The RePuf Jean party, that hopes and ex-
poets to succeed in the Presidential cleo
ton, will, if it shall succeed, exercise a
power, an evil power, that win destroy the
nation. The nation, in radical hands, can't
pay the debt that the radical party has con
tracted: Still less can it pay the debt that
the radical party Is all the time contracting.
And much less, far much less, can it pay
the debt that the radical party will contract
if it shall be again in power, Let the rad
ical party be again iP-fuH power and in full
swing as it has been in this country during
the last eight years, and the wealth of the
world couldD't pay it.-Lou. Jour.

TO Cotton Shippers.

We print the following for the benefit of
the cOttOn-shippers who may not be posted
well on such matters. Cotton shipped this
season does not require. as therefore,, me-
talie tag to show that the tax has been paid.
Congress has abolished the tax. Every
bale. however, should have paper tag fas-
tened on the end containing the marks, and
showing to whom to where the bale is ship
ped. A strict observance of this suggestion
will be sure to prevent loss and detention Of
the shipments.-U .. &c f.

AS soon as the piOus folks who have John
Allen, the ''wickedest man in New York, :"
in hand, succeed in effectuallY converting
him from the error ofhis ways. it is pro-
posed to leteu to them on contract the re-
formation of Ben Butler, which, if success
full, is to be followed by that of Parson
Brownlow. They. expect to get through
with Allen in the course of month. But
ler's case, it is estimated, will require
twice that time, and BroWnlow's double
that time.

best conducted country newspaper in the
State. Established as six column paper.

size, in January, 1854. On making that en-.

We have only two small requests to make Of

is that subscribers in arrears will pay up to

The Flood in Baltimore.

Baltimore and vicinity was visited on Fri
day OF last week by one of the most dcsruc
tive floods ever experienced in the history
of the State. A rain storm set in about 2
o'clock ON Friday morning, which increased
to something like deluge by o clock, con-
tinulng to pour till after l o'clock. The
water in Jones Falls-a large stream pass
ing through Baltimore-rose till it overlooked
the banks, filling some of the streets nearly
to the top Of the lamp.posts. This flood
pouring through the heart of the city, swept
houses, bridges and everything else before
1t. Millions of property were destroyed,
ana so rapidly was the rise of the water that
a number OF persons were drowned. But
three bridges III the lower part of the city
remain, Gay street, Baltimore street, and
Pratt street bridges, and these were So dam.
aged that only pedestrians could use them.
After the flood had subsidized, which it did
by clock, the scenes of suffering and
distress were appalling, such as cannot be
described. Many lost children, brothers,
sisters, wives, husbands, swept away and
drowned in the flood, while hundreds more
lost their all. Furniture, houses, shops
and stores were carried away by the rushing
torrent.
The loss in bridgcs.aonc to the city is es.
tmatcd at $3OOOG0, while the destruction
OF private property, it is supposed, will
reach $3,00O,OO0.
The Baltimore and Ohio and Northern
Central ha0oad also sustained great dam.
age IN the washing away of bridge. and
damage to the track.
At Ellicotts Mills the destruction of bro.
perry and loss Of life were even greater than
in Baltimore. Thirty dwelling houses were
washed away and torythree lives lost

ihy,; The loss Of property at Ellcott $
Mills is estimated at Il million dollars.
The Hood IN Montgomery county was also
very destructive, great deal of farm stock
aud produce having been washed away, as
well as roads and bridges destroyed.
The suffering and loss caused by the flood
is exciting the deepest sympathy throughout
the country, and contributions for the relief
OF the unfortunate victims are being raised.
In Philadelpllia Mr.. Childs, Of the Lclger,
started Il subscription on Saturday, heading
the list with Il $1,000. The City Councils Of
Baitm, re have made large appropriations
to repair the damage to the city and for the
relief OF the suffering inhabitants.
