Mr. Richard Oarneiis I barn m struck by lightning the May Queen, and moss covered rocks and wavinir ferns lent a clmrm n f w " W V I 1 8pot;selected for the May -day partr. (The handiwork of Mr, J. A. Wren.) Spon the happy songsters appeared leading their Queen, who is placed on the throne and crowned. As thev finish their rJinrna. the Queen mourns the loss of the twin sister, which occurred on a like occasion three years previous. She is led away to be consoled while a few remain and tell the cause of ber sadness, how the gipsies had taken away her twin sister, and it is so dramatically told aa to sug gest to the minds of the young listeners the possibility of another such visitation by the gipsies and half frightened by their own story they Scamper off to join their companions. Now the stvle of music changes and the gundy dress and minstrel song of the strolling gipsy band takes their places. This scene was very blight and the solos and choruses were gems of the kind. During their brief stay, the "old woman" or "fortnne teller" explains why 'Florence" (the twin sister) has been secretly conducted to the next camp. With a joyous chorns they break camp and moved on. "Florence Stanly" now steals into the grove, finds the May Queen's throne, aud soon perceives the May-day party coming. She tests their friendship is taken into their party; there is mutual recognition between the sister, and the recovered twin sister1 is placed on the throne : with "Victoria !" a splendid chorus, the curtain falls. Such in brief is the story of the operetta. The cast was as follows: Mab Stanly (May Queen) Miss Ad die White: Florence Stanlj- (Twin Sister) Miss Hat tic Bringle; Preciosa a Gip6y Siuger Miss Joseph iue Maker ; Maids of honor, interlocutors and chorus singers, embracing the whole of Mrs. Neaves' pupils. Miss Addie White did herself great credit in her natural rendition of the character assigned her, while Miss Brin gle's sweet, soft voice and fiuo acting made her the chief attraction of the latter part of the performance Miss Josephine Baker was loudly ap plauded in her gipsy songs. The general support of these leading characters was tirst-class much better in fact thanis seen in traveling troops and showed plainly their strict and careful training, Altogether, the presentation and per formance was in every detail well nigh perfect stage setting, costumes, stage presence, acting, singing, clear verbial enunciation in short the ensemble or entire mis-en ittte was so super excellent, and almost faultless as to be above the critic who carps. The audience was en rapport with the stage, sympathetic aud warmly responsive throughout. Our own citizens, and the "stranger within our gates" all join iu this opinion of the performance. 1 . -4.1 Prof, aud Mrs. Keave as teachers and tiaincrs need no commendation from us, as tueir reputation is not counneu to the limits of tlrts State.

Th e 4ia tastefully and bea.itifully Ui lie fuse Saturday night last is likely to be memorable as a time of deluge with the in habitants of this neighborhood. The rain commenced falling slowly about 7 o'clock iu the evening. There was nothing ex traordinary iu the appearance of the clouds, but the rain continued to increase in volume uutil by 8 or 8i o'clock it be came tremendous, and continued without abatemeut uutil about 1 o'clock, Sunday morning. Dnring litis tiniei by the best sources of information, there was not less than 5 inches of water fell. Some esti mates go as high as ten inches, but they are probably due to unfair circumstances. The storm was accompanied from first to last by almost incessant flashes of light ning aud the heaviest peals of thunder. The artillery of heaven seemed to have been turned loose to shake the earth to its very foundation. As might be expect ed the e licet 8 of such a storm were disas trous to growing crops of all kinds, aud to the lauds. Tho soil of all rolliug lands not protected by grass roots or something else, was swept away, and the plants either carried off or left hanging by roots all exposed. The soil was either banked up in the flats, submerging the plants, or borne off down the gulches beyond recov ery. The damage iu this way was great aud almost irreparable. But that done to the crops iu the creek and branch bottoms was greater. These lands were completely covered by the water from 24 to 48 hours, in some cases for a longer time. The swift currents sweenintr over such lauds, was fearfully destructive to both mops aud lauds. Mr. 8, F. Lord, proprietor of the Macay lands, estimates his loss at $5,000. The lands of that tract formerly covered by the mill poud (upwards of 300 acres) vrtis nil pet iu crops. The water rose above it to the depth of from 2 to 8 feet, and rushed ovei the old dam in a sheet two feet thick. ItfT is believed by persons who saw it Sunday morning, that there was more water ou the ground theu than at any time while it was used as a mill poud. A similar disaster befell the owners of low grounds aloug the creek all the way down to the river. They were swept clem iu places, aud damaged in all the ways it is possi ble for such a flood to do. All the bridges from Macay 's mill down to the river were either swept away or ruined. Mr. Keply's mill, formerly known as ltobiusou's, six miles north-west, was washed away by the flood, together with contents, comprising a considerable quan tity of wheat, flour, corn, &e. Mr. Adam 11 art man's mill dam, ou Crane. Creek, three miles south, was broken considerable damage done to above the floor. The dam of "Shaver's Mill," on Grant's creek, four miles north east, which has withstood many a flood, was also washed away. ENOINK DITCHED. At a fill of some 25 feet, about fonr miles from Salisbury on the Western N. C. Railroad, some damage was done to the track, which occasioned the demolishing of a fine engine. The ontlet for the water was small, yet sufficiently large for the branch which makes across the road. The embankment was made up of dirt from adjoining cuts, which happened to be largely composed of fine particles of mica loosed from the conglomerate in its natural decomposition. This mud, when wet, is almost as slippery as quicksand. When this immense body of water rushed against the bank, it gave way in a semi circle, bending the track with it. Mr. Clark, the engiueer on the east bound train, had just passed through the "deep cut" with the engine alone, for the pur pose of reconoiteriug the road before bringing the passenger train over it. When he arrived at this point he felt the track giving way ; reversed the en gine, put the fire out and leaped to the bank barely escaping with his life. He hoard the crash and saw his engine disappear. When visited on Monday morning, the track was found repaired so as to allow travel, but the engine lay upside down, about teu feet below the level of the track, spanning the narrow gorge the smoke stack was mashed to one side, while the whole cab lay some fifteen feet below in the branch. But already the work of re moving had been begun, all the smaller and more delicate parts of tho eugiue had been removed to the company's shops here. The most remarkable part of the whole business is in the brief space of time re quired by Supt. McBee to clear the track and have the trains going interrupting travel only one day. The Storm in Franklin. At Home, June 1 1th, 1883. Editor Watchman : After a somewhat protracted drought, which had much retarded the growth ot all growing crops, we had, on the evening ofrhursday the 7th inst., an excellent rain, which put the lands in good plowing order, reviving the crops, and enabling our farmers to set out their tobacco, cab bage, potato and other plants, of which we have a tolerable abundance, exceptiug the former, which are rather scarce. It was reserved for us to witness, on the night of Saturday the 9th, the most terrific rain storm it has ever been our lot to see. About au hour before sun down wo had a vcry respectable rain, which lasted until about nightfall. Soon after that, the lurid clouds teemed to con centrate from the south, and amidst deep toned peels of thunder, aud vivid flashes of lightning, such a rain fell as we hope never agaiu to witness: It continued with unabated fury, for five or six hours, causing many forebodings of what would bo the result. . Early iu the morning came the intelli gence that the lower carp poud was bro ken. We found nothing but the bare channel left. It had been stocked with 80 carp, most of which were the genuine scale carp, aud were about 7 inches long. All were swept out and lost, except one which was picked up and put iu the up per pond. ; Soon after daylight three live, four pound carp which had washed out of the upper pond were picked up and returned. Aud then were found two others on dry land which were too far exhausted to live, and we ate them. They were of very superior quality, rich, jucy nnd sweet, the flesh being more solid aud less course in texture than that ot the commou pond trout, yet very much resembling that fish in flavor, l he loss ot cu carp was a great calamity ; but we shall rebuild, and restock the pond. A very large amount of damage was doucto the lauds. The surface eoil of the bottom lauds was literally swept off, corn torn up by the roots, meadows sub- mergeu aud the graiss covered with feaud and drift, so as to be ruined so far as the present crop is concerned, r resli plowed upland's badly washed and damaged, wheat and oats blown down, and badly tangled, fences washed away ; even the birds were drowued in the shade trees in our yard, and many were picked up in the morning. The fish pond of the late Wm. M. Kin- caid was also broken, aud the entire stock of mullets lost. Jacob N. Reply's grist mill, wjth a large amount of wheat, corn aud flour was washed away and entirely lost. Some two or three of the public bridges across Grant's Creek are gone. Iu short, the damage done to this township is in calculable. It is sickening to look at our washed fields. W. It. FitALEr. MINING. T. K. BRUXEK, MANAGER.

' : Disaster has followed disaster during the five months of tho present year First came the Milwaukee Ore, resulting in the destruction of nearly a hundred lives. Following this was the burning of the winter circus in Russia, whereby 150 persons met a horrible death. Then came the frightful floods in Ceutral Eu rope, spreading destruction.

The rank and file of the Republican party wished to give the contest a national character by making John Sherman the candidate, but the leaders felt sure of success ou lecal issues, auu insisted upon the nomination of Judge Foraker. The effect of this kind of coutest will be to take trom Ohio her commanding posi tion as an October State.

Over 100 persons have been killed iu railroad dis asters in the United States. The victims of the Braidwood mine horror were near ly 100. Fully 350 people have gone down at sea. Decoration Day brought a remarkable list of calamities, result ing in the death of forty-one per sons rind the injury of 300 more.

W II 0. For the Watclinian. Tuoiiiasvilje Commencement. We have just enjoyed here delightful commencement exercises in three parts. First, the sermon on Wednesday night by Rev, C. C. Dodsou. Second, the ad dress and other occurrences of the 7th, proper to commencement day. Third, the concert ou Thursday night. The sermon was an able aud eloquent comment ou our Saviour's promise to Mary, Mat. xxvi, 13. The address by Hou. A. M. Scales, on the theme, "Wo man at home, iu the church, and in the State ,n.sbowed that woman is uot expect ed to take au active part iu political strife and other affairs of Government but it was throughout a most powerful and a most beautiful incentive to woman to wield a holy influence at horns aud a acred iullueuce iu behalf of religion. The concert at night was indeed bril liant. The young ladies did great credit to themselves and to thetr teacher, Miss Marion, iu their vocal aud instrumental music. Iu the latter they showed good taste and high cultivation. In tho for mer, there were combined elements of sweetness, strength and harmony. i Among many .it tractive scenes, perhaps the most pleasant was the presentation of a gold watch aud chain to Miss Nettie J. Lopp, of Davidsou couuty, by Geu. Scales, in-behalf of the young lady's Uu cle and Aunt, by whom she had liceu ed ucated as an adopted daughter. This was an evidence of how highly they ap preciated the diligence of the fair gill iu having passed triumphantly through the eight regular schools of the college, as a full graduate, at barely fourteen years of age.

In giving this political division of the States the Sun says: "The most noticeable fact in this rec ord is that the Democratic States include every part of the Union, aud all its ex tremes, North and South, East and West. This is the first time since the civil war wheu the strength of that party has been distributed over so vast an area.
