GREAT AMOUNT OF DAMAGE DONE In
TIE wBsrsRN PA1r OF .PEHNsYLvA'
MA.
PIrrsBuRa, July 28.-The following V
. partial list Of the losses 1t Petrona by
6aturday'e noods: Whartley, q. 20;
Bottusr,s jewslsy store, % 900; the White
FAwn Restaurant, u 600; 6ternberg's
clothing house, 1000; Levine, cigars,
81 900; Foote's drug store, 5000; 6os-
sion's grocery store, 5000; i've vacant
buildings, 5000, Central drug store,
$4,000; Marks dry good store, q. 800.
The loss In that neighborhood Is roughly
placed ~ S200, 900. The scene during
the destruction was terrible. Men,
women and children rushed hither and
thither In elevated positions where life
would be secure. Many Of the people
lost all their effects and are left in state
Of destitutlon. The storm was most
severe up the Monongahela and Alle-
ghory Valleys. The reports Of bridges
destroyed and culverts washed out on
the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago
Railroad are incorrect,
The only damage on that line was q
land side, which was cleared away in q
couple OF hours. The damage on the
Erie branch Of that road was repaired
Saturday evening. The main line OF the
Pennsylvauia Road escaped damage
Several heavy land slides occurred or
the Pittsburg, Virginia and Charleston
Road. The track was washed out d
Black Diamond and the Mingo Valley
flooded. The rivers At this point rose
from ten inches to ten feet In less thar
ten hours.

time paying interest on 30 many bonds
with which it was purchased. That Is
Sherman's policy. Under It the govern
ment has NO credit. It has plenty Of
cash but no credit. In former times the
government had credit. and did NOT need
to keep on hand two to three hundred
millions Of gold and silver purchased
with government bonds for which 1t paid
interest while the same specie laid idle.
Sherman's act was positive injury to
the people and their government. Green
backs had risen, in anticipation Of the
full demonstration of the silver dollar,
to 99a. Then Sherman stepped In and
contracted for fifty millions Of gold at Il
premium; thus actually putting green
backs down and gold up by his own act,
and making the people run into bond
ed debt Of fifty millions Of dollars for
they money did not want and have not yet
used. Had sherman not been knsve
or fool, he would have snapped his
fingers at the gold brokers and bade
them keep their gold. Greenbacks were
within per cent Of par, and the silver
dollars then being coined would have
given him and the government all the
coin and paper at par that was wanted.
But Sherman Is q mere money trader.
He has no patriotism and he sold him
self and his people to the money kings
and has put the government two hun
dred millions deeper in debt than 1t was
when he went into the Treasury De-
partment. The greenback was going to
par and when the government had no
silver or gold either, more than what
was paid for duties why then go in debt
to buy millions Of gold just when the
mints were being set to work to coin
millions more than we needed.
The rascality Of John Sherman and
the cabal that demonetized silver will
yet be shown up. The men live thai
will be able to portray these villain
Gus transactions IN their true light, anC

yesterday morning about noon par
ty of three young men were bathing III
the surf between Pennsylvania and North
Carolina avenues, aud two of them ven
tured out to the bar, upon which there
was about three feet OF water, and urged
the third to follow. He started to swim
out to them, and did get nearly to their
sides when he undertook to place his
Ieet upon the ground and was washed
over. He at once lost control of himse II
and began to drown. Mr.. 4. q. Wolf,
of PhiIaJelphia, saw his danger, ana
went to his assistance, saving him and
Ike. ping him afoat untl chain was
formed by the bathers and they were
brought to shore. The other two young
men were also in danger, and the City
Life Boat No. 2 went to their aid and
landed them on the beach. The first
yIc,im was Mr.. Edward Brodie, aged
about twenty-five years, the son OF the
proprietor of the Bellevue House, on
New Jersey avenue, who was apparently
dead. DR.. Sajous, of Philadelphia, nap
peued to be on the beach at the time, ,ano
after using various means, restored nIe

DIFFERING OPINIONS CONCERNING HIN
SOME ADMIRE ANDsOME BLAME, But
HE LOOKS ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF
THINGS.
The great ovation given 70 DR.. Tai
mage in Liverpool and London has not
been free from drawba The London
correspondent of the Christidni Advo-
cate, of n. Y, says that while the mas
of the people in the British metropolis
are with DR.. Talmage, and his short stay
there will make him many new and true
friends, opinions concerning him differ
as much there as they do here some
Presbyterian ministers say they would
not admit him to their pulpits, and II Is
| quoted as evidence of their disaPproval
| hat he has preached only in one Presby-
| terrain church in London. But a better
reason lies In the fact that the 20 900 peo.
pie who crowded into Agricultural Hall
to hear him could not find room In any
| church in that city. And the correspond
ent of the Advocate says that more than
two thousand people were shut out en-
tirely at the first services he held In
London. Indeed, the desire to hear him
is so great that 1t has been found neces-
sary to charge one, two and three shlii-
ings sterling for seats.
THE BRIGHT SIDE OF THINGS.
+ The Liverpool Protestant Standard de-
votes four of its large columns to re-
port of his lecture in Philharmonic Hall,
In that city, on "The Bright Side OF
Things" and follows the American idea
In its headings of"TremendOus crowds"
"An enthusi astic reception" "Thunders
of applause" sc. The Standard gives
the Doctor a very complimentary edito-
rial notice, and IN q personal description
= of him il says that the upper portion OF
his face bears most decidedly the impress
of more than Ordinary intellectually land
y adds:-"We have never see man poss
essed of such transcendent talents asthost
owned by DR.. Talmage who carried then

A Joy itself thah when 1t Is made the mean

y No wonder that the dignified English

TUESDAY, JULY -, 1879.

TNcRrAsE OF THE PUBLIC DEBIT
While John Sherman in his fortiAno
sossch. and elsewhere claims that ne mas
efyectsd saving to the Government OF
tan millions of dollars by the reminding
process, he ignores the fact that there has
been q startling increase in the puoic
asba aimee he has had charge OF the 'rrea-
sury Department.
Gen. Thomas Ewing, in the speech be
made few days ago on arriving a. his
bome In Ohio, showed from the official
Treasury report that the interest on the
public debt paid in 1877 was $s7, ,l25,ooo,
and last wear $lO2, SOC, 900, and this year
slO5, 900, 600. In other words, in 1878
and 1879 over $ls, 900, 900 more Of inter
est ON the debt has been paid than when
Mr.. Sherman took charge of the funding
operstion. That large sum is what the
operation cost. 1t is made up OF
bonuses in the shape of double interest
and of commissions paid to the Syndi-
cate.
Meantime Mr.. Sherman has increased
the principle of the bonded debt $so'ooo'-
600, It will take the savings OF interest
BY refunding for eight years to pay on
this increased bonded debt and the
bonuses and double interest, and to get
even on the entire operation. Thus it
will appear that the ten millions which
Mr.. Sherman boasts he has saved to the
Government, and three millions more,
went into the pockets of the bondhold-
ers and the Syndicate, which the bone
and sinew of the country will have to be
taxed TO pay.
Gen. Ewing further shows that after
all the $4,000, 100000 of taxes paid by
the people since 1866, after the nominal
reduction ofthe public debt $52s, 100000
and after the refunding so far accom-
plished, the public debt of the United
States to-day is far greater burden OF
the people than it was before the frs
dollar of it was paid.
Measure it by the things which hav'
to be sold to pay it-by pork, corn
wheat, beef, horses, labor it takes fift,
per cent. more of labor or land or pre-
ducts to pay the interest to-day than
took five years ago. How is the countr
benefited by nominal reduction of $40
100000 of interest, when the reductio
has been accomplished only by adding !
per cent. TO the amount of labor or pr
perty which it takes to pay it9
Will Mr.. John Sherman rise and e
plain? Or will he shuttle and wrige
rs he did in his puerile effort to ward I
the trenchant blows dealt against
corrupt Department by the Glover Coz
mittee He or no one else can succes
fully answer Gen. Ewing's questions al
deductions. They are unanswerab
and should be treasured up by the pc
pie upon whom the burden falls of su
porting Sherman's expensive operatio
TO enrich the favored class-the mon
dealers.

No STATESMAN EVER got so much
credit, in spite Of his blunderHg, as
John Sherman, the present Secretary of
the Treasury. His blunder in demone-
tizing silver, as a party leader, would
have destroyed his prospects in any
party that was not suffering from a crop
Of corrupt leaders so numerous that it
feared to turn from one cunning rogue |
lest it might find on its hands worse
one without his cunning ability to cover
up his tracks.
Sherman did all man could do to
prevent greenbacks going up to par; he
did it intentionally, since he is no fool.
He kept silver out of circulation as legal
tender money for years, to enable bro
kers TO buy gold and sell it again to
merchants to pay duties; and when
Congress ordered the Bland dollar coined
Sherman refused to allow it to circu-
late in competition with gold. Had he
not kept silver below par as legal
tender money, greenbacks would have
gone to par year or two earlier, with
out running in debt for gold. Not salts
fed with thus trifling with the currency
OF the people, when he found that gleen-
backs were going up to par with gold, in
spite OF all he could do in anticipation
OF the issue of silver legal tender dol
lars, John Sherman committed the un.
paralleled folly Of contracting to buy
fifty millions of gold at II cents pre-
MUM, when gold had sold daily in tbt
market at half per cent. He had ther
over one hundred millions of gold ant
silver in the treasury and yet he ruI
the nation into fifty million dollars NOR
OF bonded debt with the premium ad
ded, when the gold was already dru
In the treasury, which he could not ge
rid of. And two or these three huI
dred of millions of dollars remain il
government hands yet, and there the
are likely to remain. Barring th
small difference, millions of this gol
which Sherman bought and paid pr
MUM for never was actually put I'M
The U. s. Treasury; it is left just whe
1t was when Sherman bought it, in tt
banks of the Syndicate, or such BAN
as Sherman selects to hold it Il; and the
banks do business upon it just the san
- they did before the Syndicate sold
to Sherman for the Government. Nc
