Division of the same road is open. however,
and fair time being made. The st. Louis
and San Francisco is not interrupted at all,
and traffic on the Missouri Pacific west has
besn delayed but little. The Cairo Short
Line has also suffered but slightly, bat all
other roads have had more or less trouble.
Matters are getting well in hand, however,
and they expect all breaks will be repaired
in a day or two and schedule time resumed.

The losses by the great food must b.
enormous. The Times-Star saws:

enormous. The Tmes-Star says:
The loss bv the great overflow is Unreasonable.
The destruction OF property has been enormous,
and this is onIy one feature of the dire disaster
The injury to buildings and merchandise in the
submerged districts can not be estimated, but
will no doubt aggregate very large amount.
The practical suspension of business throughout
q large portion OF the city, and in surrounding
cities involves an incaculable loss. Ii is doubt
full IL the recent flood in Germany approached the
great Ohio Talley inundation in importance as a
calamity to property and mercantile interests.

The Losses at Toledo.

TOLEDO, o., Feb. 19.-The Blade this
afternoon publishes a summary of the dam
ages inflicted by the food, showing the
aggregate to be much less than was believed
TO be the case yesterday.
The largest portion Of the loss is on the
railroad bridges and docks. IL will cost
$4,000 to repair the bridges; $4,000 to put
the Middle ground in as good shape as be-
fore the food. and about $4,000 to repair
the docks The losses of merchandise, in
Guiding logs and lumber, are relatively
small, and will not exceed, it is thought,
$15, 600 The expense of moving goods TO
places of safety is the next most serious
item, and will aggregate $4,000 or 5000.

Special to the Sentinel:

MONTErUMA, Ind, Feb. 19.-The Wabash
reached the highest point ever known atthis
place yesterday afternoon at o'clock
when it stood six inches higher than the
great floed of 1875. A large force of men
were at work during the entire day strength
ening tie heavy grade which connects the
approaches TO the l., ID. and w. Depot; but,
Notwithstanding their almost superhuman
efforts to save it the water overcame them
on the lower end of the grade, sweeping a
great portion of it away, and completely
severing for q time all connection with the
lower part of the town. The banks of the
river were lined all day with a fascinated
crowd of spectators, great many of which
were from distance. drawn thither by the
high waters 1t is impossible to estimate
the damage done until the water subsidies.
The river is slowly falling to-day and no
more danger is apprehended

IngersoIrs Reflections ON Death

The following lines are an extract taken
from letter recently written by Colonel
Ingersoll from Long Beach to personal
friend WHO had suffered . bereavement in
the death of his mother:
safer all, there Is something tenderly ap.
propriate in the serene death Of the old.
Nothing Is more touching than the death Of
the young, The strong. Bnt when the duties
OF life have all been nobly done--when the
sun touches The horizon, when the purple
twilight falls upon the present, past, and flu
ture-Nhen memory with dim eyes can
scarcely spell the records Of the vanished
da5s--lhen, surrounded by kindred and By
friends, death comes like strain Of music.
The day has been long, the way weary, and
we gladly step at the Inn.
Life Is shadowy, strange, and winding
7oad, on which we travel for little way-s

definition, that reason Is not and cannot be
the only light or guide Of the soul. But
even II you had not contradicted yourself
egregiously, your assertion that reason Is
the only light, etc, cannot be accepted, for
IL Is pitiable begging Of the whole question
at issue-a denial of revelation as guide tn
reason, and this you will see IL the point be-
tween you and the Christian. Your state
men. thus cnnningly assumes as proved that
which you set out TO prove. This is one Of
the peculiarities Of your method in debate.
1t is on this account that am under the ne
cessity of Analysing almost every assertion
you make.
lNoEEsoLL at (polygamy) makes man a
beast and woman slave"
CoMMENT-Here again you appeal to a
sentiment or public opinion which Is pro-
duced by and founded on Christian principles
which you reject. This is illogical. Your
infidel position requires you in opposing pc.
lygamy 10 use arguments that would con-
vince Turk or Hindoo. But Polygamy
makes a man a beast, yon say. Then 1t Is
as bad but no worse than your modern inf
del philosophy. This philosophy makes man
a beast by denying the immortality Of his
soul and asserting that he Is evolved from
the monkey or protoplasm. If he Is de-
scendant of the monkey or the goat where
Is the improperly Of his initiating the pro-
pensities of his ancestors? You tell him
there ia nothing above or beyond him,
neither a God nor a future. Why then
should he aspire when there is no object
worthy Of bis aspirations? You point 10 the
oyster or to the libidinous orang oulang, as
his origin, and tell him his future Ia blank.
Why then should he curb bis passions or Inn
IL bis impulses? Is 1t worth the effort
You make man beast when you make bis
origin and destiny the same as that Of the
beast. Polygamy can do no more than this
Aud If man is beast, aud there Is no future
what is 10 prevent him from following the
instincts of his animal nature? Reason
Reason would forbid polygamy If 1t can be
shown to reason that there Is anything in il
contrary 20 the first principles of nature. BY
first principles Of nature mean the object
end and purpose Of marriage, the continu
ance of human life on earth, etc. Does pc.
lygamy antagonize any Of these objects II
you prove 1t does you will have proved tba,
| it is contrary to reason-not till then.
