SATI-GENERAL GRANTS FATHER Pre-
sEyT.-The Union Republicans of Cincin-
natl had grand rally and torchlight pro-
ccsson on Saturday night last. We quotc
from the Gazette
Among the distinguished citizens who
occupied seats at the principal stand, as
endorsing the proceedings, was Mr.. Jesse
r. Grant, the father Of the General, who,
in allowing himself to be presented to the
audience assembled to endorse Congress,
gave satisfactory assurance to the people
that he was not very ardent endorser of
"My Policy" Notwithstanding he was late
ly appointed postmaster of Covington,
Kentucky, under the new dispensation.
This fact seemed to satisfy the great as
scmbly of loyal people in another respect,
for as soon as Father Grant had been pre-
scented and cheered, three cheers wore of
fered and given for General Grant, all
being thus assured that he was still with
them.

MAYO of Richmond. Aistrop, it seems,
was charged before that official with petty
larceny, who required him to give security
in 500 to appear at court. An Irishman
present went his bail, and upon question
ing him why he did it, he said that the ne
gro had deposited with him as security a
fine gold watch and chain, which he ex-
hibited. The watch was at once recog-
nized by the officer as having been stolen
from a gentleman named Hickman; where
upon q warrant for felony was issued for
Aistrop, but he had smclt mice and sha-
ken the dust of Richmond from his feet.
Upon arriving here he was arrested, as here
totore reported, and will be returned to
Richmond to-day.-Lmchbny Neps, 18th.
