James river, one and half miles north of
Lynchburg, Va, and the corner Of the

ally sunk. Conductor William King who
was on the platform Of ono Of the cars,
was thrown into the river, and, although
he had one Of his ribs broken, he swan to
the cars aud helped tho passengers through
the windows. Most of the passengers
were taken cut through holes cut in the

LOC CALITY.

The specimens were broken into small
Jumps and these were carefully cloansed by
washing with clean water of PARTICLES Of
saw dust and other adhoring matter, and
melted into chemically clean vessels. The
Conestoga specimen consisted Of both the
solid and porous kind.
As water TO DO considered good should
not yield more than .Ol part of albuminoid
ammonia in 100 0O0 it will be- seen that
while the water produced from those SAM
Piles of ice are of high degree of purity,
they arc by no means the best waters, la
regard to purity they are inferior to sew
eTal of the Lancaster waters examined,
including the hydrant water. II this by.
dranJ water is as pure as il was a few
weeks ago, it is contaminated considerably
by mixing it with Lancaster ice.
Ia conclusion Prof. Baker says:
"The porous ice was found TO contain a
somewhat smaller amount of free ammo
MIA, but considerable larger amount of
albuminoid ammonia, than tho solid, aud
TO hold large amount Of sediment. A
| lIrge amount sediment was also found in the
pond ice. The conclusion based upon this
examination is that the Lancaster ice il
organcally considered OF good quality,
aud is doubtless much better than that
furnished in many of the larger cities. 1t
would be much better, however, ia using
ice, not to put it into the water, etc,
which we desire to cool az is 30 commonly
done, but put it around vessel contain
ing tho liquid to be cooled. BY SO doing
any danger from the use OF impure ice,
and also the disagreesble suspended mat
ter would DO avoided. Convenient yes.
sells could easily DO made for the use of
ice in this way"

Blaine's Irish Policy.

Mr.. Blaine's campaign started of
with boast that lie was somehow or
other going TO capture large Irish
vote from the Democrats. There has
not been so much heard Of it lately,
The reason is obvious. Mr.. Blaine's
so-called Irish policy" like every other
policy he has had. is "a transparent
humbug. Mr.. Blaine is a specious sort
Of statesman who swaggers and busters
great deal when he thinks there is u
chance TO make any capital out Of it,.
But he is shallow and insincere, asd
soon gets into deep water. This was
very clearly revealed in the avdity with
which he embraced and the readiness
with which he dropped the scheme to
raise surplus fund for the purposes Of
dividing 1t among the states. He dis
counted popular intelligence 80 far as
to believe this would commend itself to
the confidence OF the people. He found
out the contrary and-without any con.
viction on the subject-he drops it as
summarily as the original patentee,
Wharton Barker, has disappeared from
public notice.
An investigation Of Mr.. Blaine's sup
port OF those intelligent and we'll direct
ed efforts for Ireland and Irishmen
which appeal to their sympathizers in this
country, shows his nakedness again.
He was not secretary Of state when he
was invited to be present at the great
meeting held In Baltimore, April lS
1882, under the auspices of the Irish
National Land League, of Mary,
land. He neither went or sent excuse
he made no sign. That meeting was
held TO and did demand the effectual In
terp0sition Of the United States in be
half OF those American citizens arbitra
rily seized and held without trial for the
offense OF sympathy with the cause of
the land league. As secretary of state,
Mr.. Blaine had failed TO make such in
terpositiOn, and he knew there would be,
man at that meeting, TO speak before
its audience, who might arraign hit
official policy, and whom he dared moi
hear nor answer.
The next morning after that meeting
the eloquent plea which Judge Blacl
made was borne on the wings Of steam
and lightning to every corner of IN,
country. IL was the argument o
a lawyer, statesman and patriot
and his conduct and speech wer,
In such marked contrast will

AFTER ThE BIu STORM.

incidents Of It's Hsvagss Ia the Lower End
Figuring Up tho Luss"r
Down the country they are still talking
about the heavy rains and bis Hoods OF
last Wednesday night, and tho oldest
citizens declare that they were unpreco :
dented. Cellars which were never before
flooded had several feet Of water in them,
aud many famiie, were kopt awake all
night bailiug water out of their bed
rooms. The wind, thunder aud lightning
were terrifying and added to tho horror Of
the situation in many places.
An incident of striking maternal care is
related Of cat belonging To resident Of
Quarryville. She was in tho cellar with
SIX young kittens. AS the water rose, she
sought the highest elevation with her
family and when it crowded around
them she carried them one by orc up the
stairs, but failed to get moro than four TO
this place Of safety two wero drowned,
but the mother and the survivors were
found high and dry at tho hoad of tho
steps, whittier her material sOlictude had
conveyed the helpless offspring.
All along the branch of the Little Beaver,
which runs from Quarryville to Now
Providence, is strewn with the debris of
the fiOod-tmbers, panels OF fence, gates,
bridge lumber, trees, parts of Outhouscs
anu ObuOI VI tho 'hh'''is no
township bridge between Quarryvillo and
Hauksyille is utterly destroyed, and many
gardens in the vicinity arc washed out so
that they look like the road.bed of q freshly
macadamized turnpike,
Just below Hess station, where tho
creek cmerges from the gap into Goo.
Winners meadow, tho fierco torrent Of
pent up waters, gorging in the narrow
vale, ploughed out huge stones and scat,
tered them over moro than q half acre of
ground, which presents n very curious
appearance, 0estrewn with the bouders of
all sizes.
The Cabeen branch of the Quarryville
railroad "Y" is torn entirely out railroad
track was broken like dry sticks, huge
timbers lifted from their fastenings, aud
| ties, track and all moved from their bed.
But tho most serious losses are those
suffered by the narrow gauge railroad from
oxford TO Peach Bottom. Not only its
bridge across tho Octoraro, but miles and
miles of it's road bed are almost entirely
washed away. Its operations arc impeded,
and the loss il 30 severe that it is doubt.
ful If the crippled corporation can recover
aud il the grading and track will be rs.
stored. The road has suffered frequently
from storm and recovered with difficulty
but this present blow far exceeds any
previous experience, and 1t Is TO be feared
that it will bo fatal to the long struggling
enterprise.
