THE BRAVE ENGINEER.
Charles Ellis Mcdonald, Killed
In the late Collision at Black
Oak Bottom.
eniont OF Saturday.

MsriiuSturs Independent OF saturday.
The engineer, Ellis Mcdonald, re-
mained at his post like a true hero, and
went down to his death with one hand
on the throttle and the other on the re-
verse bar In this position his hands
were found when his manglcd remains
were taken out of the wreck. When hc
saw the danger ahead, he "blOwed down
brakes" reversed the engine, and with
heroic resolution awaited the result OF
the inevitable crash. Before his engine
had struck, and when he saw it was
impossible to prevent run in, he
turned to his fireman and told him to
lump and save himself. These were the
last words he was heard to utter. The
fireman did not obey, but preferred to
stay and take the chances along with his
brave engineer.
The remains of Mcdonald were
brought to his homo here on Sunday
evening, and were buried on Monday.
The funeral sermon was preached IN the
VI. f. Church by Rev. J. Edwin Amos.
The funeral was one OF the largest that
has taken place here for long time. 1t
was attended by the Odd Fellows, the
Martinsburg Light Artillery, ofboth OF
which organizations he was a member }
and by the Berkeley Light Infantry.

THE IRON TRADE.
Great Revival i'm the East-Late-

Running Full Time,

PHILADELPHIA, August ..23.-That the
iron business is picking up wonderfully
in the Lehigh Valley and Western and
Central New Jersey will be apparent to
any one travelling through the country
and comparing the present aspect with
what il was few years ago. Mines,
furnaces and iorges, which have been
idle for six years, are being reOpened,
and, in many cases, work is being push
ell night and day. At Chester and Port
Dram, in New Jersey, new furnaces are
being built and new mines opened. In
the Lehigh Valley, in Pennsylvania,
change for the better is even more ap-
parent. One year ago not FIVE OF the
many furnaces and works in all this re-
gion were employing one-half OF the men
that they now have at work.

New York, August PA meeting Of
the National Workingmen' party WAS
held in Hamilton Park, to-day, David
Conroy presiding. After speaking about
the wrongs Of labor, he denounced the
shooting OF kalloCh in San Francisco as

part of capitalists to bring about a revo-
luton, and demanding the instant trial
OF the assassin for his high-handed out
rage.
The resolutions wind up as follows:
I've warn all men opposed To- free
discussions, free speech, free ballots at

WASHINGTON, August 23.---The ap-
pointment few dsys ago OF Judge W.

Treasury, by Secretary Sherman, re-
wives the indignation at the time over
the bargain between the Nichols Lonisi-
ana government and the friends OF
Hayes. 1t is now we'll known that
Sherman and Foster were parties TO this
bargain and sale, which was proved at
the time by the following:
[Confdentiall
WASHINGTON, February %, 1877.
To Governor T. T. Nichols:
We have been one week organizing
force to compel guarantees securing
your government. Conference to-day
and tonight with Sherman, Mat
thews, Dennison, Garfield and Fos-
ter. AS to the Senate, so close are the
party lines drawn that friends believe
il Kellogg and a Democrat present Gre
deutials on the ith of March there Is
great danger of Kellogg being seated.
Could we agree, rs part OF
this arrangement. TO let the long
term Senatorship remain va
cant now, and call an extra session
about the 10th of March 10 elect, and,
provided the vote on the lOng-term Sen
ator be deferred until the extra session,
we could elect. Our leading Senators
assure us that Kelloggs admission can
he prevented until the extra session
Of our Legislature can elect. This
arrangement would not prevent the in
mediate election of EuStis us a short
term Senator. There may be favorable
action by tho President Immediately.

IL is not generally known, however,
that Hoine was the means OF reaching
the HAYES circle and bringing them in
communication with the Burke crowd,
That this is the case was clearly
shown in 1873, when IIoine was be-
fore the Potter Committee in New York.
HOine became very much disafieCted al
one time, and Foster came on from
Ohio and secured him several hundred
dollars out Of the fund in the hands OF
the Republican Executive Committee,
which had been collected from govern
Went clerks. HOine Is now enjoying
comfortable salary on Sherman's TEN
porary roll in the treaOury, and he has
been booked for few speeches in the
