Seven or eight persons were instantly killed, including the tank man, his wile and two children. Eighteen persons were more or less in jured, a number of buildings blown down, and timber scattered in all directions. It is not ascertained how far the hurricane extended. The storm passed over a portion of this city, accompanied by hail tho size of walnuts, stripping the trees entirely of their small limbs. The river continues rising at the rate of six inches per hour, which is faster than has been known for years. If the flood continues great destruction of property will ensue. Later reports of the tornado, which visited Cat a City station, say that it is entirely demolished. Nine persons were killed, ten mortally injured and a large number of others more or less hurt. About sixty families were rendered homeless. Tho storm came from the southwest and passed on to the northeast. Ogden Post Office: FOKEIGX.

WABRKN Mi a catalogue "rare," "scarce," or "very scarce," several times after the titles of books. If a book can become scarce in these days of cheap printing, how great must have been the difficulty of keeping alive the works of early writers! It can never be known what proportion of books written before the invention of printing has been lost, but that wo have much the smaller part left there can be no doubt. We have not space here even to indicate the various ways in which tho writings of ancient authors have disappeared. The Chinese Emperor in whose reign tho Great Wall was built, was so ambitious to have his name handed down to his posterity, as the founder of the Chinese monarchy, that he issued a peremptory order to have all books and there was a vast number of them and all writings of every description, collected and burned by the magistrates of each district throughout the whole empire. So well was the order carried out that only the works of Confucius and a lew other authors were saved by being hidden behind the wall and under the floors of different houses. Nothing like this is to be feared in our day, we may suppose, though a motion was made in tlie English Purlin-- , ment, about two centuries ago, to destroy the records in the Tower, and to settle the nation on a ew foundation. In Franco, too, in the time of the great revolution, (1689,) there were men who attempted to carry out the same principle. But tho great destruction of books has been caused by wars, national or religious, or by the two combined. The Persians, from hatred of the religion of Phoenecians and the Egyptians, destroyed their books. The Jews burned the books of the Christians and the Pagans. Tho Christians burned the books of the Pagans and the Jews. The most ancient memorials of the Irish peoplo were completely destroyed by their In Mexico the picture-writing- s, conquerors. containing tho early records of that country, shared the same fate. The first missionaries collected great numbers of thes'j paintings, and committed them all to the flames. Near the middle of the seventh ccn-turwhen Alexandria was taken by the Arabs, tho books of the famous li brary of that city were distributed to four thousand baths; and such was tho incredible number of volumes, that six months were barely sufficient for the consumption of the precious fuel. Two centuries and a half earlier, another famous library was destroyed, with the temple of Serapis, in that same city of Alexandria. The loss of many a library is due to the Arabs and the Turks. But tho Christians too often followed their example. The library of Tripoli, which is said to have contained the iucrcdible number of 3,000,000 of volumes, was destroyed by the crusaders. At the capture of Granada, too, in the year 1492, Cardinal Ximenes condemned to the flames 5,000 Koruns. After the Reformation, both Catholics and Protestants burned the books of their adversaries. In England there was a great destruction of libraries at the dissolution of the monasteries, in the reign of Henry VIII; and later the Puritans burned everything they could find that bore any trace of Popish origin. Then, again, from the seventh to the fourteenth century, the monks were accustomed to transcribe their feeble lives of the saints, or other writings often quite as worthless, on parchment, from which. they had erased some ancient classic. In view of all these facts, the wonder is that we still have even fragments of Oliver Optic's so many ancient writings. v, Magazine. A woman living in Newport having suddenly disappeared, the spiritual mediums of the place were oonsulted as to her whereabouts, and "located" her body in a pond in the neighborhood. Tlie pond was dragged, but no corpse was found, and the next day tho woman came home. She had simply been visiting some friends in a neighboring village. C. L. DA0LF.R, Helena, MoiiUuia.
