| The rain storm which passed over this

destruction In its path II was shout a
quarter Of mile in width, and had the
appearance Of an immense tunnel, with
the small end on the ground. Nothing in
in Its track escaped injury. In some
places houses and barns were demolished,
and in others they were unroofed and 9TH
erwise damaged. Wagons and other i'm
plements were torn to pieces and carried
away by the wind. In one instance .
wagon was demolished, and the tongue
carried through the air for distance of
two miles. 77775 NJ =
We have been unable to learn the
names Of all the sufferers or the full ex-
tent of tue damage done.
The following are few Of the casualties
Grant Mack's house and staLles were
demolished, his wagons and farm ma
chincry torn to pieces and carried away,
and everything npon his farm more or
less damaged. a#
Joseps Cabalka's granary was destroy
ed, and his stables, wagons, etc, complete
ly wrecked.
Another farmer, whose name we were
unable to learn, had his granery demolish-
ed, and 10 out of 10 bushels of wheat
scattered broadcast by the storm.
These are but few instances of the raw
ages Of the tornado. Its power seemed to
be irresistible, and whatever stood In its
wav was either demolished or left with
unmistskabie MARKS Of the power Of the
storm.
Fortunately, so far as we have been able
to learn, no lives were lost or personal in
jury sustained. We fear, however, thst
when the full particulars of the tornado
reach US that some casualties will be re
ported, as it seems almost Impossible that
amid so much destruction Of property no
persons should be killed or MANNED

Census of fChristianity.

It Is 3 favorite assertion with many of
the enemies OF Christianity that, after Z
sufficient trial, it has failed to leave q
marked impression upon the world and
many superficial statistics are quoted to
glue plausibility TO that notion. A better
knowledge Of facts leads to different
conclusion. The following satisfies are
prsented by Prof A. J. Schem. in discus
sion of the diffusion of Christianity:
Total population Of the earth ,se6 e., 900
Under Christian governments. ........ 6sS.4S9.411
Undsr nom Christian governments III, ,Ss2 ,oss
Total area Of the earth, square miles. 52oe2 40
Area Of Chrtstian Govsrnnents. ...... S2,4l9,915
Area Of non-C Christian lands. l9,642 lSS
Two results are here reached. One is,
that nearly half the population Of the
woald 10 sunder Christian governments.
the pther is that nearly two-tclrds Of the
earth is under the domination Of Chris

What They Bank On.

Tho Radicals are banking on the
mistakes of the Democracy. 1t is
just now their meat and drink.
Gen. Grant says the Democracy
will commit some big blunder just
in time to elect Radical president
in 1880. Let the Democracy be
wise and slow. An ounce of pre-.
ventive is worth q thousand pounds
of cure. "No blunders," should be
written in words of gold, on all our
banners. Cut this out, paste it in
your hat, and read it at least three

Should the Supreme Court cou6rm the
Judgment of the lower court, and should
Gov. Nichols not pardon Anderson, and
should he, Wells and the whole quartette
of the returning board get well within the
walls Of the State penitentiAry, then will
it be proper to repeat in full and emphatic
tones these very appropriate lines,
Though the mills Of God grind slowly,
Yet they grind exceeding small;
Though with patience He stauds waiting,
With exactuess grinds He ALL
