Still Another Tornado.

A storm of terrific fury swept over Cal
ro, Illinois, about P. NJ, July 22d. The
freight depot of the 1. c. R. R. Co. was
unroofed, the engine house blown, and
six loaded coal bosts sunk, the bank build
ing of Gov Matteson unroofed, and several
other buildings were considerably damaged.
The smoke stacks of the Cairo City Flour
ing Mill, the Planning Mill, and other man.
ufactories were blown down, and the total
damage to property is estimated at $780,
900. No lives were lost.
AND ANoTHER.-A destructive tornado
passed near Camden, N. j., the afternoon
of the 26th of July, completely destroying
the large Clinical Works of Messrs. Potts
& Klett, killing three men and injuring
several others. Nearly the entire building
was moved from its foundation and turned
round. The laborers, through fear of be-
ing buried in the ruins jumped out of the
windows, and as they did so portions of the
heavy walls fell upon them. Other prop
erty in the vicinity was much damaged.

A Child DevOured by Bears.

On Wednesday, 9th inst, a child about
four yeras of age, was carried off and de-
voured by bear in tn town Of Ellen
burgh, Clinton county, N. Y. The child,
a boy, went short distance from his faith
er's house, with brother, about ght
years old, to fish in brook. At school time
.ss yldest boy went into the house to prepare
'os school, and told his mother that his bro b.
had remained at the brook, and would re-
,urn in a short time In little while his
mother went after him, but he was not to
be found. She then called him, and heard
him cry at distance. The sound rapid
ly receded, and passed beyond hearing
The women Immediately alarmed her hus
band, who made search for the child with
ont success. The neighbors were then no.
titled, and ageneral search took place till
nightfall. Next day the alarm became
more extensive, and the search was reuew-
ed with increased energy. 1t was contin-
ued from day TO day, without avail, till tie
following Monday, when man passing a
hollow log was growled at by a black bear.
The bear was fired upon and killed. In
the log were two young bears, the missing
child's clothes, and portion of one the
legs. The cubs were dispatched, and in
the stomach of all three were found por-
tions of the devoured boy.-Ogdensbur9

eTDuring the last session of Congress DoUe-
LAS was rarely ever in his seat. The reason
given by his friends for this, and why he did
not reply 10 the assaults made upon him by
the Southern fire-eaters, was, that he was al
flicted with throat disease, that rendered him
physically unable to do SO. This was the ex-
cuse offered for him up to the close of the ses-
sion. No sooner, however, does he get the NOM
ination for President, than this throat diff
Guilty is at once removed, and he has made one or
more speeches in the open air almost every day
since. He is now travelling through the New
England States, harangueing the people at eve
ry railroad station, and we hear no complaint of
"throat disease" Virily, Mr.. D, is the prince
of demagogues, to which he has added the sin
Of HYPOCRISY by pretending to be physically
disqualified from attending to his duties as a
U. S. Senator, when driven from his seat by
fear of the attacks of his own pariiasns.

Gen. CaSS InSulled.

We have not the least respect for the po-
ltical character of Gen. Cass. He has
been at tide-water all the days of his life !;
he has trimmed sail to the breeze he tho't
the popular one; he has been an official
blood sucker whose only positive speech
has been give! give!! give!!!; he has
grown rich upon office and has boarded his
money like au old miser. But, neverthe.
less, he should have been spared an insult
from his Democratic fellows of his State.
At the State Convention held at Detroit
on the 2slb, resolution was introduced to
invite Gen. Cass-he being in that city
for the first time in three years-to address
the Convention. This was yelled down by
an overwhelming majority. The Detroit
Tribune says:
Nor had Gen. Cass friend in the Con-
vention to arise and protest against the In
dignity offered him. A subsequent unsuc-
c,Ssfui attempt was made to call up the
solu,ion. How the mighty have fallen!
aeo was a time when the leading mem
Of The Convention would have been
proud of the privilege of admission at Gen.
Cass's back doorl This affront was pre-
meditated, we have good reason to believe.
We are informed on good authority that
previous to the assembling of the Conven-
ton, an unofficial Committee waited upon
Gen. Cass, to ascertain if he would at
tend the Convention.

What has he Done!

We will give pretty thing" to any rampant
Douglas man who will point us to single act
of any consequence performed by Douglas du-
ring the session of Congress just closed. Take
any question of Importance to the people. upon
which an issue can be made, and upon which a
first-class statesman ought to occupy firm,
open. unequivocal stand, and show where Doug
las has spoken or voted for or against it. He
has kept mum, with an eye single to the Presi-
dency.
When the Senate Committees were being re-
constructed in such manner, and for such a
purpose, that any Senator with spark of man.
illness, independence or dignity wonld have been
there, and made himself heard-in other words,
when the Senate was heaping insult and indig-
nity upon Douglas-where was he? He had
the picuriSy.
When the death of Broderiek was announced
the man who had died fighting Duglas' bat
tles-when tributes were to be paid TO his mem
ory, and when Douglas, of all living men, should
have been there, among the foremost in honor
ing the memory of the martyr-where was he?
He had the didrrhea!
When the bill for the admission of Kansas
was up, where was Douglas. the champion of
Popular Sovereignty, who had divided the DEM
ocratic party upon the Kansas question? He
was paired off
When the Homestead Bill was to be voted
upon, giving TO the poor laboring man free
home, for the use and support of himelf and
his family-wbere was Douglas? He had a sore
throat!
So we might go on. Whenever a question
was up, on which Senator might show himself
to be a man, or upon which an issue might be
made before the people, or when his enemies
were handling him and his dogmas without
mercy. Douglas was invariably absent-cause,
pleurisy, diarrhea, sore throat, or paired!
No! he opened his mouth. on one occasion
that was when he introduced his invasion bill
under the pretense of protecting the Slave
States against invasions and instructions, but
in reality to gag free speech in the North, and
gain the smiles of the Southern lords, who had
been kicking and cutting him for more than a
year. Here Douglas stood Up and talked fluent
ly and bombasLically, but the effort failed in
the effect for which it was intended. We be-
lieve he also produced rehash of his Squattel
Sovereignty harangues and Magazine essays
but that likewise fell stillborn to the earth.
Such is Douglas-called by way of burlesque

Tom Ford,

A little while ago the Democratic papers an
bounced that Tom Ford had repudiated the Re-
publican party. 1t was amusing to observe what
an influential man he had suddenly become in
the estimation of Democrats. The desertion Of
Tom Ford and Lew Campbell was "a terrible
blow to to the Republicans" 1t happens how
ever that Tom Ford hasn't repudiated. but pro-
poses to take the stump for Lincoln as soon as his
health will permit. We are afraid that this de-
termination will iniure Toms reputation for Gin
fuence," so generally imputed to him by the
Democratic papers. lisa melancholy fact how
ever, that the Butler Pony has clean cut loose
from the Republican party. He couldn't stand
its carelessness upon the Polygamy question:
He had set his heart upon the destruction of one
of the twins and being disappointed went
over to the 'Merican party

8The DOUGLAS papers are full of accounts
OF enthusiastic meetings held at various points
by the friends of the Little Giant. Many of
these turn out to be held only in the Imagination
of the writer. The Editor of The Cincinnati
Enquirer was recently hoaxed with lively de-
ception of "large and enthusiastic" DOUGLAS
meeting purporting to have been held at Auro-
IA. Ia, where, the writer says, men stood "shoul-
to shoulder and bosom to BOSOM" The "bosom
to BOSOM" will do. and We are further told that
the Hon. HENRY VANNUDLEswc nrH, Mr.. SoulBB
and Esq. GREEN, made tremendous speeches. So
they did, and the Enquirer sucked it all down,
and other papers copy it. and so it goes until the
