COACH OvERTURNED-THREE PER-
SONS KILLED.

On Friday last, the 10th, one of the
stage coaches of tho line of Messrs
Hawkes. & Co., running between CO.
lumbus and Lancaster, was overturned
short distance this side of Winches-
ter, almost instantly killing Col. Al
FRED McVEIcu of this city, breaking
both thighs of his son, "a child seven
years of ago. causing his death in q
few hours, and so severely injuring a
lady named HENKLE, MS to cause her
death on Monday last.
The remains of Col. McVeigh and
son were brought down on Saturday
and buried on Sunday afternoon, both
in one grave, in the cemetery east of
the city. Tho funeral sermon was
preached by the Rev. G. A. VAN
ANDA-(the third double funeral at
which he has officiatcd dnrng the
past year)-and tho Masonic Fratcr-
nifty, of which Col McVcigh was a
prominent mcmber, consigned his re.
mains to the grave, with the beautiful
and impressive burial service of the
Order. A large number of his Ma
sonic brethren from the surrounding
cities and country attended the func-
Tal, and great concoursc of friends
and citizens filled the large church to
Ovcrhowing, and accompanied the re-
mains to the grave.
1t is impossible to express the
shock which the community received
from this distressing and sudden kill
ing of Col. McVEIdH. The reflection
that it might have been avoided, and
that tho company and its employees
are culpable, has created no little in
dignation, and has added to the shock
ing character of the calamity. The
coach being overloaded and top
heavy, having twelve persons inside
and eleven persons with five or six
trunks on tho top, was easily over
turned. Passengers differ as to the
culpability of the driver, somc assert
ing that he was intoxicated, and others
that he was not but they agree, we
believe, in stating that ho was driving
rapidly and recklessly when the
coach went over. The citizens along
this line will hereafter demand more
regard for their safety and comfort. For
years we have seldom had on the line
bctweenthis and Columbus anything
but overloaded, old and worn out
coaches, and the wonder is, consider
ing the frequent ovcrturnings and
break-downs, that more fatal accidents
have not occurred.
Col. McYeigh was riding on the
outside Of the coach holding his son
between hiskuees. 1t is thought that
his effort to save his son threw him
under the coach. He received Sc.
we're blow in the head from one of tho
falling trunks, was badly cut and
crushed, and died in few minutes,
withoutspeaking. tCh

Lieut. colonel Ebrlgnt reported Killed.

The State Journal of this morning
contains dispatch stating that " Col.
G. Bright, of the 126th Regiment" is
reported killed. An editorial notice
states that Lieut.. COL EBRIGHT was
killed in tho late baltic in the Shon-
andoah Valley. We learn that Lieut..
Col. Ebright's friends doubt the report,
and we sincerely hope it may prove
untrue.

Tho noticeable business ia both Houses ou
June : st.. WAS the agreement % the report OF the
Committee o.; Conference ON the Bank Bill. No
doubt is exuressel AS 10 the signature Of the bill
by the President doubtless It Will soon become
a law The report on the subject to the assocla-
ted press. Is as follows:
The diagreeing amendments Of the two llous
es Of Congress 20 the Bank Bill have been ad-
iustel. The Senate recedei from its amendment,
limiting the amount 10 500, 900 900, to apply
either To the notes for circulation, or to amount
Of capital stock. The former branch Of the pro-
position only is therefore retained The City oi
Washington l. included among the places OF re-
dempti0n The circulation Of tie banks, IN heu
Of all existing taxes Is taxed one-hali OF one per
cent. and deposits one-fourth Of one per cent,
semi annually, and similar tax Is imposed on
capital m excess Of United States bonds
Nothing in the act is to be construed to pre-
vent all the shares in any of the associations
held by anv person or body corporate from beng
included in the relation of their personal property
IN the assessment Of taxes imposed by or under
State authority at the place where the bank IS
located. and not elsewhere; but not greater
rate than Is assigned on other moneyed capital
in the hands Of individual citizens Of such State,
provided that the tax imposed by the laws OF
anv state on the shares Of any of the associa-
tons, authorized by the set, shall not exceed
the rate imposed upon the shares IN any Of the
banks organized under the authority Of the
State where such associations IS located.
This amended National Bank bill having now
passed both Houses, will undoubtedly receive
signature Of the President. Its main features
are the same as those Of the original act The
principal changes are
First No banks can he organized with less
capital than 100000 in small towns, and
500, 900 in cities with population of over
5000.
2i, Banks must redeem at par all National
Banks in certain designated places regarded as
commercial centress
Sd. None but registered bonds can be re-
ceived as securities for circulation, and the
necessary memorandum on these can be signei
by an officer of the Bank or by the Comptroll-
er
Complete forms of all kinds to correspond
with the new bill will be Immediately prepared
by the Comptroller.
