SCHOOL TRUsTEE.-In Carson, the SAM
as in this city, the Union men made no nomi
nation for Trustee. and the election turn.t
entirely on individual popularity. Or ole
friend Il. L. Gardner, of the Ormsby House
asks US to state that it WIS NJ. {. Gardner
and not himself, who was elected Trustee II
that city.-Satuwday's Irespass.
If the conductors of the TrespasS
have read the APPEALS statements con
corning the matter in question, they
should know that Mr.. Meder 1rGs unani-
1nouslv nominated at a largely attended
meeting of Union men and that that
nomination was afterwards concurred
in BY the County Central Committee.
It may be " policy" to smother the
fact that Meder was the regular nomi-
nee of the party, but as the foregoing
extract seems TO imply that he was SIM
ply the unwarranted nominee of the
APPEAL, we take this much pains to re-
new the statement that his candidacy
was in every respect as regular as it
could have been made without being the
work of convention called for the
purpose. Mr.. Gardeners popularity had
mnch to do with his success there is
no doubt of that but, iEasmuch as the
APPEAL advocated Meder solely upon
the ground of his being the regular
Union candidate, we do not choose to
be placed in a wrong position and be
made to appear as trying to run the
party" by remaining silen. when the
facts in the case are misrepresented as
in the above statement. We propose to
move with the party, not to lead it, nor
TO foist any candidates of our own nomi
nation upon it. Will the Trespass give
this statement as much prominence as il
did its own?

EASTERN DISPATCHES.
From the Virginia Enterprise of Sunday ]

claimed that there was no conspiracy on tn
part of the President. He said evdenc
would be produced to show that the only OBJ
iect he had in view was to get the matter be
fore the Court. He then proceeded to conside
the Objectionable speeches. He claimed
that high crimes and misdemeanOrs must b
by criminal acts against the United States
or against some existing law. He then re
viewed the eleventh article, which he de
clared was absurd, as the President hae
recognized Congress as legal body eve
since he had been President.
At the conclusion of Curtis speech the
Senate took short recess.
Upon reassembling, the Presidents coun-
sci put General Lorenzo Thomas on the
stand, who testified relative to his appoint
ment as Secretary of War ad interim and
his subsequent proceedings.
Butler objected to the question regarding
the conversation between the President and
witness after his first demand for possession
of the War Office.
After considerable discussion the question
was admitted.
Witness said that after informing the
President that Stanton had asked for time to
remove his papers, the President simply
replied " Very well, go on and obey your
orders" He did not see the President
again till after his arrest and liberation on
bail, when he visited the President and in
formed him that he was in custody, and on
what charge. The President said " Very
well, that's where l want tin Court"
Witness narrated the circumstances hap
pening after he went to the War Office the
same morning, demanding possession, which
Secretary Stanton refused. He stated that
after members Of Congress and others had
left he complained to Stanton that he had
been arrested before breakfast and had had
nothing 10 eat OF drink that morning. Stan
ton playfully said that he could remedy that
and produced 4 bottle and they took drink
together. LLsughter.l lie declared that

Gen. Grants western Tour
Enthusiastic WeIcOme EV-
erVWhRFe


The special correspondent Of the Cincin-
natl Gazette writes as follows: General
Grant and party, who left L~eavenworth
on Saturday last for Denver, received an
ovation all along the line of the road
Several hundred people were at the LeaV-
enworth depot when he started. The
locomotive of the train was trimmed with
flags and wreathS. At TOnganoXle the
entire population came out TO greet him.
A salute was fred and the people gathered
around the cars and called for Grant until
he appeared and bowed his acknowledge
ments. At Reno there was another large
crowd, and equal enthusiasm. At North
Lawrence not less than three thousand
people were present with a band of music,
cannon, flags, and all insignia Of an
enthusiastic welcome. The cheering was
deafening until the three Generals sppear-
ed on the platform Of the cars. Repeated
calls were made for q speech, but nom
was made. The people rushed in from all
directions to shake hands with the hero,
and no greeting could be more sincere
and heartfelt. At Williamsville, Perry
vile and Medina there were crowds of
/ people, flags, cheers and Joyous welcome.
At Granville there was another crowd OF
enthusiastic people who told the General
the town was named after him. At Per-
ryvllle there was Il banner with the motto
''the ladies of Perryville welcome the next
President" AT Topeka there was anoth-
er large crowd, who cheered and shook
hands with the General, and cheered
again. They also brought ont the old gun
which used to guard the town against
guerrillas during the war, and fired 4
salute.
Thus it was at Wamego. Manhattan,
Fort Riley, Junction City, Ellsworth, and
at all the other towns on the road large
crowds assembled and gave the General y
most hearty and cordial welcome. In
travelling over the country, Gen. Grant
hal spread out before him q large map Of
this portion of the Union. He examined
the country, made inquiries about every
thing new TO him, or which b did not
understand, made notes on the map, and
hardly allowed a moment to pass I'M
improved. He told several good stories
during the day, and seemed to enjoy the
trip with genuine h~eartiness. But, strange
TO tell, Le did not smoke any. Another
noticeable feature of the trip was there
was nOIbaskets Of wine, private bottles o. /
TASKS with the party. If ever q man had
the appearance of being strictly temperate,
that man is General Grant. Hardly less
remarkable than this was the fact that
there was not an oath uttered BY any man
in that car during the day.

steel Rails for Railroads.

1t is now generally believed that at no
distant day he use Of iron rails in the
construction Of railroads VIII be abandon
ed, and steel ones adopted as q sutstitute.
Their superiority over iron rails in dura-
bilIty win 5ereadily admitted; while the
additional security to life and property
which they afford, cOmmends their gener-
al use 20 the consideration Of our Railroad
Managers. The intense severity of the
past winter demonstrated most clearly that
iron, even Of tke-bestm ctures cannot
Withstand exposure TO the elements. while
the test given steel proves that It can.
The original cost Of iron, At is well nova
is not so great as steel but when used for
railroad purposes, Is, in The end, far more
expensive, when it is remembered that a
rail Of steel, costing but little more than
double that Of iron, VIII last more than
ten times as long as an iron rail. We
lave been led TO these remarks on hearing
that the Erie Railway Company bad con-
traeted for immediate use, the enormous
quantity Of s, 700 tons Of steel rails, a por-
ton of which have arrived, the remainder
TO be delivered during this summer. Il
/ proposed by the Company 10 relay at
once such portions Of its Line as are sub
Jected TO the greatest service, but ultimate
ly to dispense with iron rails altogether
The wo-k of substituting steel rails has
already been vigorously commenced, and
the indications are that BY the return of
winter the work will be completed. and
the whole Line placed in the most
thorough condition, insEring safety, dis
patch, and the utmost regularity in the
running Of trains. Indeed, at this time.
the Erie Railway is, and has ever benin
as good condition as the average Of roads
in the country but when the work now
in progress is finished, but few Lines Of
Railway will compare with it-none excel
1t. We are glad 10 record the spirit Of
improvement manifested b ythis Company,
bene6tting as it does alike the community
and the managers and owners Of this great
property. sl

The Latest Veto.

The last veto message Of Andrew
johnson, returning the Electoral Bill
is a piece of trifing twaddle. 1t is not
novel, for it turns upon the old fallacy
that secession was unconstitutional.
consequently null and void, aud there
fore the States in rebellion have the
same rights as any other States under
the Constitution. The absurdity of as
suming that, because an act IS illegal
and unconstitutional, it cannot have
been actually committed, is plain
enough; but johnson has added to
this assumption the fragrant ineonsist-
ency of appointing Provisional Cover
nors for States which on his theory,
were already duly organized. He has
done this, not even through the forms
of law, but by Executive fat alone.

The Democratic Platform

The platform of the Democratic par
ty, says the Nation, is nearly as good as
the Republicans could have desired. 1t
gives up slavery and secession, though
this cannot be called anything very re
markable, considered as a concession.
1t demands the immediate restoration
Of the Southern States, which is not &
very dreadful requirement, as they are
all in but three, and these are coming.
1t calls for the payment of the United
States bonds in lawful money of the
United States, and for the taxetion of
the interest, as if it were not already
taxed: or, in other words, advocates
Reputation in the meanest of ways,
In relation to the tariff, the only thing
remarkable in the platform is that it
calls for incidental protecuon," which
is an open abandonment Of the old
Democratic position. The Sth resolu-
ton is entirely given up toabuse of the
Republicans, and ends in affirming the
right of the several states to regulate the
suffrage, as the Republican platform has
done. The only striking feature of the
whole, is the denunciation of the Re
COlslTuC1lOu aClS rs DEMONSTRATIONS
al and void" 1t would, altogeth-
er, have been difficult for the
party to take up a position more salts
factory to the Republicans. There IS
nothing left whatever, not a vestIge
even, of the old Democratic party in
the platform. 1t has not only declar-
ed once more against the wal and its
consequences, but has laid aside all the
old party principles. The only new
principle it produces to take their
place, is the right and duty of the ma
ton to cheat its creditors. If a party
can now be founded on this, or a es-
cape defeat on this, it will certainly be
a comical as well as tragical termina-
nation to the igreat struggle for the
Union.

votes as it passed both houses Of Con,
gress on Saturday, 18th inst, is a.
follows:

ANoVeI Way to Unite a Party.

We have seer a printed letter dated
July 4th, addressed TO Hon. Milton
Sutlif, of Warren, soliciting him to be-
come an independent Republican can
didate for Congress in this district in
opposition to Gen. Garfield. This let
ter has been circulated for signatures
in various parts of the District, but with
very poor success, as far as we can
learn. The signers object to Gen.
Garfield's financial views chiefly, the
letter states. They are in favor of an
initiation of the currency, Of the pay
ment of the bonds in gTeenbacks, and
of their taxation, principal as well as
interest. These m~alcontents were en-
tirely too hasty in their action. II
they had waited three days they would
have saved themselves a great deal of
! trouble, for on the 9th of July the
Democratic Convention agreed upon a
platform exactly to their mind, which
takes precisely the ground upon fnan-
cial questions set forth in their letter
to Judge Sutliff. The letter says:
1--WE mean no division of the Repub-
lican party on the other hand we wish
to unite it, by simply substituting your
name in heu of Mr.. Garfeld's. We be-
lieVe if you will allow US to use your
name it will strengthen the Republi-
can party in this District, for the reas-
on that there is a large minority who
will not vote for Mr.. Garfield under
any circumstances whatever, a part of
which would probably be induced to
abandon the party entirely if no other
candidate be upon the ticket"
The signers Of this letter viii, we
presume, feel themselves no longer
obliged to continue their efforts to
strengthen and unite the Republican
party in the remarkable way they pro
pose. Their views are so fully endors-
ed in the New York platform that they
will no doubt take refuge in the Demo
cratic party and there find rest for their
peturbed spirits. We trust they will
stand not upon the order of their 60
ing, but go at once" We can we'll
dispense with their aid, and we doubt
not we shall be able to strengthen
and unite" our party just as well with
out them.
Seriously, this movement in behalf
of Judge Sutliff, if it has not already
been abandoned, will have no strength
outside of a few dozen men who, from
personal motives mainly, are dissatis-
fed with the Congressional nomination.
There are such men in every district.
but elsewhere they usually haYe good
sense enough to keep their dissppoint-
ment and ill-humor to themselves and
yield gracefully to the decision of the
MISUNDERSTANDING Register.

Terrible storm in virginia
Respectfully yours,
D. Z. FULLER.

The Lynchburg Virgiaian says:
Tazewell and adjoining counties were
visited by q terrible storm a few days
ago. The hail IN some places laid two
or three feet deep on the ground. A
correspondent says: mot far from Mr..
Freemsn's, a water spout fell; a citizen
living in the ravine below the spout,
lost his wife and child in the most
shocking manner. She saw the terrible
tide rushing upon her house, she threw
the children upon a bed, ran after a
small boy outside, and as she entered
the door with the child, the tide enter
ed the upper floor with 3 large tree /;
this struck the woman with great force,
carrying her and the child away with
the logs and trees. There being two
houses, one giving way, turned the cur
rem of water, which saved the other
house and the other children, after
moving the house some two feet. The
Woman's body was found one mile be-
low her house, severed in twain-one
leg was not found. The child was s
perfect Jelly. 1t was found half a mile
from the house. Two COWS that were
swept off had not been found. Great
damage was done to the gardens, crops,
&c. The woods look like mid-winter.
