AT URBANA.
The Great Camp-Mestlng at the National
Grounds.

URBANo, OHIO, August G.-The
national camp-meeting grounds at
this place were to-day crowded to
their utmost capacity. The attend
ance is VariOuslY estimated at from
fifteen to twenty thousand, chiefly
from the immediate vicinity, with
in a radius of twenty-five miles, al
though there are thousands here from
remote cities and towns, and numer-
Gus from adjoining States. There are
also representatives from many distant
points, and including fully tWO-thirds
of the States and Territories, the Brit
ism provinces, and even the United
Kingdom. The great canvass taber-
nacle was pretty full at the O'Clock
morning prayer-meeting, and at the
national love feast, held at 8 o'clock, it
was crowded to overlooking, while
thousands were unable to obtain even
standing room, and at the 10 o'clock
preaching services the congregation
was as large as could be possibly ac-
commodated. 1t filed both the
tabernacle and the vast interior
square of the camp ground. At the
same hour the Rev. John l.. Inskeed,
of Baltimore, preached in the church
from II ThessalOnianS, second chap
ter, 18th verse, and the Rev. G. A.
Vanander, of the Ohio conference,
preached in the tabernacle from Prov
erbs, chapter IA, 9Th verse. Services
were also extempOrized at several
points throughout the grounds, where
the crowds, who could not OBJ
tain places at the main SER
vices, were addressed by va
riOus speakers. This afternoon,
there was preaching at the taberna-
Gle by Rev. Mr.. Knowles, of Atlanta,
Ga, and in Church square by Rev.
w. Mcdonald, Of New York. In the |
evening, Rev. i. h. Dunn, of n. j.,
preached to another immense cOngre-
CATION in Church square. With the |
prayer meetings held in the intervals, /
there has hardly been an intermissiOn |
in the services up to 10 o'clock pm.
There have been no disturbances
whatever to-day, and not man has
been seen under the influence of
liquor.
The meeting will continue certainly
until Thursday, and should indica-
tions warrant, it may possibly be ex-
tended beyond that time.

in their right to vote without intimi-
dation. For this reason he believed
the reduction of the army to have
been a great mistake. Senator Brown
low said that the Republicans of East
Tennessee were as trustworthy and
as fixed in their principles as those of
Massachusetts or Iowa. They were
an independent class of men, most of
them farmers, who were devotedly
loyal during the war, most of them
suffering loss Of property, exile, and
great hardship for their attachment to
the Union. In Middle and West Ten
nessee it was different, he said. There
the condition Of society resembled
that in the States further South. The
land was owned in large tracts by
men who went with the rebellion,
and who were now bitter, proscriptive
Democrats. There were many poor
white men in those sections who
would be Republicans If they dared,
but they stood in awe Of these wealthy
planters. The prejudices in those
portions of the State against Northern
people, the Senator said, was still
strong, and was kept alive chiefly by
the women and The preachers. In
East Tennessee there was no such
feeling, and Northern immigrants
find a cordial welcome and are as safe
as they were at home.
Speaking of the prominent public
men in Tennessee, Senator Brown |
low mentioned Andrew Johnson,
whom he said he had not spoken to |
or seen in six years. Johnson, he |
"a ia WAS rastinp UDOn his laurplS nut Il
was still ambitious to return to pub |
lie life, and cOntrived to get himself |
called out on public occasions and in |
vited to speak at fairs and school COM |
mencements. He believed the ex-
President would be q candidate for |
Congress next year in the district |
where he lives, which is now repre-.
sented by Roderick r. Butler. John
son felt no great friendship for the |
Democratic party, which he thought |
had treated him with great ingrati. |
tude; but he would no doubt act with |
ii, as the only political organization |
open to him. He considered him to |
be very remarkable man, and said |
he had always been a strictly honest |
man, and for this was respected in
Tennessee by all his political enemies.
After an hours talk on topics which |
the above briefly sketches, I came |
away in company with gentleman
who had called to present the Senator
some punches Of early grapes, and
who told me that Mr.. BrOwnlOw had
lived for twenty years, as preacher,
editor, Governor, and Senator, in the |
house he now occupies.

INDIAN TERRITORY.
Excitement Over Election of Chief Justice
Colonel Downing Likely to be
Successful.

ST. LOUIS, August 6.-The ReDu6G.
can has special from Prairie City,
Cherokee Nation, Indian Territory,
which says that considerable excite.
ment is manifested there among the
Indians over the political contest for
Chief Judges, etc. Col. w. p. Ross,
nephew of JnO. Ross, and Col.
Downing are the opposing
candidates for Chief Justice.
Both were officers in the Federal
army. The same gentlemen were op-
posing candidates two years ago,
when the southern element of the Ma
ton, through its representative men,
made proposition to Congress for
division Of the appointive officers in
return for their support. This Colonel
Ross refused, but it was accepted by
Colonel Downing, who received the
entire support of that portion of the
Nation who had sided with the south,
and was elected. The same race is
being run over again. The election is
TO take place on Monday, the 7th inst,
when, no doubt, Colonel Downing,
who is full-blOod, will be again
elected.

CROSSE.
The Supposed Wife Murderer Arrested
He Denies the Crime.

LOUISVILLE, August 6,-The police
this evening captured DIR. Carl Crosse,
at the Indiana end OF the bridge, and
brought him to this city and lodged
him in Jail. Crosse is the man whose
wife died the other day under his
brutal treatment. Notwithstanding
it is pretty certain that he was the
cause of her death, the Coroner's jury
so declared, and it is feared the evil
dence will not be Of such that he can
be convicted. He had written to a
friend in this city to collect some
money and bring it to him at the end
of the bridge, which letter was given
to detective and led to his arrest.
He bitterly denies being the cause of
his wife's death, and says the reason
he ran away is that he was distracted
by her loss and did not know what
he was doing. A brother-in-law of
Mrs. Crosse arrived yesterday from
Chicago and has taken charge of her
remains and the two children, one not
two years old and the other about
two weeks,
