POLITICAL.

An Illinois paper hoists the name of vii
lard c. Flagg for the next President of the
United States. Mr.. Flagg is now nj the
head OF the Farmers organization in Hi
nois.
The President is said to have told Mosby
that hereafter he intended to appoint to
ofhce from the South the best men for the
positions, and that he was very much graft
ted at the good feeling manifested BY the
virginia conservatives towards his admin
istration, and was ready to respond to it.
There has been intense bitterness against
Mr.. Cox since the first Democratic caucus.
IN which he was defeated as the party nomi-
nee ior Speaker, on account of his enthusi-

bitterness took expression in a very seathiny
personal assault upon him by Grassland. a
Democrat from Kentucky. Grassland de-
nounced Cox as demagogue and hypo-
crite, and at attempted Interruptions by
Cox, ordered the latter to take his seat
The climax of Grassland was reached when,
referring to the records of former Con-
gress, he cited as passage fitting TO de-
scribe the character of Cox the words

inadvertent intimation on the part Of the
eminent zoologist. that he doubted whether
a human body swallowed by whale would
be in good condition three days afterwards,

that period should have had residing within
her borders, at some time. three out of the
last twenty-five revolutiona ry pensioners,

tribnted to the american Historical Record
a brief notice of these last twenty-five sur

notices of the three Nermonters. The first
is John Pettingell, who died in Henderson.
