A Wild Storm.

A terrific storm swept over this place at about II o'clock last Monday night, which for time appalled, the stoutest heart. Wind, rain and lightning held full sway. Shade trees were greatly damaged, many of them being uproot- ed. Signs and windows were wrench ed from their fastenings, and chimneys and fiues demolished.
 In the country the corn crops espec- ially sustained much damage. In the bottoms where corn was over waist high much of it was broken of and ru- ined. One planter says that fully one- third of his crop is broken off. The damage to fruit trees is not so great as expected. yet many fine trees are re- ported injured.
 The storm was more disastrous west of us. At Clarksville, Cabin Creek, and Knoxville several houses were blown down. At the latter place sev- eral business houses were destroyed and the Methodist church torn to atoms, also one man was seriously hurt. At London one house was blown down. In the plnerles west of here we learn several men were injured but cannot get the particulars. In Gumlog valley the gale was very heavy and damaged corn and fruit trees.
 Further reports from the country as to the destruction of fencing, trees, stables and cribs continue to come in It will be several days before an ssti- mate of the damage in this county can be formed.

In RussellviIle, Friday, June 12th, 1885, of consumption, Miss Ida Bayliss, daughter of Mir. and Mrs. B. F. Bay liss.
 The hand of death, though guided by aI all-wise Providence has been placed heavily upon a worthy household, and bore away daughter lovely and well beloved. Having about arrived at the estate of womanhood, she was the pride alike of parents and friends. We know full well we cannot fitly touch subject so tender and so full of sorrow sacred at home, yet we sympathize with the stricken family and friends and re- mind them that her pure lite and tri- umphant death will ever be comfort to them until the time when they will be permitted to rejoin her in the courts above.
