Clos-son after the crayon drawing by Samuel Bowse. Apart from its value as the best portrait of Em- erson, it is the most remarkable instance ever given of the possibilities of wood engraving.

Two eminent English writers contribute illus trated articles Henry W.Lucy and Amelia B. Edwards. The former nflfier the title of "Glimp ses of Great Britons (Caught at Westminister giving us living pictures of the eminent members of the British Farliment; with interesting des criptions of parlimentary methods. The article is illustrated by sketches drawn by Harry Fur- niss, and portaits. Amelia B.

Edwards contributes a curi ously interesting article on the recently discov ered Theban Mummies. Miss Edwards easily threads the labyrinth of the Egyptian dynasties; and her acconnat of the post-mortem adventures of Egyptian kings, and in particular of the tomb- breakers who despoiled the Necropolis of Thebes under the Barneses, is ef thrilling interest. The article is illustrated by sixteen engravings pictures of the mummies, and funerary accessor ies found with them, from photographs taken un der the supervision of Emit Brugsch; and representation of Dayr-el-Baharee and its Cave, where the mummies were discovered, from drawings by Tristram Ellis and Professor Mas- pero. Mr. Lathrop's third instalment of "Spanish Vistas," beautifully illustrated by Re in hart, re lates mainly to Cordovia.

G. W. Sheldon writes entertaingly about the Old Ship-builders of New York, in the days of Christian Bergh, Henry Eckford, Jacob A. West-ervelt, and Wiliiam H. Webb.

The article is il lustrated by portraits of these remarkable men. pictures of some noted ships of that day, and views of Henry Steers' Model-room and the Old Mechanics' Bell-tower. Mr. Sheldon opens the article with a graphic and picturesque descrip tion of the East side of New York city fifty years ago. Octavia Ilensel contributes some pleasing reminiscences of Franz Liszt, with portrait.

In the second part of "The History of Wood- Engraving" Mr. G. E. Woodberry treats at some length of Holbein and Bewick, and (hen concludes with a rapid review of modern work. The article is illustrated by facsimiles of old en gravings.

Julian Hawthorne contributes a paper on Ralph Waldo Emerson a subject treated also at considerable length by Mr. George William Curtis, in the Editor's Easy Clutir. Short storied are contributed by Edward Ev erett Hale, Marie Ilowland, and Josephine Harper Fiske. The poetry of the number consists of tributes to Longfellow by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps and A. T.

Reading the graphic description of the storm as published in the Times, one can't help but wonder that so lew people were killed or wounded. The saddest part of the sad story was the account of the depth of four school girls at St. Marys college, near the city. The heavy cupola of the build ing blew off, falling upon another part of the building where the students were sleeping, crushing to death these four girls and slightly injuring several others. With the exception of one man.

who was unknown, blown into the river and drowned, these were the only lives ost so far as heard from, although there were numerous narrow escapes ana quite a number received slight injuries. KANSAS CITY. At Kansas City the storm was not so severe as at Leaven worth, but baa enough. Only one or two persons were killed. The los3 fh property will aggregate several thousand dollars.

THE IOWA CYCLONE. Grinnell, the Iowa town wrecked by a cyclona on Saturday evening, is on the main line of the Chicago, Rock Island Pacific road, in Powesheik county, and about 120 miles west of the Mississippi river. It has a population of about 1,500, several large flouring mills, five churches, the Iowa college, a foundry, etc. Malcolm, also devastated by the tornado, is a village of about 500 inhabitants, in the same county, and about nine miles east of Grinnell. The cyclone came from the southwest, an ominous funnel-shaped cloud, with a roaring, rotary motion, and it struck Grinnell about nine o'clock in the even ing.

The loss of life at Grinnel will exceed ifty, and over one hundred and fifty were wounded, many of them seriously. At Malcolm the dead number eight, and ten or twelve others are wounded. The financial loss is estimated at about 000. In the country outside of the two towns the destruction wrought was very great, and many persons were killed or wounded. The total loss of life, in towns and country, will probably reach one hundred, and the wounded over two hundred.

We have only mentioned a few places where the storm seemed to rage the fiercest. Many other towns and the country within the scope of the storm sunered more or less loss. The aggre gate amount of which will swell to a very large figure. PREJUDICE KILLS. "Eleven years our daughter suffered on a bed of misery under the care of several of the best (and some of the worst) physicians, who gave her disease various names, but no relief, and now she is restored to us in good health by as simple a remedy as Hop Bitters, that we had poohed at for two years, before using it.

Last Friday night about midnight our county was visited by one of the most destructive torn ado 3 within the recollection of the oldest inhabitant. The storm did not come as a cyclone, although it may have assumed that form in places, but as an old fashioned tornado with a wind that swept nearly everything before it. So far as we have been able to learn the width of the track of the storm was from six to twelve miles through the county, the north line commencing at Havensville, passing a little south of Soldier City, Circleville and Holton, a little north of Tippinville and passed out of the county in a nearly due east course. The following are some of the details of the effect of the hurricane. We are gratified to be able to state that no' lives were lost, and so far as we can learn, no one seriously hurt NEAR SOLDIER CITY.

George Clowe's house, occupied by Henry Owens, was blown about 100 feet and left on the steep bank of the creek, the floor standing at an angle of CO degrees. The family were in the house, but escaped unhurt. John T. Bell's house was blown about 20 feet, but was left standing right side up with care considerable damage done to furniture and dishes. The family had taken refuge under the bluff and were exposed to the heavy rain.

NEAR JAMES CROSSING. Saunders Meek's house was blown 40 feet and considerably racked. His family had taken refuge in a cave. Box house on James' place, unoccupied, removed about 60 feet. Thos.

Rudy's barn torn to pieces, one hotse killed and another badly hurt. An. Johnson's house unroofed. An old house on Mrs. E.

Fairbank's place unroofed, and the chimneys of her dwelling blown down-Windmill on Mrs. Clements' place completely demolished. Wila D. Thompson's house was blown all to pieces and scattered over the prairie. Mr.

and Mrs. Thompson, and a boy living with them, were in bed in the house, and strange to say, the two former were unhurt except some slight bruises. The boy was pretty badly bruised, but, we learn, not seriously. Johnathan Ray's corn crib was blown all to smithereens. NEAR SOUTH CEDAR.

Three houses belonging to ThosJ King, Henry Champlin and, Thos. McCowan were blown all to pieces. Five other large houses were blown off their foundations and one of them moved 100 feet without blowing over. A number of other small buildings were blown down. NEAR TI I'FIN VILLE.
