Federal Republican Nominations
FOR GOVERNOR
NON. SAMUEL LATHROP,
OF West-Spring6eld.
FOR LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR,
HON. RICHARD SULLIVAN
Of Brookline.
Hox. SAMUEL LATHRoP.

Hox. SAMUEL LATHRoP.
hr. LATHRoP, is the son Of the Rev. DR.
JOSEPH LATHRoP. of West Springfield, mar
Justly distinguished among the divines of New.
England, for his Piety, wisdom and learning
from him ne received the richest legacy a
father can bequeath child, Christian edu.
cation, accompanied with the example in his
own character, ola virtuous life.
The gentleman now nominated for the Of
flee OF GoVernour, was educated at Yale Col.
lege, Connecticut, and received the honour:
of that institution in 1899. After leaving
college, he was bred lawyer, and has sus.
tanned the character of fair practitioner and
able counsellor. In 1909, and for several
years succeeding, he represented the coun-
ty Of Hampshire in the Senate of Massa-
chusetts during which period we find his
name on important committees, and we know
from those who were associates with him AT
the Senate Board, that they respected his
talents and confded implicitly in his sound
judgment. In 1920, We find him in the Con-
gress OF the United States. Here altho' from
his political sentiments, he hes not been al
lowed to take the first rank in the House. he
has been very useful and efficient member oil
that body; the majority have always been
willing to avail themselves Of his experience
and judgment, upon many important commit
tees. The character of SAMUEL LATHRop is
that of an independent, judicious, wise man.
descendant Of one of the early settlers OF
New-England, he has all the worth of the an
Gent New-England character, without its
faults. He is about fifty years of age-at
that time oflife when all the faculties are ma
tured, but not blunted. Ifelected to the Of
fee for which his friends have nominated him.
his administration will reflect honour upon
Massachusetts.
Ofthe gentleman named for the second of.
flee in the gift of the people, the Hon. RICH
ARD SULLIVAN, it is sufficient to say, he is
well known as the friend and counsellor OF
BROOKS, and as the independent, practical ag-
riculturist. He is son Of the late Gov. Sui
L1vAN, man who, by the upaided energy of
native talent, passed through almost every
office in the gift ofthe people of Massachusetts
until he arrived at the highest, and then ex-
hibited the noble example of man, who
would be GOgernOur Of the State, but not of a
party. Boston Gasete.

GREAT RISE OF WATER.-A rand. and
tor the season, an unusual swell of the Con-
necticut river, and its tributary streams, took
place on Wednesday evening and Thursday
morning, the 18th and 10Th inst. Judge
Burt, gentleman who has resided in this
village more than sixty years, has told us,
that he never witnessed similar occurrence
RATED logs, spars, boxes of boards, shingles.
trees, pieces Of framed work, &c. SC. were
almost continually passing. The water was
from twenty-five to thirty feet above low wa
ter mark.
The roads, particularly those over hills, or
through light, sandy soil, are very much in
jured in some places, impossible. Within
half a mile of our Office, in the road leading to
Westminster, is a chasm of about forty feet
breadth, and twenty to thirty in depth, &C.
casoned by the waters working a passage
through it below the surface; thus undermin-
ing it, and carrying away several hundred

SPARTA, (TENN,\ Jan Cd

OPAhTA, ENN. Jan. "a.
Il River on fire !-On Saturday even.
ing last, we witnessed a very novel
and interesting spectacle, at the Salt
Wells, belonging to Mr.. Denton, on the
Calf Killer River about three miles a.
bove this village. Rumor, with her
hundred tongues had been so very &C
tive on the occasion as to prepare us
for the exhibition of something very
curious, from hearing it proclaimed on
all sides " The River IS on fire." De-
termined 10 see for ourselves we mount
ed our nag at 8 P. M. and rode to this
scene of wonder.
AS we approached within 9 miles of
the wells our attention was suddenly
arrested by seeing corrus3asions of light
quivering on the edges of the horizon,
which was illumined with an unsteady
Pickering glare. Arrived at the spot,
scene presented itself which almost
beggars description A column of fire
nearly 40 feet in height, assembled from
near the middle Of the river, here about
so yards wide, illuminating surrounding
objects within the distance of two hun
dred yards.
We are informed by Mr.. Denton,
that, in boring for Salt Water the pre-
ceding day, they had suddenly struck
upon a vein of sulphurous gas. which,
in ascending, found another vent than
the tube, through a rock in the bed OF
the river, forcing passage through the
surrounding waters, which boiled with
considerable violence round the place
OF its escape. A torch was then eau
tiously applied, which quickly commune
Gated to the Gas, and blaze inconceiv.
ably grand burst upwards 10 the height
mentioned, apparently from the very
bed of the river. The cloud above the
blaze, exhibited a mixture of colors
beautiful beyond description, and rud
dy dismal light gave to various objects
the hues Of green and red, yellow ant
