On what is styled the orthodox view, we

Condemned to torment without knowledge

truer view, we should have the equally
awful sight of "A being held back through
eternity by influences which, being IN
conscious Of them, he cannot overcome.
Yet, if there be no solution of continuity,
if the soul which is here is also there,
how can there be equality in the next

ences which have modified it here. 1t
may, no doubt, escape the passions, some
of which at least are 1eShy and depart
with the fesh,-which latter may be lying
in the British Museum, a subiec, for IN
teIlectual Speculation,-but how be free
of that portion of the effect of those pas

Southey, of all sJrong passions the one

a~varice, if it has modified the mind and
soul, be lost, if there Is no solution Of
continuity Or how can the effect of a
noble impulse, say that Of self-sacritice

away? If it is taken away, what use IN

New YoRK, August 3.-United States Marshal

Ryan and Currier, dated Niagara Falls on the
Canada side, asking the Marshal's PERMISSION to
return to New York city ON their giving their
parole to appear for examination or trial, and to
hereafter refrain from committing further vio-
lations of the neutrality law. They have pressing

granting the request, as no more Cuban eXpedi-
tOns are fitting out or are likely to be fitted out

Some days since Marshal Barlow had SINH
lar application made to him personally by
by Colonel Bocarc ON behalf of Colonel Ryan.
Marshal Barlow says that the requests of the
Colonel cannot he complied with, us neither of
them is ON the footing OF the men just liberated
from Fort Lafayette, none of whom had, rs far
as known, either forfeited their bonds to appear
for examination or trial, or to refrain from vo-
loting the neutrality laws, whereas both Coils

LONDON, Aug. 3-Thc coming international

on the style of the Harvard crew. The Ne,cs

writer hopes the weather will be all that either
crew could desre-that the water will be smooth
the way clear, steamers distanced, and the best
boat be the first to pass the winning-post. The
Harvard crew were out again last evening on
the Thames. They used the boat of the London
Club on this occasion, the practice was much
better than before, and they attained higher
rate of speed Than with their own boat.

Kentucky claims to have a genuine Joyce
Heth the following account of whom is given
by the Sheriff of Clinton county, "a perfectly
reliable gentleman:"-
A few days ago, in company with Mr.. John
Irvine, one of the oldest citizens of this county
visited a very aged negro woman who resides
on his farm. Her name is Lucy Thurman. In
dubitable family records prove that she is now
1l9 years old, she having been born in Hanover
county, Va, in 1850. Born the slave of Thomas
Hooper, she became, at his DEATH the property
OF his daughter, who married John Thurman.
The latter lived many years in Cumberland
county, Ky and died there. In 1912 Mr.. John
Irvine purchased Lucy, her thirteenth and last
child being then two years old. She converses
about incidents which came under her obserya-
tion during the Revolutionary war with as much
familiarity as we do about the late war and re-
members the battle of Yorktown with special
dstinctness. While it was progressing she was
ploughlng in field within hearing of The gums
and remembers seeing bodies of troops passing
and repassing for many days. Some of them
she says, entered the field and took away the
horse she was working to her plough. She is at
present able to walk about, and looks feshy and
healthy, though her hair is very white. Until
about a year ago she could thread u needle and
sew without spectacles but her eyesight has
since been failing. Her children are scattered
and she does not know how many are living

THE TEXAS FLOODS.
Thrilling Incidents-Grent Damage


Thrilling Incidents,Great Damage TO the
Crops.
Our Texas exchanges continue to bring us ac-
counts of the unprecedented devastation occa-
stoned by the recent floods. The corn crop on
all the lower bottOmlands along the San Antonio
river, and though the crop is generally made, 1t
will prove damaged beyond computation. All
the cotton on the bottom lands, il is believed
has been inundated and in some instances, de-
stroyed. Fences have in many instances been
swept off. Many of the rancho houses on the
river banks were in water four and six feet deep,
and those in the bottoms back from the river
have been well-nigh submerged. The cattle in
the bottoms are reported in bogged-down con-
dition to quite an extent. Such was especially
the case at Graytown and vicinity. The
streams in Atascosa and Frio counties were never
known to be SO high. The damage done is
limited and so far as heard from no lives had
been lost, the people generally making hasty
flight to the hills. The AUSTIN State Gazette re-
lates the following incident:-About nine miles
below us on the river, in the neighborhood OF
Mr.. Coalson, widow lady, name not remem-
bered, with six small children, driven from her
house, which was swept by the high water, took
refuge in tree with all her little ones. As the
| flood brought along fence rails and drift-wood,
| she caught them and constructed a sort OF raft
around the tree, so that when one of her chill
dren slept and fell it caught by the platform
| below Here the heroic mother, with all her
| precious treasures, remained for twenty-four
| hours, until Mr.. Coalson constructed boat and
| took them all safely to the shore. The loss in
the valley of the Guadalupe will be very heavy,
| though cotton only partially SUBJ
merged seems to be- still grow
| ing. 1t is thought the cotton worms in the
valley were drowned out. The Bastrop AdUer-
| tiSer says that the destruction to property has
been great: many farmers have been stripped of
cotton and corn, thousands of rails, some few
houses, and any number OF cabins. Furniture
clothing, provisions, and valuables of all kinds
followed in the wake of the resstless tide.
Hundreds of freedmen were forced to take
refuge in trees, and children were lashed to
trees, in which condition they remained twenty
four hours or more before assistance was given
by parties in skiffs. But it would fill many
columns to reeite half that has been told of the
thrilling events connected with the flood that
occurred in the river bottom. The crops in that
county will be about half destroyed. strong

OF Commerce for the relief of the sufferers
