rruth It Last.


The Chicago Tribune has been one
of the most ardent supporters of the
Congressional plan of reconstruction.
In common with other Radical papers,
it has filled its columns with ISLANDERS
upon the people of the South and has
lent itself to the schemes of the poll
ticians, who cared more for party
than for the restoration of the coun-
try to peace and prosperity. The cry
of the New, York Tribune. that the
Republican party cannot afford to be
responsible for any more esrpet-bag-
gers, is now echoed by its Chicago
namesake. In letter which it pub
fishes conspicuously, we at last have
the truth in regard to various matters
which have been in controversy, and
there is an evident disposition to atone
for past errors. We present few
specimens, from this communication.

FATAL AcCIDENT.-We are informed
by Judge Pollitt of a most heart rend-
ing accident that occurred on Monday
last in Vanceburg, Ky, twenty miles
below here. Mr.. T. D. Parker, the
Mayor of the town and manager of the
extensive Touring mills at that place,
while engaged in stirring a large tank
of slop which is prepared for the hogs
by being heated by steam, lost his bal
ance and pitched head first into the
boiling slop. A young man who hap
pened to be near, hearing the scream,
ran to him and tried to pull him out,
but unfortunately his hands slipped and
the victims head and shoulders we're
submerged a second time. He tried
again and succeeded in helping him
out. The poor man was literally cooked
alive, and rent the air with his heart
rending screams, which made the stout
est men turn faint and sick. He was
taken home and lived six hours, suf-
fering the most excrueiating agony
He was conscious-to the last He was
an exemplary, christian gentleman, be-
owed by all who knew him. The town
8 shrouded in mourning, and all busi-
less is suspended. He leaves wife
md two small children to mourn his
loss.--Portsmoath 1ri6ane. |

CoNGREss.-There was lively and
exciting time in the House, Thurs
day. The Democrats found an
opening for full display of their
stock in trade--demagoguery-and
went in to the extent of their brains.
The occasion was the discussion of
the Diplomatic Appropriation bill
The debate was in the customary
vein till a motion came up for re-
storing the mission to Rome, which
was abolished three or four years
ago. The Democrats have tried
every session since then to make
party capital by bidding for Catholic
votes on this question. Dawes
tried hard to keep the discussion
down to the merits of having
Minister in Rome, bu. they were not
to be cheated of their opportunity,
and a number of them repeated the
old speeches and sophistries in the
most energetic manner. Hoar, of
Massachusetts,, made little speech
in reply to half dozen of them,
which so aroused the ire of Vor-
hees that he used language for which
be was called to order. The affair
produced quite an excitement, and
the words of Voorhees, were taken
down so that he may be dealt with. |

/ Word About our railroad.

AS the books are to be opened on
the 10Th of June for receiving sub
scriptions to the capital stock of the
company in the counties through
which the road pssses, we hope all
the property holders and capitalists
along the line will not be behind in
aiding the railroad project. lSee
notice in this paper-] The people
should be wide awake to this i'm
portant enterprise--especially the
people of Vinton and Gallia couu-
ties. They are deeply interested in
the enterprise. They should be
ready to put their shoulder to the
wheel; subscribe their money, So
licit others to subscribe money; and
lend their influence in every respect
when the time arrives when they
will be of service. Our company
having the old road bed between Lo-
gan and Dundas, and secured the
right of way, only a few hundred
thousand dollars in addition are re-
quired to complete the road. 1t
would not require an average of
more than $4,000 a mile-or say
about 5000, ,000-to fully complete
the road from Logan to Gallipolis.
Could not three times that amount
be subscribed within one month
after the opening of the books2
