Effects of Thunder storm and Hurricane.

Ne,o York, June l3.-Patterson, N. j.,
was visited last night with severe thunder
storm, accompanied by hurricane. Mer-
nell's flouring mills were struck by the full
force OF the wind and almost entirely de-
moished. A new three story building
was blown down, and many other buildings
were unroofed and otherwise damaged.
The losses are heavy. The Erie railroad
track was obstructed and the trains delayed
an hour.
Btnghampton, N. T., June ia ter
rifle gale, accompanied by thunder and tor
rents of rain and hail, passed over this city
between three and four o'clock yesterday
afternoon. The menagerie and aquarium
tents Of John Robinson's circus were blown
down, and the wagons tipped over while
the tents were full of people. Several per-
sons were injured but not very seriously.
The crowd of terribly frightened people in
drenching rain and pelting storm and
amidst upturned cages and shrieking ami
mails presented wild and almost appalling
scene. During the storm the lightning
struck half dozen places within the cor
porate limits !; number of framed and
many unfinished buildings were blown
down.

The National saenger fest.

81 Louis, June PA large number of
societies arrived last night, to attend the
great National Saengerfest, and Others will
reach here to-day. All preliminary ar
rangements for the festival have been com
pleted. The weather is clear and very
warm; the streets are thronged with citi-
zens and strangers, and all space in the
vicinity of Turner'S Hall, where the pro-
cession will be formed, is densely packed
with spectators. The entire city is in
holiday attire. The decorations are very
elaborate and general. Nearly every block
in the city is handsomely embellished with
notices.
The procession, which is now forming,
will be the largest and most brilliant that
has ever travelled our streets. About 100
singing societies and nearly all the local
civic associations, military companies, the
fire department, thousands of other cit-
zens on foot. on horseback and in carriages,
bands, banners, flags, notices, &C., will be
in line. Franz Abt. the distinguished
composer, arrived here last night.

CHOLERA in the EAST
POLITICAL.

The Indiana seymour-Thom A. Hendricks at
Last Consents and is sNominated-The atal
Lunge.
Indianapolis, June 12.--Mr. Hendricks,
in accepting the nomination and referring
to the Baltimore Convention, said he thought
the action of this convention forshadowed
the result of that, to the action of which he
pledged his support. He was not afraid of
one-man power, but he was afraid of the
''rings" by which General Grant is sur
rounded. Concluding, he said, f" We have
turned our backs upon the past. We stand
in the present and look to the future. The
past is lost to us. The future is ours let
us make it glorious one.o
Colonel j. Williams, of Tippecanoe coun-
ty, and the Hon. NJ. E. Kerr, of Floyd coun-
ty, were nominated as candidates for Con-
gressmen at large.
The following are the delegates at large
to the Baltimore Convention:
Martin M. Ray, j. ID. Williams, Robert
Lowery, B. w. Hanna, ID. ID. Dikeman,
Levy Sparks, d. r. Mcconnell and Horace
Corbin.
The following are the nominations for
State officers: FL.
Secretary of State, Owen M. Eddy;
Auditor, John b. Stalls; Treas urer, James
3. Ryan; Superintendent of Instruction,
Milton b. Hopkins; Attorney General, B..
w. Hanna; Clerk of Supreme Court, r. j.
Brice; Reporter of Supreme Court, F. G.
Robinson.
More About the Democratic State Convent ons
Washington, June 13.--The following is
an extract from the Indiana resol utions:
I" 1t is therefore the fixed conclusion ol
this convention, that the Democratic con.
vention to assemble in Baltimore, should
adopt the nominees of the Liberal Republic
| can convention, instead of making Other
| nominations for the Presidency and Vice
Presidency of the United States.o
The Vermont convention adopted resolu
tons endorsing the Cincinnati platform ant
favoring union with any who hold to it
principles.
In Missouri the action Of Kansas, Iowa
and Indianna was received with tremendous
applause. Resolutions were adopted in
structing the delegates to the Baltimore
convention to vote as unit against the
nomination of new candidates. Their adop-
ton was the signal for round after rount
of applause.
The Ninth District convention of Massa
chusetts elected delegates to Baltimore
but refused to instruct them to vote for The
! Cincinnati nominees.

:
General Sherman in Russian.

late mail accounts informed us of the
magnificent welcome and distinguished
treatment accorded by the Sultan of Tur-
key to General Sherman. So gratified vas
the Sultan with his visitors that in ac-
acknowledgement of the pleasure which the
visit afforded him, His Majesty placed the
famous yatch which had been presented to
him by the Viceroy at the disposal of Gen.
eral Sherman, to convey him to Sebas-
topol.
The welcome which Old Tecumseh re-
ceived in the land of the Gar was all that
could be desired. All the Russian Off
cials there extended hearty greeting to
the famous old soldier who had come to
visit the scenes made famous in history by
the events of seventeen years ago. The
terrible struggles of the Crimean war have
nearly faded from the memory, yet Sebas-
topol stands to-day in pretty much the
same condition as when the tri-color of
France and the Union Jack of England
proclaimed from the battered forts that the
Malakoff and Redan had fallen and the
power of the Russians to hold them had
failed. s
To General Sherman the scenes of the
struggles in which the armies of five nations
had contended were indeed of interest. The
fields of Inkermann and Balaklava possess
sed an attraction for him which civilian
could not appreciate. A correspondent
who accompanied the General says that he
showed thorough acquaintance with the
famous grounds which he trod for the first
time, but which study must have made him
familiar with.
After visiting all the places Of interest in
and around Sebastopol, the General, ac-
companied by his friends, set out for Yalta.
On their way thither, where they arrived
after a pleasant journey, they passed through
the demesne of Prince Woronglon and the
suburbs of the summer palace of the I'm
perial Majesty of Yalta. ss
