Some time ago, the New York Gi-tbn,ie printed
aletter written by Mr.. Greeley to the editor Of
the Lexington, ,(N1o.) Cdioasidn,in which Horace
sdd he guessed the Missouri man had better not
make him the Democratic candidate for Presi-
don't, but suggested the names OF Cox, ,Trumbull,
and Gratz Brown, as available for the purpose,
and expressed the opinion that it was great
fAstake in the Democracy MOTTO have nominated
Chase, in 1868. In this connection, it is quite
interesting tonotethe character of Mr. Greeley 3
crony, to whom he writes these kind letters Of
advice, showing how The Democratic Party may
better aim at success, and we find the following
description Of tho Caucasian in an exchange
paper.
THE notices at II head read State Sovereign
ty! White Supremacy aud Reputation . This lis
Liberty Its platform is further printed in black
letters, as a standing advertisement The Con-
htitution of 1860, and the Rights Of the States !!
This IL a White Mans Government, made by
White Men, for White Men, and their Posterity
Forever. Down with the Fifteenth Redamned-
mentl Total liquidation Of the Monstrous
Yankee War Debt That Accursed, Unconstitu-
iional War Burden, accumulated by an Unconsti-
tutional Mob styling itself Congress, in the
prosecution of an Unconstitutional Crusade, for
the Accomplishment Of All Unconstitutional and
Ilorrid Purpose The editorial articles of the
Caucasian have fiery character and are no
doubt intended to make peoples hair stand on
end. II calls the President beast, bird vegetable
and mineral and writes his name Mister Hiram
H. grant.
If Horace Greeley is still sound of mind, this
Is curious friend he possesses, but il his oree
vigorous brain is actually softened, certainl nc
companions were ever more fitly joined.

The Smyrna Times, of the 17th, says:
Tho commissioners appointed to assess the
valuation of the Whartenby lands at Clayton,
completed their labors last Thursday and all the
parties Hgped. the agreement but two. The
agreement reads thus
In the matter of the agreement between Jas.
$. Harris Attorney in fact, of James Whartenby
of California, and -, Of the town Of Clay
ton; Delaware
The undersigned, in accordance with the agree
meIt Of the above named parties, have duly ex-
amined and appraised the Real Estate now held
by the said-----, and situated in the town of
Clayton aforesaid, (formerly the estate of James
Tibbe,t, decd) find and hereby certify the yalue
OF the said Real Estate to be-dollars, exclu.
siye Of the buildings thereon erected.
Witness our hand this 23d day of Dec, 1871.
JOHN MUsTARD

The names of the property holders and the
amounts assessed are as follows --.-e

Tighman Foxwell S1575; James Z. Latto-
mus 5000; d. G.. Stevenson, 5000; s, j. Gar
man, 5000. Total amount-$2.175.
Patrick Mcguire, the largest property holder
in the town, and Enoch Spruance, who owns
some town property, and several acres Of the
land outside the town, did not sign the agree
ment TO abide and pay the valuation to be made
/ by the Commissioners and although the Com
| missioners did value theirs, it was not made pub
lie. 1t is understood that these two gentlemen
have until Saturday, the 20th inst, to accept o.
reject the terms upon which the other holder
settled. Parties making their own time to pa.
these amounts, by giving approved security, anC
| ten per cent. is abated for the cash.
The most Objectionable feature of this agree
ment. to our mind, -, that, although the fina
decision as to the title of the Tibbett propert,
by the Supreme Court in the case of Jamel
Whartenby os. Bailey q Daniel, may be adverse
to Whartenby yet he (Whartenby) says thes
men will be held strictly to their agreement Il
pay.
Although there was some loud talk by the pro
perty holders, and great many cuss-words le
fly when the award Of the Commissioners wa
made public,yet they will probably all call at tn
Captains Office and settle.

road is completed on % 900 acres Of land tn each
mile of track; they bear interest at the rate of B.

ment for the Companys land at the latter's lowest
cash price. The proceeds Of all sales Of lands are
reaured to be devoted to the purchase and cancel
latlon of tae First Mortgage Bonds Of the Compa-
ny. The Land Grant Of the Road, exceeding Fifty
Million Acres, constitutes an Immense Sinking Fund
which will probably cancel the principal of the
Company's bonded debt before it falls due.
U. s. 6-2Os, Delaware State bonds, Wilmington
City Loan and all other marketable Stocks and Bonds
will be received at their highest current price in
change for Northern Pacific 7-sOs.
