From the fifth biennial report of The
Southern Illinois insane asylum, received
yesterday from DR.. H. Wardner, it appears,
among many other interesting facts, that
the death rate for the last year has been
900 per cent. of the total number Of pa
tients in the institution during the year
or much less than during any previous year
since the establishment of the asylum.
Yesterday afternoon Sergeant Ray
detected what he believed to be signs Of q
gathering wind storm in the extreme
northwest. If he guessed rightly, the
storm ought to reach here tonight or to-
morrow. The velocity of the wind, he
thinks, will be about forty miles per hour.
The prediction is based upon the sudden
fall OF the barometer at Bismarck from
80 10 to 1854 But the velocity of the wind
there was only eight miles per bour at
o'clock yesterday afternoon

during the late food the water stood
two feet deep over the new road IN process
of construction by the government between
Mound City and the cemetery. The road
is now within nine inches OF its contem.
plated height, so that, when completed, il
would, in case of food equal to that OF
this year, be under water to the depth of
about fifteen inches. These facts were
communicated to the authorities at Wash
lngton, and it is probable that the road
will be raised three or four feet higher
than at first intended, and that necessary
culverts will be constructed to prevent
damage when the water seeks its level.
Mr.. julius sarbisn will probably have the
contract for this additional work. lie was
