which it is proposed to connect Pennsgrove, on
the opposite side of the river, with the West Jer

located between Woodbury. and Paulsboro, in
Gloucester county, running directly from Penns-
grove. The northern terminus will connect with
the West Jersey Railroad near the junction of
the Swedesboro Railroad. The work of construc-
ton will soon commence, 1t il stated, nasmuch

Goodbye? good-bye?'' the driver said,

And the coachman bowed his handsome head
''Be good to yourself my girl-my girl!
All many fond goodbye have heard,
From many an aching heart;
And many friendly farewell word,
When strangers come to part
And I've heard a thousand merry quips,
And many senseless joke;
And many feryent prayer from lips
That all a-tremble spoke
And many bit Of good advice,
In smooth proverbial phrase
And many a wisI-of little price
For health and happy days;

XII. Of the constitution of the National

Grange, and ask the Worthy Master of the
National Grange to revoke its charter upon
proof OF guilt after hearing.

But what will you do, Worthy Fos-
sill, with Grange whose members re-
fuse s'to take an active and prominent
part in moulding the institutions and
laws of our country p Hey, Brother
Parsons, will you excommunicatet them?
Speak up. "Sauce for the goose is
sauce for the gander,' you know; and
if one part Of Worthy Master Adams
letter is good why not the rest Of it !?
We would suggest to the Oranges of
the State to discuss these questions
l. Would it be right to vote for the
devil for office if he was regularly NOM
mated by either political party!
2. Would it be right to insist that
none bat Changers should be elected to
Congress, as suggested by Master Par
sons at Northfeld
3. IF the tax-gatherers took all a
farmer had, would it be right for him
to say anything about it in his Grange!
Then let Master Parsons suspend.
and we will try it and him both before
the National Grange.

Grand Master Adams of the Ma

in the Grange, and Worthy Master
Adams guardedly replies:
{" have no doubt but the Master of your
State Grange will promptly apply the cor
rection to any subordinate Grange which so
far torgets its constitutional Obligations as

agree with you that our Order must not, as

And, says Abenethy, Now let Dom
nelly howl" There is no necessity for us
to ''howl." This is precisely the doctrine
we have been preaching all along. We
don't want the grange to take part in
in partisan politics" or to become a
political organization. We defined
one position in this regard in our first
number, when he said
SIN our judgment the Grange has no
right to talk politics as politics no
right to hold conventions or make nom
nations
But we took the ground that the
Grange had perfect right to discuss
all the great governmental and econom-
ic questions which s'underlie all pol

this is evidently the view now held by
Master Adams, for he says:

members will be true to their duties as

''On Friday last session of the coun-

transacting the business for which they
were called together, an informal meet

sons were in consultation, some Of whom
were Republicans, and some Of the Lib

corruption of the reigning dynasty, in
cluding back pay and monop-

resolutions were offered, rebuking
the action Of the Republican Conven.

a circular call for mass convention

THE FLOOD.
The Scene at Butchers Run..-
Searching for the Dead.-.NO
MANNED or Wounded, only Dead
or Missing.

PITTSBURGH, July 20.-Thousands Of
people are again visiting the scene of
the recent great disaster to-day, which
has been the case since it's occurrence.
Butcher Run last evening. as the
shadows crept over the sad precincts,
the scene was dismal one. The thou
sands of visitors who had crowded
the ruins during the day had turned
from the scene Of death and destruc-
tion, and in some portions of the dis
trict reigned the silence Of the tomb.
In others the careless voices Of child
ren sounded in close proximity to their
devastated homes, which are now in
heaps of shapeless ruins, which doubt
less concealed large numbers Of bodies
not yet discovered.
Rumors were current last evening
that man and child had been taken
from the ruins. but could not be traced
to their source.
The captain of the steamer L. S.
Mccormick reports that he passed
three dead bodies floating in the Ohio
river. about twenty-seven miles below
the city. but was unable to reach them.
The loss on the estate of E. Havelar.
on Butcher Run, will reach $4,000;
loss Of C. Havelar, $1,000.
The Chronicle says editorially this
afternoon that one of the most remark.

or missing. In the terrible rushing
torrent which swept down the
numerous runs there was no middle
ground, and for those who came in its
course there was only one choice-sipk
or swim. Unlike railroad accident
the food leaves no list of manned anC
wounded. and along its raging pathway
the only issue is life and death.
| THRILLING INCIDENTS.
Half of the thrilling incidents Of tn.
great food on Butchers Run have moi
yet been told. Mr.. A. V. Cole, one o
the members Of the firm of G. Haeyele1
Is Co., states that when the foot
of water began no one had any ide:
that the food would reach the grea
proportions which it assumed
: Mr.. Cole, who during
the storm stood outside his dwelling
located just in the rear of the hill, a
the upper end Of the glue works, say!
that the hill had the appearance Of i'm
mense sheets Of water, as outlined OF
the opposite bank, when lighted up b,

down the run he ikencd the sound pro
duced to the roar Of Niagara Fails.

From the Constitution of the National
Grange
The ULTIMATE OBJECT OF THIS ORGASIzA-
TIoN IS FOR MUTUAL INSTRUCTION AND PRO-
lection
Human happiness is the acme of earthly
ambition. Individual happiness depends
upon GENERAL PROSPERITY.
From the address of the Master of the
National Grange, Master Adams of Iowa, de-
livered at the last National Grange meeting
at st. Louis, January, 1874:
"Article xii. also demands most serious
consideration to definitely decide what in
terpretation shall be put upon the word
political" | am gratiied that our members
are substantially unit in the opinion that
the Order should not in any sense become a
political party. But at the same time, there
are questions most fundamentally affecting
our material interests qchich can only be
reached through legislation.-It seems M
PERATIvE that such questions should BE dis
cussed in tie Grange Shall it be said that
such questions were political in the meaning
Of the Constitution? The questions of
TRANSPORTATION, TAXATION, FINANCE, COR
RUPTIoN IN PUBLIC PLACES, aUere such as come
home to the consciences and pockets of our
members, and they wish to know whether
they will be denied the privilege Of can
vassing them on the ground Of politics"
To this suggestion the National
Grange replied as follows in their
NATIONAL PLATFORM
''We emphatically and sincerely assert the
oft repeated truth taught in our organic law,
that the Grange, National, State or Subor-
dinate, is not political or party organiza-
ton. No Grange, is true to its obligations,
can discuss political or religious questions,
nor call political conventions, nor nominate
candidates, nor even discuss their merits in
its meetings.
! Yet the PRINCIPLES WE TEACH USDERLIE ALL
TRUE POLITICS, ALL True CRAFTSMANSHIP, and
| if properly carried out will tend to purify the
whole political atmosphere of our country.
For we seek the greatest good to the greatest
number
We must always bear in mind that no one,
by becoming Patron of Husbandry, gives
up that inalienable right and duty which be-
| longs to every American citizen, to take q
proper interest in the politics Of his country. .
''We propose meeting together, TALKING
TOGETHER, and generally ACTING TOGETH-
Err, for our mutual protection and advance
ment."

was iron bars securing the shutters.
Swiftly the water arose until it stood
five feet deep in the room with cur
rent like mill race settling through
the apartment. Mr.. and Mrs. B. in
stinctiyely seized each child and clung,
to this bar with grip Of despair.
While the cold, muddy torrent swept
over them for four hours, these two
hung to that providentially placed bar
and all were rescued.

child rushed to the street, by some

upon Kentucky in consequence of the
prolonged drcuth, which in that State
has been continuous since seeding time.
Seine twenty or twenty-five counties in

are reported to have raised nothing
whatever. All vegetation is dried up
and charred by the burning sun. Even
the rivers are dried up. Some cases Of
starvation are already reported.

in little rivalry, out of which the con-
