Hon. Josiah I. Young. our present
efficient and popular Secretary Of
State, is endorsed by numerous Re.
publican papers. and hosts OF leading
Republican leaders of the State, for
denomination. Elccting Mr. Craig
Warden of the Penitsntiary again,
has in the minds Of many, exploded
the third term objection so far as our
State officers are concerned. and we
do not apprchend that Mr.. Young
will he seriously opposed on that
score. Mr.. Yonng IS snpcrlatively
good officer. and the argument at Des
Moines aud many other places Is, that
when yon have a man in Office like
that. ii Will be a risk to run to elect
some one else who is entirely with
out experience in the business. The
argument is good one so far as Mr..
Young is concerned, and VIC have
not word to utter against his re-
! nomination, even il it is done by ac-
clamation.- MarShdltoiea Repnbiican.

pieces. The engine was standing
at the tank near town, and had
just been re moved from the shop,
where it had been under repair.
1t was being supplied with coal
and the engineer had his hand on
the throttle ready to move, when
the explosion occurred. The en-
giIe was completely wrecked,
torn into a thousand Fragments.
Nearly all the windows in a
neighboring house were broken by
the conclusion, and the force was
so great that pieces of the engine
weighing 600 pounds were thro Sn
over a hundred yards. Rumsport's
head vas horribly mangled. His
r";'k was broken, several ugly
holes were made in his head from
which the brains ooZed, and his
right arm was broken in three
places. He has a wife and four
children living in Baltimore He
was much thought of by all his
acquaintance.
Carr's condition is serious, hav-
ing received an ugly cash in the
back of his head. The event has
caused the greatest excitement.

The meeting at the court-house
Wednesday night was large one. Cd
Faulkner, ir., introduced the Hon.
II. G.. Davis, who spoke for over an
hour and a half, and was listen ed to
with the closest attention on the
part of the audience. The Senator
confined his remarks to a plain ,prac-
teal and forcible statement of
facts contrasting the expenditures
of the government during the last
six years with the seventy-two years
of expenditure prior to the war, and
showing that the expenditures of the
past six years exceeded those of the
seventy-two years. His speech was
full of valuable information well cal
culated TO excite earnest thought
and consideration on the part of his
hearers. He dwelt forcibly on the
tendency of Capitalization on the
part of the present administration,
and saw great danger to the the
liberties of the people from sue h a
peryersion of the constitution and
form of government. His speech was
well received as evidenced by the
careful attention which it ELECTED
throughout.
AT the close of Senator Davis
speech, the Hon. Frank Hereford
member of Congress, from the Third
District, was introduced and made a
forcible and telling speech, which
was well received by the audience.
Mr.. Hereford is a pleasant and
ready speaker, and although not ex-
pecting to make a speech on this oc-
casion, acquitted himself handsomely.
After the close of Hon T Hereford's
speech, H. S. Walker, esq.,, was in
trodueed. Mr.. Walker is an orator
of the style of Bob Ingersoli, i'm
FASHIONED, brilliant ,incisive and elo-
quent. AS public speaker he has
