The Effects of a Cyclone.

PErERsBURG. Va, May l2.--The cyclone Of
the day before yesterday did immense damage
throughout the south side Of Virginia. Fam.
lis residences, barns and fences were demol-
ished. and large trees uprOoted. The resi-
dence Of a farmer In Brunswick county was
blown down, the family barely escaping alive.
All the outhouses on the farm Of John Chap
pelI. Dinwiddie county. were RACED to the
ground A large and valuable granary OF
John Grubs, Chesterfield county, was struck
by lightning and consumed, with its contents
The cyclone was accompanied by heavy fall
Of rain and hail, which did incalculabie dam
age to wheat, young corn, oats, vegetation and
fruit. In some instances the hallStOnes were
as large as hens eggs. All the streams are
greatly swollen many bridges washed away,
and several washouis reported. The Apo
mattox river at this point is very high, and IS
still rising.
SHREVEPORT, La, May IA cyclone
swept over this section of the country this
morning. Houses, forests and plantations in
its track were destroyed. Everything on the
plantation owned by Mrs. NJ. c. Leroy was
swept away. One old man and two children
were killed and many others dangerously
wounded. Near Acadia many houses were
destroyed. Many cattle were killed.

Censor of the Rural Press.


One Of the most remarkable things about
the rural press Of Maryland is that while II
RACES and foams at the mouth over national
politics, there are comparatively few Journals
that have the courage TO say anything about
the political ''goings-ou' in Maryland. With
the Democratic papers the trouble Is that
those who get the bill-printing pap are afraid
they will lose ii. and the others are hoping for
1t in aconciliatOry manner.-BdlfsmOre liner
lean.
All Of which Is nonsense. The rural press
comment upon such topics as call for criticism
in their estimation, just as the self-satisied
and pretantious city dailies do. They are not
continually magnifying mole-biIls into noun
tains, and specializing on mere theories, as
the Apsericda does. There IS more stability
about the rural press than the -imerieaa can
claim. It is stalwart or halfbreed, just as
the administration happens TO be, and per-
haps the government advertising has consid-
cradle bearing upon its course.
The rural press do not undertake 10 under
mine contemporaries, by cutting advertise
ments out of them and writing TO the adver-
tisers, offering to insert them for considerable
less sum.
They do not claim the largest eirculations,
and their publishers afterward have to admit
on the witness stand that their lists are scarce
" half that of a neighboring paper.
If a rural paper is obliged al any time to
issue supplement, another paper Of the same
county does not do likewise to make preten-
tons of prosperity.
The raral press deal with state or national
politics as occasion requires. There is moth
ing special in Maryland politics now calling
for comment, and there is much in national
politics. The american, no doubt, would be
glad if the rural press would not keep the peo-
pie so well informed about the extrayagauce
and rascality going en- at Washington.

The New Registration.

Bear in mind that the new registry law does
away with the old registration altogether, and
that every voter must be registered anew, this
year, when the registration begins, otherwise
he viii lose his vote. The new registration
begins on Tuesday, July II, in the counties,
and continues for FIVE days, until Saturday,
the 18th, inclusive; and again for five days in
August, from the 10Th to the 18th inclusive /;
then for ten days in September, viz: on the
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and
Saturday, for two successive weeks next after
the first Monday; and again on the 2d and Sd of
October, which closes the registration, and
makes twenty-three days in all to be devoted
to the work of registration. Bear these dates
in mind and fail not to attend to this duty.
Foreign born citizens, especially, should
bear this in mind, and begin in time to look
up their naturalization papers, 50 that they
may be enabled to show them to the officers
of registration. In case their papers have
been lost or mislaid they should make imme-
date application to the Court by which the
papers were issued for certificate that they
have been duly naturalized.

The Revolt at cameronism.

The recently nominated Republican ticket
not giving satisfaction to the entire party. 1t
was patched up to please all factions, and
pleases none. Mr.. Cameron would have
done better had he forced full Stalwart
ticket He then would have united all Stall
warts. As it is, the Independents are dis
pleased and the Stalwarts also.
Mr. William RawIc, who was nominated
for Judge of the supreme court, and who has
been identified with the anti Cameron wing of
the party, has since his nomination proclaimed
that he is not Stalwart, and says that Mr.
Cameron's power must come to an end, ad-
ding that he believes Cameron's politics to be
''damnable.n
Mr.. Wolfe, who led over $4,000 Indepen-
dent Republicans against the Cameron ticket
last fall, is still against Cameron; and Sena-
tor Mitchell is also hostile to him, the ticket
nominated last week and to Stalwarts in gen
eral On Saturday last he sent the following
despatch in reponse to a telegram from Major
George W. Merrick, Postmaster at Wellsboro,
Toga county, announcing the issuance of a
call for a mass convention, to be held at that
place May 20, to indorse the Senator's posi-.
ton in regard to the Harrisburg ticket, and
predicting an overwhelming support of that
position by the Republicans of Toga county

Ou-Wedncsday next the Independents will

It viii be seen whether the Independents are
really in earnest and whether their disgust at

there is earnest determination to overthrow
Cameronism. The $1,000 Independent votes

to the front once more the bosses who nearly
ruined the fortunes of the party in 1874 and
1876. Ifexperience teaches anything II teaches
that they are utterly unfit for leadership. and
that not even party discipline can compel the
voters to submit TO them any longer. The

The Governor Refuses to Sign the
Milk Bill.

Governor Hamilton remained in Baltimore
on Thursday and transacted considerable bu-
siness. Mr. Andrew Banks, author of the
milk inspection bill, waited upon him at Bar
NUNS Hotel, with delegations from the Mary
land Stock Breeders Association, the Balti-
more Dairymens Association and the Tenn
perance Alliance. The delegation argued the
case of pure milk, and dwelt on the evils OF
feeding swill to cows. Gov. Hamilton said
he had no objection to the inspection of milk,
but to regulate what people should feed to
their cows was not matter of legislation, and
he did not propose to interfere. II was a
question altogether between the chemists as
to the deleterious effects of milk from swill-
fed cows on infants The argument between
the Governor and Mr.. Banks was animated at
times. Mr. Banks said he could bring ten
thousand people who wanted the bill signed.
The Governor replied that if 10000 people
came it would make no difference, as the bill
must stand on its merits.
