1t was represented by the Grant
ties in North Carolina that there was
to be a special term of the United
States Court in hat State, beginning
some time in July, to try persons
under indictment for Ku klux dep
relations. On this representation
the United States Marshal drew from
the treasury at Washington, the sum
of two hundred and sixty thousand
dollars to pay the expenses of a term
of Court. 1t now transpires that the
term of Court will not be held till
Fall, and that this money was used
for campaign purposes. 1t was said
by Grant that North Carolina must
be carried at all hazards, and this IS
one of the little tricks by which they
expected to make the election sure
for them.

The rapid growth of New York
city has, naturally enough, had a
most remarkable effect upon the
price of real estate, A lot on the
southwest corner of Broadway and
Fourteenth street which, in 1912,
sold for IS. 109, is now leased at a
ground rent of So, 900 per year, and
a lot at the junction of Broadway and
Sixth avenue, which changed hands
for 5000 during the war, is now
valued at $50, 900. In 1850 the
ground on which the ST. German
Hotel is standing was worth S45, 900,
and is to-day worth at least a quarter
of o million of dollars. When we
consider these figures we can under
stand how the Trinity Church cor
poration, from holding what was at
the outset a very ordinary church
property, nov reckons its wealth at
nearly seventy millions.

Intense as New England is in her
feelings, and bigoted and sectional
as many of her people are, such mo-
tives will not prevail with those who
read or think, or who believe patriot
ism higher than party. In New
Hampshire and Connecticut, which
are close States, can be seen daily
very many who voted for General
Grant who will now support Mr..
Greeley, and this is also true of
Maine and Rhode Island, Vermont
and Massachusetts,; but there is al
most an equal chance now that the
two former States will vote for Gree
ley. If not very many of the old
politicians change front, many of
the people, whose votes count, do
not change, and if here and there a
Bourbon Democrat intends not to
vote at all or to vote for Grant,
everywhere you can put your finger
upon Republicans who Will vote for
Grant or not vote at all. What
Democrats lose in New England in
the way of change they will gain ten
times over.

FROM SALT LAKE.

The following letter, from Salt Lake,
was written by a reliable gentleman,
we'll known i'll this State, to a friend
in this city, has been kindly furnished
US for publication:
SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. IL, 1872.
DEAR SIR: Surprising that conflict
ing reports are received about Carson
concerning the condition of our old
friend and fellow-citiZen, Governor j.
Nicely Johnson, L deemed that a few
lines from me would be welcome,
even though it gave sad news concern
ing hun. l have been here about a
month myself confined to my room
by an accident. The Governor had
been feeling remarkably we'll up
to the day of his prostration, July 26th,
on which day he was attacked and
| proStratred with sunStroke. He had
on the previous day, Thursday, been
around the city, during the hottest
part of the day, with some tourist
friends from the East, showing them
points and subjects of interest, which
he could not do without extreme eX-
posture to the sun. Since the third
day of his attack he has been most of
the time unconscious, his mind wand
ering from one subject to another in,
sometimes, a violently delirious man
ner. His friends have not considered
him in much danger until during the
past few days, and now he seems to be
almost beyond hope of recovery.
This morning he was rational for few
moments, but relapsed again into an
unconscious state, during which times
he speaks and talks of his family and
many old friends, expressing great
desire to see each and all of them. l
do not think it possible for him to re-
cover, yet there is, of course, still
hope, and all that can be done is be-
ing done for his comfort and cure.
He has many old California and Ne
vada friends around him, who do all
they can.
The cheated term" here has been a
terrible one and very many cases of
sunstroke have occurred and a num-
Der of deaths from It. l never expert
enced such close, not and burning up
weather, but the air here is different
from hat of California or Nevada,
where we can much better stand a
heat of ITO degrees than we can stand
80 degrees here.
VII JulN 1utH, 1 L was SoiiS ~

stepped upon an old, rusty iron rake.
running IL of the tires into my right
foot about three inches and into the
joint of the ankle. l went on to
Ophir where l laid up a few days and,
surprising 1 was well, came into the
city to get through with my business
and return home. but by using 1t too
much, together with the heat, l pro
duced an Inflammation in it and came
near having a bad dose of lockjaw.
Thanks to a good physician. though,
l am all right now and will
start west.
Business is duller here this Sum-
mer than we had a right to expect,
and money hard to get hold of, al
though the mines are doing well and
mills and furnaces turning out con
siderable bullion.
Hoping to pay you a visit in Car
son before many weeks, give all my
old friends my kindest regards, with
many for yourself. Belief me, as ever,
Very truly, yours.

The instigators of ''strikes" are in
a fair way of becoming better known
to the public. A recent movement
IN New York city throws light on
this point. 1t seems that the mar
RED men who have families to sup
port by their labor, have issued a
call for the organization of an asso-
cation to protect themselves against
the strikers of the young men who
belong to the Unions. As a body
these young men are said to be the
poorest workmen at their trades;
they care but little whether they
have work, being comparatively in
dependent, but the elder men have
families to be provided for from day
to day.-lAlpine Miner.

The Phoebe Record says of the
Condor mine.
"The south drift is now in 20 feet,
and shows 2H feet of good milling
ore in face. A new drift, running
north, was started from the bottom
of the main shaft during the past
week, and at present writing the
ledge shows fully 3 feet in width,
half of it beng free milling ore."

ten or fifteen manageable young

the matter. Several of these bach

General Grant is still on his trav-

Summer frolic, utterly regardless OF
the public interest, and seemingly
unconscious of the angry tide that is
fast sweeping him to destruction.
