The Howard County Record of yesterday ur erty (Ellicott Oity) on Thursday night last was visited with another destruc- tive freshet.

Waters’ Camp GRounp, August 16.—This camp closed its mteresting and successful la- bors this morning at 10 o'clock. Although the rain prevented hundreds and thousands from attending, as we hoped und expecied, we had no occasion to complain, taking all into con- sideration. Crowds visited the ground daily until yesterday, when there were yery few. Yesterday was intended for the administration of sacrament to the colored pereons present, and a special meeting for them during the night, but the weather prevented all such ar- Tangements. The attendance of the colored eopie was comparatively small atthe camp in consequence of there not being any pro- vision made for them whatever. There were an unusual number of ministers present dur- ing this whole camp, from far and near.

AN UNKNOWN MAN THROWS HIMSELF SESORE A SWIFTLY MOVING TRAIN ANDIS CUT 4O PIECES. As the shore line train from Boston reached Horton’s Grove. near this city, Tuesday noon. ateighteen minutes past twelve o'clock, the engineer, on coming round a curve, saw aman walking by the side ofthe track come fifteen Jeet of, who turned and looked ai the train, then started from it for an instant, ihen turned again and threw himself flat upon his face di- rectly in froptof the locomotive. which was directly upon bim. The entire train, then moving with a velocity ofa milea minute, paseed over his body, crushing all semblance of humanity ont ofit, and leaving the fragments strewn along the track for a considerable dis- tance. The mutilation was horrible. The breast was almost the only partot the body found entire. The bead wascutoffand thrown quite adistance. The shoniders, legs, arms and abdomen were literally cut to pieces, the top ofthe ekull crushed in and the fingers strewn along by the road side. His clothing and boots—which lasiseemed to have been a good pair—werecut to shreds. Thesole of one ofthe boots was found in the ash-pan of. the engipe. The fentures were not badly matilat- ed. From what could be gathered of the tat- ters of bis clothing, it appeared that he had worn a Kossuth hat, a light mouse-colored woolen coat checked, snuff-colored checked pants. and checked shirt, in his pockets were found nothing but two coppers, @ key and a comb, Judging from appearanc ihe man must have occupied a respectable position in life, and been something more than inirty years ofage. Immediately after the affair, the train having been stopped,a brakeman was leftto flag other tra'he,and a band carsentback to collect the remains,which were brought down in a box to Corliss & Nightn, station, where an in- queat was heid by Coroner Tucker of North Providence.

The official announcement in Moni‘eur to the effect that Napoleon is very peaceable, is re- garded with much distrust.

Unfortunately the art of creating confidence is not among the secrets of person- al Government.

DRAINAGE.—There are but few local where drainage would not be beneficial. Even in soils with an open subsoil, where dee! drainage certainly is not required, some shai- low drains may be useful to carry off or to husband surplus water. Many a farm honse is so located that a good deal of drainage is required to secure perfect health Except ia cases of diseased lungs, a dry atmosphere is more healthful than one loaded with moistare, and the sir that passes over stagnant moisture ‘will not long remain pureand healthy. So that in a sanitary point of view drainage often be- comes of vast importance. The Metropolitan Saaitary Commission of London states some interesting facts about Grainsge. Forevery inch of water drained off, and which would otherwise pass into the air as vapor, they say as much heat is saved per acre as would raice eleven thousand cubic feet of air one degree in temperature. A recent Parliamentary report on the subject ays, a farmer was asked the effect of some new drain- ing, when he replied, All that I know is that before it was done I could never get ont at night without anovercoat bat now I never atone on to me.” A dostor took one of the Sanitary Commissioners to a hill overlooking his district, “There,” said he, «wherever you see those patches of white mist, 1 bave fre- quent illness, and if there isa cesspool or other nuriance as well, I cat reckon ontyphusevery now and then. Outside of these mists I am rarely wanted.” 1t may not be generally known that damp- ness in theatmosphere give double energy to bad odors of any kind. If everybody could live ona hill side, with @ good gravel sabsoil, we should find the average health of the com murity vastly improved. Much may be done by thorough drainage but only te improve tne sanitary condition of the locality, but to warm up and improve the the soil. Try it.
