REPORTED MURDER. We have Just been ap-
priced Of the murder of an old lady, aged
between IS and so years, known as Patsy
Mills, by FIVE negroes. From what we can
CLEAN, it appears that Mrs. Mills, who has re.
sided on the Eeesburg pike, some ten miles dis.
sant from Georgetown, for number of years,
having lost her husband about twenty years
since, has been pursuing the business of cult
waiting market truck in connection with her
son. The old lady and the son were in the
habit OF coming to Washington and George
town to dispose Of their product, and being
known as frugal people, it was supposed that
considerable had been accumulated by this
means. A number Of negroes in the locality,
knowing these facts, proceeded to the residence
of Mrs Mills, on the Leesburg pike, one night
last week, and brutally murdered her. besides
severely injuring an old lady who was sojouru-
ing in the house at the time. The son was
sound asleep at the time, and knew nothing of
the horrible affair until the next morning
The Virginia authorities the next day arrested
five notorious negroes OF the neighborhood on
suspicion who we're committed to the Fairfax
county Jail. 1t was ascertained that consider
able amount of money had been taken away,
which was doubtless the incentive to the
murder Wash. Republican of this morning.

HE0rc Orders arolsa Gen. SclaoflcaN.
We notice several new orders just promu!ga-
ted by Gen. Schofcld.
The order allowing voters to cast their ballots
in the counties to which they have removed
since the election in Octoter last is in spirit in
strict accordance with that provision OF the
present. Constitution Of Firginia, which declares
one county until he shall have acquired the
right to vote in another county Besides, it Is
SO we'll guarded as against fraud that it cannot,
in The hands of honest registers Or supcrintcn-
dents Of elections, result in any wrong
The paragraph declaring that no one IS dis
franchised by the Constitution or laws Of Elr-
gnia settles the question raised by certain
proscripti0nsts as to whether persons distran-
chised by the Alexandria Constitution before
its amendment, are entitled to vote. All such
are declared to be voters, il not otherwise dis
franchiscd The other part Of the same para
graph applies only to persons who have come
into Virginia from States in which . rebels -
are or we're once DISTINGUISHED. Such persons,
if ever disfranchiscd, will, it is declared,
continue to be DISTINGUISHED in this State as
long as we vote under the operation OF the
reconstruction acts. 1t may disiranchisc 4 few
persons who have recently come into this State
from West Virginia, and who were DISTINGUISHED
under the infamous laws Of that bogus State
AS such persons would be unable to tai Ike the
registration OATH it is not probable that the
registers will have the pleasure 0! rejecting
many such.
The declaration that the deputies Of county
officers are not disfranchiscd is worthy opartic-
uIar notice -Richna0nd Dispatch.

FATAL ACCIDENT We have already met
toned with much sorrow, tbemelanchoy death
of Mrs. Dr. Stribling, the estimable and be-
loved wife of DIR. Robert Stribling of Fauquer
county. The following particulars are from
the Warrenton Index:
'sWe regret to learn the sad death of Mrs.
Stribling, the wife of Dr.. Robert Stritling near
Markham Station, resulting from the explosion
of kerosene, on Saturday night. In filing
lighted lamp the can exploded communicating
the flames of the burning oil to her dress and
enveloping her in an instant Her shrieks
brought her husband to the room, who sue
ceeded in extnguishing the flames, but not I'M
til he himself was badly burnt. The fire hay
ing also caught to the bedding and curtains in
the chamber, the fortunate presence of some
5 or men at the house, alone and with diff
Guilty saved it from destruction. Mrs S. ling
cred till Monday when she was relieved by
death of her suferngs. This is another sad
lesson to those who are careless in the use of
our now almost universal burning fluid. -
