LARGTRY'S FAREWELL.

Mrs. Langtry is playing two
weeks farewell" engagement to
good houses at the Globe Theatre
in New York. She will open the
next season at Montreal on the 29th
of October. From there she will go
again to New York and afterwards
probably make three months tour
over Europe. She SAID to a reporter
recently: 81 am eight and twenty
years of age. Eight of those years
| spent in London, where there are
more temptations, hundred fold,
than there are here. Do you sup
pose that after passing through the
temptations of London life | would
come to America and abandon my
self to the wickedness charged
against me"' Mrs. I4angtry has
herself to blame for this unpleasant
talk about her. She should not have
permitted the attentions of Geb-
hardt. The Americans are disposed
to make much of distinguished Wis
itors from abroad and Mrs. Lang
try would have proved no exception
if she had dismissed Freddie"
We are not accustomed in this
country to married women receiv-
ing the devoted attention of young
men, and while in America, Mrs.
Langtry should have cOnformed her
actions to our customs.

a Terrible TOrn1dO,

One of the greatest cyclones on
record passed over Mississippi Sun
day afternoon from the Northwest
ern to the Southeastern boundary of
the State. It's first appearance was
at Chattanooga IN this state and it
seems to have spent its force at a
point about thirty miles east of
NatcheZ. The greatest destruction
was done at the towns of Wesson
and Beauregard. The last men,
toned place, a town of about 800
inhabitants on the Illinois Central
railroad, was completely destroyed,
and the inhabitants were killed and
wounded. Scarcely a person in the
place escaped unhurt. A box car,
in which several negroes were play
ing cards, standing in cut as deep
as the car, was carried over a two
story house 200 yards in the woods.
Wess0n, a larger town, suffered less
severely, only portion of the town
being in the track of the cyclone,
but the work of death and destruc-
ton there was terrible. The houses
occupied by the operatives in the
Mississippi Cotton and Wooden
Mills at Wessen were destroyed,
but the mills were fortunately out
side of the dreadful swath of the
hurricane. Starkville, Aberdeen,
Lawrence, Columbus and other
towns in the state suffered greatly,
and the entire track of the tornado
through Mississippi is scene of
desolatiOn, suffering and death.
Sunday night a storm passed over
Georgia, not so severe as that in
Mississippi, but very destructive to
life and property. a number OF
houses are reported blown down
and some lives lost in various towns
in that State. On the same date
the dispatches told of a severe
storm in Iowa. and snow storms in
New York and Colorado.
The latest reports indicate that at
least two hundred and fifty persons
were killed in Mississippi and four
wounded. There was
general slaughter of people and live
stock in Georgia. The cyclone
struck Barnwell county, S. c., and
moved a road through the woods
of a mile wide.

and Conkling may be considered as
suffering like punishment. Conk-
ling, no donbt, thinks the half
breeds who forced him out of his
place in the Senate as infamous as
Clodius and the gang of demagogues
that made Cicero fly from Rome.
But here the likeness ceases and the
ousted American shows up in a
better light than the expatriated
Roman. Cicero spent the days of
his Punishment in pitiful repinings
and longings to return, but Conk-
ling has gracefully retired to the
practice of his profession and is
accommodating a handsome fortune
in the pursuit of his lucrative bust
ness,

ROSCOE AND CICERO

In some particulars Conkling
strikes us as being the Cicero of
American politics. We don't mean
that the LOrdly Roscoe is possessed
OF the fervid eloquence which usu-
ally characterizes man the Cicero
OF his day; the ex-senator from
New York is no mean orator, but
the print in which he chiefly resem-
ble5 the ancient Roman is ms over
weaving vanity. Cicero was able,
beyond dispute, and so is COnkling,
but the former detracted from his
worth by conscious egOism and
an exaggerated idea of his self impOr-
lance, while the latter has spOilt a
splendid reputation by the same con-
ceited trait of character. OF course
COnkling will hold no such place in
general history as Cicero fills, it Is
only in the contemporary politics of
this country that we have denOmi-
mated him the counterpart of the
great Roman. If there was a Pa
trician class in America, COnkling
would be its advocate and ally, and
if some one would speak of him in
the United States Senate as the
savior of his country, as Pompey |
spoke of Cicero in the Roman Sen |
ate, he would swell with vanity |
and spread his feathers just as his /
ancient prototype of Rome did.
Cicero wrote to friend of the con- /
ditiOn of Rome: ave have not /
statesman or the shadow Of one. |
My friend POmpey, who might /
have done something sits silent adj
miring his fine clothes. Crassus
will say nothing to make himself
unpOpuIar and the rest are such
idiots as to hope that though the
constitution fall they will save their
own fish ponds" This was in the
days of Cato and Julius Caesar, yet
Cicero thought them all idiots
except his illustrious self. Ii ConK-
ling were to express his views thus
freely, his opinion of American
statesmen would be just about as
fiattering as that which Cicero en-
tertained of his Roman contempt
raries.
There is a point in the history of
each of these men that will admit
of comparison as well as their
Cicero was banished

Some little corn has been planted
but farmers are very backward with
their crops, owing to heavy rains
and high water. There is general
complaint about the bugs destroy
ing tobacco plants, and some farm
ers are talking of planting their to-
baccO land in late potatoes. Oats
and wheat are looking better.
There was a sharp frost last night
but so far, the prospects for fruit is
good.
Yellow Creek is said to have been
two feet higher, from last Sundays
