OPP ming ofthe Campaign at senatobia-
speech - by major hsImers and
colonel HuOEScF-SO color
Ffne.

Special 10 the Appeal
SENAroBIA, July 29.-The political
campaign was most proPitiously inau-
glrated here to-day by grand rally Of
tins Conservative masses Of Tate county.
The meeting was very large, enthusiast
tie harmonious and orderly. Major H.
II. Chalmers, Of Hernandez, and Colonel
c. f.. Hooker, Ct Jackson, delivered
stirring and able addresses. Major
Chalmers made the most powerful and
able speech OF his life, and aroused the
most intense enthusiasm among the
vast and attentive audience. Colonel
Ho)ker's speech was eloquent, able and
replete with the most convincing
arguments against Radical rule
everywhere. Us effect will be of lastir Z
god in this part OF the State. The reso-
buttons were liberal, conservative and
patriotic The establishment Of the
color-line is deprecated, and q union Of
ell good citizens, OF both races, for the
promotion OF honest government, is
recommended ss the true policy Of the
Conservatives throughout the State.
This spirit embodies the policy Of the
party in Mississippi, and will be adj
hered to. The day when the negro vote
can lie absolutely controlled by carpet
baggsrs and administration emissaries
has passed away. The resolutions were
unanimously adopted. The vast throrg
quietly d 7ersed without an incident to
mar the enthusiasm and harmony of the
occasion.

ST LOUIS, July 29.-Accounts have
reached here Of another very heavy rain
storm in central Missouri. Rain fell
from twelve to twenty-four hours in diff.
ferent localities, and did great damage
to crops and railroads. Large sections
Of fiat country were submerged, and
creeks and streams OF all kinds over
flowed their banks. Trains we're stopped
on some roads by wsshOuts Of track and
culverts and by land-slides, and on 9TH
ers trains were badly delayed by high
water or unsafe track or bridges. The
storm is said to be the severest Of the
season.

WASHINGTON, July ga delegation
composed of Messrs. j. w. GOff, of Gin
cinnati; Thomas, Of Louisville; Free
burg, of Cincinnati; Francis, OF Peoria;
and Boyd & Moss, Of New York city,
representing the convention Of distillers
which recently assembled at Cincinnati,
to consider the best interests of honest
traders, were at the treasury department
to-day and had a!engthy interview with
the commissioner Of internal revenue.
All made suggestions with regard to a
modification Of the regulations govern
ing the trade in spirits, and especially
requested more stringent rule as to
the transfer Of gaugeIs and stOrekeepers,
arguing that these officers should be
transferred from one district to another,
and even from one State to another, as
often as once in thirty days, instead OF
sixty days. The committee also want
ed a modification of the rule governing
the transportation OF old spirits, show
ing the natural outs. The matter Of seiZ-
ures upon technical grounds was also
discussed, the committee Rverring that
very often seizures were made by gov
eminent officers upon purely technical
grounds and without proper eXamina-
ton, thus putting distillers and rectitiers
to much unnecessary annoyance. The
commissioner Will give the subjects
discussed careful attention. Alter an
interview with Commissioner Pratt the
committee paid their respects to the
secretary Of the treasury.

parts OF the country are good. Still,
three heavy storms in one day may
fairly be considered almost too much Of
3 good thing.
FLOOD IN NEW YORK CITY.
New York World, Tuesday,
Third avenue, between Fortieth and
Forty-sixth streets, was flooded yester-
day as it has not been in years before.
At the lowest points the cellars were
more than half filed with water, and
the streets were washed by rushing tor
rents. In some cases the iron covers to
the "man-hOles" of the main sewer
along the avenue were blown off by the
compressed air forced out by the sudden
influx Of water. The flood in the cell
lars was due principally to water forced
back to the drsin-pipes leading to the
main sewer, which runs parallel with
the avenue several feet below the middle
OF the street. The cause OF this setback
OF water, Is said to be the lack Of a SUI
ficient number Of cross-seWeIs to carry
the wster into the river in times Of
sudden and heavy storms occurring
simultaneously with high tide in
the East river. Yesterdays storms
were unusually sudden and violent, and
VIC 1dAL lCAA az bllC DOul vi ulku
tide, and the consequence was that the
trades-peOple in the district above men
toned were surprised by a sudden rush
of water in their cellars. Many Of them
live and conduct their business below the
street level, and so sudden was the flood
that they were knee-deep in water before
they had discovered that the rain was
violent, their goods and household fur
niture suddenly beOinninC n float ahOut
on the rising tide. In some cases help
less invRlids left alone ran narrow
chances of drowning, and in one or two
instances sleeping babies were sfoat in
their cradles before they could be carried
up to dry land. Cellar-stOred goods were
in most cases submerged before
they could be removed. Bakers
and cOnfectiOners, especially abundant
in this neighborhOod, had their sugar
and flour pretty generally soaked and
spoiled. Those who occupied cellars for
dwellings and shops had no place above
into which to remove their goods, and it
would have done no good to remove
them to the street for the rain was fall
ing in sheets, and would have saturated
them as thoroughly as the floods below.
As it was, they had all they could do to
get their wives and children out Of
harms way, and traders Waded about
among their goods endeavoring to place
the most valuable in the safest place.
Although the loss in the aggregate is
not large, yet upon some it falls very
heavily. Some of the poorer people had
all their bedding saturated, and their
dwellings made uninhabitable in cOnse-
quence Of the dsmpness.

NEW YORK, July 26.-Another failure
is announced in the grocery trade, that
Of Messrs. Martin Y. Bum & Go. The
house did an extensive jobbing business
with the city and country, and stool
well in credit until recently, when it was
found that they had some time ago
locked up a good part Of their capital in
real estate. The difficulty in recalling
this is the alleged cause of their suspen-
sion OF payments. Mr.. Bum states that
the suspension is only temporary, and
