WASEINQTON, July,o3,
By the . Preeidene of the United St,
Wite-i n taa t i3, An the month of July Anzio
Domino) 1881, in accepting the condi ion of,
the civil war which was brought a . ut by
insurrection and rebellion in several .f the
States which constituted the United : • tee,
the two houses of Congress did :. . y de
clare that the war was not waged on the
part of the Gevernment in any spirit of
oripiession;ner'foi tiny iiiiipose of co g uest
or subjugation, nor for any_purpose oklcrer
throWing or interfering with the rig is or
established institutions of the States, but .
Only to defend and maintairkt he supremacy
of the Constittition of the:United Stange and
to preserve the Union with all the dignity,
equality and rights - of the several States
unimpaired, and that as soon as those oh
jects should be accomplished the warn the
partof he Gensho uld
the cease; .
_.• . ~•
Andichereae, the President of the United
States has heretofore , in the spirit of that
declaration, and with the view of seeing
for •it ultimate and mainplets effec t, set
forth several proclamations offering aes
ty and pardon to persona who had be u
or
r irizi
were concerned in the aforenamed reb llion
which— proclamations , however, were
attended with prudential reservatio and
exceptions, then deemed necessa and
proper, and which proclamations we re
spectively issued on the 28thdayof Decem
ber, 1863, on the 26th day of March, 1864,
on the Zah day of May, 1883, on the 7th
day of September, 11367-
And whereas, the said lamentable civil war ,
has long since altogether ceased, with an
aeknowledgment by all ' the - States of the
Federal Constitution and of the govern
ment thereunder, and there no longer ex
its any reasonable grounn'to apprehend a
renewalof the said - ifivil wareor any, for

And whereas, it is believed that amnesty
and pardon wilt tend to secure a complete
and universal establishment and preva
lence of municipal law and order in con
ibrimity with the Constitutionof the United
States, and to remove all appearances and
presumptions of a retaliatory or vindictive
policy on the part of the Government at

and procure complete fraternal reconcilia

submission to the Constitution and laws,
Now, therefore, be it known,
that I An
drew Johnson,President of the United
St des, do, by : of the Constitution,
and in the name of the people of the United
States, herbby proclaim and declare uncon
ditionally and without reservation, and to
all and to every person who directly or in
directly participated in the late insurrec
tion pr rebellion, excepting such - person or
persons as may be under presentment or
indictment in any. Court of the United
States having competent jurisdiction, upon
a charge of treason or other felony, a full
pardon and amnesty for the offense of tree
son against the United States; or of adher

war,with restoration of ali rights of prop

Frightful Accident-4w° Men Fail it
a Church . Steeple—Bothitillle#.
• Thursday morning, near noon, a fright
fUl accident occurred at the new oatholk
Church, St. Malachi's, nhw 'in the conria
of construction at the top of the hill oti
Washington street, West side, The walls
of the structure are complete, , and about
seventy feet of the steeple have beenoon
structed. The carpenters were yesterday
preparing to raise the beams that are to suro. - -
port the roof inposition, and for that pur
pose had erected a small derrick at the top
of the steeple. This derrick was supported
by strong guy ropes , and was to ` all appear
ances secure in every respect. The der
rick at the summit of the' steeple was
erected for the purpose 'of hoisting
the heavy timbers of a large derrick in
position in the center of the church. These"
timbers were from seventy to eighty feet In
length, and the lower;end of one of theta
rested 'on a pile of timber. A strong line
had been lowered from the small derrick
and the work of raising the heavy 'stick
commenced: The upper end had l got nearly
to the top of the steeple while the lower
portion was being' guided by a parti of
workmen down an ratline plain to the
ground; by the aid =of bars.' By some
means the great stick slipped from the
plank forming the viola and dropped about
Nu-feet to the ground: The jarandspring
(at the upper end. caused 'one 'of 'the-,.gtty
ropes of the derrick on the Eittitveti, give
way-and almost the same instant the feet or
the derrick spread apart, forcingput - aPar=

most instantly. His skull was"completely
broken up, and he scarcely moved after

aftornoon; after being conveyed to his ho
near the engine house on Huntington street.
His leg, arm and ribs were broken in addi
tion to sustaining frightful- internal injuries:
Bothmen were carpenters, the latter
having the contractto do the carpenterwork
of the church, and was assisting Henzink
and overseeing the work of raising the dev.
rick when the accident occurred. -The lat
ter went to work on the building that morn
ing for the first time, and was engaged in
stowing away the slack of the line when the
guy He was a married man; and
leaves n family at No. 53 Lidden street.
About five feet of the brick wall of the
steeple and a window was torn out by the
accident. The timber of the large. derrick

force of the concussion: The) wonder. is

Fearful Aieldent—Man
Yesterdaymoming, at an early hour as
the down freight tram' on the Western
Maryland Railroad was approaching 'the
bridge undergoing 'repairs at Rockland.,
about two miles from' the Relay - Rouse
(where , the above' road forms a. junction
with the N. C. R. R.), the , repairers failed
to stop or "flag" the train, in conserjuencto
of which the engine and four (lira ran into
the "falls," a distance of fifty-five. or sixty
- feet, and the engineer, Thomas Spurrier,
was shockingly scalded and bruised; and,
of course, almost instantly killed. Spur
rier has a fiunily, consisting of a wife and
nine cnildren, who reside at Union Bridge,
the western (present) terminus of the road.
The fireman and conductor of the train—
whose names we' were unable to- learn—
escaped with painful, but not serious in
juries. The engine was a heavy "Bald
win," and is described to have tamed
"over and over" in the frightful descent.
The carpenters had completely 'loosened or
"unscrewed" one portion of the sleepers,
and their neglect to warn, the approaching
train resulted in the above terrible accident.
