Washington gossip names ex-senator
Simon Cameron, of Pennsylvania, as the
forthcoming nominee OF President Hayes
for the English mission, made vacant by
the resignation Of Judge Piorrepont.
RumOr says that President Hayes agreed
to tender tho position to whoever was
unanimously recommended by the Penn

Simon, with his wonderful influence, 80
cured the recommendation. We place
vory little reliance, however, In this an
nouncement, for President Hayes cannot
consistently make such an appointment

cal canvass, anG tiiv off;ico holding por-
tion of the party are paving the way to
take the defeat which appears to bo i'm.
Hinent as gracefully as possible by hav.
ing nothing to do with tho canvass, and
cxcusing their inactivity on tho ground
that the Presidents ciyi! service order
forbids them to have anything to do with
politics. Attorney General Dovens,
however, realizes the situation, and en-
deavors to stir them up in tho cause Of
Repubiicanlsm by writing from WASH

1 learn with surprise and regret that
any OF the Republican officials hesitate

order. In distinct terms that order STATES
that the right of officials to vote and ex-
press their views on public Queations,
either orally or through tho press, is not

If such gentlemon chose not to vots. s.; or
not to express their viewg in support Of

not probable that the remedy Attempted,
to bo applied Is equal to tho end desired
to be accomplished, lor while the offico-
holders are upsshetio the people are an
tagonistic to the party which has &c long
been guilty of frand. tyranny and COR

cause of the apathy displayed by the fed-

REDUCTION In PRICE.
$3.50 PER YEAR.

In view Of the fact that everything is
now much cheaper than It has been in
the past, we have decided to furnish our
subscribers with the IETELLIGENCER at
One Dollar and Fifty Cents year, II
paid in advance, or Two Dollars If poid
at the end of the year.
In doing this we do not intend to reduce
the size of our paper, nor to pay less at
tention to it, but will endeavor to maize
it better than it has been heretofore, and
hope to receive large additions to our
subscription list. We ought to have at
least twenty-five hundred readers in An
derson County, and hops that our friends
will help us to secure that number very
soon. In making this change in price,
we have put the paper down to the lowest
possible margin, and must have the
money III advance. We could not afford
to publish at this price upon any other
plan. We hope all of our subscribers
will at once come in and pay up their
arrearages and renew at our reduced rates
for another year. The following gentle
men ere our authorized agents, and pay
ments made to them will be accredited
by us:
