The reelection of w. U. Hensel as
chairman of the Democratic State
Committee last week was well de-
served compliment to faithful and
efficient officer. He did not seek the
position, and bis selection was sponta-
neous and hearty, and thorough en-
dorsement of his management of the
campaign. No one else was nomina-
ted, but when molten was made that
he be elected by acclamalion, it was
opposed by young man from Phila-
dephia, who did not think Hensel was
sufficiently acquainted with the details
Of a campaign to make successful lea

mittee made similar speeches, and then
the vote was taken, resulting in nays,

success appears by the almost unani-

General Grants article on the Battle
of Shiloh, published in the February
number of The Century, has awaken
ed much criticism, and aroused several
old soldiers who claim that Grant has
done them an injustice. General A.
Med. McCook says that what is said
about him is absolutely without foun-
dation in fact, and that he will shortly
call attention to a few matters con-
cerning the Battle of Shiloh and his
part therein that will prove this. He
says that Grant has persistently pur-
sued him for twenty two years. Grants
"reminiscences will no doubt cause much
dispute among the army men, as no
two will be apt to remember things ex-
actly alike. In this way the public
may get the whole inside history of the
late war.

The State senate spent considerable
time on Tuesday over some nomina-
tions sent in by the Governor for the
office of Notary Public. One person
was rejected because he was in the
rebel army, and the son of Rear Ad-
miral of the U. S. Navy was rejected
because he is democrat. Senator
Cooper took occasion to wave the
bloody shirt, and fight the war over
again, forgetful of the precedents estab-
lished by his own party in the appoint
ments to office of Longstreet, Mosby,
Ackerman, Key aud hosts of other
rebel leaders who have embraced re-
publicanism. And yet high private
in the Confederate service cannot be
appointed to the unimportant place of
Notary, aud this is called loyalty.

Columbia county is recognized by
the Democracy of the state as one of
their most reliable strongholds. Moth
ing has ever swerved her from the path
of true democracy. Republican perse-
cution and Republican money have
failed to change the result OF any elec.
tion, and she can always be counted on
for good big majority for the Demo
cratic ticket. When meeting with
representative Democrats from every
quarter of the state, it is pleasant to be
congratulated upon the condition of
things in our county.

DYNAMITE In LONDON.
THREE GREAT EXPLOSIONS.
THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT AND THE
TOWER OF LONDON BADLY SHATTERED.


London is in frensied state of ex-
citement over the recent attempt 10 de-
s,roy property aud life by the use of
dynamite First came the explosion
at the London Bridge by which that
ancient structure was considerably
damaged. Then followed the Tunnel
and the Scotland Yard events, and
these were followed by an attempt on
Saturday afternoon last to blow up the
Parliament Houses and the Tower of
London. Immediately before the first
explosion at Westminster, a lady visi-
tor, who was alone and about to enter
the building, beckoDed to policeman,
and when he went to her she called his
attention to package lying outside
the steps of the crypt. The officer
picked it up carelessly, not suspecting
its deadly nature, when the explosion
occurred.
With the sound the big burly guard
went down, and with him, in close vi
cinity, two comrades of the London
force fell. The man who had carried
the package is dying, the others are
suffering from the shock. There were
many injured. A lady and gentleman
standing by were prostrated, boy was
thrown on his face and a little girl tot
tered to the wall. The great window
over the main entrance to Westminster
Hall was smashed to atoms and all
the side windows were blown out.

THE SCENE IN THE COMMONS.

There was only lapse of three min.
utes when the terrible report again
sounded. 1t came directly from under
tie strangers gallery, facing the
Speaker, in the Commons. The scene
was of an APPALLING character. The
Western extremity of the hall was to-
tally wrecked. Under the peers gal
lery on the Government side all the
woodwork was shattered and hole
was made through the floor. The gal,
lery itself was displaced, and even the
solid stonework of the doorways was
either pulverized or shifted from its
position. Every pane of glass was
shattered. The gallery benches We're
overturned and broken the Speakers
chair was destroyed ; the seat which
Bradaugb occupies when present as a
visitor was demolished, and the glass
roof was broken to pieces.
The seat of Gladstone, the premier,
Jared the fate of that of the great Rad
ical from Northampton, and all the
decorations and sculpture were ruined
1t might be said that the place where
the explosion occurred was literally
blown to pieces. Those in the House
at the time say the shock experienced
was something akin to that of an
earthquake, that the building in its en-
tirety seemed to be giving way.
