The Iowa Tornado. The tornado which swept through, Washington and Keokuk counties, Iowa, on the 22d of May, appears to hebeen one of the most cirwful exhibitions of the power of the elements that has been re- corded in Modern times. Tile details, as they appear in the local reports and the accounts of eye -witnesses, give evi- dence of the apalling fury of the storm and the utter helplessness and impot- ence-- of man to resist or escape its wrath. The real agent of destruction is de- scribed as a black and whirling mass shaped like a huge balloon, which seems to have sprung into being near Lancas- ter township, in Washington --County, and to have .gone careerine with terrible speed over the country to the northeast, sometimes bounding above the -surface of the earth and again coming down and sweeping everything before it like a besom in the hands of a maddened spirit of darkness.
