The FLORIDA ToRNADo.-On Saturday last,
the City of Jacksonville, Florida, was visited
by one of the most terrible storms ever known
in that region. 1t began at one O'Clock In the
afternoon, and striking Camp Moony, six miles
west Of the city, it started on Its destructive
path eastward. In the distance Of mile four
dwellings, besides outbuildlngs, trees, &C.,
were torn from their places by the violence Of
the winds and destroyed. The house Of Mr.. g..
Thomas was completely carried away, leaving
him and his wife both badly injured among
the ruins. Two miles west Of the city color
ed woman was blown over fifty rods. A house
was also here blown away, killing woman
named Virgins who was within. At the next
point MT. Lercey's house was totally destroy
ed, his daughter being killed outright. An
old colored woman was also blown up In o
pine tree, where she lodged until rescued next
morning, with fatal injuries. The track Of the
tornado seemed to be about two hundred
yards wide, and Its whole fury
seemed concentrated within this limit.
Mr.. B. Godfrey's new building on
the banks of the st. Johns was completely de-
mollshed. Miss Godfrey was terribly injured,
and Jerry Harrison, colored man, was
crushed to death. The further course Of the
tornado was marked by large trees uprooted,
the ruins of houses and the carcasses of mules,
horses and cattle. In the city the greatest
CONSERVATION prevailed, as the houses rocked
to and fro With the violence of the wind, and
many persons vacated their houses preferrlng
to brave the rgors of the storm than to risk
being crushed beneath the falling ruins. For
tunately, however, the tornado did not pass
directly through the city, and which did not
suffer very materially. The casualties, how.
ever, were numerous from falling tiles, chin.
neys, &c. Mr. Lang was struck on the head
by the falling sign of "The Forty Thieves" and
severely Injured. From all accounts the storm
wss equal to the hurricanes Of the Weat In
dies. and Jacksonville has had a most provi-
Dental escape.

The Kansas City Times, edited by ek-
Confederate officers, has been one of the
most ardent ofjournals favoring the Possum
policy. 1t now says, in connection With
the late stirring speech Of Mr.. VOORHEES,
"Should the Northern Democracy, deaf
alike to the interests of the party and the
suferings of the South, force nomination
at Baltimore, the Southern Democracy
will refuse to obey the command there made
official, or they will make the best terms
possible with Grant, and vote for him solid.
If they think Greeley can be elected, even
after the Baltimore blow, then It is Greeley.
If they think otherwise, then it is Grant,
beyond the possibility of doubt"

CONDITION OF THE STATE.

As usual many fires have broken out in
grain fields and the mountains, destroying
grain and timber to considerable extent.
In the vicinity of Gilroy many hundred of
acres of wheat were destroyed last week
in this way, and in Napa fires have ragged
In tine hills, destroying feed, fences, cord
wood, etc.
In Santa Barbara new discoveries of
gold placers have been made in the San
Felisiara District, which the Ventura
Signal thinks may amount to something.
"The gold" it says, "is found in coarse
grains, and in the early tunes large amounts
at it were secured by dry washing An
old miner who has lived there many years,
says that in the early days he had seen
over hundred Californians and Mexicans
seated on theinhlapkets of a Sunday morn
ing, with heaps of the, shining dust at
their sides, playing monte. Several relics
of early times Shave lately been found at
these places, gape to prove that they were
probably known and worked century ago.
Some of the paper are urging the farmers
to give up buying sacks for their grain:
and to compel spectators and dealers to
purchase the grain in bulk and sack it
themselves or arrange for moving and ship
ping it in bulk. At the present high
prices fer sacks it is certainly hard on the
farmers to be compelled to use them.
Just now labor is very scarce-the
rush of the harvest is on us, aud the men
are needed to gather in the crops. H.
dians and Cinnamon are welcomed to the
grainGelds, and so would be an army of
balloons, if they understood binding sheaves
and handling pitchforka. The work is
very hard, however, and white men who
can avoid 1t shrink from going to the
scorched fields these broiling hot days
The Rural Press learns that the attempts
to grow tea in California as an article of
profit have proved failures. The Ell
Dorado experiment, from which so much
was expected, resulted in great pecuniary
loss, and the plants would not grow either,
while the same poor success attended the
experiments in Caistoga 1t is not unlike
ly that some portions of the State will yet
produce tea, but the result of these expert.
ments will retard tea culture in California
for many years.
There isn't much doing in stocks just
now. Several attempts have been made to
patch up the bottom of the market, but il
wouldn't hold together, and all is fat again
