GENERAL SPINNER was not admitted
at the great banking house OF the
Rothschilds in London, recently. with
that promptness and familiarity with
which he has been in the habit OF en-
tering his neighbors' bureaus in the
Treasury Department in Washington
and consequently the irritable and i'm
petuous old man flew into a passion and
left the bankers ante.room for his lodg-
ipgs As soon as the Rothschilds
learned that the Treasurer Of the United
States had been waiting they promptly
sent him an apology. to which, says the
report, General Spinner "contented him
self with returning message that they
did not treat dogs that way in America. "
The General is right, and all the dogs in
America will bear him witness, but
General Spinner knows that they do
treat men so in the United States, and
in the Treasury Department, and all
the other departments; and especially
are the American people compelled to
sit for whole days in the ante-room OF
their chief agent in the White House,
with grievances to which he refuses TO
listen, because he is engaged, iorsooth,
with some horse race or horse races,
with some Santo Domingo jobber or
custom-house contractor, orsome Indian
agent smuggler.

A TRAGIC exemplifcation OF how I'M

beginnings was given recently in the
small town of Bayou Sara, in Louisiana
A shoemaker OF that place, for some

owners yard. lie was called to account
FOR this by one Of the lady's friends, and
in a shooting match that ensuet

From Roane County.

SPENCER, RoANE, Co., June 20.
Editors Of the Register:
1t may be interesting to some Of the
readers Of your paper, to hear from our
county occasionally. The farmers are
busy harvesting at this time. The
wheat crops will prove favorable yield,
| think more than an average crop. 1t
has been remarkably dry the forepart OF
the season. Grass and oats will be
short. There has been but little agita-
ton in the political horizon since the
great Democratic victory last fall.
Until lately there appears to be no stir
on the Convention question. Most OF
the Democrats and Conservatives are
in favor of a Constitutional Convention.
Some think that it will only add to the
ponderous load of taxation, (Which is a
Radical hobby.) They forget that the
Democratic party has always ruled with
strict economy and with view to the
welfare and prosperity Of the whole
country. We think it would be impos-
sible to select men from the Democratic
party who would have so little respect
for the perpetuation of the party and
the interest of the State as not to favor
the reduction of taxation. Give them
fair trial before suspecting them OF
corruption and extravaganza. Because
we have had the most corrupt and
extravagant government in the ANIMALS
of history, under Radical usurpation,
is it not a lesson whereby the Demo
cratic party may profit.
A system CT good laws is imperative
ly demanded by the oppressed citizens
of our State, and no one can consistent,
ly oppose it. Then give us a Conven-
tion-the only legal way to sweep from
the statutes of the State a system OF
corruption practiced on the people for
the last ten years Elect honest, good
men to the convention, and the predlc-
ton is, we will save by reduction oil
taxes in few years Cat the present rate
of taxation) money to build line OF
railroads that will add to the convent
ence and.wealth of our State. Com.
pare taxation now and when we lived
under the Old Dominion. The cry was
then, we were building their railroads
and making Improvements for the east.
At the same time we had appropriations
for turnpike roads, with all our liber-
atty, squandering our money on east
ern railroads, &c. Yet we did not pay
half the taxes then we do now, while
our roads, most of them made and kept
up by the State, are now reduced TO
county roads and kept up by the people.
The capitol donated to the State, no
public improvements, and taxation
without limitation. Is there not some,
thing wrong? Can it not be righted by
a Convention We think so. II the
Convention will not no their duty, then
it is time to distrust all parties. Fl.

ELECTIONS in Spain are conducted in
about the same manner the Radicals
expect TO conduct elections in this coun-
try, under the Ku,Klux bill. Previous
to the late elections in Spain, in some
localities, the Republican candidates
were arrested and kept locked up in
Jail until the voting was over. In Cadiz
out Of seventeen or eighteen thousand
voters, only FIVE thousand were register
ed and allowed to vote. In a single
ward OF Madrid two hundred and ninety
out Of four hundred soldiers who voted
were under age; and when bystanders
at the polls protested, they were told
either to hold their tongues or 60 to
Jail. Where the election of members
to the Cortes was contested, the Minis
terial candidates were admitted to their
seats in all cases.

TAKEN as a whole, the crops Of this
country will reach a full average this
year. There is no question that the
wheat crop OF the west will be equal to,
if not greater, this year, than ever
before known. All other cereals are in
like promising condition, and the yield
will be correspondingly large. In Vir-
ginia, Kentucky and Tennessee, where
large quantities Of wheat are raised, the
harvest has already commenced, and
will be nearly over by the 4th of July.
The corn crop looks well, but it is too
soon to judge as to the ultimate yield
in different sections Of the country.
The late rains have benefited this crop
amazingly. Potatoes will do well, if
they escape the attacks Of the greedy
bug, which has ,nade its appearance in
some quarters.

Now that it is certain that we will

district. While we have many gentle

to name a candidate for this county, ]

ting to the voters of Ba, bonr county
the name Of Captain Thomas A. Brad

well qualified to represent the county in
the proposed Convention. Lair D. Mar
rail-, the old Democratic war-horse Of
Barbour, has been spoken Of in this
connection, but | understand actually
refuses to permit his name to be used
in that connection. Captain Bradford
without DOUBT is the choice Of our
people. The Radical cry of too much
expense has no terror for the people

that there was as much money and
time spent by the State and Federal
Government in DISTINGUISHING American
citizens in Barbour county as the Con-

A WESTERN journal, in summing up
the business outlook, from every stand
point, says: Trade of all kinds will
revive-cost Of production in manufac
lures will decline, except perhaps in
cotton and wooden goods-and though
prices will also decline as a necessary
sequence, yet consumption will be In
creased in an inverse ratio. The profit
per cent. will be greater, and, under the
increased consumption, will be greater
absolutely. Consequently, all classes
in the community may look forward
with confidence, but not recklessly, to .
season Of active business at reasonable
compensation"

The Cincinnati Enquirer declaresthat
the action of the late Radical Conven-
ton Of Ohio is equivalent to an open
reputation Of General GRANT, and yet
the aggregate of the salaries OF the
Federal Office holders, delegates to the
Convention. are estimated at about
81 100000 annually! If that amount
would not purchase an endorsement Of
General GRANT, his case must be des-
perate, indeed.

The Chairman Of the State Dem
ocratic Executive Committee ia in
receipt OF recent letters from
every section Of the State. all Of
which speak encouragingly of the pro-
gress OF the Convention canvass. The
letters from the Third District all concur
in placing the majority for the Conven-
ton at not less than 5000, while some
place the figure much higher. A letter
from about the best informed, and most
active and efficient worker east of the
mountains, says that more than two
votes will be cast for the Convention 10
one against it, in that section. In the
State, it is only question Of majority.
