the building was occupied by num-
Der of people, no one but Corbin was
injured and he not fatally. 1t is rot
known who placed the powder in the
building. but Corbin asserts that it
was done by some of the villagers,
and is the outcome of his refusal to
cease selling liquor in the village.
About four years ago building he &C
cupied as saloon was demolished by
gunpowdcr, and Corbin left the town,
only returning IA short time ago, but
all attempts to arrest the guilty par
ties proved failures. The damage to
the hotel and numerous adjoining
buildings will be about 5000. The
citizens of Westerville insist that,
while they favored resorting to strin-
gent measures to prevent liquor sell
ing in their town, they never favored
such measures as those resorted to
last night.

Report on the Ovsr-Issued Bonds.

The Philadelphia North vfmericah
says: 1t has been learned that the
forthcoming report OF the Legisla
tive Committee recently inquIring
into the alleged over-issue of State
bonds will, when ready, contain in
substance the following: That the
committee have found that 100000
of the loan of May 4, 1852, had been
used in taking up over due loans of
the State, and 100 of them. of $1,000
each, had not been used, but left with
the Girard Bank, having been found
there by State Treasurer Bickel the
day previous to his retiring from
office The Bank gave a receipt for
them to Joseph Bailey, the succeed
ing State Treasurer, and he in turn
handed it over to Eli X. Slifer, his
successor. Henry S. McGraw be-
came Treasurer in 1856, and in De
cember of that year had settlement
with the bank. The institution had,
it appears, used S49,00 of the bonds,
and was unable to deliver them to
McGraw. But in lieu of these it de
livered to him S2S,000 of the five per
cent. certificate loan and twenty-one
bonds of $1,000 each OF the loan OF
the 4th of May, 1852, and fifty-one
bonds of the loan of the 18th OF
April. 1853. OF $1,000 each. Nc.
Graw received Ut the same time the
interest which had accrued and a
check for the difference between the
market value of the five per cent
certificate loan and the bonds which
had been used

In response to an invitation to at
tend a proposed grand reunion of
the survivors of the Federal and Con
federate armies, to take place at Sails
bury. y. c., on the 23d of October
next, General w. L. Sherman replies
as follows:
The time is too remote for ME to
make a promise, but 1 assure you that
it would be most agreeable to me
personally and socially to meet You
on any suitable occasion. There is
no use in my mincing terms. When
ever and wherever the honest men of
North Carolina meet to allay section
al and party animosities and to cult
vate feelings of fraternity and re
spect for their fellow-citizens of the
United States, it will be to me most
tempting to come. To Salisbury
would far prefer to come alone than,
as before, with vast army, leaving
desolation behind. But l must not
be construed as asserting to the
proposition that Confederate men and
Union men were alike worthy of Il
celebration for the terrible history OF
1S61-65. / would much prefer to
come on some civic occasion when all
are absolutely equal, all alike inter
ested in the present and future glory
of our common country. There were
very few Union soldiers in North Car
olina during the war, though we be
heve the people were generally op-
posed to secession and war, 50 that
your meeting, if confined to survi-
wing soldiers III North Carolina, VIII
be in fact n Confederate reunion,
wher. l would certainly he out OF
place Ali soldiers in their social re-
unions glorify their deeds Of heroism,
and this reunion Will hardly be an
and 1t would be IA strange
sight for General Sherman to cheer
tbe victories OF his enemies and re
spond to the claims that because the
soldiers of North Carolina were brave
and true to their State and section
their cause was as sacred as ours,
which finally triUmphed and made
our Union more giorions and more
resplendent than before. Were /
present and should you suppress this
natural feeling 1 would feel myself

Mr.. MawthOrne's Diamond
PIN.

4 Mr. Hawthorne, who came here
from New York, few days ago, on
visit, says the Cincinnati Commercial,
had an experience on Broadway which
is unparalleled Setting off his very
handsome dress was $500 diamond
pin, the diameter of which was about
half an inch. While sarntering up
Broadway he stopped IN front Of
Haggertys produce establishment,
and bent over = pile Of coops to watch
the antics OF some of the chickens
which were feeding. The diamond
caught the eye of silly fow,-a hen,
of course-and, darting her head be-
tween the laths, she seized the gem.
Unfortunately the fastening was not
what it should have been. and a sharp
Jerk tore 1t loose. The hen swallow
ed the diamond, and Mr. Hawthorne
attempt to catch it gave her such a
fright that she rushed among the
other chickens and lost her identity.
so far as he was concerned He went
into the store to complain, and was
delayed somewhat. When he came
out again the coops had ali been
moved, and Hawthorne could not
even recognize the 5000 one. A con-
ference was held with Haggerty, and
it was agreed that the only way to
make sure of the jewel was to kill all
the chickens in all the coops. This
was not a great undertaking for the
house supplies hotels with dressed
chickens, and would not have much
trouble in disposing of the lot SO
Haggerty agreed that if he was al
lowed % cents dozen for killing i'm
mediately he would find the diamond.
The coops were carried to the dress
ing ard the ~ dozen chickens
were killed. The S5Sth chicken had
the diamond carefully slowed away
inside, and Mr. Hawthorne gladly
paid SIS for the killing and so to
the woman who found the diamond.

WHEN the wickedest of all rebel
lions was begun the Republican party
declared its purpose to put 1T down.

understanding that just as soon as
the pressure would be somewhat hit
ed a resumption of gold and silver

would be redeemed In coin. The
Democrats predicted that redemption
could never come, and in conjunction
