Particulars of the Great Storm.

CHICAGO, June s.-Further reports concern,
ing the great storm Thursday night, in Central
Illinois, show an immense amount of damage
done in Peoria, Fulton, Knox, and other Coun-
ties of that section of the State. The destrue-
ton of bridges on country roads was almost
universal. In Peoria, fences and trees were
blown down, and cellars were filed with water,
Every railroad leading out of Chicago suffered
No trains left yesterday.
The Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railroad
had about four miles of track, and great
many bridges swept away: The Toledo, Peoria
and Wabash road suffered severely losing one
bridge of 80 feet and an entire road bed in a
number of places. A large force of men have
been set to work repairing and there will be but
little interruption to travel . 81
The Town of Hilton is almost entirely under
water, and barn stock are swept miles away.
The most singular circumstance of the storm is
the running up the stream of the Illinois river,
an immense volume of water, more than poured
into the stream, has created a back water ard
there is a strong current running northward.
The river last night was still rapidly rising, and
fears from this source is entertained r..

- Yesterday afternoon Elder John Vanceyo of
Alfred, Elder Frederick Evans and Eldress An
toinette Doolittle, of Mt Lebanon, N. Y, ac.
eempanied by quite a number of the brethren
and sisters of the two families, appeared at
Fluent Hall under the auspices of one of the
Spiritual Associations. The hall was complete
ly filled and many went away unable to get
seats. The exercises began with three devo-
tional songs of the sect set to strange melodies,
written in minor keys. The style of music was
by means unpleasant, thoughsit set at defiance
some of the rules of HARMONY and was invara-
bly, written in a high key. Elder John. Vance
made an introductory address, in which he re-
ferred to the courtesy with which the Shakers
had always been received in Portland. A de-
sire had been expressed IN the part of some OF
the citizens for better kuowlehge OF the rel.g-
ious views of the Shakers. This is IN ase OF
progress and if the audience should hear some
strange things he hoped they would weigh thens
carefully and decide by that reason which God
had given He then introduced Elder Frederick
Evans.
Elder Evans began by reading the sixth chap
ter of Revelations and then spoke for an hour :,
and half upon the belief of the Shakers He
spoke Of the book of Revelations as the most
reliable portion of the Scriptures, because the
translators couldn't understand it and had to
render it Uerbdtinaa they changed the other
books according to their. knowledge He de-,
MED that the Christian religion was understood;
that it was gross and had no spirituality. The
Shakers believe in two orders, of men, the nat
ural or reproductive and spiritual. Marriage
and the relation of the sexes is a complete bar
to spiritual relation to God. The Bible he con-
sidered nearer a compendium of Jewish his
tory than anything else.s The worship of the
man Jesus Christ is idolatry. The Shakers
worship Ann Lee because she was the first
woman who was imbued with the spiritual es-
sence. He lauded Spiritualism as religion--the
science of all sciences. 1t is the leaven which
is leavening the world. He afterwards made.a
running commentary on the chapter he mad
read. The white horse is Christ, and He has
begun the millennium; the red horse is war;
the black horse, commerce; the pale horse,
sickness, disease, doctors and drugs; the fifth
seal the souls of those who had died in religious
wars, crying for vengeance; the earthquake of
the sixth seal, the revolutions: the silence
spoken of in the first verse of the eighth chap
ter, the Quaker dispensation; and the white
cloud in the fourteenth chapter, the Shakers
who are not defiled with women. --.tr D..
In the evening Elder Evans and Antonette
Doolittle addressed great crowd at City Hall.
