FROM WASHINGTON.
: 'f be Federal Aid to tbe Stales.
I Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.
Washington, Julv-29.
t-4fp lo ibis time strT Governors of
States have called on the Presi
dent for Federal assistance to put
- down domestic insurrection. Three
oiber Governors, who have not called
on the' President as yet, have issued
proclamations commanding the riot
ers to disperse, and ordered out the
militia of their own Stated to enforce
the order. In another State, where
there has been a great deal of trouble,
Iudiana, the Governor and the local
authorities have taken no steps to
protect the peace, and the criminal
indifference which they have exhibit
ed is subjecting them to the severest
censure. So that the insurrection
begun at the comparatively insignifi
cant town of Martinsburg, has spread
until it embraces the territory of ten
States. Included in these States are
the four most populous States of the
Union: New York, Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Illinois.

President McMahon arrived at
Bourges yesterdaji where the Mayor
presented an address. The President,
iu replying, said his sole aim had.
been the maintenance order of peace
abroad and constitutional at home.
His intentions and acts had been mis
represented. There had been no viola
tion of the constitution, or inter
ference with the liberty of conscience
ox jeopardizing of foreign relations.
The public good sense at home and
abroad had estimated these calumnies
at their- true , value. He added:
"They will not discourage nor pre
vent me from fulfilling my task, with
the help of the men who have hither
to been supporters of my policy. -1
am confident that the nation will re
spond to my appeal, and will choose
representatives who will terminate
the conflict, which if prolonged could
only be bnrtful to the country's in
terests, and ( check the pacific de
velopment of its greatness." . Allude
ing to foreign affairs, the President
said: "France had done all in her
power to localize the war in the
East." "Peace," he said, "is the first
policy, the French policy."

A DIatreaalne Accident.
A very, distressing accident occurred in
the river opposite this city, on Sunday,
about 13 o'clock. Capt. Ebon Horton, of
theschr. jSiam, who resides on Fifth, be
tween Church and Castle streets, was re
turning from a trip to Fort Fisher, having
his family on board, and was passing. a
point between the Messrs. Kidders', Mill
and. the Cotton Factory, when Robert Hor
teri, a son of the captain, aged about 13
-years, went -out on -the" bowsprit of jf the
schooner, there being but little wind at the
time, and the, act in consequence attracting
but little attention. . Still he was warned to
be careful, by one of the . hands on the
boat, but tbe words of caution had scarcely
been spoken when Capt : Horton was
shocked by the startling cry that
his son - was overboard. The yesse
was immediately stopped,- a boat lowered
and a search ; made for the unfortunate
youth, but nothing was seen of him from
the time he fell,' the impression being that
he was stunned by coming in contact; while
falling; 1 with the anchor which was sus
pended over ; the bows, or that the vessel
passed directly oyer him. The remainder
of the afternoon was spent in searching for
the body, but it was not recovered
None but those who have suffered a sim
ilar bereavement can fully appreciate the
feelings of the parents at the result of this
heart-rending accident The mother; we
understand, was, at last accounts, almost
frantic with grief, and the father, though
more capable of restraining his emotions,'
no doubt feels as deeply the sad calamity
which has so suddenly befallen them
Since writing the above we have seen
Capt Horton, who says that his wife was
not with him, but that his eldest daughter
and another young lady were on the vessel
He was at the wheel at the time the acci
dent Occurred, and says that his son, who
was sitting on a rope attached to the bow
sprit, and close against the bow of the ves
sel, must have been stunned by striking.
against the bows as he fell. He could swim,
and was also remarkably familiar, for one1
so young, with the. management" of .-the
vessel. Capt H. was so shocked at the mis
fortune that he was scarcely able to, get the
schooner to the wharf, and the effect that
. . .. . n j 1
ne anew tne intelligence wouiu nave upuir
his wife rendered the duty of informing her
of the fact almost as disagreeable to him as
the loss of his child.
The body had not been recovered at last
accounts.
Still Another UTad Dos Killed
On Sunday afternoon, while the congre
gation were assembling for service in the
Front Street Methodist Church, a dog,
which manifested every indicationof suf
fering fom that terrible malady, hydro
phobia, entered the building, and, of course,
created very general consternation. Final
ly, after considerable difficulty, the animal
was ejected, upon which he started for the
opposite side of the street, entering the
piazza of a gentleman, who quickly put an
end to his troubles by a well-directed shot
from his revolver. Those who saw the dog
say there is no doubt as to the fact of his
being mad, as he was frothing at the mouth
and his eyes were as green as a cucumber.
Since the above was written we learn that
the , dog, which was running about the
church, jumping up at the windows and
cutting up other queer capers, was taken
up by tbe sexton and removed from the
building, be not having the slightest idea
that the animal was mad; nejther were the
congregation aware of the fact at first The
incident happened just after the Sunday
Bchool had been dismissed, and not many
of the worshippers had arrived.
An Excursion Barge.
The lighter Modoc, belonging to Messrs.
Harriss & Howell, is being put in thorough
repair and fitted up as an excursion barge.
fWith this view a hurricane deck is to be
built to the boat, with a high railing sur
rounding it, above which an awning will be
placed. There will be a space of seven and
!a half feet between the two decks and be
tween the hurricane deck and the awning,
here will be ample space-fallowed on the
lower deck for the convenience of dancing,
and it is expected, that a large number of
excursionists can be accommodated. The
barge will be furnished, with a double-acting
force pump, with hose, for use in case
of firej and with all other modern convex
niences.' These improvements to the end
alluded to will not, however, interfere with
her lightering capacities, as during the busy
season the bulkheads can be .removed and
she will be in as good a trim for that; pur
pose as ever. The steam. tug Alpha will do
the towing. . :
'I he Western Excursionists.', :
The Burke Blade says: "A large excur
sion from Wilmington, under the control of
Messrs., Trott, Bruner & Co., of Monroe,
passed up the road on Tuesday last . They
left Wilmington ! on Tuesday with about
sixty on board, and added to their number
along the route until they numbered about
four hundred. We noticed the following

OPERA HOUSE.
' Burr's Oeeanleon.
The first exhibition of Borr's Oceanicon,
or War on the Wave, at the Opera House
last evening; was witnessed by a large, and
appreciative audience. From the appear I
ance of Mr." W. L. Harlow, : the lecturer,.
before the curtain, with his well composed
. and well delivered introduction, to the end,-
the interest of the audience' was unabated,
the applause $. reqnentsV scgaifitef
scene rolled before the audience, and were
described by the lecturermany and favor
able were the comments of the lookers on.
The vividness with which some of the
scenes were depicted on the canvas carried
one Very forcibly back to tbe time when
they were being enacted.
Mr. Burr's success is unquestionable.
None were disappointed last night, but by
far the greater part were taken entirely by
surprise, having expected something toler
ably good, but not having an idea of the
true character of the panorama.
Those who were not present last night
certainly missed seeing what ' would have
undoubtedly pleased, we may . say, de
lighted them; We write hastily, but hope
to lay before our readers a more complete
and minute description to-morrow.
Singular Phenomenon.
A rather singular phenomenon occurred
at Oakdale Cemetery on Sunday afternoon,
about 1 o'clock. We all know how almost
perfectly calm it was during tbe entire day,
with scarcely a leaf to be seen stirring jon
the trees or a breath of air to be felt. The
colored sexton at Oakdale says it was the
same case out there until about the time
specified, when suddenly a roaring sound
was heard and a young hurricane came
rushing down tbe ravine and creek border-'
ing on the west side of the cemetery, tak
ing its course due southward, passing
through the lodge near the gate, scattering
papers, &c., in every direction, and threat
ening destruction to everything in its way.;
The tornado or cyclone was -compressed
into -a very narrow compass, probably
anout twenty yards, and beyond the range
of its course from north to south everything'
remained as before, perfectly calm and

SCHENCK'S SEA WEED TONIC In the at-
mosphere experienced here during the summer
months, .the lethargy produced by the heat takes
away tfte desire for wholesome food, and frequent
perspirations reduce bodily energy, : particularly
those suffering from the effects of debilitating dis
eases, i In order to keep a natural healthful activity
of the system we must resort to artificial means.
For this purpose Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic is very
effectual. A few doses will create an appetite and
give fresh vigor to the enervated body. For dys
pepsia it is, invaluable. Many eaiinent physicians
have doubted whether dyspepsia can be permanent-.
ly cured by the drugs which are generally employed
for that purpose. The Sea Weed Tonic in its na
ture is totally different from such drugs. It contains
no corrosive minerals or acids;, in fact it assists the
regular operations of nature, and supplies her defi
ciencies. The tonic in its nature so much resembles
the gastric juice thqt It is almost identical with that
fluid, The gastric juice Is the natural solvent
which, in a healthy condition of the body causes
the food to be digested, and when this iuice la ant
excreted in sufficient quantities, indigestion, with
all its distressing symptoms fojlow. The Sea Weed
Tonic performs the duty of the gastric juice when
the latter
iter isdencient. i Scheuak's Sea Weed Tonic.
