necessary to speak of the awful sight of thir-
ty-eight human LeiDgs suspended IN the air.
Imagination will readily supply what we re-
frain from describing.
After the bodies had hung for about half
an hour, the physicians of the several regl-
ments present examined the bodies and re-
ported that life was extinct. Soon after
several United States mule teams appeared,
when the bodies were taken down and dump
ed into wagons without much ceremony, and
were carried down to the sand bar in front
of the city, and were buried in the same hole
The halfbrceds were buried in one corner of
the hole, so that they can be disinterred by
their friends.
Everything was conducted in the most
quietly and orderly manner. AS the drop
fell the citizens could not rcprcss a shout of
exultation, in which the soldiers joined. A
boy soldier who stood beside us had his
mother and brother and sisters killed; his
face was pale and quivcring, but he gave a
shout Of righteous eXultation when the drop

course which will be adopted by the sympa.
thizers with sccessionism in tie State of

During the contest for the Presidency in
1860 predicted that the Shareholders would
destroy the railroad between Baltimore and
Washington in order to prevent the naugu-
ration of Republican Chief Magistrate
Mr.. Lincoln was, however, duly installed ::
but my prediction was substantially fulfilled
in the succeeding April. remember well
that this prophecy when made was regarded
rs rash and unfoundcd. Some of our good
friends classcd it among the impossibilities

be probable at that time. many of the evils
of secession would have been anticipated
and crushed. l now feel risking another
prediction, which will have the great adyan-
tage of seeming to be reasonable in view Of
the extraordinary events of the last wear.

eY"The election for L. S. Senator is to
take place on Tuesday next. The principal
candidates named by the Democrats, are
Hon. F. w. Hughes, Hon. Chas. r. Bucka-
lew, Judge Campbell and Hon. Henry D.
Foster. On the other side Gen. Cameron
and Hon. David Wilmot, the present Sena-
tor, are named. The Breckinridgers are ter
ribly frightened, as there is but a majority
of one in favor of their party on joint ballot,
and they are fearful that that one may be
among the missing, and Gen. Cameron elect
ed. Hence their bluster about violence and
assassination if any of the members in poll
teal harness should kick over the traces.
A shrcwd old democratic politician, at Har-
risburg informed us a fews since, that Judge
Campbell would most likely have the highest
vote on the first ballot, but as he has but
little strength outside Philadelphia, he must
fail.

f=S" The annual message of Governor
have only room to refer to it this week.
The Governor represents the finances of the
Commonwealth in most hourishing condi-
ton.
From tables embraced in the message, we
learn that the receipts from ordinary sources
ofrcvenuc for the year 1862, are in excess of
the receipts of the year 1851 one million
thirty thousand one hundred and seventy-six
dollars and eighty-two cents, (the excess OF
interest paid in 1862 over that in 1861 being
Sl44095 81 , and that the ordinary expen-
dtures for 1899 were ninety-five thousand
three hundred and seventeen dollars and
sixteen cents less than the year previous.
The Governor thinks that at least one and
a half millions of dollars can be appropriated
towards the payment of the State debt,
should there be no extraordinary demand
on the Treasury. In regard to the banks the
Governor thinks no more charters should be
granted. He pays a high compliment to the
galantry of our Pennsylvania soldiers.
He also states that the State has now in
possession $4,000 more muskets than at the
commencement of the year. In regard to
our sick and wounded, he has made arrange
ments with the general government to have
them sent home to be nursed. The message
gives gratifying exhibit of the prosperous
condition of the Keystone State.

Of the loss Of the iron-clad steamer Monitor
at sea, by laundering, will be received with
q pang of regret. This gallant little iron
clad vessel had endcared herself to the peo-

appearance in Hampton Roads saved our
