A Tornado and Water Spout on the Ohio
River.

The Louisville Courier gives an account
of destructive hurricane that swept across
Kentucky above Wickliff's landing, thirty
i've miles up the river, on Wednesday
afternoon. While the Leonora was moored
at the landing, about 43 O'Clock, the pilot
on duty saw two immense clouds come to-
gether short distance off. In few min
utes hurricane, rendered still more awful
by deafening thunder and binding light
ming rushed with indescribable fury across
the river just above the landing. Imme-
diately on reaching the stream the fierce
tornado lifted a great body of the water
and hurled it along over the bank, delug-
ing the vicinity and exciting the utmost
terror among the people.
The path of the hurricane was about O
hundred yards in width. Throughout this
track for miles on both sides of the river
the devastation was complete Houses,
trees, fences, &C., were uptorn ard scatter
ed like straws in all directions. The air
was densely filled with huge limbs of trees
ana other fragments, and the whole region
OF the storm was IN q state of chaos. In
the general destruction the dwelling of a
Mr.. Goeshler was blown down, and that
OF David Hogan was completely razed. In
the latter house were four or five persons,
all of whom were more or less Injured
SID. Lees barn and new dwelling near
by were unroofed. A lookout station at
the landing was blown entirely away,
Although the Leonora lay some distance
below the line of the main hurricane, all
Of her skylights were shattered and the
glass hurled into the cabin, creating wild
panic among the passengers. If the boat
had been within full range of the squalI
she would have gone up the spout teetotal-
ly. The most skilful pilot could not have
saved her. This terrific blast was followed
by rain that fell in torrents and flooded
the whole region around. It is difficult to
estimate the extent of the injury suffered
by the victims of this storm, but it is GER
tainly very great.

An Expedition TO Cuba.

In our local columns will be found the
full details of the sailing Of large stea-
mer, supposed to be the Arago, from this
port, with nearly thousand armed men on
board, to help the Cubaps in their revolt
against the Spanish power.
This is really startling news
Everything was done openly. The vol
unteers went On board the Steamship with
their muskets over their shoulders, after
having partaken OF dinner ut public
hotel There Was nc attempt made by the
United States authorities to put stop to
the expedition, although the adminis!ra-
tion must have been aware of it, as rela-
tives of some of the young men on board
teleSraphed to Secretary Fish to have the
vessel stopped.
The United States authorities here ex-
cuse themselves on the ground that, as
President Grant has as yet issued no neau-
trality proclamation, they are not supposed
to know that any insnrrection prevails in
Cuba or anywhere else. Heretofore it has
been the invariable practice OF our Presi-
dents, when any fihbusteripg expedition
was on foot, to promptly announce the in
tention of the administration to enforce the
neutrality laws. That President Grant has
SO far neglected to do so is, to say the least
significant
If other expeditions are allowed to de-
part in the same way as that which sailed
in the Arago yesterday, war with Spain
cannot be very far distant. sa- -

An Important Animation.

The Philadelphia North American, an
intensely radical sheet, makes the follow
ing admission concerning the financial
situation:
We have for several years past been OF
the opinion that very much of the trouble
about getting money for the regular pur-
poses of trade is clearly traceable to the
immense sums invested i'll Government Sc
curities, and to the fact that the interest
on gold bonds is larger than can be legally
obtained by loaning money on notes of
hand. This has been the opinion, also, of
some OF the ablest bankers and fnanciers
in the country, from whom, indeed, we
ourselves derive it; and this belief has in
duced the various attempts to consolidate
the national debt at lower rate of inter
est. Many of those who have clamored
loudest against these patriotic efforts have
been themselves enguIfed in bankruptcy by
sudden revulsions largely owing to this
cause, while others who have escaped ruin
have sustained numerous heavy losses
from the same causes.

Trial of Miss CairneS for Murder---
TaIeSmen Summoned.

BELAn;, Hartford county, Nd, May o.
Yesterday was set apart by our court for
the trial of Martha Jane Cairnes, indicted
for the murder of Nicholas McComas, Of
James, but on account of the absence of
some important witnesses, the trial was
deferred until to-day. BY order of the
court the sheriff summoned fifty talesmen,
from whom and the regular jury jury is
expected to be formed at an early hour to-
day. Between sixty and seventy witnesses
have been summoned in this case Attor-
ney Gen. Jones assists with the prosecu
tion, and 81. W. Archer, II. d. Farnandis
and Fl. Stump, Jr., defend the prisoner.
Public opinion is divided on the matter,
but rather in favor of Miss Cairnes. The
court room during the trial will, in all
probability, be thronged, as intense inter
est is manifested by the public. 1t will
be recollected that Miss Cairnes shot Nc
Comas three or four weeks ago at Jarretts-
vile, because OF his alleged seduction OF
her and persistent refusal to marry her.

Advertising as a Fine Art.

The reading public have recently been
made acquainted with Mr.. Hembold-the
Buchu man" as he is called-throuDh
his generous donation of forty thousand
dollars to the Democratic campaign fund,
and still further by his offer to bet q mil
lion dollars on the election of Seymour
and Blair. An exchange asks and answers
the question, "Where did this mans mo-
ney come from ?" and says:
"Five years ago Hembold was poor
man, but full of business tact and shrewd-
ness, and resolved not to remain poor. He
cast about and found the philosophers
stone in tho barrels of printing ink there
was turned out from the manufactures of
the north, and distributed to every portion
of the country. This he availed himself
of, and, by a judicious but most liberal
system of advertising, chiefly in the ne VS.
papers, has, In a very brief period, amass-
ed fortune. The more he spent the
greater his gains, until his bills now
amount to hundreds of thousands, and his
receipts. perhaps, millions. Nor was it
mere experiment with him. He gathered
wisdom from the experience Of others. In
casting his eye over the business world
where he saw q meagre few who had amass-
ed fortunes in q quiet sort of q way, he
also saw that in nearly every instance
where man had anything worth having,
and advertised it freely, he had grown to
wealth and influence in the world. He
had, therefore, only to follow in the foot
steps of his predecessors, and he did it
wisely and WELL"
Our Cincinnati merchants have yet to
learn the value and importance of judicious
advertising; they have yet to be taught the
truth of what Horace Greeley said long
ago, that the man who paid more for store
rent than for advertising was ignorant of
half his business. This is a reading age and
country, and people expect to find every
thing worth knowing in the columns of q
tirst.class daily newspaper.-Cincinnati

A Recipe Worth one Thousand Dollars

The Ohio Cultivator says the following
recipe is worth $1,000 to every house
keeper:
Take one pound of sal soda and a half
pound of unslecked lime, and put them in
a gallon of water, boil twenty minutes, let
it stand till cool, then drain off and put in
a small jug or jar, soak your dirty clothes
over night, or until they are wet through.
then wiring them and rub on plenty of
soap, and in one boiler of clothes well
covered with water, add one tea cup full
of the washing fluid boil half an hour
briskly, then wash them thoroughly with
suds, rinse, and your clothes will look bet
ter than by the old way of washing twice
before boiling. This is an invaluable re-
cipe, and every poor, tired woman should
trv it.

counties will pay to the Sherfs three per cent.
the premiums &c. When the returns shall be
made to the Treasury, if it shall appear that the
aggregate amount paid by all the agents of any

cipal agent of the company.
