HEIGHT OF STORMS.

Prof. LOOMS, in his investi cations
of the phenomena of storms, has as
cer,ained that atmospheric disturb
ances during storms do not generally
extend more than about mile above
the sea-level as they pass over New
England. From observations ma6e at
the sea-level, as at Portland, simuitan-
cously with observations at the summit
of Mt. Washington, it is found that
during the passage of storms the usual
system of circulating winds does not,
in a majority of instances, extend to
height of six thousand feet. The more
violent the movement, however, the
greater is tho height attained by the
disturbance. Another fact of interest
is that the disturbance on the approach
of a storm is felt at tho surface sooner
than Mt considerable elevations. Prof.
LOOMS says that "when, during the
progress of an area of low pressure, the
system of circulating winds reaches the
summit of Mt. Washington, the change
of wind to the east quarter usually be
gins at the surface stations clever
hours sooner than it does on the sum
NIT of that mountain" 1t thus ap
pears that only in the lower portions
of the atmosphere do the great storm
movements occur, and they arc frs
felt at or near the earth's surface.

THE QUEBEC TROUBLE.

QrEBTc, August 20. No fresh compiled
tions in the labor trouble. Troops, however,
are on guard.
The sub committee appointed to confer
with delegates of the rival ship laborers So
ccties met to-day. The delegates agreed
upon the proposition to continue two district
organizations and abstain from all public
procession.
This be reported to their respective socie-
ties for approval. Contradiction of theft of
arms from Lorettc proved entirely erroneous.
4 number of men went out from st. Saovier
and took possession of q stands of arms by
force. The officers Immediately informed
military authorities offering to escort a body
of cavalry along the road, where they would
meet persons having arms in their possess
ion. Strange to say the brigade major did
not accept the offer and arms remain in the
hands of the captors.

kER. heath AND OWEN.

Though the notice of the fag raising on
the East side of the river was short, yet the
numbers which assembled last night to see
the unfolding of the beautiful flag, at the cor
ner of Bangor and Cony streets, was large.
Shortly after half past seven o clock the Au-
gusta Band formed in line in front of the re-
publican headquarters at Meonian Hall, and
accompanied by throngs before and behind,
and playing one of its finest airs, proceeded
to the bridge and across the river, to the top
of the hill where the banner was to be I'M
rolled. just as the throng of people got be-
meath the flag it was swung out, and was sa-
luted with cheer upon cheer by the crowd and
the music of the Band. Leaving the stars
and stripes proudly bearing the name of Dan
iei +. Davis, the music and the assembly
proceeded to the lot in front of the old Cony
Academy near by. Here the band stand had
been decorated and illuminated by Chinese
lanterns. The people gathered about this,
while in the streets, on either side. were many
loaded teams. After more music by the
Band, VIM. II. Libby, Esq, came before the
audience, and briefly welcoming them and
announcing that he had been chosen Prcsi-
dent of the occasion, he presented Orville ID.
Baker, Esq. Mr.. Baker was received with
applause and proceeded to make somewhat
more than halt-hour's address. which was
finished in style, and Astounding in sood
points.
Abiding to the flag which had Just been
hung ont, he eloquently maintained that the
republican party had right to put it there.
because it represented national and party
promises made and kept. After more music,
Herbert Nj. Heath, Esq, was introduced
being also heartily received and also making
a half hour speech. His remarks were popu-
lar, his illustrations telling, and his argu-
ments presenteden an able style. Following
the last speaker the President introduced in
complimentary terms another home orator.
Howard Owen, Esq, who was accorded a
warm reception. Mr.. Owen made the clos
ing speech of the occasion. a speech which
was replete with humorous hits, and spicy.

The arrangements of this affair were hand
somely carried out by our friends across the
river. 1t was hoped that Hon. Arson Z. Nor
rill would he present, but the President of
the meeting announced that he could not be
present on account of being unwell
The exercises being concluded at this
place, the Band and quite an accompanying
party took up their line of march to Gage
ST., where they saluted Davis flag. which
was put out by Mr.. ID. II. Campbell. Mr..
Owen made a few remarks in response to the
salute

morning, on warrant charging him with

A Rough Character.

Last Friday night about half past 10 o'clock
| Deputy Marshal Jones ON Cushnoc Heights.
| There were no men at home, but Mrs. Jones,
her daughter and two other ladies were there
alone. Mrs. j. went to the door and on in
quring who was there received the reply, "a
| friend" She demanded the name of the
person and received the reply, ''Marshal."
Surprising from this that it was City Marshal
White she unlocked and opened the door
The man then started to step in. at the same
time demanding something to eat, telling her
to get it d quick. Mrs. Jones was great
ly surprised and by her excitement was able
to force the intruder from the house and shut
the door in his face When MIR. Jones came
home short time afterwards he found an OK
cited household, all of the ladies being quite
overcome by the affair. The Deputy started
right oudfor the fellow and looked for him till
after midnight but to no purpose. The next
! morning he and the City Marshal continued
the search and In the course of the forenoon
arrested their man. He was then taken to
Cushnoc Heights and was identified by Mrs.
Jones.
The man gave the name of Thomas Mar
shall, said that he was a detective, and was
hunting for horse thieves, that he called at
Jones house because he knew he was the
Deputy Marshal, and wanted him to go with
him. The Deputy's house was not the only
place he called at but there were several
other houses where he alarmed the people.
When Marshall was taken before the NUM-
cipal court he was arraigned for vagrancy.
He refused to give any account of himself.
and said the Judge could do what he wanted
to with him. He was sent to Jail for four
months. The officers have had an idea that
Marshall was horse thief, and that he was
one of the gang they surprised in the Written
neighborhood several weeks ago. But several
persons brought from that vicinity failed to
recognize him. The police think that Mar
shall is a hard character. and that he is prob
ably wanted for crimes committed elsewhere.
He is about 33 years old. nearly six feet high,
and a stout, muscular fellow.

Notes from the CampgrOund.

TUESDAY EVE, Aug. IL.
The storm that has continued almost inces-
sanity since Saturday, has delayed everything
here. In fact, there have been but few arri-
walls; a few tents have been pitched this after
noon, and few cottagers have come on every
train. 1t has been impossible to raise the
tabernacle, but if no more rain falls it will be
raised tomorrow afternoon. Residents here
were somewhat alarmed last night, fearing
the high wind that prevailed might blow some
of the trees upon their cottages, but no acct
dents are reported. Several trees were blown
down, but none within the enclosure. Some
of the avenues are washed quite badly, but a
few hours labor will suffice to put them in
good condition again.
After the recent heavy rain. it is fair to
presume that good weather will prevail for
some time to come. Things are not in tina.
state of readiness they would have been had
the weather been more propitous. yet by to-
morrow night everything will be in very good
shape to receive the people. 1t looks as
though with good weather during the remain
der of the week, the Temperance meeting
would be fairly attended; but next week will
be the great week of the feast :.

Children should be warned against eating
the kernel of peach stones, as it contains
deadly poison known as prussic acid, one grain
of which will kill an adult. One ounce of peach
kernels contains about grain and is amply
sufficient if eaten to quickly kill any child or
adult. Recently fatal case of such poisoning
occurred in Paris, Trance. 1t seems that lit
tie boy, years Of age, succeeded in obtaining
number of peach stones, and, after breaking
them, ate the kernels. When found he was
nearly dead from the effects of the contained
prussic acid, and aid arrived too late to save
him. Should any sickness occur from eating
peach or other kernels. it is well TO remem-
her that ammonia is one of the best antdotes.
The patient should be made to inhale all he
can, and few drops diluted with four or five
times its bulk of water, should be given in
ternally.-Lemiston Journal.
