The Town of Jefférson, thirteen miles abovehere, is flooded, and there is about three feet of water -on the railroad track.

There are veports of loss of life, but canmot be traced to reliable authority. The fate of the people who lived in the Village of Green Tshnd, which was entirely swept away Tuesday night, yet remains unknown, mid the preafest anxiety exists rexarding them. The water raised rapid'y and in the night, and itds feared the inuyabitanis were nol waried in time to save thewmseives and were lost. Weather cold and cloudy. BISMARCK, D. T. B1syARcE, D.

Milwaukee. A STUPID BLUN_DER, Wis., Disfranchised by an Inexcusa= bie Error in the Legislative District Apportionment. Special Dispatch to The Chicazo Tribune. AapisoN, Wis,, April 2.—4. startling d covery was made by Attorney-General Wi son to-night. Itis that the Committee on Redistricting the State into Senate and As- istricts had omitted the Town of Towa County, thus practically disfranchising over 500 voters and giving 2,300 people no reprasentation in the Assem- bly, a proc: ¢ ding not permitted by the Con- stitunzon. Rig one of the largest towns in Iows County, and how the omission was made is wuaccountable, except that it must have been the work of a blundering committee clerk or the fault of the local Legislative delegation in arranging their own districts. Under the old apportiomment Iawa County was given two members and Riclland two, Neither county has population suflicient for two members each, and the Committee di- vided the two countics into three districts, in such wa to make Republicans certain of carring two, and probably all three. By leaving out Ridgeway one district is made certainly Democratie, and gives Moses M. Strong and Montgomery M. Cothrena chance toget elected to the Assembly, much to the dissatisfaction of Republicans in that locali- ty. The Attorney-General has notified the overnor not to sign the bill, and tne ques- tion now is what can be done. All business wascutoif at1l o’clock this morning pursuant to a resolution adopred by both Iouses. A resolution to recall the bill from the Goy- ernor cannot be_entertained unless unani- mous consent is given for a motion to sus- end the rule entting off busiuess, Brisgs, Democrat, from Iowa County, whose district is wiped out by this blundering arrange- ment. is still here, and would certainly ob- jeet. There are not half a dozen members of the Hotse in the city, and a quorum ean- not be secured before Monday noon, when it'will be the duty of the presiding ofticers to declare the sine-dic adjournment. The bill as passed is certainly unconstitutional, but how to remedy the matter is a conundrum. Twenty Senators, or cousiderably more than jority, have pbtained to-nlght leaves of sence, and only three Senaters besides the dent are in the. city, uot enough to se- all of the Senaté. Those having iu- definit leave canunot be brought back except the Governor calls an extra session, which is very improbable. ‘Che Governor’s plain duty is tovetpthebill. Speaker Bradford belicves that if he entertains a motion to suspend the rules for the consideration of a resolution re- ealling the bill frc.ai the Governor, without a quoruin_voling, it will afford g which the Democrats rts to test the validity ton. It ery probable that the new apportionment will " fail, - and members will e elected mext _ fall — under the apportionment. In such an event trouble is anticipated, as the Constitution express's re- quires a new apportionment every five years. The question is a very grave ong, and the Attorney-General is nervous over it, as the trouble "has arisen in the county where he lives, and his neighbors will hold him re- sponsible if they are disfranchised. The bfame will have to he shared by Representa- tive Rewey, who should have “watched the arrangement of his own county districts. A FATHER'S VENGEANCE. lic Hunts Down the Murderers of His Sons and Slays Them Onec by One. enver (Colo) Disvatch to Cinctnnatl Times-Star. Officers from this State have just returned from Texas with old man Dahlgreen, arrested on a charge of murder, who hasa most remarka- ble history. He lived before the War in the Northern part of Teonessce. His home was n pleasant one, and with his wife and two scos he lived very hapnily on his farm until a quarrel se Dbetween nelghbors. The difficulty was patched, but one of the sons—both of whom had grown to man's estate—conceived that he had been wronged, and one day while be and his brother were passing along the road in & wagon they came up with five inen, their ucighbors, and the quarrel broke out ufresh. The young men were courszeous, and would not bgin- timidated by their opponents. B Hot words led to blows, and the five men, pulling pistols, fired upon 'the Dahlgreen boys and killed them. They ran away, and, fearing the vengeunce of oid man Dubigreen.—for he was even then considered quite un old man,— Jdisappeared from the community. Of course Dablgreen snd Ins wife were nearly distracted at the sad death of their *boys,” of whom they ‘were vory proud, and Mrs. Dablgreen never re- covered from the blow, but about the time the War broke out died, and tbe husbaud was left to Jument tho separation of his Tumily. He concelved the fdea thar nothing was left in this life for him except to obtain vengeance oi the men who bnd robbed him of his sons. He devoted the remainder of his life to thie pur- pose. He began systematically to search for the five men, whose names werc Gridley, Jila Hewitt, Meyers, and o man calted * Black Tom, but whose true name was Lurdy, and one after anotker was met and kifled. e bad no scruples, no conscicace. His sole object was to put_the villains who made life no object 'to htm vut of tho wuy. He took no in- terestin the War. (¢ mattered not whetner the North or Soutn were victors. He shot Mevers snd Lurdy in Tenuessee, nnd escaped the otticers who were set upon his trick. The old man ppeared from hig eountry, and no_traces of him were heard for several years, The muan Gridley died of pncumonts in Cincinnati, and Dlack is_serving outa term in the State Penitentiary at Columbus, O., for bur- zlary. TnJe last of these men, Hewitt, wos slowly but surely tracked Ly Dahlgreen to Colorado, and in a littie town on the frontier of the State, at Coy- ote, be came up with him and shot him in cold Dblood, nfter be had thrown up his hands and asked for mercy. The little community was terribly excited dbout the murder, and started officers on_the track of Dablzreen, who threw them off the scent. No more was tieard of hit until last montb.when information was received that be was in Heuston, Tex., and there he was arrested. ——————— SUDDEN DEATH. Special Dispate to The Chicago Tribune.

The -wedding-festivities of Prince Willlam, grandson of the Emnperor, and Augusta. Victorln, eldest daughter of tho House of Schles- wig-Holstein, have just taken place. For sev- eral days overloaded trains from all quarters of Germany had been discharging sheir human freight into its Capital, while extfns conveyed hithor Royal and Princely persounges from all tho leading Houses of Europe. Almost every Buur of the day and night, during Thursday ang Friday, mombers of tho Roynl fumily,'city ofii- cluls, and guards of honor coutd bo scen at some one of the numerous statfons, waiting to receive © THE DISTINGUISHED GUESTS. Among the most illustrious of these wero the Prince of Walcs, Alexls of Russia, the Duke of Edinburg, Archdukes of Austrin, and Prin- ces of Swedenj; while the long list - of German Princes was hended by the King and Quecn of Saxony. The excite- ment around the depots kuew.no bounds asjit became kuown that another titled personuge was expected. A crowd, made up of cicizens, from the dignificd burgher down to the smock- frock Iuborer, with o plentifut sprinkling of urching, gathered in ajtwinkling, and were only kept i order by the vigorous excrtions of um,l mounted police. Inside, drawn up in lino} on the platform, were the zlittering guards who forwicd the escort to tho catriuges, which rapidly rolied the gucsts througliithe guping crowd to the vurious palaces assigned to theas. ¢ weeks the work of decorating the city has been i progress,~$0.00) murks, about 20,000, bavitz been appropristed for that purpose. Thishus béen almost entirely limited to tho magnificent stecer, * “ UNTER DEN LINDENX,” extending from the Brandenburg Gato to the bridge across the Spree. This renowned street Is very broud and beautiful, with its two rows of'lindens extendlig along the centre, and inclosing a graveled pathway ten or twelve feet broad, upon elther side of which Is the regular thoroughfare. As this tree-lined avenue, generully devoted to foot- travel. was to be onened for the cutrée of the Roynl bride, the decorations were chiefly ar- ranged along Its extent. Along either side, at loog intervals, were immense, tall, handsomely- carved and gilded columns, bearing upon thelr fronts ‘richly-puinted banuers; between these smaller ones, which served tosuspend, by means of gitt bells, heavy festoons of cvergreens, in- tertwined In a wost beautiful but indeseribable manuer. Flags, emblems of the various Ger- man States, the Prussian eagle, and the mono- gram of the Royalpair were disposed upon the poles m bewildering display. Here and there trimmnphal arches wero formed by heavy draper- fes of crimson and wold, which .spanucd the pathway from opposit poles. Every available space between public buildings was occtipied by STANDS ERECTED FOR SPECTATORS. Not such poorly-constructed stands ns so often codanger life at home, but solld and substan- tinl, as well as richly ornamented. All the seats on these tribunes were numbered, and’ were in such demand rhat the tickets sold from §L50 to §5. Add o this porgeousiy-decorated avenue, and the briliinntly-ornnmented “tribunes,” the festive display of bfinting. evergreens, and ar- morial beurings upon the buildings, where every owner vied with his neighbor in brilliancy of effect and beauty of design, and you m: have some faint idea of this * Kings' highway. But it will only be a faint fdea at best, for [ be- lieve ft impossible to paint in words the splendor of the scene. As you know, the Royal festivities wera to be- #in on Saturday with the entrance iuto the city, ncconding to Old-time custow, of the young bride-clect, from the Beliovue Palace, just out- side the city limits, whithor she had proceeded the afternoon previous, after her arrival in Ber- lin by special train, 'As thisentrée, together with the subsequent lllumination in the even- ing, was the great spectucle to be enjoyed Dy the publfc, great anxicty was felt about the weathor. Friday it was lowering and unfavor-, able. However, the true Prussian was not dis- heartened, and declared that the next day would ‘be o genuine Katser tog.” And, sure cuough, this duy, like all others recently set apart for royal festivities, was ushered in by THE BEAMS OF THE BRIGHT SUN. o'clock the street-cars were unable to complete their route; and yet, when we arrived at our tribiine, the muss of human bewmys was so densc that the pathway reservec Zor the procession was with ditlicalty kept clear. 'Tais, however, wns effectunlly maiutained by sturdy mewbers of societi ny of them veternns of the late war,—who stood guard in a solid line, upon cither side of tho strect, throughout its_entire oxtent. This throbbins, pulsating throng wus prodigious. and yet how quiet! The order main- tained was wonderful 1o our American eyes and cars: it secmed aslf the throng awalted n funeral rather than n_festive ‘procession. Not only were the streets and tribunes crowded to* ovértlowing, but every window, every balcony, cven the roofs .of the buildings, Opera-House and Palace included, were black with human forms, 5 . Our two hours and a half of waiting went by like mugic; ourinterest in the sights and sounds around us & PRECLUDED ALL THOUGHT OF FATIGUE. ‘The Crown-Princess and & few Ludies of Honor were the only nembers of the Royal household who were Lo outer with the bride; the Emperor, the Ewmpress, Crown-Prince, and Royal and Princely guests were to assomble at the oid City Palnce 1o uwait her comiug. This gave us, who were in the neighborhood of the Palace, much 1o occupy our attenton, and forutd onv of the pleasantest features of the day. Now tem or welve mugnificent baskets of flowers were seen carried toward the puluce W i carriage, glit= tering fn polished gold o conveying some nobie lndy to ndd her graces to the recoption.

At the head marches tbe Cuptain, 0 tall young man with nothinge steiking about his appearance cxcept that be carried his left bund in s side-pocket, the arm beingr unnaturally short and smull, huving boen paralyzed since infancy.

Allcyes wero now riveted on the GORGEOUS GILT CARRIAGE OF STATE, drawn by eight noble steeds, with hangings of red and gaid; preceded by ontriders, surrounded by dignitaries of Stato on borscback, and fol- Jowed by u company of the Gardes du Corps. Thiy earringe, which contained the bride. bor future mother-in-law, the Crown-Princess, and the chief ludy of tho Court of "the young Prin- cess, was tho Crown-carriage ‘of Frederick tho Great, buflt in 1740; is richly carved by biand, even the wheéls being ornamented by wreaths of lnurel. Upon the four corners, gold eagles with outspread wings; in the ccutre, a mass of knightly arms. The conchman’sbox is worth “the throne of a King, supported by two angels nnd the Prussian cagle, and draped with crim- son velvet with gold decorations. The inside is upholstered with white repped ik, embroidered witli the emblems of the Orderof the Black Engle,—tho inside of the roof belog also uphol- stered, with tho ever-present laurel-wreath em- broidered in old; the foot-rug of ermine. The conchinun, the postillions, the footmen, and the pages who. stood ~bebind the coach- man's box, were all ablaze jn gorgeous livery.

It is said that over 40,000 persons touk part in the procession. In pointof num- bers it was immense, but in other respects it greatly diappointed us.

The whole city was ablaze with light, the strects, during the whole evening, being light enough . for one to rvad a . newspaper. Tarough the whole length of **Unter den Linden ™ the gas- lawps had been deprived of their burners, and the gas ignited as it streamed forth from the pipe, iving the effect of jmmense torches, . All the stutues of the city were decorated iwith wrenths, engles, stars, cte. of gus-jets: ébut chiefly noticcable was *tho renowned statue of Frederick the Great, In front of the Emperor’s Palace. Around the small square:surrounding It were swang from poles graceful festoons of gus-jets depending from which were the brill- iantiy-painted congs-of-nrms of every German State.

Ever and anon our eyes were attracted by a briltlunt tower of red tire, that seemed to sboot up to the zeaith of the beavens. It was the tower, of the City- Hall, illuminated with a wnss of Greek fire, which threw out in. mugniiicent effect the various banners and tlags tlying from its turrets.

Not long since the firm met with some Josses, and they dissolved vartnership. Christopher (the brother) left this city and went to Marietta, 0., and ‘shortly after his arrival there became hopelesly insane, and almost uncontrollable by his friends. Yesterday there came to this: city and ap- peared at the trial in the Probate Court a triend of Christopher Boeshaar who had been sent to this city to induce Frederick to accompany him to Marietta, where his presence would save his brother Chrisopher {rom the asylum. -The surprisa of the gen- tlemen who appeared at the trial can-better be imagined than described when he nnds the man he was searching for hopelesly in- sane, and in the same eonditionas the brother who is at Marietta, The Judge ordered Frederick’s immediate removal, and he was to-day escorted to the asylum at Columbus. ————— INTERESTING TO MANUFACTURERS, C.
