POLITICAL PREACHING IN BosToN.-Fast Day in
Boston was marked on Friday last with the usual
number Of political sermons. though the senti-
ments expressed were In few instances as ultra as
those heretofore enunciated upon similar occasions
At the Park Street Church the Rev A L. Stone,
full OF the spirit Of ''anOther gospel" recon-.
mended disunion rather than concession. As re-
ported in the Evening Bulletin, the reverend
gentleman said
" But what would be the result If there were no
return or reconstruction, IL the Border and the
Southern States seOuld join, and there should be
free republic and slave republic, side by side In
America? We need not deprecate such an issue
for ourselves If that is the only way to shake off
the GO body Of death, ,"-the only way to avoid
giving aid for the perpetuation Of slavery,-give
US this free territory with all its hazards OF border
warfare,-let us take it and remain true to free
DOM
The sentiment was received with considerable
clapping of hands, a demonstration which was
reproved by the preacher, who reminded the au-
dience that they were in the house of God, In at
tendance upon religious services.

From Moptgomery.

Ihe Montgomery correspondent of the
Charleston Mercury writes, April Sd:
For few days past we have been in great
state OF uncertainty in this city, on account of
the conflicting statements received by tele-
graph from all parts Of the country. The State
Department has received assurance from Wash-
ington that the forts will be given up; but, per
contra, the indications in the War Department
are that fight will commence in q short time
AT any rate, our people will be prepared for
with activity. l stepped into the Commissary s
Department this evening, and found there a
large quantity of army stores and munitions of
war. Among the stores were some 2, 900 bbs.
of -four, sacks Of corn, barrels of meat boxes Of
bread-everything, IN fact, necessary for the
comfort of the soldiers who will soon be in the
field. There are several army depots in the
COnfederacy, at each of which large quantities
Of stores are being deposited daily
There were ruInOrs in this city yesterday
brought by gentleman who came as bearer of
dispatches from Pensacola, that 1t. SIemmer
has become alarmed at the number of men
daily pouring into Warrington, and had de-
manded reinforcement from the United States
vessels in the harbOr. He also reported that
when the vessels arrived at Key West with the
Texas troops who were under General Twiggs,
they were Immediately sent to sea with sealed
orders, and it is thought highly probable these
may be for Fort Pickens Lieut. Slemmer
knows that if reinfOrcements are denied him a
short time longer, it will be impossible to land
them, as our forces are daily growing stronger
and will most certainly prevent the landing of
any troops from the ships.
1t is also rumOred that the Spanish feet has
been seen at the TOrtugas, bound westward,
probably for Vera Cruz. 1 hardly think how
over, an attack will be made upon that town
at present, owing to st. Domingo difficulties
but it was supposed here a short time ago that
the nect sailed to the Gulf for the purpose of
landing men at Vera Cruz, and taking posses
sion Of the city.
Our navy comes on slowly, but the time is
not very far in the future when we shall have
some men-Of-war afoat. Officers and navy
agents are now at the various seaports in this
country, trying to negotiate for vessels to be
Immediately fitted up and put into service A
few officers are now recruiting for the naval
service. Reuben Thorn, Esq, of this city, and
late captain in the Alabama army, has been
appointed captain of marines in the Con-
federate service.

HORRIBLE ACCIDEST.-On Thursday morn
ing, about o'clock, terrible cries were heard
proceeding from the area-way between the
rears of No. p Beekman and No. IL Spruce
street. A whitewasher who was at work in
the room on the ground floor of the Spruce
street building ran to the door and saw the
body of a man whirling on a steam-shaft that
passed from one building to the other. He
then went acress the street and told the engi-
neer to stop the engine, which was done imme-
diately. On going back it was found that the
victim had become so completely entangled
that it took two men several minutes to cut
away the clothing and disengage him from the
shaft. The man was German, named Fred
erick Adolph, and apparently about thirty
years OF age 1t appears that he was engaged
in whitewashing the walls, and was probably
leaning against the revolving shaft, when the
strings OF his overalls, which were tied behind.
got wound about the shaft, and the man was
affair occupying but a point of time-and
whirled round at the rate of ITO revolutions
per minute. At every revolution he struck his
feet first against an iron gateway higher than
the shaft, and distant three feet and Ave inches
at an angle Of asoat 35 degs.; next the ground.
three feet below the shaft; then brick wall
dividing the area. foar feet from the shaft,
Some portions of his body was therefore hit
over 300 times per minute. Quite a hole wa:
made in the ground where he had struck, and
the edge Of the iron gangway showed polish
made by the leather of the mans boots hitting
it SO many times before they came off. Both
feet were nearly battered away, the bones o.
the right foot being all knocked out between
the ankle and the toes, leaving a shapeles,
clotted mass. When found he gave his name,
| and exclaimed, 'Oh, horror, horror" Hewa,
taken to the City Hospital by officer Jane,
Mckay, but died Immediately after his arriya
there.
The shaft has been where il now is for years

Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1861-12-05

Gov. PierpOint Of Kanavhs, or Western
Virginia, delivered to the Senate and House
Of Representatives in Wheeling, on EJnday |
last a very sound message. In speaking Of
the rebellion, be says that the leaders OF it,
in The blindness of their wrath, have
sought to throw aside the protection Of the
Oonstitusion-the best safeguard Of the very
rights they we're so anxious to mA;ntain.-
But the tide Of the rebellion Is receding, FOR
the American people have resolved that theis
Government shall be maintained and defend
ed. In regard to Virginia, Gov. PierpOint
calls upon the people to rally to the support
Of ths stars and stripes, and refers to the Ia
menta6le condition Of that portion Of the
State under control Of the rebels. There, he
has sscertained, all the able-bOdied males be-
tween the ages of sixteen and sixty have
been forced iuto the Confederate army. A
large portion Of the slaves have been sent
south for security. All the live stock has
been seized for the use of the rebel army;
farms have been stripped of horses, wagons,
fencing and timber, and the houses of the
people ofblankets and clothing, and whatever
would be ofserviee to the rebels. Oonfeder-
ste Treasury Notes are already at q discount
Of thirty per cent at Richmond, and the most
desperate measures are being taken to cause
these semi-wOrthless papers to be taken at
par value, even death and cOn6scat!on being
demanded against merchants who make any
distinction between them and coin.
The success which has attended the recon.
struction of the State Government has been
mos: gratifying. Western Virginia has now
ten regiments in the field and three artillery
companies. OF this force three fourths arr
Inhabitants of Virginia, and one fourth o
Pennsylvania and Ohio. Besides fund.-
enough to sustain the civil service, Their
was $4,000 in the Treasury on the 3oth o
September.
The Governor recommends confscation o
the property of all persons who may be en-
gsged in rebellion, and strong measures
against those whose sympathies are with the
rebels, and who only wait the success Of thu
Oonfederates to openly express their treason
he says that during the revolutionary wa
those who refused to take the oath Of allie
glance were, among other penalties, deprived
of the right of sueing for any debt, subjected
to the payment of double taxes, and PrOhib
tied from carrying on any trade or commerce
Whatever while any person who should
within the State, by any word OF act defen'
the authority Of the King or Parliament o
Great Britain, was subjected to fine of no
exceeding twenty thousand pounds, and Il
Imprisonment of not more than five years
These measures would at this time be deeme'
severe, but he recommends that sOms..actiol
may be taken upon the matter.
