on fire by the retreating rebels, but our
troops soon put it Out ; that the citizens
received our troops with enthusiastie
expreisions 'of joy. 'The first troops
which entered th'e city were 'all colored

Us General Kelley arrived at Cum_

with him from Washington. The Gen
eral reports a great panic in Richmond
last Sunday. Tlie city was'. filled with
rumors as to the approach of Sheridan,
and the greatest alarm and excitement
prevailed among the people. Flour is
worth twelve hundred dollars a barrel
in Richmond. The General sent out, to
my some apples while in prison and got
.en for twenty dollars.
Gens. Crook and Kelley and Adjn-
taut Melvin had a rough ride of it from
Cumberland to Harrisonburg. From
that point they were takeri , t,o Staunton
in a hack. At Harrisonburg a 'TJniori
man an, Irishmarir—whom they did not
know, came up to General Kelley and
accosted him in a familiar way, offering
him a bunch of se . guis. The General
'declined, saying ,he ~did, not smoke.
Gen.C a rook also declined, but Adjutant
Melvin being firookep took the segars.
Enclosed:with the bunch was found a

Cir Quite.a rivalry has, already taken
,place, between certain enterprising
Northerners in the newspaper business,
and.before msny days you need not be
surprised if ,three or four first-classalail-
Ms, advocating the Union and support

started in Richmond. The material and
the.brains•have long ,been waiting for
the ,chance.. Some of the: finest army
,printiog has been done,in printing: offi
ces carried 'along. with imr moving - col
umns, and it is not doubted thA. new
types and presses have been sent -from
the North; n anticipation of. tie. capture
which has .now taken place.
The'tcital:lbas on our side at the
Petersbiirg fight, is 1 980 killed, wound
ed ante missing, while that of the rebels
'reaches nearly 6000. The battle, which
was begun oy Lee, was Made : more gen

had'beeri deeisively repulsed it was fol
lowed by an amault: on our side . by the
Sixth Cdrp's, theirophies of which were
600 prisoners and part of the enemy's
lines. but a small portion of either ar

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.—The Centreville
Observer of the 16th instant gives the
following particulars of a tragedy which
recently occurred in Queen Anne's
county, Md. :
It is our painful duty this morning to
chronicle two of the most horrible mur
ders ever before known in this section.
The perpetrators of this hoirible deed
are Wm. fi. Pace, ( a grandson of Hon.
Wni. Paca, a signer of the Declatation
of Independence, and son of Hon. Wm.
Pace, formerly Governor of this State, )
and his two sons, Tilgham C. and James
Pace. The victims were Alfred Jones
and John P. Pace, the former an uncle
of the latter, and the latter a nephew of
Wm. B. Pace. and son of the late Ed
ward Pace, of Wye Neck, Queen Anne's
county. It seems that a portion of the
estate of the late Edward T. Pace, had
been confiscated by the United States
Government, and sold at public auction,
Wm. B. Pace becoming the purchaser.
The portion of the estate thus confisca
ted, we understand, was an undivided
fifth, aud was so 'situated that it could
not be divided or taken from the re
maining four-fifths of the estate, and the
income from the whole - Could only be di-
Vided between the respective owners.
We are a little particular on this point,
as this is the CallEe of the horrible trag
edy which we' are now attempting to re-
Cord.
On Tuesday last, Wm. B. Pace, in
returning froM Baltimore, passed the
said estate, and' observing Jones and
Pace engaged in erecting a fence around
a piece 'Of ground designed for`a garden,
ordered them to cease their• labors, sta
ting that he was the owner of the pro=
perty and would not allow them to
erect the fence without 'first obtaining
his consent. Meeting with no return
berode on to his home, and on Wed
nesday afternoon; accompanied by his
three'sohe, John, Tilgham C. and James
Paca, armed with double-barreiled shot
guns, again rode over to the estate and,
finding Jones . and Pace still engaged in
the erection of the fence, ordered them,
we are told, in a very rough manner to
cease their labors, adding that if they
persisted he' would arrest them. Ttie
threat being met by the manly defiance
of John P. Pada, William B.Paca‘and
his three sons; armed as aforesaid,
sprang fromithe carriage, when tilgharn'
C. Pace levelled his gun at and shot
J'oh'n P." Pace, the whole load taking
affect in his throat, killing him instant
ly.—Jones, who was standing a feW feet
from John P. Pace, both of Nihom were
at the time engaged in digging post
hOles, started towards him, when Wil
liam B Pace, we are told, levelled his
gun and fired both barrels at him, the
loads taking effect in his neck and head,
killing him instantly.
Mrs.. Pace, sister to,Jones, and moth
er of John P. Pace,'hearing the report
of guns, came:to the'scene, and in the
most agonizing tones,,and with all the
distress and sympathy which, a mother
alone can feel, bent over and called to
her son, "Speak to me my don.; speak
to your dear mother." To which Wm.
B. Paca replied, , "He is past . speaking
now; and the blood'is all on your skirts;
you advised the erection of the fence ;
I killed them in self-defense,'', and put
ting his two eons, Tilghman C. and
James ( both said to be non compos men
tis)' in the carriage, he ordered them to
be driven to Centreville, and lodged in
jail, where they are at present-confined.
PASS THEN & H: Graugh.:
an, of New York . .city, haveurecently
sent to the press all over this State,
and w.e-presume to the press of other
States, an advertisement of jewelry, &c.
which.they propose to diepose of by sale
of certificates. Having been ourselves .
swindled by this concern, by a refusal
upon their part to pay fo'r inserticg
their, advertisements as per contract, we
caution the press against placing any
reliances in their promises ; and believ
ing.that a concein that will swindle the
press would be equally ready to swindle
all others who might have dealings with
them, we further. caution‘; our 'readers
and-the public generally to have nothing
to do with , the- bogus e : con,
cerm—Trenton State Gazette.
This swindling concern took 'us,
amongst °there', in, two different times,
under different names. We would warn
onr.readern-to have nothing, to do with
them. • '
HAVRE" DE GRACE BRIDGE.—From
present expectations i the bridge in course
of construction across the Susquehanna
at Havre de Grace, Maryland, , will be
finished during this yea'r, 'and it will be
known as the, great bridge of this conti
nent, while it will stand as a,monuinent
of the geniva and enterprise of the nine
teenth century. The . Victoria sßridge
across the St. LaWience, at: Montreal,
has hitherto' been considered the Most
stupendubue structure ' America,' but
its piers are built `in '`a,depth' of ;Water
not exceeding twelve feet, while those
otthe Susquehanna bridge rise through
ee'venty.!die feet of water. The celebra
ted bridge. of Menai Straits has its piers
erected on small islands, so that woader
ful. as'it re, it will in no manner compare
with the splendid bridge in. Maryland
when completed. . •

SUCCESS OF THE 7.30 LQAS.-OUr read
ers will notice that subscriptions to the
popular 7-30 Loan are still continued in
the most liberal manner. To the Old
World the success of these Peoples'
Loans is one of the wonders of a 'Repub
lic. The Government dhes not seek to
borrow in foreign markets ; it offers no
premiums to bankers, but appeals di
rectly to the people, and with what suc
cess is sufficiently shown by the fact
that during forty-three days they sub
scribed and paid the cash down for one
hundred and sixty-one million dollars of
the 7-30 Loan. 'Thar's, can be no strong
er evidence of public confidence in Gov
ernment securities. While nearl all
other stocks have gone down from twen
ty to fifty, and even's - greater - ger 'vettt.
within a few weeks, all forms of U. S.
bonds and stocks have remained firm
except the slight fiuctations that are
incident to all rapid changes in the
money market. Our readers will re
member that the subscribers to-the 7-30
Loan receive semi annual interest at
the• rate of seven and three-tenths per
cent. per annum in currency, and at the
end of three years from June.lsth, 1865,
they will have the option of rdeeiving
payment., in fall, or converting their
notes into a. 5-20 six per cent. gold in
terest bond. The late. great decline in
the premium on , gold makes these notes
more desirable than ever as ~an invest
ment, and it should not be forgotten
that their exemption from state or mu
nicipal taxation adds largely to their
value. There is no interr "
uptio"n in the
receipt of subscriptions or the delivery
of the notes. Alt banks; bankers, and
others acting as Dian Agents, will pay
subscribers the interest in advance from
the day of subsc.riptien 'until June 15th.
c4r Why are . suicides . the most suc
cessful in the world ? Because,they al
ways accomplish their "own ends."
'ar Why does a person that is poorly,
lose much of his sense or touch.? Be
cause he don't feel well.
