Fatal, ACCIDENT.

We have seldom been called upon to record o
more melancholy and sorrowful accident than that
which terminated the life of our young friend,
PRESTON BELoHER, youth of extraordinary fair
promise and irreproachable character. But few
days since he left this place for Abbeyile, to re-
sumo his studies at school, and Friday met with
tragic fate. In wrestling with younger BROTH
er, q loaded pistol was discharged, and the con-
tents were lodged in the abdomen, from the effects
of which he died on Sunday morning His re-
mains were brought home on Monday last, and
Tuesday afternoon the funeral sermon was deliv-
cred at the Baptist Church, where large con-
course of citizens attescd their respect for this
noble youth, and evinced their sympathy with the
distressed family in this sad bereavement. The
sermon on the occasion was most impressive and
instructive and when the simple story of comfort
ing Faith was repeated, there were few souls in
the vast congregation that would not have ex-
claimed, ssLet me die the death of the righteous,
and may my last end be like his!" The pail
bearers, twelve in number, were classmates and
comrades of the deceased, and We humbly trust
that this solemn and striking dspensation of Prov
| ldence may rebound TO Ills glory IN bringing each
of these friends to the feet of Jesus 1.-The re-
mains of PRESTON we're inferred in the Baptist
graveyard.
In oil the relations Of life, this young man was
held in justly high esteem. Possessed of kindly
nature, the promptngs of his heart were ever gen.
erous noble and true and wherever known he
won friends and admirers by his gcntlemanly de-
pertinent and urbane conduct. But above all this,
we have the consolation that in death he rejoiced
in the hope of ,blesscd Immortality beyond the
grave May the dcws of Heaven gently, lovingly
! bedew the sod above him

@THE SITUATION"

The news from Washington indicates positive
difference of opinion between the two Houses Of
Congress, or rather between the Republican party
of both Houses. The Senate has refused to accede
to that section of the 'plan" adopted by the Re-
construction Committee which dsfranchises all
participants in the late socalled rebellion until
| 1870. This section has been declared by THAD.
STEVENS to be "the substance" of the proposed
plan, and the refusal on the part of the Republi-
can Senators is ominous that the work of disinte-
grafton is about to be commenced. However, the
South may look on with complacency, and the old
adage may yet be verified, "When rogues fall
outs &c.
The Fenians have at last broke ground for an
onslaught upon the British They have invaded
Canada, but the demonstration is too feeble to at
tract any great share of public attention. Fort
Erie, opposite Buffalo, has been taken by the Fe-
mans, and the English troops in Canada have been
surprised into one or two unimportant skirmishes
The dispatches in our daily exchanges too con-
ficting to be relied upon, and remind US of the
unreliable kilograms which flooded the country du-
ring the late civil war. We have, therefore, omit
ted their publication. This movement of the Fe-
mans is entirely spasmodic, and will shortly come
to grief and that, too, in most summary manner.
European advices breathe strongly of war upon
sthe continent" The Emperor Of the French re-
Gently took occasion, while q visit to Auxerre,
one of the most loyal Napoleonic towns in France,
to utter his dctestation and disregard of the trea
ties of 1915. Thereupon, financial panic cnsues,
and the commercial and bourgeois classes of Paris
are thrown into CONSERVATION. The Emperor's
declarations are understood to mean a rcsuscita-
ton of the empire as it stood prior to expulsion
from important dominions, and an attempt to re-
viye the fortunes of the Napoleon family which
went down in gloom Mt Waterloo His contempt
for those treaties indicates war, and revival of
the policy which shall declare France rs the armed
dictator of the continent Marcngo and Auster-
lz are not forgotten, and this appeal to the bone
and sinew of The French people shows that the
mad ambition, which ruled the first NAPOLEON, has
found lodgment in the breast of his astute me-
phcw. In the meantime the powers of Europe
are preparing for bloody conflict

FROM WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, June 4.-The Postmaster General
has sent a communication to the Senate against
the proposed plan of united telegraph lines with the
postal system. He says: "As.the result of my in
vestgations, do not think it wise for the Govern
ment to inaugurate the proposed system; not only
because of its doubtful financial SUCCESS, but of its
questionable feasibility under our postal system"
The fourth and fifth sections of the reconstruc-
tion resolution PASSED the Senate by atwo-thirds
vote. The radicals voted down several amend
mcnts of the conservatives. Mr.. Hendricks de-
nounced the proceedings extraordinary and
unjust, and that the people would never endorse
| them. Born in caucus, the proposition was for
the political necessities of party, not for the in
terests of the country. The Senate adjourned
without final action.
In the House, the resolution of Mr.. Williams,
calling on The President to inform the House
whether any Government employees in the South
have in any way countenanced public honors to
living and dead Confederates; also whether the
privilege of honorng the graves of Union soldiers
has been in any instance denied by the authorities
with the acquescence of the officers of the Govern
ment. Ine reSolueioh mas PaeSeu tnouSh uuuei

TRIAL OF JEFFEasoN DAVIS.

RICHMOND, June 3.-The Unitetl States District
Court meets here tomorrow. Judge Underwood
is expected to preside. James 7. Brady, of New
York; w. B. Read, of Philadelphia George
Brown, of Baltimore, associate counsel for Jeffer.
son Davis, are here. Charles O'Connor and
George Shea will arrive in day or two: The
counsel will announce their readiness for the trial.
and in the event of postponemcnt will apply for
bail. Major Hennessey, Assistant District Attor-
ney, will represent the Government. Burton N.
Harrison, the former Secretary of cx~Presdcnt
Davis, is here ;
RICHMOND, juno 4.-Judgc Underwood has not
arrived, and therefore there is no Court to-day.
Eminent lawyers express the opinion that the nd
iournment of the Circuit Court from Norfolk to
Richmond, after the indictment of Jefferson Davis
was unauthorized by law, and hence the order Of
adjournment is nullity; if correct, the only ac-
ton of tie Court will be to discharge the grand
jury. Under the recent Act of Congress, the
Chief Justice may order special term of the
Court to be held in Richmond, before which the
trial of Davis may be demanded, or a motion for
bail submitted; but no such order has been issued.

THE TH1RTY.F1RsT OF MAY.

The observance of this day in Richmond was O
spontaneous gathering of the citizens at Hollywood
cemetery, where thousands ofthat brave army
which encircled Richmond with q wall of defence
for so long time. The ladies of Virginia, ever
foremost when that army needed succor or atten-
ton, united in grand demonstration in honor Of
the heroic dead. The graves of STUART, Nor
GAN, ARCHER, PEGnAM, and host of others less
known to fame, were decorated in the most be-
coming manner. The Richmond Tines, in lengthy
account of the ceremonies, has the following:
at must carry CLEAN of joy to many far-off
home to learn that the iombs of their loved ones,
who fell in the cause of the South and now sleep
in Hollywood, received from the women of Virginia
all the honor which love and gratitude could be-
stow"
All honor and praise to these fair women, who
have. thus consecrated the rcsting-place of our
loved comrades and friends ! -

ROLL OF HoNoR.

Tie proprietor of this journal proposes, during
this summer, to publish neat and convenient
pamphlet, which shall contain the rolls Of all the
companies raised in Anderson District for the Con-
federate service during the late war. In order to
perpetuate the names of the men who participated
in our struggle for independence, the cooperation
of all officers and men who may have the desired
information in their possession is earnestly So
licited. Those having original rolls of companies
or detachments will confer favor by sending tho
same without delay to this Office stating opposite
each name the death or discharge of the individual,
if this occurred. Where died, when and by reasoE
of wounds received in battle, sickness or other
wise And any other information which will make
up the individual history of the soldiers of Ander-
son District. The Importance of this enterprise is
suggested by the factthat there is no official record
of the same in existence, and this will supply the
people with correct history Of each man Who
perilled life in their cause. Though that cause be
forever lost, there is duty we owe to dead,
and the living also that should be performed while
participants in the grand struggle are Jet fresh in
their recollections of comrades. The work will be
executed in the best style of Typography, and will
be sold at the bare cost of publication. The as
sistance of our friends and late comrades is cor
daily invited in this undertaking.

Important information will then be given, and we
hope for full attendance of all interested in the
completion of this splendid enterprise. The pros
perity of Anderson is intimately connected with
this Road, and though the war interfered with the
project, we think it safe to declare that the Air
Line may yet prove the harbinger of return to
former advancement and progress. AT any, rate,
the effort is worthy of attention, and the people
will be enlightened by attendance upon the stock

sALFDAy. CROPS, &C.

The attendance of farmers last Monday was
equal to our expectations, considering the busy
season Of the year. From those with whom we
conversed, the report comes up that the wheat
crop will prove average one, while corn is pro-
missing enough. Bad stands of cotton, with over
plus of grass in the fields continues to be the re-
port.
There was very little business transacted on
Monday, owing doubtless to depleted purses and
uncertain prospects.

10 TBE WoMEN OF THE SOUTH.

Richmond is begirt with an army of Confederate
dead The hallowed precincts of our cemeteries are
rendered still more sacred by their graves-to be
counted by tens of thousands of martyred heroes;
around us were bloody battle-felds, and here were
the most crowded hospitals. The dead of both
are sleeping in Hollywood and 0akwood. Not
alone the fallen of Virginia are buried here. Your
loved and lost brave and chivalrous spirits, whom
we, TOO, learned to love, repose side by side with
ours. The greater proportion of your best and
ybrayest young men, chccrod by your blessings and
strengthened by your prayers, came to Virginia to
battle for our common cause.
Many, oh ! how many of them fell on battle
fields or died in our hospitals-the victims of dis
ease engendercd by the exposures of arduous cam
paigns?
There is no country upon whose roll of honor
shall be inscribed the names of the Confederate
dead They died for and with their cause.
Their courage and devotion obtained the plaudits
of admiring nations But it is the recollection of
their suferiugs, their patience and their untimely
end, that most tcnderly endears their memory to
us. Dying, they left us the guardianship of their
graves 1t is grateful service, due alike to them
and to their surviving friends. Let us keep green
the turf above their heads and build monuments to
mark for generations yet to come the place Of their
repose.
b a society has been formed in the city of Rich
mond entitled "The Memorial Association"
The objects of this Society arc to collect funds
to be applied in enclosing, arranging, returning,
and otherwise placing in order, the graves of the
Confederate dead inferred in the cemeteries of
Richmond, so that the names of our fallen soldiers
may be permanently preserved from oblivion, and
their last resting gplaces saved from the slightest
appearance of neglect or want of care.
All persons who make donations for the purpose
of carrying out the objects of this Society are en-
rolled as members of the same.
We would respectfully suggest to the ladies of
the South to form auxiliary societies, cooperating
with US IN carrying out the objects above stated.
AS soon as such societies formed, it is hoped
they will correspond with this Association. Let
tiers may be addressed and contributions sent to
Mrs. WM. H. MCFARLAND, President.
