Fattening Stock !n Autumn.

Sheep or cattle that arc intended for the butcher, either late in the fall or du

ring the winter, should be pushed with

grain while they are eating grass in-the

months of October and November. It is economy to do this. And more flesh and

fat can be laid 011 with one bushel of corn during these mouths than in cold winter

weather with dry hay, instead of grass,

for the balance of the food. What is

gained at this time of year can be cheaply

kept until the period of marketing arrives.

declines in weight and condition for lack of sufficient food during the seven or eight

laimed the approach of the tornado. This column rose to the height of two hundred feet or more, and as the flying debris marked the spiral currents, and the whole moved on with frightful speed, bearing every obstacle down With irresistable force, the view was awful, yet grand.

After the storm was over, which was in far less time than it has taken to write the above, we paid the "track of desolation" a visit, and the following is a brief synopsis of what we saw:

The column entered the city at its west boundary, at a point adjoining and immediately north of the entrance of the Bluff road into (lie town. Here a strip of scattered woodland had been crossed and the track of the current was marked by the fallen timber. At the entrance of the town the current was about fifty yards in width, and right here it struck a small frame barn owned bv D. ('. Vawtcr. which it completely wrecked and carried

away. The sills were found seventy-five yards distant. In the immediate vteinity it swept away two other stables, and Mr. Voting's wood house. The current was moving at this time about fifteen degrees north of east, and its center was on the alley, whiJli occasioned the demolition of the stables, while the dwelling houses on either side escaped. At the next, tier of lots greater damage was done. A small hewed-log bouse was unroofed, 6wncd by Mr. Corby, and immediately cast, John Webb's house was laid jn ruins. This was a small frame structure., the south end of which, being more immediately in the line of the current, was completely torn out. The inmates were in the north side, and though none were hurt, yet one eau but wonder at the miraculous cscnpo they made.

At this point the current seems to have swooped to the north sflmc forty feet or more, where it raised the roof off a small brigkjiouse owned by Henry GoodmanKrom^thence there was an open space oi one hundred yards more,^ through which coursed a small run. On the eastern bank stood a brick house, the residence of John High. This was a onestory building, containing four main rooms, besides kitehen and out-house. In the duelling was Mrs. High, an old lady lying oua sick bed, aud Mrs. Gibson, her sister. The storm here seemed to rage in its greatest fury. Urieks aud mortar crumbled like dust before it. The roof was carried away the walls fell inward the ceiling and all came tumbling down. Mro. High was covered with bricks, while a portion of the joists rested upon lior bed. Mrs. Gibson, who was ou the Uoor, was found iu a sitting posture, buried

debris to her shoulders. Both were se-

verely, and, as was supposed, fatally 111-

east and across Railroad street, was the Jefferson villo depot, which, receiving the full force of the storm, lies a heap of

bricks

and mortar.

'('he current kept on to the east from here, but as it was growing late when we arrived thus far in our course, wc did not follow its line any further. We learn that, some three or four houses were injured, more or less, ere it left the town, and that Mr. John Bowie's residence, half' a mile east, was visited and badly damaged. Where it came from, ami where it is gone, we have not, asyet ascertained. Perhaps in this instance we may realize the force of the proposition, "The wind bloweth where it listeth. but thou canst not tell whence it cometh nor whither it gocth."

One thing we know, however, and that is it came, and by the trail of desolation it has marked through our town, we will not soon forget its visitation.

I a a a a

the damage will not bo so great as

have been expected. Had the storm plowed through the business portion of our city, the damage might have been almost incalculable to its prosperity.

As we before said, the course pursued by the tornado, when it entered town, was a little to the north of east,. This general course it kept up for half a mile or so. when it, veered east for a square: then it veered still further around, perhaps as much as ten degrees south of east, until it struck the depot, when it veered backanil kept a due east course.

The casualities were remarkably few. Tn addition to those mentioned above, Mrs. Carmine had an arm brokeu, and Mr. Joseph Covert, who found a safe retreat by lying flat on the earth, had his face cut by a flying missle. We saw a little boy, nnmc unknown, led from a heap of rubbish, but was evidently more scared
