[By Telegraph to the sentinel.l


the managers of the Democratic canvass;
they have been meeting daily IN conference
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel; they have been
making excursion trips down the harbor on
visits of congratulation to Governors
Island, and have been lunehing and winning
in Gramercy Park, with a profusion of
spread eagle speeches on the occasion, but
not a word has been said by any of them to
the public, which shows a sound apprecia-
ton of the real nature Of the Presidential
canvass. Not a word designed to argue
that the people will be any better off in
their home comforts, by electing the DEM
ocratic candidates; on the contrary, they
have been dealing in fuss and feathers.
The Tribune reports that the Republican
Committee has cheering news from all
quarters. The Herald's Washington cor
respondent on the contrary, says that
Conkling is again sulking in his tent, and
adds Not long ago Conkling asked a
prominent member of the National Com
mittee if the brilliant Hale and chivalric
Frye were going to elect Garfield with the
same enthusiasm that they determined to
nominate Blaine at Chicago. The Com
mittee replied that with the assistance Of
the Senator they hoped for success. Conk-
ling's answer was not such as encouraged
the members of the committee to expect
his cooperation. The same, it is said, was
true of Logan until he was put at the head
Of the subcommittee of the National
Committee, to take charge of the campaign
in the West.
The Herald's Galena special says 1t
is authoritatively stated here that General
Grant will return to Galena before the first
of August, settle up his affairs, and go to
New York, where a position is open to his
acceptance. The General has been ten
dered the Presidency of the American
branch OF De Lessep's Canal Company, at
a salary of $25, 1000 a year. This he has
refused, on the ground that the enterprise
would not prove a financial success during
the lives of those now interested in the
scheme, and he could not lend his name
to an undertaking in which his friends
were likely to embark and receive no re-
turns from, if they did not entirely lose
their dividends.
Exciting Events in Carroll County.
CHICAGO, July 16.-The Times has a
special detailing the exciting events in
Carroll county, Arkansas, by which a
thievish tramp and two citizens lost their
lives. J. w. Myers, a farmer living in
that county, found upon returning to his
home from the fields, that it had been
plundered in his absence. He Immediately
gave chase and ran the thief down into
Scott county, Missouri, where he was stop
ping over night at the house of Mr.. Kim
berling. He soon had him covered with a
pfHn o,1 fha $40 49, cz .u.l .---Il
surrender; but five seconds later he drew
a pistol, while his captor was off his guard,
and shot him through the heart. The
tramp then escaped back into Arkansas,
where the Sheriff and eight men finally
ran him down at the house Of an old man,
supposed to be his father. They called out
from the house that they surrendered, but
when the thief appeared in the door, the
Sheriff's party and the murderer opened
fire simultaneously. The bullets caused
the dust to fly from his clothes, but he
was not fatally wounded. He returned the
fire with a pistol in each hand, and while
they were reloading he took to the fields.
The posse followed him, and firing another
volley, brought him to the ground ap-
p~arently dead; but when one of the party,
a Mr.. Jones, went up to take a look at the
most daring man that ever lived, the fell
low pointed a pistol directly at his head
and fired, Mr.. Jones falling back dead.
The desperate was badly wounded in sew
eral places and soon expired. He is be-
lieved to have been concerned in the many
dark deeds which Of late have been perpe-
trated in this section.
