ACCIDENT.-From a fall on the ice, near
the Bank corner, on Thursday morning last,
we regret to state that Capt. J. w. Rowan
was severely injured. His right shoulder,
arm, side and leg, all give evidence of exter-
nal if not internal injury. His numerous
friends most sincerely sympathiza with him
IN this accident, as he had but just recovered
from most painful and severe mutilation of
the hand, which occurred in the early sum-
mer, and had been his 'day dream and night
waxing" until now it is mid-winter. We
hope for his speedy recovery.

CONGRESSIONAL ECoNoMY-Mr. Bald
win, of Massachusetts,, member of the House
of Representatives at Washington, is the
correspondent in that city of the Worcester
(Mass.) Spy. In late letter to that paper
he accuses those Congressman who constantly
cry retrenchment of demagogism, in that
those only who are likely to suffer from its
effects are the employees of the government,
whose salaries will be cut down, while the
salaries of members will remain untouched.
Mr.. Baldwin says the party assessments made
on such clerks will be none the less rigidly
enforced, and he claims to have personal
knowledge of cases whore contributions were
made to sustain the Southern campaign, in
which men employed at the capital on salaries
ofs1 200 and 81 400 year paid more to that
cause than did the loudest advocate of econ
omy to be found in the House.

How THE SOLDIERS FEEL.-The Lnion,
published at Madrid, Maine, gives the follow
ing extract from letter written by one of the
soldiers in the Sixth Maine regiment. 1t in
dictates very distinctly the immense change
which is going on in public opinion in regard
to the Radicals. This soldier veteran Says

fought the South in arms three long years; l
marched over desolated fields and grounds de-
luged with blood. l thought, as scores of
others did, that was fighting for our old flag
and the Constitution, but 1 got greatly mis-
taken. 1 found out before the close of the
war that was fighting to keep an army of
plunderers in power. think they have been
kept in power little too long for the coun>
try's good. 1t is time they were relieved.
think there arc honest men enough to rule
this nation The Republicans have had a fair
trial, and they have proved incompetent We
ask them now to stand back, just stand back
and give place to better class of men. This
they must do, no matter how much they dis
like the idea. l, for one, never will consent
to be ruled by negro. The Republicans
must remember that there are in the loyal
States one million of soldiers who ,cW not be
ruled by negroes, or consent to see any por-
ton of our own white race thus degraded -

New YEAR PREsENTAT1oNs.-The teach
ers of the Episcopal Sabbath School in this
town, planted in Jefferson Hall New Years
night, massive cedar, decorated with seven
ty>two lighted tapers and twenty or more
magic lanterns, and on every branch la
belled token, as New Year present for the
children of the school. The exhibition was
a beautiful one, and though the night was
very unfayorable the attendance of children
and parents was quite large. As the chill
dren received their respective awards, their
little hearts seemed to rejoice, and to one and
all of them we hope their gifts may prove q
new incentive,to prosecute with pleasure and
profit their Sabbath School studies for the
coming year.

Eg- The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun says: % y report is current
that Gen. Schofeld will directly remove the
State officers of Virginia and appoint others
in their places, aud that he has been in cor
respondence with the President and General
Grant on the subject. The latter of this re-
port is incorrect. No such correspondence
mas probably taken place, Under the law
the President has no authority in the matter,
and Gen. Grants power is revisory." Gov.

Of January, aud be now holds over-on

a Horrible Fraud,

Could the story be written of the gigantic
frauds perpetrated during the war, the people
would be amazed beyond measure. The slime
of corruption tainted almost every public
transaction, and thieves abounded more than
honest men Here is the last horrible revela-
ton. The st. Louis correspondent of the
Cincinnati Enquirer says:
There is no telling the ways that men,
greedy for gain, will not avail themselves Of
to advance their fortunes, especially during
and since the war, as men have been found
willing and anxious to sell soul and conscience
for little filthy lucre A few days since an
incident occurred which very torcibly illus
trates this. An Irishman was employed to
dig up and remove some Of the bodies of
Union soldiers in the Wesleyan Cemetery Of
this city In lifting the. collins he thought
they seemed unusually hollow in their sound,
and opening some of them found that no
bodies had ever been placed in them at all,
nothing but planks or square blocks of wood
The mystery to the honest Bibernian was
great, but when it was told him that the Union
soldiers were buried by contracts, the under>
taker received so much per coffin, and that
the bodies could be sold at handsome profit
to some medical college, the doubt was at once
removed, and the avenue to large fortune
Immediately disclosed. This was only one of
the ways that the war made men rich.

"A dispatch from Scranton, Pa, says the
Delaware, Lackawanna, and Western Rail-
road Company, whose shops have for some
weeks been running on eight hours time,
have notified its employees, Of whom thsrs
are nearly one thousand at Scranton, that
reduction of ten per cent. in wages. would be

Dixon works, which employ seyep hundred
men, gave similar notice. and viii discharge
a number of single men and of those for the
shortest time in the employ of the company.
The Lackawanna Iron Company recently dis
charged thirty carpenters and considerable
number of laborers and other Eorkpep, and

The WEATHER, like the times, is extra
ordinary, and We have rarely had winter of
more universal change. At the time of wri-
ting this, the sun pours forth as genial rays
as on an April day, the public highways
knee-deep in mud, though perhaps by the
morrow the rays of tic one will be obscured
and the other frozen hard and aeees OF
snow for its covering.

THE HoL1DAYs have come and gone, and
were by far too prominently marked by the
bacchanalian revels which have characterized
the past. As general thing, the freedmen
were not more riotous than usual, though it
seemed to us that their heart vas not in the
occasion, as in days of yore, when the fiddle
and the banjo on our streets, and "hog and
hominy'' at home, made their faces to beam
forth with gladness. We are grati6ed to
state that many more than last year, have ia
ken permanent hogBs Is in the country for the
year with their families, rather than rely
upon the uncertain employment of the town.
In comparison with many other localities of
which we have learned, it is our pleasure to
commend the general good condue. of our
colored people and their apparent willingness
to work, though in many cases entirely too
extravagant in demand.

TABLEAUx.-Some of thc-young ladies
connected with Mr.. BRowN's Seminary Of

acters, we learn, were most happily conceived,
and the representations true to nature.

NEGRO PRooEssIoN-O On last Wednesday,
says the Winchester Nescs, our streets were
darkened by large procession of freedmen,
in commenoration of the emancipation. They
met at the African Church and formed into
line, and after marching through the streets,
proceeded to the Courthouse Hall, where
doubtless business connected with the Union
League was transacted.

Rich ENTERTAINMENT members of
the Phoenix Division, Sons of Temperance,
located at Elk Branch in this county, gave a
rich entertainment at their hall on New Years
night. We were not present, and for good
reason, but are glad to learn thai the occa-
sion was one of great enjoyment, and the sup
per well calculated to excite the appetite of
the epicure. The tables groaned beneath
their load Of turkeys, chickens, mutton, oys>
tiers, rich cakes, and other delicacies. Long
may the flag of old Phoenix wave, and may
great prosperity attend her il the onward
march of temperance and morality.

LOCAL MISCELLANY;

AT WoRK-on Saturday last the Jefer-
son County Building Association, went into
practical operation, with prospects decidedly
fattering. The receipts of the Treasurer on
that day amounted to about $3.50. This
amount, however, should not be taken to in
dictate the number of shares subscribed, as
many of the country stockholders paid their
weekly fees in advance to avoid the necessity
of coming to town every Saturday The ball
is now in motion, and we hope there will be
sufficient enterprise in the community to keep
it rolling. 1t is matter in which all are in
terested, and the very thing that is needed to
cause tumbling down of the present excess
sive rents. A meeting of the stockholders
for the purpose of electing seven Directors
for the Association will be held this evening.
