STRUCK BY LIGHTING. - On Wednesday
during the storm, willow tree standing in
the yard of MIR. Fred. Block, and within six
feet of his house, at the corner of Jefferson
and Decatur streets, Algiers, was struck by
lightning. The electric fluid passed from
the top down the trunk of the tree, severing
the largest limb, stripping off all the bark
and then penetrated into the house, break
ing off the weather boarding for some space,
and disappearing through the floor. For-
tunately the family were at the time in the
kitchen, which is apart from the house; so
there was no personal damage done.

INcENDIARIsM. The premises of Mr..
Henry Carter, known as the Brooklyn
House, at the corner of Seguin and Patter-
son streets, Algiers, were set on fire atabout
three O'Clock on Wednesday morning. The
fire was discovered by the watchman at
Mackie's ship yard, who gave the alarm and
reused the family and neighborhood. BY
the exertions of the neighbors, and particu-
larry of the colored women in the vicinity,
who brought water from the river, the fire
was subdued with small damage to the
building, and some destruction of furniture.
Everything in connection with this fire
shows, most undeniably, that it was the
work of criminal deliberation. 1t could not
possibly be accidental. The side of the
house where the fire commenced was re-
hottest from any place where fire was used,
gate, never used, on the north side of the
house, was found forced open, and under
the same side of the house was found
large'quantity of dry moss saturated with
camphine or coal oil. The affair now being
under investigation, it is not advisable to
advert at present to various circumstances
pointing out the perpetrators of this crime.

messy, Of Dubuque, accompanied by Faith
crs GowAN, Murphy. Brazel and another,
are on visit or "trip" to see Rev. Mr..
Na:le prior to his immediate departure to
Santa Fe, New Mexico. Bishop Lee, of
this Episcopalian diocese is also in the
city with Rev. Mr.. Dudley Of Pr. du
Chen. This brigade Of Rev. gentlemen
might invite the criticism Of outsiders as
to our morality, and we would confess to
alarm did we not know the excellence of
McGregor habits.
In this connection we desire to say that
Rev. Father Nagle's contemplated depar-
ture for more southern climate to bene-
fit his health, is spoken Of with very gen.
eral regret by our citizens of all denomi-
nations, and most particularly by those of
whom he has had pastoral charge; the
hope that he will return when restored to
health is consolation to this large fock
Of attendants Mt his church. Who his
successor will be remains to be seen. May
peace, happiness and health attend Father
Nagle wherever he may go.
The Baptists held their annual meeting
on Monday evening; reelected their Of.

informed that the body of man had
foated ashore miles below town. Win

point, improvised jury, as the law au-

Of violence being visible The body was
swellcd out Of shape; the face was eaten
of by fish or SO destroyed by coming in con-
tact with rocks that Identification is impos-
sible even by the nearest friend. He was
buried near by. The body was in such
state of decay as to render the burial
very speedy operation.
AS apostolic clue to his recognition we
are furnished by our obliging marshal,
with the following: 'The man was judy
to be from 40 to As years old, yellowish
mustache and whiskers, nearly six feet
high, brogan shoes, one denim and tco

From the Dubuque Herald.
The overwhelming defeat of negro suf-
frage in Michigan by the stupendous maj
GRITTY Of forty thousand, is an admonition
that the radicals will do well to consider.
1t has bearing that will be peculiarly
appreciated in Iowa this year, where we
have next to vote upon the same question.
The New York Commercial Advertiser,
republican, comments upon the result in
the following style, and what it truly says
of the effect of negro suffrage can be still
more truth. ully said of the impeachment
project:
ANOTHER Political ADMoNITIoN
The strong republican State of Michigan
has rejected negro suffrage-rejected it in
the teeth of her senators and represC nta-
tives, who stand committed up to the eyes
for it! .z
At moment that Congress has staked
all on negro suffrage at the South, paying
millions of public money to establish it.,
the republicans of Michigan, folowin.
those Of Ohio and Connecticut, spit upon
it. And even in New Yor., whore the
radicals are rampant for negro suffrage
where the Tribune charges ''cowurdice'

nesty and universal suffrage. Mr.. Gree
ley, in cowardiy and craven spirit, refus-
cd, in the constitutional convention, to
submit the colored suffrage to the people
last fall.
The struggle, SO far, has demoralized
the people, debauched congress and is
straining the government. Suffrage will
become us worthless as it is cheap. And,
ere long, suffrage, designed to preserve,
will be the means Of overthrowing repre-.
sentative government. ~ a.s,
