The South Tier Democrat charges . . .
Why the editors of those papers should be so willing to give circulation to such calumnious accusations the public must judge for themselves. All we have to say in response is that we have found the Express Agents gentlemanly in their conduct and honorable in their dealings with us, and do not believe them the kind of men that these papers make them out. We have never employed them to carry the Gate City, and that fact alone knocks the bottom out of the preposterous charge. – { Gate City.
Why the Gate should make an association of the character of the above, we are at a loss to determine. We copied the articles of the South Tier Democrat, but exculpated Express Messengers from blame, and as the only way we could solve the matter, presumed there was a mistake. We have never blamed either the American or United States Companies, or any of their messengers, and so stated, in the remarks appended to the Democrat’s article. The Gate is very thin skinned or it would not harp upon this matter.

Serious and Perhaps Fatal Accident
Last Saturday evening, a girl named Mary Kelly; about 15 years of age, living in the family of Mr. George L. Carmen, met with an accident which is more than likely to cost her her life. She was making a fire in the kitchen stove, and finding it slow to burn, she got the fluid can and poured a part of the contents on the fire. The can contained a mixture of kerosene and burning fluid, the latter put in by mistake. As soon as the fluid touched the fire the flames shot up and set fire to the liquid in the can tearing it to pieces. The girl’s clothes caught fire and were burnt off her while her body and limbs were badly burned. Dr. Adler was at once called in and dressed the wounds, but little hope, however, was entertained of her recovery yesterday afternoon. – Davenport Gazette

Parson Brownlow At Camp Morton
The Indianapolis Journal says that the rebels at Camp Morton did not give Parson Brownlow a very cordial reception. He was met with jeers and crist of “Put him out,” “Don’t want him here,” “The old traitor,” etc., which he, having faced worse treatment under far more dangerous circumstances gave little heed to. The insultes came cheifly from the Kentucky Prisoners, who have been from the start the most obstreperous and unrepentant of the rebels there.
