An order directing the change has
not been made public, neither have
the views of General Grant upon the
subject, which are understood not to
have been expressed in any writing.
There is the best authority for stating
that he regards the movement as most
unfortunate, though the change. of
Sheridan for Thomas will not change
the character of the execution of the
laws, unless the latter should be ham,
pered by new instructions. Although
there is no reason to believe that any
further Cabinet changes will be made,
it is an undeniable fact that the viru-
liant attacks upon Secretary McCul-
loch, now emulating from certain
quarters, are with view of affecting
his removal Numerous names are
mentioned in connection with the of
flee, but none more prominently than
that of John j Cisco, of New York.
There is no probability, however,
that the opposition to Mr., McCul-
loch will effect anything. although it
proceeds from quarters generally
deemed friendly to the administra-
ton. a ss..s.s
The story that Judge Advocate
General Holt has been granted leave
of absence until the 9Th of September,
preparatory, to his removal, has no
foundation, other than that on the
9th he was granted months leave
by Secretary Stanton, which he was
enjoying when the late assault on him
was made

families oftwo brothers lost their lives.
Hundreds were rescued from the tops
of trees, hay stacks, roofs of houses,

houseless and naked. Subscriptions
for their relief were flowing in, and
would do much to alleviate the dis
tress. -Four schooners were wrecked

Being County Court day and the 6rst
day of the Circuit Court, quite large
crowd Of our country people were attracted
to town last Monday. Being very closely
confined to the Office all day, we had little
chance to ascertain what was going on,
more than we could observe from our win
dow. We could see large crowds Of the
citizens of the county, some grouped about
examining the many fine horses that were
on exhibition, others hurrying to and fro,
apparently intent upon transacdng their
own business and letting others alone
The cry of the auctoneer was heard in
different places all day, and doubtless many
bargains were lost and gsined. We saw
very few drunken men. and heard Of only
one fight, aud nobody was seriously dam
aged in that. The county Conservative
Convention met on that day, full report
Of the proceedings of which may be found
in another place.

Fashions.

Il has been a matter Of great concern
with many persons Of taste for some time
before the spring and summer goods ar
rived, what would be the prevailing style
of the various articles Of dress the present
season. We confess that We felta little In
terest Ia tbs matter ourself SO far as gentle
mems hats were concerned. We have al
ways imagined that q gentleman dressed up
without nice hat was no gentleman, and
wasn't dressed up AZ all. Our friend, BOB
SHAPARD, of the firm Of WARD q Snap
ARD, knowing our anxiety on this subject,
while meking his spring and summer pur-
chases in the east this spring. made it a
speciality to find out what were the FASH
iOnable styles of hats, and made his puFeh-
asses accordingly, and We can conscientious
" say that Bon has lost none Of his char
actsr for general good taste in his selections
of hats, or anything else that we have exc
amined. Then. when his goods arrived,
I've mention this simply Is an evidence Of
his general good taste, Bon invited this
local in, and in the politest and most iusin-
uating manner imaginable, We just wish
all of our lady friends could have seen how
polite and delicate he was in the matter, J
convinced as that our old "plug' was
hardly decent, and before we could utter a
word of protest, he had bran new hat of
the latest style on our head, and politely
bowed us out Of his elegant establishment
before we had time to utter single word
of thanks.
Well, all the harm we wish BOB and the
firm is, that everybody may read their new
advertisement to-day. and that not one who
reads it win fail to give them CALL when
we are sure they will have a rich treat in
simply looking over their elegant stock,
and that they viii certainly be pleased in
every purchase they may make.

yesterday morning, left there We suppose
by the Grand Turk. We are warned not
to make an effort to iud out the objects of

many orders as you please, but if We catch

EDITOR OF CITIZEN You seem to ex-
press, in yoaF last issue, some surprise and
curiosity In regard to the Kuklux Khan,
whose bolduess aud affrOntery should so
startle you. That they should dare send
forth their imperial edicts or that the
GRAND CYcLoPs should presume to dis
patch his Grand Turk, with orders to his
faithful followers, or that they should dare
come SO near your editorial sanctums rs to
leave one OF their orders under your door.
Now sir, it is not to be wondered at that
you should express feelings of astonish-
ment, that after night has spread her dark
drapery over this sinful earths when balmy
sleep should enfold in her loving embrace,
all who have a clear conscience, aud when
all earth's innocent creatures Should be en-
jOying happy dreams, and the hideOus

own. We say sir, that we do not wonder
that you, together with this community.

BAD EGGs.-0ne day last week, mer-
chant in town stuck up in front of his
door, Immediately above two wash-tubs
Elled with eggs, the following strange sign !:
elf you will not help your neighbour, help
yourself Fresh eggs. free of charge
Help yOurself!' This unusual sign soon
attracted large crowd to the place, and
one liberal gentleman proposed to give the
merchant ten cents per dozen, and take all
he had. The proposition was accepted,
whereupon there was aperfect rush for eggs
by the by-stauders. all insisting that the
monopolist should not have all. The gen.
tleman said be only wanted few dozen, and
agreed that the. balance eff the crowd might
have the remainder Of the ninety-six dozen
between them, by paying the egg vender
his price. In few seconds the eggs we're
all gone. One gentleman purchased elev-
en- dozen, snd having carried them home,
sent out dozen aud ordered the cook tc
prepare them for dinner. The cook broke
the whole dozen without finding a good
egg, and reported to the boss. Another
dozen was sent out and found to be like
wise. And so the whole eleven dozei
were opended. and not one good egg wa
found among them. Out Of all Of ehe pur
chasers We have not heard Of one who ha'
eggs for dinner that day. Il is to be hope
that some have learned from this, that Cd
lowest priced articles are not always III
cheapest. aud that they may profit By look
ing over the columns of the CITIZEN, an

reliable merchants Of the town.
