York, recently gave his check for 81 900
to pay of the debt Of Grace Church,
Lexington, Va, which was erected in
memory Of Gen. Robert l.. Lee.
= General Smalls, who was refused
entertainment at the Revere House in
Boston because the clerk "mislikc . him
fof his complexion, has been avenged.
A colored post IF the Grand Army
s!opped its band on reaching the hotel on
Tuesday, and did not strike up until it
had been passed
= Cadet WHITAKER in his lecture at
Buffalo said that the theory that he mu-
tilatcd himself was evolved to save the
Academy itself, as storm of public in
dignatiOn was preparing to shake it to its
very foundation. He denied in the most
positive manner possible that he had
| tampered with his own ears
= Warden Croker, who has the mme-
date charge Of Guitcau in the Washing
would be or the scaflold, said: That
| shall be large crowd present it will
nerve hin to Spartan firmness. II, on
the contrary, he shall be executed in
that corridor over yonder (pointing in
the direction of the scatfold,) with no
spectators beyond the prison authorities,
he will die like craven, and we will be
compelled to drag him from his CELL"
= The Independent Republican lead
ers in Pennsylvania are not inclined to
consider the proposition made by Chair
man Cooper, of the regular State COM
mittec, to the effect that the two factions
submit their differences to popular
vote of the Republicans Of the State,
with the understanding that if Gen.
Beaver did not poll five times as many
votes Us the Independent ticket the Reg
ulars would withdraw their nominations,
provided that if he did not poll that
many votes the Independents are to
withdraw their ticket.
= a special dispatch from Petersburg,
Va, dated June +, says: A destructive
hail and wind storm occurred this even
ing, extending from Halifax to Garys-
burg, \. c., distance of ten miles.
Several houses were blown down and
large trees uprooted. Matilda Gary, col.
Ored, and her two daughters, and s
yenrs old, living near Garysburg, were
killed by the blowing down Of their
house. Other members of the family
narrowly escaped alive. The hail stones
were rs large rs ones fists. 1t is feared
there was much destruction of crops.
Trains from the south have been delayed
by the fallen trees.
= Senator Conkling has had various
disappointments. Among them is the
disaffection Of Governor Cornell, whom
he was wont to regard as one of his most
81, .nk a..
New York Tribune, Mr.. Conklng, speak
nor Of New York the other day, said:
II am sorry to say that 1 think Mr. Cor.
nell will be the nominee" In further
conversation he is reported to have said:
"If tho Democrats nominate good man
think they will stand p good chance
of electing him this year." For once
tho Tribune and Mr.. Conkling seem to
be in accord. They both agree to the
probability Of Democratic success in
one Of the most important States in the
Union.
= The Pennsylvania bolt has become
one of the chief political topics. Mitch
ell is said to represent 100000 votes at
the least, and his following is becoming
more enthusiastic every day. Demo-
cratic success there next fall is a certain
" with decen, campaign. Sam Ran
dall is keen observer of tendencies, and
he counts on n Democratic sweep. He
is not much in sympathy with the recent
idea of nominating Hancock for Gov
ernor. That is the pet scheme of Wal
lace, and it is taking finely. Wallace
wants the strongest man to head the
ticket to capture the Legislature and
secure his own return to the Senate.
Randall aud Wallace don't pull together,
though they did shake hands at Cinciu-
natl in the love feast at the end Of the
Convention. If Hancock sweeps Penn.
sylvania he will go into the National
Convention with unequaled prestige.
Randall holds to Tilden with undimin-
ished nrdor, and would be against any.
thing that would injure his prospects.
He is nursing the Tilden boom with
great care. Wallace is keen manager,
and the danger Of tho Democracy is that
it also will split into rival factions.
Whatever turn the tide takes, Randall is
safe personally. He has the favor of
strong Republican influences because of
his sympathetic tariff ideas, and the
Democratic machinery in his District is
completely at his command. He is al
ready laying seige to the next Speaker
ship, confident, as every Democrat in the
House seems to be, of their majority in
the next Congress.
