ACCIDENTAL DEATHs.-Wm. II. Hurl-
burt,son of Horace Hurlburt, of St. Johns
bury Centre, came to his death recently,
while at work at Downer's kerosene oil
works, South Boston. He was sent to
clean out the still, and remained there
longer than he should have done, and
was found dead by some one passing,
having been killed by inhaillng the gas
of the still.
"A woman at Essex Junction who
was boiling some kerosene oil few days
since, for use in mixing paint, accident
ally ignited it, and burned herself so
seriously that she died the next day.
The fire communicated to the house and
burned it, with $500 in money. The wo-
mans father was so affected by the affair
that he attempted to commit suicide.

LOYAL SOLDIER REMovED.-The Wash
ington correspondent of the Boston Ad-
vertiser says that it seems to be the in
tention of the President to arrange the
organization of the regular army even,
in the interest of his policy. A few days
ago, upon the earnest recommendations
of Gems. Thomas, Sherman and Grant,
Mr.. johnson appointed Brigadier Gen
eral Charles Howard, brother of Major
General Howard, major in one Of the
new cavalry regiments, and the appoint
ment was duly announced. Brigadier-
General Howard enlisted as private,
and serving with distinction throughout
the war, rose to his present grade. He
has been three times severely wounded
and his whole record is brilliant one.
A certain Captain Merriam of Maine
regiment, entirely unknown at the War
Once, except that his name is borne on
its rolls, wrote letter to Mr.. Johnson,
saying that he heartily endorsed his pol
icy, and asking for Gen. Howard's place
The President at once wrote on the note
"Let Capt. Merriam be appointed in place
of Gen. Howard" and the General was
thus summarily removed. Many of Mr.
Johnson's own friends are indignant al
this outrage.

DEMOCRATIC ApvIGE.-A democrat re-
Gently wrote to the Burlington Sentinel
democratic paper) and that paper pub
lished, the following advice to the "un-
terrified" in this State:
"It is fact that cannot be contro-
verted or explained away, that a few
leading democrats in this and other
States were really copperheads, and not
democrats, and that they have had too
much influence in our councils, and by
their spirit, acts and opposition to the
government, brought the democratic
party into disgrace and hopeless minor
ity. These unwise and unsound persons
in the democratic party, should now
stand aside, and abdicate in favor of such
men and democrats as Mr.. Johnson.
The only way the democracy can gain
confidence and power again with the
people, is to drop these copperhead dem
ocrats from their councils and ofhcial
stations, and Put forward other men
who can defend with clear record our
principles and relieve the party from the
national ban Of disloyalty."

A STRING OF PEARLs-Sheridan's dis
patches from New Orleans have stirred
up the Union Springs (Ala.) Times to
the utterance Of the following moreeau :
Butler turned thief at the start !;
Turchin was natural born imp Of per-
dition; Thomas has displayed a re-
markable aptitude for giving white peo-
Piles churches to his black betters; Sher-
man found ithe torch a more congenial
weapon to his unknightly nature than
the sword Grant tried to be politi-
clan, but failed as signally as when he
attempted to beat Lee fairly; and now
one of the small fry, short-tailed, slimy
tadpole of the latter spawn, the blather-
ing disgrace of an honest father, an ever
lasting libel on his Irish blood, the scorn
of brave men and the synonym of in
fanny, Maj. Gen. Phil. 81. Sheridan, has
added his name to this list of outrages
on humanity.

g The Richmond Times says "if it
(the Johnson party triumphs the best
fruits OF it's victories will be ours !" OF
course they will, and the Southern rebels
and their Northern allies know it full
we'll. They know that the first fruits
will be the unconditional admission of
unrepentant defiant rebels to Congress to
control the legislation Of the country,
and to restore the Southern despotism
in more oppressive form than ever be-
fore. Fortunately for the country-for
the South itself-the johnson party is
not going to succeed. The loyal people
hate treason as bad now as they did in
1861, and they will fight it as earnestly,
whether it emanates clothed in false ap-
parel from Philadelphia, or in the more
honest and manly form of bombardlng
Fort Sumter. The people are loyal, and
as President johnson says, "the gov
ernment In their hands Is safe" It
will be a long time before the Richmond

A GREETING TO Mr. JoHNsoN.-The
President seems to take it for granted
that every man in the crowds gathered
along his route is an enthusiastic sup
porter Of his policy. Perhaps his con-
viction received a slight shock at the
sight of an enormous banner which
some loyal citizen-disposed, perhaps,
in Mr.. Johnson's OWE phrase, "to be
facetious, had hung over the route of
the procession at the corner of Maiden
Lane and Broadway, New York. 1t bore
in emphatic capitals these words:
"Show me the man who makes war on
the government and fires on its vessels,
and I will show you traitor. If
were President of the United States /
would have all such arrested, and when
tried and convicted, by the Eternal God
would have them hung.

the cross bar, thills, &C., and sent the

in the air, aud left Frank Newton, who

the road. Newton was uninjured, and

nately,

GEN. LOGAN AND THE PREsIDINT.-A
Washington correspondent gives the fol-
lowing incident which happened in that
city recently:
A little incident related of Gen. Logan
and the President will we'll illustrate the
passionate determination of the latter.
When Logan was here last, he called at
the White House and obtained private
interview with Mr.. johnson. 1t was a
couple of days before he spoke in denun-
citation of the Presidential course. The
Illinois soldier expostulated with the
Tennessee executive as to the policy of
the latter, assuring him of his mistake,
and declaring the people generally op-
posed to his policy. This the President
doubted. Gen. Logan, with friendly but
emphatic language, assured him that the
West was determined that the South
should not come back except on their
terms. The West would not submit to
less. "By God !" was Mr.. Johnson's in
soent reply, II will make them. They
shall submit" "Mr. President, they
won't do it," said Gen. Logan; "not
even If in resisting the attempt they
have to hang you and jeff Davis on the
same tree" OF course, the interview
was abruptly terminated. Andrew John
son continues his attempt at the con-
summation of ''my policy" and John A
Logan is at work on the prairies rousiDg
the people with that sense Of danger
which the accidental President has con-
trived to arouse in the breast of every
earnest man with whom he has come in
contact,

T AS specimen of the conserva-
tive Republicans who are receiving ap-
pointments to office from the President,
the case of Mr.. Kinsella, the editor of
the Brooklyn Eagle, may be cited. Mr..
Kinsella has recently been appointed
Postmaster of Brooklyn, N. Y, in place
of a Union man, removed. When Mr.
Lincoln made the first call for seventy.
five thousand troops, after the attack
upon Fort Sumter, this KeDsella pub.

not be obtained and that the first fight
ing would be in the streets of Northern
cities.

ANOTHER SUPPRESSED DIsPATcH.-
The New Orleans correspondent of the
New York Tribune says the following
was among the dispatches sent to Gen,
Grant by Gen. Sheridan, and which was
not published with the others:
HEADQUARTERS MILITARY DIVISION
OF THE GULF, Aug. 8, 1866. !
To General .. S. Grant, Washington, D. c.:
The Military Board called by General
Baird to investigate the occurrences in
this city of July 80, is progressing as
rapidly as possible. | see in the papers,
by reports of officials here, an attempt
is made to cast blame on the military
for not being present on the 30th ult
There could have been no object in its
being present. except to prevent the po-
lice from perpetrating revolving mas.
sacre. Its absence for this reason, re.
gret. From reports of my own scouts
who saw the affair from first to last from
my own Office, from disinterested and
faithful persons, | believe that at least
nne-tenths of the casualties were perpe

who had been already wounded or killed
by policemen.

"while Doolittle was speaking, Ser

of whiskey to a stupid radical reporter
to pass up to the platform. Of course
he wanted it to be slipped up quietly.

the Democratic way, and holding it up
as high as possible he reached it up over

A LETTER PROM Mr.. WHITTIER.-The
following interesting letter from Mr.
John G. Whittier has been received by
the Secretary of the Republican State
Committee
"AMEsBuRY, 8th mo-, "a, 1866.
Dear Sir II regret that the state of
nv health will not allow me the privil-
ege of accepting the invitation of the Re-
publican State Committee of Massachu-
setts to meet and welcome the Southern
loyalists at Philadelphia the Sd of next
month.
NV heart is with these noble men, who
came up from the hot furnace of rebel
lion without the smell OF its Internal
fires on their garments. | would like to
say to them, and through them to the
people of the States they represent, that
we Weld to none in the desire for the
restoration of these States to their place
in Congress, in the speediest manner
consistent with the safety of the Union,
in other words, whenever the rights OF
all their inhabitants are secured, and the
monstrous inequality of representation
growing out of slavery has been so ad-
iusted that a rebel in South Carolina
shall not have double the political power
of loyal man in one ofthe New England
States. Massachusetts cherishes no ha-
tired towards the South no representa-
tive of hers has withheld his vote from
appropriations for its benefit on Sec
tional grounds; no Massachusetts citi-
zen has hesitated to minister to the ne
cessities of Southern cities under the Ca
lamities of plague or fire; the same
hands that aided the hunted loyalists oi
East Tennessee have been extended to
feed the starving rebels of Savannah
We have desires of revenge to crafty
and where, in the nature of things, we
cannot wholly forget, we are ready tc
forgive, as we would be forgiven.
Trusting that it is not too late for my
