The storms and floods in England are no
less remarkable than those occurring ID the
Ohio Valley. The London Times ofthe 10Th
has a leader on the subject, which, with the
change of word or two, might serve as Il
local item:
"In by-gone days every now and then
there was cry that judgments were abroad.
Prudent people, however, even 10 those days,
set about avertlng the impending storm, hav-
ING at least the sense to see they deserved no
special favor. There is now abroad plague
of rain, fl pods, and even hail in some places,
amounting to the scale OF a general calamity.
First, We heard that large portion OF
popuoas city had been deluged aud destroy
ed with hundreds of the Inhabitants; then,
that in the same neighborhood, ana Dy
the same swollen mountain torrents, villages,
and small towns had been efficed from tue
earth with much loss Of life and property.
Again, tidngs arrived that the old capital OF
Hungary had been we'll nigh battered to
pieces and buried under, immense hall'stone>;
then that Geneva had suffered the like, II
not quite SO much. Shortly the news came
that Lis!euX. which is about rs tar from
London as the city Of Exeter, had Its tuln.
Still the English put great faith ID the Sill
yer streak They think IL helps TO Keep
off not only invasion and revolutions,
but even natural calamites. But we
have now heard that which should DIS
pel this security. The rains OF list
week, coming in the hay harvest aad rs
the corn crops are beginning TO rlpen, nave
probably done an amount OF damage eA-
ceeding, in the money value. all the loss OF
property in the Continental disasters. Many
thousands of scres of'hay have lain drencneu
day after day, if not actually submerged, or
even washed away. Wheat and barle! nave
been laid as if by roller, hitherto without
the power of recovery. 1t must tell ID the
yield, ard still more in the quality, particu
arly of the latter crop. All the stoch are
condemned to taSteless, woody, unuourisolh2
bay, on which the cattle will not thrive, ana
on which horses will become short'"'ldsd'
Let Parliament do its best to improve tne
breed OF horses, it will be beaten oy iusty
hay"
The Times concludes with these ref1ec-
tons:
"But, after all, we frankly confess it is not
the occasional danger from these vast masses
of river water W hich affects US most; it Is the
ever-continulng waste. 10 the last week
this country has received from the CLOUDS,
aud passed on Immediately to the sea, Inc
materials of cleanliness, health, and wealth 10
millions upon millions. What cost and
pains we bestoW on the collection, raising,
and distribution of water! How we throw
1t away, as our worst foe, when it comes 10
us uuinyited. Is it impossible to devise
plans that shall place under control the ~nole
supply Of these isles, so that we shall never
have 100 little of it or too much, and In the
best sense know both how to want and no" 10
