IFWe were visited on Tuesday
with the hardest thunder storm Of the
season. The clouds were very low,
and the lightning darted about in too
close proximity to the ground for com
fort. The rod on the large shop Of
John Buchart was struck and broke
in two, and one Of the raftcrs Of the
house shattered into splinters. The
house Of Il. Bergc, north Of town was
struck on the end, the lightning max
ing a small hole, not large enough tc
put IN a mans hand, but entering one
room and breaking a looking glass
going into another room, and in it
course knocking down Mrs. Bergc and
stunning her severely, then entering .
kitchen safe broke it, and demolished
the queenswarc il contained.

stand, that "the practice of impressing sea-
men from American vessels cannot hereafter
be allowed to take place" Lord Ashburton,
in declining to entertain the subject, ex-
pressed the "hope that a satisfactory ar
rangement respecting it might be made, so
as to set at rest all apprehensions and anx-
iety." In view of the position now taken
by the British Government, in objecting to
the summary proceedings Of Capt. Wilkes,
we may safely assume that Great Britain
will never again uphold her naval COM
mapders IN visiting American ships and
searching for alleged British subjects, to be
seized and impressed into the British SER
vice without further ceremony.
Whatever, therefore, may be said by any
in the way Of exception to the extreme terms
of the demand made by the British Govern
ment in the case of the Trent, it is at least
just to admit that the case has been so ad-
justed by our Government as to subserve,
we would hope, the great cause of neutral
rights against the assumptions heretofore
asserted by England, but now ropudiated
by that Power in common with France and
the United States. The law of nations, as
interpreted by our Government,
has received a new sanction, though at the
cost, it may be, of some national sensibili-
ties walked into disproportionate activity by
the temporary exacerbations of our civil
feuds. The latter, let us remember, are but
for day. The law of nations is for all
time

General Ord an AlIeganian.

Brigader General Edward Ohio Cresap
Ord, who bore an active part in the fight at
Drainesville, was born in Allegany county,
Nd, and entered the academy at West
Point in September, 1885. He graduated in
July, 1889, when he was appointed from the
District of Columbia second lieutenant of
the third artillery. In July, 1s41, he was
promoted to first lieut. enancy, and on the
7th Of September, 1850, received his COM
mission as a captain in the third regiment of
United States artillery. In 1856 he was dis
tinguished in several severe conflicts with
the Indians, near Rogue river, Oregon, and
in September, 1858, was engaged in the con-
hict with the savages on the north of Snake
river, Washington Territory. On his recent
return from California he was appointed a
Brigadier General of vo.un teers, and in this
his FIRST engagement with the rebels he has
distinguished both himself and his COM
