Wisconsin,

The Tribune calls us to task for claim
ing that the electoral vote of Wiscon
SIN will be given for Seymour and Blair.
If the Tribune will take the trouble to
analyze tine vote of that State for the
last three years, it will be found that
the Democratic vote has been gradually
increasing and the Radical vote falling
off. The Radical, or Lincoln's, majori-
ty, in 1864, of 1874 was, in 1865, cut
down to 10000, and that reduced, in
1867, to AGA, and that, too, in poll OF
a larger vote than in 1864, and thirty
six thousand more than in 1865. The
gain necessary to carry that State this
year is far less than obtained last year.
But the Tribune asserts that the vote OF
that State will reach $1,000 this year.
If this is the case, so much the better
for the Democracy. The increase
will come from the young men just
reaching maturity aud the natural
lied vote. Both Of these classes are
now with the Democracy. For n young
man to cast his vote for the Radical
party is to record it against his own
prosperity and advancement in the fu.
ture. The policy which the Radicals
have pursued has placed almost an eff
fsctsal barrier against young men, un'
less they are wealthy, in procuring
means to stsIt themselves in business
The success of the Radicals this year
will increase their difficulty. No elias:
of persons realize this truth more fully
than the young men of the country
Hence we find them now, and will be
fore the campaign is over to q greater
extent, casting their political fortunes
with the Democratic party, the party
which is to restore prosperity to The
country and open the way for the ad
vancement Of its young men. Wiscon
sin We believe to be safe for Seymour
aud Blair Uorid.

TUCKER COUNTY, July 8, 1865.
Editor of the Register:
SIR seBd this to you to give your
numerous readers some idea of af-
fairs in our county. During the month
of June the weather was exceedingly
dry and the air cool from the east and
northeast, which has damaged the oats
and hay to q great extent. Since July
has set in there has been rain daily.
On the 9TH the mercury rose to 81 de-
grees Fahrenheit, and on the 9Th we
had the most terrific rain aud hail storm
that has been known for many years ia
in this vicinity. 1t came from the south
and its course was nOrthward. During
the space of an hour it seemed as though
all the artillery Of heaven was in array
ball fell for half an hour, ending with
against the earth; hail the size Ofan ounce
q dreadful storm of wind, prostrating
trees, fences. &c, destroying grain as it
went, and cutting the growing corn to
strings. The breadth of the hail storm
was one mile and half. Up to the
present date we have had the greatest
amount of lightning and thunder that
was probably ever known i'll the space
of few days. There was an intense
degree of heat all the time, the clouds
coming from the South.
Yours truly, j. l.. NJ. Z.

them. At length, however, she was
discovered alive and we'll in n swamp
under the guardianship of q bear. She
was uuiniured, except by few marks
of the bears teeth, uniutentienally
made when she was carried of, though
her clothes were almost torn Oft. Her
story was that the bear took her by the
clothes and carried her off to it's den,
and then treated her as cub, hngging
her in its arms, and rubbing his nose
and head against her and purring like
cat. The supposition is, that she

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Mr. Pendieton's speech nt Grafton,
West virginia.

In our special telegram columns this
morning, will be found the speech of
Hon. George H. Pendleton, delivered
yesterday at the State Convention of
tho West Virginia Democracy at Graf
ton. Knowing the extraordinary inter-
est that is felt in this speech in all parts
of the Union, and especially in the
West, we had it telegraphed in full for
the Enquirer. 1t is the keynote to the
campaign. 1t is worthy of Mr.. Pendle-
tons great reputation, and will increase
the strong hold which he already has
upon the Democracy of country. There
is in it no feeling of disappoint-
ment or resentment ut his
failure to be made the can
didate of the New York
Convention. On the contrary, he
indorses its action, including both plat
form and nominees, with warm cordial.
ity. This effort of Mr.. Pendleton is the
oponing of the contest for Mr.. Seymour
In the west, ana 10 will ha prosecuted
henceforward with more than the usual
Democratic vigor and energy. If there
are any among the people who have
been inclined to be lukewarm, in
consequence of Mr.. Pendleton's defeat,
this blast of the Democratic bugle
which he has blown will recall them to
their duty. The whole strength Of the
organization, and of all outside conserv-
ative men, following Mr.. PeudietOn's
noble example, will he given to the New
York nominees.
OF the merits of the speech we ell
not speak. There is no finer, no more
effective political orator in the United
States. His speeches are models of log
ical strength and literary elegance. lie
has discussed the general political ques-
tions in his best and happiest manner.
Especially has he presented the iinan-
cial aspect of affairs with extraordinary
force and power. He stands square on
the National Union platform, and gives
it that form and Interpretation which
truly belongs to it, and upon which we
shall win glorious victory.
This speech will appear in the REG
ISTEE of Monday.

The following curious sight is record
ed by the Harrisburg State Guard OF
Monday: Yesterday n curious and unu.
sual sight was witnessed in the Susque'
haana canal. From early morn until
nightfall dead fish, turtles, frogs, and
eels were floating down and the water
changed to a beautiful green, and be.
came so clear that the bottom could be
seen without difficulty. 1t has been es,
timated that twenty or thirty thousand
fish must have fioated down during the
day. The real cause of this wholesale
slaughter is as yet unknown. Some as
sert that it was caused by the sinking oi
a canal beat loaded with lime; Others
that q Sulphur spring above Clark's
Ferry suddenly burst yesterday morn

affected by coal oil refuse from rein

The other names upon the ticket are

| The other names upon the ticket are
all. to a greater or less extent, familiar
TO the people. DIR. MAYER, of Kama
wha, our candidate for Auditor, is g
German by birth, and the first of that
nativity yet placed upon State ticket
in West Virginia. His high business
qualifications and unimpeachable char
acter render his selection an admirable
one.
Messrs. WILEY, of Mouongalia, G.
j. WALKER, of Jackson, and YANTIs, OF
Jefferson, are gentleman Of unbounaed
popularity in their respective sections,
and admirably suited TO gil the stations
for which they have been named. The
Electors are nearly all too well known
to need extended remark, while all OF
them lave been selected with judicious
reference to fitness and ability for the
places in connection with which they
are proposed.
Two candidates for Congress have
been nominated. The third nomination
will be made in Charleston on the 22d.
Hon. WILLIAM G. Brown, the candidate
from the Second District, is one of the
ablest and most popular men in the
State. Having large legislative expe-
rience, added to natural gifts Of the first
order, and being lawyer of the first rank,
bis friends were warm in urging him
for the first place upon the State ticket
but it is belieSed that his election to Con-
gress will enable him to render to the
State services of the highest order, and
at the same time honor him as he de-
serves to be honored by the people of
West Virginia. Concerning the nomi-
nee from the First District, we presume
it is hardly expected that this sketch
will speak.
Taken rs a whole, We believe the
ticket gives universal satisfaction. 1t
can be elected with work, and We are
satisfied the people are ready to do the
work.

IL is admitted on all sides that the
Great Convention at Grafton on Thurs
day was the most imposing political
demonstration ever witnessed In West
Virginia. The Cincinnati Enquirer es-
Inmates the crowd in attendance ut III,
uUU, and, according to the opinion OF
those best able to judge, the estimate is
not above the mark.
When We consider the circumstances
uud.r which the Convention was held,
rLe pre,once of so large number OF
people upon this occasion is certainly
SIGNIFICANT. In the midst Of the farm
er's busiest season, under the most III
tense heat, through the dust anu smoke
of travel by rail, and over weary miles
of rough mountain roads, the citizens OF
Vest Virginia gathered by thousands
TO attest their deep interest in the COM
ing struggle, and to proclaim their pur-
pose to adhere henceforth to the party
of Unier and equal rights, of which the
name Democracy is the exponent.
We do not claim that this was strict
ly Il party gathering. We kaow that 1t
was IN assemblage of the people, with
ont reference to past party differences,
10 deliberate aud take counsel together
concerning the momentous issues now
weighing so heavily upon them. Their
conclusion was unanimous. 1t was to
reject hcncrforth the false guides and
dogmas which, under the name OF
Union and loyalty" have been betray-
ing the popular trust, aud to adhere
hereafter to the party which having
made the Republic, still gives assurance
of ability to preserve it, the old fash
ioned, straight. out Democracy of the
country.
The Grafton Convention was held in
Il region of country heretofore extreme
ly Radical in its views. With the
meeting OF that Convention, the reign
of Radicalism in that section ends.
Multitudes in attendance from the con-
tguous counties of Harrison, Marion,
Monongalia, Preston and Barbour, have
until now trained in the Radical camp.
The pressure of the evils wkich their
own party has brought upon them sent
them to Grafton on Thursday; they
have found the remedy and they will
apply it.
Thursdays demonstration opened the
campaign in our State. If we may in
fer anything from what it developed,
there is no room to doubt the redemp-
tion of West Virginia at the coming
election.
