Whkkijno, W. Va., Feb. 9. The scene at this city is indescribable. As the waters subside the amount of destruction to be seen is appalling. Fire engines are employed in wash ing off the mud from the streets as the water falls. The relief steamers that went down the river to Ben wood, Mouudsville and Bellairfi, Ohio, have hot yet returned. They had on board a plentiful supply of provisions, and ir, nf food will suffer.

Some valuable statistics in regard to Japan are contained in a book on that country recently published in London. The total debt in 1883 was 67,073,238, against 72,000,000 in 1880. In the past three years nearly 3,000,000 have been sf&;diOttfV drawing paper money from circula tion ; in 1882 the exports were valued at 7.447,155. and the imports 5.838. 608. Of the total exports in 1882, V 490,000 were exported by foreigners, and of the imports 5,600,000 import ed by foreigners. Of heCJotal ports, aoouii one million s to Ureat Britain : 2,850,000 to the United States; 2,000,000 to France, and about a million to China.

There are several mines in the neighbor- ttoodof .Cornwall, England, ana one or two in Wales, and besides several mines in Europe the metal nas Deen discovered in Australia, but it has nearly always been found in mining far some other mineral. " Tin sells in England for 60 to 90 per ton, or reduced to Lnited btates money rrom iuu to iou per ton, aim its high price on the markets of the world lends additional value to the discovery at Kings Mountain. So far as we know no vein has yet been discovered there, but there are out croppings of the ore at several points it;tW locality which indicate that ! one will be fenind, and if it proves to be as valuable as its importance would seem to suggest, it will be a sure enough bonanza to the individu al who holds the title deeds to the upper crust of old mother earth im mediately above the treasure. A sample of the pure tin. as it was reduced from the ore by Prof. Han na, is at The Observer office, where it can be seen by the curious. WHEEUNd, W.

To add to the horrors of the flood at Bridge nort n.. this morning at 10 o'clock, J. C. Dent, of the firm of Wells & Dent, "druggist, "in Heinten block, went lnto the store with an alcohol lamp-. The store had been more tha n two-thirds submerged and a barrel of gasoline bad been upset. The gas from this had risen to the second story, and no sooner did it come in contact with the flames of the lamp than an explosion took place aad the building was set on fire. Dent, who was bad ly burned, jumped from the second story window and received serious internal injuries. The Wheeling fire department was unable to cross the Island and consequently the fire could not be checked. Loss $48, 500 ; insured $17,000.

" , . Be careful what tonic you take 'r Btowttis Iron Bitters contains t.ie only preparation of iron which can be taken without injury to the teeih or other organs. The old-fashioned preparation of iron which the physicians used to give, had such a powerful chemicataction on the; teeth as .first to eat the enamel and then to ruin their inner substance. Pimples mean vitiated blood. Impurities are in the blood because that vital fluid has not the strength to drive them out. Iron in the blood means enrichment and strength. It means a royal, red color to every corpuscle that enlivens the blood. It means a smooth, clear, beautiful skin, sparkling eyes, a vigorous step, and a cheerful heart. Everybody likes to be beautiful, and everybody has a right to be, as far as circumstances will allow. A pimpled skin is not lovely. Nobody would seek it as a recommmendation. There is no use of having a face all covered with pimples, as long as you can buy Brown's Iron Bitters, which, by invigorating and purifying the blood, will drive the pimples away. There is nothing violent in the operation of Brown's Iron Bitters. On the contrary it is gentle, although powerful. It rectifies the functions of organs 4i which are disordered. It tones the stomachV and. enables that organ to. dp its natural work of digesting food. It helps the liver tQ dowhat is expected of it, and relieves the kidneys from many of the disorders which are pecu liar to them. . -j-. - As a family medicine and a medicine for the people Brown's Iron Bitters takes the lead. . : i Buy a bottle of your druggist, and try it. 13 It Lames 5 IAXKJKJJKJ enrs PHILADELPHIA and NEWARK and Hta's FINE SHOES A SPECIAf-TV.
