THE STORM AT DULUTH.-DU-
BUoUE, Iowa, November lo'-During
the heavy gale which prevailed last
night at Duluth, Mimi, the storm is rer-
resented as the severest ever known IN
that section. Elevators, freight depots,
and number of private residences on
Minnesota point where badly damaged
by the washing away of the breakwater,
the sea rising fifteen inches higher
than ever known before. The steamer
St. Paul, moored at the elevator docks,
was cut loose from her mooring, but
dared not put out, so furious was the
sea. She soon after grounded. The
schooner Francis Palms, of Detroit,
laden with coal, is total wreck. The
schooner Sweetheart, also reported
wrecked, escaped with slight damage.
EsCANABA Mich, Nov. 10. "A ter
rife storm has prevailed since yesterday
noon, the wind blowing a perfect gale
all the Afternoon, and to day we have a
terrible snow storm. Fourteen inches
of snow is reported at Negaunee. The

Ell. Lint-men report over hundred
breaks in the wire between thia point

We shall probably have no Geographic
communication for several days. A
large number of ore vessels are detaln-

to cease. We expect to hear of many
marine disasters

THE PoPE-Though the family of
Mastar-Ferrefti is noted for longevity,
the death Of the Count Gaetano leaves
the Pope alone in his generation. Re-
ports regarding bis ill-health of course
abound as usual. There, nevertheless
IN the present instance, seems to be
some foundation for them. He no
longer walks with form erect and that
magnificent presence which those who
have once seen him pass through St.
Peters can never forget. On the
contrary he stoops and requires the as
slstance of a cane, while the quick firm
step that characterized his gait until
quite recently, is no longer apparent.
His respiration is attended with diff
Guilty, especially during the night. His
rest is greatly disturbed, and he is much
troubled with sleeplessness. Sometimes
it is said, he awakens much agitated,
and rings instantly for his special at.
tendant. The latter sleeps directly
over the Pontlfical chamber rarely
ever disrobiDg himself, lest he should
thereby be delayed in responding to
the summons of his august master
The Holy Father has not yet Invested
himself Of the idea that he will die

New Crop.--Connecticut and Massa-
chusetts- Of the damage done in these
localities by pole-sweat and rot, as men
toned in our last circular, we have
heard but little of late has possibly the
cool weather which prevailed during
a part of last month has effectually
checked its progress.
From this State we have no other in
formation than that given in our asst
issue. In Pennsylvania the crop is
still estimated at 10000 cases, ry
fine quality, with spIinkling of injury
by worms,
From Ohio we have had a letter from
a reliable party, indorsing our opinion
as expressed In our last circular, both
as to quantity and quality but with
ahat difference that the crop will be as
general thing uneaven, and our cor
respondent further hollis that the fine
grades will be superior to those of last
year. Wisconsin has raised nearly Is
900 cases of good but uneven tobacco.
An attempt to depreciate it in this
market has utterly failed

WISCONSIN ToBAooo.-J. E. Wight
of North Hatfield, observes the New
England Homestead, who raises tobac-
co, and also buys quite largely, reports
that in his trip West recently he found
the crop IN Wisconsin to be fine, but
not so extensive as it was last wear.
He thinks it will fall short about fifteen
thousand cases. making the amount this
year to be about twenty-five thousand
cases.in the State. The reason given
for better quality is that they are using
more stable manure and erecting good
sheds for curing.

PRESIDENT GRANTS SECOND
TERN.

Fewer Presidents have served see
ond terms than many suppose. Only
seven Presidents have been reelected
namely Washington, Jefferson, Madl-
SON. Monroe, Jackson, Lincoln and
Grant. Mr.. Lincoln having been as
sassinated shortly after his re-inauSur-
alton in 1865, no pres dent has filled
second term since Jackson.
By yirture of his age, General Grant
being vet in the prime of life, he has
it in his power to make his second term
an era Of peace and good will through
out the land. No motive can exist to
remove him by violence, reelected q
he has been by large majority OF The
popular vote. The strong sup port hi
received in the South shov.s the IN
sectional character of hls endorsement
and indicates the unit ed purpose of the
people in electing him a second time
Should such calamity, however, oc
cur as the removal by death of Gener
al Grant from the presidential chaiI
his place would be we'll filled by Henry
Wilson, a man of decided capacity ano
wide experience in public affairs. The
public confidence in his ability to ad
minister the affairs of the Government
would be as firm as it is in Genera
Grant. Let us hope, hewever, that
there will be no occasion to test his
capacity in this direction.

ACCOUNTING FOR DEFEAT. = A
great many speculations are rife among
the defeated coalitionists to account for
their defeat and utter discontinue in
the late election, and many different
reasons are produced in explanation Of
matters. At consultation meeting of
Democrats and Liberals in Columbus,
Ohio, November Is, Senator Thurman
said that perhaps 95 per cent. Of the
democrats and large number of citizens
heretofore republicans voted for Greeley.
But it was evident he also said that large
body of electors stayed away from the
polls, every one of whom was an oppo-
nent of Grant Thurman thinks the
mournful fact that some Democrats
and Liberals did vote for Grant greatly
to be regretted, but they are not to be
scalped this time. The astoni shing
vote given to Gen. Grant is a sumner
to the opposition and with the combi-
nations at work against Grant the re-
suit is no doubt to them as marvellous
as it is significant

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.

President Grant believes in Civil
Service Reform, despite the attempts
of his enemies during the recent can
vass to show his insincerity towards
the principle. In the case of the ap-
pointment of postmaster at Phlladel-
phia the President has announced that
he will be guided by an observance of
the new civil service rules and not heed
the clamorings of the politicians. The
Postmaster of Philadelphia having re-
signed the position is vacant. The
appointment of a Mr.. Truman. an
active Republican politician, is urged
by Senator Cameron, General Hartrantt
and number of the political magnates
of Philadelphia. Under the new civil
service law the deputy Postmaster, Mr..
Fairman, would be entitled to the ap
pointment provided he is we'll qualified
for the position, and tie President
evinces a strong desire to have him
the Postmaster
In taking this position in favor Of
Civil Service Reform President Grant
carries out one of the principles for the
guidance Of the Republican party laid
down in the Philadelphia platform,
and for this determination he should
receive the thanks of the whole coun-
try. As far as he is concerned he is
determined that so long as Civil Ser
vice Reform is the law it shall not be
a myth in his hands, but shall be put
into practical effect in making appoint
ments to Office

The PHILADELPHIA Posi- OFFICE
"A special from Washington to the
New York E0ening Post says:
ga delegation of prominent Phila-
delphia politicians, headed by Senator
Comeron and Governor Hartranft, watt
ed upon the President this morning to
ask the appointment Of George True
man as Postmaster Of Philadelphia.
Mayor Stockley, in behalf of the dele
cation, presented the claims of Mr..
Trueman for the position, saying that
he had been very effective in keeping
the Republican party in Philadelphia
together, which resulted in giving a
magnificent victory on the 9Th of No
vember."
The President said, in reply, that he
had committed himself to the policy of
Civil Service Reform, and that the Re-
publican party, in its National Plat
form, had declared in its favor, and
that whenever it was possible to Sc
cure a good appointment under the
Civil Service rules, he felt it to be
public duty to make selection accord
ingly. AS rule, he would endeavor
to reward efficiency on the part of SUBJ
ordinates in positions of public trust,
but where it should appear that he
could secure better appointment by
going outside of the the Civil Service,
then he should not hesitate to do so.
In the present case, Mr.. Fairman, the
Deputy Postmaster, was highly rec
commended and in every way as qualified
for the position, and it was not denied
that by his appointment of Govern
ment would secure faithful and effici-
emf officer Under these circumstances,
therefore, he felt he could not do
otherwise than to promote Mr.. Fairman
to the place to be made vacant by the
resignation of General Bingham, but
would take into consideration all that
have beeen said in favor of Mr.. True
man.
The delegation thereupon withdrew,
and will leave for home this afternoon.
fully satisfied that Mr.. Fairman will be
appointed.

New YORK, Nov. 17.-The London
Times of the 9th, in an editorial on the
floods in Italy says "Two-thirds of
the province Of Mautua aud one-third
that of Ferrara have been flooded.
More than 10000 families are house
less. Vast tracts in the territori es of
Parma, Reggie and Modeua are turned
into lakes, on the surface of which may
be seen the tops Of trees, roots of
houses and floating carcasses of drown
ed cattle Not only solid barns and
substantial farmhouses peculiar to those
districts, but even churches have in
many cases, been unable to withstand
the violence of the floods. Many hu-
man beings have persisted, both of those
who allowed themselves to be caught
within the lower buildings and of those
who fled for safety to the loftier edifces
But hardly less wretched is the con
dition of the survivors. The cattle
they have saved from the flood are
perishing from want Of fodder. They
themselves are thrown for sustensnce
on the peighbors' charity. The >har-
vest they have lately garnered and the
fields they have just sown are laid
waste What was a month ago the
richest of plains is now chaotic marsh,
not unlikely to bear for many years the
marks of few hours havoc. Nor are
the ravages limited to the lower lands
of the Pc, but all around one vast level
and up to the mountain side devastation
extends The rivers are everywhere
breaking bounds, and waters are. out
throughout the peninsula. The dis
tress is immense, and threatens to ex
haust the ordinary resources of public
