We learn from the GAINESVILLE Tobac-
co. Leaf that Laura Furnace, in Robertson
county, has been sold to Messrs. Forsyth
and PriDgle, Of Cambria county, Pa, who
intend putting it in blast at once. The
furnace had an excellent reputation for
fine quality of its iron, but has boon out
of blast since the war.

A man name Mcclellan was arrested last

fugitive from justice for thirteen months.
He jumped his bond of eight thousand
dollars in New York over a year ago, and

ever since. The New York detectives
seized on him yesterday and had him con-
veyed TO the Overton Hotel last night.
He was to leave on the three o'clock train
this morning for New York.

Political Talk in Washington.

Timon, of the Richmond Dispatch,
says on Saturday, writing at Washington:
The evidences of future political devel-
opmCnts that can legitimately be drawn
from the results Of tho Indiana COnven.
ton have produced a new sensation among
Radical circles in this city. The extra
Jealous men actually begin now to hest
tate in their bold assertions thatthe Dem.
ocrsts who will meet at Baltimore will
never consent to nominate or endorse Mr..
Greeley. From past riGicnlc of the idea
they have Swerved to u feeling of surprise ,
and wonder if the Democracy will nomi-
nate the Cincinnati ticket. There ARE a
dozen old Radical politicians hero who
! ha We constantly insisted that the Baltimore
Convention will repudiate that ticket
! without hesitation, but within the past
two days their convictions are becoming
changed. The signs from the West are
not pleasant for them to contemplate, and
the reports from Pennsylvania do not
grow better ns the GuQnt cOuricrs bring
them in. The hasty departure OF the
President, aud the admitted failure Of our
treaty negotiations almost at the same
time, have not been facts to reinspire the
leaders with any new hope of success.
W thin the first few days some Of the
sanguine out generally admitted good
observers of political skies have set down
for Greeley, in the event of his nomination
at Baltimore now ccrtain,) the State Of
New York, Missouri, Indiana, Pennsylva-
mia, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Rhode
Island, Delaware, and New Jersey, and
all the Southern States excepting, perhaps,
South Carolina and Mississippi. and in.
Guiding Kentucky and Maryland. The
betting poIiticians-and this place affords
a nest for several of that ilk-fnd no TAX
ers to the offer that he will be nominated
at Baltimore. Taking all things into con-
sideration-good, bad, and indiferent-it
cannot be cOntradicted that the upward
movement of Greeley stock has almost
paralyzcd the opposition sentiments Of
those gentlemen, who, in their attempt.
to persuade the Democracy that he is not
the fit person for their nomination, had
almost concluded that their suggestions
were having weight in the party.

The editor of the Radical sheet ofthis
city, writing from Washington, admits
that without the electoral vote Of Penn
slyyania, Grant will probably be defeat
ed, and then gravely assures his open
mouthed readers that the Keystone
State sis regarded as one of the surest
States for Grant in November and fol
Hartranf in October"
But in contradiction of this statement,
Forney's PreSs--n Grant organ, and the
leading Republican paper Of Pennsylya-
nia--publishes a statement showing,t thai
In twenty-seven counties OF that State
Bucknlew,D Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor, will gain nor than 1000 over
tho ordinary poll. This is, therefore
~conceding his election three months in
advance. Now, il Bucknlew should car.
ny the State in October by 10000, what
to hinder Grant being swamped in No
v.mber? And as Pennsylvania liz som
OF the surest States for Grant, in No
vember," the "man on horseback" is il
a fair way to be badly beaten,--PreS
and Herald.

The Fourth of JnlY.

To-day is the fobrtb ofJuly. "ln olden
times it was the great day of the year,
and was looked forward to with much
more interest by the growh up people,
than Christmas was by the children. 1t
was a national day then, a sectional day
now. From the granite hills OF New
England TO the steady flowing Bio
Grapde; from the tropical Florida to the
ice bound North, spread eagle addresses
were made, full OF patriotism, full Of
glowing pictures, Of the greatness Of our
~forefathers, and how they licked John
Bull for his o~ficiousness on the tea
question, and fuller Of the greater great
ness Of the American people Of the pres
ent generation. With the tip Of one
wing resting Oh the Atlantic and the
other on the Pacific, tie great American
Eagle, who had looked The British Lion
square in the face, until he had qusiled
and covered in the dust, would bring a
scream that made the American people
shout and go wild with Joy, while the
nations Ct the earth would look OH in
mntc admiration and establishment and
hide their heads with fear and rambling
1t wds a grand old day when the people
from the Ngod patriarch, to the young
mother with her frst-born on her lap
would go to the appointed place Of meet
ing; the old to have his love Of countr,
revived, the Young to have it instilled il
its heart. The beating Of drums, tn.
shrill blast of the fife, too people on foo
and mounted in procession, tho firm;
OF cannon, the time honorcd barbecue
the wild huzzas Of the people annual.
made our people feel that they adoreo
their country, the greatest of earth
domain.
But the scene has changed; a fnmil
quarrel, u hatricidal strife has caused al
irreconcilOhle split in the family Of States
The old traditions and customs of on
forefathers arc but little respected; III
North for plumber, power and oppres
sion OF the South, has almost discarded
them, while our people feel they have n,
interest in them or tie miserable farce
called government, which instead Of nj
fording US protection, is seeking b.
every possible means to degrade us. Tn

Radical Rule in Arkansas.

The following letter from Randolph
%cbunty, Arkansas, to Col. Ethan Allen,
Chairman Of the National Liberal Re-
publican Committee, gives a vivid de-
scription OF the tyranny which rules
Arkansas. The story is a familiar II
to Tennessoeans, and II happy and
prosperous condition is in striking con-
trast with the days Of Radical mlsrule
Arkansas will be free after March 4th,
1873:
DEAR COLONEL: Let me call your atten-
ton TO the election machinery Of Arkan-
sas. Her laws, since reconstruction,
make the Governor the State. He can
set any registration aside after having
been made. He can refuse to accept the
result OF the election in any county where
the judges Of election appointed by him
self declare that in their belief it was
fraudulent. His registers are response
bic to no tribunal save himself for wrong
doing. These registers appoint the
Judges and clerks Of election, the Gov
error appoints al county judges, and
they district couhties rs they please,
His registers can act OF not, as suits
them; that is, they wholly refuse to reg
lister n county, they register at discre,
ton, refusing whom they please. Is q
citizen aggrioved, he has the gracious
privilege Of appealing to the Supreme
Court Of the State, which holds two SEES.
sions u year at the seat Of government
where his case might be reached il
t%wenty-one years. After tue register
rolls are taken the registers can private
ly and without notice strike any nam
from it they choose, and there are non,
to modest them or make them afraid. /
they would only ~disiranchise those tina
the law, as it shows on its face, intended
to be DISTINGUISHED, the State would still
give Greeley and Brown $4,000 majority

Under a recent law passed by the
Legislature of Now York, Governor
Hoffman has appointed Commissioners
to propose amendments to the Consti-
triton OF that State. Sixteen of these
Commissioners arc Democrats and six
teen Republicaus--the latter having
been suggested to the Governor by the
Republican Senators from tho several
judicial districts. This arrangement in
sures the exclusion Of craftsmanship from
their work, and renders it probable that
the result will be acceptable to the next
Legislature, whatever party is in power.
If the Legislature approve Of tho pro-
posed amendments, they will then be
submitted to tue people for final action.
