Last weeks storm .

The heavy storm of wind and rain. which
prevailed last Thursday and Thursday night.
of which we in this section had only Il
slight touch, traversed the Atlantic coast from
the capes of Virginia to the eastern terminus
of the shore line of Maine, and extended as
far West as Chicago. large amount of dam
age was done on the land by freshets and
washouts. but the injury to the shipping both
on the seacoast and ON the great lakes. was
probably greater. On branch of the Read

night, while the tempest of wind and rain wa,
at its height. The rain washed away the en-
bankment supporting the rails and the cir
cumstances of the accident were peculiarly
horrible. Twelve persons Were instantly killed
and 30 others badly wounded.
The steamer Massachusetts of the Provi-
dence and New York line carrying 200 pas
sengers, went ashore on Rocky Point, near
Greenpoint, Long Island. about midnight of
Thursday, and still lies rpon the rocks. The
passengers were all sa' ly landed in boats
during the next forenoon, and no lives were
lost. The vessels carr was mostly thrown

the accident was due to an error of Judgment

was proceeding very cautiously, constantly
using til, l-a7. and had no idea of immediate
danger until IL, boat struck. Although the
situation was one of great danger both officers
and passengers behaved with the greatest
GOODNESS and bravery, and there was no APP
proach to panic.
The storm was the most destructive that
has visited Delaware bay for many years
About 100 sail, mostly wood-laden and GOLFERS

and vicinity report a great loss of crops and
much injury to railroads. A heavy rain pre-
vailed at Baltimore from early Thursday
morning until six in the evening, and many
cellars along the wharyes and in the north
western and eastern sections of the city were
flooded. In the afternoon strong wind
blew down trees, signs, etc. Railroad travel
was much interfered with in the interior of

Fernandina, the fever-stricken Florida city
which now calls for assistance from the more
fortunate sections of the country, is place of
some 1900 or 2O0O inhabitants. n majority of
whom are colored. The present municipal
authorities found its treasury impoverished,
and debt accumulated to heavy amount. and
in their desire to economic in city expendi-
lures the drainage of the city and sanitary
regulations generally We're neglected. The
usual result of such foolish, if not criminal
negligence in the name of economy followed
and now half the population have fed OF
the other half during the six weeks in which
the epidemic has ragged eight hundred have
been attacked by the disease, three hundred
are now i'll and nearly 10 per cent. of all the
cases have resulted fatally. This shows that
while the plague has been very general it has
been much less deadly in its results than is or
dinarily the case Nearly all the white peo-
pie in the city subject to attack have already
been Frustrated and the material upon which
the disease can feed in that direction is
nearly exhausted One of those who
have left the city says the ravages
of the plague are now rapidly taking in the
colored people, who of late years seem to
have lost their immunity from this scourge
and among them a ,greater mortality is ex-
pected The same gentleman says there is
immediate need for pecunary assistance and
supplies to relieve, in the name of pure hui
manity, the large number of destitute and suf-
fering colored people

condition of things, massed their forces and
triumphontly carried of the prize.
With such result in n state which is ordi-
narily Republican by strong majority it is
not unnatural that men and papers in the
Republican party, not in sympathy with Mr..
Hayes and the general bearing of his admins
tration, should claim this Republican defeat
as n voluntary expression of dissatisfaction
with the Presidents Southern policy, and that
they should embrace this rs an opportunity
for renewed observations upon the abandon
ment of Republican principles" surrender
to the South" etc In accounting for this
apparent overturn, however, it should not be
forgotten that Ohio has been close state in
recent years, and that this is not the first time
that the Democrats have been victorious
there, while in last years presidential contest
Mr.. Hayes's majority over all was only 2,747
and his plurality over Tilden only 7,j1G.
With our present light upon this subject,
therefore, we are not disposed to regard the
result in Ohio as an unqualified and intention
al "rebuke" of the Administration but it is,
nevertheless, undoubtedly true that there are
not few disaffected men in the party who,
disappointed in securing their own personal
ends, have not been unwilling to SOW the
seeds of discord and to see an expression"
of this kind brought about. In behalf of this
class it can only be said that, for their own
peace of mind, rs well as for the good of the
rank and file of voters which they are able for
the time being to influence it is to be
regretted that they should not have more fully
caught what the best and wisest Republicans
see and feel TO be the spirit of the times.
For, however one class of politicians or an
other may view the matter, the fact remains
that the course adopted by President Hayes
toward the South was chosen, not alone be-
cause it was the soundest and only Republican
policy under the existing exigency, but be-
cause it was right-and whether it shall
require greater or less length of time for
the complete vindicaton of his action, it will
be proved in the end that the heart of the
people is with the President in his work. and
that it is useless for disappointed or self-seck-
ing men to attempt to block the wheels of
political progress which he has so bravey and
unhinchmgly set in motion

TueAtIay's Elections.

Elections were held on Tuesday in Iowa
and Ohio for full boards of State officers and
legislatures. In both states the vote appears
to have been lighter than usual. In Iowa
four State tickets were voted for: Republican,
Democrat, Greenback, and Prohibition. The
rainy weather which prevailed in that state
lessened the vote, and the returns at this
writing are very meagre, but enough is known
to indicate that the Republican ticket, headed
by John II. Gear, for governor, has swept the
state by 10000 majority. The legislature, of
course, is Republican in both branches.
In Ohio there We're six State tickets in the
field, namely; Republican, Democratic.
Greenback, Prohibition, and two Working
Mems. The returns received show considera-
BILE Democratic gains and corresponding Re
publican losses, and il is conceded that the
whole Democratic ticket, with Richard NJ.
Bishop, for Governor, is elected by majority
estimated all the way from $4,000 to %, 600.
The legislature, also will have working
Democratic majority, which secures the cleo
tion of a democrat to succeed Stanley Matthews
in the United States Senate in 1879 Such
sweeping Democratic victory in the state
is no less a surprise to the members of that
party than it is to the Republicans, and it can
only be accounted for on the ground that the
Republicans staid at home very largely, that
the workingmen polled an unexpectedly large
vote, amounting TO at least 20 600 which WINS
drawn in very great degree from the Repub-
LEANS that there was dissatisfaction with the
Presidents Southern Policy, especially in the
Republican strongholds in the Western Reserve
counties, aud TINT the Democrats, under this

Returns from the Colorado election, which
was held last week, come in slowly though it
begins to be pretty certain that the Republi-
cans have made clean sweep in the State /;
but however this may be there is no doubt
that the woman suffrage amendments TO the
constitution have been defeated. This result
will be heavy blow to the advocates of
equal suffrage" for the reason that a con-
certed effort in behalf of giving the ballot to
woman was made, and the most eloquent ora
tors and the most earnest workers in the
cause have been putting in their sturdiest
blows in the Centennial State for months past
The suggestion is made that the people of
Colorado are not pleased with the operation
of woman suffrage in Wyoming on the north
and Utah on the west, in both of which terri
tories the women have voted for some years
past-seven years in Wyoming and four years
in Utah-but the Boston Post is probably
right when it says that lit is more likely that
the women of Colorado themselves are respon-
sible for the result Had they really wanted
the ballot they could have secured it with the
leaders that were given them and the organi-
cation that was effected. When the women
of the nation or of any State demand the bal
lot with any degree of unanimity, it will have
to be given them; until then desultory zeal,
even though accompanied by desperate ener-
gy, will avail little"
