Another Instance of what the Small boy can do.

One of the closest calls and at the same time almost miraculously escapes from death that has ever been chronicled in this paper, occured in this city yesterday afternoon Just after the heavy rain had ceased fallin^and the gutters along the streets were overflowing, a boy by the name of Wm. Huff, about twelve years of age, was wading in the water on west Chestnut street. Walking down the gutter, the current became so swift that he was carried down the stream through the catch basin at the corner of Second and Chestnnt and into the sewer beneath. Two or three persons saw him go down, and of course no one expected that the would ever be seen alive again. Hardin' Huff, the father of the boy,, is a cooper and was at work in the shop of Jesse H. Clutter when the sudden disappearance took place. Not knowiag what else to do, took a bee line for the river, which as is well known, is a quarter of a mile distant. Although he made rapid time, he says that upon arriving there he found his boy walking up the bank. The youth says that when he'fell into the sewer he did not lose his presence of mind, and asserts that he was not even frightened. He tried to stand still until help could arrivo, bui the current was too powerful, and he was swept swiftly down the long, narrow and dark cavern, sometimes with his head above and sometimes beneath the water. The. inky darkness was now and then relieved by a sudden ray of light coming dowH through "catch-basins, but lie shot past them like the winds into utter darkness and the incessant roar of the con-stantly-increasing volume of water. He says he knew the lay of the-ground very well, and was positive that if he could keep his head above the water long enough he would finally strike the Wabash, and further, if lucky he could run his chances of getting to shore. In all of these sup* positions he was correct, for although lie received some ugly bruises during his trip down the rapids, he will be all right and ready for hia daily watermelon to-day.— Emphtntjr

Metiretary Shcrmnn's ttpeecti. Washington, August 19,—The Republicans of tlie District of Columbia held a grand Garfield and Arthur* ratification meeting to-night. A large number of Republican organizacionfe turned out in force, and marched in a torchlight possession through the principal streets to City Hall, where a large, platform brilliantly lighted and decorated had been erected. An immense crowd collected here, and two overflow meetings had to to be organized, as a large proportion of the people could not get near enough the principal stand to hear the speakers, A.

Clajp'p, editor of the National Republican, presided and made the opening ad drew. The great speech of the evening was delivered by Secretary Sherman, who made this evening his first appearance on the Republican stump since the Chicago Convention. The burden of hiS remarks was the cardinal difference between tho two parties, in that the Repub lican is the National party and has built up the whole country, while the DCTUOcratic degrades the'Nation and elevates, the State. In closing he contrasted the two candidates, and eulogized Garfield in the most hearty terms,

Wade-Hampton Perplexed. Washington, August 19.—Senator Hampton's speech at Staunton is giving him no end of trouble. The editor of the Staunton Virginian, in whose patcr in was published, and who heard it, maintains that it was printed just as delivered, and that Hampton said precisely what he was reported as having said. In a priyate letter to ii gentleman in this city Senator* Hampton says: "What good is it to deny this story to instantly be confronted with a more desperate fabrication? Is my whole record since the close of the war, and are all my efforts for a better understanding between the sections, broad and down reaching for the Union, to be frittered away by the forgeries of an obscure newspaper writer! 1 neither used the words attributed to me nor anything approaching them in meaning. I am perplexed and almost discouraged."'

|Four Tramp* Shot.

The tramps, nine in number, were lying in afield belonging to Mr. Wade, and on being discovered by him were i-ordercd to leave. They refused and assaulted him in a body with a razor and clubs.

One struck him with a heavy piece of timber, when he fired two more shots, shooting one man in the leg and another in the hand. The whole gang were arrested and now lie jafl. All were under the influence of whisky.

DE*

NARROW BSCArE OF WORKMEN IN A MOLISHED BUILDING^ URBANA, O., August 19.—What might have been an appalling catastrophe, hap

at 5 o'clock this evening at the dited States Rolling Stock Company's shops. A tornado came up, shaking their immense buildings from top to bottofu. The blacksmith shop, a detached frame building, 40 by 60 feet, with 22 forges, working SOmen, had its frame end blown in. The hands attempted to get out, when the.entire building blew down with a crash before they got away. One end falling en some coal bins, left loopholes through which the men barely escaped like rats with their lives. The building then caught tire from the forges, bjut was soon extinguished by employes from another shop. The hands fied into tho fields.

Wm. Gibson,»blacksmith, was caught between heavy timbers, from which he had to be pried out, somewhat injured.

The general forfeman, B. F. Leonardo Dave Shyrigh, John Ferrin and several others were badly bruised. One man was blown thirty feet through the air. The doors were blown off their hinges.

A train of freight cars was blown a quarter of a mile. It is considered miraculous that uo one was killed. Loss $1,500. From thirty to forty meu are thrown .out of employment.

West of town the wind struck a largo barn belonging to Allen Loudenbach, and catching the corner of the tin roof, rolled it up like a wafer. The track of the storm is marked by demolished straw stacks, razed fonces, and ruined fruit and shade trees, causing a heavy loss to farmers throughout the country.

Programme lor tlie ijUirrlxoidMcptlnii The Committee of Arrangements of the Gen. Ben. Harrison meeting have ar ranged the following programme ..

Gen. Harrison and party will arrive, over the Vaudalia, at 2:35, where he will be met by the following committee of reception:
