Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette
HANOVER COUNTY, December 18th, 1867
The weather has 50 much moderated that the
snow which was eight inches deer, is now rap
idly passing off, The coId snap caught most
of our people without wood, and it was with
the greatest difficulty that the ,ssorereaJns'
could be prevailed on to get any-cither tor
themselves or their employers. On such occa
sions they flock in great numbers to the neigh
boring groggery, and no one, seeing them:
would imagine that one notion OF care or
trouble ever "erossed their peaceful breasts.
And yet majority of them have left IN their
dreary huts weeping wives and helpless OIL
spripg to mourn their sad fate. Two traits of
character essential to good neighborhood most
of theserpeo pie seem totally destitute or; syns-
paA.v and gratitude! Aud SO soon as Mr..
Stevens fails to enable the negro 10 live with
out work, as it is supposed the reconstructlon
measures are designed to d., be will hnd that

A Terrible Story.

HUDSON. N. Y, December lS--A mystic
rious and exciting affair has occurred III this
county. Last week tenement house was des-
trnyed by fire, and girl OF twelve years Of age
burned to death From some suspicious cir
cumstancrs he rcputed father and mother #
the child Mr. and Mr. Brown Well arrc>-
ted on charge Of arson and murder in setting
fire to the house and causing the death OF the
girl but they We're discharged by the coroner $
jury
It is stated that the parents had a liIe policy
of five thousand dollars on the lite or the ch'ld
in the Travellers Accidental Insurance Com
pany of Hartford 1t was three months pc!
icy, taken out about the time the family took
up their residence in Canaan, and had but
twelve days to run when the Insured lost her
life The parties applied to the Company tor
the amount Of the policy, when circumstances
aroused the suspicion OF the officers that all
was not right. They caused The body to be
disinterred, and an examination Was Instituted,
when marks of violence were plainly traced on
the back Of The child's head
An officer Of the Company Immediately pro
ceeded to Canaan and made thorough exami-
nation of the premises where the disaster oc
Cured, and the developments served TO
strengthen The suspicion that foul play had
been US d. and that Mr. and Mrs. Brown had
been guilty Of terrible crime. The officer
telegra pied to Connecticut to have the susl,ect-
ed persons arrested, and yesterday he came to
this city and took out the papers TO obt in Il
requisition from Governor Fcnton for the Gus
tody OF the prs rncrs.
1t is moreover reported that the chIli was
not daughter Of the Browns, but was a6duct
ed ty them from Ohio some time ago
There is q dccp-scatcd suspicion thai she
was sacrificed by the Browns in order that they
might obtain tic amount OF the life Insurance,
and that their brief residence in Canaan Was
merely to carry out this purpose.

AT last, Mr.. Stanton, the late Secretary OF
War, is receiving his deserts. The indepen-.
dent presses Of the country are showing him.
up in his true colors The Baltimore Gazette,
says He obtained Office by apostatizipg from
the principles he had avowed and embracing
those be had denounced only three months be-
fore he became Secretary of War. He leaves
Office striving vigorously to sustain and vindl-
cate for personal and partisan ends a law which
he had solemnIy assured the President, four or
five months previously, was in violation OF the
Constitution, and therefore not binding on
him. +"
The ''preliminaries' of the Virginia Recon
struction Convention are too tedious. lhey
should cease their motion" aud begin! The
per diem is a great temptation to most OF them
for 'sproIougation but, then, this may be
carried to an excess 10 the eyes OF their
''constituents. . Gen. Schofeld may become
as impatient as was Gen. Pope in the case of
the Alabama Convention.
A Manufacturers National Convention has
been Ia session in Cleveland, Ohio. The OBJ
iect of the Convention was to endeavor to OBJ
tain from Congress the immediate removal OF
all taxes upon manufactures and productions,
except luxuries, and to change the mode, of as
