DlsrREssING SUlcIDE-A letter from Mari
boro', Md, to the Washington Star, dated Feb
ruary - says John H. Hardesty, esq, the
proprietor Of the Marlboro House. committed
suicide about 10 o clock this morning, by blow
ing ON his brains with small pocket pistol
He had Just walked out from the hotel when
the report of the pistol was heard, and parties
frou the street seeing him fall, rushed to his
side, and found him breathing his last. lie
had placed the muzz'e OF the pistol to his head
lust behind the right ear, wh.re the ball en-
tered, coming out above rhe left eye and shat
tering his entire skull. He bled protilsey and
expired almost instantly. Mr.. Hardesty was a
gentleman Of most exemplary habits. He had
moved to Marlboro from the vicinity Of Piscat-
away. a few years ago, where he had previous
ly been planter in good circumstances. He
exchanged his plantation there for the MARI
boro' House, but had found the investment
Improbable, and having become seriously in
volved as security was doubtless driven to the
commission of the rash act by his pecunary
eulbarrasSmentS.

The state rights democrat. [volume] (Albany, Linn County, Oregon) 1865-1900, 1872-08-16

ATTORNEY GEN. WILLIAMS OPIN-
IoS.-The Washington correspond
ent of the Cincinnati Commercial in
teryicwcd Ex-senator Williams on
the political situation just prior to the
North Carolina election, and states
that "as to his opinion on the result
OF the coming Presidential election,
he is in grave doubt. He is not by
any means sure that Grant will be
elected, and says at this date that no.
body can presume TO judge Of the
result. lie says it is subject which
the future can alone disclose. He is
one who believes that more depends
upon the result in North Carolina
next Thursday than anything else
II the Grant party are beaten, then
the result will seem largely in favor
of Greeley; but that if Grants peo,
pie carry the State, they will succeed
in November lie thinks, also, that
if Grant, on Thursday, carries North
Carolina, and the Liberals carry Penn
sylvania and Indiana in October,
Greeley will be elected"
The state rights democrat. [volume] (Albany, Linn County, Oregon) 1865-1900, 1872-08-16

THE Statesman narrates a conver.
sation between A. B. Meacham and
Col. Gates, the former Republican and
the latter Democratic candidate for
Presidential elector, in which the Col
onel is reported to have declared in a
very undignified manner, his dissatis-
faction with the nomination of Gree.
ley. Now, we have no doubt but
Col. Gates would have preferred to
have canyassed the State for man
who had always accorded with him in
his political views. But that he used
the language imputed to him by the
fellow Meacham, we deny The Col
onel is man of honor and personal
dignity, while Mr.. Meacham is conce-
ded even by his friends, to be a VAN,
shallow fellow, with far higher opin-
ion of himself than his friends have of
him. The Statesman will have to
bring in better testimony than that of
the defunct Indian Superintendent,
before its little tale is believed.

NEWS OF THE WEEK.
Cleaned From the Telegraph.
Friday, August 9.

Putt, Chairman of the National
Executive Committee of the Labor
Reform party, has issued circular
by direction of the Executive Com
mittee, re-assembling the Columbus
Convention on the 31st of August.
Official returns from all the wes-
tern counties in North Carolina, have
been received except Ashe and Yam
cey. Caldwell is elected by about
one thousand majority. Democrats
claim that there have been frauds
committed, and it is thought that the
election will be contested. The Re-
publicans hold a jubilee tomorrow
night.
The Times Raleigh, N. c., special
tonight says returns from eleven of
the thirteen counties heretofore un-
heard from, give Caldwell net gain
of forty-seven. Only two counties
remain to hear from. Caldwell's
majority is over two thousand. The
Legislature (all but two counties)
stands-Senate, 81 Democrats and
10 Republicans; House, 63 Democrats
and 81 Republicans.
In accordance with the letter of
Gerritt Smith to the President ask
ing the release of Ku Klux prisoners
now confined in the Albany peniten-
tiary, the General to whom the
