should be our main object to defeat. We
would therefore, under all the circum.
stances, respectfully ask you TO withdraw
your candidacy.

gencer will enlighten the world as how
the Col. took his nomination, as his
speech is well reported in that journal.
The Co.'s. manner, however, cannot be
depicted by words, wildly rolling eyes,
defiant attitude and directly pointed
finger and outstretched arm, 81 say to
you, sirs p' ''Goshens," as the boys
say, the GRANTEES felt like getting out
of the way. In shaking hands across
the "blOody chasm," the Col. reached
so far that in the opinion of his friends
he has got clean over or has fallen into
it. After the Col. had finished, Gen.
s. Z. Cary favored the crowd with a
sight of his horny hand. The Gen. has
a happy faculty of making his old anec-
dotes every place and on every subject.
The only remark that / heard that ]
thought relevant to the occasion was,
that Things had got considerably
mixed" and before Cary had done
every one in the house agreed to that
proposition. Good humor appeared to
prevail generally, as general rule the
Convention was composed of sterling
and gentlemanly citizens; and their
personal conduct among US was of such
a nature that we can safely say to them,
call again.
The political campaign is now fairly
opened and presents a rare spectacle,
which is fairly illustrated by what fire.
quently took place in the field during
the war, viz: Rebel soldiers dressed in
blue always to deceive, never in the
honorable capacity of brave soldier op-
ponents; it is now, men putting on
the uniform of Republicans to deceive
the rank and file of the great Repub-
lican camp; but they are known and
their designs, however secret and how
ever cunningiy devised, will be frus-
trated, their false uniforms will be
stripped from them, and all their hid
eous and disgusting deformity will be
exposed.
l understand that some persons have
been industriously circulating a report
that our candidate for sheriff is drink
ing man, dissipated and immoral and
l can say truly with an intimate knowl-
edge of Mr.. COchrane since his boy
hood that there is not a particle of truth
in such report. He Glands among the
first Of our citizens for integrity and a
high moral tone, and the utterance of
such SANDER is unutterably mean, and
our citizens of all classes will vindicate
him triumphantly this fall.
Notwithstanding the excessive heat
the past week has been a remarkably
busy one here; new buildings have been
pushed forward with great energy.
Our several manufactures are pro-
crossing in satisfactory manner; new
enterprises are on the "tapis" and the
general tone of the people with regard
to our future is hopeful.
The general health of our town is
good for the season.
The river is in good stage for navi-
cation and business depending thereon
IS brisk.
Our markets are crowded with all the
fruits Of the season at moderate prices.
If the weather cools off, win give
you an account of some of our improve
ments next week.

Declares for Danford.

We have the very best authority foH
saying that Robert Savage Esq, a
prominent Liberal of Cambridge, most
heartily supports Capt. Danford for
Congress, over G. l.. Poorman. Scores
of Liberal Democrats will doubtless do
the same thing. Such general dissatis-
faction is expressed as to the proceed
ings and results of the County Conven-
tion at Cambridge and the Congression-
al Convention at Bellaire, that we can
not be mistaken in saying that the
tickets nominated will fail to receive
the united vote OF those expected to
support them.-Tfmes.
PERHAPS no real medicine ever gained
the rapid popularity which Castoria has done.
One person relates their experience of its good
effects to another. 1t is Il vegetable prepara-
ton, perfectly harmless, pleasant to take; does
not distress or gripe, but regulates the system,
and is sure to operate when all other remedies
have failed. Any person who has ever used
Castoria for Stomach Ache, Constipation,
Group, Flatulency, Worms, Piles, or deranged
Liver, never again use nauseating Oil, Bitter
Pills or Narcotic Syrups. The Castoria con-
tains neither Minerals, Morphine nor Alco-
hol. By its soothing, quieting effect it pro-
duces natural sleep, and is particularly adapted
to crying and teething children. 1t costs but
35 cents, and one bottle will save many dollars
in doctors bills.

Menagerie Horror.
CHICAGO, August 16,

CHICAGO, August 16, 1872.
A letter from Red Bug, small town
In Monroe County, Illinois, gives a
thrilling account of the performances
with the rhinocer0s attached to War
ner & Co.'S menagerie and circus, on
the occasion of being brought into the
ring for the first time. The shoWmen
had prepared the animal for exhibition
in the ring by attaching to the ring in
his nose two strong wire ropes and
twenty-four stalwart men were deemed
sufficient to control the beast. He SUBJ
mitted quietly to being led from the
cage, bat on entering the arena he sud-
denly threw up his head and plunged
madly about to the right and left,
breaking loose from the men, dashed
forward through the tents. His first
victim was John Gillem, canvasman,
whom he knocked down, and trampled
upon bis breast, killing him instantly.
He next run his nose against Martin
Reed, another canvasman, striking
him in the stomach, ripping out his
bowels, and killing him instantly. He
next made dash in the direction of
the seats, which by this time were
cleared of the frightened spectators.
He knocked down nearly one side of
the seats, dislocating the shoulder of
an employee, and breaking the arm
of spectator. Running into the me-
nagerie tent he upset Forepaugh's den
of performing animals. He next
struck the center pole with his head,
bringing it down with crash upon the
cages of the tiger and leopard, but not
breaking them SO as to allow the ami
mails to escape. Dashing into the Mu-
scum tent, he smashed the curiosities,
STAN peded all the people in the vicini-
ty, and rushed out through the side of
the canvas into the street, finally
bringing up in a vacant house, the door
of which stood open, and here the men
succeeded in capturing him and get
ting him into his cage. The damage to
the show was about s., 900.

the retiring of old issues and the secur-

HOW THE NEXT FOUR YEARS MAY BE
SPENT.
If Greeley is elected we shall spend
the next four years in fighting over the
war quarrels, constitutional amend
ments, negroes rights, State rights. re-
pudiatiOn and Southern debts, and we
shall have besides a contemptuous ig-
noring of the labor qestion. Its friends
were at Cincinnati. The convention
scorned their appeals, and Mr.. SchurZ
himself affirmed that labor was not a
liveissue. President Grant means peace,
and opportunity to agitate the great in
dustrial questions of the day. President
Greeley means the scandal and wrangle
of Andy Johnson's years over again,
with secession encamped in Washing
ton. The saddest line to me of Mr..
Summers letter was where he warns
you eolored men not to band together
in q hostile camp and keep alive the
separation of races.
woRKNGMEN, RALLY NOW
to save your great question from being
crowded out and postponed another
four years. Soldiers, at the roll-call in
November let no loyal man fail to an
swer his name. We decorate our loyal
graves with worse than empty cere-
monies if over them we clasp hands
with still revengeful enemies. When
parties and politicians betray US do you
as you did before, and under the same
great captain to save the State. II
Grant is defeated am not sure we
shall see traitors in the Capitol parting
the nations raiment and casting lots
for its flag, but we are sure to see Con-
gress full of traitors and in the White
House their tool. Let every man who
would avert the danger vote for Grant.
