SNOW TWENTY-FIVE FEET DEEP.

La Cross, Wis, Feb. 6-Probably no
time IN twenty years have the people Of
southern Minnesota and this vicinity ex-
pelienced so severe winter as this. A
regular blizzard extending throughout
southern Minnesota is. raging to-day;
The railroads are entirely blockaded and
all communication cut off ex-
cept sixty miles west of this city.
People are using barns, fences. deserted
houses, and everything that will burn
for fuel. The railroads fear the farmers
will burn their trestle bridge before fuel
can be got to them, as they are now
dong on the Winona & st. Peter rail-
way. All efforts to keep roads clear
prove unsuccessful.

the Bishops property in Knox

the drought In that part of the State is
Unprecedented. The older Inhabitants

in that case the cessation Of rainfalls

The consequence is That most Of the corn
ceased growing and topped at two or
three feet high, producing nothing, or at

the waterfamine is operating in other

The Falls of Abrams Creek.
HAMILTON INSTITUTE, VA.,l
Sept. 9th, 1881.

MIR. EDITOR;
About four miles South East of
Mendoza, in this county, there is some
of the most picturesque scenery that
can be found in Southwestern Virginia
or East Tennessee
Not knowing whether you or many
readers of your valuable paper have
ever visited this beautiful spot of nature,
| will giye,you a brief description Of its
scenery apd the majestic heights which
surround it.
The prccipice over which the main
current of the stream falls is some
sixty feet high, then dashing over small
er cataracts the water goes bounding and
foaming some fifty or sixty yards farther
before reaching the more quiet bed of
the stream. About forty yards North
East of the main current there is Il
smaller stream that falls from height
Of eighty or ninety feet 70 mingle its
beaten spray with the roaring waters
below; while ON either side of the stream
the lofty heights whose surfaces are
cmbclished with the loyclest scenery,
seems to kiss the sky.
Nature has so constructed II rs to
the most tasteless class Of humanity,
This romantic spot Of earth, with all its
charms and faCnations will, in the near
future, become favoritc resort for the
tourist and artist. We were not aware
until lately that Washington County
could boast OF place 40 richly enchant-
ed with the paintings Of nature.
On the 18Th Of last month jolly party
of "the young and the gay" left Men
dota enroute Tor these Falls. Getting a
late start We reached the place Of our
destination about o'clock, P NJ, with
our appctitcs whctted TO something near
the sharpness Of razor for the dinner
that we were sure was in the baskets, by
having had TO carry the same about half n
mile from where we left our horses and
vehicles. Here the fairer hands of our
party soon spread out upon huge tables
Of stone n feast Of which n king might
think himself lucky to have pNrlakcu.
After spending Joyous evening we
returned 10 Mendoza just as the Inst sun
beams were kissing the mountains and
hill-tops an ufectlonate goodnight, long
10 remember the "golden hours on
eagles wings" that had flown so rapidly
and swcetly away. E.
