TKKHIHLK IIAII. STORM.
F Hills 111 IM II Mi. THIIY.
Titov, Ala., June 20, lsT.'i.
Editors Times:—One of the sever
est Imit storms ever known in this
section, passed over a portion of this
county on yesterday afternoon about
•i o'clock, commencing at, or near,
Mossy Grove Church, about three or
four miles southeast of this city, and
for a distance of some live miles in
length, as far as heard from, and
some two miles in breadth, the crops
are entirely ruined.' A gentleman of
this city, who bus a plantation in the
devastated district, informs me that
he will not make a pock of corn on
an area, whereon he has formerly
made 600 to 1,000 bushels. The cot
ton, too, is literally beaten to pieces.
Nothing is left except the stubble,
and that, in many instances, not
more than two or three inches in
height.
Persons who were in the fields
plowing state that it was an impos
sibility to even stand up much less
to face the fury of the storm ; and
their many bruises testify to the cor
rectness of their statement.
Mr. Henry Starling, an old gentle
man, was bruised to a considerable
extent about the head and face, and
putting his hands over his face as a
protection against the hail stones,
they were beaten black, so great was
the force of the storm. Many of the
stones were as large as lien’s eggs,
and we are informed, with ever rea
son to believe it, that they lay from
six to eight inches deep all over the
ground, and in many places deeper.
We heard a report, but do not, vouch
for it, that in one place they were
over knee deep to a horse. Mr. But
ler Turner had his house blown down
and everything in the way of house
hold articles scattered in every di
rection, saving nothing except one
saucer. With this exception no dam
age was done by the wind, so far as
heard from, save the blowing down
of a few dut-houses.
The following is a list of the suf
ferers. so far as heard from : Abner
Carnpljoll, Byrd Join s, ,T. 8. Carroll,
Jacob Carroll,,Sam Andrews, Butler
Turner, Phil lingers, Check Wilson,
Henry Bundy, Mrs. Catharine Carr,
A. Starling, W. Starling, It. Starling,
Mike Jones, Mack Whaty, A. Bed
dock, Ira Iteddoek, John Iteddock,
D. E. Weils, W. T. Weils, M. T.
Mates, and Mrs. Rogers.
This is a great calamity on many
of these persons, as they arc for the
most part small farmers, and have
nothing on which to make another
start. Some of them have been run
ning on mortgages, and this will ut
terly ruin them, wo fear. Most of
the places damaged are in the track
of the hurricane of 1870, and owners
had scarcely recovered from the dam
age done at that time.
We have been blest with a general
rain throughout the county, as far us
heard from, which was much needed.
Several heavy showers during yester
day, last, night and to-day, and at
this writing we are having a good
season. Typo.

revolutionary war, when they bore
j their part manfully in tho struggle
for independence. It was for the
perpetuation of the same principles

j t lie States:
Boston, June 10. John Adams once

that sanguine old gentleman never
thought that the 17th would com

! the celebration opened with religious
j service, according to the custom that

through the night. At dawn a shot

them that they were at last seen and
that, their plans were known, and a

brave soldier who ventured outside
I the works. A subaltern carried the
news to Col. Prescott and asked what
should be done. “Bury him.” was
the laconic reply. “What!” cried
the astonished ofllcer, “without pray -

On Monday the city became gay
with bunting, and yesterday the mili

was welcomed by the Fifth Massa

their tents on the hill. They were
warmly welcomed along the mute

hospitalities and their brol herly feel

reception this morning was of the
Old Guard of New York, under Maj.

ganizations arrived at the same time
and received the most formal wel

of tho little baud of fifty men from
the Palmetto State, ns of New York's
more imposing force. They were es
corted bv the Boston Infantry in a
long procession to Columbus square,
where Joint Quincy and John Quincy
Adams addressed them. Mr. Quincy
said :
"l'fty years ago I stood beside the
great Massachusetts statesman when
he spoke from Bunker Hill. Would

THE ELAO OF EtITAW HI'KINOS.
The Charleston company have with
theiTi a flag which is a most interest
ing relie of the Revolution. This relic
is called the flag of Eutaw, and was
presented in 1827 by tho widow of the
Heroic Col. Win. Washington of the
Revolutionary army, who, wishing to
assign the battle llag of her hus
band's famous cavalry troop to one
of the military companies of Charles
ton, selected the Washington Light
infantry. This Mag was borne by
Col. Washington's command through
the thickest or the battles of Eutaw
Springs and the Cowpens of Mouth
Carolina. Now nearly a century old,
it is believed to be the only one of
Revolutionary date in possession of a
military company, it is a small
square piece of crimson damask
satin, with a laurel but woven in the
centre, and is worn and faded, but is
dearly cherished by these soldiers.
The venerable lady made a formal
presentation of this banner to the
company from the steps of her
ancient mansion on Mouth Bay street, i
Charleston, and the incident was a
notable one at the time.
The Second Regiment of the Penn-!
sylvania National Guard, numbering j
487 men, arrived at the Providence
depot at 1 p. M. to-day, and were es
corted by a squad of police to the hall ;
of the Christian Association in Eliot:
street. The Norfolk fVaJ Eight Ar
tillery Blues arrived at their wharf i
three hours before they were expect
ed, and were greeted only by a salute
from the steamers in port and by the i
cheers of an unorganized crowd.
Two hours later the Cambridge City
Guard gave them a formal reception,
and marched them up to lie reviewed
by Gov. Gaston on the Common.
The Portland Cadets, the crock corps
or Maine, fifty men strong and won
derfully well drilled, arrived still
later, escorting Gov. Dingley und his
staff. After waiting in the depot
some time to be received, they
marched to their quarters in Roches
ter Hall. The Hillyer Guards of
Hartford came just at dusk, and the
Richmond Commandery of Knights
Templar, witli several other civic
bodies, quietly entered the city dur
ing the day. The militia soldiery, in

ence of a rough and tumble bivou

HONORS TO Till. FIFTH MARYLAND.
At 5 p. m. the petted Baltimoreans
■ were again oa the streets, marching
, amid t he cheers of hoarse Bostonians
to the State House, where Gov. Gas-
I ton and his staff reviewed them,
j With the Governor was the entire
i Council, Vice-President Wilson, and
: Gen. Banks, who had been chosen to
j present to the Marylanders a magnili
j cent banner in behalf of the members
• of the Grand Army of the Republic,
j Other organizations were also out.
j The music was spirited, and the
! scene exciting. They marched past
the State House, down Beacon Hill
to the parade ground of the Common.
There a multitude was collected to
give another cheer to t lie gray-coated
boys of Baltimore. From the edge of
the parade ground the people were
packed in line after line so far back
that tin' glassy waters of the frog
pond reflected the images of thou
sands who could not press nearer to
the front. There was a full dress pa-
I rade, well executed, and then Gen.
I Banks stepped forward, ami in a fer
vent speech delivered to the South
erners from the Boys in Blue a splen
did stand of United States colors.
His speech was a good one, albeit
somewhat intoned with the excessive
sentimentality which Massachusetts
has chosen to wear, and the great
crowd was visibly impressed; but
they aroused themselves again to
cheer as the Marylanders marched
up the hill again, with the sun just
tipping t heir bayonets, and -the new
colors st reaming down over t heir gray
backs.
At the time of the Concord centen
nial a llag was sent from Boston to
Charleston by the hands of Governor
Chamberlain, and to-day there is ex
hibited a large carved and gilded bus
relief of the crest of Massachuset ts,
mounted upon black velvet, and rich
ly framed, which is to he presented
to the Washington Light infantry,
now here from Charleston.
THE DECORATION.
The various receptions, and the
movements of troops from barracks
to hotels have kept the st reets full of
military, and the air full of music,
riie crowd in the streets seems t<>
have been as large as they 7 could
hold, and the public buildings have
been brilliant with colors. Tin* Slate
House with its great gilded dome a
bit of extravagance to which all now
seem to bo reconciled, though it oc
casioned many hard words is draped
with the Hags of all nations, but con
spicuous among the many colors,
festoons of red, white and blue sur
round tin' coats of arms of all the
States of the Union. The central
ornament is a colossal ligure of the
maid America, over which a canopy
of Hags is raised. The State House
fronts upon one end of the Common,
ami that beautiful park is gay with
over four thousand pieces of color
hung in long festoons across the
natural arches which the great elms
make over its paths. The City Hall
is decorated allileratively with the
words “Putnam, Prescott, Peace,”
and pictorial I y with large representa
tions af these t hree wort hies. Peace
being represented by a young girl
about fourteen feet high, with thun
derbolts in her left hand. To relieve
the great stretches of canvas are
numerous banners and strips of
bunting, and by night the picture of
the day is partly repeated in jets of
gas.
HISTOKIC BUILDINGS.
The march of a hundred years has
torn down most of the old buildings
whose contemporaries added so much
of interest and vivid localizing to the
celebrations of Ooneord and Lexing
ton. F’aueuil Hall still stands to-day
gaily dressed with a banner on tho
outside bearing the words: “Teach
us tho love of liberty protected by
law,” and inside the pictures of Han
cock, Adams, Washington, Everett,
Gov. Andrew, and Charles Sumner.
There is, too, a picture of old Peter
F’aneuii, who gave the big hall to the
city of Boston years Before the Revo
lution was dreamed of, and when
Prescott and Putnam were boys.
The Old South Church, in ruins
within and shabby without, is cer
tainly celebrating the last centennial
she will ever see. Mho seems to know
it , for she directs the attention ol' all
to the inscription, “Erected in 1729;
desecrated by the British troops in
1776.” That was all the association'
she had with tho battle of Bunker
I [ill. but she is to tie honored to
morrow by a visit, from the great pro
cession, and she lias done her utmost
to look well.
The Old North Church is still
staunch, and though far from the
line of to-morrow’s march, is elabo
rately decked. Eew visitors leave
t he city without going to see the old
building, for tho story of Paul
Revere s ride has bound tiro tail stee
ple close to the earliest struggles of
the revolution. On tho face of the
tower is hung a graphic, well-drawn
picture or tlie old sexton hanging the
two lights in tho north window, sig
nalling to Paul Revere that tho Brit
ish army had gone by sea toward
Lexington. On the right of this pic
ture is one of Paul Revere standing
m the moonlight resting his chin
upon his horse’s saddle and watching
for the sexton’s signal. Another pic
ture represents him dashing along a
country road rousing the farmers as
in: rides.
All over tlie city the stores and
dwellings are elaborately decked, and
in front of many of them relics of
1775 arc conspicuously exhibited.
Some bones, an aged piece of furni
ture, an old picture, a newspifper of
those times, ami ill one ease the thigh
bone of a British soldier.
CHARLESTOWN AND BUNKER HILL.
All tlie strangers in the city to-day
have been to Charlestown, and most
of them have climbed the 291 winding
steps leading to the summit of Bun
ker Hill Monument. To-morrow the
monument is to be closed, and so the
pilgrimage to it lias been made to
day, A great curious throrfg have
filled the winding staircases, and ev
ery pilgrim has counted the steps in
coining down, if he did not in going
up. To-morrow Mags will fly from
the summit, arid at night calcium
lights will burn in the four windows.
Near the foot of the monument is
planted a flag over the stone, which
marks Hie spot where Warren fell,
and rlsewhercwn the city Warren is
made the hero of tho day. His name
is the most prominent.or thoscon the
great arch spanning the Charles river
bridge, and his picture or his dying
words are filing on many a house
front. Charlestown was destroyed
in the battle, and no historic build
ings remain. It is shabby now, and
a repetition of the coullagrution could
be easily endured to mark the day.
The city is now a district of Boston,
and much to the chagrin of the in
habitants, they find that their glory
and identity arc being absorbed by
I the big mother city. An annexation
scheme would not poll Hfry votes
over there to-day. Boston is to have
t he groat procession, and Ims taken
the best part of the day for it. and
Charlestown has got to got up at live
o’clock to laugh at the procession of
antiques and horribles, who are com
pelled to narade at t Imt early hour.
The pavilion, though, is in Charles
town, and there the oration of the
day will 1m delivered by Judge Doy
ens, but the dinner is to be on Boston
Common. Tin* place is more elabo
rately decorated than Boston is, and
some of the devices are very hand
some. On the opposite uprights of i
the great arch on the bridge are con
trasting pictures of Bunker Hill on
June 17, 1775, and June 17, 1875 the*
one a see no of battle and the other
the sketch of the plain monument.
THi: MASONIC ELEMENT.
This evening a large body of
Knights Templar paraded and drew
much attention, and the Masonic
bodies will to-morrow take an im
portant place in the procession, as
they always have in all of Bunker
Hill’s coremofties. The Salem Com
muudery lirst. dedicated the battle
Held in 175., by erecting a monument
upon it to Warren, and in 1825 for
mally gave the land to the Bunker
Hill Association on the condition
that anew monument should be
erected, and that a model of the old
one, built by the Masons, should be
deposited iii its wall. At the laying
of t he corner stone and the timil ’ded
ication of the monument the services
were conducted by the M sons.
This is the lirst time that the mili
tary have been the leaders.
To-night Mayor Cobb held a grand
levee in Music Hall, under the
shadow of the big organ. The hall
is the largest in Boston, and was
closely packed in the two balconies
as well as in tlm main body with a
brilliant assembly. Many ladies
wore present. and most of the mili
tary com panics attended in full force.
The decoration consisted ot what
seemed to be thousands of yards of
bunting, festooned and hung in all
the different designs in which it is
possible to arrange ii. From the
ceiling hung great balls of flowers.
Wreaths of smilax were caught at
either end by the little turrets of the
organ, and the large stage was encir
cled by a bed of flowers, in which
mottoes and names were interwoven.
From this bank beautiful plants
sprung up, and over the steps lead
ing to the stage a floral arch of ex
quisite tlnish was erected. After
Mayor Cobh had delivered his speech,
formally receiving the thousands of
guests to the hospitalities of the eit),
Gov. (last on in a few words welcomed
them all to the State. The oilier
speakers were Vice President Wil
son, Col. A. O. Andrews, of South
Carolina, Gen. Fitzlmgh Lee, of Vir
ginia, and Gen. Kilpatrick. While
Gen. Kilpatrick was speaking, and
at nearly ten o’clock, Gen. Sherman
entered the hall, lie was at .once
recognized, and cheer after cheer
went up, which drowned Gen. Kil
patrick's voico and drove him to Ids
scat. As the cheers subsided the
speaker renewed, hut as soon as he
closed loud calls were made for Sher
man, who came forward reluctantly
and spoke briefly, lie said :
<. I'.N. SUKUMAN’k HPKF.t'II.
i came hero, inv friends, to attend
the levee of tho Mayor of Boston, and
without a thought of making a
speech; and standing as i do amid so
many of Boston’s men, any one of
whom can make a better speech than
f. I liud it difficult to overcome my
reluctance. I want to hear Judge
Devons speak to-morrow, and 1 want
to walk over tho ground where Bun
ker Hill was, for they tell me that it
is not what it was, and that tho exi
gencies of building have shorn it of
its crest; but the hill lived long
enough to give its name to a day that,
will never die, a day of great deeds
and of noble thoughts. Tho deeds
done, the heroism shown, and the
blood shed, marked I he bil l li of a na
tion a nation still in its infancy
though wo who have come together
to celebrate its first, centennial liavo
come from its boundaries thousands
of miles away. Think of tlie men
who died that day, cherish I heir
memories, lin'd follow their impulses,
and we will lie still stronger, more
united, and peaceful when the next
centennial comes. 1 thank you.
Encouraged by tho reception ex

speech, which null he diffidently and
with expressions of surprise imme
diately obeyed, with liis hat in one
hand and liis eye-glasses in the other.
Bonfires are blazing in all the su
burbs. The Chelsea Aldermen ap
priuted .-lull to pay tho expenses of a

Common Council refused to concur.
Yesterday Isaac Htebbins, one of t.ho

ikcaeli.** Npcrrli and the .Scandal.
Brooklyn, June 21. The great
scandal case continues to attract
great crowds. Ladies are now freely
admitted and occupy the best seats,
often encroaching in chairs of the
counsel. Beach resumed his address
to-day by continuing his defense of
Moulton. He was Beecher’s friend
until the latter demanded that he re
turn letters. Never until falsely ac
cused of blackmail did ho speak.
The story should never have boon
made|public. The offense was not one
against criminal law, Imt against
written social law and should never
have been exposed to vulgar eyes.
He then read from Tracy’s opening
speech, in which he declared Moulton
a heathen and a disbeliever. The
charge was unfounded, and was only
prompted by malice. He then warm
ly attacked Tracy for Ids assault on
Moulton’s character. He (Tracy) had
also unfairly attacked Mrs. Moulton,
charging her wit h associating with
prostitutes. N<> gentleman would
dare make such charges. A counsel
thus swayed is governed by loose
principles generally.

THE SUN.
DAILY AND WEEKLY FOR 1875,
Tlie approach of tho Presidential election gives
uiiiimiiul importance to the ovent ami develop
mentH of 1875. We shall endeavor to describe
them fully, faithfully and fearlessly.
THE WEEKLY HUN Luh now attained a cimila
tiiui of over eighty thousand copies. Its readers
are found in every State and Territory, and its
quality is well known to the public. Wo shall
not only endeavor to keep it fully up to tho old
standard, but to Improve and add to its variety
and power.
THE WEEKLY SUN will continue to be a thor
ough newspaper. All the news of tho day will be
found in it, condensed when unimportant, at
full length when of moment, and always, we
trust, treated inuclear, interesting und instruct
ive manner.
It is our uiui to make the Weekly Hun the best
family newspaper in the world. It will bo full ol
entertaining and appropriate reading of every
Hurt, but will print nothing to offend the most
scrupulous and delicate taste. It will always
contain tho most interesting stories and ro
mane< h of tlioday, carefully selected and legibly
printed.
Tho Agricultural Department is a prominent
feature in the Weekly Hun, and its articles Will
always be found fresh and useful to tho farmer.
Tho number of men independent in politics is
increasing, and tho Weekly Run is their papar
especially. It belongs to no party, and obeys no
dictation, contending for principle, and lor the
election of the best men. It exposes tho corrup
tion that disgraces tho country and threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
fear of knaves, and seeks no favors from their
supporters.
Tho markets of every kind and the fashions
are regularly reported.
The price of tho WEEKLY SUN is one dollar a
year for a shoot of eight pages, and fifty-six col
umns. As this barely pays tho expenses of paper
and printing, we are not able to make any dis
count or allow any premium to friends who may
make special efforts to extend its circulation.
Under the new law, which requires payment of
postage in advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
cents the cost of prepaid postage added, is the
rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get
up a dub in order to have the Weekly Hun at this
rate. Any one who sends one dollar and twenty
cents will get the paper, postpaid for one year.
We have no traveling agents.
TIIE WEEKLY SUN—Eight pages, 66 c
Only $1.20 a year, postage prepaid. No dl

THE DAILY SUN—A large four-page newspaper
of twt uty-eight columns. Daily circulation over
