of Andersonville. In one word, they
can be found comprising the men
who fought for the Union, and the
men who sustained the army at
home.
Looking over the supporters OF
Grant at the political gatherings to-
day, we can almost borrow the words
of the Prophet, and say with him
"These are the faces that I saw un.
der God at the river Shebar; and
these faces are likenesses of the
same faces that l saw at the river,
and they went, every one of them,
straight forward" And these are the
men with whom Mr. Schurz propos-
es to fill the gulf. Despicable at
tempt! Impotent effort! Insulting
words Can he believe the Ameri-
can people are cravens and In
CRATES? Does he hope to cancel the
record in all our hearts by blotting it
out of HE own Let him behold the
uprising of the people all over the
land. Let him hear the laundering
answer that comes from Maine, Yer
mont, and North Carolina. Honor,
patriotism, gratitude, are not quite
obliterated. "There's lite in the old
land yet. ~ Chicago Inter- Ocean.

etc., We have the following from St
Louis, relative to the feeling between
the Liberals and Democrats of that
State E. w. Tilman, Chairman Of
the Liberal Republican State Central
Committee, has addressed circular
to the members of the Committee,
setting forth that in many counties
and districts of the State, the Demo
Gratis are acting independent of the
Liberals, in making nominations,
ignoring the latter, especially in
places where they think they are
strong enough to succeed without
them. Tilman advises the Liberals
in such localities to recognize the
Democrats as enemies to be defeat
ed, even though the success of the
Republican ticket should be the re-
suit. Mr.. T. states that if these
views do not accord with those of
the Committee, and they desire it,
his resignation liz at the disposal of
the Committee.

FILLING THE CHASM,

We did not hear from Mr.. Schurz
at the Peace Jubilee in Louisville.
1t was hardly important that he
should go anyway, for he has long
since clasped hands with rebellion
in spirit, and to 60 through the
empty form would be a mockery
hardly worth a sacrifice of $3.50 a
day. Mr.. Schurz, in his speech de-
livered at Chicago, proposed to fill
the "bloody chasm" with "Grant
men," McCreery, with whom he was

Sheriff Melton, brought into town
yesterday a. M, negro, arrested
for committing rape on woman
and child, between Stanwood and
Mechanicsville. He first attempted
a rape on a child, about twelve
years of age, the daughter of Widow
Worrail, and having injured her Sc
riously, went to the house of Mrs.
Wilson, whom he found out doors,
and seized her and attempted the
outrage upon her person in the
struggle which ensued, she received
considerable injury. After severe
struggle he ordered her into the
house and tn ere succeeded in accom-
plishing his hellish design. He was
found during the next day, in corn
field, and the presence of the Deputy
Sheriff prevented the lynching of the
fiend. He is in Jail, where he will a.
wait the action of the Grand Jury
in November. The State never
ought to be put to the expense OF
conducting the trial for such brute.
