1t will be seen 10y reference to the
first column of the second page, that
some candidates for The various Offices
within the gift Of the people, are an
noppcing themselves, pr being an
uounced by their friends. 1t has been
the custom Of the REpUBE1cAS, ever
since it las been in the hands of the
present proprietor, to say nothing as
to the comparative merits of the diff
fcrent candidates for nomination, and
we see no reason at this time for vary.
ing from this rule. We only say to
the people, that all the candidates will
be announced, and they will probably
be variety enough for them to select
from. 1t is, of course, material to the
interests of ti'e county and the party,
that the best men for each position
should be chosen as our candidates.
AS to who fills the bill, judge ye.
Thus far this has beeu the liyeliest
court week this county has ever seen.
Although %e have number Of large
hotels, beside few boarding houses,
all are full to overhowing Several
important civil cases are put down for
this court, and rather more than the
usual number of Commonwealth cases
are to be tried. All these require a
number of witnesses, all of whom are
apparently present. Beside this, po-
litlcal matters have called number
of people among Us who are not gen.
orally here on ordinary court weeks.
Altogether, business is brisk, and our
town presents the appearance of a
fresh oil centre, which aspect we live
in hopes il will soon perpetually ex-
hibit. ~ e----- - g.
VIM. Reek, who returned from
Pittsburgh, last week, informs US that
he saw Prof" A. c. Porter in that
city just as he was leaving. Porter
was getting on an eastern bound train.
Reck stepped up and shook hands with
him, asking him where be was bound.
Porter replied he was going east, which
fact was evident to casual observer.
We would advise him to confne his
travels exclusively to the east and west,
and not on any account TO venture
north as faras Tionesta or Clarion.
On Saturday last we saw DIR.
Hunter riding by supporting a man
who had his arm in a sling, and ap.
peared to bo suffering terribly. Upon
interviewing the DIR. We found that the
mans name was Dotterer, and that he
had bruised his hand while running

the bruise had finally taken the shape

EAST TENNESSEE NEWS.


The wheat crop is about ready for
harvesting. and some Of our farmers
have already commenced cutting. The
WELD seems to be generally satisfacto-
ry. Mr.. William Staples informs us
that he has one tract Of sixteen acres
than which he has never seen better
looking field.
Work at the foundry is progressing
finely. Mr.. G. Houghton, who has
charge of the work, assures us that he
will be ready to commence operations
in very few weeks-in ample time to
get out handsome lot OF plows, ETC.,
for the fall trade Valley NetCs.
From Wartburg letterlin the Val.
leg NeaOs, it appears that the railroad
men are making it lively in Morgan
county. The writer says:
One of the railroad hands had lit
tie misunderstanding the other day
with gentleman by the name of
Honeycutt, who resides in Montgom-
cry, and in his anger struck him in
the back of the heSd with a rock. Mr..
Honeycutt's life was dispaired of for a
time, but | learn he Il better to day.
Another of the railroad hands got
too much Fourth of July water aboard
day before yesterday and shot at n
young gentleman who was passing
from work along the road. No harm
was done, however.
The following is from the Morris
town Gazette:
Most of the farmers in this vicinity
will be harvesting their wheat this
week. From every quarter, the word
is that the crop is unusually large and
free from damage.
A correspondent at Thorn Hill gives
us the particulars of terrible outrage
committed upon the person of Miss
Martha Hipsher, daughter of Boston
Hipsher, living three miles above
Thorn Hill, on the 9th inst. The facts,
as given in evidence the unfortunate
Young woman, are as follows: -Four
young men, viz: 'Joppy' Goffey, Gin

borne Wolfe, went TO the house OF
Boston Hipsher and found the young
lady lying across the bed, she being al
the time unwell and alone. They pro

The Republican Caucus--The Views
Expressed on the occasion.

The caucus of the Republican menu
bers of both Houses of Congress was
held at the House of Representatives
this evening for the purpose of re.or-
ganizing the Republican Congressional
Committee for the fall canvass. The
speeches were brief and few in number,
and the appointment of Congress
sional Committee was authorized in the
usual form-that Is, each State delega.
ton will select its own member of the
committee. The motion to re-organize
the committee was made by Mr.. Stark
weather, of Connecticut. Judge KEEL
ley, of Pennsylvania, thought the APP
pointment of Congressional Commit
tee would be of no use, as he claimed
there was no issue on which the Re.
publican party could enter the canvass
that the only important measure before
the country was that of finance, upon
which the party was greatly divided.
Mr.. Kassan, of Iowa, replied that a
party which had reduced the budget of
National expenses twenty millions of
dollars during the present session of
Congress, and which was devising
methods of cheapening the removal of
the products to market from eighteen
Of the States of the Union to the sea-
board, had enough questions on which
it could ask to be sustained in a politi-
cal canvass.
Mr. Lynch, the colored member
from Mississippi,s spoke of the necessity
OF the continuance of the Republican
party for the colored race of the South.
He said that it mattered little to them,
in comparison, about the dishonesty
of leaders, for If il were true that Re-
publican Governments in the South
lad stolen money from the people, the
Democrats proposed to steal away their
rights and that the colored popula-
tin of the South could not maintain
Their rights unless the Republican
parE endured. He said they did not
taket very much to heart that Con-
Gress had refused to pass the Civil
Right bill, for the party had been true
to then in the past. and they put their
trust II it for the future. A speech
was alsonade by Senator Chandler.
Senator lamlin was Chairman of the
caucus, All Messrs. Parsons of Ohio
and Lyno of Mississippi, were the
Secretaries; No want of harmony was
developed, byond the expression from
Mr.. Kelly WIch has been alluded to

Cleansing the Treasury Department

General Bristow has continued to
make things lively in the Treasury
Department. Only two days have
elapsed since he assumed the duties of
his office, but there is not an official or
retainer of the Department who is not
pretty we'll convicted that there is a
party by the name of Bristow at the
head of affairs. They have all been
given to understand that they will be
held directly responsible by the new
Secretary. A thorough oYerhauling is
being had. The story of the unparallel-
ed manner in which Mr.. Mullett was
compelled to explain yesterday why
his order should be signed was soon
noised over the Department, and the
officials have since been going about in
state OF round-eyed amazement that

unheard of. To-day Mr.. Vanderbilt

TOM SCOTT AND ERIE.
How he FIXED the Erie aud Held on
10 the Pennsylvania Road.

10 the EenntytNhnth hohos
A Philadelphia correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial, writing about
the death of J. Edgar Thomson, Pres
ident OF the Pennsylvania road and
his successor, says:
Colonel Scott has, however, kept an
eye on his own personal interests, and
has managed to play trump card
within the past few days. 1t has been
suspected in certain circles, since Pres
ident Watson's troubles with Dunan,
McHenry and Bischoffsheim, that he
would have to retire from the Presi-
dency of the Erie Railroad. This has
not only proved to be true, but Ii Is
now found that the Erie managers
have gone so far as TO cast about them
for his successor, and that several days
ago they actually rendered the Presi-
dency to Colonel Scott. Here was that
gentleman's chance. He knew that II
he refused the offer and determined to
stand by the Pennsylvania Railroad,
the Directors of the latter road would
feel Obliged to make him, in return for
this sacrifice, President in Mr.. Thorn
sons place. He was not disposed to
let the Erie game slip from him, how
ever, without taking a hand in it, and
came to the very sensible conclusion
that If he couldn't take the Presiden-
cy of Erie himself it might be as well
to have one of his friends in that posi-
ton. He accordingly invited Mr..
James McHenry, the English capital
list, down to Philadelphia, and talked
the matter over with him. In very
little while these two gentlemen came
to an understanding, and it was agreed
among them that the next President
of Erie should be Mr. Hugh J. Jewett,
a Director of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati
and st. Louis, or Panhandle Rail-
road. On Saturday last Colonel Scott,
Mr.. Jewett and Don Cameron went
on to New York and had a talk with
Mr.. S. l.. M. Barlow on the subject,
and the arrangement made between
Mr.. McHenry and Colonel Scott was
also agreed TO in this conference. This
side-play, which went on unknown ia
any but those in the game, undoubted.
ly helped Colonel Scott very material.
ly in obtaining the Presidency of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, will certainly
assist him quite as materially in hi,
manipulations of Erie.
