PATCHINvILLE, Sept. |. Is

PATCHINvILLE, Sept l, 1868.
EDITOR Journal: The Republicans of
Burnside township assembled at Patchin-
vile, on Monday evening. August 3lst, as
per previous notice. The meeting was or
ganizei by electing Mr. d. Kline President,
and W. }. \ Igent Secretary.
I. II. Murray, Esq, was then called on
to address the people. His remarks We're
able and convincing, and were received with
marked attention by the entire audience.
After speaking for about one hour, he re-
tired from the stand amidst the shouts OF
go on, go on
The next speaker was J. II. Fulford. Esq.
whose happy hits elected frequent rounds
of applause His remarks were well timed
and to the point.
Capt G. w Curry, of Philadelphia, was
then called upon. His earnest. eloquent.
and forcible remarks carried conviction with
them, to the minds of all present.
The County Committee deserves great cred
it for having secured the services of such
gentlemanly and talented speakers. They
deal in facts alone. and present them in a
forcible, logical apl truthful manner, with
out that gascouade and bullying bIackguard
ism which too frequently characterizes poiit-
ical stump speaking.
In point of numbers, and of good order,
this meeting is believed to have been the
most respecta lie of the kind ever assemble d
in the township. At late hour the meet
ing adjourned amid enthusiastic cheers for
Grant and Coifax.
The Republicans of Burnside are wide a
wake and active and will do their whole duty
at the fall elections. Yours, W.

FROM THE PLAINs.-From letter in the
Cheyenne argus we CLEAN the following
items: The Easements are about trying a
new method of laying down the rails on the
U. P. R. R., by which it is believed the
progress of tracks laying will be greatly ac.
celerated. The ties are to be placed and
the rails laid down simultaneously Benton
is rapidly thinning in population, many leav.
ing daily for Green river. Water sells in
Benton for 81 rs per barrel Efforts have
been made to build a fort on the banks of
North Platte, to be named Fort Fred Steele,
but the efforts have not been very successful
so far. The soldiers are there to garrison
the fort, but the fort is not there to be garri>
sOned. Hay cutting was quite an object in
the neighborhood of Fort Saunders. The
article is $50 ton at Benton. The last
paragraph of the letter is as follows: The
air around Laramie and Fort Saunders is
thick with tales of robberies and ruffauism,
and some energetic steps will soon be taken
to suppress the epidemic of crime A large
and well organized band of robbers are be.
lieved to be operating in that neighborhood
A gang of about 20 men, with masks, lately
paraded the streets of Laramie, by night,
