DISASTROUS FLOODS IN THE OHIO VALLEY.

Houses Washed Away.—Many People Drowned.—Great Suffering.

Ci.s-cisnati, February 12.—Tlie situation to-dsy has been very gloomy. The river rose i-.lmost constantly at the rate of from half an inch to an inch an hour, and from two to three feet above the highest stage of last year. This is a fact of great signifi cance, because of the vastly-increased ter ritory flooded, and because of the greatly increased danger to buildings. One two storey brick business house fell with a great crash, owing to the weakened foundations. The building was weighted with a quantity of hemp, which aided in causing the de struction. This is only the beginning. There is much apprehension on this account in Covington and Newport, where the nature of the soil makes the danger greater. As the water creeps upon the houses, it has been found necessary to remove many families to other places. The Relief Com mittee in charge of this work had to act arbitrarily in some cases, and to compel people to leave their houses. In two or threo cases the houses are now off their foundations or washed away, and there un doubtedly would have been loss of life if the people had been left to act in their own be half. To-night a high wind is blowing, and there is great danger that the agitation of tho water will loosen houses from their foundations. Several more houses at New port have left their foundations, and some have tumbled over. News from more ex posed places, like New Richmond, 0., and Lawreneeburg, Ind.. is waited with dread. Reports received to-night from Newport on these points are reassuring. The Arkansas Rising. Foj.t Smith, February 12.—Heavy rains have swollen the streams. The_ Arkansas has risen 11 feet, and is rising nine inches an hour. It is three feet above the danger line and higher than in 1844. Little Rock, February 12.—The rise of the Arkansas at this point was five feet for the 24 hours ending at 1 o'clock this after noon, nnd it has been rising since at the rate of two inches an hour. The back wator has formed an extensive lake in the rear of the town. There has been no damage on the Littlo Rock side, though the water is now higher than for many years. A landslide on tho Little Rock and Fort Smith railroad this afternoon hurled im mense quantities of rock, earth and trees into the river. It will be several days before trains resume running. Several hundred men aro working to replace the bridgo near Ozark. Flooded Towns. Pomkrov (0.), February 12.—The Hart ford City Coal and Salt Company estimate their damages at IOO.OOOdoIs. The Sjra oitso Coal and Salt Company have suffered nearly as badly. At fiacine, nine miles abovo here, 105 houses ore moved from their foundations, and a number have floated away. A similar condition of affairs exists all along tho rivor between here and I'arkorsburg. Middleport, 25 miles below Pomeroy, is under water. Many merchants, not anticipating such an unprecedented rise, left their goods in their stores, and . awoke on Saturday morning to find them under water. Thero Is at 10 p.m. about 12 feet of water on Front-street, the main business street of tho town. Thirteen Persons Drowned. • Tho "Tribune's" Evansville (Ind.) upeeial of the 12th says : During the rain storm which swept over the city this after noon about 4 o'clock, lasting an hour, thirteen persons were drowned. They were occupants of three skiff., which were approaching tho city from the Kentucky side. At this writing it is impossible to learn the names of the lost. One of the boats contained seven, and the other three men. There aro fears of further loss of life, as just before tho showers began two email boats left Evansvillo for tho inundated dis trict, one containing a party of hunters in I search of water-fowl, whilo the other had been despatched to tho farm of Colonel I'osey, which lies 15 or 20 feet under water. The latter party consisted of Posey's son William and two coloured boys. Nothing has been heard of either boat. National Relief Measures. Washington, February 12.—The Secre tary of War is taking active measures looking to tho immediate rellof of sufferers by the overflow of the Ohio and its tribu tarie*, in accordance with the Act appro priating S_.no.ooo for that purpose. Orders were issued to-day for General Amos Beck with, Assistant Commissary-General, stationed.at St. Louis, to proceed to Cin cinnati, where he will have general charge of the distribution of supplies. Ho will establish his head-quarters at Cincinnati, and act directly under orders from the Sect-etary of War. Orders have also betn issued for the purchase of supplies and the charter of a sufficient number of boats to distribute them where most needed. Firing on Relief Steamers. Cincinnati, February 13—1.30 p.m.—At 1 p.m. tho river reached 69 feet 10J inches, the rise varying during the forenoon from one-quarter to one-half inch. At this hour a misty rain is falling, with the wind from tho northwest, The Signal Service flag de noting coming cold weather floats to-day for the third timo since the flood began. Hitherto its presence was welcomed—now it brings the worst apprehensions. Cold weather now could have no substantial effect on tho water disaster—that has about done its worst. But with cold weather, the suffering, imprisoned people in all tlie towns nnd cities along tno Ohio would suffer torribly for lack of fuel. Fow realise tho difficulty of getting supplies delivered. Thero are no landings for tho steamer.., and tho damage dono to buildings by waves caused by passing steamers has been so great as to cause tlio occupants of flooded houses to fire on the steamers bringing them relief. Relief steamers, to be of real ser vice, havo to bo equipped with life-saving crews and boats. It can readily be seen \ how slow would be the work of carrying any considerablo amount of fuel to such places as Lawronceburg, Ind., and Now Richmond, Ind., that are entirely sub merged and surrounded with water. A special has been received from Ports mouth, 0., dated yesterday, and forwarded from Scoville, the nearest telegraph station, saying that not an aero of dry ground is in the city, and nearly 100 houses are under water.

ALARM IN AUSTRIA.

A Belgn of Terror in Vienna.—Pre-

cautionary Measures.

Ni.w York, February 5.—A "Herald's" Vienna special says: Vienna has never passod through such a crisis of anxiety and alarm. The Government is in possession of what it believes to be most trust worthy evidence of a plot to assas sinate tho Emperor. The dynamite cartridges found in the opera house aro exactly similar to those found near tho body of Detective Bloch. Among tho list of persons prescribed or sentenced to death by the anarchists are the Emperor and Empress Crown Prince Rudolph, Crown Prince Stophani, Baron Roths child, all tho editors of tho " Neve Frio Prosso" and " Wiener Taggblatt," the Perfect of Police Katicka, Com missary af Polico Frankel and Ministers, bankers, and deputies, many of whom belong to tho Liberal party, and many merchants. The police, on their hand, have put on thoir black list many names of Liberals who aro in no way connected with Socialism, and oven many who are also on the proscribed list of anarchists. During the last fow days, 2-10,000 florins havo boon stolen from tho Post offico of Pesth, and 18,000 florins in Vienna. Private letters are now opened by tho polico at tho Post-offico, and a constant search for dynamite cartridges is being made. Tho Emperor's palace and all public out buildings aro guarded, and news papers ate not allowed to publish anything about the anarchists unless it has beon pre viously submitted to the polico. Vihnna, Fobruary s.—The assassin of De tective Bloch is identified as a man nam*:d Stallmachel, formoily a corporal in the Saxon Grenadiers. Three battalions of infantry, and two batteries of artil lery are l_ept in readiness night and day for prompt action in oaso of a disturbance.

MINING NEWS.

Thames, this day. Dart.—The stopes westward of tho winze at No. 3 lcvol produced lOlbs pickod stono yesterday morning. Tlio loader in the western drive is now clear of tho slide and iv good sandstone country, and is G inches in thickness, aud pro mising. The managor considers it probablo that the clay body just passed through is identical with tho slide met with in tho upper levels. Camdria.—The remainder of the reef in the winze has been broken down, but nothing moro important than colours of gold havo been found, though the lode has opened out to a width of two feet.

New Prince Imperial.— Tho ventilation throughout the mine has improved considerably, and the men are now able to work in tlie eastern stopes, No. 5 level.

New Manukau.—Tho return to hand this morning is 45ozs. 13d wts. gold from 30 loads quartz and appurtenant specimens.

WESLEYAN MISSIONS IN THE SOUTH SEA ISLANDS.

Pursuant to advertisement, the Rev. Dr. Kelynack appeared aa lecturer on the n'.ove topic on Monday evening in the l'itt-atrcet Church. There was an excellent and appreci ative audience, and the chair was occupied by Mr J. L. Wilson. The Chairman introduced the lecturer, referring to the theme of th a evening, which was one of the grandest that could occupy human minds. Tho Doctor appeared amidst enthusiastic applause. He had come among them to advocate the claims of the mission work m tho South Seas. JJe hoped that he would not be thought insensible to the great worn done by other Churches in tho South Seas, but he had come to deal with Methodist work, and must limit himself to that portion. Christian Missions was sufficiently weighty and grand to command the attention of tlie age. The grandeur of its conception, the tenderness of its spirit, and its magnificent results, should kindle the gratitude of every devout mind. Whatever reproach may be said to bo thrown at it, yet its glorious work had dispelled the mists and gloom of thousands, and brought daylight to the darkened and benighted world of heathendom The tenderness of the cause had given breadth to narrow natures and woi th to cold ones, and under its spell eloquence had poured forth its burning words and stirred the noblest impulses of thousands, and that day they owed all that was best and highest in human thought, and divinest in human work, to miasionery enter prise. Of all the fields that have been opened up to missionery agencies, none presented an aspect more dark and foul than that of these islands of the Southern Seas. They were in truth, spots where everything that is iie'ree sensual, and devilish reigned with undisputed, swaj; amidst the loveliest scenery. He would require to throw into the picture deeper shadows than over Kembrandt cast off to describe with anything like fidelity and truth the scenes of horror that were almost daily enacted there. His Btory was one of cruelty and death, and cannibalism. The work to be oone was great; but he confessed for ono he was proud of the spirit of fortitude and indomitable zeal that had pioneered the work of the Christian Church in the Pacific. He believed that the history would never be written which would give a faithful portrayal of what had been nobly attempted and triumphantly achieved there. The mission aries were placed under a discipline of the most searching kind; they were made of the stuff out of which God fashioned his nobility. Tho names of Carey, Morrison Mill, Moffat, and Livingstone, were mentioned' and references made to their great work. Bravery in the battle was admired; so also were admired tho labo-jra of the scientific explorer in tlie polar regions or in tho tropics; or the work of the medical man in tho region of pestilence but he claimed that a higher regard was due to the noble men, and let him add, tho yet nobler women, who went out into those haunts of moral leprosy, to labour, to weep and to wait, and to give the very blood of their heart and their brain, to lift the fallen ones—first into tho purer light of God on earth, and then to the lightr-the eternal light-o£ God for ever more. The statistics of the Wesleyan mission in the SoUth Seas wero stated as follows:—Prinolpal Btations, 17; churches, 912; other preaching places, 187; missionaries, 20; native ministers and assistant missionaries, 55; catechists, 54; heads-teachers, 1,136; day school teachers, 2,127; Sabbath school teachers, 2,323; local preachers, 1,839; class readers, 3,4/4; full and ac credited church members, 26,322; on trial for membership, 4,920; Sabbath schools, 1,457; Sabbath scholars, 12,000; day schools, 1,805: day scholars, 42,000; attendants en publio worship, 111,005. He had no di.ubt they were inipresecd with the marrr*!. .!•'•! of these facts, and from them they mi^ni judge that tho groat mission committed to their hands was one which taxed to tho uttermost their liberality of gift. The lecturer spoke of the excellent work being done in Victoria among tho Chinese by a missionary from their'own ranks, and extension of that work, and the excellent results accruing. If we had space columns might have been reported of this eloquent lecture, which has had few equals ever delivered in the colony. At the close the Doctor related some' amusing anecdotes of some places he had visited, and the gifts he had received for tho cause. At the close a collection was taken up, which amounted to £2tM, and previous donations and collections amounted to £CO, which brings tho proceeds up to £310. A vote of thanks was passed to the lecturer and the chair, and the meeting closed,

FARMERS' CO-OPERATIVE ASSOCIATION.

Successful Meeting of Waikato Farmer*

[by telegraph.— own correspondent.] v

Hamilton, this day. - A meeting of those interested in tlio establish-

ment of a Farmers' Co-operative Association

for this portion of the colony was held hero last

night. There were about 70 present, includ-

ing the principal farmers from the. various out-

lying districts, and the chair was occupiod

by the Mayor of Hamilton. The Secretory

submitted a report, which stated that in can vassing the district the belief had been universally expressed that the Association if started on a proper basis, was calculated to greatly ameliorate tho present unsatisfactory condition of the farming and pastoral industries. Ho believed 5,0 0 Bhares could be floated in the M various districts, made up as follows, approxkji matoly:—Te Awamutu District, 1,500; Tama*Sll here, 1,500; Piako, 600; Wuipa (from Alexandra '* to Ngaruawahia), 500: Ho mil ton District, 400;" sundry outlying districts, 500. Total, 5,000. The fanning population of Waipa and Wai kato beingabont 1,0 0, tlits would allow on an 1 avorago 5 Bhares or an expenditure of *4 to I each, with an interval of 20months between the lirst and final payments. The report' then set forth the advantages which the farmers would derive from the Association, both in minor as well as In general business matters. The ap proximate value of crops grown in the districts for the season 1b estimated to be as follows I — Wheat, £32,000; oats, £10,000; barley, i £1,000; potatoes, £.'0,000; cheese in factories, £5,500: total, £63,500. Mr XV. A. Graham then proposed "That a Fanners' Co-operotive Asso- > ciation bo formed in accordance with- the . memorandum of Association." This was seconded by Mr Brooks, and after discussion (the various speakers supporting proposition) was carried. It was also agreed that the name of tho Society shoulp bo "Tho North' Now Zealand Farmers' Co-oporativo Association.' 1 Provisional directors having been appointed, tho meoting terminated.

St Jacob's Oil Invincible.

~__ (To the Editor of Evening Stab.) ".'*! I Dear Sir,—l wish to add my testimony to the efficacy of the great German remedy, St, Jacob's OIL Your oolumns have contained, from tlma to time, expressions of gratitude from persons o! known respootability, and having satisfied my* self at the genuineness of the cures effootod, I obtained a bottle, scarcely hoping it would sno coed In relieving me. For tho past serea months I have suffered severely from a pain ful attack of sciatica, which, in spite of the most able treatment on the part of my meal, oal adviser, continued to hold Ita own in toy system. My sleep at last began to be nffooted, and my wholo system very much reduced, Tha most careful treatment failed to give me relief,' and I then applied nearly every advertised' remedy. Thoseiatifta was principally located in my loft thigh, and tho pain at times was most excruciating. In spite of tha most thorough applications, and the great est caro and attontion on my part, _ ob tained no appreciable relief, and at last, as a forlorn hopo, I determined to apply St. Jacobs Oil, and from that time the pain began to. diminish. My Bleep soon returned, and each application afforded me relief. At first I re garded the oossatlon from pain as only a temporary one, scarcely daring to hope that the euro was complete; Cut I havo gratefully to acknowledge that I am now free from pain—in fact, a man again. I must confess that I tried the Oil in absol luto despair. I had had no sleep for three or four nights oroviously, and my system was very low. The success, however, is complete, and I again tender my grateful acknowledgments to the propriotorsof the Oil.and Bhall evercontlnua to rocommend it to every sufferer who oomoa within range of my influence.
