THE SENToRIAL SEvEN.-Most of
the seven Republican Senators who
voted against the impeachment of
Andy Johnson have been singularly
unfortunate. Henderson of Mis-
souri,, and Van Wrinkle, of West
Virginia, have been superseded and
left out in the cold; Fowler, of Ten
nessee, will probably be superseded
by Andy Johnson himself in the
coming senatorial election in that
State; Fessenden, of Maine, is lying
dangerously i'll and Grimes, of Iowa,
an invalid in Paris, it appears has
resigned. Only Trumbull Of Illinois.
and Ross of Kansas, remain intact
Of all the bold and independentseve
Such is the whirling of party politics.
1t whirls them out, but still the
world wags on.-N. Y. Herald.

been made by negroes who have
served in the army that they have
not received their bounty payments,
and the department is being flooded
with applicants from ex-colored
troops who fought nobly, for the
payments. While it is known that
the majority of them have been form

POLITICAL AFFAIRS IN TExAs.-A
Washington dispatch says: "The
destruction Of the Hamilton party in
Texas by the Administration is
steadily going forward since the re-
turn of the President; he has receiv-
ed letter from Gen. Reynolds to
the effect that, in his belief, the
election of Hamilton would destroy
the Republican party in Texas, and
throw obstacles in the way of the
peaceful reconstruction of that State.
The letter confirms the statement of
the President, recently made by
General Clarke. 1t appears that all
the Hamilton Office holders are to be
removed, to be succeeded by Davis
men.

AWFUL ACCOMPLISHMENT Shirley,
q lad of some IL or IA years, son of
Stephen Shirley, of Union Tp., was
accidentally shot last Saturday, and it
was feared the wound would prove
fatal. He was out hunting with a
young son of our friend Esq. Lucas of
that Township. Young Lucas caught
his foot some way and fell down, and
his rifle was thereby accidentally
discharged, the ball from it striking
young Shirley a little below and be-
hind the right ear and passing along
outside of the parietal bone and out a
little behind the right temple. DR..
Williams Of Pleasantville was fortu-
nate!y in the vicinity, and was
promptly at hand. DR.. Covington Of
Pleasantville was also called, we be-
lieve. DR.. Cornell Of Knoxville was
to 60 out there yesterday afternoon;
but at this whiting TUESDAY PM
we cannot state further as to the boys
condition.
Since the above was in type we
have learned that young Shirley is
recovering finely, the wound not hav-
ing proved SO serious as was at first
supposed.

x. Il u. r.. Rive are glad to
notice fhsi our excellent contemporary
81 knaxVille. the Voter. is agitating
the question Of building q railroad
from Abba, q9a Knoxville TO Des
M6ines III il an enterprise in which
mach Interest Is felt in this part of
the StAie- The rich, populous, ener-
getic md Intelligent County of Mari
on one 4f The very best in all respects
IN flaa s..a.s, Is certainly deserving of
much better railroad facilities than it
now possesses: and we hope the peo-
y,le there will continue to agitate the
question until the above mentioned
project becomes a living reality.
-Ha,Ckeye.
There is slight mistake in the
above. The A. X. e. ID. Railroad
subject is not "agitated" here now.
We believe in striking while the
irons hot" and in such matters don't
deem it best to keep hammering away
when the iron isn't hot. Our desire
is, for the present, merely to refer to
the matter upon occasion, as to topic
by no means dead; and when the
time shall come, MS we believe it will,
for a renewed "agitation," no effort of
ours shall be wanting In aid Of this
great enterprise. We still have hope
of riding in the cars from Knoxville
on the A. X. & ID. Railroad.

UNSAFE BRIDGES Thomas
Maddy, Of Indiana Township, in a
letter received too late fer last weeks

which befel him at the North Cedar
bridge on the 18th inst. He says
there was plank loose on the bridge,
which caused all the trouble-One of
his horses feet having slipped through;
and the animals fioundering around
threw the whole team and wagon over
the bank, some IL or Ia feet deep. II
thought 1t was safer above the horses
than below them," says Mr.. NJ, land
l jumped out of the wagon; and when
! got down to the horses, the near one
was standing up, with the wood-rack
on him, looking up to see if better
times were coming 49,
''Now, then.n writes Mr.. Maddy,
II would like to know who is respon-
sihle for the damage sustained from
such an unsafe bridge, when the SUI
pervisor can't cross 1t without seeing
that 1t Is unsafe, and always has been,
ever since 1t was built. Suppose a
traveller comes along, and his team
falls or the bridge and gets killed.

on ahead Of him To the Supervisors, to
keep the roads In good repair, before
he can obtain damages for such losses
