From the gainesville Telegraph:
kThe following isan about the late ST.
and its effects: The great quar- -Irm
rain fallen has raised all r. lily OF
Grand River is higher tn e streams;

SnJ K of water. Messrs. Boynton
sir -Lrtz have been quite unfortunate
zee they came into possession of Geauga
1 Mills-having lost the dam when the ice
broke up in the spring, and now again
when they had half ola new one built
the food has swept away. Part of the
bridge and part of the dam at Stickney's
mills was carried away by the food. The
Kirkland mill dam is also gone. The vi
olence of the storm was felt to a great ex-
tent in all parts of Lake eounty-doing
considerable damage to vineyards, fruit
trees, and the growing crops. The de-
%struction of the newly shorn sheep in this
county is immense. We hear Of several
farmers who have lost from fifty TO one
hundred ~sheep-having persisted from the
severe cold. Indeed there is hardly a
sheep-grower in this country but has lost
more or less sheep.
A correspondent from the town of
Thompson says that the late cold storm
has made sad havoc among the recently
sheared sheep, and especially among the
ewes. N. Mosely, Esq, lost one hundred
or more; Mr.. Lafayette Warren & Broth
er, between so and SO; Mr.. Augustus
Tillotson, 10; and many others more or
less. 1t is estimated by some that not less
than 1000 have died in Thompson and
vicinity, and a like number in Middle
field. No doubt the loss through this
section of the country is immense.
Mr.. Andrew Basquin, of Thompson,
while out squirrel-hunting a few days
since, with a revolving rifle, accidentally
discharged his piece while his hand was
over the barrel, and one of his fingers was
torn oil.
C. L. Hoyt, so long and Familiarity
as the Teller of the Bank of Geauga, and
more recently of the First National Bank
of gainesville, died on Monday morning
last, aged about So years.
On Wednesday night last John Stick
ney, Esq of Concord, had two horses, s
buggy, harnesses, and other articles stolen
fromh his premises.

The Price Of Wool.

The Sandusky Register says The
new clip is coming in well put up and in
good condition. The tendency of the
market is firm, and East a little upward.
Prices rule here from fifty to ffty-three
cents.
The Mansfield Herald says Con sid
cradle wool is coming to town, although a
good many farmers are holding back in
hopes of 8 higher price. We hear of
sales ranging from forty-fve to fifty-fve
cents. The clip this season in this county
has been quite large.
The Clyde Times says The wool
market does not appear to be fully open
vet very little is being sold, and prices
see as vet, not much advanced by COM
petition. Fifty cents per pound is the
ruling price for best grades. Some lots
have been sold in this county, as high as
ffty-two cents. Wool growers generally,
We believe ara disposed TO hold on for q
while in hopes ofhigher prices.
The Carrolton Press says:-We are
authorized TO say that from s. to 60 cents
per pound will be paid by our merchants,
for good wool But wool of an inferior
ouality-or in bad condition, will be
graded in price at what it is worth.

From the Akron Beacon

The storm of Sunday and Monday
caused the death of a number of newly

less, the number lost in this county alone,
reaching, undoubtedly, many thousands.

A Pen Picture Of Thaddeus stevens.

A Pen Picture of Thaddeus Stevens.
Washington Correspondence Of the New York
independent.
Thaddeus Stevens is just coming in from
his committee-room, and looks SO feeble,
the great old man, it makes me sorry.
The men abroad who assail him with fe-
rocity, if they could sec him now, would
be quite disarmed. His spirit is not
bated, his sarcasm cuts as keenly as ever,
his wit flashes as brightly, his great intel
lect seems in no wise dimmed yet the
hand of Time lies heavy upon him. The
will which never swerves, which always
coBquers and rules men, is powerless to
resist the pressure of time and the intirm-
ity of age. Although no casual observer
would think it, Thaddeus Stevens is oyer
seventy years Of age. A comedy wig rpbs
him of the hpary eorWn which ALWAYS
halloWs the head of age. His face IN oHt-
line approaches the Indian type. The
square pereeptive brow, the d6eply-set
eyes, the high cheek bones, the broad jaw
and saturnine mouth are most marked,
The face in ropose is stern, but not saw
ago, The "sardonic smile that we road
so much about is a very human and kind
" smile after all. Thaddeus Stevens in
imitable sarcasm and wit seem ngfsiy in
/ ieiiectual gifts, flames of the head, free
from all smoke of personal malice, He
| will say the mast savage things of a mans
acts or opinions, without one emotion of
ill-will toward the man. He will ami
hilate a member in a speech, and then,
clapping him on the shoulder, ask the
DISCONNECTED brother to go with him 10

whom no has lifted from poverty and OBJ
security to give them help and a motiYe

power in the nation, a leader in the
House, marshsling in the van the hosts
of liberty. No a is more eagerly list
enedtO o. No man, perhaps, would be SO
positively missed if he were to pass for
ever from the Congressional Hall. He
has stood here so long, his intellect is SO
powerful, his personality so positive, his

full, his memory will not pass away with
his presence, nor his name with his gen.

the old lion of the House is fighting his

that he is at last worstsd by Tlme-that
even no has found a %cOnquerer. To have

A NOBLE CREED.
Theological Opinions of John G..
Whittier.

John G. Whittier, the Quaker poet,
finding himself quoted as authority fer
certain theological opinions, writes to the
Friend, the organ of his denomination
Painfully sensible of my own moral
infrmities and liabilities to error, l in
stinctively shrink from assuming the
office of teacher and guide of others. l
simply wish to say that my ground of
hope for myself and for humanity is in
that Divine fullness of love which was
manifested in the life, teachings and self
sacrifice of Christ-the Way, the Truth,
and the Life. In the infinite mercy of
God so revealed, and not in any work or
merit of our nature, 1 reverently, humbly,
yet very hopefully trust. 1 regard Chris
tianity as a life rather than a creed, and,
in judging of my fellow-men, 1 can use no
other standard than that which our Lord
and Master has given US: by their fruits
We shall know them The only ortho-
doxy that l am specially interested in is
that of life and practice. On the awful
and solemn theme of human destiny 1
dare not dogmatize but wait the unfold
ing of the great mystery in the firm faith
that, whatever may be our particular al
lotment, God will do the best that is pos
sible for all"

Maine responds to Ohio with a declara-
ton from the Unionists of that grand
state even more emphatic and radical than
that adopted by our own state conven-
ton. The Republicans of Maine declare
in convention sgsinst~ distinctions of color
or race in political rights. They endorse
Congress and declare for the Reconstruc-
ton Amendment. On this platform, and
under the lead of that gallant soldier
General Chamberlain, they car sweep the
