lEt"HA tne FhlI0uelphia North American, Novenl-
bcr Is.
We, yesterday, had an interview with
gentleman, returned on the same mornino
from Georgia. His adventures for the lust
few days have been rather exciting than
leaSurable. For the sake of handle we
call him MIR. C.. Mr.. G. was engaged
us a salesman bya business man in the In
terror OF Georgia, and is well known in
TINS clty-his pltce of nativity-ns a use
of him BY some 0tztn eEaNaltts'uz ffttreer..i.,
in which he resided.
Last week q committee efFfiVe Soughs
called at, the store in which he was en-
gagged. Scowling upon him, they impart-
ed the information that his presence in the
town could no longer be permitted, aud
that in the event of his remaining they
would not be responsible for his early de-
cease.
siWhy," said lie, ''I am as much in favor of
southern rights as you are. [ voted for
/ Douglas, aud exerted my personal intlu-
ence to secure hiss election
''That makes no difference was the
curt reply. "You are u Philadclphiun,
and yon must leave. Forty-eight hours
| hence, if you are still here, you'll receive
n coat of tar and feathers"
"But," demonstrated Mr.. G., 'my prin-
cipnl is absent. | can't desert him in this
/ way. will not so till he returns, and
the man who lays IL finger on me shall rue
it."
The committee took their. departure, and
Mr.. g. armed himself A friend AROUSED
him during the night, and informed him
that a mob of ruGiions were on their. way
to assault him. He Immediately left, and
made his way to Savannah. Will it be
credited that the ruffians, ungered at his
escape, tclegraphed to Savannah his de-
scription, as an expelled nbolitionist p
Such is the flct, and on his arrival at Sa-
vannah it required all his ingenuity to
make his way to the steamer without re-
ceiving violence.
MIR. G.. arrived in the city yesterday NOR
ming, no longer a Douglas man, but a de-
cided Lincoln man. But this isn't all the
story. By the samc steamer arrived q
gentleman and lady driven from Georgia
by the same menaces. The gentleman had
taken his wife there by the advice of med.
cal men, that peculiar climate being con.
Sidered of bcnefitto her. They were qui-
city sojourning at 81 hotel, minding theil
own business, when the same committee
who had visited Mr.. G., also gave thcm1no
tice to quit.
The rnffiaus thus acting, we understand
are the canalite Of the place, yet, just Il
present. their fiat seems to ovrrawe til,
conservative portion of the people. II
, neither of these cases were the. banishcC
parties adherents of the Republican party
though henceforth it will be hard TO fnt
them upon any other side.

Letter from Leesburg.

Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette.
LEEsBURG, Va, May 80 have just
learned the particulars of the melancholy
accident to Mr.. Barr Swart.
He, with Sanford Gulick, George w.
Ganett, and lad named Cant, were fishing
in Little River near Aide. They had caught
number of cells, which Cant was employed
in stringing, out of the reach of danger
In endeavoring to secure large one, bot
tie, containing their bait, was knocked into
the stream.
The huttering of a bird was heard, and
Mr.. Ganett stepped out with gun to shoot
it for bait, looking up he saw it light on the
end of large limb of the tree under which
they were sitting, and just as it did 50 The
limb began t. fall. He called to them get
out of the way, or you'll be killed. when
Gulick gancing upward saw it close upon
| him and Swart and rolled out of the way, es-
Gaping unhurt.
Swart attempted to rise glancing upwards
| as he did sol and received Il blow from the
| limb which broke two holes into his skull,
and pressing his weight torcibly upon his
| right eg dislocated the ANGLE. and forced the
bone entirely through the skin. 1t is said
he was not seen to breathe after he was
| struck.
The hail storm of Saturday did immense
| damage to crops in its course, and 1t Is for
tunate that its track was narrow. Mr.. j.
| Lewis Having, / understand, suffered very
much in his crop. The same day there was
| hail storm of considerable violence in that
region of our County called between the
hills" There were scattering hail stones as
large as cherries, near Everhart's mill in the
Irish Corner. Here there was only heavy
| rain.
| Within two weeks past the cheering pros
pcct for heavy yield of wheat in the county
between Goose Greek meeting house aud
! Waterford, has been sadly marred. The
| fields have lately assumed Il sedgy appear
ance, and farmers are desponding very much.
Between this place and the Point of Rocks
the wheat yet looks well.
notice that Mr.. Thomas W. Birkby is
putting up carriage making establish
ment The business heretofore carried on
by him and his brother Joseph, will in
future be conducted by each separately,
and as they have the same workmen, those in
want of good strong carriages suitable to
| Virginia Roads, will find them in our town.
The selection of magistrates for our Coun-
ty does credit to the good sense of our peo-
pie; they will compare favorably with APP
pontments under the old system. May it
ever be so. ALIQUIS.

The CANVASS OPENED.-Perhaps the first
speech in favor OF Bell and Everett IN |lr-
GINA was made by the County Elector for
New Kent, at Il fsh-fry on the l9th ut.
The canvass for Judge and local Officers III
that county, induced a general turn out OF
the people of James City, Charles City and
New Kent, on the occasion alluded 10, and
Mr. John Tyler, son of the ex-Rresldent.
awaited himself of the occasion to harangue
the people. In the course Of his remarks he
pitched into Bell and Everett. Bell, OF
course was broken down politician, while
Everett was an Abolitionist. This brought
out Major Walden, the County E!cctor, who
repealed in vigorous manner, the assaults
upon our Constitutional Union leaders, and
seemed to think the notes from the Bell OF
Tennessee would prove the funeral tolllng
to all disunionists, ire-eaters and sectional
lists everywhere. Richmond L. Lacy esq,
for many years leading member of the
Legislature, was also called out, and made a
telling speech in favor of Bell and Everett,
with whom the people Of that section Of the
State are wonderfully pleased.-Petersd'"y

A SEVERE STORM Of rain and hail passed
over this county on Saturday afternoon
last. In this vicinity the rain fell in tor
rents, flooding the streets, and swelling the
small streams until they were almost mpas-
sable. In the southern portion of the coun-
tv, we regret to hear. that the storm was at
tended with fall of hail. the like of which
was unknown to the ''oldest inhabitants. =
The forest was stripped of its foliage, houses
robbed of their panes, and in the neighbour
hood of Aide and Mount Gilead, conSldera-
bic damage done the growing crops. Among
the sufferers from the effects of the storm, we
have heard of John II. Simpson, X. Bent

the loss of the latter is said TO have been
very great--he will hardly raise bushel OF
wheat to the acre. \ reliable gentleman IN

WuIr-MoyDAY SpoETs.-Refreshed by re-
cent rains, nature assumed her sweetest
charms, and promised day admirably adap-
ted to our anticipated enjoyments The sun
arose clear and cloudless, (dissipating the
gray mist that tipped the hills, and extend
ed itself along the grassy meadows and
beamed gloriously upon joyous world
The pearly dew that sparkied brightly on
the vertlant carpet of the field, shrank from
beneath his penetrating gaze, and arose to
form the few tleecy clouds that fioated hther
and thither in the blue ether, like swans Oh
the placid surface of some sylvan lake.
Ii ht-hearted and joyous, we started for
the banks Of the usually calm and serene
| Potomac, though now dark and turbld, and
somewhat swollen by the recent rains. Ar
irving. at last, after merry ride over rock
and rill, and rustic bridge, we eagerly pre-
| pared for our piscatory exercise.
After enjoying this sport Tor some time,
we attempted to cross the river on terry
boat, and when about halfway over, the
boat, owing to the swi(tness of the curreht,
and the inexperience of the gentlemen
aboard commenced rapidly to descend the
river, and but for the timely assistance OF
the ferryman we might have had longer
ride than we at first intended. However,
we safely crossed and recrossed, and enjoyed
the ride very much.
After returning to the Virginia shore we
prepared to discuss the excelenclcs Of GER
tain viands, slowed away in Sundry boxes
and baskets, prepared and conveyed hlther
for our own especial edItication. WITH ap-
petites whetted by our mornings exercises
and enjoyments, we gathered around the
snowy white cloth, spread upon the grassy
turf, and partook of the tempting food, WITH
peculiar pleasure.
After satisfying our appetites, we again
stroled off in pursuit of peasure-some 10
the boats, others returned to their tackles
and again essayed to tempt the less cautious
of the fnny tribe from their tavorite ele-
ment; while Others again, seated themselves
at the root of some time honOrcd monarch
of the forest, to pass away the evening III I"
quiet chat with some fair friend, or, per,
chance, lady love- Thus time flew by cn
lightning wings, until the sun hung low III
the West, when we prepared to return 10 W.
respective homes, after passing day io"s
to be remembered for its unalloyed happ'hes''

MISUNDERSTANDING the mail routes
restored by the famous proviso adopted by
the House of Representatives a few days
since, was that from Kansas to Stockton, in
California. For this service the Post Office
Department paid at the rate of eighty thou
saul d0i(urS per- annam. For the nine
months that it was in operation, the returns
showed that there were transported in this
mail between Kansas and Stockton but three
letters and twenty-six newspapers. The ser
vice was useless, as it was extravagant, and
was discontinued by the Postmaster Gener-
al. The House has now ordered 1t to be re-
stored, although there are four other routes,
maintained at vast cost, connecting the val
ley of the Mississippi with the Pacific, and
although over S25 miles of this route, mail
is now carried under prc-existing contract.
Thus the oppressed revenues Of the Depart
ment are to be made to pay 900 for the
carriage Of three letters and twenty-six news
papers during the ensuing year! Does the
history Of the most corrupt times furnish
parallel to such guilty waste of the public
money! Wash. ConsiitutiOn
