. C. Durant aud others, to whom was assigned the contract between Oakes Ames and the Union Pacific railroad, failed to account for many millions of dollars doe under the trust to stockholders of the Credit Mobilier of America. Taking the bill as true under the demnrrerB, the trustees have received many millions of dollars in money and securities, and refuse to account for them under the trust agreement, and they have also been jointly gnilty of gross neg ligence and misconduct in the man agement of the trnst from which the stockholders have suffered loss. A note published the other day in the Chicago Inter Ocean and repub lished in the Fremont Tribune led to the discovery of the whereabouts of the two little sons of Nelson Ong, for whom he had been searching so long. Wilson, seven years old, was living with Thomas Lee at Fremont, and the other, son Joseph, aged eleven was found living with J. W. Essex, at O'Neill. These boys, at the death of their mother, had been placed in the home for the friendless at Chicago and taken ont by Mr. and Mrs. Han sen who went to Omaha and then to Fremont. After Mrs. Hansen's death the boyB were retnrned to the Home, bnt they soon ran away and, young as they were, succeeded in getting back to Fremont by walking when they couldn't steal rides in freight cars. Mr. Ong was happy over his discovery. He had spent hundreds of dollars in his search for his boys. The Wood River Gazette says : "Congress sat down upon the plan recently offered that the people elect postmasters, revenue collectors, dis trict attorneys and other federal offi cials. Such a scheme would not be to the interest of the ambitious con gressman. It would out him off from the control of official patronage ana weaken his following and influence." It may not always be so. Every official should, as far as possible, be directly responsible to the people whom he serves. The Hastings Journal warns citi aens against a gang of hard characters in the town for no good purpose, and says "the breaking into a hoese or robbing of a store would not surprise as at any time while this gang re sains." A sscent dispatch from Berlin says: "Germany has three times in? slated that England shonld proclaim a protectorate over Egypt, bnt Eng land appears to he afraid ef irritating ShebimCakteb, of Cherry county, Neb., has been notifiedhy the vigi lance committee to leave the county immediately.

Bismarck has returned the Lasker resolutions to the German Minister at Washington, instructing him to re tarn them to the House of Represent atives, as they are not acceptable to Germany, and ask for their recall.

Miss Claba Watmns committed suicide the other day at the residence of Harry Sand6, near the fair grounds at Nebraska City, by shooting herself. No reason is'given for her committing the deed. Her parents now reside at Des Moines, Iowa, and when her parents removed to Iowa Clara for some reason failed to go with them. The commissioner of the land office at Washington claims that 274,000 acres of land have been patented to the Burlington and Missouri River railroad in Nebraska in excess of the quantity it is entitled to receive, and has allowed the company sixty days to show cause why the land should not revert to the government W. H. Burns, local agent of the Union Pacific at Council Bluffs has been appointed general joint agent at that point of all the lines in the West ern Trunk Line Association. 'Local agents of other lines, members of the Western Trunk Line Association, are instructed to report to Burns as their superior officer. An exchange says that the snpreme court of Iowa has decided that when a wife has been deserted by her hus band, withont her fault, and left with no means of supporting her family of young children, she is justified in selling the personal property of her husband to obtain money. Senator Logan has introduced a bill in the senate which provides that persons honorably discharged from the military or naval service of the United States shall be preferred for appointment to civil offices, provided they possess the necessary business capacity. Miss Malissa Collier, at a dance a short time ago in Owen county, Ky., wore among other ornaments a large hickory club, with which at an opportune moment she vigorously belabored John Rudolph, who had been talking about her. - Bishop O'Connor of the Catholic church created quite a 'sensation re cently by declaring in a sermon that hereafter no Catholic need apply to him for a dispensation to marry a non-Catholic, that they must.appry to the Pope.

Lanier has fled to Sonth America. W. R. Miller was found murdered the other day near Marietta, O., and his wife and brother were arrested for the crime. It is said the woman threatened to kill her husband be cause she loved his brother. A. W. McKinney, of Troy, N. Y., died in Florida and his wife brought the body home for burial. On arrival it was found that the box contained only an empty casket. The body had been stolen en route. Marquis DeMore's sheep, in the Little Missouri country, M. T., have met with a remarkable death rate. Six thousand out of twelve thousand have died. The terrible fatal results indicate poisoning. The state wool growers association met the other day at Lincoln with about fifty delegates present and much interest manifested. The asso ciation declared in favor of the wool tariff of '67. Last week the snow blockade throughout the San Juan district of southern Colorado continued. At Silverton, Ouray and other mining camps the snow is six feet on the level. When a teacher at the Carlisle, Pa., school for Indian youths asked a pupil: "What is the axis of the earth?" he was answered: "A think line on which it wheels around." These can be no possible quibbling or objecting if the delegates io the national convention are elected by4 district eonventiene specially called aid held for that purpose. T the Memory ef Sarah Rivet Wk departed thU Life Jas. SM, 18841. BY JOHN WALKER. Let Jolict mourn for full is the urn Of griel that now lies at our goed neigh bor's door. There in no denying he has had a Bore God always loves for to visit the pure. She was a sweet blossom and dearto bis bosom, The one who departed scarce one month ago; To see her was pleasure and joy beyond measure, Her conscience as clear as the light fall ing snow. No doubt this sweet maid had all medi cal aid, But science was futile her dear life to save, For this angel of love was demanded above, And she bent her head down to the voice of the grave. Through dark nights and long days she fervently prayed. In the last throes of agony struggling for breath; And tbe while that she prayed she often times said How welcome to me is tbe angel of aeain; The good Lord heard her prayer and sent speedily there A seraph on wings in the shape of a dove With a commission well blest to place on her breast And waft her pure soul to the man sions of love. With calm resignation this gem of crea tion Obeyed the dread summons aud passed under the rod And her body's imbedded and tomb over shadowed From the sun's piercing rays by the temple of God. This lovely fair one now lies alone Beneath the church yard where life's troubles do end. Her equals were few, and superiors none: Of all her acquaintance she lacked not a friend. No doubt her father and mother deep grief to smother In memory of her will shed bitter tears, Aware she's the third of their first born birds That's left their cabin louely within a few years. It is well worth confessing sho taught us a lesson. In her battle through life she prayed all the while And when her eyes grew dim, she had her lamp trimmed And God's grace affords an abundance of oil. It relieves this sad story to know she's in glory, Let her father not pine or her mother yet sigh While they know their dear daughter passed o'er the dark water And dwells with her Jesus 'mongst angels on high. Since we know God is good it is time to conclude Knowing well our creator does nothing in vain Let us make bold endeavor from this out, ever, And fervently sing, hallelujah, amen.
