T.. B. Ward, Esq, of Detroit, one of
the largest manufacturers Of the West,
has been claimed for Greeley and Brown.
In a letter to the Detroit Post he says:
There are in reality but two parties in
this country-the Republican and Demo-
cratic. 1t is true there is a class calling
themselves Liberal Republicans, who are
composed of the following elements: Men
who think their talents have not been fully
appreciated by the Republican party;
men who have been turned out of Office
because of their unftness; men who have
petty private grievances, mostly imagina-
~. suchas Sumner, Schurz, and our Blair /;
all the restless, uneasy people, who hope
that by some o~verturning of the parties
they may secure some political prize; all
the rebels. both North and South, who
believe the Ku Klux should govern
wherever they have the power; all who
believe the General Government should
pay the rebel debt, and pay for the eman-
cipated negroes of the Southern States;
and all who believe in free trade, low
wages, and poverty for the masses.
There is nothing in which Greeley be-
trays his utter want of principle more than
in the Tariff question. He says to the
Free Traders "Elect your Free Trade
Congressman, and 1 will coincide in their
acts. Elect me President, and. you may
pass such laws as you please" No mat
ter if his theory of national bankruptcy,
poverty stricken laborers, ruined manu-
facturers. aud universal ruin prevail. If
he can be President all this may occur, IL
Congress pleases. and he, the President,
must and will acquiesce.
He wants immediate specie payment.
Any early attempt at specie payment be-
fore such an event can be reached through
the natural course of trade will certainly
result in a more disastrous suspension than
any we have yet had.
MIR. Greeley is unstable. impracticable.
and unreliable. With him as President
business men and investors could place no
reliance on what his course would be. He
might advocate tariff one day, free trade
the next, and prohibition the third.
Values of all kinds of property would be-
come uncertain and luctuating.

EDITORS HERALD AND TRIBUNE,
Saturday evening last, as a storm cloud
bordered our eastern horizon, lightning
struck the barn of Mr.. William A. Dooly,
and in a few minutes his all of oats and
wheat were in a fame !; a driving wind set
in. while it seemed as if residence, stables
and all would be consumed.
Corn crops are gl%oriously good, and the
farmers are through with their hard work
and are enjoying themselves making cider,
drinking it, and talking politics-just a
little. This county has two young men,
well met, of the same political faith, of
the same religious creed, and each repre-
senting old and respectable families, can
didates for the Legislature. The cam
paign will be exciting. Sullivan rather
expects the Democratic nomination,
though they will vote for the nominee re-
CARELESS of anything; they are in fair
training, and as a general thing do parti-
san duty Inanfnlly. The Republicans are
for Pettibone, and some of the Democrats
too. HAL.

EDITORS HERALD AND TRIBUNE:
Truly glad are we that we are able to
state that the cause of education is revi.
wing in u good old county of Carter.
Already We begin to see the working Of
the influence of the able articles of Prof.
Presuell. in your valuable paper, r~eviving
and stimulating our people to a sense Of
the importance of the education of the
children of the land.
Dufield Academy in charge of Prof. j.
L. r. Boyd, and Prof. r. A. Smith, is q
fine A~ourishing school in the town o:
Elizabethton. Prof. Boyd, has been for
many years q successful teacher Of the
youth of our land, and Prof. Smith is a
young man of talent and ability.
While this is going on in town. Prof.
A. j. F. Hyder and d. Bowers have esta-
blished a fine school on the banks of our
own beautiful Watauga some four miles
above Elizabethton, may they meet with
the success which they deserve. We IN
derstand that another large school will
open soon at Chestnut Grove, FIVE miles
from Elizabothton. We wish all great
success in their laudable undertakings.
We believe that much of the improve
ments to be noticed is due to your truly
valuable paper, and would encourage our
people to subscribe literally and read,
and we have no fear but that Old Carter
will come out Of the dust and ashes of
the war and show us some of that talent
for which she was noted in the olden time.

A Terrible Fall.

The Chattanooga Herald contains the
following account efa frightful accident
which took place in-that city on Saturday
morning last, in which a horse and deliy.
cry wagon belonging to Mitchell & Stone.
grocers were precipitated over a bluff into
the river:
On Saturday morning the boy in charge
went down Spring street on his usual
rounds, but having in a new horse the
animal baked. He turned from Spring to
Second. Here the horse baked again.
The street at this point is very narrow.
there being just room enough for q vehi-
Gle to pass between an adjoining garden
fence and the bluff, which juts out 125
feet above the river below. The horse,
when he stopped, commenced backing.
and at once started the wagon down a steep
slope which precedes the final descent.
The weight of the wagon drew the horse
after it and both went headlong to the
bottom. The driver at first appeared
panic stricken and unconscious of his dan
ger, but, upon some one crying out to
him, reused up and leaped out in time to
escape q horrible death. After rolling
down the slope the horse and wagon had
a clear fall of seventy-6ve feet or more.
striking a bed of rocks at the bottom of
the river, which owing to the low stage of
the river were clear of water. The horse
was killed instantly and the wagon shat
tered to fragments, mixed in with water
melons, peaches, apples, -four and groceries
in general. The driver ran around to
the bottom of the bluff as soon as possible,
but found that the animal was dead, with
out ever having stirred from the place
where he had fallen.

Party q Ladies-The Fiend Ar
rested.

GREENSBORO, N. c., August II, 1872.
"A most foul attempt was made on the
evening of the Sd instant to poison al en-
tire party of ladies and gentlemen at the
residence of the Rev. p. HI. Fontaine,
principal of the Female Academy at Reids-
vile. 1t appears that a negro named
Jim johnson, whose wife was Mr.. Fon>
taine's nurse, struck the child of the latter
while engaged in a quarrel with his spouse.
This so enraged Mr.. Fontaine that he ad-
ministered johnson a sound thrashing. All
this happened some time since, and the
thrashing had been forgotten By every
body. On the evening IN question Mr..
Fontaine gave a party at the winding up
of his commencement exercises. and had
invited all the young people of IL neigh
borhood to partake of ice-cream and cake.
The older portion of the guests ate supper
first and retired. At this juncture Mrs.
Fontaine requested Jim johnson to re-
freeze the ice-cream, and it was then the
iend administered the poison. Over
twenty-six persons were next day seized
with violent commissions, pain of the head
and stomach, and other symptoms of poison.
and but for the prompt aid of DIR. JEFF
Scales, of Reidsville, who from the FIRST
discovered that the illness was the legiti-
mate effect of poison. and accordingly
made use of the proper a~ntidotes, would
probably have died. Several of the vic
Tins are now out of danger, but the lives
of quite a number are yet despaired of.
The 6end in human shape who attempt
ed this atrocious crime fed. but was to-
day arrested, being under an assumed
name, at Rufin's depot. He resisted the
officers of the law; and called loudly up
on his sable brethren to rescue him, which
they attempted, and but for the cool and
determined bravery of James Dalton,
who made the arrest, he would have escap-
ed the penalty which he so richly deserved.
His preliminary examination it now IN
progress before Justice Smith at Reids-
Vile. These are the circumstances rs far
as be learned.-Richmond Dispatch.

CHARLES SUMNER ~aatters himself that
the Democrats have undergone a complete
regeneration, thus:
The change Is the adopting of the Re
publican platform. which places equal
rights of all under the safeguard of ir-
resistible guaratees, and, at the same time,
accepting the nomination of a lifelong
AbolitioIist, who represents pre-eminently
the sentiment to the colored race. They
have set their corporate seal to the sacred
covenant.
On the other hand, the candidates
themselves tell a different story. Greeley
informs his Democratic supporters that
they are Just as much Democrats as over
thew. were, and he just as much Of . Re-
publican ; xhile Gratz Brown declares
that athe Republican party no longer
exists" Was there ever before such .
