LoCnFOCOISM.

In the fourth Congressional District OF
Illinois, Col. Wentworth received the NOM
inaiion; his nomination was Objectionable
to the mass of the party, and two other
locofoco candidates came out in opposition
to him. The Signal, paper printed al
Juliet, in the district, violently opposed
Col. W., alleging that he procured his nom
nation by fraud and corruption; for this
he and his friends forcibly entered the
office, in the night, carried off and secretcd
such portions of the materials as they sup
posed would put stop TO the paper until
at least after the election. The editor OF
the paper has made publication, in which
he states that Col w. was present and
seen in close communion with the persons
who took possession of the Office" He
also announces that the publication of the
paper will be shortly resumed. The closing
up or tearing down printing establish
ment, to further their own views, seems
to be a matter of very little consequence,
to the loco leaders, nowadays.

The Boston Atlas says that the Procession on
the 18th comprised about ten thousand persons,
Of whom three thousand were attached TO the mil
itary uniformed corps. Among the venerable
men present was Captain JOSIAH CLEVELAND, a
Bunker Hill veteran, who Of the advanced age
of eighty nine performed a journey of more than
four hundred and fty miles, in two and half
days, 10 be present on the enterprising occasion.
The perfect decorum and good order which
prevailed at Boston last week, and especially on
the great day at the Bunker Hill Celebration,
when tens of thousands OF people werein motion,
has been the subject of remark and commenda'
ton among numbers of observant visiters. The
Boston Courier, in paragraph on the subject,
SAYS
"The simple fact, that our police did not make
single commiua to the Jail, on Saturday last,
speaks volumes for the respect for law and the
love Of good order, which characterize New Eng
land Though our city was filed to its utmost ca
pacity, and though tn. greatest excitement was
felt on all hands, not the slightest outbreak oc'
Cured to mar the harmony of the occasion.
This circumstance, so honorable to New Eng
land was especially noticed by the distinguished
strangers from the South, and spoken Of in
terms OF the most unbounded qualification.

A gentleman who left here some time
since for Santa Fe, writes to a friend as
follows:
"WALNUT CREEK, June %, 1913.
"Our company have gotten thus far in spite Of
our difficulties, which are Of a most inmoveabe
nature, such as heavy rains, high water and
muddy roads. We have had 10 bridge every
stream Of any size this side Of the Council Grove
At Big Cow Creek we were all hands detained
whole day in mud and water making bridge.
which if high weter does not wash it away, will
be good to cross on for years to come; it is made
some ) miles above the old regular crossing; we
from there struck across the county leaving
Plumb Point to the left instead Of the right, by
which think we made some half days travel.
We are now lying here on account Of high wa
ter; the slough of this bottom we think we will
be able TO cross te. day or tomorrow. The road
on the other side is, we understand, desperate;
the Arkansas is unusually high, and when we
can cross it, the Lord only knows, as going by
! the Fort seems out Of the question. We have
seen no Indians. and only saw Buffalo yesterday
Some two hundred OF Uncle Sans boys are
with US, with three pieces of Artillery; they will
go on as far as the crossing, where we expect to
meet the Governor with some 1900 men, which
it was thought would be Sufficient to protect,
with or without our assistance, the Mexican in.
terest in our company: bu, if the rumor now in
our camp be true, that some 500 or 800 Texans
are on the Plains, it will prove insufficient even
with our assistance. Amigo was 10 be at the
crossing by the 25th Of this month, but no ex
press having arrived since his first, as he was
written to, which required return express. the
presumption or opinion seems TO be that he has
retroated, or been defeated; we saw where several
! Mexcans had been killed on the road and it may
! be possible these were his expresses, and he may
/ be waiting answers from US. Capt. Boon SAYS
| he saw large trail on or near the Semhonc
which can be none other but the Texan, if so
we may expect hot work in camp as some are
for and some bitterly against them, and say they
will give battle before the Mexcans can be Ia
ken. Col. Warfed captured and run off some
hundred or two head Of animals with only some
twenty lour-men, and retreated, but was pursed
and overaken by some soldiers, who recapured
their own and took al! his. i 4

This is the reason why the Governors

Contradictory reports are in circulation
as to the whereabouts of this individual.
One is, that he has been arrested by the
Governor of Illinois, on arequisition from
the Governor of Missouri, and is on his
way to Springfield, Illinois. Another is
that he was rescued by his followers and
is now in Nauvoo. By next week we
hope to be able TO give a correct account

The Brokers, with perhaps one cxccp-

with the law of the last Legislature, which

ing any dealings in "depreciated, curren-

HON. HUGH $. LEGARE.

HUN, HUGH =, LEGAR
Most of our readers, we presume, ere
this paper reaches them will have heard of
the death of the Hon. Hueu s. LEGARE,
Attorney General of the United States,
and acting Secretary Of State, He died at
Boston, at half-past 5 O'Clock, on the morn
ing Of the Goth ut., whittier he had gone
for the purpose of being present at the eel
ebration Of the completion Of the Bunker
Hill monument, Of inflammation Of the bow
els. Our eastern exchanges contain ac-
counts of his demise, with sketches of his
life. The following, we believe, is a cor
rect notice of his lineal descent and posi-
ton on most of the measures agitated du-
ring his public career.
Mr.. Legare descended from one of the
old French Huguenot families in South Car
DINA, who have been residents Of that state
since the Revocation Of the Edict of Nantz
lie never married, but devoted himself with
singeness and ardor to the study Of the Law
and to Literature, and attained decided en-
head of the Charleston Bar, and his contri-
buttons to the brilliant but short-lived
Southern Review" are among the aOlest Of
its contents. His paper on Roman Law"
in the New York Review" has been wide
~ and justly admired. 1t was rule of his
life to devote eight hours each day to study,
unless public duties mperatiyely forbade.
In the great Notification controversy
which divided South Carolina into two hos
tile camps, Mr.. Legare was arrayed on the
side of Union, Of which he was a powerful
champion. He was soon afterthc Compro-
mise Of 1898 appointed by General Jack
son Charge to Belgium, whence he return
cd in 1867. By the force of his talents
and genius he was chosen TO Congress from
Charleston in 1887, without opposition,
though that city had been strongly and Bit
ierly adverse to him in by-pasl politics. He
came into the Councils Of the Nation at
the memorable Extra Session Of 1887
when Van Buren, first unfolded his sub-trea-
sury project. OF this project Mr.. Legare
was an early, powerful, and most eloquent
opposer-the most effective, we believe, a.
mong a host Of Statesmen. To enter fresh
ly Congress Of which CLAY, WEBSTER,
Evans, etc were members. and make an
ADLER argument than either of them on the
great Currency subject which they had

Washington Immediately after the death Of
Mr.. LEGARE. The accounts given Of his
reception during his trip, are as ridiculous
on the one side as they are disgusting on
the other. We have purposely abstained
from giving them circulation, believing that
a desire to tatter on the one side, and to
cast opprobum on the other, led the writers
20 give any thing else but true statement.

| INrLUENzA.-This distressing disease
still continues to prevail in New York. The
correspondent of the National lntclIigen-
Ger in that city writes:
"Most Of those who went on to attend the
Boston celebration have come back with the cpl
demic influenza, and indeed, few have escaped it
Of those who remained in New York. 1t has
attacked horses and cows, understand as well
as enderer humanity, and with very much the
same symptoms. OF sons hundreds OF emf
grants, who arrived lately not one escaped it
while lying in quarantine. So no blame to the
Croton water has been attributed"
The last Evening Post speaks of the NAL.
ady as follows:
"The influenza, which prevails in this city and
other parts of the country, is the worst epidemic
Of the kind we have ever known. 1t is very gen.
eral, and so severe as, in many cases. to incapac-
itate people from attending to their ordinary bust.
ness We hear Of instances in which it is likely
to be fatal. We passed shop, the other day,
where the doors and windows were shut in con.
sequence Of the whole family having been taken
down with the influenza"
The disease has reached Baltimore, and
although numbers have felt its influence, it
does not. as yet, prevail generally.
The captain, several of the crew, and
most of the passengers of the steamship
Columbia, which arrived in Boston on Sun
day week, were suffering from this epidem-
lc. 1t made its appearance on ship board
soon after they got into soundings.
In Philadelphia, the disease is said to be
very prevalent.
1t has made its appearance in Pittsburg,
as we observe by the Daily Advocate of
the gath, some of whose hands were down
with it.

From the Missouri Statesman.
FLORIDA WAR CLAIMS.

In our paper Of last week our readers
were informed that we had received an
other letter from Senator Linn, accompa-
MED by the law Of the last session of Con-
gress in regard to the claims of volunteers
who lost horses, &C., in the Florida war of
37. The letter and law we take pleasure
in suboining, in as much as large class of
individuals are deeply interested in the
subject.
That those not intimately acquainted with
the matter may the better understand IT,,
we remark that the third Auditor of the
Treasury Department is the legally consti-
tuted tribunal before whom proof of these
claims is to be made, and by whom pay
ment is to be awarded or refused; and that
the expiration of the Act of 81 has been
among the reasons alledged by him for his
refusing heretofore to pay off the respec-
tive demands of the sufferers. Having ar
rived at this knowledge from our cores
pondence with the Auditor, we advised
Senator Linn of the facts, asking him 10
get Congress to revive the Act, in order
that further excuse or delay in the premi-
SEES might be avoided. He accordingly did
so; and it will be perceived the law below
published revives, for two years, the Act
of 1887.

DEAR SIR: Your two letters of March

ed earlier but for a severe attack of rheu-
matlsm, in my right hand and shoulder,
which made it painful to write Besides
| was DESTROYS Of having a copy of the law
of the last session, which were later than
usual in coming to hand. For fear the act
relating TO horses, &c. may have escaped
your attention, herewith send you a copy,
for your examination, and particularly the
lines underscored, as showing point upon
which Mr. Hagner had suspended many of
the claims. The fault on the part of the
claimants seemed TO be, that they PROVED
TOO MUCH. What new grounds he will
now take, it is impossible to divine. AS
Tennessee, Georgia, Louisiana, &c. were
largely interested in this matter; and the
delegation Of Tennessee took the most &C
tive part in the passage of a suitable law. it
was thought most prudent on our part not
to take the business out Of Mr.. Turney's
hands who so long, SO ably and zeaously
urged these demands upon the Justice of
Congress. During a short session and lit
orally overwhelmed with business, did al
IN my power to have justice done this class
of my constituents. | will always be
pleased TO hear from you on this subject.
