The FenianS.

The latest news from Europe fills us with
apprehensions with reference to our noble
impulsive and high spirited Irish friends.
There arc many indications that they are on
the eve Of another badly matured and, we
fear, rash attempt to rid themselves of Eng
lsh domination. There seems to be immi-
nent peril of collision between the Fenians
and the Government Bold demonstrations
by the former have been m ade in Tipperary,
Limerick, Cork and Kerry, in which counties
there are said to be at least fifty thousand
Fenians, or sworn soldiers of s'the Irish Re-
public" "a "Republic," by the way, which
the dilapidated Palmerston and that diplo-
matte old fox, Lord John Russell, will be as
slow to recognize as they were "the South
ern Confederacy."

Railroad and Steamboat Slaughter.

The New York Times publishes summa-
ny of the losses of life and wounding of per-
sons which have taken place in the United
States within the last five months, and which
have been attributed to "accident." 1t en-
braces railroad and steamboat s!aughters,
boiler explosions, gunpowder explosions, fall
ing down of buildings, and other catastrophes
of the like, which are usually declared to have
been unavoidable but most Of which, it may
be assumed. might have been prevented by
the adoption of proper precautions. Accord
Jog to this statement, in five months 1881
persons were killed, and 955 wounded in the
United States, by what are called accidents
IF we allow the sam proportion during the
year. we have 1852 killed, and 1924
wounded, a truly frightfui aggregate.
The Alexandria Gazette says that it is
stated that in Germany since the beginning
Of the railroad system, twenty or thirty years
ago, not life has been lost in consequence
|of carelessness Or mismanagement on the
part of railroad agents. Surely a system
which has this result deserves to be particu-
larly studied in the U. S. We do not know,
however, that studying the matter would do
any good-because in this country there is
an ultraism in railroads, as there is in poll
tics-and both seem to be destructive.

A large portion of the army viii bear me witness
to aceeks, if not months spent in the hospitals, at
Orange and Louisa C. H., Guinea Station, Mill

and the no small qualification issmine, to meet,
fire quently the soldier who remembers kindness
rendered him, under circumstances of this kind,
or to receive a letter from the surviving friend,
expressing gratitude for attentions bestowed on a
deceased son, brother or husband. Has "Citi

might have been an admirable nurse in a hospital,
or clerk in some military Office after making the
discovery he was unfit for any thing else, but he
preferred being loafer in town. With no dis
pos tion to boast, l may say my house and purse
were at all times open to the soldier, and all my
earnings, beyond the maintenance of large fam
lily, went to the benefit of the army, and the ref

Mr.. EDITOR 81 am glad to see that MIR. Jos.

in your last paper, that / is willing to serve the
people of this county in the Legislature, and that
he would feel highly honored to be chosen as one
of the Representatives for this County. His card
has the ssring of the right metaP'--he has not
sought the office and would not value it except as
the free-wil offering of the people. To obtain 1t
by sdint of electioneering', or by wire worklng,
or by button holding every voter, and mportuning
him for his support, would deprive success of all
its honor. This is time when, if ever 'sthe Of
flee should seek the man, and not the man the office"
Mr.. Waddell has all the requisites of good Rep
resentative. He is strictly honest, and faithful,
and attentive to all business entrusted to him
he is well educated, and has a good mind well
disciplined; he is well info rmed and understands
the duties Of Legislator. The best men should
be selected to represent the county at this time
The Legislature should be an able body, for there
is can immense quantity of difficult head work to
be performed-there is conflict between the
Constitutions to harmonize-two radically differ
ent systems Of laws are to be made uniform-a

barrassments of the most complicated nature to
be relieyed in sh ort, questions will daily pre-
sent themselves demanding for their correct solu-

other reasons, the election Of Mr.. Wadden is de-
sired by A VOTER.

if Representatives from the Southern States
are admitted to seats in Congress, slavery
will be re-established, or encouraged, secess-

MacFarland Delegation the other day, said, ssthe

There many persons in our Congressional
District, who believe that the language, sstho-
roughly loyal, has peculiar significance, and
could take the oath prescribed by the Congress Of
1862.
1t is evident that President johnson did not
mean any thing of the kind, for he has so much
conf dence in Mr.. Stuarts loyalty and patriotism,
