days ago communication expressing their wish TO present
his his fellowcsens a candidate for the Mayor
atty the ensuing election, independent Of all questions
connected with the politics Of the day, and solely in consd
Grafton Of his long useful services in the Councils and
of his fitness for the place.
10 this cmmunication the following reply has been
ceiyed:

beer difficult for me to resist the friendly call you have
made upon me- but agreeing as do entirely with oil that

The fact Is quite the reverse Mr. Maury has done at

Mr.. Maury it who suggested the iea-and through

want the proof Consult the Corporation account at the

Again In what condition does the Corporation find telf
in reference to the change of the of ber Greek
through the square $50, near the railroad depot!
On the 18th September 1851 the Councils appropriated

through square $780, with this proviso he Mayor shall
make arrangements by which the Corporation shall be
held to pay more than the amount hereby appropriated
without making any arrangements whatever, Mr. Lenox
directed the Of the creek to be changed to cut

In consequence of this neglect the Councils have lately
been obliged to appropriate thousand dollars to
enable the Mayor with the propieors of the
square the damages which they claim to the amount of
several thousand dollars Who say what additional
preparations this may yet be demanded in what
depths of litigation the Corporation may find itself involved!
Do you call this efficiency?
OF the efficiency Mr. Lcnox 1T would be we'll for his

From a Portsmouth Correspondent

-, VA, June =, 1882
FRIEND CONNOLLY: Your Telegraph has
been eagerly sought after here since you hoisted
the banner of the old hero of Lundy's Lane, sc.
Although most ofthe Wings here, and elsewhere,
would, if it we're possible, retain Mr.. Fill
more in the chair of state, yet, as sensible men,
they see the folly Of such an attempt and are
not willing to sacrifice the only sure prospect Of
success, by allowing personal wishes and predi-
lections IN favor Of an individual, however worthy
and deserving to bias our Judgments and throw
us an easy prey into the jaws Of the opposition.
The national character of Gen. Scott, the halo Of
military glory that encrcles his name and the
disposition Of the American people to reward
those who have performed meritorious acts, will
bring to his support an avalanche Of those who
could be brought to sustain no other man.
We are making up large list for " The Rights
Of The People" We now have thirty names. We
want to make it fifty before we send it up.
