A THRILLING SCENE Tho Portsmouth, N.
II ChronicIe aaua..

II. Chronicle, says:
On Sunday, as the firo in tho woods at Ce-
dar Swamp was at its height. an extra train
of sixteen cars. bringing the l4th Maine reg.
iment, on their way home to Augusta, cam o
over the Eastern Railroad. Gu either side
of the track tho flames rose forty feet high,
the noise drowning the sound of the train.
1t was fearful sight to behold. The oil on
the wheels took fire, and along the train
were seen revolving wheels of fire,while the
Ians l4th were nearly smothered in the dense
smoke. Fortunately the long train drawn by
the Cape Ann went through the ordeal with
out accident, and, as the cars emerged be-
yond tho burning district, the smoke rushed
from the car windows into the air, giving
an appearance Of q train on fire.

is more common than TO hear people talk of
what they pay newspapers for advertising.
&C., as so much given in charity:
Newspapers by enhancing the value of
property in their neighborhood, and giving
the localities in which they are Published q
reputation abroad, benefit all snch, particu-
larly If they are merchants or real estate
owners. thrice the amount yearly of the
meagre sum they pay for their support. Be-
sides, every public spirited citizen has a
laudable pride in having a paper of which
he is not ashamed. even though he shouli

good looking thriving sheet helps to sell

and possesses the fullest confidence, as he
has enjoyed the highest honors that the peo-
pie of Virginia can bestow, had an interview
recently with President johnson, of which
he thus speaks in private letter to the edi-
tor:
"Mr. johnson received me kindly and
courteously; his manner was frank, and his
sentiments liberal and conciliatOry. He earn
estly desires TO see the reorganization speed
lily effected, and, if we meet him in a spirit
as kind as his own, | am satisfied he will
prove himself true friend to us. 1t is the
part of wisdom and duty, so to bear .ourselv-

The state convention of Mississippi, and
Governor Perry, of South Carolina, have re-
the conYention, in passing an ordinance rec
ognizing the abolition of slavery, and forbid
ding its establishment, and directing the
legislature to provide for the protection of
freedmen, has done much towards silencing
the clamor that the south intends, when ad-
mitted to the Union. TO return the blacks to
slavery. Governor Perry, in his late speech
III Greenville, gave such a cheering account
of the willingness of the people Of the state to
accept the Union and faithfully obey its au-
thority, that the pretence that the rebel
states cannot be trusted with local govern
ments yet cannot longer be maintained with
any degree of plausibility. The temper
shown by the south is better than could have
been reasonably hoped for, and very nearly
all that could be desired by the Unionist.-
As it becomes more plainly apparent every
day that she is acting in entire good faith,
the hopes of abolitionism sink. 1t wishes for
no earthly thing as heartily as the prevalence
of factious, seditious spirit in the southern
states. Fortunately for them and the coun-
try, 1t ia doomed to disappointment in this
wish.
