sometimes an item is admitted to our
columns on the positive assertion of
some dispatch or letter which is af.
terwards proven to be erroneous. But it
is our aim to exclude all false and i'm
probable rumors, that our readers need
not look to have what they have ta-
ken as true in one paper, contradicted
in the next. And these are some of the
troubles of an editor, who does not
choose to trifle with his readers by fll-
ing his columns with fctions under the
delusive heading of important news.
P. S.-Since the above was written,
we have received the Cincinnati Com.
n'ercial of Monday, Of this week, with
the following confirmation of the capture
of Yaneey, in q letter direct from Kew

A TRAITORS WIFE.


Charles J. Faulkner. late United Minister
TO France. resides near Mattinsbure in Nlr-
GINA His course as diplomatist. employ
ing his position to subserve the cause of the
rebellion, is notorious. His wife is said 30 be
the evil genius mitigating him to folly and
mischief She would not permit him to be
quiet or peaceful. Having strong will,
great love Of ostentauon, and ambition for
aggrandizement. she pushed her husband to
launch his bark in trouble political waters.
Having seen all the splendors which Richmond
or Washington could exhibit Says the cor
respondent Of the Philadelphia Inquirer her
ursatiated appetite longed for the more excli-
ing scenes Of the French Metropolis. She
literally thrust her husband, by a series Of
political intrigues, most deliberately conduct
ed, into the French embassy upon the demise
Of poor Mason.
Hther she went, with her two accomplish
ed daughters. Their father returned in time
enough to run the blockade at New Orleans,
with large number of muskeis f. the Con-
federate army. He had prostituted his high
mission as our minister abroad to procure
the most efficient means OF destroying the
government he represented. His family have
returned. They are now living in peace and
quietness within our lines, under the protec-
ton Of the Stars and Stripes, the property
projected and their rich harvests gathered,
whilst their father and his son-in-law are both
serving the Southern cause with all their tai
enis. in various departments
Mrs. Charles J. Faulkner is the widest and
most experienced diplomat in the valley Of
Virginia. She is more dangerous than Belle
Boyd. because she is more adroit, and has
larger social influence and greater means Of
accomplishing her purposes She is even now
almost nigh ly inviting ooterios OF our young
officers to her house. She and her two
daughters lavish their most courtly blandish-
ments upon them, and ere they know It,, ere
they have perceived their purpose, all tho in
teligence they desire is extracted As a
matter Of course, our plans, our movements,
the number Of our troops and the direction
of their march, or the number in garrison, are
duly transmitted 70 Richmond by the by-way
post route. which the re bells have all through

One OF the most appalling calamilies that
has occurred IN this vicinity for many years,
was caused by the explosion of the powder
mslls Of the Hazard Powder Company hi. at

all the employees in the building were instant
~ killed. The FIRE first occurred in the press
mill. and was followed in rapid succession by
the blowing up Of -four Others in tie vicinity.
The total amount of powder destroyed is esti-
mated at about forty tons. Il was TO be shin

There were eight killed outright and a few
injured. Only two Of the bodies were imme-
diately recovered. The others were blown
to pieces, aud the only fragments found were
heads, fingers and portions of limbs, all
which filed only on ordinary water pail, and
were found in all directions and great dis
lance from the explosion. So severe was the
