general family use it cannot be excelled by

hereafter. We call upon the Sentinel
and its friends to meet us in this dis
cussion in such spirit as will produce
good to the State. Let us discard pre-
judice and passion. Let every consid-
Grafton of personal or political advan-
tage be forgotten. Let as think Of moth
ing but the best means ofrestoring the
State to the Union.
The Sentinel asks us if the Washing
ton Chronicle is correct in saying that
we have declared the Presidents plan
Ga failure" 1t is not correct. The
Presidents plan has our approval. We
were engaged seven months in trying
to carry it out. We are committed to
it by every consideration of interest
and honor. 1t is ga failure" only so
far as the people of the States have not
carried it out. There is no fault in the
plan. The fault is in the people who
have not carried it out. 1t was success
full in this State up to November, 1865.
1t may be successful hereafter, if taken
up and carried out in good faith. If we
will do this we will at once infuse new
life into the prospects of the State, and
render the President invincible in his
contest with his enemies.

We had the pleasure on Tuesday
last, of conversing with Gen. Steedman
and Gen. Fullerton, who are on tour
through the South, by direction Of the
President, to gather information in re-
lation to the condition of the country,
and especially with reference to the
operation of the -Freedman's Bureau.
A number of our citizens called on these
officers at Yarborough's, and much i'm
portant information was no doubt elic-
tied. Those who called on and con-
versed with them, were impressed with
their courteous bearing and with the
enlarged and liberal national feeling
which they manifested in their con-
versation.

The duty of the troops at Salisbury was heavy,

the guard placed round outside the prison was an
additional guard placed there by witness-if Maj
Gee had asked for more men they could have
been furnished, as there were 1,2OQ or l, 400 men
there, and all the prisoners had not arrived while
witness was in command At first 160 were de-
tailed per day, and afterwards 800 were asked for
There was nothing elected further, in the cross
examination of this Witness than had been testi-
fed to by Others, except that he put the wood
lands where timber could be got, a little nearer
to the prison than some others, but stated that it
was not suitable for building stockade and was
private property.
In answer to question in the redirect examin-
alton, the witness stated that according to the
reports in thacase of the shooting Lieut.. Davis,
there was no ground for Furnishing the sentinel
who shot him-described this sentinel, and gave
his name as Belch, from llertford or BERTHE coun-

What say the Sentinel and its friends ?
If any of them be in the way, what
should be done? Let them answer.

The Iast new I OrK He7ttW says:
"The President has lately defined his po-
sitien to few friends in a manner which
brings him closer to the republican Congress.
While he insists, as he always has insisted,
that the Southern States are States of the
Union he acknowledges that only such men
as can take the test oath should be admitted
to represent those States in Congress. He
has not retrograded an inch from his original
position that "loyal men should govern a
preserved republic" The question of the
modification of the test oath, about which
the President is understood to hold a con-
servative opinion, will come up afterwards" !"

A terrible scene was witness ed in Ann

seen rushing into the street. 1t appears
that Mr.. r. Crawford who was employed in
the oil and paint store of Messrs. u. and s.
Crawford, AZ, Ann street, went into the
vault under the store to get small quaint
ty Of benzine, when the fluid took fire from
| lighted lamp which he carried in his hand
and exploded. The burning benzine was
scattered upon his face and clothing, and
the flames soon covered nearly his entire
body. Crawford losing his elf-possession,
rushed into the street, was soon foil lowed by
q crowd, and had to be knocked down, so
as to cover him and subdue the flames. He
was rolled into the gutter, and the flames
were extinguished. The poor fellow was
taken to the store, where his body was found
was procured, and hopes of his recovery
are entertained by his friends.
