Death of Gen. Thomas Francis
Meagher.


ADenyer dispatch announces that
Gen. Thomas Francis Meagher was
accidentally drowned at Fort Ben
ton on the 1st instant. During the
war General Meagher commanded
the famous Irish brigade, recruited
in New York {; and at Gaines Mills,
Antietam and, in fact through
out the campaigns of the Army of
the Potomac he won high reputa-
ton for gallantry. He first became
known to the world through his con-
nection with the ill-fated attempt at
revolution in Ireland in 194S, in con,
sequence of which he was condemn
ed to long term of penal servitude.
He made his escape after a short
time, however. and taking up his
residence in this country, married
the daughter of wealthy patent
medicine manufacturer. Soon after
the commencement Of the rebellion,
he obtained a commission as Briga-
dier General, and serving with dis
tinction to the end, was appointed
| Secretary Of Montana something
over a year ago. Lately he has been
Acting Governor of that Territory,
and has been actively engaged in or
ganizing volunteers for service
against the Indians. He was at Fort
Benton on official business, when he,
through some accident, fell from
the deck of a steamer, in the evening
and was drowned.-C Cincinnati Com !.

Struggle with q Snake.

A few days since, the Marion
Mirror says, the. wife of Mr. VIM
Richardson, of Waldo Township,
missing her little boy, went out in
the garden to hunt him. To her
horror, she saw the little fellow Us
months old) literally enveloped in
the folds of monster snake. Her
cries did not reach the father, who
was at work in neighboring field,
and seeing her boy black with strang-
ulation, she heroically seized the
snake in her hands and tore it loose.
No sooner was he loose, however,
than he made for the mother fero-
ciously, and coiled himself about ier
person, attempting to strang1e her,
as he did the boy. She again seized
him, and disengaged herself from
him, and killed him with an axe
The little child was swelled up for
several days, but has fully recovered.
The snake was what is called the
'sblue racer which does not bite but
strangles, and measured about ten
feet. We have the statement from
Mrs. R. herself. and it may be relied
On as strictly true. 1t is one Of the
most shocking affairs we ever heard
narrated, and as she relates it, it
would make your blood run cold.

Gen. Longstreet's Letter.

o General Longstreet says he did.
not intend to coincide with the Rad
icals in his letters on. Reeonstruc-
ton, but only meant toutter the sem
timents and Recommendations which
he deemed best adapted to promote
the interests of the Southern people
his brethren This is additionaltes7
timony to the justice and wisdom Of
the Reconstruction law passed by
Congress, which General Longstreet
advised the people to cheerfullys
NIT to and adopt And the .testi-
mony is the stronger, because indi-
rect, and coming from one who has
no personal partiaIities for Congress
which created the law, or for the
party which approves it. General
Longstreet's, statement also con-
firms the position that we have long
ago taken, viz: that the Republican
Union party are the best friend that
the Southern people have, while their
recreant cid political leaders have
deserted them, and the Democratic
party that they too much trusted
has first attempted, for its own ends,
to cheat them, and failing in that,
has dropped them with contempt
If the Southern people will listen to
General Longstreet's counsel, and
conform to the just requirements of
the laws Of Congress, their path will
be straight. short and safe to their
proper position in the Union.--Pitts-
burg Commercial. aoE

When will We Vote With the
Democracy.

A Democratic friend (who by the
way, was a candidate) recently very
kindly offered US several reasons why
we should votethe Democratic ticket
the most forcible of which was that
he was deal older than ourself,
and it was natural born in him to
vote that ticket. In order that our
friend may labor under no miscon-
ception of our intentions, we hereby
inform him that we will vote the
Demo cratic ticket.
l. When said party proves salts
factorily to us that it was the party
who voted supplies to support us
while fighting rebels.
2. When it convinces US that it is
not the party that organized the
knights of the Golden Circle in op-
position to the interests of the Gov
ernment during the late rebellion.
3. When it satisfies us that it was
loyal men who organized to resist
the draft in Noble and Holmes conn
ties, in 1865.
4. w hen 1t demonstrates TO our
satisfaction that it's leader Valland-
ingham, was patriot, laboring in
behalf of the Union.
5. When it convinces us that il
did not rejoice over the dead body
of every loyal soldier who fell in de
fence of his country.
s6. When it causes us to believe
that it is now the friend Of all hon.
orably discharged soldiers.
Z. When it substantiates its
charges that Abraham Lincoln was
a thief and a tyrant.
s. Whan it proves to us that its
friend, Booth, was a gentleman, and
was justifable in the assassination
of the President.
8. When it convinces us that il
is not the party that advocated Sc

which cost the lives Of half a mil
lion of people.

SANTA ANNA, name familiar to
all readers of Mexican history, has
had his summons to "join the innum-
cradle caravan" His career has
been an extraordinary one, full of
inconsistencies remarkable even in a
Mexican, and of adventures true ac-
counts of which read like romance.
It will be remembered that he was
the commander of the Mexican army
that invaded Texas, and which was
defeated at San Jacinto. He was ta-
ken prisoner by the Texans, and mar
rowly escaped with his life. Many
years of his life have been spent in
exile, az d he has alternated from
supreme authority in his native land
to expulsion from it with strange
facility and frequency. He was in
exile at the commencement oE our
Mexican war, but was permitted by
our Government to return to Mex
leo. Once there he took possession,
organized large armies and made
vigorous war, suffering defeat at the
hands of Scott at Cerro Gordo, and
about the city of Mexico, and re-
sided on Staten Island recently, for
some months, leaving but a few
weeks ago to take advantage of the
Mexican situation. He returned to
the country in behalf of which he is
sued so many pompous proclama-
tons, once too often. He was a
man ofvery considerable ability, and
his name will stand more conspicu-
Gus in the history Of Mexico, up to
this time, than that of any other na-
tive Of the county Cimcinnsft

The Wool Growers in Council.

The meeting of "friends of pro-
tective policy" to consult in regard
to the propriety of supporting Gen
eral Hayes, Or the advisability Of
boiling the nomination, took place
on Thursday in CARROTS Hail.
There were sac persons present, all
told; four sat in the middle Of the
hall, to represent the Wool Growers
Association, and two sat by the win
dow as the other ''friends DC" not
in the wool interest. We believe
they decided not to upset the course
of human events, and the world will
therefore continue to revolve on it's
axis at its accustomed rate of speed.
