AW HOLE FAMILY KILLED by A TOR.
NADO.

The country through Montgomery,
Berks, Lancaster and Montour coun.
ties, Pa, has been visited by very Sc
we're rain, hail and wind storms. The
severity Of these storms has been par.
ticularly great. Whole fields ofgrain,
corn, and truck have been flattened
down by the wind and overhowed by
the rising water. The damage in
this way alone is considerable. Nu-
merous houses and barns have been
struck by lightning and destroyed,
At and near Pottstown, Montgomery
county, the loss is heavy. Further
up in the country, reports come Of
much devastation. 1t is reported that
whole family named Hessler con-
sisting Of father, mother, and three
children, residing on farm in one OF
the mountainous agricultural districts,
were killed by the house falling on
them during the prevalence of the
hurricane. The rivers and creeks
traversing the region where the storms
have prevailed have risen to a great
height, and are still rising. 1t is ap.
pretended there will be still greater
destruction.

The substance Of John D. Lees
confession concerning the Mountain
Meadow Massacre in Utah is that
thirty Mormans with the assistance
of a large number Of Indians decoyed
the emigrants from their entrench-
ments by flag of truce; that all
were murdered except II children !;
that the deed was done under orders
from the leader Of the Mormon
church; that he took the news ofthe
massacre to Brigham Young, who de-
plored the transaction, and said that
it would bring disaster on the Nor
mon people. The statement of Lee,
so far as known, only confirms the pre-
vious reports of the massacre. The

SHORTLY before the holding of the
Democratic State Convention several
Of the organs Of that party gave Mr..
Donnelly notice that he could take
his choice either to support the man
they had named for Governor or to
get out Of the party. Mr.. Donnelly
took his choice and didn't do either.
He just went to the Convention and
taking the editors of the aforesaid
organs and all the rest of the dele
gates by the nose led them right up
to the nomination of his candidate,
and no fooling about it either. The
thing was done on the first ballot, and

slowly to the kicking-out process and

Democrats out of his party than they
/. are to kick him out Of theirs.

A SUMMARY Of the losses Of the fire
insurance companies for the first six
months of this year shows that they
aggregate more than the entire losses
for 1874. The losses this year, too,
have fallen, not upon the great cities,
but chiefly upon the country towns,
on property destroyed in which the
insurance companies have paid about
$26, 100000.

"A young mother in Conway,
Mass, left her child in a shady place
while she picked strawberries in a
field. When she called to know if it
were safe, she received no answer, and
on going to it found that it had been
completely charmed by brown snake,
and unable to speak or move. Her
screams frightened the snake away,
but the child quivered and cried for
an hour, and it was several days be-
fore it recovered from the baneful in
flu ence of the REPTILE.

evidently anticipates even higher
figure than now commanded by wheat
in the great markets Of the world
1t states that every market abroad is
so scantily supplied as to be actually
on the borders of exhaustion. In
the French provinces wheat has made
the almost unprecedented advance Of
from one to three shillings, and in
Paris, where the direct effects of the
floods are not so perceptibly felt, an
advance of Is. Cd. is noted. In Bel

in Holland, where the crop is en-

SHALL 4 RLlNDER he REPEATEDs

Two years ago the Republican State
Convention made a fatal blunder in
refusing to nominate Mr.. E. w. Dixie
for State Treasurer, and it will make
as unfortunate and inexcusable a
blunder if it fails to nominate him
this year. At that time Mr.. Dixie
had been called by the Governor to
take hold Of the Treasury when its
affairs were in a wretched condition,
and he speedily put them into good
shape. He at once secured the con-
fidence Of the people Of the State, and
while that fall the rest of the Repub-
lican ticket was elected, Mr.. Dixie,
whom the Republicans had so foolishly
thrown aside, was picked out from the
Opposition ticket, on which he had
been placed without any request on
his part or even consent after the
nomination, and placed IN charge of
the Treasury. The temper of the
people is about the same now asst was
then, only "a little more 50" A
majority Of them do not care straw
whether the Treasurer is a Republican
or Democrat, 50 he is an honest, ca
pable man. Considerations which
might influence their vote for Govern
or, would not have tine slightest weight
when choice was to be made as to
who should have the keeping of the
States funds. While devoting very
little time, if any, to politics, Mr..
Dixie is understood to still be what he
has always been, a Republican. What
is more important just now, he is a
straightforward business man, thor
oughly qualified for the position. His
management Of the Treasury during
the past two years has been such as to
justify the confidence first reposed in
him and to call for his denomination.
His name would add largely to the
strength Of the Republican ticket.
craftsmanship aside, and it may we'll
be put aside where it is of so little
Importance, the nomination of Mr..
Albert Scheffer by the Democrats was
a strong one. He is known through
out the State as business man of
ability and integrity, and in the event
of a merely political nomination by
the Republicans will as certainly be
elected asMr. Dixie was two years ago.
1t is very safe to predict that the next
Treasurer will be either one of these
wogentlemen, and it is for the Repub-
lican State Convention to say which
Of them it shall be.

The Duluth Herald is of the
opinion that the hundreds of Men
nonites now going to Manitoba will
soon become discouraged with the
isolation and inhospitable charac-
ter OF the country and the yearly
grasshopper scourge and return to
locate on the rich lands along the
line of the Northern Pacific.

TESTIMONY from all parts of Gen.
trail and Southern Illinois shows that
the present season has been an unus-
ually wet one. During all of the
spring, and thus far into the summer,
rain has fallen very much in the fash
ion that Washington Irving found
it in the Farmers Almanac" in the
country inn. Showers, storms, and
floods have been the rule, and the
ground has been drenched to such an
extent that even now, in midsummer,
water is standing in the valleys and
the swampy places are fairly stagnat-
ing with their overflow. The gases
arising from the immense surface of
rank vegetation decaying and rotting
under July and August sun, threat
ems to breed a pestilence. The Chica-
go Tribune warns farmers to take all
possible precautions against these pes
tilential possibilities by laying in a
substantial STOCK Of quinine and other
familiar remedies for fevers and bowel
disorders, and taking them in advance
to prepare the system to ward off or
at least weaken the attack of these
diseases. 1t thinks that a few pre-
cautions in the shape of simple rem
edies promptly on hand may prevent
a very serious epidemic by checking
it's spread at the outset.
