PARTY AND sEcTAR1AN sTRIFE.-Dr. Bryant, of
Philadelphia, of the noble volunteers now at
Norfolk, in letter to the Pennsylvania Inquirer,
after referring to the of and distress
caused by the epidmic, adds:
Party strife is rampant through the land; and
while politicians are Illuminating their anathemas
abroad here, in the city of pestience, Catholics and
Professionals men of the North and men of the South
peacefully and tremendously unite in all the offices
of brotherly love and sefsacr6cing kindness. How
all party spirit and bgotry pale before this sublime
picture, and hide their diminished heads! Before
partisan strife has taken its phrensied hold upon
community, and severed the ties which bind us as
people, let learn these important lessons from
the present affective dispensaton of Providence
try; that, whatever religion may profess, we
should make it the chief aim of our being to exer-
else towards each other that charity which, in the
Divine Scriptures said to be greater virtue than
faith and hope"

H1eHFAIur1N-One of the fair sex having sent
the editor of the Wheeling Intelligencer boquet,
he discourses about it in the following sentimental
strain:
"THANKs to the lady who sent to our sanctum
that beautiful boquet! We do love flowers at all
times, but when they come to US as the dying glo-
ries of Autumn, at time when sorrow is brcoding
darkly over us-when they come to the choi-
death by the protecting hand of Beauty-delicatey
xpressive-breathing the pure language of sym
pathizing heart-they doubly dear. Heaven
bless fair friend Long after her beautiful token
around u.s. bright and deathless as the ivy that cngs
to some lone, deserted castlel"
Wonder he didn't evaporate after penning that

Col. BRAxToN BRAGG.-The citizens of Raleigh
have rendered to this distinguished gentleman (now
on a visit to this place. Public Dinner as some
evidence of their appreciation of his important
vices in the army, and of the pride with which they
regard him as native son of the State. He has,
however, regret to state, declined to accept it
and this regret we know, is shared by the entire
community. He stated to the Committee that he
felt profoundly grateful for the honor; but must be
permitted in accordance with a resolution long since
formed on the subject, to decline it.

GOVERNOR sHAsNoN.-To show the Southern peo-
pie how Wilson Shannon, the newly appointed Gov
of Kansas, is regarded by the Abolitionists,
quote the following language of that arant Free
soiler John Wentworth of Chicago:
Those who know Wilson Shannon, know that
he is Southerner in all his notions-as much so as
any one of the firm of Douglas, Atchison, String
fellow and Co. He goes to Kansas to make Kansas
a slave State. His antecedents must be known to
Gen. Pierce. He old Tyler man. Although
elected to the office of Governor of Ohio by the Dem
ocrats, he came out with letter endorsing John
Tyler, and by the same John Tyler he was given a
foreign mission.
By strange combination of circumstances he
was elected to Congress for term, and for one
only. During his Congressional career he was a
Southerner in all his notions and all his votes. His
record is right and what is better his heart right
for Douglas and slavery. He goes to Kansas to in
fct deadly blight upon its rising hopes, and to
curse its people with bondage 1t remains to be
seen who has the brighter future, Reeder Shan
non the patriot traitor!
"Let Shannon recognise this mob of Douglas ties
that processes to be the Legislature of Kansas,
and the next House of Representatives will pin a
clause to the next appropriation bill that will declare
all such infamy void. There is hope in the next
Congress!

MISSISSIPPI.

The elections in this State will take place on the
9Th of next month. The Washington Union, no.
ticing the canvass in that State, says:
Our intelligence from Mississippi is of the most
cheering character in regard to the prospects of
brilliant victory in the approaching election Know
nothingism had taken deep root in that State, and
when the opened some of our trueSt friends
feared that it could be eradicated in time
cure an old-fashioned democratic triumph At pre-
sent however, assured on all hands that the
lower of the secret organization is utterly broken
down. We have watched the canvass in MISSISSIPPI
pi with much interest, and we hesitate not to say
that it has been conducted with spirit of devotion
to democratic principles, and with ability and
energy the part of our public speakers and news
papers, that will compare favor aby with any
in any State in the Union. Amongst the noble
champions who have distinguished themselves in
the contest, and contributed largely to the present
bright prospects of the democracy, may be par
doned for abiding to the Hon. Jacob Thompson, for
many years prominent member of Congress, and
at all times able, eloquent, and consistent advo-
cate of democratic principles. He has canvassed
Mississippi as candidate for United States senator,
in accordance with custom which has long prevail
ed in that State His competitor in the canvass is
Senator Adams, the present incumbent The mott
ces of the discussions between them which have
reached claim for Mr.. Thompson succession of
decided triumphs. This could hardly be otherwise,
since Mr.. Adams undertakes to sustain the know
nothing organiZaton-that were more than one OF
far greater abilities than Mr.. Adams could do. I'm
less our friends in Mississippi greatly mistaken,
know-nothingism is doomed to one of its most dis
astrious defeats in that State"
Our information from friends in Mississippi, is to
the same effect. The K. Ms mag elect one Con-
gresham, but that will be ALL The Legislature will
be largely Democratic.

THE GEORGIA ELECTIONS

Late Savannah and Augusta papers contain the
most cheering news from the Georgia elections.
Five Democrats and anti Know Nothings, including
Messrs Cobb and Stephens certainly elected to
Congress, and three Know Nothings. Governor
johnston has made great run-he is reelected by
majority ranging from FIVE to eight thousand. At
his first election his majority only five hundred
and ten. The Savannah Georgian Of the 4th, says:
1.-The reelection of Gov. johnson by the people,
We think is certain, by very large majority-a
majority that will make glad the hearts of his friends
and prove signal rebuke to his implacable and I'M
scrupuous enemies. BY rough calculation we set
it down at from 5000 to 5000 The Seventh and
Eighth Districts have done most nobly. 1t is posi-
bic however, that returns yet to may change
the result very materially, though the glorious Sixth
not yet heard FROM it is hoped, will all
large gains.
of the eight Congressional Districts we still con-
idently claim five. Linton Stephens notwithstand-
inc his gallant battle, it is feared is defeated; so
also Smith of the Third, and Warner of the Fourth
Full and correct returns, however, may show diff.
ferent result Seward, A. Ell. Stephens, Crawford,
Lumpkn, and Cobb, it is believed, triumphantly
elected.
The returns for the Legislature are equally graft
ying. If our dispatches at all to be relied upon,
it cannot fail to be largely Democratic
Since the above was written we have received a
dispatch from the Chronicle & Sentinel stating that
,Johnson's majority in the eighth District is $50 !;
Stephens majority $500, Serven yet to hear from
While this is but little less flatterng for johnson
than first dispatch, published elsewhere, it is
most triumphant report for the great champion of
Anti-Know Nothingism.'
The Democratic gain in the 7th District-Linton
Stephens brother of A. H. Stephens-is1 176; and
in the 6th-A. H. Stephens District-it is 4 10
showing a total gain for Governor in the two Dis
tricts of 1881.
Know Nothingism has been scorned and repudi-
ated by the people of Georgia. Its overthrow in
that State is alike signal and complete
