The famous "Seventh Regiment" of New York,
is encamped at Fort Scott, near New York, exer-
cising in drill and camp duty. Crowds visit the
encampment. Everything is conducted in true
military style; except that the published ''bl of
fare' shows that no soldier in "tented feld' ever
had greater variety of provison-and none
ever expect such feasting while in actual service.
OVERLAND Although several weeks
have elapsed since the passage OF the bill authori
zng the Secretary of the Treasury to advertise for
proposals to build Electric Telegraph to the

GEN. CAss AT HoME.-A telegraphic desratch,
published at the time, mentioned that the Demo
cratic State Convention of Michigan, which met at
Detroit on the 2Sth ultimo, tabled resolution that
proposed to invite Gen. Cass who was then in that
city, to attend and address the Convention. The
Detroit Free Press gives an explanation of this
proceeding, which we copy in justice to all con-
cerned 1t says:
"The resolution was offered without general
consultation with members, and while the Convan-
tion didnot, as they could not, doubt where Gen.
Cass stands in the present crisis they presumed
that, on account of his official position, it would
not be agree to him to address the Convention

HARMONY IN THE PARTY.-We have received very
gratifying information from gentleman just re-
turned from a visit to the Tenth Legion District as
well as from one of Mr.. Douglas warmest support
ers, that there will be effort to oppose the set
tement of all questions relating to the nominations
by the action of the State Convention.
All the hopes of the "Whig'' from divided and
distracted Democracy, thus vanish Virginia will
be a unit against Bell, and New York unit against
Lincoln. Mr. breckenridge will carry the South
Mr.. Douglas the North, and all present difficulties
will be settled in the family without the neiqhborlv
aid from either Opposition or Republican r ici-
mond Enquirer.
Mr.. T. I. Tredway, who was appointed an elector
by the Democrats in Virginia, has resigned because
he cannot presume to decide for his constituents
which of the conflicting tickets they ought to
adopt. As private individual, he intends to sup
port Mr.. Breckinridge.

E&5 The Republicans are great friends of
free speech, but they did not dare to listen
to speech from Jim Shanklin, at Mozart
Hall, and to get rid of him they had to put
out the lights. The cause which is reduced
to such an extremity must be low indeed. 1t
is the last gasp of an overgrOwn dying calf.
Enquirer.
What do you mean by it," neighbor 4?
You cannot say dramatically that " the
cause 3" 4" is the last gasp" sc. This would
be a solecism. But you are allowed by the
rules Of syntax to say "a speech, &C., 4" is
the last gasp" &c, because they are both eff
forts of the mouth and throat A cause" is
not. Therefore, you must mean that Jim
speech was " the last gasp Of an overgrown
dying calf" Mr.. Shanklin is a scholar.
Ask him if our grammatical criticism of
your expressions is not correct.
How unkind and ungrsteful in you to
treat the " Giant of the Pocket so, after
all he is doing for you. Such conduct is
worse than you was guilty of when you
wrapped yourself up in utter Indifference and

GzSSH a list of appointments il published
this morning for BENJAMIN HARRISON, can
didate for Reporter Of the Supreme Court,
and MILES J. FLETCHER, candidate for Su-
perintendent of Public instruction. Will
our friends up the River see that the notices
are well circulated ? Another list will 5000
be published, embracing nearly all the re-
mainder of this district, to be canvasSed by
Mr.. Harrison and Col. Allen of Yincennes.
We bespeak a kind reception for Messrs.
Il and F., who are not much known in
this part of the State Though both compar-
atively young in years, they are old in the
lore appertaining to their respective call
ings, and old also in experience. Mr.. Har-
rison is we'll educated in the profession of
the law, and has attained distinction as a
practicing attorney rarely equaled by a
person of his years. If elected Reporter of
our Supreme Court, he will furnish reports
of the decisions of that tribunal which will
compare favorably with those of any other
State, or any other former Reporter of this
State.
Prof Fletcher is Z gentleman OF thor
ough education. He has long been pro-
fessor in Asbury University at Greencastle.
He is no politician (though sound Re-
publican), but gives his time and attention
10 the interests of Education. He is Ire
scholar-one well up with the spirit of the
age, and not fogy. He is a hard-working
man-one who takes a strong interest in the
welfare Of the rising generation. Under his
management the School interests of the
State will be made all they eau be under
our lame and impotent Constitution.
Messrs. Harrison and Fletcher are gentle
men in every sense Of the word-practical
men-men of intelligence, and with no
stuck up notions. Our people caa not
fail to like them when they come amongst
us.

Letter From Illinois.
FAIRFIELD, Wayne Co. Ill.,,
August oath, 1860.


The cause of Republicanism is moving
on steadily and surely in Wayne and White
counties. In the GRANVILLE precinct White
co. in 1856 Fremont received nine votes
Lincoln now has one hundred votes there.
There are one hundred simon-pure Republi-
cans in the precinct. In the precinct in
which Liberty is situated (same county,
Fremont got seven votes. 1t is now thought
that Lincoln illcarry the precinct. Wayne
co. gave Fremont l2S votes it vii! give
Lincoln at least coo in November These
~figures show that the darkness of q Egypt"
vance of Republicanism, for unlike the De-
mocracy of 1860, which is inseparably con-
nected with darkness, ignorance, and cor
ruption, Republicanism, like all other truth,
can never succeed in the dark but always
prevails in the light. 1t never vegetables
in ignorance, but in intelligence. The sue
cess of Republi canism is inevitable.
The Egyptian orator, Congressman, exc
ponent of Popular Sovereignty, non-inter-
ventionism, and Douglasism generally, spoke
on the evening OF the 2lst at Grayville, to
a crowd Of about IT'S, about so of whom
were Republicans. The effort was made up
OF Misrepresentation of RepublicaniSm, low
abuse, and blackguardism.
The Republicans of Fairfield and vicinity
are preparing to give Richard Yates, their
candidate for Governor, a reception on the
9th of September worthy OF the man and
the cause he advocates. ~
