The sweep OF the Great Tornado.

The Chicago Press states that the course
of the tornado is now traced from Fort
Dodge, Webster County, Iowa, more than
200 miles west of the Mississippi River to
the North. h.eastern corner Of Ottawa Coun-
ty, Michigan, space Of $50 miles, without
diminuton Of force, shifting towns, farms,
forests and everything on the surface of the
earth with the violence of a battery of a
thousand guns. Whole forests were crush
ed in an nstaud, and respectable streams of
water literally scooped out by the mighty
tempest. The time occupied in travelling
450 miles was but brief, as the tornado
swept over Webster County, Iowa on Sun
day afternoon, and Ottawa County, Michi-
gan, on Sunday night, The appearance Of
the storm at Cedar Valley, Iowa, was very
terrific The noise was like stupeudous
cataract, and all turned pale as they listen
ed. In the south wing of the storm the
water-spout or whirlwind was first seen bel
lying and swayng down from the clouds,
ana twisting and writhing until it finally
reached the earth, and became an hour.glass
shaped column, rushing wildly on with the
gale. The column looked to be about one
fourth Of a mile high, and four or FIVE rods
through its smallest part-an awfuily sub
lime and magnificent spectacle. The north
wing of the storm was much more extensive
than the other, and comprised the real toy
nadO so far as the effects prove, and had
the appearance Of mountain mass OF heavy,
inky colorcd clouds crashing along the sur
face of the ground. When the two wings
combined, the storm.Gend rushed eastward
with resistless power.
A child seven years old was carried by
the storm distance Of two miles over Cedar
| river.
A little girl, three years old, was found
in slough, and probably couple Of miles
from the track Of the tornado. She was
seen to fall and was found with her head
buried in the mud. Taken out, she was found
get dlire.
From Rogers Settlement, in Clinton
county, child four years old was carried a
distance Of two miles aud killed.
OF a family Of six, in the same county,
all were killed but one, little girl, who was
carried half mile, aud escaped with life
but badly injured.
Mr. Ames, who lived in fine new brick
house, saw the storm coming, aud hurried
or forced his family into root house. A
few minutes afterwards they came out, anc
found houses, barns, etc, in ruins. SeVera
of his horses were killed, and one had a raj
driven completely through his body.
Between De Witt and Camanche there
is not single building left standing along
the track of the tornado. Seventy-six heaC
of cattle and horses were buried and a
many more left dead on the praires. Tree
are completely stripped, and look like peel
ed poles.

THE PLEURo-MANIA.-The extraordinary
disease prevailing among the neat cattle in
Massachusetts has reached such a magni-
tude, and is threatening such consequen-
ces, in the spread of the epidemic to other
States, as may inhct serious blow upon
the agricultural interests of the whole
country. The danger is increased by the
fact that the alarm it has occasioned has
induced many cattle owners TO sell their
stock at reduced rates, and the cattle thus
disposed Of find their way into adjoining
states, where the contagion may possibly
be carried, and whole districts ravaged by
the disease, until it becomes, as has been
the case in Europe, general cattle plague.
From some facts collected in reference to the
subject we learn that contagion was frst
known in England by the importation of a
lot Of calves from Holland. Starting from
this point, slowly at frst but more rapidly
as means for its propagation were afforded,
it spread over the length and the breadth

down to 1754-5. Notwithstanding the
deep and painful interest which this disease
excited, and the efforts made by the Gov
ernment TO stay its ravages, it was ascer-
tanned by one of the Commissioners ap.
pointed to investigate the matter, that in
Nottinghamshire alone forty thousand head

prescribed orders. During the year eighty

action Of the Government, although It did
not eradicate the disease, yet much dmin-

The N Y. Freemnn's journal on the Rev.
Olution in Sicily.

The Freeman's journal Of last week thus
speaks of affairs in Sicily:
Fuller reports have given to the move
ments of Garibaldi in Sicily greater ex-
tension than at first was supposed 1t now
seems that the Neapolitan forces behaved
at Marsha with their habitual poltroony,
and that the vessels of war of Naples des
trOyed one of Garibaldi's steamers, and cap
tured the other, only after that bold leader

had definitely abandoned them. There had
been more Sighting in Sicily. With regard
to the people so shameless and systematic
in falsifcatiOn as the Italians, it is not pos
sible even to guess whether the Sandman
reports of brilliant victories over the armies
Of Naples, or Neapoitan stories asserting
that the insurgents have been crushed at all
points, have most of truth. Probabilities
are in favor of the insurgents. Garibrldi is
soldier and man of desperate courage.
He will fight, and is capable of making his
followers fight The officers of the govern.
ment of Naples, on the other hand, have a
confirmed habit Of running away. More
over, the Sicilians hate Naples and its gov.
ernment with an intense hatred. 1t is-re.

Ireland for England for the same
causes. The Sicilians want there own gov.

tractor ou the Union Canal extension, and em-
ployed about $50 Irishmen. He had sent to
him large number of naturlizing papers, al
legged to be fraudulent, which were procured
from R. NJ. Bovine, an employee of the navy
yard. He received some Of them under franks
of Democratic members. Some two or three
hundred OF them were still 10 bis possession.
Colonel Forney and Mr. Wendall were also
examined by the Comittee. The formers testi-
fed that he had been offered by Mr. Buchanan
tie consulate at Liverpool, or the mission to
Russia or Prussia, if be would acquiesce in the
policy of the administration, but be declined.
Mr.. Wendell testified that he carried SlO OOO
in his pocket for weeks, to present to Col. For.
ney, and if necessary was authorized to increase
it to $50 900 or S25,Oo0 if he would accept

WAsPIsH-The little allusion to the testimo-
nv Of brother FLooD before the Covode Com
miitee, which we fourd going the rounds of
our exchanges and copied IN the TELEGRAPH
last week, seems to have disturbed the equanm-
ity Of our usually good natured friend. He
prints the paragraph, and gives us credit for it,
and then draws literally upon the vocabulary,
usually in vogue among our democratic friends
for epitheical adjectives, to apply to U.s., u ;h
as "weak, "knave," fool" &c. For the Zip
pant use Of such terms, we would not deny him
some credit, but must, in all Difference be al
lowed to remind him Of the trite notion, that
when impatence and iuvective take the place
of proof, the vulgar world become skeptical and
incredulous, aud he who thus seeks to clear him;
self OF an allegation, only sinks, like one aOun
dering in the mire TO greater depths. Beside;
it is vulgar, and not in accordance with gooC
breeding. If the dignity and selfrespeet o
brother FLooD has not suffered from the Tin
science of office" and an alimentary dependence
upon an exactiDg, capricious and unreasonable
old man, acting as purveyor general to the par
ty, he has only courteously to say so, and n
whit of our distinguished consideration shal
ever be withheld from, or grudgingly extende
to him.

nen. The island of Sicily once belonged
to the house of Savoy. Austria at that
time owned the island Of Sardinia, and Of
fered to exchange the last mentioned insular

chiefly acted upon Abont $3.50 of value
is taken out of the center by splitting, and
the size and weight of the original is then
made up with platina, which being of great

by the old method Of the scales and nitric
acid. Indeed, there is not known ready
means of detecting these coins. They come

CRoPs IN OHIO correspondent wri-

der date Of June 5th, 1860, says up TO
this time of writing, in our section, and all
of Southern Ohio, the prospect for a good
crop is better than any year for the past
seven. The recent storm that passed over
this region caused loss in timber, &c,
which will amount to very large sum, and
will place some farmers in pnched con-
dition. Business has been thus far in ad'
vance of the corresponding time last year
