LET Us HAVE FEACE.
Wade Hampton to the Old Union
Veterans i'm Pittsburgh.

PITTsBURGH, December lj.-The state
ment that Senator Wade Hampton has
been invited TO deliver q lecture for the
Grand Army oi the Republic IN this city
has been denied here and elsewhere,
and, 10 set AT rest all rumors, the lecture
committee to-day gave Hampton's letter
OF acceptance for publication. The let
ter is dated Columbia, South Carolina,
and the pith OF it is as follows: Owing
to the physical disability under which
! labor ut present ! have been forced to
decline all invitations 10 deliver public
addresses, but the invitation YOU extend
is so cordial and significant that
shall try 10 make an exception IN Its
favor. 1t seems 10 me that no
surer mode TO restore harmony
between the two sections OF the
country so lately contending in arms
can be found than to bring the old
soldiers of the two armies into friendly
consultation. Brave men are apt to
be generous, and if those who once
opposed each other in battle could now
meet "a citizens of a common country,
actuated 10y the desire of restoring
harmony and Cultivating peace among
all classes. We should soon see the Bit
ter sectional feeling which politicians
are fostering Tor their own selfish ends
laid al rest forever. Your invitation
has this end in view, as | understand
ii, and | shall gladly cooperate with
you in this laudible object. 1t will not
bein my power TO deliver an address
just now, but shall be happy to do SO
at some future time that will suit you.
The Grand Army boys have not yet
fixed the date. The proceeds OF the
lecture will be donated to the relief fund
for destitute members, and the mana
gers expect large profits, as their course
has been greatly commended here.

EWoodsfeld not beina represented

to let you know that the Dark Hills
are still in existence.
Our new railroad is doing a good
business in shipping cattle, hogs,
wheat, &c. There is considerable talk
OF extending the road to Summerfeld,
Noble county, o.
Our village is improving some; as yet
there are no new buildings, but several
intend to build soon.
Some Bellaire men are here making
preparations to start a stave factory.
The business of the community is
good. 4 large amount OF wheat has
been bought in this community at Sl.25
and Sl.30, but some of the farmers are
holding for higher prices.
Hogs and cattle find ready sale.
Hides in great demand at 6lG7c.
The health OF the town and vicinity is
good.
The VI. +. Church is making some
preparations for an entertainment
Christmas Eve.
The NJ. L. Sunday School will give the
scholars a treat on Christmas eve, and
the little fellows have decided to quit
rabbit hunting on Sunday, join the NJ.

tan lives. BY the way, would it not be
a good plan to have Christmas come
twice a week and keep the bows good
The temperance boom is on the de-
cline.
The Greenbdcksr is a thing of the past.
Petty thieves are doing a good busi-
ness now in visiting clothes lines and
poultry roosts.
Some of the Republican papers seem
to think that the new railroad will cause
the Democratic boys to vote the Repub-
lican ticket. Humph! not bad. 1t is a
fact that some of the boys get a little
flighty sometimes, but before they get
that far gone we send them 10 the asy-
lum at Athens for treatment.
But enough for the present,

Communication with General Roberts In
terrupted.

LONDON, December 1.-THE Viceroy
of India telegraphs to-day that the COM
munications with General Roberts are
interrupted.
David Shah, formerly commander
in-chief OF the Afghan army, has been
protesting to cooperate with the British
since the occupation OF Cabul, and his
arrest would seem TO indicate that the
recent treachery or discovery OF the
proofs OF his perfdy in the affair OF the
slaughter of the British Embassy in
Cabul, on which occasion he was sent
by The Ameer to quell the revolt, and
publicly received thanks OF the British
officers for his pretended efforts to as
slst Cavagnarl at Quebec.
LONDON, December 1.-The Nlceroy
of India telegraphs to-day as follows:
Gen. Roberts has seven thousand ellec-
tive troops, who have been withdrawn
into Shirpur. The enemy must suffer
very severely ii they make any attempt
on Shirpur. consider Gen. Roberts

resuming the offensive as soon as he is
settled in Shirpur, but, as he says, there
is nothing to be gained in capturing
the difficult distant hills while
the enemy is out in such
numbers. The enemy will shortly
disperse ior food, but in the meanwhile
our evacuation OF Cabul will encourage
them and probably enable them to keep
together longer than they otherwise
would, and tend TO raise the tribes upon
our lines of communication. The gov
ernor OF Jellabad has fled from his post
but has been satisfactorily replaced.
General Cough reports from Judalak
that all the tribes in his front have
risen, and that his further advance is
consequently impracticable without re-
inforcements. General Bright is send
ing what reinforcements he can, but
he does not like to weaken the Khyber
line. One and a half regiments Of inlan-
try, one regiment Of cavalry and bat
tery OF artillery left Pestawur for the
