The name Of Robert Lincoln, son of President
Lincoln, is mentioned in Illinois for Secretary OIL
State.
The republicans of North Carolina confidently
predict that they will carry the State by maj or-
ity of al least 3000
Congressman Martin l. Townsend told the eii-
tor of the Troy Wing the other day that if the
"House of Representative could nominate Pres
ident they would nominate Blaine"
The Ohio Legislature has passed bill provid-
ing for the punishment by fine and Imprisonment
of all persons who get on off railroad trains
that are in motion.
The Hartford Courant says that members elect
of the Connecticut Legislature and prominent
democratic politicians outside predict Mr.. Eng
lishs defeat for the Scnatorship. The paper calls
English "the candidate jointly Of republican bum
mcIs and democrats
The Baltimore American says that the lie
| against Blaine 'is more than three weeks old,
and that nobody was willing to take the response
billy of publishing it until it was palmed off on
a very green Western editor by Washington
sharper"
Some new charges are brought by the demo-
Gratis against Mr.. Blaine, but they are so COM
pletely sauelched at the first utterance that we
need not spare room to detail them. They relate
to money and bribery, which the party politicians
are coming to regard as the incarnation of human
sins probably because they have tried them on.
We accept in full faith the assurance Mr.. Blaine
gives to one Of his friends in concluding letter
81 trust you will hold peaceful mind; shall
never be injured by stories of this kind."-W Water
riHe Nail.
The Columbus times says that at meeting of
the democratic party Of Gwunett County, Ga,
held April 4, the following resolution was unan-
mously adopted "Resolved. That the course of
Hon. b. H. Hill, immediate representative in
the Congress of the United States, meets our
hearty, unanimous, and unqualified Endorsement;
that his eloquent and triumphant vindication of
mendacious assaults of those who maliciously ira
Guce Us, entities him to the thanks Of every true
Southron."
The Cincinnati Commercial says that some of
the intelligent of the delegates to the recent
colored convention in Nashville express their con
iidcnce that the republicans, with candidate &C
ceptable TO Southern republicans and upon a
sound platform, can carry Virginia, the two Caro-
linas and Florida. They also say that the South :
ern delegations to Cincinnati will be divided in
their preferences for President, and that Morton
chances do not seem to them so good as Baine's
or Bristow's and as for Conkling he is not much
talked of or thought of among them.

The disposition which a. I. Stewart
made of his large wealth occasions gen
eral unfavorable comment. That he
should have made no definite provision
for any large charity was not expected.
He seems to have provided for the contn-
uation of the business which he founded.
and the rest of his property not necessary
to that object goes into the hands of per-
sonal friends and to promote some chart
ties begun in his lifetime. Ii would
seem to have been great deal wiser for
Mr.. Stewart to have given more largely
of his property during his life for benevo-
lent and charitable purposes, when he
could have seen to the management OF il
himself, but he appears to have been una
bic up TO the time of making his will to Sc
lect any such object TO bestow his iavors
upon, and SO ii is left for others to use

absorbed by the system, they are better indicated

street at $3.50 O'Clock, and pursued the tow
path to the Tbree-Mile lock, pausing occa-.
siopslly to gather wild flowers that glistened
in the golden sunlight along the canal bank.
At the lock named a brief rest was taken
for the purpose of quenchiDg thirst with q
draught OF Natures pure and unadulterated
beverage, whose petal-drops freely oozed
from the hillside. From thence the party
continued their walk to the Powhatan IRON,
Works, located at the Fiye-Aile locks. Here
a brief visit was made, and the trio started
across the country to the Plank road on their
journey home. Before gaining the road,
however, 1t was ascertained that the mer-
chant had on pair Of new shoes, which were
of such an sffectionate nature that halt had
to be made in order to ascertain the cause As
well as the effect. - z5:. .ss
The mystery having been solved the walk
was resumed 10 the old toltgate, where an
other draught Of water was taken.9 From
thence the party proceeded to Richmond,

THE INDEPENDENTS HEARD FRoH-ExrRAcT
FROM "THE STATE."-Our reporters have
ascertained that at full meeting of re-
preseniatiyes from the Independent Con.
servatye Citizens Ward Clubs, recently or
ganized n the city of Richmond, held on
Friday evening, March 31st, 1876, it was
ResoIoed, 1. That a primary election can.
not in the nature Of things represent the
wishes of large portion Of the citizens Of
Richmond, because they will not attend the
polls; and if they would, could not compete
with the voters that are controlled by the
trained politicians ofthe party.
q. That such an election, however fairly
conducted, is based upon the idea that ma.
Eority has the right to dictate the votes Of the
party land such principle is hostile to the
right and duty Of every man to consult his;
best;iudgment In casting his vote.
8. That all that any party has right to do
is to torecomnsend candidates to the suffrages
OF the people, and no party has any right to
bind the voters to support any man against,
his conscientious convictions IS to the fitness
aud capacity Of the candidate for Office chosen
by primary election, t0,which, for theaboVe
reasons, I'VE are unsltefabiy opposed.
