A CAREFUL account of the tornadoes
and destructive storms of this year has
just been published by the United States
Signal Service. The report shows that
tornadoes were of almost daily occurrence
during the month of June. As the re-
suit $50 people lost their lives, 400 ave
been wounded, and property valued at
SIS. 600, 900 has been destroyed. The
most terrific storm was that in Iowa, which
destroyed the town OF Grinnell. Examin-
alton of heavy articles, such as stones
and railroad cars, lifted by this storm,
shows that the force of the wind within
the vortex was about 200 pounds to the
square foot. Professor McComber, of
Ames College, who prepared the report
on the destruction of Grinnell, says that
it is unnecessary to introduce electricity
as a factor. The wind was sufficient to
do all the damage. The electric display
was merely an incident.

The forward movement of British
forces from Alexandria Monday into the
anterior, where Arab and his Egyptian
Arabs are intrenched, was in the nature
of diminishing expedition, resulting in
driving the Egyptians out of the small
town of Ramleh, a short distance from
Alexandra, and its occupation by the
British. The British will attack Arab
IN his intrenchments as soon as they can
transport their heavy artillery within
striking distance.

TELEGRAPHER'S UNION.

The organization known as the CUNT
ed Telegraphers of North America, start
ed in Pittsburg within a few months,
seems to be fourishing remarkably liz
other cities, but the local organization is
In not very prosperous condition. The
telegraph operators in this city formed a
branch of the order under the direction
of visiting telegrapher of Pittsburg, and
cons derable enthusiasm was manifested
for short time For the last two months
the organization has suffered from the
dwindling away of interest on the part
of the members, some of whom have not
attended the meetings. The organic
alton as whole is trying to make SIM
ultaneous attack all along the line against
the institutions known as telegraph col
leges." These institutions have, SO the
United Telegraphers claim, been estab.
Iished to educate country boys and girls
in the art Of telegraphy in order to fur.
nish operators to take the place of the
Irregular" ones who have served appren
ticest Ups in an Office. They have, in
fact been started to fight the United Tel
egraphers, and the latter propose to fight
b OK by demands, which will be made

The order known as the brotherhood oil
Telegraphers" have gradually given away
before the new organization, and few
days ago dissolved the council at meet
ing in Chicago, and went over in body
to the United Telegraphers When the

Mr. Miller. In the limited time al
lowed me it is impossible for me to dis
cuss the questions that have been pre-
scented in this debate in order to
demonstrate that polygsny and the
practices under it are dangerous to the
civil as we'll as the religious institutions
Of ,his country. It is not necessary that
it should be done. As early ss the For
tieth Congress committee appointed by
the House, and which considered that
question, said;
"Polygamy Is synonymous with big.
amy. Bigamy is under our law crime
and pelygamy is monstrous bigsmy.'
1t further said;
"Polygsmy prevails in spite Of express
laws of the United States, in open Outrage
of every sacred family tie, contr llinG
the social organization ofthe community
and shaming the sense of propri ~ e
long and we'll established among al
/ races Of Europeans on this continent"

in a temperance lecture: Last

shaking with chills one morning.
The keepers ran down to the village

ily returning, three gallons were
given to each elephant. Fortunately
i cured them. They liked the artifi-

morning when the keeper came TO
them he found both elephants sbak-
inc with might and main. No you
DON'T he shouted, you are well
enough to-day and they stopped
shaking"

his works, that the general public at
times, like the individual, become sf-
feeeed With the gripes. The public &C.
cstlonsllY are affected with species OF
moral gripeg, which seems to have
broken out about this time, and mani
tests disposition to vent itself upon the
chinese and the Mormons. As shall

OF otherwise, upon this subject.

General Trade.

The leading features of trade during
the past week has been an advance Of
Zoe per barrel on cornmeal, &c per
pound on bacon, / to &c on dry salt
meats, and lard has been 10 to l5c
per hundred weight higher, but eased
off at the close. All of the foregoing
articles exhibit a largely increased
demand, and dealers have found it
difficult to keep up with their orders.
Heavy shipments are reported from
packing points to supply the increas
ing conSumptive demand for meats,
but the movement of provisions in
other directions has been light, Oar
local mills have had all they could
do, running night and day, to supply
the demand for cornmeal. The i'm
ports the past week were only 300
barrels. Over $500 sacks of corn has
been received here the past week, and
the plantation demand is large. Prices
for this cereal have fallen 24c per
bushel in the West and are a shade
lower here. Oats are likewise in liberal
movement, 1900 sacks having arrived,
and prices are also lower here and
elsewhere. Seed oats are in
good supply, several carloads
selling at SO to Coo for black and
zoe for red rust proof. Bran has
moved in small quantities, only $50
sacks having arrived, and prices are
fully sustained. Hay is easy, especially
for Western timothy, which meets
slow sale at a shade lower figures.
Southern prairie is coming in freely,
and meets good demand. Flour is
wholly unchanged, the weeks re-
ceipts being 1900 bbls. A better de-
mand is expected to spring up shortly,
Seed potatoes are in request, while
table stock is Stacking of. Re-
