very fact that a prohbitory law was actually con-
sidered is a victory In the British house of COM

cesstul efforts of the fanatics to induce

bills of that character. So succeeded

Young Women In a Whielwind.
From the American Iia) Reunblican

Mr.. u. 5. Baisden gives us the follow.
ing story Of a whirlwind that visited
his place about twelve o'cloce on Mon.
day, soaring all hands and some visit,
ors.. very badly. A whirlwind occurred
in a twelve-acre cornfield that was
about four feet in diameter and some,
times hundred feet high. The body
of 1t was perfectly black, with fire in the
centre and emitted sulphurous vapor
that could be smelt three hundred yards
from it. The whirlwind would divide
into three and move rapidly over the
field, twisting up the corn stalks by the
roots and carrying them up. These
three minor whiriwinds would come to-
gether with Il loud crash, cracking and
burning and shoot high into the heavens.
Three young ladies who were visiting
Mrs. Bais,leu went in about $50 feet to
observe it, but received such a shower
of burning sand upon their faces and
necks that they ran aff'righted to the
house. Mr.. Baisden says that he can
not account for this strange phenome-
non and it certainly frightened all who
saw it. The strange part was that 1t
contained fire yet did not appear to burn
the corn that it did not tear up, and its
sulphurous vapor sickeded and burnt
all who got close enough to get full
breath OF it.

A Travelling Evangelist.

A blind man, surrounded by crowd
cf unruly children, wandered along
Fifth street last evening. The stranger
was travelling evangelist from Balti-
more. He arrived in this city yester-
day morning, and, after securing Doaru
at the United States hotel, went out
upon the streets and commenced sing.
ing hymns copies of hich he had for
sale. He sang fora considerable length
of time, but had, about eight o'clock
last night, received only twenty-five
cents. Twenty-one years ago he was
employed as u carpenter, but, untor-
tunately, he was attacked by measles
and erysipelas, and became blind. For
the last four years he has been travelling
as an evangelist, it being the only
means by which he could support his
wife and three small children, who are
now living in Baltimore. He is fifty.
one years of age and is a member of the
Methodist church. He will remain in
this city several days, and will go from
here to either Bloomington or Trenton,
n. ). He hopes our citizens will be
little more liberal than they have been.
