mirer Of the late Thaddeus Stevens-gives
to the Cincinnati Gazette "personal recol-
lections Of his friend" While he confirms
the charge that Stevens did live with a
colored woman as his wife, he dismisses
the subject in a most summary way, as
though it were scarcely worthy of mention.
The reverend eulogist says:
begin this article on Mr.. Thaddeus
Stevens with precisely that point in his
life on which two or three religious papers
assailed his memory. mean his domes-
tic relations. The colored. Bishop Payne,
shrewd and pious man, who had the
means of knowing, said to me: =" He

TERRIBLE AcoIDENr.--Last Saturday
week man named Rogers, at Greensbo-
ro, Md. fell in the Fireplace and burned
his face to crisp. One eye was burned
out. He had just moved in the house that
day, from Philadelphia, and was in the
room by himself in the act of taking some
medicine, and tainted it is supposed. His
wife, on entering from an adjoining room,
was unable to pull him from the fire until
assistance was rendered, he being large
man. He was taken back to Philadelphia
on Monday last, Superintendent Semall
giving the family pass over the road
His face is literally cooked.

In the last issue of the Neos the following
passage, in his letter to that journal, oc-
ours:
"Sinapis" is little hard on our county
town, and whilst / could not sanction his
article. ! do not think anybody is hurt, as
the eRclOsed two dollar greenback has
been hssded me for one years subscrip-
tion to the Ksat News. the person handing
it saying he wanted to see the fun. Our
friend of the Transcript seems to think
.'Sinapis" must be transplant from the
forests Of Delaware. I can assure him
that such is not the fact; but Chestertown
lis somewhat in debt to that same Delaware
forest, and the protector and former pro-
pfietor, of the "Voshell House" was raised

white oaks that sheltered the Blue Hens
