Change of Bnse.

Mr.. EDiroR.-I learn from n member
of the Coppcrhead Convention, which
was held at Bristol a few days since, that
Hon. George w. Grandey is to be their
candidate for States Attorney at the
coming election, and that the President of
the Convention said he did it at lis re-
quest Does Mr.. Grandey claim to be a
member of the Union Party, or has he
gone over and joined himself to the sad
remains of the late Copperhead Party
Let him show his colors to the frecmen
of Addison County. If lie claims to be a
Union man let him show it by standing
by the regular nominations of the Union
Party. The idea that every one who is
not pleased with the nominations of his
party can set himself up as an indepcn-
dent candidate, to use a popular phrase
is about "paycd out" l should think
Mr.. Grandcy would understand that by
this time.
If Mr.. Grandcy claims that this is not
n dodge to get himself before the people
as an Independent candidate, but that he
has really gone over to the camp of tho
enemy, l have no advice to give.

KETCHUM ARRESTED.

Edward b. Ketchum, member of the
New York banking house Of Morris Ket.
chum, Son & CO., was arrested on Friday
last at New York where he has remained
ever since his disappearance. lie accom-
panied the officer to police headquarters
without making objections. His father
was notified and came to see him, and
when he met Edward at the police station
he said: My son, my son, you have
ruined me, but forgive you. The in
tepvicw was protracted and affecting and
the result was complete reconciliation.
The deneanor of young Ketchum was
very cool. lie did not betray any sense
of crimnaliiy. lie spoke freely of his
money operations, saying, that Mt one time
he held 100000 worth of property.
His losses hogan with the decline of gold,
and the amount involved is about "a, O0O,-
600. We trust he will suffer the PENALTY
of the thief AMI the forger. The we'll
heing of society and the security of prop
erty demand that he should be punished
according to the nature and extent of his
thcfts and forgcrics. The entire amount
Of the abstraction Of bonds and the forgery
Of gold paper, by +. Il. kctchum, the
defaultcr, is set down at $4,000, 600
Now is the time to teach young men that
money and position will not retard the
course of justice, that crime and suffering
are linked together by iron bands

RECEIPTS OF CoTToN IN New York.
We notice that large supplies of cotton
from the South are almost daily arriving
in the New York market. During the
last six weeks, the receipts in this mar
kct alone have been over 100. 900 bales.
At the last advices, there were on hand
in New Orleans Sl,66S bales. At Mo-
bile and in North Ala, there is very
large amount TO be brought forward = =
Over $4,000 bales may be gathered up
in Florida. Our cotton mills are rapidly
going into operation.
Thousands of women and children
have found employment, and passed from
a condition of suffering to one of comfort.
This great staple, this king of the South,
although dethroned, coming into North
ern cities he will not be shorn of all his
majesty. We shall feel his royal influence
upon our currency, gold will grow dim in
his presence and its value will be some
what diminished.

The Atlantic Cable.

1t is very remarkable that the insula-
ton of the cable should have been lost twice
by the same accident Upon hauling in
il was found that an iron wire had been
driven through it at right angles, project
ing into the water so as TO dissipate the
electric current. 1t is still more remark
able that these two accidents should have
occurred between the same watches, after
the cable had left the tank. 1t is
thought by those who had the best op-
portunitics of knowing, that the parting
and loss of the cable are to be attributed
to the same cause. 1t is probable there
has been foul play. Some scoundrel has
been employed by parties interested to
defeat this gigantic and expensive under
taking. Should he be discovered. it
would give us little pain 10 see him safely
incarcerated, with cable from one an
kle to the other, another running from
wrist TO wrist. Then, after meagre
diet, fair trial and time for repentance
we wonld earnestly recommend that ca
bic should be thrown over a horizontal
bar some fifteen feet high, having one
end firmly attached to his neck, and the
other in the hands Of an officer, ready to
begin the work of isolation and suspen-
sion

SEVERE HAIL STORM. Several days
ago thunder storm, accompanied with
hail, came up from the northwest and
passed over Glen's Falls, which was one
of the heaviest and most destructive that
has been known there in twenty years.
The ground was white with hail. and at
dar it was found on the north side of
bui lc.I e three or four inches deep. A
mile Forth Of that place the storm ragged
more iuriously than at the Falls. In one
house over thirty panes Of glass were bro
ken. The trees looked as if they had
been stripped by worms corn leaves
were cut into slreds, and thrifty fields of
buckwheat were entirely destroyed.

a soldier, who for Il long time was
prisoner under this iend, gives ,he follow
ing description of him:
This Wirz claims to be a n French
man. lie is about As years old, below
the medium ! e ght, stout and comractly
built; has round shoulders, thick, short
neck, black, brlstly hair, somewhat gray,
low forehead, small, black, sinister eyes,
glistening under heavy, shaggy eyebrows
and very dark complexion. To all this
we may add cowardicc and the picture is
complete. At first sight our instinct
would teach us that he is the man for
mcanncss, treason, stratagem and spois,
a fit tool to carry out the Internal designs
OF his master, TO taunt, starve and tor
turc Union prisoners. lie would grin,
(or he could not laugh) and say, "Ah,
la, another Iank gone TO hell, his Satan
ic majesty will have to annex New Eng
land to his dominions for want of room. +"
To the surgeon he would often say; ''The
more that die the less we shall have to
to feed or fight [ take good care to par
ole them all, so as to have them count in
exchange He is the man who fellcd to
the ground boy, l6 years old, belonging
TO an Iowa regiment, because he sang
"Sweet Home" His head was so badly
cut that he only lived to reach Nashville,
where he died beneath that old flag he
loved so well. Should we not rejoice to
see tile strong arm of justice holding to its
bar such fend as Wirz a!

your country to discharge the sacred duty
YOU owe to her OF setting apart one day
in the year TO vote for such men, as you
\ deem hest fitted, to discharge the several
trusts 10 which they may be elected.
Never before, since you have become
voters, perhaps, have you been called
upon to discharge that duty with more
care than now. We are just emerging
tn,m the the thick clouds of war, into
which our country has been thrown by
vic tra;tors-a war that has almost hush
ed all the contending elements of low par
~ strife. We at the north, are now not
hardly known as partisans, but as pat
riots, breathing one spirit of universal
freedom. Although we contend that the
Republican party has always been essen
tidly right, yet we can embrace all who
have the good of their country at he ,rt,
without regard to former party ties.
Let the, minister 20 to the polls and
vote.
Let the soldier who has perlled his
life for eiis country, 90 to the polls also,
and s.ieE to the world that he knew what
lie was fighting for.
Finally, let every lover of his race 90
up to tho ballot-box and vote for men
WHO are known to be loyal, patriotic low
cIs Of Freedom.
The men who are recommended on the
Republican ticket deserve well of their
country, and if elected, as they most GER
t"inly VIZ be, will discharge the duties of
Office with fidelity.
Once more we say turn out and vote!

Renovation of South and North Caro-
lima aud Virginia.


lima aud Virginia.
We have observed movement on the
part OF several enterprising men to intro
dnce into this country, upon large scale,
the culture and manufacture of silk. The
mulberry is indigenous. The central Sec
ton of the United States, embracing
South and North Carolina, Virginia,
Kentucky, Tennessee and other states in
the same latitude, is highly favorable to
the growth and propagation of the silk
worm. IT would appear to be no very
difficult matter to form a company for
such an enterprise from the great silk i'm.
porterS of New York. They have the
money, and can easily attract from France
and Italy the best workmen in silk fabrics.
They could easily induce colony of
Frcnchmen or Italians TO emigratc to the
country anil could readily establish a
large Silk Factory.
Should they offer reasonable price
for the cocoons, their Factories would be,
amply supplied with the said material.
Thousands of colorcd people in the South,
women and children would gladly engage
in planting the mulberry, gathering the
leaves, aud in rearing and feeding the
worms. The silk, in addition to the cot
ton interest, could scarcely fail to reno
waite the South and cause her desolatons
10 rejoice and blossom as the rose. Here
is a field for enterprise.
Whoever enters it, is sure TO have the
ladies on his side to cheer and encourage
him under snch an influential patronage
how could he fail. They wear the silks
and must have them. They command a
large share Of the floating capital of the
whole country. There will be little dan.
ger from retrenchInent or change of fash
ion. To complete silk dress this gener.
alton requires 80 per cent more of the
material than any former ore. Besides.
we live in, a progressive age, and who
knows what the next generation may re-
quire.'
