THIRD TERMIsM DEAD.

The ghost of third termism that
has haunted SO many politicians for
the year past, seems to be harmless
affair after all. No doubt many OF
the place-hunters in the Republican
party and a great many wire pullers
in the Democratic party have labored
assiduonsly to work up the nomina-
tion of General Grant, hoping no
doubt to advance the personal inter
ests of the former and augment the
political capital Of the latter; but
their manipulations of the body poll.
tic has not been as successful as they
have anticipated, judging By the fol
lowing:
Chicago, Jan 27.-Murat Halsted
telegraphs to his paper from Wash
ington as follows respecting the presi-
Dental prospects: There is every
prospect that the Graut presidential
boom will not last more than two
weeks longer. 1t promises to end
peremptorily and finally at the Penn
sylvania state convention next week.
It is reliably learned here that some
of Grants most intimate friends III
Philadelphia have auth ority from him
to act in the premises, and that they
will withdraw his name from consid-
Grafton as candidate at the Penn
sylvania convention, where there will
be delegates from several counties
instructed for Grant, which will give
his friends an opportunity to speak
out OH the subject. HIS friends de
cline to enter into contest for the
position, and of late it has become
very apparent to them that it would
be impossible for him to get the nom
inatien without contest.
r Halsted also quotes James r.
Young, a Grant man, as saying that
Sherman has been dong stalwart
work in his own campaign, and has
alarmed BIaine's followers and sup
porters, and that it is expected that
Blaine will devote himself to getting
the Grant votes, should Grant be
Withdrawn from the canvass.

Thompson. Recently she had door and
lock put upon her wood-shed, but this pre-
caution proved unavailing, as few nights
since the scoundrel broke the lock and laid
in another supply OF fuel. We hope at his

stick loaded with powder, and that his de.
parture hence will be sudden and awful.
No charge will be made for publishing his

LOWER AlseA ITEMS.

The wind and high water upset several
lengths of Prof. Hawthorne's fence.
There is no sickness among the citizens,
whe are busy making improvements.
VIM. Peek is overhauling the saw mill
at Tidewater, putting in new wheel and
other machinery, in order to meet the re-
quirements of the busy time coming.
The Lower Alsea has received large i'm
migration during the past year, and all set
tiers are well pleased with the country
There is still room for more.
The late storm unroofed Mrs. Toby's barn,
and blew the Tidewater school house from
its foundation There was no other damage
in that section, except blowing trees into
the roadway.
The Alsea bay would be splendid loca-
ton for a cannery-salmon of the choicest
varieties being abundant in their season.
There is also a fine location for store. A
good man, with small stock of general
merchandise, would undoubtedly do a pay
ing business from the start, and of course his
tradeyouladevelop with the country.
The completion of the long-talked of
wagon road from Upper Alsea to Tidewater,
distance of twenty-one miles, would in
augurate new era of prosperity in both
sections. The large number of new settlers
would, doubtless, contribute literally either
in money or labor, and we believe that if
the people will now make a combined and
energetic effort, the road can be built in
time to commemorate its completion with a
grand 4th of July celebration at Tidewater.
After the gardens and crops are in the
ground, and between that time and harvest,
will be the proper time to work the road, as
farmers will thus be deprived of no portion
of their products, and can well afford to de-
vote the interval to SO worthy an object.
