A painful rumor held the town in sus-
pense for an hour or more last evening
to the effect that the President had been
assassinated. To say that our public
was unusually alarmed, and that deep re-
grets at such an event and maledictions
upon the head Of the assassin were freely
expressed, is to say only what was the
general feeling. Opposed TO General
Grant as we are, and to the political
party that supported him, we
cannot afford that the good name
of America shall again be tar
nished with a crime foreign to all our
ideas Of fair play, Of submission 20 the
viii Of the majority expressed at the bal
lot-box, and Of the openness, candor and
manliness that are distinguishing traits
Of our race. And We are glad to say
there i not even foundation for the ru-
NOR, which, after diligent search, has
been traced to the conversation of tele-
graph operators, lone in Memphis and
the other in a neighboring city, touch
ing the possibilities or eventualities in
case OF the repetition of such an event
as that Which robbed the South Of the
friendship and good offices Of Abraham
lincoln and increased the sectional hate
he had allayed by his example and mod
Grafton. We trust his assassination viii
he the last, a. it is the first crime Of the
character on the American calendar.
