Political Notes..

1t is at last definitely settled that there is a
republican majority Of % on joint ballot In the
new legislature Of oregon, against a democratic
majority of last year.
The democrats Of the 10Th Illinois district
have renominated R. W. Townshend for Con-
gress by acclamation.
The favorite tipple of the bibulous part of the
democracy for the summer will be the Hancock
tails.
Governor Hoyt, Of Pennsylvania, declares that
there is not the slightest probability that the
democrats can carry that state. "The demo-
cratic party" he says, "weakens Hancock
to greater extent than he strengthens it."
Gen. r. X. Dawes has been nominated for
Congress by the republicans of the 18th Ohio
district, now represented by Gen. Warner.

THE BROKEN LEvEES.

CHICAGO. July IA special dispatch from
Quincy, Illinois. to the Times says that the
most intense excitement prevails in that pOr-
ucn OF the country inundated by the breaking
OF the Sny levee. This embankment protected
an extent Of country 20 miles long and from
to 12 miles wide Yesterday fully one third of
this area was under water. The crevaSSe at the
Cincinnati landing is half a mile wide. and
other breaks have occurred. Mr.. Freeman and
his family, who were reported drowned, were
Seved. but there are others who are believed TO
have been lost. Horses, cattle and other stock
have been drowned, houses and barns swept
away. and crops DESTROYED. The state fish
ponds near Fall Creek have been Obliterated
and several hundred thousand fine fish washed
out by the flood. No estimate of the amount of
damage done by the flood can be made at pres
ent but 1t is safe to state that the total loss In
this locality will be upwards of 100000.
