Schouvaloff brings assurance that the dis
position in st. Petersburg for peace quite
equals that in London. He is also the bear
er of certain expression of willingness to

arrangement for reconciliation. Russia,
however, declines to pass the sponge over

discuss in a Congress its various stipula-
tions. The Count brings assurances that
Gen. Todleben has been forbidden to make
any attempt to surprise Constantinople, and
also that the Russian Goyernmet is not con-
nected with the manifesto recently issued
by a committee for equipping cruisers.
1t was reported on the Goth that Eng

A TORNADO, moving from southwest
to northeast, passed through Wisconsin
on the night of the Esd, carrying death
and destruction in its wake. At Nine
raj Point, where the tornado first struck
with great severity, large number OF
buildings were demolished and their
occupants buried in the debris. Nine
persons are reported killed in this To-
cality and a proportionate number in
iured. The tornado, somewhat abated
but still very destructive, passed over
Madison and so on through the State,
sweeping every thing in its pathway.
The storm appears to have originated
far to the Southwest, crossing the Mis-
sissippi about six miles south OF Quincy,
and its course through the State OF Hi
nois is marked with destruction. At
Darlington, McHenry County, several
houses were blown down. The house
of German farmer named Brun was
one of the number, and his wife and
two children were killed.

Why John Randolph Hated
Women.

He paid his addresses to younglady
of equal social position with himself,
asked her hand in marriage and was &C.
cepted. The day of their nuptials was
announced, the invited guests assem-
bled, the hour for the ceremony arrived,
and the priest stood ready to perform
the functions of his holy office. The
bride-elect sent a message to her aflianc-
ed that she wished to meet him private
ly for consultation before proceedings
the hymenial altar. He obeyed the
summons and was confronted by her
parents and other relatives and askedto
sign a contract for a marriage SETTLE
ment as condition precedent to the
performance Of the ceremony-a docu-
ment prepared without his knowledge
and of the existence of which he was
now first made acquainted. Not deign'
ing to notice any one present but her
who had plighted him her love ana
faith, he inquired of her if this demand
had been prompted by others or was IL
her own voluntary action. Receiving
a reply that it was an act OF her own
free will, he babe her adieu and retlrea
from the assembly. This circumstance
is supposed to have had u lifelong e.
feet on Randolph, to have blunted tne
finer feelings of his nature, and to nave
given that cast to his character winch
his enemies have construed into mlsan-
thropy.
