stock and houses. The first, evidently a con-

noon about four o'clock. Fortunately no lives
were lost, though several persons were injured
by the falling debris
The storm, though devastating in its course
was not devoid of ludicrous Incidents. A
negro driving a wagon was dislodged from his
position and thrown of into the chimney OF a
house Just blown away. AS fate would have it

unhurt beyond q few scratches
The telegraph wires were blown down be-

The Congressman who struts and frets his
little hour upon the stage might humbly ex-
claim with Rip Van Winkle: "How soon
we are forgotten when we are gonel" In
his late address Mr.. Blaine said that Garfield
was nine times or eighteen years success
cessively chosen to the House. an honor not
enioYed by more than six other Representa-
tiyes of more than 5000 who have been
elected from the organization of the gov
ernment to this hour. A correspondent of
the Louisville C6aIrieT-s0ltTRGl saws that
more than twenty have served IS long. or
longer than Garfield did. Thomas Newton,
OF Virginia, sat twenty-eight years in Con
Rress-ten years more than GARFIELD;
Nath. Macon, of North Carolina, served
twenty-four years; Lewis Williams, OF the
same State, twenty-seven years: Mercer, OF
Virginia, twenty-four wears; Glddings, OF
Ohio, and Mccoy, of Virginia, twenty two
years. Three were elected for twenty years;
six, including John Quincy Adams, were
elected as often as Garfield, etc. This is q
sad blow to the Congressman who puts in
nearly all OF his time trying to get himself
elected, Instead OF striving TO make himself
distinguished for his usefulness while he
stays there. Suppose Garield's fame had
depended entirely upon the fact that he
was elected nine times. Blaine would never
have had any materials for a memorial
address.
