The article also covers Virginia Republicans and various state conventions across the country, including union labor and Missouri, South Carolina, Maryland, Minnesota, and California conventions with brief delegate actions and platform mentions.

Floods and Hydrophobia Panic Sweep Several Towns

Advices from Mississippi River towns report two levee breaks two miles below the Henntal bridge and above it, causing widespread flooding. Livestock moved to high ground, houses wrecked, and water depths of ten to twenty feet with 20,000 acres under cultivation. No human deaths yet, but the river is rapidly receding and rail property at risk. Separate reports note an epidemic of hydrophobia in Carthage area with rabid dogs, panicked residents, and emergency measures. A police sergeant was shot in Tennessee after a disturbance, and the Physiomedical Association session opened in Twin Cities with hundreds of delegates.
