We take the following from the Danviilc
MteNigencer Of the 18th inst
FATAL AccIDENT-Francis Brady, a
farmer in Derry twp, one day last week,
while in the act Of unloading wheat at one
of the mills in that township, fell beneath
his wagon, when the horses starting, the
wheels passed over him, inAieting internal
injuries, which resulted in his death. Brady
was an Irishman by birth, and for many
years worked at one Of the rolling mills in
this place.
Yesterday morning, lad named Thomas
Monahan, son of John Monahan, a work
man at the Pennsylvania works, while hang
ing to u train of cars, on the L. Il b. rail.
road, was thrown off by sudden jerk Of
the cars, and being thrown across the track,
the car wheels passed over his neck, sever.
ing it entirely from his body. 1t was a sud.
den and terrible death, and should be a
warning to the large number OF children
who are daily to be seen recklessly jumping
on and off passing trains ..
On last Wednesday, Mr.. George Auten,
of Limestone twp, while engaged in the
harvest field, was overcome with the intense
heat, and before medical aid could be pro-
cured died from its effects.
We have heard of number of other in
stances in this vicinity which came very near
proving fatal. In Limestone twp. some six
or seven horses fell down dead in the har-
ness from the effects Of the heat.

the present inequitable tariff, which stu.

"The present tariff obliges the American
people to pay in all cases double, and in
some cases. nearly triple, the cost of the
salt-for what? For revenue? Not at all,

favoring the American salt monopolists, and
enabling them to make the people pay doub-

UN ENFANT TERRIBLE. -Ofall the politi-
cal journalists Of the country Horace Gree.
ley is the most unlucky in putting sticks into
the hands of his opponents with which to
hit his own party. The extract below is
carried round by Democratic papers just
now. with great deal Of industry: '
''1he war being over, we can no longer
carry elections by reading bulletins Of Union
victories, and exhorting the people to rally
round the flag. And those pushing Gen.
eral Grant for President will land where the
Wings did with Scott in 1852, If they are
allowed to have their own way. They ut.
terly mistake the time Of day. "-Nep York
Tribune, Nor. I, 1867.
Now it becomes the duty Of Horace to
make it appear that the nomination Of Grant
just suits "the time Of day." and the work
is very awk ward ono. =, .t, ..t.

Much anxiety is beng manifested in re-
gard to the object of his visit to Green
brisr White Sulphur Springs. He was
asked various questions on that subject
soon after be arrived, all of which he an
swered readily and frankly. He says he
went there on no political mission, aud
also without advising with his friends.
His visit was purely one of his own 0 q
ception, and undertaken for his own
personal satisfaction, to ascertain from
representative men OF the South whether
there were any obstacles in the
way of peace between that section
aud the North. He was satisfied the
power which organized and sustained the
CoDfederacy for four years against the
gigantic efforts OF the United States Gov
eminent to suppress the rebellion, could
exercise great influence in restoring order
and stability everywhere, at the same
time promoting the national interests OF
the country. He was received by Gen.
Lee aud other prominent Southern SOL
diers, with marked cordially. In all
their personal conversations they were
frank and unreserved, and their conver-
sstions were mainly with reference to
advancing the common interest, ire
spective Of the causes which, for q time,
divided the North and South, and re-
suited in the reconstruction acts Of Con-
gfess.
Gen. Rcsecrans says that his visit was
satisfactory, and that the temper and
tone Of those Southerners was highly ps-
triotie. AS for the statement that he In
tends to issue an address signed by those
men with whom he was In conference,
he says that as his visit was for his own
personal satisfaction, be does nOt know
that any publication from him Is re-
quired or may become necessary. The
| propriety Of any such course rests exclu-
sively with himself.

Concerning the cotton crop, the Macon
Record gives the following disagreeable
picture of things in Noxubes county,
Mississippi:
1.-THE crop has been gathered in this
section, and ell the trouble IL ever. Never
before was the worm so rapid in it's de-
struetion. Nobody thinks of asking if
b worm is in the cotton, for 1t is all in
the worm. Sand hills and prairies are
all alike, and there will scarcely be
enough left for seed. In some localities
q fire could not have been more destruct-
i've than was the worm, and it was done
so quickly that some farmers did not
know they had the worm until thew
yer hall eat up"
OF the prospects In Oktibbeha county.
Miss, the Starkville Era says:
"From every portion Of the county
we hear hat the worm Is making sad
havoc with the cotton. A month or
more ago, before these continuous rains,
the prospect was fine, and promised q
splendid yield. The rains set in, causing
the cotton to shed largely, and now the
worm makes the prospect for cotton very
gloomy. The cor crop Is good, but the
rains have prevented the saving of more
than hall, If that much, Of the fodder"
We hear, says the Vlcksburg Times, of
both the army and boil worm In Jeffer-
son and Claiborne counties. The dam
age in the latter is not great; In the for
mer 1t ls very considerable.
