A STRANGE-LooKINo STORM CLOUD
Further reports of the disastrous cy-
clone of Tuesday Of last week in South
Carolina show that the storm travelled in
northeasterly course to Paris Mountain,
in Greenfield Co. Its path covered belt
Of country about one-fourth of mile in
width, In which almost everything had
been completely leveled. Giant oaks and
great forest pines wee swept into piles,
and the whole forest in the path of the
tornado was an almost impenetrable
mass. By dwellers on the mountain side
the storm was seen as it crossed the sum
NIT of the mountain between z and
o'clock. A dense round cloud, perfectly
red and ablaze with electricity descended
the mountain. 1t sped with fearful We
locity, spreading destruction alike on the
hills and in the raviues of the slope.
Scores of dwellings were unroofed or de-
molished, and some of the wrecks were
burned by overturned stoves. Dozens OF
people were more or less injured, three or
four fatally.

REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.

The Republican electors Of New Jersey, and al
other voters without regard past political differ
ences who are in favor OF eleyating and Identifying
American labor, protecting and extending home
industries giving free popular education to the
masses Of the people, securing free suffrage and an
honest counting Of ballots, effeciualiy protecting
all human rights in every section Of our common
country, and who desire to promote friendly feels
ing and permanent harmony throughout the land
by maintaining National government pledged to
these objects and principles, are requested to send
delegates TO a State Convention, to be held at
TAYLOR HALL, in the city Of Trenton; on
THURSDAY, THE l7TH of APRIL, at II O'Clock
noon, for the purpose of electing four delegates at
large TO the Republican National Convention
which viii assemble at Chicago, on June Sd next,
70 the nomination of candidates for President and
Vice President, to be supported at the next general
election. The basis of representation under this
CALL will be delegate for each two hundred Re-
publican votes cast at the last Presidential cleo
tion, and one delegate for each fraction thereof
exceeding one hundred votes; provided that every
township, ward and precinct, legally defined as
such las in Jersey City, shall be represented by at
least one delegate.
Under the rules prescribed by the National Re-
publican Committee, the Republicans of each Con-
gressonal district have the option of electing their
delegates 10 the National Convention either in
conventions held in the respective districts within
fifteen days next prior to the meeting Of the State
Convention, as subdivisions OF such State Con-
yention but the practice in this State having uni
formy been 10 select the district delegates at the
same time as the delegates at large, il Is recon.
mended that this usage be adhered to, and that the
delegates to the State Convention from the several
Congressional districts, meeting distinctive
Congressional Conventions in Trenton the day
ofthe State Convention, elect two delegates each
TO the National Convention.

GREAT SALT LAKE.

A gentleman who has been Lately sailing
on the g Dead Sea of America thus de.
scribcs it Soon we were on our way to-
ward the hazy western shore. As we pass
ed along the sea-gulls circled around us or
hoated on the water, their white plumage
shining in the sunlight. Every now and
then hawk-moth would fit by or alight ON
the boat dragon flies would stop long
enough to gaze at us curiously and then
spin Of toward the distant islands. Occa-
sionally seventeen year-old locust would
hum past as IL to mock at us for ever daring
to believe that this is the Dead Sea of
America As the bow plowed through the
water millions of small diptera (Hies) would
rise from the water, where they were resting,
and cover the bow Of the boat till quarts of
them could be collected. Wherever we went
we observed the same thing. The water Of
the lake is their home, and they are as much
at home sitting ON the water as skipper is
on an Eastern pond. In some places where
it Is calm these flies darhen the water for
miles. Here mot ON the beach, they Law
their eggs; here they hatch, and here the
Larvae live by millions till ready for the pupa
state, when they attach themselves to the
seaweed (hoating everywhere in the water
and remain till they emerge as perfect flies
The hrv@ doubtless prey upon the strange
little shrimps TINT live in the water. There
are infinite numbers of these, M there is
scarcely place in the lake where bucket
of water can be dipped without taking up
from 20 to 500 OF them. II is strange that
people should call this dead sea- for
though the number of species does not ex,
coed ten or fifteen, there is no lake, fresh OF
salt, in the world that contains half as many
living things rs Great Salt Lake"

HOUSE DRAINAGE.

Custom, luxury, and fashion, as affecting
the interior arrangements of dwellings,
have gradually converted house drainage
into q source Of danger which does not
properly belong to it as hygienic element
in sanitary system. Before the art of
construction Of the purely mechanical ar
rangements which belong to house drainage
was brought to its present state of excel
lence, and, indeed, before the insidious
dangers connected with it were discovered
or understood, the fashion of placing the
openings through which house refuse is dis
charged into the sewers within The very
innermost recesses aud most imperfectly
ventilated parts Of dwellings was intro.
duced as a matter of convenience or so.
called luxury. When the evil consequences
of this began to be felt, remedies in the
form of traps and plumbing devices were
multiplied, until finally, after the inventions
of more than a quarter of a century have
been brought to bear on the subject, we are
obliged to confess that the problem is not
yet satisfactorily solved. While it is true
that, through the progress of the mechanic
arts and constant study, stimulated by sad
experiences, there has been during the last
few years a decided amehoration of evilf
which for long time numbered victims by
thousands, yet no system of construction or
patent devices which has been, or probably
will be- introduced can be pronounced per-
fectly and permanently safe, SO long as the
present custom continues OF placing plumb
ing conveniences within the walls Of living,
and, above all. Of sleeping, rooms. Pipes
will decay, traps will become unsealed, the
water supply will occasionally be inter.
mitted Or suspended, drains will become
foul or leak. And when we consider the
impracticability of constant supervision,
especially in rented or tenement houses, by
competent persons, and the cost Of such
supervision, SO reluctantly borne even in
sase of the most fragrant defects-defscts
which usually announce themselves by the
outbreak of disease, and perhaps by deaths
1t is impossible not to feel that the sys-
tenn. as it is now generally practiced, should
be abandoned. -HarpegS Magazine.
