The refusal Of the people of VIII n .ba'
60, ILL.,, to allow JEFF Davis to speak al
their fair this fall has created quite a
sympaty for the ex. President of the de.
funct Confederacy, and invitations are
pouring in on him by the score to deliv-
er addresses at expositions and fairs in
different parts Of the country. Whatev.
er we may think of this man there is one
thing certain, his influence with the PEG.
pie of the South is great and he can do
much toward the restoration of good feel.

to the Secretary of the Winnebago Agri.
cultural Associa ton he indicates the
spirit of his addresses, and, as indicated,
he proclaims love for the old flag, de.
sire for the restoration Of perfect harmo-
ny and for the development of our re.
sources and the prosperity of our coun.
try, his visit to the North will be bene.

Of the North will show that they are vii.

REPORTS have recently been circulated
to the effect that the friends of Gov. AL
len intended to have him withdraw from
the gubernatorial contest in Ohio be-
cause they thought his defeat would in
jure his prospects for the Democratic
nomination for the Presidency. Hi
failing health was to be given as the rea
son for leaving the contest. But the
venerable William dispels these rumors
by coming to the front with the an.
nouncement that he ''enjoys the use Of
five perfect Senses" and has no idea Of
giving up the fight. Some of his oppo.
nents on the financial question doubt the
statement as to the give perfect senses, -
but We are glad the fight is to go on q

repeats itself. after the lapse of few
generations the services of Gov. Allen
may again be needed, but this genera
ton is undoubtedly done with him.

the meeting for the election of delegates
will be held in the evening, and it is i'm.
portant that they be we'll attended. In
view Of the fact that the Republicans of
this county have in the past been divided
by local issues and personal affairs it was
the sentiment of the Central Committee
at their meeting last Saturday that all
Republicans, regardless of past actions,
be invited to take part in the township
meetings and at the county convention.
In view Of the approaching Presidential
campaign it would be we'll for the Re-
publican party everywhere, to thoroughly
organize and be ready for the approach

mence this work of organization, and
without presuming to dictate to any
man Is to his duty we ask Republicans

scratching" their tickets as we'll a. those
who have voted straight-to give this
matter q careful consideration.

IT Is claimed that the negroes in the

insurrection, which was prevented by
the timely arrest of some of their lead.

for the uprising. Nearly two hundred
arrests have been made, and there are
various rumors aaoat concerning the ar

Augusta. In his speech he said;
"There was serious cause for appre-
bension of an resurrection in the dis
turbed counties, but owing to the timely
and prudent action of the whites, all
danger has passed. The great mass of
colored people really know nothing of
the danger and gravity of the plot into
which they were being led by q few bad
negroes. He counseled. prudence and

emphatic denial to the popular report Of
the intempersnce Of the late Andrew

says:
"For some weeks after he became

WHAT is needed in Kansas is not the
issue of more greenbacks, but more pro-
duce, cattle and hogs to sell for green.
backs. Where these things are to be
sold 50 as to make "business" there is no
lack Of currency. At the leading wheat
markets in the State men are on hand
with their pockets full Of money to buy
every bushel Of wheat offered for sale.
This talk about there being such a great
lack of currency is "too thin" to cover
up these facts.

That Georgia "lnslrreetiss.

The character of the Associated Press
agents South has become SO thoroughly
established that no one believes anything
that comes from them. The Northern,
Eastern, and Western newspapers almost
unanimously scout as ridiculous and I'M
worthy of serious attention the story Of
that Georgia ''insurrection." No insur-
rection was ever contemplated by the
colored men of Georgia. If the negroes
were people who could be guilty of ''in-
surrection," their time had come when
the war was raging, and the old men, the
women and the children, were left to
their care. The negro is not an insur-
rectionist. These reports are either
concocted for political effect, or to afford
a pretext for shooting or hanging col
ored men obnoxious to the White
League leaders.-Atchison Champion. &

The perspective view will be placed in
the hands Of County Centennial Boards,
Ladies' Centennial Organizations, ETC.,

allowed. The profits to the State Board
will be placed to the credit of the build.
ing Fund. The commission arising from
the sales to the local organizations can
constitute q County Centennial Fund.
for the payment Of expenses incident to
making county collections.
The exhibition will be by counties.
That of the State will be simply an ag-
gregation of county collections. County
maps and large Slate map, in connec-
ton with the display, will enable every
visitor to fix the locality from which ev-
cry article on exhibition WA obtained.
The present generation will never
have like opportunity to present to
the world the evidence Of our rich and
varied resources, and of the wonderful
progress and substantial prosperity,
which have characterized the settlement
of the State. We want immigration,
Multitudes of all nationalities, visiting
the great exhibition at Philadelphia, and
looking Westward for homes and invest
ment, will carefully examine and compare
not only the productions of one State
with those of another, but those of the
several counties in given State. The
possible and probable advantages tn each
county, then, in securing a creditablc
display can hardly be realized.
The managers confidently rely upon
the hearty corporation of the citizens of
the several counties with the county aux
ilary organizations tn aid and forward
the general work, and to assure credits-
bic county displays.
Yours, very respectfully,
ALFRED GRAY,
Secretary.

NOTES AND EXTRACTS.

1t does not appear from the size and
enthusiasm Of Mr. Kelley's audiences in
Indiana and Illinois that the people out
there are crying for his SOS like children
for peppermint lozengers.-Hdrrisburg
Mr.. Hendricks is statesman who hes
reduced the art of sitting with digni
and composure to something very Ike

wants to be soundly beaten next year \
can't do better.-Springfeid Republican.

reported from two counties in Illinois
had occurred in Georgia, Tennessee, or
any other Southern State what q howl
would have been sent up from the Rad.

Ben. Wade thinks Ohio will go ''all
right this year." The Republicans will
not be fooiishly over-con6dent, and will
be at the polls. Mr.. Wade's opinion

taken, and is willing to assist in holding.
