Some Old People.

It really seems as if the person who does duty as the Angel Of Death is becoming slack in the performance of his task. Every day we find, in the papers printed in the older settled portions of the country, paragraphs about very old people and their marvellous doings which contrast strangely with the young, hot life around them. For instance, look at the following batch of veterans, gath cred from one days installment of our exchanges:
 The oldest man in New Eng land is John Bullock, of Bristol, R. l., aged 106 years. He held Gen. Washington's horse during one of his visits to the State. A Cumberland (Md. ) newspaper vouches for the fact that Miss Nancy Valentine, who lives near that city, attained her Tooth year in August last, and through all her long life has never had occa. sion to use spectacles can thread needle with as much ease and precision as when sixteen years of age; does her own cooking, and occupies all her spare time knitting stockings for sale, first spinning the wool herself. Three bears in one week were slaughtered by MT. Sheldon B. Hewitt, aged 70 years, in Clark county, Wis.
 Margaret Clark, of Mount Clare, Pa., aged v, recently walked from Steamboat Station (ten miles, to her home.
 Miss Betsey Andrews, the first white girl child born in Frankfort, Ky, died there after a residence of upward of eighty-five years, on Sunday night. She was born May 15, 1790.
 The first child born in Steuben county, N Y.. is still living. In Garrard county, Ky, lives Rachel Garnett, aged 104 years-a woman who remembers to have seen Gen. Washington in full regi- mentals. There are two others John Croucher and Aunt Polly Pointer-whO have reached JOG each. Then there is the Rev, Burdett Kemper, 89, who has been a minister of the Baptist church for sixty years. In this remarka- ble county there are thirty-six persons whose united ages amount | 10 3,061 years-an average of 85 years and a faction over. Hube Hoffman, aged S4 years, deserves to be particularly mentioned as being capable of cutting his cord of wood a day.

Kentucky Ahead.

While out hunting on last Tues day, MT. Richard Ives discovered a large cave in the side of hill under a rock, and while opposite heard the squealing of pigs in- side. He stepped close to the mouth of the cave to investigate the matter, and to his horror saw protruding the head of an im- mense rattlesnake, with pig in its mouth. The pig was about four months. and weighed about seventy-five pounds. He snm- moned a number of his neighbors with guns and pitchforks, who built large fire at the mouth of the cave, in order to drive the snakes out. In about an hour they commenced pouring out over the burning coaIs. AS they appeared in sight the parties fired upon them from the top of the cliff. They continued to pour out until the surrounding woods for twenty pards square was literally covered with dead and live snakes. They killed BIO but many made their escape. The largest one killed "a male-was ten feet long, and measused around the body one and a half feet. The next largest "a female-was seven feet long and measured one foot around the body. The largest snakes have been preserved in alcohol, and will be on exhibition at Oul fair free of charge. The cave was literally filled with heads ofsheep, pigs, etc., which had been captur' ed from the surrounding country -F6rd's (Ky.) Southern Shietd.

 "Isn't your name Sally ? he in quired, taking a closer look.
 "No, sir v' she replied, flashing a look of scOrn at him.
 "Well. then, she didn't come in on this train," he continued "She's got red hair and freckles on her nose, just like you, and Pc a sworn you was Sally"

DAMAGE TO RAILROADS AND CRoPs IN THE
WEST.
CINCINNATI, o., August "a despatch
from Chillcothe says the rain continues
and the food gains strength. The canal
broke below The city and swept 900 bushes
OF wheat into the river. The people living
in the bottom lands are moving their fam.
lilies, fearing an inundation.
a despatch from New Albany, Ind, says
the trains on The New Albany and Chicago
Railroad We're taken of at Gosport. The
track is covered by the food from White
River distance of three miles. heavy
force Of men are at work trying to prevent
the large railroad bridge from floating
away. The White river at this point is
twelve feet higher than ever known be-
fore.
a despatch from Athens, o., says al mid
night the river attained a height of eight
inches over the greatest elevation ever
known before. The gas-works are flooded
and the people have 10 use candles. No
trains are running on any Of the roads and
no mails have arrived since last Saturday
LAFAYETTE, Ind, August g. The hood
| in the Wabash is more than foot above
the high water mark of 1865, and several
| inches higher than ever before since the
| settlement OF The country. All the tributa-
:ies have been running out, and the low
! ground is all overlooked. In many places
the river is from three to five miles wide.
The damage is incalculable, and great sul-
fering must result TO the tenants Oh The
| low lands whose all is Swant avvov The
Wabash bottoms, for an average of a mile
and half wide, the whole length Of the
river, are submerged, and the crops, both
harvested and growing, have been swept
away. The destruction of the Wabash ahd
Erie Canal, between here and Fort Wayne,
is complete. Ii is broken in a hundred
| places. The canal and river have been on
a level for forty eight hours, the wafer Of
the river rushing through the former and
running over the banks, from one TO the
other, al all low places. This will be ter
rible blow to the people of the State. 1t is
impossi ble 10 estimate any more accurately
the acreage submerged. The Louisville,
New Albany and Chicago Railroad is much
damaged between here and Battle. Ground.
That portion Of the city located on the west
bank of the Wabash has been cut of for
two days by the high wafer Overlooking
the bridge and levees, and communication
is only kept open by boats.
EVANSVILLE, Ind, August 3.-The crops
on the low bottoms are utterly ruined. The
heavy damage TO the Evansville and Ciaw-
fordvil!e Railroad above Patoka will be
repaired tomorrow. The rivers are still
rising.
CHICAGO, August 3.-Tho floods in ibis
county have done damage 10 the amount Il
about 100000. The chief injury is from
the overflow OF the Calumet River, which
has inundated the meadow lands and de-
struyed large crops OF hay.
JACKSONVILLE, ILL.,, August 3.-The re-
| cent storms in Central Illinois have done
immense damage TO crops, bridges and

. People feel considerable uneasiness at
the constant appearance Of tramps in our
town. Instances of great insolence and
annoyance have occurred and neighbors
in some localities have agreed upon sig
mails for mutual assistance in case of need.
1t looks now as though it would he neces-
sary to apply the rigors of the law to cure
the evil.
Recently little Ernest Cunningham,
three years old, slipped down and broke
one of his legs. ID. \. Taylor, who was in
the place on transient visit, set the limb,
and it is doing well.
Rev. c. w. Burnham, pastor Of the
Baptist church, goes away this week on a
vacation to be absent the second and third
Sabbaths of the month. His pulpit will
be supplied and the usual services will he
continued during his absence.
1t has been decided to go to Lake Pleas
ant on the picnic excursion Thursday of
this week. Everybody is invited and it is
expected large number will go.
The mill Of Halle. Frost 4 Co. shut
down Saturday night for necessary repairs.
These, it is supposed, will occupy a week,
when it will again start on.
We are to have another praclicing
physician here about the first of Septem-
Der. 1t is said that he has had the benefit
of a full course of study, and for two years
has been associated in practice with an ex-
perienced physician in northern Vermont.

Disastrous Flood. At the West.

The telegraph, for the past few days, has
brought from nearly all parts of the Mis-
sissippi basin, accounts of what is likely 10
prove an unexampled destruction of stand
ing or half-harvested crops and other prop
erty by foundations of the streams and riy
the Vermillion river are flooded, and the
stream is covered with floating wheat
shocks. In Indiana wide areas have been
flooded, crops carried off and railroad
bridges and entertainments badly damaged
or destroyed. In Central and Southern
Ohio the creeks have been swollen 10 the
proportions of rivers, the lowlands every
where flooded, the small grain badly dam
aged by the rain or washed away by the
floods, and the growing corn seriously in
jured and beaten down by the warer. There
has, it seems, been little or no loss of life,
but the loss of fencing, timber and other
property, in addition TO The damage 10 the
railroads and the loss of crops has been
great. In Missouri all the streams are re-
ported to be at flood height; the Usage, La
Mine and Black Water rivers are higher
than they have been known TO be before.
The loss to the farmers is enormous, being
es timated at 81 500, 600 in the Spring river
bottom alone, aud proportionally great
along nearly every stream in the State,
great or small. Railroads, turnpikes and
bridges ais suffer grievously in the general
disaster.

Will some astute mathematician have
the goodness TO solve the practical problem
in loss and gain, of travelling over loose
eobble stones in public highways, especial
ly in the streets of villages, and near places
of public rcsort-and give the sum total IN
pleasure and profit?
On Sunday last, Aug. LIST, circle APP
peared around the sun, which attracted the
attention of many interested observers. II
exhibited the colors of bright rainbow,
the interior so shaded as to resem lie a cir
cular substance lung up against the al
most cloudless heavens, having a lumin-
Gus lining with the sun glowing in the
centre. Near midday two sun-dogs of I'M
usual brl!iancy appeared, one at the south
and the other at the north of the sun. A
white ring of the size Of the circle also APP
peared at the northwest of it, extend
ing into 1t, and passing through the sun, its
centre. This singular atmospheric phe-
nomenon may require Sduan 10 fully ex-

Chester Briggs has sold his farm lying
about two miles south of the village, to
Almon Harris, of Charlemont, Mass. Price

a family reunion of the children aud grand

years had interviewed since their last meet

THE SCHILLER CALAMITY INvEsTIGA-
TED.-The British Board of Trade attrib-
utes the loss of the Schiller TO the omission
of the Captain to take soundings when he
found himself in an impenetrable fog. The
report Of the Board says: The explana-
ton Of the catastrophe is that the ship had
greatly overrun her distance. She must
have been further TO the northward and
eastward than the dead reck oning denoted.
Had cast Of the lead been taken at eight
or even nine o'clock, before the course was
altered 10 south southwest, from the depth
aud nature Of the bottom, it would have
shown them their proximity TO danger and
and the error in their reck oning, and would
probably have averted the sad disaster"

1t is "hard times" everywhere, North
and South, among whites and blacks. But
there is nothing like looking at the facts
philosophically. The Vicksburg Herald
relates the following:
An ancient darkey leaned over a Clay
street gate yesterday, and called to the
dusky proprietor Of a cabin: "See heah,
Henry, isn't you bout ready to pay me
dat two bits?"
Haven't noff1n TO pay wild" was the
reply. "You borrowed dat money whole
year ago, Henry - continued the old man.
Cant help dat-can't pay" "Henry, l
DeileNes you don't want TO pay; l believes
you is dishonest, and nebber ask for de
money again; I'll leave de Lord to collect
itF' "Shoo" exclaimed Henry, greatly
interested all at once, "you hasn't emmy
more money 10 lend on dose terms, has
YEP"
