The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1882-04-20

On Thursday, Capt W. H. Howgate, who
has been confined for some months in the city
Jail at Washington, on account of his inability
to procure the amount of bail required by the
court for his appearance to answer the charg'
made against him in connection with his ad
ministraton of the financial affairs of the Uni
ted Signal Service, escaped from his guards in
manner very similar to the leg bail of the
late VIM. Tweed. Upon representations made
by his counsel to the court permission was
granted Capt Howgate to visit his home, in
company with guard, and look up some pa
pers. One of the most trusted deputies was
detailed to act as escort Upon arriving at
Capt. Howgate's home, the deputy kept his
prisoner in sight until it was nearly time to re-
turn. A few minutes before the hour appoint.
ed for return of the prisoner to Jail, Capt.
Howgate stepped into an adjoining room
leaving his guard with newspaper A mo-
ment or two later, the prisoner not returning,
the guard asked for him, and was told by
Capt. Howgate's daughter that her father had
gone to take walk and would be back direct
ly The guard Immediately took in the situa-
ton, and rushed to the nearest station to give
the alarm But it was too late, Capt. How
gate had escaped and no clue to his wherea,
bouts could be found
A violent storm swept over a portion Of
Louisiana last week, tearing houses to pieces
and destroying fences, provision, furniture,
and everything previously saved from the
flood. Great distress prevailed the in ill-fated
district, and help is badly needed. In Iberia
Parish at least 800 persons are left homeless
and without means of support or shelter. A
correspondent of the New Orleans Pcayune
writing from New Iberia, says "The situation
here is appalling. The height of the food
above tidewater was nearly seventeen feet.
The east side of the Teche, from Loreauville
to Pattersonville, one hundred miles in
straight line north and south, is lake, ex-
tending from east to west to the high ridges of
the Bayou Laforce, fifty miles wide. The
losses in crops, stock, &C., are enormous. The
storm of Wednesday last swept away forty
houses at Fausse Point Corn cribs were float
ed off with contents. The destruction is great
on lower Teche plantation of DR.. Sanders
Cabins were blown down and floated off In
New Iberia all establishments situated near the
bayou are overfowed; also many residences
heretofore considered far above overflow"

cause why they failed to levy tax to pay
the interest due on Kansas City and Mem
phis Railway Bonds. The bonded debt with
interest accrued amounts to 100000. The
citizens of Greene county declare that they
will not pay these bonds, and farmers have
organized, calling themselves Brothers of
Freedom, to resist the payment of the tax.
When the land is sold for taxes they pro-
pose to buy it in for 81 and declare openly
that the climate of Greene county will not
be healthy for any person who bids higher.
What Mr.. Massey expects to gain by an
effort to defeat the re-apportionment bill,
we cannot see, except to secure the election
OF five or six Bourbons to Congress. Were
the bill to fail, and Mr.. Massey to take the
field for Congressman at large, he would
have sadly realized sense of the extent
OF his detection. The people are in earnest
in their purpose TO- root out Bourbonism in
Virginia, and any side show, like that Mr..
Massey's candidacy would indicate, to draw
either Republican or Readjuster votes from
this object, would be very effectively sat
down upon. Mr.. Massey could not, as an
independent Readjuster Bourbon, command
five thousand votes in full poll of the en-
tire strength of both parties. The Bour-
bons would have their candidate and would
support him to man, and so with the coal
ition, for there are very few Republicans so
much dissatisfied with the reckless and self
is1 greed of the Readiusters for office, as
to prefer the election of Bourbon to
coalitionist. The grievances of Mr.. Massey
cannot be magnitied into an overshadowing
calamity to the State. Unless there be
some absolute and tangible wrong perpe-
trated, greater than that of Bourbon rule
which would be next to impossible the
forces engaged to make grand funeral of
Bourbon fossils next fall, will not be in the
least disturbed by Mr.. Massey's tears and
sighs.
