Loss OF THE ANDERsoNvILLE Rec
oRDs.---The rebel records of Ander-
sonville prison, which were captured
by Gen. Wilson in his raid through
Georgia last spring, have either been
lost or stolen. They were furnished
by the War Department to the party
recently sent to AnderSonville to in
ter the remains of the murdered pris
oners for their guidance in discover
ing the names and graves of the de-
ceased soldiers, and as records for
future reference were of great i'm
portance. Suspicion is attached to
the clerk who had than in charge,
who has been arrested, and will be
held until he can satisfactorily ac-
count for their mysterious disap-
pearance.

Special Dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette.
NASHVILLE, Sept. IA tremen-
dous explosion occurred about eleven
and half o'clock this morning on
the Nashville and Northwestern
Road, seven miles from the city.
The train left the depot at ii O'Clock
with one passenger car and two box
ears. The seats were all filled with
passengers. A car loaded with
powder and shells was placed next to
the locomotive. The powder was
ig7ited, as is supposed, by spark
from the locomotive. The explo-
Sion was terrific. The whole train is
a complete wreck. The number of
killed and wounded is not yet known.
a train was promptly dispatched to
the scene of the disaster, but as the
shells continued TO explode, only
five of the sufferers could, be reached
A few Of the dead and wounced
were brought In. A second train
has gone out.

A DESTRUCTIVE HAIL SToRM---A
hail storm recently occurred in Pc
nobscot County, Me-, which in ten OF
fifteen minutes did its work Of des-
truction. The crops were almost
wholly ruined. Wheat, barley, oats
and other grains nearly ready to
harvest, was beaten down, the grain
threshed off and the straw broken
into shreds. Beautiful fields of corn,
in which the town abounded, were
almost totally ruined. The tops of
potatoes were fairly smashed to
pieces by the icy bullets. Garders
of tomatoes, cabbages, beans, DC,
were sorry looking sights. The
value of the crops destroyed is very
great.

kee, who despises sloth, idleness and
inaction, will choose some other spot
upon this beautiful bay or river to build
up new city, that shall take away the
glory from Norfolk and make her heap
of ruins. These speculations are not
idle fancies. Such things have been
and will be again. The Creoles of New
Orleans, after the purchase OF Louisiana,
took every occasion to show and utter
their detestation of the Yankees, and
determined upon the same line of policy
that is threatened here. They refused
to sell any of their lands or to build on
them for the use of "les sacre Yankees"
The result was Americans of enterpris-
ing spirit flocked in from all quarters,
and soon built up magnificent city for
themselves, in which all the business is
now conducted, while the old city is fast
falling to decay. Beware; for history
is full of such examples.

A FEW WORDS OF CAUTION.

Have the class of property holders in
this city, whoseem so determined to pur-
sue the exclusive policy, in regard tothe
lease or sale of their lands, and high
rents, ever thought that their acts might
recoil upon their own heads? They
dream, who think that by this course
they can keep out the hated Yankees,
ana will wake from that dream when it
Is TOO late. They should recollect that
tnere is nothing in this world that a
iankee SO delights in or enjoys as oppo-
sitioh' If he finds himself opposed, he
a'once bucklesto, and will move heaven
ana earth to gain his point, and what's
inofe' he Always gains it. The stronger
the opposition the more delight he takes
in overcoming the obstacles presentedto
tne accomplishment of his wishes. and

sure success. If those people then who
have expressed their determination -
do nothing themselves and to prevent
others from doing anything, have not
discovered this trait in the Yankee char
acter, they have studied the characters
tics of that enterprising and determined
race in vain. They will find that if they
do not bend to the necessities of the
times, and go with the current of pro-
gress, they will be overslaughed by, or
forced along with that current, willing
or unwilling. We warn them in time to
be prepared for such contingency. II
they let 1t be proclaimed that they are
determined to pursue this course, the
Yankees may get angry in which case
these old fogies had better stand
from under. Their old town even may
be passed by, as has often been the
case before, and the inevitable Yam

There has just been a trial between
two of our first-class Monitors, to ascer
tain their sea-going and generalworkine
qualities. The distance chosen was from
Boston to Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
and the vessels were the Dictator and
: Agamenticus. The former vessel is the
largest of the Monitor class in our Navy,
and her construction was commenced
about the same time the timbers of the
Dunderberg were laid, and from hel
name she was intended to be the " die
tator" of the seas. We saw her in New
York on the LIST of September last, few
days before she was finished, and were
astonished at her dimensions and formi
dable appearance-though in these re
spects she does not equal that leviathar
of the deep, the Dunderberg. TIL,
Agamenticus is of the same class ant
construction of the celebrated Mo
nadnock, which behaved SO well at For
Fisher, that it excited the enthusiastic
admiration of Admiral Porter. The
trial was very satisfactory, and although
the Dictator outran her antagonist
which was to be expected from her great
size and the power of her engines, still
the behavior of the Agamenticus was
most admirable. Commodore Rogers
gave dinner to the guests on board the
Dictator, and is reported to have said
With the Dictator and the Agamenti-
Gus can thrash the whole English
iron-clad fleet" There is no necessity
for the Commodore to become so bellig-
erent at present, and we would suggest
that such after-dinner boasts are neither
becoming nor called. for. They detract
from the dignity of the American peo-
ple.
