THE FINAL SMASH Ut.

IL IS BOOd tnlNg 10 DC DEFINITE and
accurate. In weddings, funerals,
earthquakes and the destruction OF
planets it is desirable to have the day
fixed. Daniel and St. John are too
vague and indefinite as to tlmo. Even
Mother Shipton got no nearer than to
fix the year. But now prophet has
been discovered who fixes the very day.
An exchange says:
The latest one unearthed is the pre-.
tended prophecy Of one Leonardo Are
tino, who lived in the fourteenth cen
tury, and left IL queer warning. which
the Roman papers claim to have just
discovered and now publish. 1t is said
to he found in the fifth volume of bis
"Aluila Volante, and is thus sumar.
lied and translated into modern Er.
Glls!' vernacular by contemporary
1.-THE end Of all things will occur on the
18th of November, 1851. The course of
destruction will last fifteen days: on
the first day the sea will overflow its
boundaries, and on the second will pen.
citrate even to the center of the earth.
On the third day all river creatures,
and on the fourth day all sea creatures
will perish. On the lifti, day the birds
will die. the sixth the houses fall in, OH
the seventh the rocks will lie cleft, or
the eighth there will be !, great earth.
quake. OH the ninth all the mountains
will fall in, on the tenth al men will
become dumb, on the eleventh the
graves will be opened, on the twelfth il
will rain stars, on the thirteenth al
men will die. on the fourteenth heaven
and earth will he burned, and finally on
the fifteenth will follow the resurrec
ton and the day of Judgment.
WHAT DOES ITSIGNIFY?
Intelligence received from the War.
ner Observatory, Rochester, n. Y, an.
nounc-s the discovery of q new comet
located in the constellation Of Virgo.
It is Il striking coincidence that this
new and bright comet appeared At the
same hour President Garfield was
breathing his last It was first seen by
f. =. Barnard III Nashville, Tenn,
who has made claim throng III Prof.
Swift for the Warner prize of $500 in

since May first. and If this number
four have appeared from almost the
SAME spot in the heavens.

the railroad meeting held on Friday
last at which the initial steps were
taken toward securing the Burlington,
Cedar Rapids & Northern Railroad, or,
more properly, the Cedar Rapids, Iowa
Falls l. Northwestern: as this end of
the road is called. The matter has at
length taken practical shape. and the
road can be had by paying the small
bonus offered by our citizens, as we
have no doubt the company will accept
the offer, unless they conclude to go to
Sibley. We believe that it is now in
the power of the people of Worthington
aud Indian Lake townships, by voting
five per cent bonus and donating the
right Of way and depot grounds, to Sc
cure the long-desired coal road and al
together the most advantageous rail-
road that has so far pointed in this d.

THE FUNERAL.

The remains of President Garfield
were deposited in the Cemetary. at
Cleveland, on Monday last. The pro-
cession was about five miles in length
and was witnessed by 10000 people.
In nearly every city and hamlet Of tho
country memorial services were held,
and as Garfield's Inauguration was the
most imposing ever witnessed in our
history. 50 the funeral services were the
most imposing and general ever held in
the nation. It was not because Gar
field was our greatest and best man,
but because the circumstances were
never more favorable for calling out
universal horror and profound love and
sympathy. OF all the assassinations of
history this one seems to have had the
least excuse, and we can only save our
selves from the bitterest excavations of
the wretch who did the foul deed, by
believing that he is insane and that he
is only few degrees above the brute in
moral responsibility. Yet we know
there was method III his madness.
Four Presidents assassinated in our
brief history (f Harrison and Taylor
were poisoned as was believed by those
who knew the inside history of their
death,) should set the American people
to thinking seriously concerning some
change in our system which will make
it impossible for any man or party to
gain a point by assassination. Harri-
son and Taylor are supposed to have
been the victims of the spirit of slavery;
Lincoln, we know, was the victim of
sectional hate and strife,:. and Gar
field is the victim Of the spoils system
and of party faction. Cannot some
change be made in our executive sys-
TEN which will rem ove the temptation
to assassination?

High Water.

Chicago, 1S.-The rainfall all over
the northwest continues. and
troubles of high water seem increas-
ing. At Quincy fears of the break
ing of Say levee is again imminent,
the water being as high as last
June. 1t is being repaired in weak
spots. AT noon the sun is out here,
and there is little better prospect
for the cessation of rain elsewhere.
At Keokuk, at 10 this morning, the
water was only two inches below
the great high water mark of last
spring. The prospects are that
Alexandria. town Ave miles below
there, will be completely inundated.
A prominent river man believes the
river will rise another foot, and that
the greatest rise in history is upon
as.
st. Louis, 1S.-Despatches from
along the Upper Mississippi note
high water at various places. and a
flood seems to be apprehended. Al
Hannibal the river is only about a
foot below the freshet of last spring
Railroad tracks on the levee are
submerged, and the easements IN
South Hannibal are filled with
water. Several miles of the KeOkuk
and st. Louis Railroad is under
water, and a number of washouts
have taken place. Some levee
which broke last spring and caused
the inundation of several thousand
acres of farming land, and the de
struction of much valuable property
is again in danger, and if the water
rises two feet higher will give way,
At Davenport, Dubuque and other
places the water is encrOaching
upon the levees and river fronts
and fears are felt ter the safety Of
property.

LATEST TELEGRAMS.


San Francisco, 1S.-Astoria dis
patch: It was hoped the British
ship FeTtSqeZG2s, which went ashore
on Clatsop Spit on Sunday morning,
would be got off without much
trouble. A life boat from Fit.
Candy station boarded her the same
day. The weather was then calm,
and the prospects were good for
driving the ship over the spit int
the channel. The captain declined
to abandon the ship. Yesterday a
heavy southwest gale drove the ship
further up. The captain set sig
nal of distress, which was seen by
the steamer Gen. CANDY, on the way
to Astoria. AS soon as the news
reached here a party consisting of
several ship-maSters, returned on
the Candy, with a ship life buoy to
render assistance. The heavy gale
and sea made it impossible for a
boat or anything else to reach her.
The ship was then upright, with
sails set to drive her over the spit.
The CANDY has just returned with
news that she is now on her beam
ends, her spars gone and the crew
clinging to her sides. The CANDY is
now leaving with another life-boat
and volunteers, who will take off
the crew, if possible. Captain Har-
ris, of the life-boat station, has made
two unsuccessful attempts to-day to
reach her. The wind has moder-
ated and the sea is going down
some. 1t is hoped another attempt
will be successful.
Later-The tug Columbia has
just arrived with Captain Bubb and
the entire crew saved from the
wreck. The ship has gone to pieces

Must Eject GOrham and Rid
. dleberger.

New York, 28.- Worlds Washing
ton: There is no question, says a
republican senator, but what Cor
ham will be elected secretary of the
Senate. Malone, who is Gorham's
friend. will insist on his election
when the time comes. He has but
recently stated that he will vote for
iGorham and for no other person.
In other words the republicans, in
order to retain Mahone's vote, will
have to retain Gorham as their
nominee for secretary. Malone adj
heres to Gorham. The latter has
given him substantial aid when he
needed it in Virginia, and at a time
when it was not easy to find a USE
full friend. 1t is also true that Ma
hone will demand that Riddleberger
be retained as the nominee for ser
geant-at-arms. He has said that he
would vote for Gorham if no other
senator did, and, as he is not bound
by any caucus, republicans can
easily lose the Virginia readjusters
support whenever they set Gorham
aside
The duel recently fought by Rid
dleberger will not, it is thought
among democrats, deter the repub.
lican senators from voting for Rid.
