ITEMS FROM THE SOUTH.

A TERRIFIC boiler explosion occurred at
Harpers Roller Mill, in Newport, Ky. The
betting slipped from large fy-whcel in the
engine room, causing the wheel to explode,
and piece weighing ton or more struck
two boilers near by, causing them to blow
up. Another piece of wheel went up in the
air and landed on the river bank quarter
of a mile distant. Full 100 persons were in
and around the mill at the time, and it
seems miraculous that the casualties are 80
few. James Swift had his leg broken and
was seriously burned; Chris Risch had his
back broken; William Golden was injured
in the left leg, and had several bad cuts in
the head; man named Matthews and sew
eral others slightly hurt. The pecuniary
loss is about $4,000.

cation. He said he would return with the

was double barrel shot gun.

ress of our race. It seems Co be for the
present and the future time a question such
as the freedom of conscience was three ceu-
turtles ago, and such as political liberty was
at Che close of Che las. century. The rights
to free worship and free government were
