We observo that many of the journals
of the conn try pf the Republican persua?
sion look with no satisfaction to Ex ?Pre?
sident Johnson's return to the United
States Senate. We hope he may be sent
to the Usa i ted States Senate. I Mr. John?

the enemies ol the Constitution and the
country li ko "galled jades" may wince,
but not upon him will rest tho responsi?
bility of .this "unpleasantness." The
United States Senate needs the bold
tongue and the honest heart of Andrew
Johnson. Tennessee will honor herself
in honoring him. There aro many peo?

tho Ex-president.
A. T? STEWART ON BOCTWELL.-Presi?
dent Grant's first choice for Secretary of
the Treasury, A. T. Stewart, the great
New.York merchant, is utterly opposed
to tba present management of that de?
partment by "'bolaio the sky" Boutwell.
To a Bofe?mi?n. who recently "inter?
viewed" bim, Mr. Stewart said:
"I disapproved of the policy of Belling
gold and purchasing bonds with the pro?
ceeds thereof, believing as I do that it
will never lead us, as it is probably meant
to lead us, to specie payment. Such n
policy would not lead us to such a re?
sult in 'ten years-no, nor in a hundred.
The purchase of bonds with the pro?
ceeds of gold gives the speculators
means to carry on their operations.
"This policy is unquestionably of great
benefit to those who have no means of
their own. While solvent men will en?
tirely oppose this policy, it will be ap?
proved by those who are shaky."
Taking this open declaration of Mr.
Stewart, an influential friend of Grant,
into consideration, in connection with
other recent and significant indications,
it would not be surprising if achango in
the head of the Treasury Department
were not made shortly. Many of the
iea?ing radical presses denounce Bout
well's financial policy, and quite a num?
ber condemn bim roundly as the causo of
the great radical disasters iu Virginia
and Tennessee. If Mississippi nud Texas
should go also against radicalism, which
is now altogether probable, Bontwell will
be mado tho scape-goat to bear all the
blame.
!
THH LATH GOLD SPECCLATION.-The
New York World contains a statement
from Mr. James Fisk, Jr., from which it
appears that Mr. Fisk charges one Cor?
bin, President Grant's brother-in-law,
with being a primo mover in that-?cuu
dalous gold movement which lately so
thrilled Wall street and all New York.
The World, however, does Gen. Grant
the justice to say that it does not con?
nect him with Mr. Corbin's speculation.
The clerks in the Washington depart?
ments from Ohio, Wisconsin and Iowa,
are operating for reduced fares on the
railroads, so that they can go home and
give Jacobin votes this fall. There are
over 20? for Ohio, who havo been grant?
ed leave of absence. Mauy of these voted
at the municipal election in Washington.
But that makes no difference-"vote
early and often," is radical morality.
Jersey, Hudson and Bergen cities, N.
J., have voted by 3,000 majority to con?
solidate under one municipal govern?
ment. Hoboken, Greenville and other
places in Hudson County, voted against
consolidation, and will not join the new
city. According to the terms of the
proposition, the first three cities will
proceed to organise a separate and inde?
pendent government as a single oity.
A MOVABLE CHOIR.-A missionary on
the line of the Pacific Railroad gives the
following as part of his experience: "A
few weeks since tho writer preached in
Cheyenne, on the street, with a dry good*:
box for a pulpit. The choir were seated
in a 1 baggy, when the horse became
frightened, and away went the choir,
singing aa they went."
DEATH OF DR. HENRY THORN.-W<
learn that this gentleman died very sud
denly. of heart disease, on Thursday
last, at St. Stephen's Depot. Ho was ir
his usual health, and had traveled thal
day from his residence in Pineville to tba
depot, where, while standing on tho plat
form, he dropped suddenly dead.
A party returning to Montana iron
tho British mines discovered thc romain
of three emigrant wagons, and near then
tho skeletons of a woman and some chil
dren, who were murdered by the Black
feet Indians a year ago.
Tho negroes who were ijeoted hon
tho theatre in /Wusbingtou sued out i
warrant, yesterduy, against tho man ager
for a violation of a municipal law. Tb
latter were arrested during the day au<
gave bail.
Mrs. Jennie White committed suicide
yesterday, ih her husband's photograpbi
studio, at No. 06 Sixth Avenue, Ne*?
York, by swallowing cyanide of potas

T. H. Toubey, editor of tho St. Loui

wet*Athefol^winiKn?i4:ri ?
? 'D^DW; where, this |fuea$iorJt togfcheji us
so nearly,' ls the Tact that there woi little
real demand for gold; that merchants
did not offer it; and that, at thia, mo?
ment, large sum? are on thoi* woy to this
side from the other. The proceedings,
yesterday, were gambling transactions,
?i?re ana simple; and the gold murleet of
bo whole country was terribly shaken tb !
put four per cent, into the pockets of tho
'clique/ who control this market for the
moment. If the export demand for gold
to pay duties or balances in favor of im?
ports had been great, we could under?
stand it. However dissatisfied Southern
markets might be, they could seo somo
excuso, even if no reason. But when
such a wonderful rise can be forced by
tho manipulation of a clique, with no
reason to back them; when gold offered
in this market by the Government is not
bid for, and tho purchases and sales are
r|P|ely nominal for the sales of the mar?
gins and carrying, then it does becomo a
subject of gravo importance to us.
".Let us suppose heavy importations of
gold announced make tho bulls feel tho
moment has come to let go. Veering
round to tho beat policy, tboy mako a
clique and drop gold in an hour to 3-L
They have full power to do this to-day;
and they will have it any day that they
make a ring and control the market for a
few hours. Hero, then, is where tho shoo
{nuches the Southern producer, for so
ong ns cotton is sold for greenbacks, and
greenbacks are regulated by tho will of
tho gold gamblers of Wall street, just so
long ?3 Now Orleans, Mobile, Charleston,
or Galveston, the bond thrall of tho
sharpers, who novor touch one fibre of
cotton, nor perhaps $1,000,000 of gold
where they manipulate hundreds. At
this momeut, as ever, we send out far
less of American products than we bring
in of foreign.
"Whether there be such a thing ns n
balance of trade or not; whether it be a
fact that importing more than we export
makes us richer or poorer, tho stubborn
figures still remain that millions of gold
have to be sent abroad annually by our
merchants to pay bills for which cotton
is lacking. It is of this demand for cz- j
port gold that gold gambling was born,
and it is upon its fluctuations that it
thrives or weakens. But if the rings of
Wall street bavo become so powerful that
they can at will-and for mere gumbling
purposes-regulate the value of the
money of the Government, what guaran?
tee has the Southern planter that he
may not sell bis cotton crop for waste
paper?
"It would avail little if cotton went to
forty cents in December, if the money
received for it be depreciated-by the
advance of gold from combined demand
and ring pressure-to a purchasing pow?
er of less than thirty cents. A rise of
three per cent, yesterday and two per
cent, to-day would not take long to bring
about such a state of things, if conti?
nued. Aud that it may not bo continued
there is no guarantee whatever, however
mach we all believe that the bulls will lot
go and cause a tumble quite as rapid be?
fore tho week closes.
"But there is a security for the South?
ern sellers, and only one. And tl^t is,
to demand at every Southern port (Ufere
cotton is sold cash gold down for it,
without the unnecessary manipulation of
gold checks, or of gold value in depreci?
ated greenbacks."
On the same subject the New York
Express speaks as follows:
"The Southern movement for specie,
we trust, will be successful. If cotton
were sold for nothing but specie, that
great staple thus sold, would soon form
thc gold values of wheat, tobacco, rice,
barley, iron, timber, and other great pro?
ducts, in lieu of the now nominal politi?
cians' prices.
"Tho bankers and speculators in the
land will never restore us a specie cur?
rency, nor the politicians. Wo must
look to tho Western Pacific coast and
the South to lead off in that, when the
East and theceutrol States must follow."
Some people are afraid of the Govern?
ment at Washington if the South daro
ask for its commercial own-that is, gold
for a gold article in the markets of tho
world. To these timid ones, we com?
mend tho following from the Now York
Evening Post, an administration organ,
as well os a journal whose "hoad is level"
on tariff and financial questions, although
a monomaniac on tho black question.
Hear it:
"Many planters and merchants who
have largo dealings with foreign coun?
tries, as well as with this city, and aro
anxious for stability iu the common mea?
sure of values, earnestly advocate the
change, and there is now no legal obsta?
cle in the way, since the Supremo Court
of tho United States sustains coutrncts
for gold.
"The only possiblo means by which
gold can be restored as our currency,
without somo great disaster to trade, is
by substituting it voluntarily in the
several transactions of trade, and so
leaving tho Government free to with?
draw its paper. This must bo dono
gradually, but cannot bo done too soon.
When auy important part of the busi?
ness community shall have adopted coin
ns their money of account, tho banks
with which'they deal will do the samo;
their clearings and exchanges will be
mudo in gold; und oil their customers
will soon adopt the same plan. Every
step of this kind will prepare the way
for tho substitution of compound inte?
rest notes for greenbacks in circulation,
and for thuding them ultimately in
bonds; and Will thus be a distinct holp
to the Government in finally restoring
its credit."

rible effeots of the e^^^A of u boiler
the caneo of ?li? explosion w^
was bnt little water ia the boiler and tho
flues were greatly heated. ' The scones
that followed the explosion were terrible.
Where the engine stood there was no
perceptible trace except, au area of smok?
ed blackened ground. The Indianapolis
Journal says:
To attempt to pen a picture of the
scene were folly. Imagine 15,Out) people,
pallid with fear, rushing aud crushing to
and fro, impelled by a nameless some
thiug toward an indefinable object. Men
beuring dead and wounded into the vari?
ous halls; women shrieking and crying
for fear their husbands, sons or brothers
might be among the killed; strong men
convulsed and in tears because tempora?
rily separated from iheir wives and chil?
dren, and in suspense as to their safety.
A large piece of the boiler, which must,
have weighed 500 pounds, was carried to
a distance of 100 yards. One .smaller
piece was thrown cloar into tho timo
track, and skipping over it, buried itself
in the sod beyond. Another large picco
was thrown Westward, clear over tho
dyke npon the cattle pen. In almost
every direction smaller pieces of the ma?
chinery were thrown, and tho air was
literally full of splinters, bolte, screws,
nuts, pieces of rods, and such of the
lighter portions of the engine. Innume?
rable aro the stories told of how deadly
missiles alighted just in front of the peo?
ple, arrested by a gracious Providence in
their deadly flight. The following aro
among the horriblo incidents of the ca?
tastrophe:
A man walking in frout of tho Execu?
tive headquarters was startled at seeing
the skull of a man drop in front of him,
tho flesh actually scalded off the bones,
but tho eyes and teeth still remaining in
their sockets and jaws. Several yards
from tho disaster was found a pair of
legs, held together by tho merest shred
of flesh. At one place was the headless
trunk of aman; nt another was the leg
of a woman, with her boot and stocking
and a part of her drawers still upon it;
the arm of a man was driven into a pop?
lar board; while uot far from Power
Hull was seen tho body of a man so hor?
ribly mutilated that his heart, stomach,
liver and lungs could readily bo seen.
When first discovered, his heurt was
still palpitating, and the motion of the
orgau was plaiuly observed.
In tho Agricultural Hall were lying
four bodies, a jumbled, almost unrecog
1 nizable mass of charred, roasted and
scalded humauity. Mr. John E. Fouda
ry, with a friend, was sittiug in a car?
riage on the East sido of Power Hall.
They both saw a piece of tho boiler
coming toward them, when Mr. Fouda
ry's friend pushed him aside, and the
deadly irou imbedded itself in the
ground not three feet behind him. Tho
scalp of a man was found near the stair?
way to tho amphitheatre. A mother and
three children were standing in a group
near tho boiler. The mothor was in?
stantly killed, and two of the children
badly scalded. The third escaped unin?
jured. A gentleman and lady were walk?
ing by with locked arms. The gentle?
man was killed nnd the lady uninjured.
Quite a number of persons were thrown
to the ground with considerable force,
many of whom wero picked up in au in?
sensible condition. A baby wagon was
struck by a piece of the flying iron, and
the wagon utterly demolished, but tho
child in it left unhurt.
A picco of the boiler was blown into
thc cattle shed 200 yards, where it pass?
ed through the roof and knocked thc
tips off the horns of the mammoth ox,
but doing him no other injury.
Mr. E. A. Vinton and his daughter
were sittiug in a buggy about fifty yards
away, looking at thu running of the
mills, when a piece of thc boiler struck
tho horse, killing him instantly, and up?
setting the buggy, throwing both of thc
occupants out, but doing them no seri?
ous harm.
A piece of a man's head, showing a
part of the forehead, the noso and left
sido of tho lace, tho hair and whiskers
very black, slightly tinged with grey,
was found near the Executive office.
One of P. L. Davis* arms was blown
over 100 yards from the placo where he
fell dead. His body was otherwise terri?
bly mutilated.
In a lumber pile, jaear the place where
the boiler stood, were found some of the
remains of a man literally wadded into
the instertices between the planks. Ono
woman, inquiring for her husband, asked
one of the reporters if bis name was
upon the list of killed. It was, but the
man could not summon the courage to
tell tho poor bereaved wife, and he put
her off with an evasion.
At the undertaker's, the scene was ter?
rible. In the back yard and rear shops,
upon .rude planks and benobes, were
stretched tho dead. Tho mutilations
were fearfnl, and cannot fitly be de?
scribed. Blackened and begrimed, dusty
and bloody, with protruding eyo-balls,
lolling tongues and clenched hands, tho
dead lay, silent but fearful witnesses,
calling for a prompt, thorough and fear
loss investigation of tho disaster of which
thoy are tho fearful relics.
A terriblo earthquake occurred in
Peru, August 24. Tho Pacific Steam
Navigation Company's steamer Payta
was damaged. The earthquake was so
severe as to throw down passengers on
tho steamer. It lifted a heavy iron safe
in tho purser's room, and raised the ves?
sel entirely out of the water. Tho shock
was not repeated; had it been, the vessel
would undoubtedly have been lost. Thc
peaks of the mountain on shore were
seen to tumble down and crumble away.
The inhabitants of Callao and other
??laces along the Pacific eoast were flee
ng into the interior, and all valuable
products being removed.

"Row To Do IT. "-The position the
Enquirer has taken in reference to politi?
cal agitation seems to be mistaken by the
press of the State for a disinclination to
make any activo opposition to the radi?
cal party. Thc PHCBNIX and the Charles?
ton News, two journals for which we en?
tertain tho highest respect, seem to have
put this construction upon the Enquirer's
exposition of its views. In order to cor?
rect th is misapprehension, wo refer to
the matter once more; but for fear of
being decoyed into that very agitation
which we deprecate, this will be our last
explanation on this subject.
It is undoubtedly true that negro votes
are required for the overthrow of tho ra?
dical party. The only differenco of opi
uion is as to the best method of obtain?
ing them. Our cotempornries look to
continual agitation as the quickest
menus. We doubt whether this means
will accomplish its end, for the reason
that it does not reach the dais to be af?
fected. Well-written articles, abounding
in unanswerable arguments, exercise no
influence over voters who cannot read.
The most convincing and eloquent
speeches fail in their intention, when
addressed to ignorant men who have no
confidence in the speaker, but, on the
contrary, belong, soul and body, with
reason or without it, tc the radical party.
Now, whilo we do not see any chance for
Democratic argnment to in linen ce. this
mass of ignorance, we believe there are
means by which it can be stirred up.
The News says they already feel indirect?
ly the weight of taxation, and desire to
throw it off. All that is necessary, then,
is to make them feel it directly; and this
can bo done before the next election, if
tho people of tho State will adopt the
plan proposed by York, and require
every laborer who works for a share of tho
crop to pay a fair proportion of the tax
on whatever land be works. This will
bring thc subject of radical taxation
homo to tho negroes, in a form which
they can comprehend. It will produce
agitation just where it is wanted, viz:
among themselves. Occupying this po?
sition, tho Democratic party can afford
to wait, and let tbc medicino work, with?
out exhibiting any extra anxiety to per?
suado negroes to become Democrats.
[ Ybrkville Enquirer.
Voltaire, in that bitter but just satire
of his, "LTugenu," makes his young
man from the Huron hunting-grounds
revolt at tho intramural burials observed
by him when ho visited European "civi?
lization." Sinco Voltaire's time, tho
question of post-mortuary consignment
has often been revived, and yetbutlittlo
progress has boon made towards reform
in a matter of such obvious importance
to humanity, ns tho disposal of the dead
so that they may not injure the health of
the liviug. Tho average of annual ?nter
mente in tho cemeteries of Paris amounts,
wc nre told, to no less than 60,000, and
one of the questions of the day there at
present is, "What shall we do with our
dead?" Conspicuous rmong tho investi?
gators of this subject, is Dr. Jules Le
maire, the author of many valuable
essays upon chemistry and its cognate
branches of science Comparisons have
frequently been made between certain
so-called "barbarous" nations in their
disposal of their dead and the usage in
that respect of so-called "civilized" peo?
ples, and such comparisons are generally
much to the disadvantage of tho latter.
Dr. Lemaire suggests a middle course
between intermeut as practised by civi?
lized nations, and the cremation by
which certain barbarous races reduce
their dead to ashes. He has discovered
tbat, by injecting the arteries of dead
animals with a tincture obtained from
coal-tor, tho process of putrefaction is
absolutely arrested. This he has proved
by hundreds of successful experiments.
lu some oases, whore the bodies of dead
animals, in an advanced state of decom?
position wero thus treated, tho disinfec?
tion of them was immediate, and the
carcasses, when exposed to the air, soon
became quite dry. Several of these
bodies havo been kept for moro than Ave
years without displaying the least symp?
toms of putrefaction. Cemeteries, then,
in which human bodies thus preserved
have been buried, will be free from the
poisonous exhalations to which so much
disease may be traced, while, as Dr. Le?
maire says, it will be a consolation to re?
latives to know that tho remains of those
who wero doar to them, have not been
consigned to that process of decomposi?
tion tba very idea of wbioh is so repug?
nant. He further suggests that, in course
of time, os tho cemeteries become en?
cumbered with bodies, tho process of
cremation may be periodically resorted
to for their clearance This, however,
as it appears to us, merely involves a
question oe to whotber progrens will not
in time disabuse people of tho repug?
nance generally attached to tho idea of
having tho bodies of deceased friends
reduced to ashes in the first instance,
witbout recourse to any process of ?om
balming.-New York World.
