J!.d;tor I'ress, Most of your readers have perhaps, heard of the awful cycloue that visited this beautiful city, Muuday, June 1st, but tbiukiuglbat many of these inay uot have read tbe particulars of its awful destruction, if you will allow me I will tell you ru meagre terms of the havoo which it wrought.' I ,wss at Seueoa, 8. C, at tbat time aud could have corns here at ouce, but I did uot care to be ou the scene aud look upon tbe many dead, dying, and uiaugM and torn, nor hear the heart reudiug cries of ths bereav ed. So after calmuess and some order were restored, I visited the oeue, sud I aseure you the first glimpse eveu, beggars description. From direct Information it. seems tbat two opposite storm clouds met uear the Gainesville cottou mills, aud combining tbeif forces, without warning, swooped dowu ou this ill-fated section deal lug out death aud destruction such as is seldom seeu. The first work it did was to destroy the, ware rooms of the Gsiuesville .Mills. Next it blew the fourth story of the cotton mills dowu ou tbe third floor, and the two crushed through to the secoud floor, where they lodged. If I were to use every word iu the Euglisa lauguage which I might be able to commaud I could iu'but a small degree give auy idea of the niaguilude aud awfuluess of tbe scenes aud de struoliou wrought, lmsgine the thousauds of buy apiudlea whirr ing and the hundreds of looms weaviug, all emblems of prosperi ty and iudustry, orated nvstly by little boys aud girls sud worn ou, uuconoious of thj nearness auy danger, tih in an instant most anatiilated and a huiUlred livesjuAtched away, aud hu ueonlc mauuled aud torn iu ev . - . ery conceivable way. The e rum bling brick walls and,, tbe Hying aud whirliug timbers griudiug and batteriug out human lives iu n dironiinu almost beyond the nompreheusqiy "jfljjsi, aB f liend. No.( yfOiathe GaiuV yi FromV -yville mills tbe cyoloue speuxyln its awful fury, destroyiugheTOi mills, Kieotrio car sheds, aud still ouward iu its fury, tearing away great brick structures like sd many straws, wheu it alighted agaiuon the bills of New Holland, where were situa ted ifte cottages occupied by the families wbo were employees in the racolet cottou mills, voir a little while ago I stood ou those hills aud viswed tbe ruiu aud deso lation and suffering wrought there. Out of .75 cottages, iu each of which lived two families, ouly ten re left standiog. In ths houses destroyed the - mother aud, her smallest oues were left" to gusrd tbe homes, ahiie the father aud larger children were at work iu the mills or elsewhere, but when the father aud older childreu returned tbey found uu mother or little sis ters, or brothers nor eytn homes. Some of these were later found dead or dying among tbe debris, oftsu at considerable distance away. I was snowu the places where many were tound dead, aud the uew made graves where over oue-huudred lie ; sleepiug further tolls of its awfuluess. ! The matt path of the cyolone is about two huudred yards wide and about a mile aud a half long. Along this path nothing was left. I saw the plate where large buil dings bad stood. Notbiug wss left every thing gone. Many hou sea were blown fully half a mile, and no two pieces of some could be fouud together. I am told by reliable people, and was shown tbe places, where people, were blown for two to three bundled yards. Irou lamp posts were twisted like wire, telegrspb posts, large trees were twisted off feist above tbe ground. One large brick stable contained horses and all were killed, while a family who lived there were uot hurt, just carried stable and horses away leaviug ths people. The Injured are being cared for very well, three large nospitals hsve been established, fully $20,000 hse already been sent to there, and each train brings more. The oily is almost a mass of humau beings, who are vfsitiug the ruins. The cities, towus, churches aud individuals, from far aud uear, are sending money, prpvisious sud clotbiug daily, while the government hss issued ratioud for 1000 for Ihirly days.

" BETTER HIGHWAYS.- t:ow THEY WOULD BENEFIT THB . AMERICAN FARMERS. ' rnfmn Utti tk riuaelnl 4 Manx Other Advantage f Qom R..--Iur.ul Value el Laad Seae Illhwar larTaa, la aa address before a good roads convention recently Professor Latta of Pordu uulversity. Indiana, spoke of tbe aUvantace of good roads aa fol low; . :.. " i Tbat good road have a money value to farmers will be crnnted by nil. That tbe money value of Improved highway is alone sufficient to Justify tbe cost of their-construction will be confidently claimed or readily admitted by mauy farmer, questioned by others and de nied by not a few. V In view of tbe financial and many other advantage of good roads a ma jority of the farmer would favor their construction as rapidly as practicable under some efllcleut, ecououilcnl and (equitable system of highway Improve ment But there I a considerable pro portion of tbe farmers, doubtless ouo nf th and possibly one-fourth, wbo have little knowledge or appreciation of the benefits of good roads and wbo there fore object on account t tbe great cost r of tu.ntiu - iUave to beat their -fuir- burden of sucli ImprOTemeut. ThrjTirm) credit, not wholly without reason, tbe statements and conclusions of many public writers aa to the losses aud talue to farmers from poor and food roads respectively j hence tbey view with apprehension tbe general agita tion In favor of improved highways. Ignoring or undervaluing the educa tional and social advantages a well as th comfort and enjoyment of good road, or feeling unable to pay tbe price of such benefits, these farmers regard with distrust and disfavor meas ure for highway Improvement, and tbey are likely to oppose effort for tbe betterment of our roads nnles tbey can first ! convinced tbat good roads will prove a paying financial Investment, Bpcnidng. therefore, IU behalf or those VUo for any reason 4 re not influenced by th blgherscoualderatlou in favor of improved highways. 1 raise tbe ques tion, Will it pay the' fanner In dollars and cents to Improve their public road i ; Beton attempting to answer tills question let us consider In what ways permanently good, ronds wilt prove financially beneficial to fanners. All will agree, 1 think, tbat a good road wlll- i'lnrt. Economise time and force tn transportatlen between farm aud mar ket Second.-Enable tbe farmer to take advantage of market fluctuation In buying and selling. -' TbinL-Permlt the transportation of farm products and purchased commodi ties during time of comparative lei- Fourth.-Reduce th wear and tear on borers, harness and vehleles. Flfth.-Enhance th market value of real estate. : " ' But there Is another side to-this ques tion vis. tbe increased .value of laud from highway Improvement J oat here the objection may be raised tbat tbe Improved road would not Increase tbe ptoduetlve enpaclty of tbe land, while th enhanced commercial value would Increase the taxes. Let ns, for the lake qf argument, grant tbl plausible but fallacious objection and then find what It amounts to. Let us suppose tbe In- r crease In appraisement for taxation to be $4 an acre and tbe tax rate 14 per cent. This would mean an annual a crease tn taxes of S cents an acre, or S3 a hundred acres. Would uot our ob jector after enjoying the benefit of good roads' be very willing to give therefor tbe extra $5 If necesssryj Would be keep tbe money and go back to the thraldom ef mud roads! if so, be has tbe option of selling bis farm at an advance, according to tb average eatlmate of hi brother fnrme'r, that will mor than doubly reimburse blu for hi expenditure ou highway Im provements, and be can thou remove to some nattv wild wbose quiet waters have not been "troubled" by tbe spirit of progress. la view of tbe general recognition among farmer of tbe necessity and benefits pt good roada I am encouraged to beUere tbat large proportion of tbe fanning classes will heartily Join with the people or tbe cities and towns in an effort to devise, adopt aud put lute exeeutlon some efficient, ecouomlc al and equitable system of highway Improvement Tbat there -are some who would realise little substantial gain from highway Improvement ninst be admitted, tut! to base an argument galnat good rouds en this fact would be to do gross Injustice to ttie great majority of Industrious, thrifty, euter prising farmers wbo are doing so much to make Indlnnn one ef the foremott agricultural state of tbe Union.
