| VIOLENCE IN LINCoLN-A JUDGE
OF ELECTION Run FROM HoME.-A
gentleman of high character re.
lports to Gen. Cooper, that a Union
man of blameless Christian charac.
ter and universally esteemed, was
appointed a judge of election in
Lincoln county, near Fayetteville.
On the Saturday following several
bushwhackers came to his house,
put pistol to his head, threatened
his life with a volley of oaths
and forced him to leave home
The citizen has wife and three
children, and is now hiding for
his life. There is a troop Of fif-
teen or twenty byshwhackers who
defy the law and commit outrages
on loyal men.-Press Dc Times, 22d.
There is not a syllable of truth
in the above statement. "The
gentleman of high character" sim
ply lied. The "father of three
children did, we are informed,
have a dispute with another cit
izen. Capt. Gresham, of Brown.
lows militia, being here, overhaul
ed the matter, and after a tho
rough investigation, said itamount-
ed to nothing, and dismissed the
case. Yet, two weeks thereafter,
a nameless hbeller-"a gentleman
of high character!!!!!"- attempts
to make political capital out Of the
affair, by wilful lying. There is
not a bushwhacker in this county,
and the gentleman" knew it when
he lodged his slanderous report.
Decent Radicals condemn the cir
culation OF such malicious false
hoods as the gentleman Of high
character" is guilty Of Distrust
and arrangement, which may re-
saltin personal collisions, frequent
ly follow slanderous publications.
And odiupa attaches to the more re-
spectacle members of the proscrip-
tive party, although they may be
innocent of traducing their neigh
bors. Knowing this, they depre-
cate the efforts of the characterless
vagabonds of their League to de-
fame this community.

gz At Albany, New York,
on Thursday, 10Th inst, they had
a red rain, just as they sometimes
have red snow in Switzerland
and elsewhere. Cause.-The infu-
serial shells, or parts of plants
and insects which, in the tropics,
are carried up two or three miles
high into the atmosphere by the
winds and waited hither where
they descended with failing
weather" There was a time when
general superstition would have
invested such a phenomenon with
all the attributes,of a preternatu-
raj monition and made it the fore
runner of "war, pestilence, and
famine" or some other calamity.

ment we simply note the phe-
