The miseries of the flood sufferers along the Ohio Valley were augmented by a wind-storm of unusual violence, accom-, pan led by a sudden . fall of temperature.

Kellef boats have been busy all along the lower Ohio, rescuing imperiled lives from the inundated districts, and distributing provisions and clothing to the hungry and destitute. The Sepretary of War wants suffering people to remember that he cannot use, the relief, appropriation to repair dwellings destroj'ed by the flood. Oir the 10th day of last Jiinuary the Houso of. Hepreseatatives ' at Washington unanimously adopted the following: resolution, which was introduced by Mr. Ochiltree, of Texas: Be8olredt That this House has heard with deep regret of the death of the eminent German statesman, Eduavd Lasker. X That his los is not alone to be mourned bv the people of his native, land, where his firm and constant e:posltion of and devotion to :free and liberal ideas have materially advanced the social, political, and economic condition of those peoples, but by the lovers of liberty, thronghout the world. 3. That a copy of these resolutions be for warded to the family of the deceased as well as to the Minuter of the UU ted States resident at the capital of the German Empire, to bo by, him communicated through the legitimate channel to the presiding officer of the legislative body of which h was a member. These resolutions have been returned by Prince Bismarck to the German Minister at Washington, with a counter request that he return them to tho American Congress, as the position of Lasker in Germany was not such as to justify the resolution. Bismarck claims that a 4high political principle" formed the basis of his action in this matter. The London Time, commenting upon the insolence of tho German autocrat, says: "One thing is certain. We have not heard the last of the Lasker incident. The Americans are much too proud, too sensitive, and too independent for that." It is believed at Washington tltet, unless the State Department chooses to pursue a course of pusillanimity that sbull cover the American name with disgrace the world over, this matter will lead to grave international complications.1 On the question of the return of the Lasker resolutions, "Congressman Heed, of Maine, insists that it is the Heicb6tag, and notCongress, that has been insulted by Bismarck; that the document was sent to the Reichstag, and if Bismarck does not deliver the message the Heichstag should move in the matter. A great discussion has been caused by the incident in the German journals.
The birthday of George Washington was commemorated in Chicago by a general suspension of commercial and financial business and a parade by the militia. The old settlers of Milwaukee had a banquet at tho Kirby Houee, with speeches by Gen. Fairchild and Horace Hublee. Gov. Itobinson held a reception in the Capitol at Washington, which was attended by over 5,000 persons. The Board of Education of Omaha, Neb., refused to sanction the closing of the schools in honor of the day, causing a good deal of comment in the city. The ball given by Minister Sargent, at Berlin, in honor of The great patriot's birthday, was attended by 200 Americans. At Paris a banquet was given by the Stanley Club, sixty guests being present. FOREIGN. De Lesseis and Coppee become members of the French Academy Immortals. The British House of Commons reaffirmed i:s resolution excluding- Brad laugh from the t all the vote being 824 to 173. The communication from Bismarck to Van Eittendocker directing tho return to tho Ameridan House of Representatives of its resolution of condolence at the death of Lasker, has been published. "Any recognition Of the personal qualities of a German," ga)fs Bismarck, especially when made by so important a body as tho House of Representative?, is gratifying to our national feelings. I should have gratefully aceopted the communication made by Minister Sargent, and should have asked the Emperor to empower me to present it to tho Heichstag, it' the resolution had not continued an opinion regarding the object and effect of Laskcr's political actr ivity which was opposed to my convictions, i cannot determine to ask the Emperor for the nocessary po wer to co in in u n 1eate the reBolution to the Reichstag, because I should have officially to advocate before the Emperor an opinion which I cannot reeogni&G aa correct." The friends or tho late Hei r Lasker in tho German Parliament propose to demand of Bismarck an explanation of his course in this matter. . . .In the British House of Commons John O'Connor Power, Home-ruler, in tho debate on Parnoll's amendment in reply to tho Queen's speech, severely attacked the policy of Parneli and his followers. Power 3 speech caused a great sensation and on resuming his seat he was tremendously cheered. Healy replied, comparing Power's speech to dancing on a tight-rone and balancing between the Orangemen and Whigs, The Houdan rebels have scored another success in tho capture of Tokar.

Think it's some kind of a nuisance, with shelves in front for pots and a broken legbehing? Well, it ain't, and it ain't going to have any beans fooling around it. The first dod ga3ted beau that I find climbing over the window of that barn will get the chief part of its trousers loaded with shot!" "I thought it would look pretty," sighed Mrs. Spoopendyke. "That's it!" yawned Mr. Spoopendyke. "You've been thinking again! With your disposition to throw everything into the form of thought you only want a stick of gum and a bad reputation to be a female boarding school! Don't you interfere in this business any more till I call you out to look at the horse! Understand me?" "Yes, dear," replied Mrs. Spoopendyke, leaning on his shoulder and looking closely at the ticket. What do you suppose that 'June, 1881' is on there for." Mr, Spoopendyke glared at the slip, tore it into a thousand pieces, scattered them over the floor and danced on them. " What's it for?" he yelled.
