An accident occurred near Carsville,
on the Seaboard and Roanoke Railroad,
on the morning of June 25th, which
plunged the whole neighborhood IN dis
tress and gloom. Two young girls,
bv the name Of Massen, were crossing
an open field and between them carrying a
pail of new milk. Suddenly
A THUNDERBOLT
descended from comparatively clear
sky and stretched the two girls senseleSs
upon the earth. One, the eldest, twenty
years of age, was killed outright, aud the
other was shocked into insensibility for
an hour or more, but was finally re-
stored to consciousness. The sun was
shining brightly at the time and only
an ordinary cloud was seen overhead and
the mutterings of thunder heard in the
distance. Not drop Of rain fell in the
entire neighborhood during the day.

SECRETARY-OF WAR CAMERON.
WASHINGTON, July 8.-The secretary
of war, in long communication to the
President, recites all the facts of the or
ganization of the military expedition
called for by the department of the inte-
rior, for the purpose of forcing the Sioux
under Sitting bull back to their reserva-
ton, set apart for them by the govern
ment. The secretary Is very severe
upon the Sioux for their long continued
career of cruelty and crimes, and says
that the department is doing all it can to
reinforce General Crook and Terry, with
view to administering adequate punish
ment for the massacre of General Custer
and his brave soldiers. Beyond this
promise of revenge, the secretary's com
munica ton emhofies nothing new.

National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1876-05-04

SENATOR MORTON yesterday made a
personal explanation in the Senate in re-
gard to the SANDER published in the Wash
ington correspondence OF the New York
World, charging him with peculation in
the disbursement of $3.50, 900 received from
the Government for war'purposes in In
diana in 1862. If there ever was bare
faced, malicious, unmitigated and willful
lie this charge against Senator Morton
takes precedence, and that gentleman, in
his speech yesterday, proved it such to the
complete satisfaction of every member of
the SenatI, both Democrat and Republican.
The facts the Senator gaye-a good synop-
sis of which we print in another column
not only prove the untruth of the charge,
but bring up wildly, and in manner that
cannot be mistaken, the motives which led
the authors to give it publicity. Mr.. Con-
gresham Springer and his brethren of the
knights of the Golden Circle and the Sons
Of Liberty, and the whole ex-Confederate
House, had better try it again Their eff
forts to injure the characters Of the honest
leaders who saved the Union have thus far
failed to act, except as receiling boone
rangs to the injury of the Democracy.
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1876-05-04

THE LICENSE allowed ex-rebels in the
Halls Of Congress in abusing and vilifying
the loyslists of the Republic, by whose
valor the nation was rescued from the at.
tempted domination of thieves aud traitors,
is just now bearing its fruits in the South
ern States. Two Senators had to be gotten
rid of In Louisiana, to enable the White
Liners to obtain majority, and the assas-
sins bullet was the means employed to
secure the end. The untimely takiDg-of
of these unfortunate men is but the pre-
lude of still greater outrages. and we ap-
prehend ere the ides of November hundreds
of loyal men In the South will be made to
bite the dust, to the end that traitors may be
returned to Congress. If the Ku-Klux In
the South are now on the war-path, with
Gordon, Hill and Lamar in Washington,
what may the country expect when these
worthless return to their homes, and upon
the hastings make the most impassioned
appeals to their iiliterste and bloodthirsty
constituents.
