A Small Tornado —The storm last Tuesday week blew things around rather promisciotisly. We have heard of several building, being unroofed, chimneys blown down, and quite a number of fruit and shade trees being torn up ty the roots, besides various minor freaks, such as blowing down fences, etc.

Patent Centrifugal’.—We understood there is considerable excitement in some parts of the conntv, in regard to “Harvey Hunt’s Patent Centr-.'ug-i." a machine to make sugar from sorghum eyrup. The June number of the Sorgo Journal ventilates these machines in f.n able manner, and cautions its readers no> to be swindled. The Sourrial says it is neither a patent or a new discovery, and if of any practical utility any person has a right to make and use them who sees proper. We would a;ain call the attention ol our renders to (his valuable Jour nal. Tho raising of Sorghum is an important braneh of fanning, and those who engage in the business should not fail to secure all the information on the subject possible. Subscription price $1 00 a year, six months 59 cents. Address. Sorgo Journal and Farm Machinist, 116 Main St, Cincinnati, Ohio.

Isdi-nap 'tia Herald. —The Herald com«» to us enlarged to a nine column paper. We are glad to note this evidence of prosperity. It has been constantly improving from the commencement, and that without the aid ol §60,000 gifts from the State Treasury, in the way ol public printing. Its exposure of the swindling and stealing of loyal pets of the loyal party, should recommend it to every honest man, no matter what his politics, and sbovs all, every Democratic voter in the state should be a subscriber. Its location at the capita! of the State affords superior advantages for showing up the dirtv tricks ol that loyal band ol stay-at-home patriots, whose swindling operations would be tolerated in no other country than ours. We are not much given to adulation and praise, bnt we cheerfully bear testimony to the independent spirit which the Htrald exhibits, and to the straight forward Democratic principles which it advocates: ever pointing to the cardinal truths which are the foundation upon which a government of the people must necessarily rest.

Another Bombardment —lt is rumored that the two powerful P eruvian i ron-clads Hoesca and Independencia, are on their way to Havana to retaliate for the bombardment by the Spanish fleet of Valpiraso and Callao. The Spaniards may find out to their cost that two can play at that game.

Wool Trice Cukkent —The follow ing is from King, Lloyd & McLain’s wool circular, an 1 will be of interest to the wool growers. Cincinnati. June 1,1 d 66 Indiana —Coarse, 4G to 45; Medium, 45 to 50; Fine. 50 to 55. R-ceipts are beginning to come forward Prices very firm. Slocks in the Eastern markets at the present time much reduced. Demand active. We would cution our friends making purcha-es in Wool in the country, not io to be over sanguine as to future prices, basing their views on the present aspect of the market; for notwithstanding Wool is said to b<- the lowest commodity on the market, other commodities are as likelv to come down to meet the price of Wool, as it is to lake an upward turn to meet the prices ol other articles. Woolen re very dull of sale, slocks of both imported and domestic are heavy and accumulating; and while in view of making eerly Sales, the recent temporary advance in Gold and light stocks of Woo! eastward, are pleasant to contemplate, they might prove unprofitable if taken as a basis tor purchasing with a view to se l ling d ning the summer and tall months after Wool has comm'nced going forward in quantity.

Mntder in Jasper County, Ind. Anothr Newland Evans Traoedt.— A gentleman who came from Jasper' county yesterday morning, says a Lavlaye.te Ind. paper, informs us of some of the particulars of an affair very much, like tho Newland Evans tragedy which occurred about six miles of Rensselaer on Wednesday evening. The par-1 lies to ihu affair are Addison Parkinson, 1 a well known wealthy and respected citixen of ihai county, and a young man named Owen Gur’.hrldge, who is also re, presented to he a young man who has hitherto b.rne an unblemished reputation. Mr Parkinson carries on a large farm, upon which the young man has been for some time employed, he having some interest in putting in a crop this season. On Wednesday Mr. Parkinson discovered that lits daughter, a very pretty and interesting girl ol some fourteen or fifteen years of ag., had been seduced, and that Gurthridge was her seducer. Taking his pistol, the old gentleman proceeded to the barn where the young man was putting a his horse, and deliberately shot him three times, killing him instantly. After cominitiing the deed, Mr. Parkinson made no eff.rt to escape but proposed to remain and answer to the law. When our informant left, a coroner’s jury had been empann> led, but he did n<-t have time to await the result of its action. Mr. Parkinson is said to be a man worth not less than fifty thousand dollars. The affair has created a sensation in the vicinity of where it occurred hardly equalled by that occasioned by the shooting ol E"sns by Dr. Newland. Further developem . Is of the case will be awaited with interest. —Polices Gazette.
