A cyclone passed through the upper
part OF Coffee county, Ga, last week,
which was most terrific in It's results,
The trees were piled in heaps and houses
unroofed and blown away For half
mile wide almost everything was torn
up and destroyed. Every house on
Tom Smiths place was unroofed but
one. In many places the fencing is
gone, and the fields are all covered with
logs. In one instance two women had
just left their bed, when immediately
the roof was taken of, two rafters pene.
trating the bed endways.

linear Bona the Jebel Naiba, an isolated
mountain about $500 feet high, is evidently
sinking, and as it sinks considerable
cavity is being formed round its base.
Other land in the vicinity has undergone a
considerable change in height within few
centuries. In Lake Fezzara, which now
covers about &C, coo acres, the remains of a
Roman town have been found, showing
that the lake did not exist at the time of
the Roman occupation, and that the town
has probably sunk in the same manner as
the mountain is new sinking.

OUR LETTER FROM BROADBRiM.
Municipal Rottenness-Bold Robbery-So-
cial and Political Devils-Temperance
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and Female Brokers
Contrasted, Etc.
NEW YORK. April 19, 1884.
EDITOR LHiEF:
The aspect of affairs in the city is not
pleasant. The Mayor is accused of bad
conduct by one of the Commissioners of
Accounts. Every department of the city
government develops degree of rotten
ness which is perfectly appalling. The po-
lice, from the commissioners down to pa
trolmen, are under suspicion, and robberies
OF the most fragrant character are CON-
mitted in open day. The police superin-
tendent assures us that there is no protec-
ton against the bunco swindler, for when
ever he arrests him a convenient magis-
trate discharges him if he can only exhibit
a So bill, which, perhaps, he may have
feeced from some unhappy victim only five
minutes before. In the meantime, por-
tentous rumble comes up from the slums,
where dwell the unkempt and the unwashed
$40 of them, crowded into two wards.
The morning papers give a circumstan-
tial account of a wealthy gentleman robbed
at his own door-lucky man that he was
not murdered. He is attached to the Turk
ish embassy. Suppose General Wallace
had been attacked ON the steps of the Amer
ican Legation by Turkish robbers. What
a howl would have gone up from the Amer
ican press about the sayagery of the Turks!
Here the papers, one and all, mention it IS
an article of current news, but it seems to
awaken neither horror nor astonishment.
Let stage be robbed in Montana, or a
gambler be shot at Leadville, and we get
the news with loaded head lines, but an as
sassination OR robbery in New Yofk, is
looked upon as & matter of course, and ex-
cites no special remark.
Mr.. P. J. Mcguire, at the labor demon

Schwab cries, SO mote it be-" and in the
background is adiscontented army ready to
seize the first opportuny to murder and to
rob.
Then the political devil has entered into
us, more terrible that those that were
cast into the swine that ran down into
the sea. Strange things have happened
here. Only few years ago, he who sits in
the presidential chair was an all potent
factor in New York politics. In a city
overwhelmingly Democratic, he handled
his " Republican Forlorn Hope" with a
skill that time and again wrung victory
from the jaws of defeat and secured share
of the public plunder for his henchmen,
which made his name rallying CRY for his
friends and Wholesome terror to his foes.
Up to the point of his accession to the presi-
dency, he religiously stuck to the motto,
"Stick to the friends who stick to you,"
but unfortunately for himself, since he
came into power he has wasted his strength
in trying to eonciliate enemies wha refuse

According to Archibald Geikie, F. r. s.,

a strip of land more than mile broad has
been carried away in eight centuries, and
in some places as much as five yards is
yearly given up to the sea.

Mons. Pasteur has been continuing his
researches on rabies, or hydrophobia, and
believes that he has now succeeded in rem
dering number of dogs secure from fu-
ture liability to the disease by the plan of
inoculating them with modified virus. If
immunity from rabies were in this way se-
cured in the whole species, the human race
would have nothing further to fear from
the disorder, since mankind is never af-
fected except from virus proceeding di-
rectly or indirectly from mad dogs.

Animal life is very abundant in some
parts of the world at great depths in the
sea. This is illustrated by the fact that
during last summers explorations by the
French steamer Talisman one haul of its
net brought up, from q depth of 800
fathoms, 1000 fishes and nearly 1000 crus-
taceans of different kinds. This capture
was made in the Atlantic, near the Cape
Verd Islands.

GRANDNIA'S ANGEL.


BY SYDNEY DARE.
I" Mamma said: Little one. go and see.
If Grandmothers ready to come to tea
l knew mustn't disturb her. so
I stepped as gently along. tiptoe,
And stood n moment to take peep
And there Eas Grandmother fast asleep.
II knew it was time for her to wake;
/ thought I'd give her a little shake.
Or tap at her door OF softly call;
But hadn't the heart for that at all
She looked 80 sweet and so quiet there,
Lying back in her high armchair,
With her dear white hair and little smile.
That means she's loving you all the while.
/" didn't make speck of noise;
knew she was dreaming of little boys
And girls who lived with her long ago,
And then went to Heaven-she told me so.
~ went up close, and didn't speak
One word, but gave her on her cheek
The softest bit of o little kiss,
just In whisper, and then said this:
'GrandmDther, dear, It's time for tea
"She opened her eyes and looked at mo,
And said: Why, Pet, / have just now dreamed
OF little angel who came and seemed
To kiss me lovingly on my face
She pointed right at the very place!
II neser told her twas only me;
i took her hand. and we went to tea"
