There was a terrible accident on the East Tennessee. Virginia and Georgia Railroad, near Child ersburg, last Wednesday. Two freight trains going at full speed oollided, and thirteen cars and two engines were piled up in a mass Bales of cotton, coal and merchandise are scattered in the woods.

The elections last week have | been peculiarly gratifying to (he Democratic par'y. The victory in New York and Virginia- while not unexpected, show that in the form er state, notwithstanding the blun dersofthe Administration, the lie mocracv has beep able to held a clear majority, without the aid of the mugwumps, who claim that they are entitled to the credit of Cleveland’s election. New York politics are always a doubtful quan tity. The commercial methods adoptod in the metropolis lender every election doubtful, and the split between the Tammany Hall and county Democracy, weakens our strength and leaves an oppor tuuity for the Republicans to get in their man, Hill, the Democrat ic candidate, was elected by a ma jority of from ten to twelve thou sand, and the Tammany wing car ried the city of New York. It is not unusual for Southern Demo crats to abuse and attempt to belittle this wing of the party in that State, but its history has shown that it is the most reliable wing of the par.y in tliecity. No t withstanding their rebuffs at the hands of of the National partv, in almost every el action, they have stood fairly and squarely by their colors. Mr Cleveland has been disposed to give them the cold shoulder, and yet the returns show, but for their loyalty to the party, the Republicans woukThave swept the Stati and a verdict of condemnation passed upon Cleve land’s administration by his own Mtate. In Virginia the triumph has been a glorious ojne. Mahone and hie Scallawuyb have been routed, horse, foot, and dragons. The Old Dominion is redeemed. For the first time «ince the war the State Government passes Into the hands of her own a ons. The day of the scallawag and renegade are numbered in the South State ats ter State has fallen into line, and Virginia is the last to remain in the control of tuen who have de serted the old mother for the per quisite of office. Georgia led off. and the other slates followed iu quick succession, until the Old Do minion was the lust Southern State that present el the humiliat ing spectacle of two Republican Senators in the Congress of tne Umted States. That a State, where sleep the remains of Washington, Jefferson, and Madison, of Lee, Stonewall Jackson and Stewart, should speak throught a trait or and apostale, in the councils of the nation, was not only humiliat ing to Virginia, but to the entire South. And it is a source of con gratulation both at home and abroad, that the name of Lee was invoked to awake the latent fires of patriotism in this grand old State, and hurl from places of lion or and trust, Mahone, V T ise and Ais gang, who, backed up by the negro and tUe Republican party, with its barrels of money and offi* ces, have been able so long to crush out the true spirit of tlieir ancestors. Farewell Billy Mahone, who blasted an honored name as a soldier by being a traitor in peace. Good bye, W r ise—an hon ored name among the good people of that State—a degenerate son of a noble sire, They both go down into oblivion, like a pebble into a pit, twin brothers iu infamy. Fitzhugh Lee’s majority will reach about twenty thousand, and he will be backed up by two thirds of the General Assembly Fortunately, this Legislature will elect a successor to Mahone in the Senate, and after rext March, that body will not witness the hu initiating spectacle of the vote of a State being dickered for pal try State offices to rivet the power of this little scab, No wonder the people «cf that Slate are wild with rejoicing. The scallawag and apost.ite office hold aers can pack tbier grip sacks and and git, as the cry goes down the line, “To your tents, oh. Israel.” 'There is not a true Southern uian, from the Potomac to the /iio Grande, but what feels his very soul swell, as he reads the dis ■ patches, announcing that Virginia is redeemed, while the old sol diers, who served with Fitzhugb, will rejoice tuat their old c.mrade haß been the chosen instrument in the hands of a just God in lifting the cloud that has hung so long over the mother of States and Presidents. This victory is a permanent odo. No Southern Slate that has thrown ofi completely the power of a carpetbag government, ever bows to its sceptre again. The self respect of the people ve-as seits it self, and with the “Colie sive power of public plunder gone, the rotten concern will fall to pieces of its own weight, and the wrangle that will follow be tween Mai one and ‘his followers, will furnish sport for the nation “On with the Dance, let joy be unconfined.” DEATH OF GEN. McCLELLAN Gen. Geo. B. McClelland died -uddenly at bis residence on Or ange Mountain, N. J., on the 2Ptii u!t, from heart disease He had been unwell for some time, but his friends did not con eider him in emmediate danger. fie a McClellan was born in 1826, and on graduating entered the army. He distinguished him self in the Mexican war, and was regarded, with Genl Lee, as the most promising young officers the old army. His carreer in the Union army was highly honorable although not successful, and as a Democrat ic Genl, he was not in favor at Washington. He retired from thb army after his defeat for the Presidency in 1864. Ilis wife declined to have him burned with military honors. Geo. W. Cheves, who killed Col Pickett in Dawson, Carroll couu ty, about a year ago, died in Ful ton county jail las* Thursday. The killing of Pickett created intense excitement in Dawson county, aDd it was dtemed best that he be re moved to Fulton county jail, -for fear of mob violence. Long con finement and the charge of mur der, so wrought upou the mind of poor Cheves, that he had become permanently insane before his death, We knew him as a hightoned and honorable man, peculiarly sen sative and wreckless when under the influence of whiskey. On the press excursion t <r Baltimore in July 2884, Cheves, then the edit or of the Dawson Journal, was one of the party. On the way, Cheves became in toxicated in Tennessee, and paraded up and down in the c ars with an [umbrella spread over nim. He spoke to no one, but solemnly marched up and down the aisles, looking neither to .'he right or lei t. The members of the party avoided him, as bis ap pearance indicated that he was wild and wreckless. Wextday he was sober, and when informed of liis strange 'action, of which he seemed ignorant, was so dejected that we feared he would commit suicide. His sensitive nature was so disgusted at the exhibition he had made of himself, that he went to several members of the party and asked what he must do to re instate himself in their esteem, and during the remainder of the trip* was melancholly and mingled only with those who sought his compa ny- r When free from the influence of liquor he was a gentleman, bright, cheerful aud interesting, bi.t intox icants had a terrible effect upon lim, and transformed a quiet; pleasant, gentleman into a maniac. Thus ended the life of one of the brightest meL on the Georgia press, and his associates deeply sympathise with hie wife and son in their distress. Empty pocket books are lying around loose in iuacon. The pickpockets had no use for them after getting the money, Five boys run away from home in Atlanta to follow Cole's circus and now their parents are discon solate, The president had determined to appoint Gen. McClelland a member of the civil seivice com mission, But his death prevented the appointment. THANKSGIVING DAY. The president has set apart Thntsday the 2Gth day of Novem» her as a day of public thanksgiv ing and prayer. The following is the text of the Proclamation . By the president of the Udited States of America —A proclama tion. The American people have always abundant reason to be thankful to Almighty uoci, whose watchful care and guiding hand have been manifested in every stage of ilieir nation, and guards ing and protecting diem in time of peril and safety, leading them in the hour of darkness and of dan gei. It is fitting and proper ilia/ the nation thus fovored should, on one day in every year, and for that purpose specially appointed, publicly acknowledge the goods ness of cod and rviurn thanks to llim for all His gracious gifts. 7’berefore, I, mover Cleveland, president of t e United States of America, do hereby designate and set apart Thursday, the twenty sixth day of November maun t, as a dav of public thanksgiving and prayer, and do invoke the aoser vance of the same by all the peo pie of the land. On that day let all the people assemble a' their usual places of worship, and, with prayer and soriys of praise, de von'ly testify their gratitude to she Giver of every good and per feet gift for all that he has done for ! us in the year that has just passed ■ for onr presevation as a united na i tiou, ind for our deliverance from j the shock ud danger of political couuulsions; for the olessing of peace and for our safety %nd quiet while wars and rumors of wars have agitated and fflicted otbea na tions of the earth; for our security against the scourge of pes/ilence, which in other lands has claimed itb de itb by thousands, and filled tLe streets with mourners, for the pltulions crops which reward the the labor of the husbandman and increase our nation’s wealth; and for contentment throughout oui i borders which follow iu the train of prosperity aud abundance; and let there also be, on the day thus set apart, a reunion of families sanctified andcba6tered by tender memories and associations, and let the social intercourse of friends with pleasant reminiscenses and ties oj affection and strengthen the bords of kindly feeling, and let us. by no means forget, waile we give tbanko, enjoy the comforts which have crowned ovr lives that truly grateful hearts are inclined to deeds of charity; and that the kind and thoughtful remembrance of the pooi will double the pleas ures of our condition, and render our praise and thanksgiving more acceptable in the si"ht of the Lord. Done at the citp of Washington this second day of November, one thousand-eight hundred and eigh tystive, and of the independence of the United States the one hun dred aud tenth. Grovee Cleveland. The following is an extract from Sam Jones’ sermons in Birming ham ,• I never said a man who would swear would steal, but I did say, and do say now, that a man who swells or breaks any one of the commandments would steal if it were not for the judges, the sher iff-, the jails and the coal mines. If there be a man iD this vast' mill titude who was acusser when he started to the war, and went through this war without stealing something, I want him to stand up. A grey haired veteran at once arose, about midway the tent, and in a firm tone said ; “I went through the wae with out stealing, and started in as a profane sweater.” Jones scratched his head, aud before he could make a reply, the bveteran aid \ “I want to state ho tvever, that 1 never swore but one oath in my life.” I ones at ouce replied; “1 thought you couldn’t have been muen of a ‘cusser’ or else ttie people kept their things migh ty well out of your reach.” He spoke of the evil of gam bling and said; “You fellows have got so you bet on anything. Why, some of you are betting rigl t now that Sam Small can beat Sarn /ones a preaching, and 1 honost'y believv you are right about that, but you needn’t gamble on it ” Speaking of the Louisiana lotj tery, he said; “General Lee rests In his peace fui grave, a man revered by eeery patriotic Christian in this country. Beauregard and Early will soon belaid to test in a grave covered all over with ignomily,” He took the mayor and council severely to task for not driving the soiled doves from the city lim its. His remarks in this connec tion, directed especial'y to the young men had a telling effect. He condemed baseball in no meas ured terms, and said it was the most corrupting thing in the south, If my old flop earod hound should go out here to your park, and look on a game of baseball for ton minutes, I’d shoot him on the spot. At the conclusion of the sermon over three hundred men wen t for ward giving their hands to Joees, promising to live better lives and praying forgiveness. An other extract .• He said every man and woman had to get every vistige of the bog element out of their chaaac ters before they could become Christians; that he was hereto as sist in destroying that hog ele meut; and at this point he exlaim ed ; “Oh, Lord come down and help us kill bogs! I want this to be a regular hog killing meeting.” While discoursing upon the in» junction, ‘Love thine enemies,’ he said; “I verily believe I love every human boifig on the top siae of this earth, and if you will bring a man whom I don’t love and stand him up here on this platform I’ll hug him until he squeals, and if you can find a weman in all this world whom I don’t love and bring her up here, why- I’ll—l’ll—send for my wife and make her hug her until she squeals!
