drove by in bis carriage, the children en
deavored to jump on behind, when the little
boy got his leg in the wheel, and before the
horses could be stopped his leg was so
horribly mangled that amputation became
necessary, which was done by Dr. J. Jack

. Sad. and Fatal, Accident. Hsnrt W.
FssssTTof VVinhank . Township, in 'this
county, accidentally shot himself on -Friday
Int. The circumstances of this terrible ac
:ident, s we have learned them, are as 'fol
lows : "
He wits cleaning a rifle supposing it 'to
re unloaded and getting the ramrod fast In
the barrel be polled on it at the muzzle While
his young son held the breec.b'of the gun.
The piece being loaded was accidentally
discharged, and its contents, ramrod and
wadding and loading passed through his
body at or near the'hertt. He exclaimed:
"I am a dead man V and taking a step or
two, fell down a lifeless corpse. Though
quite a young man, he leaves a wife and
several small children to mourn his untimely
death.
Thus in the prime and vigor of manhood,
fell one of the most energetic and intelli
gent citizens ot our county. . His loss is not
only a sad bereavement to his family but a
misfortune to the community id which he
lived. AorfA Branch Democr iL
The Working Clauei.
The wrongs of the working classes are
closely hidden under a vail" of purirus
prosperity. Because working men receive
generally a little higher wages than form
erly, it is said they are prospercae and
happy. But this is not so. Look at Hi in
its true light. tQnder tbe reign of Shoddy
a man may roceive fifty per cent., perhaps
double, for his week's work, compared
with his wages before the war. Jul is he
a gainer ? Let him answer :
''I now pay three times more than for
merly for nearly, every article of clothing
for my (airily, and double, ot more for cof
fee, tea, sugar, and all other neccessaries ot
life. 1 find it- growing every day more
difficult to make my income square off my
outgoes, to say cothing ot tbe impassibility
ef laying up anything against a rany
day."
SLCh is an Abolition and Shoddy "pros
perity" which is rung in the ears of our
workingmen when their votes are wsnted
to help shoddyhes to fat contracts and dem
agogues to fat offices. The seeming pros
perity is hollow ; it is a lie upon its face.
It raises the waives of labor for a time, and
at the same ttruo increases, to a. ranch
greater extent, the price of every article
the laborer must buy for himself and larnily.
Ia the mean time Shoddy gets well paid for
its investments ; Abolition parasites get
rich offices and plenty ol public plunder,
and are merry and jubilant over the ruin of
their country, and the poverty and misery
that have come ad are. coming upon its
toiling millions.
The Sword Tote.
The sword vote of the New York Fair is
over, and ended as all anticipated U would.
McClellar. had by tar the greatest number
of admirers; Grant the most votes. At the
last moment tbe administration party came
in with their ten thousands. We are glad
the decision is thus. McCIellan is not al
lowed to use his sword ; the Administration
gives him no chance; they overrule every
officer who wishes to recall him to service,
and of what valne is a sword to him 1 We
hope our Philadelphia Fair, if it has a
sword vote; will not have the foolishness to
place the cotst upon tbe New York basis.
Let the aspirants for tbe sword be the Gen
erals who wear the Administration spurs
Butler and Sickles and any one of the nu
merous Smith family ; Joshua T. Owens
and Charley Collins, Neal Dow, or Schenck
Greeley, who marshals tbe three hundred
thousand, who are always so very anxious
to get into Richmond. These ate the men
to be presented with swords ; their calibre
is so very nearly equal that there will be an
exciting contest. Our vote, if it is not giv
en for John Pope, will be cast for Grierson,
or perhaps for Major General Napoleon
Jackson Tecumseh Dana.
The New York Evening Exprtst thus sums
up the history of the affair :
The sword contest shows that General
Grant beat in dollars and McClellan in num
bers. Four packages put into the Seven
teenth street box on Saturday contained far
more money than tbe large majority for
Grant. The vote irr Grant in secret in lour
hours was 520,644 against 89,647 voted in
public in three weeks. In other words, the
open handed vote gave McClellan a major
ity of 32,256, while the secret vote, made
up by large subscriptions, gave Grant a ma
jority of $15,782 over all. The sword yields
the pretty sum of 544,963. The result was
expected by many who kcew the secret
means to secure it. General Grant, a de
serving and successful Seer, gains the
eword,and General McClellan has witnessed
a new evidence of the devotion of some
thousands of people to his name, fame aud
tried patriotism."
General McClellan.
The correspondent of the Chicago Times,
in one of bis late letters stales, that General
Grant had insisted on the reinstatement of
General McClellan to a position . of active
service in the army, and that -the President
had reluctantly consented. General Grant
has taken pains to ascertain the . wishes of
the army on this point daring the last few
days, and be has found thatr there is a
unanimous desire oa the part of officers
and men for the restoration of their beloved
chief. He sees that the army is in the
highest state of efficiency. It is impossible
for him to lead that army in person, and he
has never seriously thought of doing so, no
matter what may be said, to the contrary.
Another correspondent denies :his asser
tion, which is more probable, as follows :
'The army will move during the early part
of May not before. It is the wish of Gen.
Grant to give General McClellan a promi
nent position, but the Administration have
insisted upon overruling his wishes, and
promise bim a 'carte blanche in everything
else, provided he will not insist upon this
point" The Administration have great
dread of General McClellan, and its all bosh
to think of hi receiving a command at the
present time. If we have another second
Bull Run, and want another Antietam fight
then, and not till then; will be receive a
command. , "r '"
NEWS.
From the army of to Potomac there is
very little beyond rurjors. B intelligence
from Richmond we learn that it was the im
pression there that Gam contemplated an
immediate movement as be was bringing
up 'his rear guard (nd concentrating his
aftrfy. The Confedeate forces in the She
nandoah Valley are being increased daily,
and there is some antiety felt at Harper's
Ferry. " The enemy in the valley, however,
do not advance north af Manassas Gap. On
the Rapidan the 'Confederates show every
sin ot activity.. -It is reported that Hoke's
'Command, which captured Plymouth, 'has
lelt North Carolina'for -Richmond. If this
be so, active operations on the Rapidan can
not long be delayed.: -. -
The Confederates in Charleston harbor
have made an at;erapt to blow up the frig
age Wabash, but the torpedo being discov
ered, a broadside wa fired at it and wheth
er it sank or escaped is not leuown. The
terpedoes are numerous in the harbor and
the principal business of the fleet seems to
be to watch frtr them. Morris Island is re
ported to be gradually washing away.
There is a little news Irom North Caroli
na. The Federal troops have at length had
a success in that quarter. They have de
stroyed a salt woik, breaking potsand pans,
and destroying steam pumps and boilers.
A large wind mill was also blown to frag
ments. Where all this ocourred is not sta
ted. There is nothing from Plymouth or
Newbern. .
.An arrival from New Orleans brings some
later intelligence Irom the Red River, but
nothing of much importance. What tbe
army is at, is ndt fiisri nelly stated.
The Confederates have attacked an out
picket at Chattanooga, completely defeating
it, and holding the battle ground. The Fed
eral loss was thirty one. -
"General Forrest seems to march w th a
rapidity which almost rivals Stonewall Jack
son. He has not attacked Decatufr, in Ala
bama, the extreme right of tbe Chattanoo
ga army. After the Fort Pillow rffitir For.
rest went south to Memphis, and, at the
same time, ordered a force which watched
the Federal Garrison, at Vickborg, to move
to Jsckson. Memphis was frightened for a
short time, but the enemy disappeared, and,
almost at "the same time", the Confederates
withdrew from Jsckon northward lo Can
ton. The two columns united at Holly
Springs. The marches were long, but near
1 all of Forest's troops are roovnted and
moved with celerity. They are reported to
he marching on Decatur, and have taken a
position ten miles west of the town. Tbe
garrison there has sent aid to Huntsville,
thirty miles distant, but the forces at bo'b
places being quite small, it is ancertain
what resistance they can make. Decatur
is too far distant irom Chattanooga to get
speedy assistance from fherman. There
are all kinds of rumors of a battle at Deca- '
tor but nothing definite. General Forrest
has nnt abandoned Eastern Kentucky. He
still holds it, though bis torce roust be
small.
From the Red River the Federal troops
are reported entrenched at Grand Ecore,
and the Confederates moving upon them.
Very little that is definite is yet known of
the movements' of either army since the
battle, though Backs has very likely placed
the Red River between him and his ene
mies. The Federal losses at the recent bat
tle are thirty-four hundred killed and wo sti
lled and four thoasand prisoners. Admiral
Porter in a letter to the Secretary of the Na
vy confirms the accounts of the disaster and
also the report lhat the Confederates bad let
the water out bf the river. Hi regards the
expedition as a failure.
There are still nothing but rumors from
the army of the Potomac. Every accouct
agrees that General Lee is still bringing for
ward reinforcements, and it seems almo.-t
certain that North Carolina has been aban
doned by the Confederates, who have gone
northward. Affairs on the Rapidan are very
near a crisis.
The guerrillas are ssid to be swarming
around Fort Smith ia Arkansas. General
Blunt has been ordered there but has no
troops to command.
There is nothing from Newbern.

These Bonds are issue'd under the Act
rif congress of March 8th, 1864, wh.ich
provides that all Bonds issued nnder thi
Act shall be EXEMPT FROM TAXATION
by or nnder any state or municipal author
ity. Subscriptions to these. Bonds are re
ceived in Uuit ed States notefa or notes of
National Banks. They are TO BE RE
DEEMED IN COIN, at the rileasure of th
Government, at any period r.ot less than
ten nor'rribre than forty years from their
date, and until their redemption FIVE
PER CENT. INTEREST WILL BE PAID
IN COIN, on Bonds ol not over one hun
dred dollars annually and on all other
Bonds , semi-annually. The interest if pay
able on the first days of March and Sep
tember in each year.
Subscribers will receive either Regis
tered or Coupcyj Bonds, Is they may pre
fer. Registered Bonds are recorded on the
books of the U. S. Treasurer, and can be
transferred only on the owner's Order
Coupon Bonds are psyable to bearer, and
are more convenient for commercial use's.
Subscribers to this loan will -have the
option of having their Bonds draw interest
from March 1st, by paying the tccnied in
terest in coin (or in Un led States notes,
or the notes of National Banks, adding fif
ty per cent, for pre minm, or teceive them
drawing interest from the date of subscrip
tion and deposit. As these Bonds are
Exempt from Municipal or 5 State
Taxation,
their value ia increased from one to three
per cent, per annum, according to the rate
of tax levies in various parts of the coun
try. A the present rate of premium on gold
they pay
OVER EIGHT PER CENT INTEREST
in currency, and are of eqnal convenience
as permanent or temporary investment.
It is believed that no securities offer so
great inducements to lenders as the various
descriptions of U S. Sonds. In ail other
forms of indbtednes, the faith or ability
of private parlies or stock companies or
separate communities only ia pledged for
payment, while for the debts of the United
Siates the whole property of the country
is holden to secure the payment of both
principal and interest in coin.
These Bonds may be subscribed fot in
sums Irom ioo up to any magnitude, on
the same terms, and are thus made equally
available to the smallest lender and tbe
largest capitalist. They can be converted
into money at any moment, and the bolder
will have the benefit of the interest.
It may be useful to state in this connec
tion that the total Funded Debt of the
United States on which interest is payable
io gold, on the 3d day of March, 1864, was
5768,965,000. The interest on this "debt
for the coming fthcal year will be 54 5,837,
126, while she customs revenue in gold
for the current fi-al year, ending June
30th, 1864, has been so far at the rate of
over S10JV000.000 per annum.
It wilTte seen that even the present
gold revenues of the Government are large
ly in excess of the wants of the treasury
for the payment of gold interest, while the
recent increase ef the tariff will doubtless
raise the annual receipts from cotoms on
the same amount of importations, to 5150,
000.000 per annuim
Instructions to the National Banks act
ing as loan agents were not issued from

The mo; remarkable medicine ot the
day, and ihe many cures that have been
performed with it in cases of Liver Com
plaint, Dii-prpfeia, Nervous Debility, and
other difenses arising from a duordered;
stomac or liver, places It at once amon
the most atonishia discoveries that ha
taken place in the medical world. The"
diseases to which bitters are applicable im
so universal that there are but few of our
friends who may n"t last their virtues ' m
their own families or circle of acquaintan

there is at least one remedy among the
many advenieed medicine deserving the
