1socKFonD, H., May 18.--Ticre has been

remembered that, two years ago, tho Holly

owing bonded indebtedness Of ncarly $780,
600; and 1lcncc portion of tho Water Works

then acrved by Elisha Kirk, which put
stop to the issuing OF my more timc-
orders, aMtl nlso TO tic completion OF the
Works, though nhout s250, 900 had at that timo
been expended. The injunction is slowly work.
Ing Its way through tic Courts, but no decision
Inns been reached. Some Of our citizens, hut
happily only few, arc IN favor Of tho rcputlta-
tfon Of a portion Of the indcltclncss,-I believe
nlout $4,000. Inst Mon,lay, $1,000 worth Of

CHEERING.

The reports received from every
part of the country in regard to the
great movement for a regeneration
of our Government are of the most
encouraging character, and from
present appearances several States
will go for Tilden and Reform that
few weeks ago were generally cons
ceded to Zach Chambers candid
ates. In the South, the enthusiasm
for the St. Louis ticket is over,
whelming, and the more intelligent
of the colored voters are for Tilden
and Hendricks. 1t will require
more bayonets than Don Cameron
will have at his disposal to carry
single Southern State. except, posi-
bly,, South Carolina; and even
there Wade Hampton, standing on
a sound Union platform, pledged to
honest government and the protec
ton of every citizen without regard
to race or color, bids fair to win in
November, provided the elections
are honestly conducted. A we'll in
formed correspondent in Louisiana
writes that that State is sure for
Tilden and Hendricks, and that
Gen. Nichols will be elected Gov
ernor by 10000 majority; also,
that he will receive the largest negro
vote ever polIed for the Conserva>
tive party in Louisiana, while the
carpet baggers' ticket will not bring
out even the regular strength of the
legitimate Republican vote.-N. Y.
