The PROSPECTS IN New HAMPSHIRE
The New Hampshire correspondent of the
New York Tribune says:
"From careful observation, and CONVEX
sation with many prominent Democrats
throughout the State, can give it as my
opinion that not only will the Republicans
gain this year, but that from next Novem-
Der the election of General Grant by the
Union party will create a new and stronger
political organization throughout the State
than has existed here for many years. The
facilities enjoyed by the general committee
at Concord of hearing accurate and trust
worthy news from all sections of the State,
through the actively working Grant Clubs
in every school district, enables them to
almost count the votes Of both sides al
ready. Three Of The counties-Belknap,
Carroll, and Coos-will undoubtedly 60
Democratic, while Merrimack and Grafton
are SO evenly balanced as to be claimed by
both parties with equal confidence. Else
where the Republican majority equals,
and in some places exceeds, that of last
year."

YoRK.-A young man named Levants,
cashier Of Ezra Goodrich & Co., importers
of New York, is reported to have disap-
pcared with from one hundred to three
hundred thousand dollars. The Herald
says:
ait is alleged that the defaulter had en-
ioycd the confidence Of his employers to a
remarkable degree, and was from this cir
cumstance the more easily enabled to cover
up his defalcations and give everything an
appearance of correctness before he had
made up his mind to take his departure
Immediate steps were taken to ascertain
his Whereabouts, and the working up of the
case was entrusted to the detectives OF
police headquarters but so far they have
not been successful in their efforts to lay
lawful hands on the young man."
