I'm our own district public opinion
seems to be settling down upon Gen.
Averill, present incumbent, as tho man
whom it is eminently proper to keep
right where he is. We have convers-
I'd with prominent citizens from dif-
ferent portions Of the district during q
few weeks past, and have been unable
to learn Of any opposition to his re-
nomination. The feeling prevails that
he has been an untlring and efficient
worker for the best interests of his con-
stituency, and that he richly deserves
the compliment Of renominatian, if he
desires it.-Litchfeld Ledger.

crops 10 Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin,
and much ether damage is reported,

POLlTICAL ITEMS.

The New YORK Christ;an Union
asks: "What are Wa to gain by new
party-made up In haste, without COM
mon principles, jumbled together, not
to correct grave public evils, but to
avango private griefs, or to reward
violent and irregular ambition? 2"
One by ono Republican papers
tn at went in for Greeley are getting
sick of their bargain. Perhaps the
Springfield Republican still believes
in the editorial candidate ; but it con-
fesses that $50 far as present appear
ance 60, the prospect for a change Of
tenants At the White House next
March can hardly be described as en-
oouraging."
Greeley has certainly not taken
we'll in New England. The Boston
Traveller says: at is not known
that single active Republican Of Mas
sachusetts, outside Of the delegation
to Cincinnati, now supports the nomin-
alton Of Greeley for President. No
political movement ever fell so dead in
Massachusetts as tho one which cul.
minated in Cincinnati. It would be
impossible to make up a Greeley cleo
toral ticket outside of Il e Democratic
party"

The Commissioner of General Land
Office says the reason for not issuing
instructions to local Land Officers CON-
corning the Soldiers Homestead Law,
has been because of the diversity of

it supports the Liberal ticket:
''There can be nothing more certain than
that this Liberal movement is essentially

1t seems almost certain that EN-
peror William Of Germany is gradually
sinking into his grave. His physi-
clans have from time to time latterly
pronounced him "indisposed but re-
covering" but it now appears that his
strength is steadily falling, and that he
himself fears approaching dissolution.
He still persists in taking active exer-
else, and hunts and fishes as of old,
spending half his tins in the open air.
Tho physicians have forbidden him this
pastime, but he laughs them to scorn.
It would not be very singular if tho old
monarch should die in the saddle.

The Chattanooga Herald reports de-
.plorable condition of affairs in Dade coun-
ty, Georgia. The following from that pa
paper of yesterday gives the latest intelli-
gence from the scene of trouble:
The regular train on the Alabama and
Chattanooga road went out Wednesday
morning at seven and half o clock. Moth
ing of an unusual character occurred until
the train had passed short distance bey-
ond Trenton, when bridge was discovered
partially burned. This was soon repaired
and the train passed through to Alfalfa
without further hindrance. sac, -,
The evening mail train from Alfalfa was
not so fortunate. When it arrived at Tren-
ton, about two o'clock in the afternoon, it
was selzed upon by the Dade county mob,
ana detained. The train, with the United
states mails, was still in their possession
at our latest report. 1t is probable that no
train will go out on the road TODAY,
Vigorous steps will at once be take to
apprehend the offending parties and bring
| them to justice. When a mob, acting
under the real or pretendeded authority o.
State Governor, can at will seize upor
the mails of the country and appropriate o.
detain them indefinitely, all attempt al
