Now is the Time.

The next thirty or forty days prcsoge stir
ring times, and newspapers will be sought with
ayidily. In order to frnisha paper worthy
OF patronage we shall spare no pains, and ask
a liberal patronage. We are not actuated by
cupidity if we were we could have easily
found Il wider field than following our legiti-
mate business in our native town. But very
few are aware Of the heavy expense of pub
fishing a daily paper at any time and especi-
ally now, therefore We ask II moro liberal pat
ronage, because we believe our paper merits it.

the past winter she bore her acute suEerings

the past winter she bore her acute sutterTngs
pa iently and with trustful submission to the
evident will of her Heavenly Father, and then
when the season Of the flowers and "tho time
of the singing of birds" had come, she gently
passed away to the land where shiEes ever
more the fadeles spring time of love, Called
upon to leave behind her a devoted husband, q
loving mother and sister, and two children,
upon whom every treasure of her maternal al
lection was layished, the doom of departure
was hard and grievous to be borne the trial,
however, found her ready to make every prep
a~ration. She sorrowed, but did not murmur.
She bent beneath the burden, but sought not,
in Il rebelliouS spirit, to cast it down. In her
last illness she anticipated often the glorious
change when corruption shouldbe clothed with
interruption, and seeking also the future intor-
est Of those she loved. She frequently, with
tenderest entreatics, besought them so to live
that they too might triumph in the hour Of
departure, and thus be enabled to rejoin heri in
heaven. Her last moments were occupied in a
touching farewell to her family, and her feeblest
breath expressed thanksgiving to Him who
has robbed the grave of its victory. Lives like
hers are not known of the world, but the watch
ing angels keep the record, and smile to see it.
May God, in His infinite mercy, console the
bcreaved husband, the weeping mother and
sister, and be, as. He has promised, a comforter
indeed to the motherless orphans. II.

Captain H. II. Garden, company d, 18th

1881, and died in H~arrodsburg, Ky, on the
Goth day Of October, 1862, ola wound received
Mt the battle of Perryyille, while battling for
his country's rights. 1t is but due to the
memory of the deceased to say that he was
brave and tender hearted, and universally be-
loved by his men, who ever Lored to obey him.
He entered the service on the Goth of May,
1861, us a private, not for the promise of pay,
but purely for the love of country was soon
elected Sd Lieutenant, and, under the rcorgan-
ization was elected Captain over Capt. Finch's
old company. This brave, patriotic, and be-
loved young officer fell cheering his men on to
victory, leaving a disconsolato and heart
broken widow and three lovely children, not
to mention Il long list of friends, to mourn his
untimcly death. Long will be the time be-
fore the vacuum occasioncd by lis death car
BE- filed; but he has gone, as we trust, to Join
L more brilliant army in the skies, where no
more wounds will be inflicted, and whcredeatl
never comes. May his praiseworthy example
incitc others to like deeds of bravery ant
daring for the relief pnl redemption of our
bleeding country. NJ. II.

1ERRlBLE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. halt past
one o'clock yesterday afternoon the cit
liens of the ninth ward were startled by
a terrific explosion, as though proceed,
ing from the firing of heavy artillery.
The report was heard ali over the city
but was generally regarded as the firing
of cannon over the receipt of some i'm
portant news.
The explosion had taken place in the
store of Mr.. X. Goehring, corner Of
Eighth and Chestnut streets.
On reaching the scene of tumult we
beheld sad and dismal sight.
The two story brick building occupied
by Mr.. Doehring was wreck, so shat
tered and torn as to require support
from timbers.
The windows, sash and frames, were
blown out and some of them across the
street.
The interior of the store was mass
of ruins. Crockery was broken, boxes
shivered to pieces and their contents
scattered about. The lower floor was
torn n M. the plastering stripped from the
celiin9 ABOVE, and the upper +,,,----
up. The walls of the building are shat
tered and bulged out, until in danger of
falling.
On the second story beside the door,
bricks are forced out of the wall and all
the upper windows blown out.
The scales on which Doehring was
weighing powder, when the explosion
occurred was blown up to the ceiling
and remained sticking into the lath-
ing, and the whole premises is an indis
criminate mass of ruins The cause of
the explosion, as we learn, is as follows:
4 man named John w. Cunningham,
who resides four miles from Hen
derson, in Kentucky, was purchasing
powder of Doehring, who proceeded to
pour the powder from a keg into the
scales, having at the same time lighted
pipe in his mouth. The result is easily
anticipated. A spark of fire fell into
the powder with the results enumerated
above.
These results are not all. Goehring
is undoubtedly, fatally burnt and wound
ed, his whole body being shockingly
burned, his hands gashed and CIT
as if by broken glass, and his face filled
with powder, until it is black as night.
Cunningham was also badly burned
about the face, neck and hands, and pre-
sented a pitiable sight.
A little girl, a daughter of Captain
Cochran, as we are informed, who was
passing at the time, on her way to school,
