Gored to Death by a Bull.

On Thursday last, Mr.. Abraham lie
Fevre, respectable citizen Of Hayfeld
township, was killed by bull belonging
to butcher in Conneautville. A neigh.
Dor Of Mr., lie Fevre's was in possession
Of the bull and kept him in his barn. On
Thursday afternoon he broke down the
barn door and the man being sick, sent
for Mr.. L. to assist in securing him He
came, and while endeavoring to get him
back into the barn, the animal made a
pitch at him and threw him over the fence.
Mr.. L. got up, apparently injured. and
approached the fence. but the bull, upon
his temperance. made another pitch at
him and threw the fence down upon him
when he horned and mangled him in a
horrid.manner. 1t was two hours before
the body could be taken away from the
bull, as he walked around it, occasionally
tossing it upon his horns and then tramp
ing it.-MeaduiHe Journal.

highly favorable.
The Indians were very troublesome. A
fight occurred between the whites and

were killed.
Twenty gamblers were indicted at Sac

Florida Rcgulators-FiveM Men hung and
Two Women Whipped.

The Regulators are doing lively bus
mess in Florida. The Savannah Republi-
can says:
"We are informed that within month
five persons were hung by the Regulators
in and about Tampa Bay. for divers Sc
rious ofTenses, and without the formal
trial by jury. One man was hung to a
tree, in the streets Of Tampa, so high that
his feet could not be reached by persons
passing on horseback. He also states
that negro was arraigned for trial for
murder in Nassua county, some time since
when but eleven jurymen answered to
their names. While the officer ives ab-
sent, summoning talesman 10 make up
the twelfth, some fifteen Regulators en-
tered the courtroom took the prisoner
from the box to place on the Florida and
Georgia line, and hung him to tree.
"One OF the volunteers in the late SER
vice 'gainst the Indians, he also states,
for some offense, was arrested by them,
whipped within hearing Of the camp to
which be was attached, and given twenty
fourhours to leave the State. The intrcp-
id soldier rather than meet the threaten
ed vengeance of the Regulators, preferred
deserving; and has not been heard Of since.
Two women of i'll reputc were taken up
in Tampa and whipped, each receiving
fifteen lashes. and given notice to leave in
twenty-four hours. AT the expiration of
the time, they gave no evidence Of any in
tention to move, when they were again
arrested, and another hagellation inflicted.
besides having their heads shaved, and
themselves assisted out Of the place."

GREAT FLOOD IN THE MIAMI RIv
Err.

DAYTON, O., June 1.-THE Miami riv-
er has risen to within four feet Of the
height Of the great flood Of ls47, and IS
still rising at the rate Of three or four
inches per hour.
1t is raining steadily. The water is
running over the road between the Main
street bridge and McPhersontown, which
will probably be entirely under water be-
fore morning.
Fears are entertained for the safety Of
the levee, which is about seven feet above
the present stage of water.
1t is rumored that the river at Troy and
Piqua is higher than it was in l847.-
Tho whole country North Of Dayton
seems to be flooded beyond any former
period, and much injury has been done to
the crops.

SINGULAR DIsEAsE.-A letter from
South Florida to the Savannah News, dated
June lst, says that stran nge and fatal
disease has broken out among the deer Of
that section:
"They are found dead in every direc-
tion-in some instances that have heard
of by gangs. There is now scarcely the
sign Of one to be seen where they were
before numerous. They appear to die. in
most instances. suddenly--full fleshed aud
fat. Some appear to linger with the dis
ease, and are found to have sore or rotten
mouth and tongue. Ihave seen numbers
myself within the last ten or twelve days.
The cattle are also similarly affected, but
not yet fatally. They have sore mouth
and tongue, covered by thick, DARK
scurf. and walk like a badly foundered
horse. Where this disease among the
deer and cattle broke out, or how for Il
extends, have no means ofkuowing. Il
prevails as far as I heard from. What
is still more strange. the buzsards and
carrion crows have also disappeared. II
is common remark that none are to be
seen. None have been fonnd dead, that
have heard Of"
The Wyandot pioneer. (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1853-1868, 1858-06-18

Two FooLs.-Henningsen and Lock
ridge, two Of the Central American fill
busters. have been quarrelling leach hav-
ing told too much truth about the other.
Henningsen has written letter, in which
he offers TO fight, Lockridge. but he says
he won't correspond with him because
Lockridge commences his epistle with a
little /! This isn't quite equal to the man
out West, who wouldn't vote for Ger.
tain man for Judge. because he spelled
God with a small !"

At last accounts. the town Of Cairo. at
the junction Of the Mississippi and Ohio
rivers, was entirely overAowed. and the

LAFAYETTE, Ind, June lit COM
menced raining at twelve o'clock Wednes.
day noon, and poured almost constantly
until this morning. Tho Wabash river
rose with fearful rapidity. The inhabi'
tants on the river bottoms awoke to find
their houses rapidly filing with water,
and were obliged to escape in boats and
by swimming their horses. The Wca
and Wildcat creeks rose in Il few hours to
raging floods. The Toledo Wabash, and
Western railroad bridge across Wea creek
was entirely swept away. The damage
done amounts to twenty thousand dollars.
Two more breaks occurred West, and
no less than five culverts East on the same
road are gone. On the New Albany and
Salem Railroad, bridge across Wea
Greek, and one at Orookstot Station are
gone. Other serious breaks have occur
ed,
tits impossible to estimate the amount
Of damage done to the Wabash and Erie
Canal. At Wildcat, the feeder for this
level, four miles East, the lock and dam
and five hundred feet Of embankment
have been swept away. also the State
bridge. There are several breaks be-
tween here and there.
Several large breaks occurred at Atti-
ca. Delphi, Logansport and Wabash. 1t
will be impossible to use the canal again
this summer. The bodies Of the fireman
and engineer who were killed on the La
fayette and Indianapolis Railroad, were
recovered last evening. The wreck was
terrible. One bridge and several culverts
on that road are gone.
The Wabash River is still rising, and i'm
mense quantities Of saw-log,s rails, &c.,
ere sweeping past. No trains or mails
can leave for several days. Whole farms
are under water. Much grain stored in
barns will be totally lost.
