EGYPT.

A terrific storm swept YER this part
of the county last Saturday night, &C
companied by terrific thunder and
lightning. No lives lost so far as heard
from in this immediate neighborhood.
Great damage was done to all growing
crops, fences were blown in every di-
rection, timbers uprooted and twisted
off and piled in all directions. Two
clouds seemed to meet, one coming
from the northwest and one from the
southwest. The damage to buildings
was not very great. Prince W.
Thompson's smoke house and hen
house were leveled to the ground: Jos
eph Wernix' smoke house was blown
down, and he had a very valuable
mich COW killed by a tree falling
ACROSS her. The dwelling house Of
David Dees was unroofed, and his
barn RACED to the ground, smashing
up a self binder belonging to Messrs.
Stultz and LAUGH. The flue was blown
from w. f. Blair's house, and a falling
limb or piece of timber broke a hole
through the roof. The roof of Col.
Gates barn or the shed adjoining the
barn was lifted off and laid on the main
building. A large green tree which
was lying on one side of the road be-
fore the storm, we are informed, was
picked up bodily and laid down on the
opposite side of the road. The damage
done to crops is principally by falling
timber in the fields on the new land.
About $50 trees are down IN the field of
Benz. Nave, others are damaged per-
haps more. Messrs. a. j. LAUGH,
Lana LAUGH, John Johnson, p. w.
Thompson and many others. have more
timber down Oh their corn ground
than they can clear up in ten days.
VIM. Johnson's corn is so badly dam
aged by falling timber That he has Civ
ell it up, thinking that it would cost
more to clean up the trees than the
corn is worth. We understand that
the storm did great damage in the
bottom opposite Napoleon. All who
have not got cellars or caves have
stopped all other work and gon. to
digging.
Harvest will begin next Monday.
T. B. Hall paid Egypt a flying visit
this week.
VIM. Lineback and wife was visit

Rev. Geo. L. Leyburn, of your city,
in the presence Of a large congregation,
dedicated the Presbyterian church on
Sunday last, the scripture from which
he spoke was Psalm 4S, II, ID, from
which he spoke in a very eloquent man.
ner of the doctrines of that church.
While the brother confined himself to
that line OF discourse, he was yet very
liberal. The scripture being the rule
of action, the strict observance of the
Sabbath. and recognizing Christians in
other denominations are doctrines
which are peculiar to no denomination.
But when any denomination can invite
all people to partake of the Lords sup
per simply because it is His, and not
theirs, this may be a peculiar doctrine.
The sermon was well delivered and had
a good influence. No doubt all would
be pleased to hear him often. w.

caused the fall. Mr. Simmons says
that the tower vas exactly plumb when
he examined the altitude of the water,
as mentioned above, because he OBJ
served that it was just at the bottom
of a sheet, and touched it alike all
round.
Messrs. Abendroth & Root, % Cliff
street, New York, the proprietors OF
the waterworks, have t~elegraphed Mr..
Simmons to keep up the supply of
water, from the pumps, and that they
will both be here next week.
The pressure from the pumps was test
ed by a number of hose pipes, in both
ends of town at the same time, last
Wednesday afternoon, and water was
thrown over the highest buildings, and
about as high as the Presbyterian and
Baptist church steeples, so that ade-
quate protection still exists against
fire.
The loss falls entirely on the water
company, as the city does not W any
of the stock, its contract being merely
to pay a water rental after the works
shall have been completed according to
a certain contract. This has not yet
been done, and no cost whatever has
vet accrued to the city. The cost of
the water tower was $4,000. What
ever may be said of its structural inef-
f%iciency because of deficiency in the
design, it is universally attested that
the work was we'll executed. The
company has the sympathy of every
