be a bad place to be in in more than

A severe storm swept over Pitts-
burg on the night of the 27th. The
Uuion Depot was inundated, and
the water was four feet deep in the
Pan Handle tunnel. In Alleghany-
City the flood was terrible. A num-
ber of houses were demolished and
the water rushed down from the
hills until it rose to a height of ten
feet in the streets. There was great
loss of life in the city and vicinity.
Some forty bodies have already been
recovored, and it is estimated that
200 persons are missing. In one
locality a whole block of buildings
was carried away. It is the general
opinion a water spout burst near

disaster is greater than supposed.
Fully two hundred lives are lost.

miles in extent.

(opposite Eagle Pass on the Rio

B. PERSON,
Owing to the sickness of the edit-
or and the devil, coupled with the
stringency of the money market, the
Gainesville Gazette has been reduced
to a seven column paper. The pro-
prietors hope to resume their former
dimensions after cold weather sets in.
Boston is agitating the question of
introducing the “Gouge system” of
ventilation in the City Hall. In
most other cities the gouge system
has long prevailed in all the muni-
cipal offices, and the chief purpose
of ventilation is to get rid of it. If
Boston has had no experience of the
gouge system, we would not advise
her to Attempt it.—St. Louis Globe,
