THEN. Y. Times i'm an article about
the Greenback candidate for President,
among other things. says:
General Weaver, OH his part, went
southwark, like many another mex
perienced observer. calmly uncOn-
sciOus that he would meet any serious
opposition. He was preaching
change in the financial management
or the Governments change which
he honestly believes will put money
in every mans pocket, and q "chick-
en- i'm every poor mans dinner-pot."
He had heard and believed of the stO-
ries told of the tyranny and brutality
with which Southern Democratic ruff
fans repealed all political opposition.
He did not bring political opposition,
promise of the greenback. But
Weaver was most disagreeably unde-
ceived. He wasat once and Extensively
made aware that his party was not
wanted in the South. With that pc
culiar arrogance which distinguishes
the true Southern, ii was announced
that Viewers doctrines were Objec-
tionable, and that hisparty must wind
up its affairs in the country as speed
lily as possible. 1t was not Greenback-
ism, per sc, was Objectionable to the
Southern leadern that Weaver was
discouraged from speaking, but be-
cause his party, if he had any in the
South, would divide the Democracy.
With this intent, Greenbackism was
every whit as bad as Republicanism.
Being a prudent man, and DESTROYS of
living a little while longer. General
Weaver very prudently abridged his
campaign and came North.

We have published the following
prophecy on one or two occasions i'm
years back; but the frequent refer
ences to the singular production in
the press Of late. will serve As an ex-
cuse for its republication now. The
prophecy was first published in En-
gland in 1855, before the discovery of
America, and of course before the day
of the discoveries therein alluded to.
All the events predicted by the old
lady have come to pass, except that in
the last two lines:
Carriages without horses shall 90,
And accidents fill the world with woe;
Around the world thoughts shall fly,
In the twinkling Of an eye;
Water shall yet more wonders do,
Now strange, vet shall be true;
The world upside down shall be,
And gold be found at root of tree;
Through hills man shall ride,
And no horse or ass be at his side;
Under water men shall walk,
Shall ride. shall sleep, shall talk;
In the dir men shall be seen
In white, in black, i'm green;
Iron i'm the water shall float
As easy as i'm wooden boat;
Gold shall be found mid stone
In land that's now unknown;
Fire and water shall wOrders do;
England shall at last admit a Jew;
And this world to an end shall come
in eighteen hundred and eighty-One.

Grant Men Amazed.
Special to Boston Advertiser,


CHICAGO, Nav 9.-It is certain. from re-
ports up to the present hour (midnight) to
the Tribune. that the anti-third-term element
in Cook county will have a working majority
in the county convention tomorrow of be-
tween forty-five and fifty. 1t is further well
settled that the anti-third-term element will
not permit the election of single Grant
delegate to the State convention.
The appointment of delegates as between the
Blaine and Washburn parties to the State
convention has not been determined upon,
but caucus tonight was held to establish
this point without coming to any definite con-
clusion. A further consultation will be
held to morrow. The anti third term
men will . also strive to further
increase their majority by contest
ing two wards in this city where Grant dele
gates were returned, and wherein the most
glaring frauds were perpetrated at the pri-
maries. The State now stands eighty coun-
ties having held conventions) SO majority
against a third term Blaine, 255 Grant, 25l /,
and Washburne 80. This leaves lO7 delegates
to be selected, but as Cook county sends
nearly one-seventh of the entire State delega-
ton, or ninety-two delegates, the effect of the
choice here yesterday may be seen at glance
The result Of the primaries has amazed the
Grant faction. and the only redress left is to
do what they threaten-send contesting
delegation to Springfield

Fisk's Widow and Slayer Under

From the Atlantic City Review. !


Early last week an elderly lady. accom-

middle age, arrived at one of the principal
boarding houses of Atlanta City. The party
were from New York, the lady first men.
toned registering Mrs. Fisk. n. Y" II
transpired subsequently that she was the
widow of the late James Fisk, whose
tragic death is still fresh in the memory.
of many. Mrs. Fisk was quiet,
unpretentious lady, who seemed to be very
much attached to the invalid girl in her com.
pany. On Saturday afternoon there arrived
at the same hotel tall. well-built, handsome
man of about forty-ive years, who registered
&c. Stokes He is man of striking ap-
pearance, the mien and toilet Of the man be-
ing particularly noticeable. He was alone,
and inquired Of the clerk for a warm room,
stating that he was suffering from ill-health.
The stranger proved to be the slayer Of Fisk,
and unconsciously came under the same ROOT
of the woman upon whom he had placed the
widows weeds.
