THE AGONY OVER.

We announced, last week, the passage of the
Kansas ball through both Houses of Congress
Washington letter-writers state that the excite
ment was very great for two days previous to the
passage of the bill Old Giddings got so wrathy
at the prospect of the defeat of the black republ
cans that he fainted-Burlingam Washburne
Campbell, and Bingham, were furious, and de-
bounced the measure in every shape possible
Mr. Gilmer of N. c., voted for it.
In the Senate, Douglas and Seward opposed it
with all their might.
We don't know that We explain the bill
better than it is done in the following extract from
the Wilmington Journal
'The bill reported by the Kansas Committee of Con-
ference and passed by both Houses admits Kansas
der the Lecompton Constitution, but says Kansas
asks for too much land. 1t says Kansas-"Come in
under the Lecompton Constituton-that we recognise
as Ri ht and proper but you can't get the of
land you ask for-that is unreasonable AS the trustee
of the States, Congress not and will give it to
you. You can have the usual amount granted to the
new States as the condition of their formal waiver of
their claim to tax the lands other property of the
United States within their border. That is about
third OF what you unreasonaby ask If you choose
to take that you can come in. If you don't you can
stay out That is the gist of the Conference bill 1t
is what 1t says in effect, and yet the Black Republican
press at the North and feeble Know Nothing
echoes the South call this bride to induce Kansas to
accept Lecompton queer bride to induce Kansas to
accept Lecompton, when the condition of acceptance
that Kansas shall be with less third of
the land she asks for.
1t was announced that Gov. Walker kansas Walker)
approved the bill, but it that after further
sideratOn he has expressed opposition to it connec
ton with black republicanism.
The whole matter may be summed up thus: If Kan
does not choose to accept the Lecompton Constu
on she must stay out of the Union for the and
wait until she has the requisite amount of population
to entitle her to Representative in Congress

HAIL STORMS.

We learn that the southern part of Iredcll county
visited by hail Sunday night the
I'd inst. Wheat damaged considerably, fences
blown down, &C. On Tuesday night following,
heavy rain fell which greatly added to the damage
done by the ha-on sloping ground deep gulles were
washed and fields injured good deal in that way.
A correspondent writes to the Fayetteville Observer
from Montgomery county, under date of the 3Oth,
follows:
"A terrific hail storm passed through the neigh
borhood between Edinboro and Swift Island about
seven miles wide 1t in the direction of Alder
marie and passed towards Troy, spending its fury
mostly in the neghborhood of Zion Church, sweeping
down fences houses and prostrating the largest pines
the forest by thousands twisting them off above the
ground in instances, and generally tearing them
up from their deepest foundations. hear of no lives
lost; but of many who very narrowly escaped 1t has
been quite cool since the storm. On last Tuesday
morning the thermometer stood at $40 and Wednes-
day morning at 800; and the impression is that the
wheat crop is bitten down. fruit and tender vegetables
generally destroyed"
Another correspondent writing from Stanly county,
says:
1--WE had a severe storm of wind and hail on Friday
last and three heavy osts since: The Tuesday
morning kill the fruit, cotton
&C The wind threw down many houses and barns and
a great quantity of timber. 1t varied from half to
three miles in width"
The western Democrat. [volume] (Charlotte, N.C.) 1852-1870, 1858-05-11

Ia correspondent of the Fayetteville OBJ
server gives the following account of the horrid
affair to which we alluded last week having &C.
CURED in Richmond county:
| learn from a gentleman from Montgomery, that a
dreadful tragedy occurred Pekn in that county
on Saturday last. A negro boy belonging to John
Chapel returned home to his masters house, within n
mile of Pekn, from visit to his wife who owned
in the neighborhood He had exhibited signs of insan
ty before leaving the place where his wife stayed and
after reaching his masters house he acted strangely
His master, supposng that medical aid mig ht be of
benefit him, after DR.. J. Ewing, who lives in
that neighborhood but the Doctor absent at the
time and did not visit Chappes until about two O'Clock
in the afternoon When the Doctor approached Chap
pels house he met young who told him that the
negro Lloyd, whom he had been sent to see was
endeavoring with to kill every person about the
place That he drawn to the place by the cries OF
the family that he approached the house to rescue
the sufferers the negro Lloyd made at him with an axe
and he compelled to retreat to his own e as
he was unarmed. DR. Ewing prevailed on him to return
with him to Chappes house. On reaching the house,
they found John Chapel lying nearly dead in his yard
his wife lying him dead, with her skull so
badly broken that brains running OUT and two of
Chappes children badly injured that their lives are
despaired Of Lloyd at the time i'll pursuit of some
of the children who trying make their escape
They succeeded in carrying Chapel into the house,
and the Doctor was examining his wounds. when the
negro Lloyd returned and towards the house with
an axe in his hands, and threatening to kill DR.. Ewing.
The Doctor took up loaded gun and requested him
not to come nearer. The negro, however rushed on,
and the Doctor discharged the gun at him, lodging Its
contents in his body, killing him almost instantly
John Chapel died on Sunday morning. 1t is thought
the negro had fit of insanity.

LECTURES.

Rev. f. A. Mood, A. NJ. of the South Carolina
Conference, will commence this evening, at the
Court House, course of Lectures ON his travels
In Europe. The proceeds from these Lectures are
to be appropriated towards building new Metho-
dist Church in Charlotte We have noticed in
our exchanges very favorable notices of Mr. Moods
Lectures In South Carolina, and we feel certain in
saying that all who attend his course here will be
Instructed and grati6ed. The object in view in
having these Lectures delivered here is COM
mendable one-the building of a new Church in
this town-and we presume all our citizens are
willing to contribute something for that purpose.

EXPLAIN YOUR PRINCIPLEs.-Mr McRae claims to be
a democrat and we now call upon him to explain his
meaning He is advocating wing measurable is act
ing with the opposition the only prominent issue
in this campaign and desire him to show upon what
ground he claims to be democrat.
Some weeks ago we called upon him to say whether
he favored the principles of the nothing party
not Mr. Mc2ae absent at Paris during the
between know-nothngism and democracy, and the
people would like to know which party he sympathized
with. He must not remain silent this pont-somc-
body might be deceived; and he promises to
heterogeneous, hope he will explain his position
with regard to peculiar Amcricansm.
The western Democrat. [volume] (Charlotte, N.C.) 1852-1870, 1858-05-11

HoMICIDE.-We learn that on Thursday last, a
shocking homicide was committed in Darlington
District 1t appears thas- a-mrs Kelly, prompted
by jealousy, repaired to the house of Mrs. Thomp-
son, armed with bowie knife, to redress her sup
posed wrongs. Upon reaching the house, she ad-
dressed herself to Miss Thompson, the supposed
paramour of her husband. Angry words ensued,
and an enauete was about to take place, when Mrs
Thompson interfered, and was pierced into the
stomach with the knife, which caused her imme-
date death. We have not heard of the arrest of
the perpetrator of this deed of blood, yet Che
rdar Gazette.

Ra5" Our opposition friends seem determined to
take up Mr. McRae and try to make him Governor,
or Senator, or something else. At the risk of
being considered meddlesome, must say that
they showing very ungrateful spirit in thus
acting Have they of their number
who has stood up against the democracy throug ID
evil as we'll good report, on whom to bestow
their suffragcs? Are the old warriors of the whig
party in North Carolina willing to be led about by
mongrel politician? They ought not to submit
to such things, and we know some of them will
not They have several men who can get more
votes than Mr. McRae. There is Edward J. Hale,
of the Fayetteville Observer, Ga man who has
done FIVE times more for the whig party than any
other man in the State, who, if nominated, could
stay at his Office and get more votes (more demo-
cratic votes, too } than Mr. McRae will get. Mr.
Hale has made many small great one
by his pen and types and press. (And we will
just remark here, in parenthesis, that there are
a number of "great men" in the world who have
been made SO by the press-men who never could
have made themselves anything had it not been
for the putting and bracing-up given by editors
men who would have disgraced themselves after
they got into public life it not for the fact
that their speeches and letters passed through
printing Office before they met the public eye)
Does not the whig party owe Mr. Hale something?
Are they determined to keep him at the lever,
pricing up small-big-men Ga hard and rather dis
agreeable job sometimes) and never honor him
even with a nomination? We tell the rank and
file of the whig party that such men as Hale are
the true leaders-they are the sort of men that
kept life in their party as long as it could be kept
there-and it is ungrateful to pass them by and
hurra for man that never has and never can do
them any good. Parties, like Republics, are in
deed ungrateful.
We have no motive for writing the above other
than desire to see justice done all around. If
our whg friends were to hold Convention and
nominate Mr. Hale, we could not think of support
ing him. but we had rather have an out-and-out
political enemy against than one of these
!" snake-in-the-grass kind.
