The Tornado Of 1878.

The Tornado Of 1873.
Ex-State Geologist, Rev. John
Murrish having had his attention
called 10 m article recently pub
hshcd in these columns, touching
"Thc Tornado of lS7S" writes to u
friend in this city rs follows;
My nrAG SlR Your favor ot'
the 10Th inst i received, also Il
copy Of the Iowa County Democrat.
In reading the article ON the first
page treating ON the Tornado of last
Summer, paused will thcmsidcrahlc
interest on the reference to Il sup
posed relation between the origin,
and course of the phenomena, and
the supposed mineral belts of that
region. The same idea occurred to
me at the time Of il similar occur
renee 1T Hazel Green Il few wears
ago under very similar oircum-
stances.
Now, il may hc true, rs Prof.
Daniels says, that there is no
reason to suppose that the atmos-
phcrlc conditions giving rise to
the storm originated at the point
where the storm in its fury started
Nevertheless there mny hc som,
reason, ut least to suppose that Il
storm having its origin in atmos-
phcric conditions, may, when com
ing III contact with terrestrial con-
ditions, such ~ magnetic or electro
+ magnetic currents in the cartl's
crust, be So intensified as to be
changed from IN ordinary thunder
storm to II tornado, Certainly no
thoughtful man, that is, u man who
is accustomed to observe natural
phenomena, to weigh and classify
facts, and To refer them 10 their laws
can be satisfied for II moment, with
the theory that the phenomena Of
the tornado can be explained by
currents of wind having their origin
in atmospheric conditions alone.
Such is the nature, and effect Of this
force upon objects in its pathway,
that ] could almost as soon with,
superstition, refer il to demoniac
influence; or with dogmatic theol-
ogy to divine displeasurc, as 10 any
force Of wind having its origin in
ordinary atmospheric conditions,
And yet this strange phenomena
must have n cause somewhere; not
certainly in the supernatural but
III the natural; hence il il the
duty Of man and the woIk of
science 10 look it up. ! have no
theory, at present, 10 offer upon
this question, but feel il 10 be u
part Of my lifc-work, as il 10 yours,
TO observe carefully the facts in our
possession; 10 weigh and arrange
them in the order that nature sug-
gcsts, and form them into theory
when truth will admit Of ii.
In the study Of these strange
phenomena, two elements come i'm
10 play, which belong respectively
70 the domain Of sense, and the
domain Of thought. In the first
il is our duty 10 observe carefully,
and To record the facts. In the
second place il is our work TO ar
range and classify those facts in
their natural order. 50 that we can
refer them safely % the principles,
or laws that undcrlies them as their
cause"
We may make further extracts
from Mr.. Murrish's very thought
! FIJI and suggestive letter at another
time.

Our Tenure of Life

Depends in great measure upon our regard
for or neglect of the laws of health. If we
violate them we can not expect TO make
old bones" But that the span OF existence
allotted to naturally delicate constitution,
or one which has been shaken by disease
may be materially heightened, is a fact of
which we have daily proof. The vivifying
and restorative influence of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters upon a failing physique
affords a striking illustration of the power
Of judicious medication to strengthen the
hold ON life. Restored digestion, complete
assimilation, renewed appetite, sound re-
pose, these are among the benefits conferred
upon the debilitated by that supreme reno
want With a circulation enriched, frame
nvgorated, and nervous system tranquil
lied, the invalid after course of the Bit
ters, feels that his life tenure is no longer
the precarious thing that it was-that he
may yet enjoy green old age"

LAwLEss TRAMPs IN PENNSYLVANIA.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 9.-Pike Township,
Berks County, was the scene of an afro
cious tramp murder on Monday morning.
A young miner named James Botz, while
returning from dancing party, was way
laid by gang OF tramps, to whom he had
previously refused to give money, and
dubbed TO death. At last accounts no ar
rests had been made.
Parties of disguised tramps boldly break
into farmers houses, bind and gag the in
mates, and then leisurely proceed to rob
the premises, after which they frequently
add additional atrocity to their crimes by
outraging and numbering the female in
mates. Two cases of this kind have tran
spired in the city of Lancaster, Mr.. and
Mrs. Brubaker and their daughter and
John Carney and his family being the suf-
ferers

body had been found at the bottom of a
deep we'll on his farm, in which there is
thirty feet of water. A heavy substance
was moved at the bottom with graphing
irons, but nothing brought TO the surface.
A steam engine has been engaged TO pump
the water from the WE'LL and this work will
begin to-day.
