GENERAL GRANT AND TIE RADICALS
The Cincinnati Gazette Of June 4, referring
TO the reported interview between Judge
Carter and General Grant, and the state
ment that the former had asked the Gene
raj with which party he would act if elect
ed to the presidency, says, after quoting a
paragraph on the subject from the hide
pendent:
"The above is the opening Of long arti-
Gle, in which the Independent proceeds to
second the effort Of Wendell Phillips to
demolish General Grant. The story would
certainly be an extraordinary one if it
were true but it is not true that Judge
Carter called on General Grant to ascer-
tain with which party he would act , If
he should be n candidate for the presi-
dency. 1t is very we'll known by those
who have converSed with General Grant
that he has no sympathy with the Demo
cratic party, and if it so happens that he
is candidate for the presidency, he will
run as a Republican. General Grant has
not seen fit to express publicly his political
views; but it is we'll known that he does
not try to conceal from those who converse
with him that his sympathies are decidedly
with the Republican party; and, further
more, it will probably be found that he is
quite as efficient in sustaining the princi-
pies of the party as those who assail him.
General Grant may or may not be can
didate for the presidency but it is due to
him, and it is but just to say, that ne is
Republican, and would Indignantly de-
cline nomination from any other party

| The PRBSBYrERY OF RAPPAHANNoCR
commenced its sessions on Thursday night
| last in this town. The opening sermon
was preached by the Rev. A. ID. Pollock,
so long and favorably known in this and
! distant communities. His discourse was
an interesting one, and was delivered in
that peculiar style the simplicity,
strength and originality Of which has long
placed him among the foremost divines of
the Church. After the religious services
were over, the Presbytery was called to
order by the Rev. John w. Pugh. The
roll being called, the following ministers
and ruling elders answered to their names
Revs. A. d. Pollock, John w. Pugh,
Thomas B. Balch, John W. McMurran, and
Edward II. Cumpston Elders j. Randolph
Tucker, Walter Somerville, Oscar S. Bra
den, W. W. Williamson, William f. Glas-
sell, and j. Potterfeld.
The Rev. Edward IT. Cumpston was
elected Moderator, and W. W. Williamson
temporary clerk.
Rev. r. T. Berry and Rev. Mr.. Henry
being present were invited to seats as cor
responding members.
a motion to adjourn to Q A. NJ. Friday
was carried and after prayer and the bene-
diction the congregation dispersed.
On Friday the Rev. r. l.. McMurran and
Rev. j. W. Lupton presented demits from
Winchester Presbytery, and were received
by Rappahannock Presbytery. The chief
business Of the Presbytcry is presumed to
be of special interest to the members Of its
denomination, but the sessions are open,
and the public are invited to attend. No
tice was given that preaching might be ex-
pected morning and night, at the usual
hours, during the sittings Of the Presby-
H'arrertOn Iader.

EXTRAORDINARY SUIcIDE.-The other
day, as the Hudson River Railroad train
was passing Stockport, short distance
from Albany, a German jumped from the
platform Of one of the passenger cars, and
was undoubtedly killed. He had a large
sum of money on his person, and from bis
talk and actions was thought to be crazy.
He took the other passengers for thieves
and pickpockcts, and every few minutes
grasped q revolver, which Ike kept on his
lap, as if to defend himself from an ina
gined attack. His felow-passengerS were
considerably frightened, thinking he might
shoot some Of them, and they felt relieved
when he left the car.
