AWFUL SCENES AND SORROWS, The earthquakes continued to tol- low one another in quick succession up to 7 a. m., when a leaden colored cloud was observed alvancing from the south, spreading out until it covered the sky, and winle still moving it burst with a sound of thua- der and shortly afterward showers ot | fine dust began falling. | ¢ Accounts from other j {the mob leston. |lynchers rose and pulled the bell | Instantly the train slackened rope ts pace and soon it came to 2 dead stand in the midst of a forest.

Sheriff of His County. Edmund Kirk sends the Philadel pbia Press a long account ot the Jynching of a negro in West Virgin- aa, and in the course of it gives a pacture of a brave sheriff in the dis- charge ot his duty. His name was Roessler. He had served in the un- toa army throughout the war, and, entering it as a private, had risen to the ranks of major. - Soon aiter the war had closed, though a republican, he was elected sherift in a district strongly democratic, and this office he had now held for many years, to the great terror of evil doers.
