Tho immoe- disto issue was on the dofluitive ostablishmont of tho Ropablio, a monsnre brought forward by the Governmont, and sustained by tho Liberals. A fowdaye ago, theConservatives opposed thom- solves to this moasure by an intorpollation, call- ing for tho organization of » Conservative mi- nority and & decluration of & Conservative polioy on tho .part of the Gevernment. Tho moves menta in tho Asgembly for two wooks past linve beon tending to tho consolidation of tho factions opposed to M. THors for a voto on this issno, The Right, or’Consorvativo sido of the As- sombly, has comsisted of Bonupartists, Oulonuists, ond Logitimists; tho Loft, or Tiberal, bas conalstod of Modorato Ropublicana ond Radicals, The foctiong of ench side have conlossed,—the ono into = gonoral Monarchieal party, tho othor Into a genoral Republican party, —asiuking tholr distinctive fontures in fho broad itsuo whother or not the Roepublie shall be dofinitely proclaimod as the pormanent Govern- mont of France. A fow days ago, Lt was an~ nounced that thers had been n conlition of the Monarobists with the purpoao of overthrowing Thiers, and progenting the Duo d'Aumalo ns their condidato for Prevident. Binco that timo thoro has hoon soveral tost votes with varioua rosults, Intho recent election of the'Prosident of tho Assembly, M. Buffot was put forward as tho candidato of the Monarchists, and was eloctod over M. Martol, tho Ropublican candidato. Blortly aftor, howover, tho Liborals oloctod M. DMartol 28 the Tirst Vico-Prosident of tho Assembly. With those varying results, aud o oloso division of the two consolldated partics, it was impossiblo to foro- toll tho vote on tho groat quostion. This was taken on Snturdny, with o decided and growing vietory for the Monarchical party. Tho voto againat meking tho dofinitive ostablishment of thioRepublio the ordorof thoday stood 360 to844, Then Thiors rosignoed, and the vote on the ac- coptanco of hig resignation was 868 for and 839 agaiust. Tho vato which olocted Marshal Maclfahon Prosident of tho Ropublic was 890, Though tho roal fssue scems to have boon that of Monarchy agatust tho Ropublio, it could not bo 8o doclared openly, for the Monarehists of the Assombly aro divided smong themsolves. Tho poliey on which they united was tho profossed fonr of Radicalism, undor which catogory they included all who favor thg por- manont cstablishment of the = Republio. B, Thiors waa elected sa tho candidato of the Consarvatives ata time when this side of tho Assembly had not idontifled itself so com- plotely with tho Monarchical movement, M. Thlers himsolf had always been a AMonarchiat, but, linving been electod to sustain and admin- ister o Ropublican form of government; he per- formed that duty coneciontiously and intelli~ gontly. e hos beon cangorvative in all his movements, but has refused to participate in the apprehonsions of Nadicalism which the Jon- sorvativos gonorally have ontertained.” Ho ro~ fusod, somo montlia ago, at tho domand of the Conservativos, to put a stop to Gambottn's Re- publican spoechos fu tho provinees, or to pro- claim an oflicial disnpproval of tho sentimenta which Gambotta advanced. From this time on, tho Congorvatives have insisted upon regarding Thiers as o Radion], and have made tholr fight agaiust Dlim. All “woll-definod parties in Franco aro oxtromists, snd BI.

'To accompligh this, tho Northwostorn Railrond has boen in tho liabit of carrying grain on barges from Winona down the Mississippl River to Olinton or Fiilton, thoro transforring it to cars ond bringing it di- xoct to Obicago. If the rato from Olinton or TFulton to Uhloago 18 20 conty, sud the North- western Rallrosd Lrings grain from Winous to Clieago, which is a greater distanco, but in part ontside of the Btate, for tho samo amount, can’ tho local shippar at Tulton, Illinois, domand that bis froight to Chicago shall bo taken at o less or pro rata rate according to the through tariff made from Winona ? If ho can enforco such s domand, then the Northwestorn Railroad must abandon ita Minnesola grain trade, which will thon go in bulk to Milwaukes, This would be diserimina- tlon with a vengeanco, rondered nocossary by tho very lnw which was Intended to abolish dis- crimination, Wo ‘aro of opinion that the demand of the Fulton shipper, that his freight should bo taken at less than 20 conts, bocauso tho same ftroight is carried for that amount from Winons, which Is & grantor distanco lying within another Stato, cannot bo onforced. The Northwostorn Railroad would not make its contract in Illinols to carry from Winona to Chicago, but-In another Siate, It moy assumo, thorefore, that tho 20 cents which it charges is chargod for tho distance bo- tweon Fulton and Chieago, and that it trausports tho samo froight from Winona to Fulton, a strip of territory under the jurisdiction of othor Btates, for nothing, in order to secure the busi- neen, It would dovalve upon’ the local shipper at Falton to provo that this was not tho fact; thnt the rallrosd was charging or paying some- thing for the transportation from Winons to Fulton, and, thoreforo, not receiving the full rato from Fulton to Chicago. Thiswould boan exceed- ingly difiioult thing to do. The Court would not roquirs tho Northwestorn Raflrosd Company to produce a contract mado in another Blato to cover transportation outsido of the Stato of Illi- nois. The {inforonco or prosumption of the local shipper at Olinton, that ho was paying & Inrgor rate to Obicago, than was phid for the sumo distanco in Minois by tho Winona shippor, would count for notbing without direct proof of tho fact. [ The principlo of law which detormines this engo iy, that tho Btato of Jlinois can exerclso control over the Northwestorn Raflroad Com- puny only for that portion of the road which lioy within the houndarics of Mlinois. Outsido of this Btato tho Northwostern Railrosd, or any allcond, can oarry - froight nt &' loss or for mothing it it plenses, without con- flicting with tho laws of Ilinols, Laoch Binte oxerclses jurlediction over that part of rallroad luo Jylng within it boundarles, aud ovor o other part, Though tha eutlra rail- road lne moy bo the propertyof a sfuglo cor- poration, etill, if it ruus through various Statos, it orlginally sccurad tho rlght of way from each of tho Btatos traveraed, aud each Stato rotaiug its ordinary juriedictlon aver that partof tho rond lying within lta boundarlos, This principle of lnw was once lald .down by Judge Btory in tho caso of tho Blackatono Cangl Company, owning & canal partly in Mussnchusotts and partly in Rhodo Taland, A contraversy arage ro- quiriug a deoision as to Stute jurladiction, and was carxlod into the United States Court. Judge Btory thon docided that the canal, although «awnod by ono company, conslsted of two separate and Indopondent corporationg derlying thelr existenco from two saparato sourcos of power, to-wit: tho Statos of Masanchusotts aud Rhode Tulond, and that neither Btate could extend lts Jurisdiotion oversn inch of the cansl in the other ‘Btato, ‘Tho samo principle of lsw applies to rail- 085, and [nkibits thoe Blate of Tllinols from in- quiring What any rallrond comipany doos with that portion of its rond locatod in Towa, Wiacons sin, Minnesota, or any othor Stats.

Inoredible as somo of thoso dotalls msy appenr, thoy are nevertheless true. No words can oxaggorate tha dostructive power of ono of thoso cyclones, whon it gathors full forco and sots out upon its orrand of dissstor and death, In o Jovel country nothing can with- stand their shock, The firmly-rooted mountaing offer the only burrier to their progress, and oven upon & mountain-side they will destroy troos, shrubs, and vogetation, nnd hurl rocks sbont like playthings, before they arc finally dissi- pated. Tho recont tornado, in its various fen- tures, rocalls that which deatroyed tho towns of Camancho aud Now Albany, in the samo Stato, somo years ugo, with tho excoption that tho Camancho tornedo traveled much fastor than tho Waghington ono, and passed over a much wider and longer ox- tont of country, not baving oxpendod its foreo entirely until It roached moma pnint in Eastorn Wisconsin, In their mothods of destruc~ tlon, howover, the two wore procisely similar, In oach of theso disnstors the samo pocullarity of total destruction was visible. It is not romark- sblo that large and prominent objects liko houscs, churchos, barns, or even trees, shonld Do rent to picces when struck by this terrible whirling wind, but its capbilitics for destroying, toarlog asunder, splitting, and litorally picking to plecea tho smallest and most minute objects evon, nlmost staggor bolief. The oceontricitiea ond freaks of thoso tornadoos in csusing do- struction bave no paraliol in any other of the natural forces. Thoe Oamanche tornado, like that at Washington, plucked tho fenthers from fowls, literally flayed cattlo, disemboweled shoop, cloaned corn-cobs of every kernel, toro grass up by the roots, wronchod the leavea out ©of books, tore tho loaves off from shrubs, and denudod trees which were not torn up of 'tholr bark. Thore was, in fact, nothing so small or ingignificant as to escaps thelr visltation, They wero thoroughly impartinl in the bestowal of tholr favors, although tho results of their rough lhandling of things were not always the same. For instance, in the Cimanche tornsdo, ono piano was whirled through tho air for at loast an eighth of a mile, and whon it came down alighted like a eat, fook rat, into tho solk mud on ho rlver bank, nono tho worso for its acriul Journoy, exeopt that after such a shaking upit nooded tuning.
