promises ofthe Northern Democracy, threat
ems that when Seymour Is elected;-
"One of the very first things we will ask
will be the assumption of the Confederate
debt. This Is precluded by the amendment
mocracy deny that this amendment has been

Gen. Howard has sent to tine War Depart
ment the reports of Gen. Sibley and Capt.
Mills, relative to the Camilla riot. From
Capt. Mills report, it appears that tho dis
turbance was begun by drunken white
man; that about half the negroes were arm
ed; that the colored people fled to the woods
where they were pursued by citizens as
SheriffHs posse, and that firing of guns was
kept up in the woods during the day. Nine
colored men were killed and twenty-five to
thirty wounded; a few whites were slightly
wounded. There was no evidence that the
colored people intended or expected any, dis
turbance, and the negligence Of the civil au-
thorities is censured. Gen. Sibley says nc
inquest has been held, and there is no pros
pect of Furnishing the guilty.

with frame work of heavy timber and point
ed roofs. About forty miles oftrsck will re-
quire to be convered, and 1t is stated that
twenty-five saw mills, most OF them worked
by steam, are running night and day, en-
ploying nearly ten thousands men, and six
more are building. 1t is estimated that il
will require eight hundred thousand feet oi
timber to the mile for the sheds.

The Episcopal Conventton-Bishop f.ee.
We gave yesterday some idea of the tenor
of Bishop Lees opening sermon in the New
York Episcopal Convention. Its strong
Evangelical tone, and pointed illusions to
the rituallstic movement have attracted great
attention, and our good townsman seems to
make prominent figure in the eye of all the
Episcopal Church, at this juncture. In an
article commenting upon the character Of
the Convention, the New York Sun, Of
Wednesday, says:-
From present appearances 1t would seem
that Of the two parties whose differences ol
opinion are distracting and dividing the
Church, the Low Churchmen are the more
active and aggressive. 1t has been said they
will secede and form an independent church
Of their own, to be called sthe Reformed
Protestant Episcopal Church Of the Unitet
States Of America Bishop Lee, Of Della
ware, Is the only one, 1t Is said, who Is viii
ting to help establish new Church and
three bishops have ever been considered ne
cessary to consecrate a bishop, 1t would seer
that unless other accessions are made n
valid episcopacy can be maintained. Thus
after the death Of Bishop Lee, the Reforme
Church would be without q bishop, an
would therefore cease to be an Episcops
Church. .-Friddv's Commercial.

JUDGE CHASES POSITION.

The New York Tribune after alluding to
the various contradictory statements con-
cerning Chief Justice Chase's position in this
campaign gives the following which we sup
pose may be considered authoritative
''The truth lies between the extremes, and
it Is time 1t were fairly stated. That the po-
sition to which the Chief Justice sought to
bring the Democratic party did not greatly
differ from that occupied on vital issues by
the Republicans, everybody knows. That
in their disregard of principle and craving
for success they came very near adopting his
policy, is equally well understood. That
finally the Rebels gained the ascendency,
conquered the party and made nominations
and platform, was as plain to Mr.. Chase as
to all others. Naturally he can support no
party making war on Reconstruction and
on the National Credit, and to those who
had right to approach him on the subject
he has said SO. His personal relations with
Gov. Seymour are understood to be kindly,
but he will not vote for him. He may moi
make the journey from Washington to Gin
cinnati to vote at all, but If he should hi
will vote for Grant and Colfax:"

From the Columbus tGa) Enquirer.
We saw, yesterday. portion Of tho skull
bones cut out from the head of Mrs. Ander-
son BY her husband, in his murderous assaui.
upon her. The sight WAS . horrible ono.
The pieces Of skull bone were ten or twelve
in number, and the largest was about an inch
wide by three inches in length.
The cuts were made on the top Of the head,
between the crown and the forehead, and the
drawing knife used mnst have been very
sharp instrument, for some Of the edges of
the bone we're cnt perfectly smooth. Nearly
the whole OF the skull on the upper and front
part Of the head was cut through in parallel
or transverse lines, and al least one of the
cuts was over an inch deep All Of them
either went entirely through the skull or
drove it in fragments down into the brain,
whence it was extracted by the doctors.
J he most remarkable part ofthe horrible
affair is that the poor woman was still alive
on Monday night was entirely sensible, and
actually appeared to be getting better. We
say appeared for the chance of her recovery
would seem TO be hopeless-tbe physicians
being of the opinion that in most cares only
one Of the. numerous cuts that penetrated
the skull would cause death.
