DEATH OF GARIBALDl.-Gene Giu
seppe Garibaldi breathed his last on
June 2nd at Caprera, Italy, of acute
bronchitis. lie was born in 1907; pur-
sued the occupation of sailor in early
life, manitesting the restlessness of his
spirit and his great love OF adventure.
a: one time he participated in the rev.
olutions OF South America. In lS4S he
attached himself to the Italian cause,
and became distinguished as brave
and daring officer 10 numerous engage
ments. Few men have had more de-
voted friends and followers, who re-
yered and almost worshiped him during
life as a hero of incompatible bravery,
than Garibaldi.

,,,-ner'. Ferry. w. Wa sum.
Iner Resort.
By RIy. j. w. DUNJEE.

Il il strange that this point has not
haeu brought into more prominence as
lace of resort and comfort in summer.
oplv f(tv-two miles from Washington
and eighty from Baltimore, two cities
having a population of 100000 and be-
no,ninr more and more densely crowded
av.ry wear. The increased unhealthi-
ness of our large cities in summer,
caused by various malarial affections,
had water and impure air, makes it alb
,olutely necessary to preservation OF
health that one should have some pure
air during the hot summer months.
Harper's Ferry is splendidly located
TO supply this demand. 1t hasa climate
unsurpassed in its purity and fTeeness
from malarial poison, to which is added
the wonderful and most beautiful trav-
ersifca,ion of mountain scenery. Here
are mountains, hills and valleys in the
midst of the mighty waters OF two nv
,rs. which present to the view that
grandeur seldom seen in all the realms
of mountain picturesqueness and beauty.
The more prominent mountains aud ell
eya,ions are Maryland Heights, 1000
feet above the level; Loudoun Heights,
1000 feet, Camp Hill, Arsenal Hill and
Bolivar Heights.
From the tops of these mountains in
the months of June or July may be
seen waving fields of wheat and corn
stretching out on every hand as far as
the eve can reach. The scene is beau
titul beyond the power Of words to de
scribe it. To this charm is added an
almost constant breeze, so pleasant that
it fills one with inexpressble comfort
and yigor. No wonder Thomas Jetfer-
son observed that the scenery at Har-
pcr's Ferry was worth trip across the
Atlantic Ocean. The railroad facilities
are as good as can be found in America.
The main stem of the B. 81 O. r. K.
and the Winchester branch OF the same
pass directly through the place with the
most elegant palace cars, and every
comfort and convenience known to
railroad travel. Sleeping cars run from
here connecting with others to all
points. No company in this country
looks more to the comfort and convent
ence of'he travelling public than the
great b. Il 0. H. r. Co. If enterprise
aud capital could be brought into requl-
sition at this point thousands OF visitors
would be attracted here during the
summer months.
Harper's Ferry has many other at
fractions besides the beautiful mountain
scenery aud pure air. 1t has natural
history with which every school boy III
the laud is familiar. One may rove
amid its scenes aud historic spots a
week and forget to be weary. Island
Park, Browns Cave, Old Fort, Rat
Ting Springs, John Browns Fort, the
ruins Of L. S. Arsenal. the great Iron
Fridge. Storer College, JefeTson's
Rock and the ravincs between the
lnountsin peaks make this place one OF
the mos. desirable for those who leave
the city to seek pleasure and comfort III
the country. Money used 10 establish
a hrst-class hotel on Maryland Heights
would be well nycsted.-IinperS Fer

LITTLE Rock, March 29.-The Gaze les
Arkansas City special says: "The river has
fallen one inch to-day. The weather is
cool, and the water has receded sufficiently
in few places to permit blowing, and farm
ing operations, where permitted, are being
pushed vigorously forward. There is still
an Immense scope Of territory under water,
and at the present rate of fall will
remain so for two weeks. In the mean
time supplies furnished by the govern
ment are being forwarded 10 the
distressed. All cases Of actual want have
been supplied and no suffering for food is
known TO exist in this county or section.
Rstions for one weeks supply have bsen
issued, within which time additional supplies
are expected. A more cheerful feeling exists
among all classes, and the opinion is being
expressed that the worst is over"
The Times Democrats Troy, La, special
says: THE water here is three feet ard ten
inches above the ri'e of 1874 boat, res
cuing cattle, Is supposed to have gone down
in the storm of Monday, on Catalonia lake,
with 100 head. The hills OF Catahoula
parish are crowded with people and cattle,
and h people dwell in pine-poll huts. The
water continues rising at the rate Of three
and a-haf iIches per day, and in many
Rays has reached the caves of houses,
the Liudell place, on Back river,
Monday, the high wind partly unroofed
ginhouse in which there were twelve iami
lies, and nearly overturned the building
greatly alarming the occupants. A man
named McAdam, asked 20 be taken from his
house with his family and forty hogs the
wind threatening its destruction but refuss d
to leave without the stock. The waves raised
by the winds shook the houses to their foun-
dations.
The Tines Democrats steamer left Black
river and steamed down lanes, over fields,
and through the quarters OF several planta-
tions, exciting the wonderment of the peo-
pie, who crowded the lofts and ginhouses.
The boat ran two and half miles inland,
the waves of the boat splashipg through the
rooms of deserted houses. This is a rich.
cotton section. Numbers of stock were
on scaffolds in many places, waiting to
be taken away to high ground. The
rising waters demoralized the negroes at
Lindell, the place where a woman was
drowned Sunday. Ga the Mississippi a
house and family were washed away; a gin
house at Horseshoe, below Troy, containing
300 negroes, is threatened with destruction.
Steamers will be busy for days rescuing peo-
