rae BIDDEPoRD STRIKE.


NH ut u cta00SSbsss
BrppErogD, June IS. The most peculiar
and, as far as can be ascertaiped, unpremed-
itated strike which has prevailed here. with
out organization or head, for the past ten days
is now terminated. The operatives return
ing TO the work on Monday with the under
standing with Mr.. Howe, the agent, that the
wages paid operatives in other places shall be
ascertained and the wages here regulated
thereby. Robert Howard of Fall River. has
been here, to-day, advising with the strikers
and much credit for the final adjustment OF
the difficulties is due to him. Whether the
strikers, except the weavers, have gained
anything must remain unknown until the re-
port Of the committee On investigation OF
wages paid in other parts of New England is
made.
BIDDEFoRD. June 10. 1t was supposed
that the difficulty between the corporations
of this place and the employees was settled
Yesterday afternoon for the present, at least,
but il seems now not to be the case. \ very
large meeting of the operators was held this
afternoon. and it was decided that the back
bows and carders should not return to work;
and as the mule spinners cannot work with
out the back boys. The whole OF the manu-
facture is virtually at standstill as ever
unless a sufficient number of experienced
back boys can be procured outside of
the strikers, and the spinners refuse to work
with green hands. The weavers propose to
return to their work in the morning, but as
they have no material to work upon, they
will be obliged to come out again. BY the
coursed they have taken, it would appear
that they are not willing to regulate their
wages according to the pay in other places.

The frequency of murders caused by
carrying pistols is causing a good deal of
comment in the newspapers. The Chica-
60 Tribune says that the trade in pistols
ought to be regulated by law as the sale Of
poisons is. The Providence Journal re-
marks upon this as follows; There is a
law in most States against the carrying
OF concealed weapons. which would an
swer the same purpose rs putting the
trade in pistols under the same regula-
ton rs that Of poisons, if it was enforced;
but it is not, and will not be until public
sentiment is aroused to the degree of ut
terly condemning the practice, or it drops
as sign of mere folly and uselsssness
No gentleman in France or England
thinks of carrying a pistol more than a
fire-escape or wearing suit of armor,
and it is equally useless in the settled re-
gions of the United States; but we have
not given up the habit. for which the civil
war was in great degree responsible
and we must suffer the consequences until
we do. Laws will not prohibit the, abun-
dance of pistols until the decent citizen
who has one would feel himself as ridic-
ulous in carrying it as he would in going
to business with musket on his shoulder.
and the crimes or criminal accidents re-
sulting from the habit are treated with
corresponding severity"

jeff Davis history is likely to prove
profitable financial speculation, but it will
fail to be accepted by the public as any
thing more than the authors attempt at
indicating his course as President OF the
Confederacy. He accuses Grant and
Sherman of incompetency and laundering
in their management of the war, the
former especially in his overland march
to Richmond, and the latter in his march
through Georgia, but if these were blum
ders the loyal people would like to have
had more of them and earlier in the strug
gle. Sherman points out that success was
a justification, and that war cannot be
carried on without violence. or as he forci
bly, puts it "war is all hell" and he adds
that he approves of Grants movement
from Washington to Richmond by land
instead of by water. Mr.. Davis complains
of the barbarism of Sherman's march
through Georgia, but General Sherman
shows that it was conducted with as little
of suffering to the invaded people as was
possible i'm movement which was neces-
sary and which shortened the war.

A TERRIBLE STORM.

Houses ana Fencing lIoved-TwO PeO-
pie Injured and other Damage
Done.
News resched the city yesterday that the
storm of Tuesday evening, which amounted
to only lively breeze here in the city,
amounted to almost cyclone some six miles
north of this city, passing from east to west
and doing considerable damage in its path,
which was only some two miles in widq
tearing down trees, upsetting houses and
blowing rail fences away. There was q
heavy fall of rain which is estimated
at four inches, followed by light hail,
The rain was hard one, and for over an
hour II poured down in torrents, turning riv-
ulets into large streams, which has caused q
decided rise in the Trinity river. The rain
fall extended nearly to the city limits on the
north and east boundaries. where there was
light rain, but no one dreamed of the terrible
storm that was raging six miles north
of hers. Several houses were moved
from their foundations by the strong
wind. Mr.. w Githert's house was moved
six inches, and his kitchen, pretty good
sized franc structure, was blown entirely of
its foundation. The house Of Mr.. John and
George Hughes was moved three inches on
foundation and the top Of their corn crib
was blown for . distance of two hundred
yards. A log house of Mr. John Field,
which was tenant and his
wife, was blown down and the latter seriously
injured by a log that struck her in the face.
John Mosely, a colored man, was struck on
the neck bya flying rail of fence and
knocked down, though his injuries are
light. There was great deal Of hay
stacked out blown away. VIVA. other dam ;
age tho storm did in Its track has not been
heard of, though it appears to have spent
itself in the Caru.h neighborhood, about six
milos north Of this CITY.
