Ttaut. mascEUu&NEOtis. The river at Cincinnati had reached within a few Inches at seventy foot above low-watermark on the morning of Feb. 13, and was still rising slowly. Joseph Prung and George Wlrttz were drowned in Mill Creek by falling from a boat. Three men were drowned at E vansville by the oapsizin

of a boat. At Louisville the water continued

to exeep up, and all previous records had been piiseed. There was little suffering there, but considerable at Jefferson ville and Sew Albany, across the river. TbeBeoretary ot War ordered Gen. Amos Beokwieh to prooeed to Ctndnnati and take general charge of the distribution of supplies under the $300,000 appropriation by Congress. The Philadelphia Society of Organized Charity voted 84,000 for relief work. The. citizens of Cleveland organized a committee to forward food and money to Pomeroy and Wheeling. About 3,500 persons were supplied with provisions at Pittsburgh. The Jewelers of Chicago telegraphed $800 to John C.

Seventy-one feet above low-water mark was the extraordinary height to which the raging waters of the Ohio had attained at Cincinnati, on the morning of Feb. 14, being four and a half feet higher than hut year. The rivtr was still rising slowly, but the weather had grown colder, which, while It would add to the suffering of the homeless, gave hops of an early cessation of the flood. From above that point the reports were distressing, conveying tidings of wrecked homes and hungry people. The devastation In the Kanawha Valley Is oomploto. At Harm an, Portsmouth, and Bellalre, Ohio; Wellsburg, W. Vs., and Catlettsburg, Ky., great distress prevailed, and relief was being sent forward. The Hood was rapidly Increasing at Louisville; and at Cairo, Memphis, and Little Rock the waters were hourly swelling. The citizens of Shawneetown, HI., after battling for days with the encroaching waters, succumbed to the pluvial enemy, and the streets wore flooded from ten to fifteen feet deep. The situation at Lawrenoeburg, Ind., was deplorable. Two hundred bouses bad been destroyed, and the people were deserting from their homes. At New Martinsville, W. Va., the opposition to the steamers was so great that the people mounted a cannon and II red into every passing boat.

Terrible Aooounts of the Destrnotion of Property and the Distress of the People. Special Telegraphic Correspondence of Chicago Timee.1 CINCINNATI AND TfFPER OHIO IUVER TOWNS. The situation in Cincinnati and her submbs is one that calls for commiseration. A year ago this week the whole country was aroused by scenes of destruction and distress, and tonight tho damage exceeds the wildest estimates of last year. The storiet,of tho floods In Hungary and Austria are dwarfed by the Bie of the mighty flood that at this moment is rowing in resistless volume down the Ohio. Within cannon shotof thecentorof population of tho United States is a community of 300,000 souls, rich aHd prosperous beyond most cities of tho country, nt-arly one-fourth of which will be, before this flood roaches its utmost height, driven from or imprisoned in their homes, and dependent on others for food and shelter. Not a gas jet ia lit in all tho three cities. The fare of the sun has not been seen for days. Tho full moon's gentle rays, thinly filtered through the clouds, Is tho only source of light at night. Away from the struggling beams of coal-oil lamps and scattering electric lights, the gloom that has settled as a pall over tho people is in full keeping with the sadness of nature's self. A prominent business man said a fow minutes since that novcr In all bis life had he felt as gloomy and disheartened at the prospects of the future outlook aa to-night. The direct loss in Cincinnati alone of over 1 1,000,000 last year will be multiplied several fold before Saturday night next. Again the tributaries are rising, and where K will end is a matter of the wildest conjecture. Conservative people gave sevonty feet as the least figure at which tho river would stop. Many believed that it would go still higher, but it is all a matter of guesswork. The rooms of the relief committee is piled to the ceiling with provisions and clothing, and a couple of policemen stand at tho door to keep back tho crowd. A special from Maysvlllo, Ky., sixty-live miles up tho river, says it has rained steadily all day and the river is rising one inch an hour. All business is shut down and citizens are assisting the needy. The greatest suffering is in the suburban town ot Chester, where thousands of people are quartered in halls and school bouses. Relief committees are distributing provisions in skiffs. In Maysvlllo tho water is up to the center of the town. Never has there been such suffering. The Emmet Rifles were ordered out by the Council to patrol the streets, but nearly all of them got drunk, took possession of the skiffs, and did more harm than good. The Manson Company has given the city of Maysville $3,5000 for aid. Many bosses pass down the river. At Aberdeen, Ohio, nearly opposite, the suffering Is intense. Loud cries are heard from there as houses tumble down and are carried away. Above tho city, in the upper suburbs, the situation la worse than ever. At California it Is terrible beyond description. The entire town is completely submerged, and many of the houses along Front street are almost out ot sight. Many are on the verge of complete destruction. Not a solitary light is to bo seen and not a voice to be heard. Tuseulumisat present under water. Columbia is very badly submerged, both abovo and below. One-third of the town is under the flood. Thore was no gas lit last night. Much suffering prevails. Delta, Tusculum, Columbia, and East Columbia are deserted and tcnantloss. Pendleton is ia the same condition as Fulton and Columbia. A local relief committee baa been busy for the past five days ameliorating the condition of the sufferers. The public buildings are all turned into marine hospitals. The people of Austlnburg and Sandfordtown are in a deplorable condition. Covington stands apparently high and dry, but gas has been shut off, and the citizens may look for a cut-off in the water supply. At Newport the situation is proving worse hourly. Many families in the extreme lower portion of the flooded district were forced out of the second stories to-day. The situation in East Newport is terrible. Tho houses in that locality are ail threatened with destruction. Four thousand people were fed ly the committee at noon, and as many more were turned away dlnnerless in the rain because ali supplies bad given out. There was nothing for supper. Advices from Pomeroy, 246 miles up the river, say the town and its surroundings are almost entirely submerged, and the destruction has been terrible. The water was eight feet higher than ever before. The town has bad no telegraph or railroad communication for four days. Provisions am almost exhausted, and appeals vere made to the country at large for aid. The special was sent to Athens, thirty miles, by messenger. Point Pleasant, W. Va., four miles above, telegraphs for speedy aid. A Parkcrsburg dispatch says that the crisis has passed there. Tho river reached fifty four tcct. The town suffered severely, the estimated losses being about $1,000,000. At Gallipolis, Ohio, 5.0JO people are camped on the hills in terrible want for food and shelter. One hundred and fifty houses have floated away. Nearly every business man Is bankrupt. A house went by Middleport this morning with a woman sitting on the gable end. Mon rowed out and appealed to her to get off, but she refused. Baying she bad four babies below. The glass was broken, and the children were seen floating dead. New Richmond, Ohio, has been out off for six days from tho outside work) except by skiff. There is water in every building, and hundreds of bouses are submerged. The water is twenty-six Inohes higher than a year ago. The village of Rural, Ky., Is entirely swept away, only two of thirty-six houses being loft. WHEELING, w. Va. The city of Wheeling suffered greater loss last week than It has in all its hundred years of existence. Nothing like it has ever visited the city before. To-day was really the first day of relief since last Wednesday, and as soon as the light broke thousands left their homes to view the ruin the waters had wrought. The Island was the principal place of resort, for there the destruction was the greatest. No accurate estimate can be made for many days yet. but it is certain that the loss in the city of Wheeling alone will not fall short of 84,000,000. As an idea of the general destruction wrought, the loss in pianos alone will reach 00,000. The relief work goes bravely on, and what can bo is being done. Food Is now plenty, and no one suffers for something to eat. The city authorities are cleaning the streets of drift, and people are mailing some effort to restore their homes. SEW ALBANY, JND. The river Is rising one and a half inches an hour, and Is now sixty-eight feet eight inches In the channel, against sixty-nine feet in 1838, and seventy-two feet in 1868. Six hundred residences are flooded here, and the number Is being addod to steadily. But Ave of tho many factories in the city are running. Thousands of working people are idle. Families are huddled together by the dozens In small, unwholesome, damp houses, and sickness la increasing as a result There is a great deal of real suffering, and scenes like this are frequently met that touch the hardest heart. The situation in this city Is grave, and the suffering is great. The city authorities and citizens are doing all in their power to relieve it. There will certainly be three feet more of a rise, and this will involve a heavy loss here. It cannot now be estimated with any accuracy. At Jefferson ville tho situation Is perilous. Nearly the whole town Is flooded, and people have moved Into the second stories of their houses. AUBOIU, 1KB. The dismal predictions msde yesterday in regard to affairs at Lawrr nceburg have been verified. Th water has been rising rapidly and with it oomes destruction. Upward ot forty residences now are mora or lees wrecked or moved from their foundations, some of them several squares. People all over the town are leavlnz their honses, but they are compolled to leave their goods, as there is no place to take them, and even if there were a place to put them, they could not bo moved, so strong is the current throush the town. Provisions are scarce, and there is much puflerinir in prospect. XOUIBVIU.E AMD LOWBK BIVER POINTS. This citv Is tilled with alarm at the encroachments of tho flood. The river has been rising a half-Inch an hour for eighteen hours, and the signal service dep rtmont predict that the flood will exceed the mark of 1883 all along the Ohio, At this point that height lias almost been reached, and a great deal ot water 1b reported coming. So fsr as Louisville is concerned, there is a need for immediate subscriptions to tho flood relief fund, but no outside aid Is necessary yet. The steamer Rainbow has arrived frt m Evansvilla Her officers report Nowburg, Tn y. Tell Citv, Derby, Leavenworth, New Amsterdam, and Hauckport, Ind., almost entirely overflowed ; Rookport, Ind., at the east flooded, and Canncltown, Ind., flooded three streets back from tbo river, with thewatwnp to tho large cotton mill. It probably had to suspend to-dy. Lewisport, O'overport, HamcsviUe, and Brandenburg. Ky., are also under water. In all the towns namvd there is already ranch suffering and will be heavy losses. The farmers all along tho lower Ohio are Heavy sufferers trom the destruction of crops, drowning of stock, and floating off of outbuildings aud fences. Many have had their household goods swept away. Somas Mbnteb, the celebrated pianist, has been elected honorary member of the Fhilharmonlo Society of London In place of Wag. ner. This is the first time the honor has been accorded to a woman.

Pubs -rlptlons to the rolief funds have fceeo liberal In all the cities, and hundreds of thousands have already gone forward for the rolief of tho sufferers. The chief officer of the Catholio Knights of America has Issued a special appeal, and tho Press Club of Pittsburgh has organized a relief expedition on its own account.

Senator Morrill offered a substitute providing for the issuance of notes up to 110 per cent of the par value of 4 par cent bonds deposited previous to 1890, the amount in circulation to decrease 1 per cent each year subsequently until par is reached. On all other securities the circulation may equal the par value of the bonds. No action was taken.

KNOW THTSKLF. Tur nvcrajo number of teeth is thir-,'T-two. Tuk average weight of an adult is 140 lbs. 6 a.. Ths brain of a man exceeds twice that of any other animal. A man annually contributes to vegetation 124 pounds of carbon. The weight of tho circulating blood is about twenty-eight pounds. One thousand onnctw of Mood pas-i through the kidneys in ono hour. The aUoleton measures ono inoli laa than tho height of tho living man. A mas breathes about twouty limes in a niinuto, or 1,200 times in an hour. The average weight of n skeleton is about fourteen pound. Number of bones, 240. A max breathes about eighteen pints of air in a minute, or upward of seven hogsheads a day. Twelve iiioossu i-ouxds, or 21 hogsheads 4- gallons, or 10,782 J pints, pass through the heart in two hours. Five ri'xphed and kciity porxDs, or ono hogshead and ono-quarter pints, ot blood pass through the heart in ono hour. The average weight of the brain of a, man is tluee and one-half pounds; of a woman, two pounds and eleven ounces.

There are 175,000,000 holes or colls in tho lungs, which would cover a surface thirty limes greater than the human body. The average height of an Englishman is 5 f ee t 9 inches; of a Frenchman, 5 feet 4 inches; of a Belgian, 5 feet Ci inches. The average of the pulse in infancy is 120 per minute; in manhood, 80; at S0 years, CO. Tho pulse of females is moro frequent than of males. The heart beats seventy-five times a minute; sends nearly ten pound) of blood through the veins and arteries each beat; making four beats wh:le wo breathe ouco. The human pulse has rather a wide range, but the general average may be put about as follows : At birth, 140; at 2 years, 100; at from 16 to 19 years, 30; at manhood, 75; old age, 00. Thore are, however, great variations consistent with health. Napoleon's pulse is laid to have been only 44 in a minute. A case is also related of a healthy man ot 87 whose pulse was seldom over 'M during the last two years of his life, and sometimes not over 20. Another man of 87 vears of age enjoyed good health and spirits with a pulse of '20, and there is also on record the curious instance of a man whose pulse in health was never more than 45, and, to be consistent in his inconsistency, when he had fever his pulse fell to 40, instead :if rising, as is usual. Tl:e Dominion of t'aiiitda. Tho Dominion is tho largest in territory of all the colonial possessions of Great Britain, and, except India, the largest in population. Tho Governor lieueral is the nominal head of the Government of about four and a half million people. He is chosen, how? Sot in any sense by tho jwople who are to be governed, but by the Primo Minister of tho British Government. And in making his choice the Prime Min ib tor need neither consult anybody, nor submit his action for the approval of auy one. In fact, tho system of government iu Canada is wholly unliko om-s. Tt is basod upon tho system of lCiiglmd, but with some modifications. The differences between the Government of the United States aud that of Canada arc, however, the matters on which wo now propose to speak. The first duTeronce is that just spoken of, that while we choose otur Chief Executive by a popular vote, that of Canada is appointed without asking its consent. And, whereas, our President must be a native-born citizen, the Governor General of Canada is never a native. Canada hai a Senate, and so have we. But wliilo our Senators are elected for a flxod term by tho Legislatures of the several States, tho Cunadian Senators aro appointed by the Government of the country, for life. The Canadian House of Commons corresponds to our House of Hopresontatives. But our members are chosen from districts of equal, or nearly equal, size, while in Canada the districts vary greatly not so much, however, as they do in England. Our Representatives are chosen for two years, whereas in Canada members aro chosen for five years; but a Parliament maybe, and always is, dissolved before the five years are expired. In Canada, as iu this country, the actual business of government is for the most part transacted in departments presided over by cabinet ministers. Iu the United States these ministers are selected by the President, aud, having been confirmed by the Senate, hold office during his pleasure. In Canada the ministers are nominally appointed by the Governor General. In reality one man is designated by the Hou6e of Commons as Prime Minister and head of the Government, and he selects nil his colleagues. The Governor merely conforms to the will of the Commons and of the Premier. He might refuse to appoint a minister, or he might dismiss one, but in either case he would be regarded as having acted unconstitutionally. These are some of the marked differences between the two systems of government. Kightly considered, they are only different in form. In essence the same principle underlies each. Each country ia governed under laws which and by officers who represent the popular will. Canada no less than the United States is a free, self-governing country. We are a republic; Canada is not We are wholly independent; Canada is nominally a dependency of Great Britain. But the spirit of Canada is free, and the government of the Dominion is, except with regard to foreign relations, as unhampered in its fiction as is ours. Canada cannot go to war. She cannot make treaties. She cannot send ministers and consuls abroad. But in all domestic concerns she is as free to act os we are. If she wished for more freedom; she could have it. But the people of Canada are proud of fhfir connection with Great Britain, aud they willingly accept the small measure of restraint which is made necessary by that connection. ro(7t' Compantott.

But we arc brought up on English books, and our delusions nf this sort are, after nil, rare disadvantages, that never can counterbalance tho greater mercies and delights of our inherited litri-sture. - A tlantif. llow the Governor's Leg Grew On. An old fellow from Bear Wallow visited the executive office to talk with the Governor and secure something to "blow" about his neighborhood. "Come iu," said a pleasant-looking gentleman. "Aro you the Governor?" "Ye3, sir." "Wall, then, I've alius been mistaken about you. I had heard that you left one of your legs on a battle-field, but I see you've got two legs. How do you account for that?" "Easy enough. When I took my seat as Governor I had only one leg with me, having, as you say, lost the other one in battle. A short time after I took my seat I noticed that auother leg had begun to grow out. At first I was alarmed, having novcr heard of such a performance, but after awhile I decided to await developments. The leg kept on growing until the ankle was reached. It stopped then for a few days, and I thought that the resurrection business was entirely suspended, but I was wrong. Tho leg was only gathering material with which ' to build a foot. After awhilo the foot began to make its appearance. It reminded me of an old woman knittiug a sock. It would have tickled you to death to see how skillfully and human-like the work of rounding off the heel went on. Occasionally it would drop a stitch, but, sir, it would hop back and pick it up. I was very anxious about the instep, put my fears were soon allayed, for it was shaped off as perfect as anything you ever saw. At last, when the performance reached the toes, hanged if I didn't think that I would itch to death, but I couldn't scratch, for that would have spoiled tho work. When the job was completed I could walk as well as any mau in town, and I even ran a race with an old negro down on the river bank." '"Did you walk around while tho growin' was goin on V" asked the man from Bear Wallow, regarding the Governor with curious gaze. "Oh, no. I had to remain perfectly quiet and lie on a kind of cot which I had prepared for the occasion." "Did vou talk to any -of the doctors about it ?" "Yes, but they did not regard it as remarkable. One of onr leading physicians said that election to office was very frequently tho cause of arms and legs growing out, and gave it as his opinion that this was tho reason crippled men were always after offices." "It may not have seemed strange to the doctor, but dinged if it don't seoni mighty strange to me." "It did to mo at first, but I soon got used to it; and let me hre remark that when a man is footed Governor of Arksnsaw he will soon got used to a number of things he never heard of before." "Now, when I go homo an tell the folks that the Governor's leg has growed out, they'll beliove it, for they don't think anythin' impossible with him, but when I tell 'em that I've seed the Govcynor, au' sot down an' talked to him familiar-like, they won't believe it. Can't you give me some sort of receipt showin' that I have seed you? Jest say : 'This is to certify that John Eillprune, of Bar Waller, has this day had a conversation with me. I axed John to set down an' make himself at home, which he done, an' I found him mighty entertainin', an' wush he'd come agin an' fetch his folks.' Jes draw up them words exackly, an' sign 'em, please." "I'll do it, sir," and tha receipt was drawn up and signed. Greatly elated, the man from Bear Wallow went down. At- the State house gate he met tho watchman, who asked: "That feller gone down from up yonder yet?" "What feller ?- "That feller in the Governor's room ? "Ain't he the Governor?" "Governor, the deuce I He's a jackleg lawyer from up in the country, and is here tryin to get a pardon for a hogthief. The Governor's been dodgin' him all day." -irfcaftsaro Traveler.

Anglicisms in American Literature. I believe it was Mr. Higginsou who said that it has taken a hundred yean to eliminate the lark from American literature; but there aro several other lingering delusions which wo have unlawfully inherited from our English ancestry, I have lately fouud myself much dissatisfied with Italy and the Mediterranean sea, because the xkies of ono and the water of the other failed to keep up their time-honored reputation for utioqualcd bluesees. I do not need to explain that English writers have commented from contury lo ceutury upon the contrast between the Italian atmosphere and their own, and have celebrated the glories of tho former. The color of the waves that beat against the shores of Groat Britain are apt to bo a dull brown; in many places it seems as if tho London fogs were the fountains from which the sea is replenished. But we Americans go on placidly making onr copy-books say over and over again that the sky is blue in Italy, aa if there went not a

The (iraves-Cilrey Dnch Among other evidences of the bitter and ferocious spirit which characterized political contests in those days was the duel between Mr. Cilley, of Maine, and Mr. Graves, of Kentucky, in which the former fell. Mr. Cilley, in a speech delivered in the House of Representatives, criticised a ohargo of corruption brought against some unmarried Congressmen in a letter published in the New York Courier and Enquirer, over the signature of "A Spy in Washington," and indorsed in the editorial columns of that paper. Mr. James Watson Webb, the editor of the Cottrier and Enquirer, immediately visited Washington, and sent a challenge to Mr. Cilley by Mr. Graves, with whom he had but a slight acquaintance. Mr. Cilley declined to received the hostile communication -from Mr. Graves, without making any reflections on the personal character of Mr. Webb. Mr. Gravt s then felt himself bound, by the unwritten code of honor, to espouse the cause of Mr. Webb, and challenged Mr. Cilley himsolf. The challenge was accepted, and the preliminaries were arranged between Mr. Henry A. Wise, as the second of Mr. Graves, and Mr. George W. Jones, as the second of Mr. Cilley. Itilles were selected as the weapons, and Mr. Graves found difficulty in obtaining one, but was finally supplied by his friend Mr. Bives, of the Globe. Tho parties met. the ground was measured and tho combatants were placed; on tho fourth fire Mr. Cilley fell, shot through the body, nnd died almost instantly. Mr. Graves, on eceing his antagonist fall, os pressed a desire to render him some assistant e, but was told by Mr. Jones, "My friend is dead, sir!" Mr. Cilloy, who loft a wife and thi'oa young children, was a popular favorite, and his tragic end caused a great esuiteaient all over the country. Mr. Webb was generally blamed for having instigated the fatai encounter; certainly, he did not ondeavor to prevent it. Mr. Graves w-as nover afterward re-elected indeed, no man who has killed auother iu a duel has ever boon elected to office in Kentucky. Ben: Perleij Poore's Reminiscences.
