APATHErIc.-John Il. Mcconnell, shin
ing light in the Democratic camp, sent out
posters announcing that he would speak at
Rough and Ready, French Corral and San
Juan, Nevada county, last week. At the
first place fifteen persons responded to the
call ; at the second, twenty-seven individuals
were present, and at the latter place no one
attended. Mcconnell was present at each
place, according to announcement, but failed
to speak. He finally expressed disgust at
the want of enthusiasm among Democrats,
and left for more congenial section.

UNPOPULAR AT HoME-0ne of our citizens
has just received letter written by one of
the best posted men in Utica, N. Y, Sey-
lowing: When Seymour was first nomi-
mated his friends thought they would be able
to obtain a fewvotes from the Republican
party in Oneida county, but time has devel-
oped the fact that he will not be able to hold
the Democratic vote originally polled here.
He will be beaten 1000 votes in his own
county" From the changes going on in the
interior counties of New York, it is generally
believed that the Empire State will repudiate
Seymour and Blair by a majority of 10000.

QuicKsILvER.-Botsford & Iignbotham
have run a tunnel distance of eighty five
feet, for the purpose of tapping the shaft
sunk on their quicksilver ledge at South
Fork. The termination of the tunnel is
supposed to be directly under the shaft,
which will probably have to be sunk eight
or ten feet deeper to intersect the tunnel.
The indications are that this mine will soon
supply tho demand for quicksilver in this

General Grant and tho Bondholdsrs.
One of the most fatal signs Of his failure
was exhibited lately in $50 called political
meeting at Cooper Institute Hall. The
Messrs. Astor, VIM. B. and his son, John j.,
were there. So was A. T. Stewart, the inn
mensely wealthy dry goods merchant. Cor
nelius Vanderbilt, the great railroad capital
list, was supposed tobe there. And these
very wealthy bondhOlders nominated Grant
for President! The ridiculous aspect OF
this nomination is hard to portray. These
politically incapable gentlemen assuming TO
direct political action, could be equailed
only by set of most impecunious pohticlans
starting an insurance company on tine basis
of five millions capital, paid in. The Messrs.
Aston. and Commodore Vanderbilt, and Pc
ter Cooper, and the rest of this Grant,
Cooper Institute meeting, would not take
stock in the politicians insurance company.
Wide-awake politicians will not take stock
in the 6ondAolders' movement for Grant, at
the expense of ninety-nine out of each humid.
red of the people.
Grant has been killed as a presidential
candidate by the oficious action of these
very heavy bondholders. The people of
New York and the people of Pennsylvania
are not with the bondholding aristocracy.
Every state of the northwest is of one general
mind on this matter. Grant is going to be
the candidate of the rich bondholders. The
leading issue in the next presidential can
vass is to be the question of getting rid Of
onerous taxation, and of the ,par debt, as
its cause. Two ways are presented. The
first is to pay off all these in the declared
currency in which they were contracted.
That currency is greenback paper There
is another plan--and the only alternative
possible. 1t is reputation Of the entire
war debt, as not lawfully contracted We
can assure our black republican feiends that
they are in much danger from this idea. 1t
has very much of example to justify it. We
are in favor of the mitiqated plan. We are
for paying off the war debt in the same cur
rency in which it was contracted, at about the
same per centage on the value of gold
dollar.
