The Hon. 8. @. Taber, of Elmira, pub.
fishes his letter Of withdrawal from the
Grant Republican State Committee, in
the Elmira Gazette, and prefaccs it with
an address TO the Republicans of Che.
mung, Steuben and Allegheny Counties,
giving his reasons for wishing to support
Mr.. Greeley. He rejoices in common
with other genuine Republicans that an
opportunity is afforded them of testi-
flying their love for their principles and
their country by voting for Horace Gree
ley for President"
Mr.. John Bright, in his speech accept
ing the testimonial from the Stafford
shire delegation on Wednesday, the first
of any political significance that he has
uttered for moro than two years, referred
to the House of Lords in no very com.
plimentary terms. Abiding to its con
duct on the ballot bill, he remarked that
it seemed to be almost the last refuge Of
the Gladstone Government towards Rus
sia, and expressed the belief that all diff
fioulties between England and the
United States were at at end.
DEATH OF REV. PAUL TRApMR, D. D.
Over tho wires yesterday, flashed the
melancholy intelligence Of the death. at
Baltimore, Of one among the oldest and
best beloved of our clergy, Paul Trapier.
A life protraoted to near three score and
ten. and spent throughout in preaching,
alike by its own daily beauty and its
faithful utterapoes, the ''unsearchable
riches of Christ" is now laid down, but
the fraits OF that life live in many hearts.
Charleston Courier.
SNUBBED. Gen. Sherman is snobbish
enough to complain that he was snubbed
by General Won Moltke and Prince
Frederick Charles. Doubtless he was
treated as well as he deserved. Our
military parvenues CAD about too much,
and forget that such exploits as the
burning of Columbia are not likely to
commend them to the love and RESPECT
Of the men who never make war upon
women and children.-CA Charleston NeDs.
A vote was taken of the thirty. seven

A HIGH OLD CONFLICT OF AUTHORITY.
The developments in the case of County
Commissioner Mclaughlin are becoming
interesting, and further proceedings are
expected in it to-day. The quarrel is a
very pretty one as it stands, and the
history of the case, up to the present
moment, is as follows: Mclaughlin hav.
ing in his possession certain County
checks. was ordered by Judge Lee to
produce them; this he refused to 10,
whereupon the Judge issued an order
requiring him to show cause OH Wednes-
day last why he should not be attached
for contempt of court in refusing to
obey the order. Anticipating that Judge
Lee would send him to Jail, Mclaughlin
applied to Judge Graham to issue O writ
Of prohibition restraining Judge Lee
from issuing such an order and the she.
riff from executing it. The writ was
issued, and Thursday next fixed for
hearing the return.
Judge Lee, however, disregarded the
writ. and ordered Mclaughlin to Jail on
last Wednesday afternoon, which order
was enforced by the sheriff. The next
morning, on application. Judge Graham
issued writ of habeds corpus and Nc
Laughlin was released. Judge Lee,
however, Immediately issued another
order of commitment, which the sheriff
again executed. Application having
once more been made to Judge Graham
to issue another writ of habeaS corpus,
he refused to issue it, on the ground that
the sheriff stood ready to Disregard his
writ Of prohibition second time. He
then telegraphed to Attorney General
Chamberlain to come Immediately to
Charleston and settle the matter, hold
ing that the Attorney General was the
proper arbiter in the case. and alleging
that he did not wish to create any further
conflict Of authority.
Mr.. Chamberlain arrived in the city
yesterday afternoon, and the matter
will be brought to his attention this
morning.
Chief Justice Moses also arrived yes.
terday afternoon, and will hear a motion
this morning for an order restraining
Judge Graham from any further inter-
ference in the case. The motion will be
made by Solicitor Whipper.
Meantime the hapless Commissioner
remains in Jail. Charleston Ne,oS, 15M.

Therefore, in the coming election let

have been scourged. banished, or MUIR
