THE President lately said to a Buffalo
gentleman that he hoped the next session
of the present Congress would take prop.
er steps for enforcing resumption by the
lst Of July, 1876. In reply to sugges-
lion that a financial panic might grow
out OF naming so early day, the Presi-
dent said he did not anticipate any such
effect. He thought the country would be
FULLY prepared for the change by that day,
and 1t was not day too soon for resump,
ton. The main thing was to get the
public mind settled upon some early day,
and then business would surely adjust
itself to the emergency,

June 5th, 1874.
Iwrite you again in regard to the gang
of thieves in this county, who, am glad to
inform you, are being taken up through the
agency OF Mr.. Robert B. Craddock, detect
i've, of your city, who has been in this coun-
ty for the past ten days, and has succeeded
in arresting Henry Turner, Charles Counts,
Jim Mays, Sam Mays, Bill Scott, and Tom
Jones alias Baker, six of the most notorious
thieves in the county, who have been depre-
dating on the farmers for years past. They
have been going in gangs, and if seen while
stealing would shoot at and keep the owner
in his house until they accomplished their
object, generally carrying off i've and six
hundred pounds of meat at once. There
are more of the gang still at large, but Mr..
Craddock says he will get the last one Of
them and believe he will, as he is now on
the scout. Will write again as soon as he
gets back. Yours, &c, BOB.

forces it rs follows;
ave publish the above editorial from the
Dispatch not for the purpose OF engaging in
the pleasant discussion between our two
Richmond contemporaries, who are fully able
to manage it themselves, but simply because
the views on this question here so conclusive
" presented are precisely those advanced by
lis some months ago, and more ably enforced.
There should be no debate about the qucs-
ton at all. The war whipped Us out
of all State rights, and the three new amend
ments to the Constitution lcYolutionized our
original form of government 10 all intents
and purposes. The abolition of slavery alone
| produced in the orig inal structure material
change; negro suffrage made it fundamental,
while the acts OF reconstruction and laws
since past have oblitcrated all the original
laws OF State rights, and converted union
of independent republics into Il central con-
soldaled despotism Of helpless States. This
is certainly the truth of the case. unlalatable
