As will be seen by our telegrams o.day, the devastation wrought by foods is not being confined alone to
 he valley of the Mississippi and western streams. The Delaware liver is overAowing throughout its length, and the lower part of Mont- |treal is from two to ten feet under water. While this work of devasta- ton goes on east of the Rockies, the Facfhc coast is parching up for lack of its usual rainfall. The year of S82 bids fair to rival 'S1 in its me-

REPUBLICAN ORGANIZATION.

With commendable zeal the repub. licans of Cochise county are already preparing to wheel their forces into line and begin the march that must end in victory at the fall election. The executive committee of the re- publican club of Tombstone, the only republican organization extsnt in the new county, held meeting last eve- ming at the office of Dr. H. NJ. Mat thews, at which a number of promi- nentirepublicans were present. The sdviss6iffy and mode of 5ffppsTraaHeas ppsTraaHHeea.s. and thorough organization in the county was discussed at length. It ~xee.hing best to call meeting of the club and invite representation from all the precincts in the county, it was ordered that such call be made for April 8, 1882. It is to be hoped that harmony and concert of action will prev.ii throughout the campaign, and that each republican will feel that he has duty and influence which, if e*erted in timely and proper man. n er, will insure handsome majority t9 his party in the returns of Novem- Der next.

DIR. Jesse G.. Scott, who attended Hoffman,
was very much surprised to hear OF his
sudden recovery. Hc says Hoffman was
afflicted with hardening of the spinal
cords, COMPRISING the nervous fibers and
breaking the connections by which sensa-
tiOns are transmitted to the brain. When
he had exhausted every resource at his
command he took Hoffman before the
Washington County Medical Society,
which pronounced the case incurable. In
concluding his statement, DR.. Scott said:
Hoffman was on his knees last week, but
last night saw him walking. lilo Is of an
eycltable disposition, but strictly good
man, and | don't think he would practice
deception. have had no chance as yet to
make an examination, and as have said
before, the disease is considered incurable,
but the fact of his walking is the best EVIL
dence of his recovery" Hoffman has done
something IN the way of local preaching,
and is now travelling through Washington
and Greene counties telling nightly to
great crowds the story of his miraculous
restoration to perfect health.

Details OF the Miraculous Cure of RIchaid
H0fman---His Prayers Answered.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Nov. 1S.-The details
OF the apparently miraculous cure by pray
er of Richard Hoffman, a cripple OF Bent
already been briefly referred to, make a
wonderful story. Hoffman is 40 years old,
and was born near where he now lives
He is carpenter by trade, and very in
genlous mechanic. When Is years old he
sustained fall which injured his spine.
He suffered more or less until about five
years ago when he was compelled to REIN.
quish his trade, and had to use crutches to
assist HIM in walking. AS he grew weaker
his feet refused to support him, and for
about year he walked on his knees. AT.
ter that he travelled about in wheeled
chair, operated with levers, but finally he
became unable to sit up, even, and resorted
to the use of a continuance which was q
combination of chair and lounge, In which
he could sit erect or lie down as he felt
able. He designed both char and lounge
himself A year ago he was given up by
his physicians. who
PRONOUNCED HIM INCURABLE,
and said his death was only question of
time. About that time he read newspaper
accounts of remarkable cures of crIpples
near Erie, Pa, through the medium of
prayer. He opened correspondence with
them, and they confirmed the statements
he had read. Mrs. Ella Thompson and
Mrs Ward, of Erie, one of whom had been
an invalid for eighteen years, both wrote
him that they had been cured by prayer
II was long time, he says, before he
could bring himself TO have faith that
prayer could effect his cure, but eventually
such faith inspired him, and after CORES
pondence with the persons at Erie it was
mutually agreed that Thursday evening,
the 9th inst, should be devoted by them tr
prvyer for his recovery. That night he
says he crawled out in the dark and rain
on his knees to the wagon shed, where he
prayed for two hours. He felt that the
very door Of heavens m. roy was open, and
that he could see Jesus stretching forth
His hands to lift him from his inflrmiues.
When done praying he arose and walked
up hill some five rods, next up . flight OF
steps, nine in number, and then forty feet
across a porch and through kitchen into
the house, where he called his relatives TO
see
HIS WONDERFUL RESTORATION.
Ever since that day he has walked erect
and unaided, and has been constantly
growing In strength. The story Of Hoff
