SO much upon the character of the Presi-

curious one for a Democratic newspaper

The society this winter in Washington
has been largely made up of Southerners,
many of them unrepenting rebels, as in
solent and arrogant as ever, making no
secret of their secession proclivities. One

drapad over the entrance into the draw

of our Northern ladies are treating these
rebel women with all possible courtesy.

fallacy of the position taken by the Presi-

they might consider themselves politi-

From the Canton Republican:
The NJ. E. Church in this city was the
scene of immense excitement for q short
time time on last Monday night during
the hour of service. Just as the first
hymn was being sung some n entered
and announced that the church was on
fire. In an instant the mouths of the
singers were closed and a grand rush was
made for the door. The house was full
and in n moment the aisles were iammed
in such a manner that it was almost I'M
possible for any save those in the imme-
date vicinity of the door to get out. In
vain some of the less excited of the au-
dience tried to calm the fears Of the crowd
by telling them that there was no danger
and plenty of time for all to escape. After
the excitement ragged for considerable
time, and people had crowded each other
almost to death and fell over almost in
Vulnerable seats, &c, it was found that
nothing but one of the fues was on fire
and emitting sparks freely. The people
Gained down and the service proceeded.
The P. Fit. w. * G. R. W. Company
and the authorities of Canton are at the
'outs.' A city ordinance forbids-the run
nlng of trains within the city limits at a
greater speed than twelve miles an hour.
The road runs within the limits nearly
two miles n the company complain
that they loose ten minutes time on every
train which passes through. The railway
company, in order to rid themselves of
this annoyance, threaten to remove their
track outside the city limits, and are act
ually engaged in surveying a new route
south of the city, at a distance of twenty
seven hundred feet south Of the present
track.
