How long is this going on - ask

DEATH by whence is still the tenor
Of every dispatch, the whisper Of ev-
cry breeze. Last week a legion Of
Deaths skeleton chargers swept over
the country and brought disaster to
scores Of victims. The rush Of their
invisible hoofs was heard above the
raging winds far away on the North
ern lakes; on the golden sands Of the
Pacific; among the Green Mountains
Of Vermont, and away down by the
cotton fields Of Alabama. An &C.
count Of the terrible storms is given in
this paper. The lightnings, winds,
steam. kerosene, incendiaries, and
night-riders conspire to reduce to
worm-fsed hapless humanity, and
swell the vast cavalcade Of pale, sad
ghosts and ghostssses, who day and
night are marching over Jordan.
