GRAFTON, August "a Last evening,
while Gov. Thomas was addressing the.
crowd in front of hotel, Cumberland, some
secessionists attempted to get up a distur-
bance, which resulted in their being driven
home, and the destruction of the Allegha-
MAN Office, secession sheet.
This morning, the train bound West, with
Gov. Thomas on board, when about miles
this side of Cumberland, came suddenly on
several cross-ties thrown across the road.
At the same time number of armed men
were seen rapidly descending q neighborlng
hill. The engineers increased the speed of
the locomotive, and succeeded in throwing
the ties off the track, with but little damage
to the engine. Some federal scouts then
fired into the train, it is supposed by mis-
take, but without any damage. The design
of the secessionists was to take Gen. Thomas
prisoner.
