OF The Vincennes Gazette says: 'So
bold and daring have become the gang
of horse thieves. who have their head
quarters some where along the Wabash
between Vincennes and Terre- Haute, that
horses are considered very precarious
property. We understand that a gentle
man who recently travelled through the
infected district" with a pair of .ne
horses, took the precantion to wstch the
stable one night; and it was we'll he did
SO. for the thieves had spotted his team,
and made two attempts to steal the
horses. Not content with being driven
away once, they returned and made 4
second effort to get them out of the
stable, but were compelled to desist."

long. On the back Of this, strips Of tho
roughly seasoned pine of the same thick.
ness are glued transversely to the grain
Of the cedar. This is set in neat ped
estal Of black walnut. The .Repnblicah

about four inches from the base. n
rained heavily during the afternoon. Ga
Sunday it was bright day, with slight
pleasant breeze. and throughout the day
the standard gradually approached "a

ters of an inch from the perpendicular
line. On Monday morning at 6 o'clock.
it had bent over to three inches At
it was nearly four inches out OF line, and

DEVASTATION BIZ WATER
The Quebec Journal contains q thrilling
description of the progress Of . Water
spout which devastated the parish Of St.
Eleazor, Beauce county. on the 18th 1ls.
The information is furnished by the
priest Of the parish, who states that tho
first warning the people had wasa noise,
like that of the sea in storm, proceeding
from large and dark cloud overhaneing
the place. Soon the cloud seemed to
burst. letting fall toward the earth long
train, somewhat in the shape Of a funnel.
with the small end turned downward.
1t revolved rapidly, kissing like escaping
steam, and swinging to and fro. and imi-
tatiug the contortions Of snake. When
the small end reached the ground, IL
lifted and carried away in its revolving
impetus whatever it came in contact
with. Boards. timber, stones and por-
,tions of houses were whirled in the air
and thrown at distance with fearful
report. Several houses were thus razed
to the ground. One hons and three
cows were drawn by the power of sue.
t'on to the water-spout, and after being
raised high IN the air were let gradually
down. They escaped uninjured, and
were only covered with mud. Five carts
were carried to great height and thrown
across some fields into the woods, bsing
smashed by the fall. large trees, such
as naples, were uprooted and removed
a distanee-of five scres. This phenom-
enon, elthough disastrous and awful.
must, however, have been q sublime
sight. ta ee
