DREADFUL INUsDATIoSs IN HoLLAND.-Ac-
counts from the provinces of Cumberland and
North Brabant and from the Lower and Upper
Rhine, report fearful foundations, caused by
the damming up Of the driving ice in the rivers.
As many as seventy villages are reported sub.
merged In some instances the water had
risen to the tops of the houses. Bridges had
been carried away; the dykes and dams had in
many places yielded to the pressure upon them;
property to an immense amount had been
swept off; many cattle had been drowned, and
a number of human lives had been lost. 1t is
said that Holland has not been visited by q
similar inundation for one hundred and forty
four years. At last accounts the ice was break
ing up and the waters were retiring.

burg, which is telling at Vienna. Wall street
jumps at the condition Of consuls, cotton, &C.,
at Paris, London, and Liverpool, as a sure
sign. hebulls of Wall street are consequently
in the ascendant today, and the bears are in
the back ground.
Wall street has something plausible to rest
on in these conclusions. 1t is said that the
Emperor Napoleon will not go to Sebastopol
yet awhile but will await the issue of the
peace conferences at Vienna, and that he ex-
poets peace, because the Allies will not make
the reduction of Sebastopol sine qua non
The Allies are evidently sick of their customer;
but the difficulty is in getting rid of the Tartar
they have caught at Sebastopo. Are they
really begging off? Nous oe,rons.
The weather is at last beautiful. Give us
peace in Europe, and we shall have a summer
Of unexampled prosperity.

PEACE RESTORED AT CINCINNATI
RESULT OF THE ELECTION.


The disgraceful riots at Cincinnati seem to
have been brought to q close. The papers
from that city, as late as Saturday, announce
perfect restoration of peace and order. The
Commercial states that not only had certificates
of election been granted to all the democratic
candidates, but that Mr. Farren has been sworn
in as Mayor, an&will enter upon his duties to-
day. His majority is 1888, and to show that
their could have been no great amount of ille-
gal voting as charged, the Commercial states
that the vote last October, (when the majority
for the Know-nothing candidate for Supreme
Judge was 6,425,) was only SO less than it is
now; in other words, the Democratic vote has
increased 3, ACT, and the Order decreased 1881,
making clear Democratic gain of 6,758.
In the Eleventh and Twelfth wards, where
the ballots for Mayor were destroyed by the
mob, the vote for Magistrate is the criterion by
which the result is arrived at. The Know
nothings, it is said, have majority of the
Councils, and will contest the election of the
Mayor and other officers. The Gazette, Know
nothing, expresses the opinion that the Demo
cratic candidates were entitled to their certiG-
Gates Of election, and adds that under the cir
cumstances, they are glad they have obtained
them.

PRODUCTION to his Travels in Europe and the
East:
"On the side Of Mount Lebanon, as sat in
the cottage Of my college friend Calhoun, he
inquired: Are your parents yet livingT /
said 'Yes;' and then l turned to the window,
looked out over the blue sea to the far west,
and wept, as / thought how rich the treasure
Of parental love, surviving. the pevishness Of
infancy, the waywardness Of youth, the ingrati-
tude Of manhood. And now, when the children
have gray hairs, going out after them as fresh
and sweet as the breast Of young mother
yearning over her first born. God Of my
fathersl spare me to kiss the wrinkles Of my
parents yet again. The prayer was answered

Few things are more difficult of execution
than catering for the public appetite, in tht

and exceeding fastidous. The great difficulty
is, that all parties, upon all subjects, seem dis
posed to run into ultraisms. A man in some
parts of our highly favored country if he should
happen to express oil opinion favorable to some
system of general emancipation of the slaves
by the people Of the States in some constitu-
tio,,di mode, he would be drummed out of the
country, as miserable Abolitionist," plotting
treason against the State, and especially against
the rights of our slaveholding fellow citizens
While similar sentiments in other locations
would send him to Congress and enroll his
name among the true philanthropists of his
age.

and the seizure Of Cuba for and in considera.
