n@-The rush of breadstuffs towards
tide-water, compared with last year, is
very strong. The receipts of -four and
wheat at Buffalo, Oswego, and Ogsden-
burg, New York, this year are VA, IT'S
barrels in excess of the same time last
year. This is an excess of -four exceed
ing the entire exports of that article
from New York this year nearly 800, 900

The Chicago Times inquiries of the
Washington Union as to the views OF
the Administration in reference to the
duty of Democrats to support the nom
inees of their party. The Union an
swers on its own responsibility:
Upon general principles, and having
in mind an earnest wish to seeure the
triumph of the Democracy, and an abid-
ing faith in the justice of the noble
cause, we would counsel our friends
faithfully to abide the decision of Dem
ocratie- conventions, and earnIs ly and
truly seek the election of their nom
nees To this rule we never knew. of
an exception which in our Judgment
was sufficient to Justify a refusal to
obey the laws of party. Again, at this

enemy; VS. will add that if heretofore it
could be said that it was wrong to
Hrangle and quarrel, it is criminal to
do SO now.

GYrCholera being the disease above
all others most dreaded, it will be well
for all to bear in mind that as a proven
tive, DR.. j. HosTETER's celebrated Stom-
ach Bitters stand at the head, and there
fore all should keep a supply at hand
during this warm weather. Its effect up
on the Stomach when disorganized by
iiet, and its vivifying influence upon
the system, is truly astonishing, and
cannot be described, but felt when used
as per direction on the Bottle. Further

The Secretary of war.

The House on Wednesday of last
week, passed the resolution declaring
that ''there were no facts or circumstan-
ces disclosed in the Fort Smelling inves-
tigatiO impeaching the integrity of the
Secretary of War" The vote was a
handsome one-133 to 60. None but
the canes of partizans could ever have
made so unwarranted and securrilous
an attack upon a hiehminded and hon
orable gentleman. But there are some
black republicans who will doany thing.

II BORDER INTERPRETATIONS OF
THE INTENDED DESIGNATION OF COVER

THE r D NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF
Il INTENDED RESIGNATION OF COVER.
G MOI, DENVER.
The st. Louis 2ReouJlican of the Isl
(inst. says:
1.-THE intentions of Governor Stewart,
respecting the disturbances in the Wes-
tern part of this State, by bands of des-
peradoes from Kansas, some of whose
Ipw1ess acts have already beea given to
= The rubhc, were manifested yesterday.
"A gentleman who came down in the
cars last night from Jefferson City, in
forms US that, before his departure, the
Governor had resolved to resort to sum-
mary measures to, restore peace and Sc
curity to persons and property within
the section of the State harrassed and
plundered by the reckless Montgomery
and his confederates, and that the ex-
treme, though necessary measure, repell-
ingssforce by force, was justifable under
present circumstances.
On yesterday. therefore, Thirty boxes
ofmWskets were Withdrawn from the
State Armory for transport to Kansas
City. They were in charge of Quarter
master General Aackney."
The ST. Louis Dsmocret has the fol-
lowing:
GA gentleman, resident of Kansas,
who arrived in our city last evening, in
forms us that the United States Deputy
/ Marshal. who had been sent out BY
Governor Denver, in pursuit of Mont
gomery, had returned and reports that
he came up with that person, and upon
showing his authority to capture him,
he was himself taken prisoner by Mont
gomery, on thursday night last, but
treated with every respect. Montgom
cry informed him (the MarshalD that
all the d%cpredations had been commit
ted by Hamilton, who was at the head
of the mnan of the gang of robbers
formerly under the command of Buford,
and who have been providing through
the Territory and in Missouri, ever since
the invasion ofKansas by the Georgians
and South Carolinians under Buford,
Wilkes, and other Southern leaders.
Hamilton, after the commission of tho
recent horrible murders, had fed from
the Territory, and was understood to
be en .howte for Georgia. 1t is supposed
Governor Denver will offer a reward for
his apprcnensions, and that if he can
be found, proper steps will be taken to
bring him to Justice"

Jefferson and Tom Moore.

There is an amusing episode in Jefferson s
public career which is related by Mr.. Ran
dali in quiet vein of subdued humor-
Thomas Moore visited the United States in
1884, at the age of twenty -four, just af-
ter he had acquired dubious notoriety by the
publication of Little's poems He was pre-
sented to President Jefferson by Mr.. Merry,
the British minister. It seems that Jeffer-
son, not taware of the identity of the poetical
young gentleman probably not having
heard of, and certainly not having read, his
amorous lucubrations- simply spoke to the
illiputian stranger, looking down coldly on
him, as six feet two will look down on five
feet three, and then passed. This was in
June, 1906, and Moore, much offended,
"fell to lampooning the President and every
thing American, except few attentive
Federal ladies and gentlemen" These he
published on his return to England, and that
what he wrote in verse was his full oonvic-
tion is evident from his private letters to his
mother from America, which Lord Russell,
with his usual want of Judgment, has pub
lished with Moore's Diaries. -.
When some Of Jefferson's intimate friends
saw the verses in which Moore had not only
abused America, but lampooned her Chief
Magistrate, they determined to place the
subject before the person chiefly concerned.

A LITERAL JokE.-The Parisians are
laughing over the last good story from the
German watering places. It appears that
the Princess NJ, who resides in sumptuous
chateau, near the Baths Of Neuwied, sent a
dinner invitation, according to her hospi-
table custom, to the Major p, an officer on
service at the garrison near by. The Major
chauced to be on duty, and was obliged to
decline; but, on sending his excuse by his
faithful Sergeant, he told him to bring him
his dinner as he came back-meaning, =, Of
course, that he should go for it ito the neigh
boring restaurant The subaltern Glanced
to be very literal in his habit Of mind, and
he delivered the too e,,unds at once, to the
servant at the gate Of the, chateau. ss
Very much astonished, at first, that her
proposed guest should send for his dinner,
