Formation of ,hs Storm, in the Mi..i.spps valley.

In the season of hot weather in the
central part of the Mississippi valley
there often come SUGGESTIONS of days
when the atmosphere is not stirred by
the winds, but remains as still as the air
of G cave. Despite the steady gain in
the heat, the sky stays cloudless, or at
most is fecked by those light clouds tina.
lie i've miles or more above the surface
of the earth. All nature seems cowed
beneath the fervent heat, yet there is
nothing of distinct portent in earth or
air. At last, toward evening there may
be seen sudden curdling of the west
ern sky; in few minutes the clouds
gather, coming from nowhere, growing
at once in the lurid air. In less than
half an hour the forces of the storm are
organized, and its dreadful advance be-
gins. II we were just beneath the gath
ering clouds we should find that the air
over space mile or SO in diameter
was spinning around in q great whirl-
pool, and, while the revolving mass
slowly advanced, the central part moved
rapidly upwards. Beginning slowly, all
the movements of the storm, the whirl-
ing action, the vertical streaming of the
air, its onward movement, all gain speed
of motion with astonishing rapidity. In
minute or two some cubic miles OF air
are in state of intense gyratory move
ment, mounting upward as violently as
the gases over volcano. To replace
this strong, whirling uprush, there is an
indraught from every side towards the
center of the whirlwind; and, as the
center moves quickly forward, the rush
of air is strongest from behind towards
the advancing hurricane. The rate at
which the storm goes forward is very
variable, though it is generally as much
as forty to 100 miles an hour, but this
is not the measure of its destructive
power. The rending effect of the storm
is much greater than would be given by
simple blast of air moving at this
speed Much of this peculiar capacity
for destruction may perhaps be due to
the gyratory motion of the wind in the
storm center, which on one side of the
whirlwind adds the speed arising from
its circular movement to the tranSlatory
velocity of the whirlwind itself. Some
of the records tell us that houses with
closed windows have been known to
burst apart, as If from an explosion OF
gunpowder, while others that had their
doors and windows wide open, remained
essentially unframed. 1t has been con-
jectured that this action may be due to
sudden rarefaction of the air on the
outside of the building; but this cause
cannot be sufficient to produce such eff
fects, and if such explosions occur the
cause must be looked for elsewhere
After the storm is once developed, it
seems very quickly to acquire its max
imum of destructive power and its speed
of translation. At the outset and dur
ing the period of most efficient action
the strip of country affected is generally
very narrow, not often exceeding mile
in width; as the storm advances the path
seems gradually to grow wider, and the
gyratory movement, as well as the trans
Iatory motion of the meteor less con-
siderable, until at last it fades into an
ordinary thunderstorm or dies into a
calm.

In paper read before the Paris So
ciete de Medicine, M. Chervin points
out that, while up to the census OF 1860
the colored population of our Southern
states numbered 4,8S0,000. in that of
1880 it had increased to 6,557, Isl, an
augmentation of IS per cent. He regards
this as an important fact because lit has
always been hitherto admitted that
when an inferior race comes in contact
with superior one, it must disappear
sooner or later, on account of the excess
of deaths over births" M. Chervin re-
CARDS liberty and agricultural prosperity
as the underlying cause of the happy
results above mentioned.

of a banking firm in this city, taking
advantage of the depreciation caused by
the failure to pay interest, bought S146,

out of the treasury, and the banker sold

Driven to Death.

The Memphis (Tenn. Aoalanche says:
A letter from Georgetown, Ohio, gives
the reason why Edward Young, of that
place, committed suicide in this city.
Young, who is represented as a quiet
and peaceable citizen, was assaulted at
Georgetown several months ago by three
men armed with knives and pistols. He
drew his revolver and shot two of them
dead and badly injured the third. He
was tried and acquitted, but the recol-
lection of the tragedy seemed to prey
upon his mind continuously, producing
a settled melancholy, from whish moth
ing could arouse him. He finally left
Georgetown and went to Cincinnati,
where he got position as street car
conductor. But the change of place
brought no relief. Every time pas
senger looked at him he is quoted as
saying that it seemed to him the stranger
made the mental note: "There's that
Young who killed those men at George
town." AT last this thought became
unbearable. He threw up his job and
came to Memphis, where, in the solitude
of his room at the Worsham House, he
sought rest in self-murder.

THE TWO GLASSES.

There sat two glasses, filled to the brim,
On rich mans table. rim to rim;
One was ruddy and red as blood,
And one was clear as a crystal food.
Said the glass OF wine to the paler brother,
" Let us tell the tales of the past to each other
can tell of banquet, and revel. and mirth,
And the purest and grandest souls on earth
Fell under my touch as though struck by
blight,
Where was King for ruled in might
From the heads of kings have torn the crown
From the heights of fame have hurled men
down;
have blasted many an honored name;
l have taken virtue and given shame;
have tempted the youth with a sip, taste,
That has made his future barren waste
Far greater than any King am l.
Or than any army beneath the sky;
l have made the arm OF the driver fail,
And sent the train from the iron rail;
have made good ships go down at sea.
And the shrieks of the lost were sweet to me,
For they said, Behold how great you be;
Fame, strength, wealth, genius before you fall,
For your might ana power are over ALL
Ho no! pale brother" laughed the wine,
"Can You boast of deeds as great as mine?'
Said the water glass, Il cannot boast
or king dethroned or a murdered host,
But l can tell of heart, once sad,
By my crystal drops made light and glad
OF thirsts I've quenched. of brows I've laved,
or hands have cooled, of souls have saved.
1 have leaped through the valley dashed down
the mountain,
Flowed in the river and played in the fountain,
Slept in the sunshine and dropped from the
sky,
And everywhere gladdened the landscape and
eye;
1 have eased the hot forehead of fever and
pain;
l have made the parched meadows grow fer
tile with grain;
/ can tell Of the powerful wheel of the mill
That ground out the -four and turned at NV
will;
can tell Of manhood debased by you,
That lifted up and crowned anew;
cheer, help, l strengthen and and:
gladden. the heart of man and maid;
set the chained wine captive free.
And all are better for knowing me-"
These are the tales they told each other
