What New York Bankers say Of the Mob.

Mr.. II. III. Watson, one of the best known
members of the Stock Exchange, said
Politics are at the bottom ofthe whole mat
ter. | don't give Hoffman any credit for
issuing his proclamation he saw he had
made mistake, and took water. Well, If
he does injure the Ring don't care"
Scarcely had Mr.. Watson said this, when
the reporter heard Mr.. John BENJAMIN,
another of the oldest members, say to a
crowd that stood around him: "This is the
lamest thing ever saw of Hoffman's. It's
all humbug of him to pretend not TO have
known anything before.n
Mr.. Wheelock, the Vice President ofthe
stock Exchange, said: Kelso isn't blame.
He was ordered by the mayor, and / sup
pose he did rs he was ordered to do. The
Tammanny Ring is Mt the bottom of
this intamy. You know they are depen-
dent on the Irish vote.r Not only at the
Stock Exchange, but all over Wall and
Broad streets, intense indignation was ex-
pressed.
Mr.. Rufus Hatch, the National banker
told n reporter of the Sun, in accents Of
great excitement: 81 am Democrat, but /
say If this city is to be given over to set of
drunken Irish rioters, it's about time to
stop it. Why, it's just as IL this set of
drunken Irish roughs ran the country it
beats the worst religious outrage of the

ELIzABETHToN, Tenn, July IA, 1871.
EDITORS CHRONICLE; Carter county
presents well-todo appearance lust at
this time. The meadows are covered with
luXuriant lot of grass, the barns are full
of new mown clover. Large stacks of wheat
and oats are to be seen upon every farm
and the corn crop bids fair to be the best
that has been in the county for ten years.
Wednesday night we were visited with the
heaviest fall of rain of the season, but no
damage was done of importance, so far as
have learned. Gentle showers of rain
have fell almost weekly throughout the
spring and summer and the autumn of
seventy-one provinces are of plenty, The
upper crop, to n very great extent, is
almost a failure, not only in this county,
but in all upper East Tennessee. Peaches
will be abundant in the upper countiest
and the berry crop that has of late years
proved quite source of income to the
poor, is beyond question the largest
ever known in the country.
Berries will be dried by the hundred
bushels. Around every cabin door scat
folds, basket-lids and table linens may be
seen covered with berries-the mode of
drying and preparing them for market.
Old fields that were covered with briars
and worthless growth before the war are
now valuable simply for the berries they
yield
There has been more sickness this season
in Carter and Sullivan counties than ever
before in the same length of time. Not
many deaths are reported, in fact very few;
but every family has had sickness, and very
frequently every member ola family would
be ailing at once.
Circuit Court has been in session and as
q consequence the town has been full of
people, and among the number n large
number of the legal fraternity.
Hon. II. II. Butler has been with us this
week. He looks well, and speaks encour-
agingly of Republican prospects.
Mr.. 5. p. Angel and lady, of your city,
are with their friends of this place for a
few weeks, to enjoy the mountain breeze.
Carter is n delightful spot in summer.
While you at Knoxville are sweltering at
go in the shade, we are famed by the
gentle breeze at about 500 HENRY.

The following extract from the journal
of young lady In Virginia who, In l7I2,
visited the Lees and Washingtonso on the Po-
tomac, gives a different idea of the father Of
his Country from that which has been
generally entertained:
~ must tell you our frolic after we went
to our room. We took it into our heads to
want TO eat. Well, we had large dish OF
bacon and beef; after that a bowl of sage
cream and after that an apple pie. While
we were eating the apple pie In bed-God
bless you making great noise-in came
Mr.. Washington, dressed in Hannah's
short gown and petticoat, and seized and
kissed me twenty times, in spite OF all the
resistance / could make, and then cousin
Molly. Hannah soon followed, dressed in
his coat. They joined Us in eating the APP
pie pie, and then went out. After this we
took it into our heads to want to eat oys-
tiers. We got up, put on our wrappers,
and went down into the cellar to get them.
Do you think Mr.. Washington did not fol-
low us and scare us just to death? We
went up, though, and eat our oysters. We
slept in the old lady's room, too, and she
sat laughing tit to Kill herself at US. (Won.

Mr.. Higginson writes to the Tribune as
follows about Professor Porter's address
and Bret Harte's poem at Harvard: AS
to the Phi Beta Grafton and poem, the one
was, as usual, charged with possessing too
much of specific gravity" and the other
with a shade too much of what Edmund
Quincy used to call specific levity," for
the occasion. The personal impression
made by Mr.. Harte was, as it always is,
that OF manly, modest and unspoiled per-
son; and this is a matter of far more i'm
portance than to know whether he gave
us his best or only his second-best poem.ii

Young, charged with cruelty to his ward,

years old, named Wasley Glenn. The
child was presented to the court and ex-

monster has been in the habit of torturing
young Glenn by degrees, and it was clear
