10 he Editor ofthe State Journal:
Yesterday July the 10TH being court
day. there was very large attendance of
the people at this place. i.ga5
The Liberal Republican-C Conservative
Democratic Good Lord, deliver us y party
assembled about 2 of the clock, in the base
nent room of the courthouse to have
grand Greeley and Brown ratification meet
ing. Curious, and little anxious to see
and hear how those 'mad spirits and
white, blue spirits in gray would receive
and ratlfy the nominations at Baltimore,
| went with the crowd-and cen became
.schel amang them taking notes, and faith
yell prent 'em.
AS soon as the chairman had taken his
seat, it became manifest there was small
unpleasantness on hand in the form OF
fuss in the happy family. A tall Confede-
rate Colonel who was noted for his cool de-
liberate courage in the war, offered a reso-
luton undoing, or rather proposing to do
over again, all that handful of before
breakfast gentlemen had done at the pre-
ceding (June) court, IN appointing delegates
to the Congressional nominating convention
to be held at Franklin courthouse, and
urging upon the meeting the propriety and
necessity of adopting the course re-
commended by their Executive Committee
to wit: A county convention OF delegates
from said township. This brought up
another tall gentleman not noted Tor
cool deliberate courage in the war, but rather
for "wiieing in and wirelng out, and leaving
the matter still in doubtw whether the snake
that made the track was going No'M or
comingsback," and soon the gallant Conted.,
altho' he had the right, was driven to the
wall by sheer force OF numbers-neverthe-
less, the fun grew fast, and promised to
become furious, When under full head of
steam, in comes the Norfolk and great
western, Colonel Flournoy, and now, we
thought for division and were not mistaken.
He held UP before the audience, first
Greeley's old white hat, then Grecley's
old white coat. then Gratz Browns red
head-and there was not one response,
then the Norfolk and Great Western
switched off-on the tyrant Grant (eeble
applause)-th upon the horrible ku-Alux
laws-then upon the carpet-baggers and the
scallawags, about one-fourth OF the crowd
applauding, and the most prominent and
nolsest applauder saw, was man who
had but recently returned from the Albany
penitentiary, where he had served a term
of Imprisonment for violation OF the la WIS
of the United States. mo thief Tor his
friends) e'er felt the halter draw, with
good opinion of the law.o Now things began
to look serious, when Greeley and Browns
white coat, hat, and red heads abuse of a
hated tyrant, and the still more hated car
-baggers and scallawags, and that too
by Colonel Flournoy, when all this cannot
arouse even shadow of enthusiasm, some
thing else must be tried--and it lodS tried.

g CONGREGATIONS

That the lands of Virginia are now in the
peaceful possession of many of the EXON
federate owners is no fault of Horace Gree
ley's. That they were not wrested from
them and apportioned out to the soldiers of
the conquering Union armies, is due to a
mere liberal and tnagnanimous spirit than
his. The following is from the New York
Tribune.
a'sWe hold traitors responsible for the
work upon which they have precipitated us.
and we warn them that they must abide the
full penalty, The rebels of
that State (Virginia) and Maryland may not
hatter themselves that they can enter upon
war against the government and afterward
return to quiet and peaceful homes. They
choose to play the part of traitors, and
they must suffer the penalty. The worn
cut race of emasculated first families must
give place to sturdier people, whose pio-
neers are now on their way to Washington,
at this moment, in regiments. An allot-
ment of land in Virginia would be a fitting
reward TO the brave fellows who have gone
to fight their country's battles. '--Editoria
