AFTER THE STORM.
Indescribable Wreck Visible on Every
Hand---The storm Losses.

Indescribable Wreck Visible ON. Every
Hand---The storm Losses.
MT. VERNON, Ill, Feb. 20.-The sun
rose this morning on an appalling scene
of dcsolation. To the southwest of the
courthouse where the cloud flrst dropped
down, immense oaks are twisted sff0m
the ground aud houses crushed By
the flying debris. Scarcely can
the direction of the streets be traced.
How many houses were here can
only to be guessed at, for nothing is
left in places to mark the spot. Looking
northeast across the railroad thesde8e
appears more terrible because the BhfId-
ings were larger and heavier. Thestorni
swept clear path 800 yards wide. On
each side of the wrecked portion disman-
tied houses half buried under debris still
stand. Along the business streets, where
the solid brick buildings were, not one
remains standing or even partially pre-
served. What was left by the fury of
the storm was soon devoured by the
fierce flames. ~
