Lie On its Travels.

Same of the Radical papers of this
s,ots ar. publishing the following pre-
no.tsrous trash and declaring that il
.spttered by HENRY CLAY DEAN In
recent speech in New Hampshire;
"Could | do as wish, | would place
1.E Davis in Congress, where he Is
'vt;,Isd 20 be; then weuld proceed to
concord, your State Capital, take all
,bs mise rable battle-tiags from the

.rmed soldier; but l would in any
went pray to God to put them out oil
the way as soon rs possible"
II is scarcely necessary to say that
Mr. DEAN never made any such deolara,
ton. The story originated in the New
York Tribune, and full retraction of the
charge was subsequently, published by
that paper. We now stamp the accusa-
tjon as i lie, just as the Tribune admit
ted it to be false weeks ago, and will be
pl.as.d to see that our Radical cotempo-
rsres are rs willing to correct an error
as they have been swift TO commit one.

TragicRl TerrOrs

The public has been recently enter
tanned with some highly sensational
starts and shakes on the part OF the
"loyaltv" Of the country. FORNEY had
well-uigh fatal fright over an appre-
bruded raid of MosBT'S band into Wash
ipgton. Armed men had been seen
skulking mysteriously along the Poto-
mae Oh the Virginia side, and forthwith
N. double dailiness of 'my two papers"
was exercised and agitated with such
rragical trepidation as none but pupil
Of FORREST could enact. A few hours
Later it was ascertaiped that the mystic
riouS warriors were simply n party OF
darkhuRters, and the CONSERVATION of
FoRSEY, D. D., was explained upon the
tue theory that he deemed their sporting
Intentions to have personal reference,
which he could not contemplate with
satisfaction.
Pap" THOMAS, the TOparch of Ten
nessee, has also had his conscience dis
turbed by vision Of Judgment. He
vexrs the soul of GRANT with a nara
ton of his griefs which can scarcely
attlict "the man Oh horseback" less than
his own pap's twuddling in the Ledger.
Imagine how such a document as the
following, which was posted in the
streets of Memphis few nights since.
must have pestered the venerable

ton dwells upon skeletons and all
manner of dire death's-hcads, and his
peu is employed in giving them form

PhOuiOus apPellatiOn Of "Kuklux

General THOMAS credit for trying to get

Pursuant to notice the Democrat and
Conservative voters and citizens OF

the Court Hoass of said county, on Sat-
urday the 7th dag Of March, 1868. The

Obitaary.

If We have lost The election in New
Hampshire, another event has occarred
which is little consoling. The Radi-
Gals are in deep mourning on account of
the sudd' n and violent death Of 3 pro-
6able future President of the United
States, and while we cannot mingle our
tears with theirs, simply because we do
not feel this affecting dispensation ofDi-
Vine Providence as they do, we are dis
posed TO notice the death of the "rising
sun" of Radicalism, and in whom the fu-
ture prospects Of the Radicals were
largely centered.

60 Gorilla, recently imported by BarRum

and the Union Leagues throughout the

Lady physicians are gradually making
their way into favor, if we may judge
by their profits. 1t is reported that in
Philadelphia six lady physicians return
incomes ranging from $1,000 to $40, 900 a
year. In Orange, New Jersey, there is
another, whose annual income ranges
between $4,000 and $4,000. In New
York city there is ono whose income is
rarely less than 100000 n year. Some
of these lady physicians are successful
surgeons as we'll as capable medical
practitioners.

The Rev. DR.. Van Vechten, clergy
man of Albany, is regarded as a remark
able man. He had house for sale, and
entrusted the negotiations to an agent,
fixing the price at $1,000. The agent
sold it for $500, and the doctor refused
to receive the extra $500, and ordered it
to be returned to the purchaser Very
few people in this world transact bust
ness in this honorable way.
