Horse Thieves.

The Mobcrly Monitor tells of a
supposed gang Of horse thieves in
Randolph. county that have had their
plans disarranged by the confession
of one of their number recently. \
horse was stolen near Cairo, in that
county, and young mar named VIM.
Bates was arrested for it. who was
induced to tell all he knew about it.
The inducemcnt was the usual one in
such cases-thc choice OF liberty or
hanging. He denied IL completely
in the theft, but accused q man
named Brown lIinch, near Rcnick,
of making %Ovcrtures to him for steal
ing the horse in question. Ilinch
was also arrested, aud at first denied
any knowledge of the matter, ut on
being brought face to face with
Bates, his defiant spirit left him, and
lie made q full confession of his guilt.
Hinch stated that their organization
had its qualifications throughout
every part of the State, and they had
recently been driving a prosperous
business. From Ilincli, the names of
other parties in Randolph and adjoin-
ing counties, who he claims are mcin-
bcrs Of the league, were obtained,
and several Of these have already
been taken into. custody--among
them-Dr. Cross, ear Rcnick, who,
llinch says, swore him into the gang.

Cen. John q. Clark, Jr.

This gentleman was nominated for
Congress i'll the llth district nj Car
rollton on Thursday last, by 4 two
thirds majority of the Convention.
BY reference to the proceedings of
the Convention it will be seen that
the two-thirds rule was agreed TO be-
fore the work of nominating began.
With regard to this feature of the
Convention we feel disposed to say
nothing harsh or unjust. The rule.
however, is not usually enforced in
Congressional Conventions: only IN
or two exceptional instance, occur
ring in the history of this State. In
this case the whole canvass had been
conducted with reference to the bare
majority rule, and Gen. Cnlrk having
succeeded in obtaining the support
of q majority of the delegates from
the district. fair play would seem I"
have demanded his nomination. As
It was, all the other candidates coin
bined against him. and as ON of his
instructed friends were not real
friends, they were enabled to throw
him off the track in this indirect
manner. Although defeated in their
main object, Gen. Clark's friends
still held the balance of power, and
successfully foiled every effort of the
coalition to run i'll any Of their
'"small fry candidates. The weak
candidates combination held togeth-
er very well until the slst ballot,
when q sufficient number drew of to
give John u. CLARK, Jr., the requisite
majority.
The nominee i she eldest son of
General John Ii. Clark, and is
about forty years of ag:. He gradu-
ated at Harvard College with distinc-
ton. He studied law, and is regard
cd as ali able member of the profess
sion. He served with distinction in
the Confederate army in the capac-
ity of Brigadicr-Gcneral. At the
close of the war he returned to his
home in Howard county, and was
engaged for some time in editing the
the Howard County Advertiser, in
which occupation he distinguished
himself as a vigorous and graceful
writer. At the primary election in
Howard county a short while since
he received the nomination for the
Office of Sheriff and Collector by nine
hundred majority, showing his nm
bounded popularity at home.
Gen. Clark is a man of fine mental
culture, brave, honest, true and i'll
corruptibic, and with not n stain Of
.reproach clinging to his private OF
public life. Free from all narrow
war prcjudices and fully in sympa-
thy with the present Liberal Reform
movement, a good speaker aud pos
sessing the charm Of rare personal
address, lac is no doubt the strongest
man that could have been chosen in
the district. We heartily endorse
the language OF Gen. Shields in his
ratification, speech that u o better
nomination could have been made by
the CONT ention.'

Remarkable Speech.

In an other column wegive in full
a little speech made by Horace Gree
lev A. Pisssbury; ON the evening of
the 18th, IN response to . serenade,
which ought 10 be read by every
man, woman and child ia the country.
1t is one of The most significant utter
anccs of the campaign. Pittsburg
has been built up by its manufacto-
ries, and its manufactures have been
tostered by the tariff of which Gree
lev has been by far the ablest and
most persistent advocate. He con-
<.guently seemed to fsel that he had
such claims upon its people as justi-
fed him in addressing them in the
warmest language of exposiu!ation
aud entrcaty. How finely he takes
oil the ciap-trap military parade
gotten up . few days before in the
interest of Grant, and how s%eathingIv
he drn0unces the whole scheme rs
designed solely to " rekindle the bit
:erness and hatred, the luminosity
and antipathicS. the fears and excita-
tons nf civil war. for the advantage
ola political party" But the most
noteworthy thing in the speech is its
noble ~vimlicaiiom Of The motives ami
conduct of the people al The South
since the close of the war. They
talk he SAYS, about rebels and
traitors" Fellow citizens, are We
never To be done with this? We
demanded of Il aiversayics that
they surrender their arSAs and go
