q county which the Courthouse ring was
sunnosed to carry in its breeches pocket
we hear from more than one source that the

is even better. A great Greenback stir is
going on in Lynchburg and Campbell, ana

A grand mass-meeting was beld at Halle

There were at least 800 voters present.
Colonel Newman was in his best trim, spoke
eioquently to his neighbors, telling them OF
the lies that were being circulated against
him for political effect, and appealed to
them as his neighbors to brand these SLAM

which occupied one hour and half, the
meeting endorsed him with three hearty
cheers-only three or four personal enc

Every convention and every Radical
speaker uses his name in vain on all
occasions. Sherman is r,aking dcs-
pcraic fight, and Blaine is not asleep.
But Grant has the inside track.
Just now the Radicals are little
ahead in preparations for the great
fight in 1880. No one can tell, how
ever. what day may bring forth. All
depends on New York.
