MORRILL, AND LELAND OUT

Topeka, Kan, April 25. 1t is very
likely that Governor Morrill, will have
to make his fight for denomination
without the support or even the SYM
pathy OF Cyrus Leland. They came to
this understanding last night, when
Leland is reported to have said to the
governor that If he should be renom-
mated he world run 10, 0OG votes be-
hind his ticket, and likely be the
means of defeating the Republican
electoral ticket.
For ten months Leland has not been
an advocate of Morrill's denomination,
but until now mutual friends of the
two men have kept them on terms of
political friendship. Leland is said to
have stated, as some of the reasons
why Morrill, should withdraw, that
some of the governors appointments
were not satisfactory to the party and
it is said referred to NJ NJ. Beck and
Charles f. Scott as particularly OBJ
noXious to himself
What the governor snid 20 Leland
last night is not known, but his friends
say this morning that, in commenting
ON the subject, he declared that he
had entered the race for renomina-
ton and he proposed to fight it out

duced, was very warmly greeted. He
said in part: Grant returned to SER
vice in the United States army in the
hour OF sanguinary war, at the head
of regiment of volunteers. His work
soon drew the attention of his super

[Continued from last weekly ITEMS FROM THE STAFFORD NEWS LETTER.
Aug. 9, 1869.

1t is our intention to print under this head, from week to week, items of interest from the old Stafford News Letter.
 REoovERING.- NG.-Sergeant Charles War ren, of Company B, left at Newborn with an attack of fever, we are glad to hear, is recovering.
 Newton w. Smith, a son of MS Smith, :, of Village Hill, was wounded at the battle of Fair Oaks, and taken prisoner. His commanding officer writes that he fought like veteran, and has his best regards. He belonged to California regiment. SERIOUS AssAULT.-Mr. Matthews, a farmer of Wilmington, had an ugly scalp wound inflicted last week by heavy chain hurled at him by MT. Warren, brother to the one now in Wethersfield for wife murder. He was bound over in the sum of $250, Martin Hancock becom- ing security, we are informed.
 PIoNIo.-Our village was visited Tues day morning by merry party from Pal mer, among whom we noticed Capt. Blanchard. They camped out in q TO- mantle grove, where the famous Lovers Leap and other wild scenery rendered their stay pleasant, till interrupted by the shower, about one o'clock, when the party retired to the Springs House and had a merry dance in the ample parlors, to the music of the piano, concluding with a supper.
 FIRE.-The extensive roost or "hen- cry" of Joseph Chandler, Esq, was en- tirely destroyed by fire Monday afternoon. The flames spread rapidly among the dry feathers and numerous nests, so that be- fore Annihilator No. was upon the ground scarcely a timber remained. The damage was extensive, not an egg shell uncOnsumed, not feather unscorched. One old Shanghai escaped by ladder most miraculously, minus tail feathers and spurs, 8 dejected looking, forlorn appearing "cock of the roost" He has crOwed his last crow; Che has fought his last fight" and now with bowed head and sad countenance bewails his loss, and condolingly winks at Joe. Fortunately most of the hens were attending to ma- ternal duties in the adjoining garden, thus preventing a serious loss of life. MT. c. has our sympathies in the loss oi his beautiful hen-house and beauty-shorn rooster, we wishing him better fortune hereafter. We are pleased to learn that the mansion was fully covered by insur. ance in the "Hope" and the Shanghai 1T the Mutual Health Insurance" The cause of the fire is under investigation supposed to be from spontaneous com bustion, or a fire-cracker. Moral: Hoy suddenly our joys depart.
