Accounts Of the terrible flood
which has deluged nearly all the s1bur.
ban sections of Pittsburg, Pa. on the
26 inst, shows that the disaster is
greater than was at first supposed.
1t is now thought that the loss Of
life is 200, and the loss of property
will be proportionately large. The
Evening Chronicle places the loss
of life at ZAP, and the names of the
missing parties are continually com
ing in. The extent of territory dam.
aged is not less than twenty totwenty,
five miles in diameter. How the main
portion of the city of Pittsburg, lying
as it does in the center, escaped further
injury appears almost miraculous.
The peryading theory is that the dis
aster was caused by some kind Of
water spout. A gentleman who
watched the storm from a point a
few miles down the river, where
there was little rain, says that by
the fi.td1 flashes oflightning he could
see huge inky black funnel-shaped
cloud, which overhung the city, the
narrow ends being lowest, while the
dark parts gave vent to almost con-
tinous flashes of lightning.

The Beecher-Tilton scandal con-
tinues. Tilton is out with sworn
statements OF some six columns,
charging Beecher with criminal COM
merce with his wife. These charges
are founded on letters and confessions
of his wife to him and to her friends.
Mrs. Tilton, before the church com.
mittee denies the "soft impeachment"
and is backed up by Beecher and the
pillars of Plymouth. The publica
ton of such filthy stuff, as IS divulg.
ed before the committee from day to
day, cannot but have a bad effect up
on the morals of the country. Tilton
has his friends, Beecher has his friends,

The Supreme Court of Maine has

State telegraphed to firm in Chica

thousand bushels of corn, but the de.
spatch was made to read ''one thous,

nine hundred dollars. 1t was a night

Court decided that such a contract,
