James T. Moore, Commissioner in Equity 70

James T. Moore, Commissioner in Equity for
Greenvile District, has been suspended from Office
by General Candy, ON the complaint of party,
that he was about to violatea regulation in regard
to the sale of mortgagcd lands. MIR. Moore and
others were quite taken by surprise, as noshing
has been farther from his intention than TO do any
act in conflict with the commands of General Can
by or other power and authority. 1t is simply a
misunderstanding and We presume that he will
soon be restored to place he has filled ofaithu-
ty and satisfactorily hitherto.

THE LATEST EDITION OF WEBsTERs UNABRIDGED
DlcrIoSARy.-The first appearance of Webster's
great Dictionary in 1925 made an epoch in Eng
lish lexicography. This We believe, was fully felt
and acknowle lodged, not only in this country, but
in England also. In preparing for the p' esent re-
vision the attention of both editor and the publish
ers was first directed TO the eymology. In 1854
arrangements were made with Dr.. C. a. F. Mahn,
of Berlin, Prussia, to undertake the task. de vas
employed several years upon the work, and has
performed it in manner worthy of his high rep
u;alon. The revision of Webser's definitions is
another capital feature, which, TO those unearncd
in the languages, will be still more interesting.
We see not how any gentleman library can make
decent professions to completeness without this

Strange if True.

As man was walking in his garden he
discovered two clothes horses. He took
them in his stable, where he soon broke
them. He then put the yolk Of an egg on
their necks, attached them to a cart with
the bonds of friendship, and covered them
with sheet-lightning to protect them from
che flies. He then leaPed into the cart, sat
upon the seat of government, took the whip
of top in one hand and the reigns of sew
eral kings in the other, and drove of, pass

cart was broken to pieces against the rock
of cradle. By industry and frugality he
soon gained the shore, where he formed a
boat of the bark of prairie wolf which he fit
ted with masGmade of north pole, and two
auction sales. He then sailed down the
river to its mouth, and landed upon

Military Interference.

In his letter Of the 28th ult., the Washing
ton correspondent of the Cincinnati Ga
zette says:
1.-The troops will not be Withdrawn from
Arkansas, or any other restored State, at
present. The troops will, as in Tennessee,
aid the civil authorities, but will not unless
called upon by the Governor. It is the hope
of Gen. Grant that the people themselves
will take such course as will justify very
little interference by the military. No or
ders have been issued to the commanders
of other States, and none will be given Iill

Houses"

The negro is now supreme every where
in the South. The race, by a system of
treachery, has got possession of Washing
ton city, the Capitol of the United States,
and they win no doubt rule it as they
please. The history of the late election for
Mayor, according to an intelligent cores
pondent, is this:
The Radicals admit that the Democrats
had majority of the votes pollsd but
there were forty soldiers stationed at Wash
iBgton who voted the Democratic ticket
On these votes being thrown OUT the Rad
ieals have the majority. Judge Carter, the
corrupt Radical Judge of Washington City,
decided that the soldiers had legal right
to vote, and to get clear of the difficulty he
requested Gen. Grant to issue a.. order that
no soldier should leave his barracks on
election day. Grant refused to do SO be-
cause it will not be long before he will want
the votes of the soldiers himself The ne
grOes poured in from Virginia and Mary
land to vote in the Mayors election. They
still failed to carry it until the votes of the
soldiers were thrown out. So it has been
settled in Washington City, which is i'm
mediately under the government of Con

dier, no boy in blue, can. So we go. Hur-
