RELIEF FOR TEE SUFFERERS.

We have been furnished, by the Secretary
of the Harper's Ferry Relief Committee, with
a list of contributions up to Thursday last,
which we append below. From this report it
will be seen that 81 ,67955, in money, be-
sides quantity of clothing and provisions, have
been received. This, SO far is creditable in
the higest degree, but our efforts should not
stop here. Not only at Harper's Ferry but
all along the line of the Shenandoah, are
whole families who escaped from the raging
flood with naught but the clothing they bad
on their backs. And now, cold dreary winter
approaches, and they have not cent laid by
for its demands. she that giveth to the peor
lendeth to the Lord"
The following contributions in cash. clothing
and commodities have been received by the
Relief Committee of Harper's Ferry, for the
relief of the sufHerers,by the late flood:

IAIPREssIvE INCIDENT.

Some spectators, at the Bridge at Riverton,
beheld a little girl, supposed to be about
twelve OF fourteen years old, and probably the
daughter of Mr.. Blakemore, pass down the
stream, ,kneeliug upon bunch of debris,
with her arms folded and face turned upward,
and seemingly unconscious of all around. A
short distance behind, man followed upon, a
log. and was supposed to be her father.
The spectators at this point on the River
counted fifty>fou buildings, such as Houses,
Barns, Mills &C., pass down with the food,
together with vast quantities of corn; barrels
of -four. hay stacks and every conceivable
kind of Shenandoah Herald.

Feline Homeric.

The following poem from the San Francisco
Golden Era, is not only Homeric in Tyre, but
complete in itself, for it ends with total ami
hilation of the combatants.
On pine wood shed, in alley dark, where
scattered moonbeams shifting through row of
totterlng chinneys and awning torn and droop-
ing, fell, slrode back and forth with stiff and
tense drawn muscles and peculiar tread, cat

ing shed his father caught the rats, that came
in squads from street beyond Dupont, in search
of food and strange adventure.
Grim war he courted, and his twisted tail,
and spine upheaving in fantastic curve, and
claws distended, and ears fatty pressed against
head thrown back defanty told of impend-
ing strife. 81
With eyes agleam, and screechipg blasts of
war, and steps as silent as the falling dew, young
Norval crept along the splintered edge, and
ga2ed moment through the darkness down,
with a tail awag triumphantly. E
Then, with an imprecation and growl-
perhaps an oath in direct vengeance hissed-
he started back, and crooked In body like a
letter S, or rather like . inverted, stood in
fierce expectancy

ears aslant, and open mouth in which TWO
O. rows OF fangs stood forth in sharp and dread
Conformity, slap up post from out the dark

A dreadful tocsin of Internal strife, young
Norva uttered, then with face unblanched
and moustache standing raight before his
nose, and tail flung wildly to the passing
breeze, stepped back in cautious invitation to
the foe
Approaching each other, and with prepare
tionS Dire. each cat surveyed the vantage of
the field. Around they walked, with tails up
q lifted and backs high in the air, while FROM
their mouths in accents kissing with consuming
rage. dropped hriei but awful sentences of hate
Twice around the roof they went In circle,
each eye upon the fee intenty bent then side

me, who saw the conflict from the window
