WHEELING, w. VA, Aug. 2S.--Partial
returns reduce Jacobs majority to 1880,
and against the Constitution l20. It is
conceded the balance of the State will rati-
fy the Constitution, but cannot overcome
Jacobs majority. The proposition to pre-
vent the negroes from holding office is un-
doubtedly defeated.
WHEELING, w VA, August 29.-The In
tcUigencer has corrected reports from forty
six counties most of them official, which
give Gov. Jacobs a majority of 3,206. Re-
ports on the Constitution from forty-one
counties give majority Of 900 for ratifi-
cation. Eight counties are yet to be heard
from on the Governor and thirteen on the
Constitution. The InteUigencer estimates
this will reduce Jacobs majority to $500
and increase the majority for the Constitu-
| ton to 1000.

Duncan declared he had been offered hall
a million dollars by the Greeley party to

must have offered more and that he could
prove that Duncan had said that the whole

to be sold he would sell to the party that

RoGERsvILLE, August %, 1872.
While we rejoice at the success of our
Republican friends in the various States,
in uniting upon strong and able standered
bearers, there is no selection that is more
gratifying and encouraging than that fire
tried patriot, Judge r. II. Butler, as the
true Republican standered bearer for
Congress from the First Congressional
District.
The action of the true Republicans of
this good old Union and Whig District is
applauded by the true friends of the Gev-
ernment. 1t has sent thrill of joy into
the hearts of every man and woman who
were true friends to our glorious Union in
the dark days of treason and rebellion.
Since the nomination of VIM. B. Carter,
by the Democratic Rebel Convention of
this District, many of the Conservatives of
ferent and say if they take sides they will
go for Grant and Butler, while many of
them have came out openly in favor of
Grant and Butler. / could give you the
names of some Of the best Conservative
men in Hawkins county, who are for
Grant and Butler, but it is prudent to keep
quiet at the present. Ofone thing, howev-
er, you may rest assured: We intend to
carry this District for Grant and Butler by
5000 majority.
will venture to say further, that If ex-
President Johnson runs as an independent
candidate, for the State at large against
General Cheatham, the Republican major
ity in this District will be still greater.

GEN. CHEATHAM AFTER ANDY.
He Writes His Piece and POkes Andy Un-

The Nashville papers of Sunday contain
a card from Gen. Cheatham on the race
for Congress. He says the Convention
was regular and he proposes to stand as a
candidate. He says:
/ believe that to act well Is mora impor-
tant and beneficial than to speak well, and
! have endeavored throughout my life to
act well in whatever / engage.
have heard but two objections urged to
nv election first it is objected that have
been a soldier-a General officer. My coun-
trymen, is there any force in this objection I?
When / was a little boy my mother put in
my hands Weems' Life of Washington,
and taught me to believe that the charac-
ter of that great citizen-soldier was a
model for every American youth.
Fellow-citizens, if / had been one of
those quasi military men who took posi-
lion in the rear, and abused his power by
tyrannizing over helpless women and dis
armed citizens, the objection would be a
good one. But / made no war on the de-
Tfenseless / never disturbed their peace
nor wasted their property; no citizen can
raise his hand and say ever sought to OPP
press him, When borne down by over
whelming numbers, we were forced to sur.
render, and the war was ended, / accepted
the situation upon the honor of soldier,
and returned to the pursuits of peace. l
am now a farmer and nothing more.
The second and only other objection that
has been urged against me is that man is
wanted who in the language of the objec-
stors-can make Rome how'll Fellow
citizens, If Tennessee needs such man in
Congress, the objection is grave one, fol-

dollars this year and only 5000 or
5000 next, and perhaps nothing
at all for the one following, would
