S.--Un Sunday last, the third day of 'August, this city wag visited by one of the fiercest elec trical storms that it has ever experi enced within the memory of hving men. For half an 'hour the thunde rolled in a wild and continuous ex plosion and. the Blinding lightning stashed as if the-order of nature . was reversed and the heavens were on hire instead of. that other place, where everlasting punishment is meted out to sinners. It was a wild carnival of the elements which, being once seen or felt, leit no desire for a repetition. At noonday the heavens were, as black as an ondinary midnight, dles, lanips and gas were lighted in every direction, and a heavy dread of something out of the usual course, and. it seemed for the time to paralyze anything like mortal action and one could only stand or sit and watch and wait for the destructive bolt that can brought lite and death in such. close commune. While the thunder rolled incessantly and the lightning flashed without cessation, the windows ol heaven were opened and the rain pout ed «down and torrents, 1 minding one oi the story of Noah and the ark, whéeh for forty days and forty nights he was the sole link of the world's salvation | cen the present and the past. idea of th extent of the caused hy this . phenomenal evelone would - Fe literally The farmers, whose summer crops were just comib in sheets To give an destruction impossible. to the perfection that would make them marketable, are bowed to the earth in sackcloth and ashes, crushed wy the svorm, which has left black rain around their homes and farms. [he loss has also been quite heavy in ditierent parts of the city. All calm while 1. write,. but it will be many days, perhaps months, before the ruinous marks of this. terribk tempest are effaced. It ix evident to the most casual ol sciver that politics are beginning to tr and that slates are being formed which will lominate the next ale tion. A little while ago it looked though: Senator Platt was about to retive from politivs, but if we may (rust our ears and eyes nothing ea be farth@& from his intentions. QL day we hear of him at Sagamore Hill holding conference with the president a~>to the future combinations in th state of New York, and all refractory politicians who attempt "to destroy the peace which now reigns univer need expect scant mercy when settling dav comes and the loaves and fishes are to he distributed." Next day we hear of Senator--Platt--at Manhattan Peach surrounged by a bevy of the tried and true of the grand old party, who, like tien. Jackson, the sheet a [ swear "hy chor of democrpey, used to the al, the he preserved" While talking on politics let us not than on \ unfon must and shall that therd is more state of Nev the hat 2 echo will ical party in While peace is tle ery, of the republicans to In he taken up hy the democrats gnd the will he rune from Chautan Montauk.

'out great as ner contractors will have to pay will mean ruin to theni, and I can hardly see how they will continue the.work with- tance from the city. v. the city was treated to a wild excitement last week, when thousands oi the irhabitants in the upper portion of the city were tremb- ling with fear. and they' had haraly red from their fit when the wild By the w reco storm of Sunday almost took' the roofs from the houses A hurry call was sent out to every police precinct irom the Battery to the Bronx that a wild' leopard "had escaped from the v00 "some tifne during the night and at that very moment might be mak- ino a breakfast on some unfortunate milkman: or. gnergetic baker who weie making their morning calls. A tiger is a bad animal to meet1when he is looking about for a lunch, but he has a bold defiance about him that eives him a «quasi respectability: but the leppard is a sneaking cur; he has gu hangdog lpok which places him outside the pale ofr himan mercy;e his appetite always 'seems whetted to a keen edge, and, though he may have a preference for pickled missionary, he has no persanal objection to a _black- smith or a hodegrrier. But I am not now telling yvouw-6f the conaition of nis appetite; at was enough for the people to know that the leopard had escaped from the zoo and was then in the wildest jungle of Bronx Park. The reserves were hurried out from the dii- ent, precincts, pistols were examin- 1. billys were made ready for use, the night sticks -were firmly "grasped atl ed, there was hardly a man in the service who did not think that he ought not to .be called upon to hunt savage ani- mals in their native wilds, la It was no use for talking reason at such a time. "A savage monster had escaped from his cage and the ques- tion was how to-get him back. Ser- vant girls put an extra bolt upon the : old ladies looked fearfully out of their third storey windows, mounted policemen with revolvers in hand ex- pected every moment to meet this wild forest denizen. When the excitement was at its height, Patrick Casey's daughter Biddy, who is very fond of cats, larce and small, was in her back yard with a saucer full of milk intended for one of 'her favorites. Looking up on the fence she saw Qa nice, wood sized kitten all covered with spots, and she said, = "Kitty, Kitty, Kitty." holding the saucer up in = the most tempting manner. Kitty had evi dently had no breakfast, for it requir- ed no further invitation, and without doors, the least sign of fear went to the saucer and lapped up its contents in less" time than it takes tos tell the story. An old lady looking out from her back window saw' the monster and cave a scream. It was the miniature leopard that had escaped from the Zoo. A number of policemen rushed in and secured the monster, who was carried back" to his cage in the Zoo, | where the mother leopard was impati ently awaiting its return; and if anv one ever witnessed-a display of hum an alifection where a mother had recov- a lost child it could never! be sur- ed hyv--the caresses bestowed by wild "beast little forest darling. .
