PROBABLE SUICIDE.-Some time ago a
boat was found on the Fauquler side of the
Rsppahannock river, containing mower
which Mr. Davis Downey, OF Culpeper ooun
ty, had borrowed. 1t was supposed that
Mr.. Downey had carried the boat to the
landing of the owner from whence it had
been washed by the high waters. The
strange part of the matter Ia that Mr..
powney has never since been seen. His
neighbors fearing he had destroyed himsef
dragged the river with hooks for days. but
did not find his body. His family,
consisting of his wife and two email
children, was away from home at the
time 1t is said that when he told them
good by he was seen to weep. The same
day he loaned neighbor horse and told
him to put 1t in the pasture when he return
ed as be might be away and the horse
would get nothing to eat. Mr. Downey's
farm lies on the Rappabanock river and he
has had his corn crop almost completely
destroyed by the freshets, which. with loss
to his fencing Sc, has 30 depressed him
that his neighbors fear he has put an end to
his life. Nearly two weeks have passed since
he was last seen.- Warreaton Virginian.

Heavy Rain and Wind Storms.

DEADwooD, OAK, July 26.-The heaviest
rain that has visited this locality for years
fell Wednesday night. It was accompanied
with heavy thunder and lightning White
wood Greek was swollen and did much
damage to the bridges on the Deadwood
Central Railway. Trains did not run at all
yesterday. Hail fell in come parts doing
damage to the crops but not extending over
much territory. Crops otherwise are in
splendid condition.
A Pioneer Press special from Morristown,
Mimi, says: One Of the worst storms ever
experienced here came up about O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. The clouds moved in
every direction, resembling csclonic clouds
Hail-stones as large as eggs fell, acoompan-
led by heavy wind and rain storm. Two
large baros were demolished, and other
buildings were unroofed.
At Anoka the most terrific thunder and
rain storm for years passed over the city
Three wooden buildings were washed into
the river. Much damage is reported by the
wind which appeared to be in the form of a
cyclone.
MINNEAPOLIS, MiDn., July GA special
from New Prague, Mimi, says A tornado
200 feet wide passed half mile west of here
at $50 Yesterday afternoon. One house was
dashed to pieces, five railroad cars, wheat
laden, were thrown twenty feet from the
track, and crops in the path Of the storm ut

Mr.. BELLAMY says

Eventually, and at no very remote pc,
ROD, society in this country must be DIVIDED
into few hundred families of prodigious
wealth. professional class dependent upon
their favor but excluded from equality with
them, and underneath vast population OF
workinemen and women absolutely without
hope of lettering their condition. and who
would year by year sink more hopeleasly
into serfdom."
The signs of the times evidently indicate
the approach of the condition foretold oy
MIR. Bellamy. And the chief cause OF that
appalling condition Is the high protective
tariff, which, by specially favoring the rich
and large manufacturers, has thrown all the
manufacturing industries into their hands,
and broken up the small and poor once, who
formerly had their little factories In every
city and town in the land, thereby dlssem-
mating the profits among all the people,
and preventing their concentration and &c
cumulation 10 the pockets ofa few.
