The village Of Brattleboro, deter
mined, apparently, not 10 be behind
Woodstock, recently had an exhibition
Of fistcufis in its streets, between no
less personage5 than Hon. Charles X.
Field and Major John G. Tyler. The
former il seems applied some offensive
epithet to Gen. VIM. b. Smith, which
the latter, having been on the Gener-
ais staff, resented, and SO they came
to blows.
Rev. c. B. Smith, late principal Of
Brandon Seminary, and former chap

CHICAGO.

The public interest, naturally enough. CEN
tres, at this moment, on tho Chicago Conven'
ton for the character for the campaign. If not its
issue, depends upon the nomination TO be made
there. "What will they do with i'll" il qne5-
ton which concerns the Union party quite as
much as it does those on whom the hard Ia, k OF
doing it devolves. Seymour and Mcclellan are
the two prominent candidates, but it will not be
the first time-should that happen-itth tho prom
nent men should be thrown overheard and the
clashing interests ard difficulties rcoonciled BY
tho choice of a third man. But this seems bard
ly likely. The tug Of war may como quite aS
much upon the adoption Of Platform as upon
tho choice OF Candidate. But Demo
crss are proycrbislly fertile in compromises
and oxpedcnces. If candidates and Platforms
can not DO made to agree, there may DO an
agreement that there shall be no differences
that shall divide the party. facile war-Demo-
crst, ike Mcclellan, may be made 10 stand on
his pegs, like limp tin soldior, on Peace
Platform: the Peace men will probably demand
that much, and the Mcclellan mon may accede
10 il with the mental reservation that they will
try TO make peace, and. If that is impossible to
fight it out-if they can't help themselves.
Both Peace candidate and Peace Platform seem
hardly possible, though all things arc posi-
BILE with Democratic politicians. who seldom
quarrel when an election IL pending. The
lion and the lamb can liz down together
when they both smell the pleasant pastures
Of prey and power. and to that end al
Democrats are the most peaceful creatures
living. But a war candidate and peace plat
form. or peace candidate and no platform at
all--they will be sure TO fix il somehow. When
il comes TO practical mscegenation OF this
sort, your Democrats are the most complainant
and accommodating Of men. They do thei'
quarrcling in the bar-rooms, not in the Conyon'

We learn by note from Washington that
the Rebels are crossing the Potomac at the
fords above Harpers Ferry. The Intelligence
comes to US from such quarter that we are IN
clined to credit it, though We can conceive DINO
good reason why. if it be true, it should not
have been sent by telegraph direct from Har-
per's Ferry. 1t is not, perhaps, permitted 70
come over the wires by the censor, lest the
country be alarmed; but if it DO true, the
sooner the country is alarmed it seems to US,
the better. 1.-THE Rebels are first heard OF IN
Pennsylvania, as they certainly Will be II they
got there, needless panic might then be Gre
ated, which would be forestalled if they were
first heard Of at the Potomac fords.
No such movement, however, can have taken
place without the full knowledge Of Gen. sherl'
idan. He has, doubtless, contemplated 1t as
among tho possible contingencies, and has,
therefore, held his forces well in hand to meet
that as well as any other movement that Early
might propose 10 make. Should another inva'
sion have really been undertaken, the prudence
and caution which Sheridan has observed fol
some days past are fully justified, if they need
ed any justification. In a letter from Washing
ton, which We publish this morning, is On ex'
tract from one from the renegade Col. Dunham'
found in Rebel mail, in which he avows thai
another raid into Pennsylvania is proposed BY
Esrly. How much truth there is in tho story
we shall know in a day or two; in the mean
time we think it well, whether we may agree
with the censor or not, that the public should
be warned Of possible danger. If true, 1t
well it should be known, and even if not true
warning can DO no harm.
