ton and she has covered herself with imperisha-
BILE honor. Nothing could be more complete
than the victory just obtained by the Republic
cans, except the defeat sustained by the Buchan-
iers. The entire delegation in Congress, eight
thousand majority for the Republican State
ticket, two-thirds of the legislature, with con-
troll, for the first time of the State Senate, are
among the browning fruits of this great tri-
umph.
The FIRST Congressional district, which, two
years since, returned Hall, Nebraska demccrat)
by an alleged majority of 179, has now sent the
same Mr.. Hall to private life, and has chosen a
sound and reliable Republican in his place, by
at least a thousand majority-the latest tele-
graphic report makes it fifteen hundred. The
same district, in 1852, gave majority of 727 for
Pierce. The second district, which gave Pierce
plurality of 403 four years ago, has now given
the Republican party a majority of four or FIVE
thousand. The state Senate, last year Nebraska,
has been redeemed, while the Republican maiori-
ty in the House has been largely increased.
That will do very well for a beginning. Re-
joice while you may, Hawkeyes of Iowa, for when
the returns come in from Maine, your noble VIC
tory will, to use one of General Washington's
comparisons which Mr.. Sparks did not like, be
but fea-bite in comparison.--A. Y. Evenang

WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 3, 1856.


For q week past the papers from the East
have been filed with accounts of damage done
by the late rain storm, which extended along the
whole Atlantic coast. $780,
On the Conn. River R. R., above Brattleboro,
a bridge was displaced by the washing of the
rain, and the train precipitated down a steep
embankment. number were badly bruised,
but fortunately no lives lost.
At Springfield, regiment Of military en-
ca,hped on an Island in the river, sheltered
themselves under their tents for two days, but
oil the third dav were compelled to surrender
at discretion to their advancing enemy, and re-
treat for their lives. The island was speedily
covered with water.
At Hartford, the Connecticut river rose to a
height of % feet and inches above low
water mark, the highest food ever known at this
season, and, with one exception, the highest that
has ever occurred. Whole streets were made
navigable, great suffering Occasioned among
families who were drowned out, and an immense
amount Of damage done to the crops all along
the Conn. river Valley.
At Albany, the streets and docks were under
water, and whole wood yards floating.
At Poughkeepsie, the damage would amount
to some fifteen or twenty thousand dollars
The railroad, near that city, was buried to the
depth of two or three feet in stone, mud and
gravel, for distance of several hundred feet,
bv the water washing down Il gorge, and the
passengers were obliged to walk half mile to
meet another train.
In Boston, New York, and the various Atlantic
cities, the damage to vessels and wharves was
very considerable. In some cases, lives were de-
stroyed by lightning.
At New Orleans and vicinity, the effects OF
the storm were most disastrous. Last Island. a
noted summer resort, was entirely inundated
Every building was swept away, and no less
than 200 lives lost. The steamer Star, with
80 passengers, was wrecked on Gas Island
The bodies of the dead were plundered by pi-
rates on the island. Several steamers are miss
ing. The crops suffered exceedingly. At Baton
Rouge, fourteen inches of rain fell. The Banks
of the river at Bayou Sara caved in, carrying
awav three hundred residences. Loss estimated
at 100000.

A Shaker Discussion-An Irish President.

Mr.. Evans, a leader among the New Lebanon
Shakers, held u public discussion at Military
Hall, l43 Bowery, yesterday afternoon, at which
all persons present were invited to answer him.
A Mr.. McFndly was president of the meeting,
and each speaker was allowed ten minutes. Mr..
President, and so long rs he pas President, order
should be preserved at all hazards" This seemed
entirely gratuitous, as more orderly audience
never assembled. Sand now" said MIR. McF., elf
there's any notices to be given, let them be hand
ed up and they will be read; and if they are not
handed up instantly, they will not be read at all,
as long as | am liz the house," This was said
with a threatening look and tone.
An old gentlemen here arose and said
MIR. President, wish to make suggestion.
The Presdent-( interruptng y The gentleman
will take his seat. No one can speak here till |
give him leave! Laughter and hisscs.]
All things being finally ready, MIR. Evans spoke
upon the Shaker doctrines, among others, advo-
eating celibacy.
During the remarks the Hall rapidly filled up,
and all the seats were occupied. At every fresh
arrival, the President would get up, and waving
aloft his hand, greatly to the annoyance of the
speaker, call out ''Gentlemen must be seated
take seats there, gentlemen; you shall not stand
while Pm President!''
At the close of Mr.. Evans speech, he was fol.
lowed by MIR. Mcdonald, an old gentleman, who
denounced celibacy as the most abominble of all
errors, extolled conjugal felicity and the charms
Of women. He declared that he had been mar
ried three times, and if he were single man
again would be married tomorrow. Laughter. |
He quoted from Byron and Burns. and from a
Mohammedan author, to show how they regarded
the matter, and said that the Shakers repudiated
all this felicity. He thought Mr.. Evans lazy
man, and that he was trying to get rid of the
cares and labor of bringing up children.
This speaker was so indiscreet in some of his
illusions that he drove nearly all the women out
of the house, though it is to be observed they did
not leave until he had finished. Their places,
however, was soon supplied by new corners, and
the hall became uncomfortably crowded. After
many attempts on the part Of the President to
make people sit down when there were not only
no seats but barely standing room for them, the
whole being attended with much confusion, the
discussion proceeded, and several speakers replied
to MIR. Evans. The latter was evidently in u de-
cided minority, and the sympathies of the audi
ence were almost unanimous in the cause of
marriage.-N. Y. Zee. Post.

DIsrRrssIxG.-Last evening Nfrs. Fitzgerald,
who lives near Dacotah, recited to the City
Marshal rather distressing case Of her being
robbed by hired girl by the name of O'Neai.
1t appears that the girl had been but short time
in her employ, and during Mrs. Fitzgerald's abb
sence from home on Wednesday, she took occa-
sion Of robbing her of all her clothing and some
$40 in money. Mrs. Fitzgerald walked into the
city yesterday, in the hope of overtaking her,
and after some inquiry she:heard of girl answer
ing her description passing mp Main street about
seven o'clock. The girl has friends living in the
the city, but unfortunately they were known to
Mrs. F. The poor woman seemed to be in Z
very bad way about it, as her husband was absent
from home, and she had walked in and left her
children at home without any one to take care Of
them. She was determined to return afoot the
whole distance of ten miles to them on last night.
We left her with q large crowd around her, and
we trust that some of them has had compassion
enough to have taken her home again BY some
speedy conveyance Dub uque Ez., dag. %. &

A REMARKABLE RIvER.-In the province
of Andalusia. Spain, there is a river called
the Tinto, from the nues of its water, which
are as yellow as topaz. Itpossesses the most
extraordinary and singular qualities. If a
stone happens to fall in and rest upon another,
they both become, in one years time, perfectly
united and conglutinated. All the plants on
its banks are withered by its waters whenever
they overflow. No kind of verdure will come
up where its waters reach nor can any fish
live in its stream. The river rises in the
Sierra Moreno Mountains, and its singular
properties continue till other rivers run into j,
and alter its nature.

Expulsion of a Country Postmaster.

10 certain little town in Fayette county. q
very quiet and inoffensive citizen of the town,
through the agency of some of his friends sue
ceeded in getting appointed to the responsible
position OF Postmaster. After having enjoyed
the honor of this Office for short time, few of
his political enemies set their heads to work, and
got up conspiracy against him, and forwarded
on documents to the ''heavy" man at Washing
ton: with which they charged him with being a
Wing. This charge was sufficient to arouse the
indignation of the boss man of the establishment
ut the Capitol, and to appease his anger and gra-
THY his desire for revenge, he had him removed,
and the cold liner'' located in his place; the
friends OF the victim of general revenge, know
ing the charge against him to be devoid of truth,
went to work and gathered up testimony to the
effect that the expelled officer was, and always
had been democrat, and Immediately forwarded
on the proof to Washington; the rage of the
General on receiving this important news was
very great-to think that he had been deceived
so to make amends for the wrong he had infict-
ed, he removed the incumbent and renstated the
much abused object of his wrath. This was
considered settler, but not so, his uniting op-
ponents discovered mares nest, and in that nest
they found that the re.appointed Postmaster had
belonged to the terrific Order of Know Nothiugs !;
this was glorious nut for them to crack, so ike
band OF Trojans, they dragged forth from the
hidden recesses of the dark lantern order. the
damn:ng proof, and sent it on post haste to the
fiery General, who on reading the startling deve-
lopments, CRASHED his teeth with a spirit of fury
that would have struck terror into the heart Of
the widest lunatc in Bedlam. ssVengeance is

head, and so much for a villainous Know No.
thing" the fat goes forth, and the head of the
Democratic Know Nothing flies off, the lifeless
trunk rolls upon the gr ,und, and live Democrat
steps into the boots of the defunct Postmaster
The general wipes the perspration from his
brow, rolls back into his easy chair overcome
with the terrific war of determination he has
been engaged in, and falls to sleep. Thus ends
the pigmy war of the Postmaster General of the
United States against Postmaster of six by
ten Office in Fayette county, worth about twenty
five dollars per annum.
