It will be remembered that some 'Weeks
ago says a correspondent, Major Dixon, pay ,
master was shot and killed near :Alexandria,
Va., by Dr. Maddox, of Fauquier county.—
After the death of Major Dixon, who was
one of the staunchest Union men in the coun
try, the ex-rebels determined to drive his un
protected widow from the county of Fauqui
er, and they proceeded in guerilla style to
burn her house over her head, at the dead
hour of night, A kind Providence, howev
er, averted the doom intended, and the fire
kindled against her door failed to ignite the
louse. This attempt was sufficient, howev
or, to drive Mrs Dixon from her home, and
she is again an exile in Wishington from
her home and from her native State, as she
has been during the past five years.

allow the Union men of the South to suffer
persecution now for having been Erne to the

MAKING MISTORt RAPIDLY.--ten years
ago, Wm. Lloyd Garrison was in derission
called an Abolitionist. He was stoned,, al
most hunted from town to town, and denied
the right of speech in three-fourths of the
United States. To-day he is welcomed eve
rywhere, sough! as a' lecturer, and has re
cently spoken in South .ParOlina.
About six years ago Gov. Henry A. Wise.
hung John Brown, because he was an Abo
litionist. To-day •the same Governor Wise
stands at the gate of Andrew Johnson, whom
the Copperheads styled the "Boorish Tai
lor," begging for a pardon, with the privi
lege of styling himself an Abolitionist the
remainder of hisodays. Are not the rulings

Gov. Faison* of Alabatha having asked
the withdrawal of the Federal troops from
the State and the arming of the local militia,
Gen. Giant has made the following reply:—
."For the present, and until there is full
security for equitably maintaining the rights
and safety of all classes of citizens in the
States lately in rebellion, I would not recom
mend the withdrawal of the United States
troops from them. The number of interior
garrisons might be reduced, but a movable
force sufficient to insure tranquility should
be retained. While such a force is retained
in the South I doubt the propriety of putting
arms ut the hands of the militia."

RAiLlitab FEELING.—In November . last
a proposition on the part of the Gettysburg
Railroad Company, for the extension of their
road to'"this place was made to the citizens
of thisßalley. For $150,000 the company
agree to complete the road to this place in
two years from June next. Considering the
wealth and extent of country. through which
the road must pass from Gettysburg to this
pla - c - eTtire - proposi tien-m net—be—regarded- _as
fair and reasonable. 8150,000 to place this
whole region of country in direct communi
cation with Baltimore and other Eastern
markets ! Compared-to the advantages to
be derived from the road the sum is really
an insignificant one. Washington township
has wealth enough cf itself to make Up this
amount, but she is onlyasked to lead off and.
do her part fairly and other sections will lend
a helpine hand. Of this there is not a doubt.
The advantages to be thus secured are not
to be temporary but permanent—to us it is
therefore amazing that an apathy should now
prevail among our people in regard to this
matter—a matter fraught with so much in
terest to every class of citizens of the town
and entire country. The opportunity to put
ourselves in communication with the busi
ness marts of the East is now, and perhaps
for the last time, at our option.
The business men of our town and the far
mers of the country generally are mutually
interested for the success of the proposed
railroad extension, and they should act 'in
concert and act promptly, for the time allot
ted for the work is fast passing swab and
but little has yet been accomplished. For
the credit of our town and country let it not
be said that this golden opportunity was per
mitted to pass beyound our grasp without
even an effort on the part of the' people to
improve it. Taking into consideration rail.
road advantages in general to a business and
agricultural community we can conceive it
hardly possible that a single intelligent busi
ness man or farmer should be found here un
willing to contribute of his means and influ
ence to filis great work. We would almost
as soon be branded with the opprobrious ep
ithet of "rebel" as to be charged with oppos
sing this much needed enterprise.. Such
men not only put a barrier in the *ay of
their own interests but 'seek to retard the
progress and prosperity of the community at
large. There is one class only for whom
there is the least excuse, and they are almost
invariably found in opposition to enterprises
of public benefit from native ignorance.
To the friends of the railroad in our town
and totOnship we once more appeal for a re
newal of the work of canvassing for the sale
of stock. • The enterprise is worthy of all ef
fort,and should earnestly engage the attention
of each and every one for the iew months
yet remaining for the work.
TENPERANCE lfl kaisd.—A meeting will

THE BOYD•HILL TRAGEDY.
Execution of allarschall and Frecke
PITTSBURG, Jan. 12., 1866 —To-day the
last scene in the terrible Boyd•hill tragedy
was enaeted.—The murderers, Frecke and
Marachall have paid the penalty of their
crimes, and the curtain falls. They were re
cently convicted of the murder of a Ger
man named Foerster; at Boyd's Hill, near
this city. Throughout the whole of last
night and up to the time of his execution
this morning, Frecke walked the narrow lim-
its of his cell. His spiritual adviser, Rev.
G. A. Wensell, of the Lutheran Church, was
_with him, and sought by all means in his
power to prepare the wretched being for his
inevitable fate.
This morning-he was fresh and in good
spirits, and at about eleven o'clock, shaking
hands with the . sheriff, said in German, "I
have no fear of death." He was dressed in
a suit of dark gray, with a .large colored
handkerchief about his neck. His clothing
was much 'from. He leaves a wife and two
daughters, thirteen and fifteen years of age,
respectively, in Bokenen, in the kingdom of
Hanover, Germany. He has several times,
since his imprisonment, written to his wife,
and the Rev. Mr. Wensell has a letter which
be intends to send, confided to him by Frecke
for that purpose shortly before his death.
At precisely one o'clock P. M. the sheriff
approached his cell, and called upon him to
prepare; at the same time stating that he
much regretted to be compelled to perform
this unpleasant duty." Frecke replied: "I
don't blame you. It is all right, You aro
only doing your duty.* His arms were then
pinioned with a white linen bandage. He
had on a dark slouch bat, and was about fol
lowing the sheriff out, but was told to wait
until Marschall was ready. The sheriff, up
on reaching Marschall's cell, said to him,
"This is very unpleasant, but we have to do
it.. You must take this off"—meaning a
neck-handkerchief. .Marschall did so..
The prisoner has been in close communi
cation with his spiritual advisor, Father
Amardas i for some days past, and vas pray
ing with him all morning He had on black
clothes, which were seedy and much worn.
He weighed two hundred pounds, had a good
countenance, and up to the last moment said
be felt no depression of • spirits whatever.—
At ten precisely the two condemned men as
cended the scaffold, which consisted merely
of a pair of uprights, a cross-beam and a trap
door. . The clergy, sheriff, deputy and prison
warden accompanied them. Marschall knelt
in prayer upon the front part of of the plat
form, with Father Amardas, for some min
utes. Frecke, however, sat upon a chair,
and said to the sheriff, in German, "I have
to go this road; but I am innocent, and I
hope God may be merciful. Then .turning
to Marschall, he said, "Confess that I am
innocent." Marschall replied, "I have noth
ing to confess." The chairs were then re
moved, and both prepared to . die. The drop
fell at fifteen minutes past one, causing the
men to fall eighteen inches. Frecke died
hard, but ceased to live in thirteen minutes;
Marschall in eleven. Marschall's neck was
broken by the fall. Frecke's, however, was
not. Ho died of congestion of the brain,
caused by strangulation.
The bodies were allowed to hang thirty
minutes and then cut down. Frecke has
been buried by the authorities and Marsehall
by the Catholic Church.
Marsohall's wife visited him this morning.
She is Irish, be German. She is about thir
ty-one years of ago, and brought with het
her two children, both girls, six and .eight
years of age respectively. he also visited
her husband yesterday, and upon leaving
him showed the gallovis to the children, and
said "that is going to kill your . father to-mor
row."

Attempted Assassination- of Berea-
tor Wade'•
WASIIIIidTOII, Jab. 12.—0 n Wadn'esday
evening, between eight and nine o'clock ; a
mm of uthiatuilly large proportions called at
the residence of the Hon. Benjamin F. Wade,
United States Senator from Ohio, on 41
street, and asked to see •the Senator. He
was shown up stairs' by a servant to' Mr..
Wade's room. After being seated he stated
thate was trying - toobtain-emplayme
the United States navy, and asked Mr. Wade
to sign a papsof recbmmendatioa from him
in order to further his object.
Senator Wade refused to do so, saying he
did not know him, add advised him to pro
cure the signature of some person to whom
he was known. After listening to this re
ply, the stranger, whose physiognomy Mr
Wade describes as singularly Malicious and
brutal, looked' at the Senator with a signifi
cant scowl, whiott the latter plainly interpre
ted to mean misehief. At this juncture of
the intetview Mr. Wade arose, and stepping
into another room, armed himself with a load
ed revolver, and quietly returned again into
the room where the visitor was sitting.
After looking at each other for some, time
in silence, the man began his conversation
by saying, "Ain't you going to sign my pa
per ?" To which the Senator returned an
emphatic negative, adding that he had no
knowledge of him. Matters now began to
reach a crisis. The stranger arose to his
feet and drew out a large bowie knife, re
marking, "I suppose you know we are now
alone, sir, 'in this room ?" -•
He wa d s proceeding to unsheatli his weap•
on when Senator Wade sprang to his feet
and drawing his revolver, placed it within a ,
short distance of his head, telling him to
clear out immediately or he would shoot
Taken soniewhat aback, the Mau began to
find his way to the door, followed up by Mr.
Wade, with his pistol still in close' proximi
ty to his bead. 'The Senator saw his visitor
to the door, quietly informing him .that be
had 'a great mind to shoot him anyhow. Up
on this the stranger departed. During the
visit he failed to produce any papers for
signature, and evidently made this a mere
pretext for the interview. At the time of
the visit, there were rio persona in the house
besides Senator Wade, excepting Mr. Mat•,
thews and his wife and servant.
