HENRY MOTLEY has sold out his grocery

charge Of the institution. George is 4 real
artist-can tie up pound of sugar or roll up

The Presbyterian Church, and Tontngany and
Weston churches, have secured the services Of
Rev. Mr. VANCE for the coming year. From
what we hear about him he is the right man this
time, living in the bounds Of his work, aud not
afraid to go among the people, and it is thought
he may build up the church here, which has
not been in a very fiOurishng condition for some
time past. judging from the size Of the congre-

A quiet death on the Senate table, says an
exchange, is evidently the fate Of the bill 70 abol
ish the frapking pivnsge. Almost the only
measure Of popular interest which the House has
passed this session will thus be killed in the
dark for the reason that Senator's fear to do the
deed in open day. Too tenacious Of their Official
psrouisitea and too Indifferent 70 the wishes Of
the people, COpgressmen will suffer this to go
the way Of the other reforms Of the civil service
the tariff and ths reveaas, for which the country
is waiting, through postpouement ard shufHng
and interminsbls adjustments Of interests.
There 10 nothing in the circumstances to preven'
. speedy enactment Of this measure, except the
dislike Of Senators to give mp Q ceslly and
mueh-abused privilege but BY refusing to act
upon IL they will give color to the insinuation
that its hastY passage through the House was
secured BY the knowledge that il wo uld be
smothsrsd in the Senate.

A WAR SPECULATION.

A double-leaded article leading off the
Avalanche of this morning has the most
unaccountable failure TO recognize the
purport Of the latest dispatches which
certainly is to the effect that France is
beginning to recover from the stagger-
ing effects of the first blow, the immense
force of which was unexpected, and
Prussia naturally appears weakened not
withstanding the appliance of her i'm
mense resources. Our neighbor totally
ignores the dispatch that gives open
communication between Mcmahon and
Bazaine. If the sweep of armies could
be made as easily as the sweep of the
pen, our neighbor would be invaluable
as commander. He says
As soon as McMahon's movements
clearly evinced his purpose to be, to
give up Paris and to relieve Bazaine, the
German forces instantly halted, faced to
the right and moved to the north, sweep
ing the country from Chalons to Metz,
cutting off the French armies from
Paris.
The latest news does not corroborate
the Avalanche's confident double-leaded
speculation.

County politics.

To the Editor Of the Ledger:
/ have been astonished at the pertna-
cious efforts made by parties (who they
are presume is known to the papers
through which they illuminate their dia-
tribes to produce disaffection, confusion
and trouble in the Democratic ranks.
No sooner is one difficulty removed, and
general harmony produced, before they
suggest another, and the hive is all astir
again. One Of these pestiferous insects
is out in the Appeal this morning, reit-
Grating the exploded charge that the
country is very much dissatisfied with
the delegation appointed by the late
mass meeting to represent Shelby coun-
ty in the Senatorial Convention Of the
sth inst, and suggests that the time be
extended to the 10th, that the wards and
districts may appoint their delegates.
The time will not be extended, and there
is no necessity for other delegates to be
appointed The same authority which
appointed the Gubernatorial and Con-
gressional appointed the Senatorial and
Floaterial delegations. That authority
was the people, in mass meeting assem-
bled. AT the convention of Tuesday
last, when the subject of unequal repre-
sentation between city and country was
brought up. Captain l. E. Douglass elo-
quently and Distinctly contradicted the
assertion-said he had been over much
Of the county aud heard no objection
until he came into the city, and that was
raised by sore-head citizens themselves.
The fact is that everything appeared to
be moving smoothly, until several candi-
dates or those having axes to grind,
came here from Haywood, Upton and
Fayette, who, having manipulated their
own counties, would like to have hand
in lingering Shelby. 1t was through
their orbs that the great injustice was
discovered and un,airness suggested
The impression, TOO, has been created
