TIE CUSTER MEMORIAL BALL.-The Her.
aid correspondent, writing from the Green
brier White Sulphur Springs in relation to
the Custer Memorial ball, which is to take
place on the evening of August I'd, says:
"There is no doubt whatever that distin-
guishcd eX-Confederate officers will be will
ing to eulogize Custer, and there is lively
anticipation, particularly among the north
ern visitors, that the President will take
advantage OF this grand opportunity on
southern soil to do that simple justice and
honor to Clusters memory which is due. 1t
is q time when President Grant can make
friends with the southerners, and northern
crS, too, and in meeting together in Il mu-
tual movement to erect Il monument to Gus
ter and his men inaugurate the great CEN
tennial event OF ia thorough rcconcilia-
ton Of the North and the South"

INCREDIBLE BLUNDERING.-The explosion
Of the boilers of the English man-of-war
Thunderer appears to have been caused by
2 piece Of negligence which throws the stu
pidity Of the orders that resulted in the
sinking of the Vanguard and the careless
ness that almost sent the Iron Duke to the
bottom completely in the shade. Having
wedged down all the valves OF the boilers
to test them by hydraulic pressure the engi-
neers few days afterward began to get up
steam without removing the wedges. As
there was no escape for the yapor except
through the sides OF the boiler it went that
way when the proper pressure had been
reached. The English are ominously I'M
lucky with their new iron navy.-Herald.

The RIVER AND HARBoR BnL.-The Sem
ate having voted down all substitutes for
the river and harbor appropriation bill, the
House bill, as amended by the Senate, will
undoubtedly be passed, as a large majority
of the Senate is in favor of the bill in its
amended shape. The total amount OF the
bill may be reduced to the extent OF few
hundred thousand dollars when it escapes
the conference, but it is the general impress
sion that the river and harbor bill this year
will appropriate over S6,000,000. Among
| the items in the bill as it now stands are the
following: $4,000 for the harbor Of Balti-
more, Md; $4,000 for the Improvement OF
the James river, Virginia; 100000 for the
Improvement OF the Cape Fear river, North
Carolina; 100000 for the improvement OF
the Great Kanawha river, West Virginia
$50, 900 for the harbor OF Norfolk, Va; $16,0

Correspondence Of the Richmond Dspatch.l
OK THE WING, July 81, 1876.
1t was the good fortune OF your CORE
spondent to travel over the North Carolina
division Of the Richmond and Danville rail-
road u day or two ago in company with
Major 4. B. Andrews, their able superin-
tendent. This road, under his excellent
management, is now in better condition
than ever before. and is doing f1ourishing
business, considering the dull season, while
the expense Of running it mas been greatly
reduced.
The political fever ranges high among all
classes from the sturdy old farmer OF the
West down to the crossroads politician.
Tildcn, Vance, and Reform are upon the
lips of every white man you come in con-
tact with. All along the line OF this road
may be seen high poles and flags with Til
den, Vance, and Reform painted in large
letters. Over the archway OF gate lead
ing to Colonel Bingham's military academy
ut Mebanesville is stretched huge piece OF
white cloth upon which is painted in most
conspicuous manner, "Tiden, Vance, and
Reform"
The crops along the road are completely
burnt up. Especially between Greensboro
and Raleigh is this noticeable, where no
rain has fallen for several weeks. The
bushes and underground, rs well rs old
trees, in many instances are dying for want
OF rain.
There will he a<tremcndous rallying OF
the Democrats OF Wake and adjoining coun-
tics tomorrow Saturday mt Holly Springs,
about fifteen miles from Raleigh, upon
which occasion many speeches will be made
and huge barbecue be given to the inter
riticd.
The ball which was struck here in this
campaign on the 14th Of July by Bat>man
Vance, and passed the centre-tielder, still
rolls steadily on; so that in November next
the homc-run will be completed and Captain
Ti-dcn will carry OFT the largest score that
has been gained by any Democratic club in
years.
As / write We are being blessed with Il
very refreshing rain in this locality. c.

Private Secretary BabcOck Neither Re.
signs Nor Is Dismissed.

We regret to find that Gen. Babcock re-
rsumed his duties yesterday ct the Presidential
Mansion as il nothing had happened. He
denies that he offered his resignation, asserts
that he does not intend to offer it, and it is
not expected that the President will req uire
it. We are sorry that President Grant is not
disposed to make this concession to the pub
lie sense Of propriety. It would have
been q suitable indication of regret
foc his intimate personal association
with the leaders Of the whisky ring His
former intimacy with those disgraced people
should be alike deplored by himself and the
and President who wishes to keep
his honor clear should have no hesitation in
acknowledging his imprudence and want of
penetration. He was more to blame than
Bahcock for having such cronies, because the
latter could not very well withhold his conf.
dence from the Presidents friends. A dis
missal of Babcock would of course imply
some sell. condemnation, but it is incumbent
on the President to make amends for having
been caught in criminal company.
Such an acknowledgment would have been
