During the first three weeks Of April the
Deer Lodge valley, Montana, experienced a
succession of violent tornadoes, lasting from
one to three hours and sweeping through mar
row belts, some Of them not more than 300 or
400 yards wide. The last one, on the 10Th
played piece of diabolism unprecedented in
the explorations of the Rocky Mountains. On
the farm of Mr.. Elliot, on Cottonwood Creek,
there is a double log house, one story, having
a roof area of 17x40 feet. On it there is dirt
roof. Elliot was engaged in re-roofDg it with
boards, and had it about Completed when the
storm began. His son, lad of dozen years,
was on one corner and he on the comb. As
the whirlwind dipped he called to his son to
Jump down, and Elliot clasped the comb pro-
lection of the boards to prevent being blown
ON the ground. Just at the instant the entire
roof, rafters and all, was lifted from the build
ing, and raising with the whirlwind, sailed
away, attaining an altitude of about 40 feet
at the greatest, and landing $50 feet from the
house, where Elliot was dumped in the con-
cussion; the roof performed a somersault over
MN, and was scattered in thousand rag
lhehts up the valley. Strange as it may APP
pear, Elliot is only slightly bruised. The lad
was unlnJured, the board root gliding out from
under h'm, leaving him sitting disconsolate
on the dllt roof, While his father was aban-
doning him at the rate OF so miles an hour.
When it is considered that the roof contained
1.200 feet OF lumber, was nailed to heavy loo
rafters, and that The whole affair was carried
1S9 feet intact, some ilea of the force of the
whirlwind may be ascertaihed.
The discussion in the Senate Monday upon
the bill to enforce the Fifteenth Amendment
was exceedingly interesting. Senator Thur
man ridcued the measure and proceeded to
show that if the amendment is part of the
Constitution, there is no necessity for this
law for no State is resisting it. The bill pro-
vides for the payment of $500 to reformers
making an inducement to commit perjury.
He said that if this bill becomes law, this
country is forever lost. Senator Morton fol-
lowed in a speech in which he announced
that there was no forgiveness for rebels, and
Mr.. Ferry denounced the sentiments uttered
by Morton as unchristian, illiberal and I'M
wise, and proceeded to show that prescription
in the South would lead to bad results and

Saturday midnight the steamer War Eagle,

A few days since an interesting little daueh-

The GOVERNMENT has asserted its author
ity over the Sault Ste. Marie Canal by reius-
ing to allow the Canadian steamer Chicora to
pass through with supplies for Fort William.
The commander of the vessel protested
against the proceedings, returned with his
vessel to the Canadian side and discharged
her cargo. A small part of the supplies, in
tended for mining company, and survey
ing party were taken through the canal on a
tug, but the military supplies are left piled up
on a wharf on the Canadian side, TO be trans
ported by land to point above the rapids
This unexpected event will delay the expedi-
ton long time, and postpone its departure
until well into summer. The undertaking is
greater than the Canadian authorities realize,
and obstacles at the outset will seriously effect
the success of the expedition this season, and
perhaps delay it until another year. The
progress of the whole affair thus far has been
notably SLOW
Since the above was in type a report has
come from Washington that the Canadian
authorities have assured our government that
peaceable settlement has been reached be-
tween the authorities and the Winnipeg NAL
contents, ard renewed application has been
made for the passage of supply vessels through
the canal, and that special session CT the
Cabinet was held to consider the application.
