An- derson, who testified that he did not see anyone Bign the certincates or the Electoral vote while in the Governor's office at New Orleans; that Mrs. Jenks, plead ing tbe poverty of her mother, asked bim to appoint her brother, A. B. Murdock, to a placo in the Custom Home. Witness promised to do something for him this month, but has not yet. Murdock has a letter from Senator Keller? for some time requesting the witness to do something for him. A lone examination of IbewitneBs, re garding tbe operations of the Returning Board, elicited nothing new. In reply to General Hunton, witness said the Returning Board, as a body, never attempted to fill a vacancy with a Democrat. He had spoken to a Mr. Smith, at present reporter on the New OrleanB Democrat, about accepting an appointment on the Board, but be refused because be bad signed bis protest. Never heard he was killed, as judge Campbell had testified, because he was supposed to have bad the nnerman letter on his person. IhomasH. Jenks testified that be bad never made an affidavit similar to the one submitted before tbe Louisianasub-committee yesterday, and in the handwriting of James E, Anderson; never saw Notary Seymour in New Orleans, before whom the affidavit appears to have been made. James K. Anderson, asking permitBion to explain, stated that on the 11th of May he met Jenks in the strcof, and as he (Anderson) was going to leave for the North at 2 p. m., Jenks requested him to use his influence, toward Becuring him a position in Washington, and after some conversation, Jenks went with witness to his office in the CuBtom ilouae. and dic tated the affidavit in question, and he (Anderson) copied it, and then they went lo Notary Seymour's office and Jenks swore to the document. The purpose of making the affidavit was to aid Anderson in securing Jenks a position. Anderson was to ahow the affidavit to Matthews and endeavor to secure him an appointment on the strength of it. mile Li. wener, brother oi JJaniei Weber, was sworn, Desiring to read a statement of his connection with the Republican party, Mr. Cox objeoted to statements read being a part of the testimony and Weber retired for the preBent. 11, Conquest Clarke, former rrivate Secretary of Governor Kellogg, retold hie recollections of the signing of the elec toral certificates and promptly and impartially denied all knowledge of who ppended the supposed forged signatures. A secret session louowed. When the doors were reopened, Emile Weber was recalled and was given permission to read his statement, provided he would swear to the facts it contained. The statement wbb read and set forth that he had no personal knowledge that Dam- ooratio intimidation bad existed in the parishes of East and WcBt Felioiana. Hib brother Daniel Weber and James B. Anderson had informed him the two par ishes had gone fairly Democratic. Great influence was brought to bear upon his brother to make his protest, and he had been approached very frequently to use his influence with his brother to effect this signing of the protest. He saw An derson sign his protest, and saw the blanks therein. Afttr Anderson had left Judge Campbell attached the jurat to the paper. It was not Bworn to by Anderson. It was a notorious fact in the Custom Hous that Kellogg, Packard and others were pressing Anderson and Weber to make their re spective protests, John Sherman was spokesman for the visiting statesmen, and he (Weber) knew thai Sherman naa given his brother assurances which caused bim to allow his protest to stand after it had been made, Weber had, in conver sation with Sherman, explained to him that his brother thought his parish had gone Democratic and he was disposed to take back his proteet, Whereupon cner-man assured him hia brother would be cared for, and requested he send hie brother to bim, His brother on the day he received it, showed him the Sherman letter of assurance, and said he had received it di rect from Sherman. Weber was familiar with the handwriting of Sherman and wus satisfied the letter was written by that gentleman in 1877. The Sherman letter waa the subject of great mortification to the Weber family, and hiaBister-in-law, Mrs. Daniel Weber, bed endeavored to find it among the papers of her husband, which were packed away in two trunks and a large shoe box. Later in the summer of 1877, he (witness) had made search for the letter and had found it in a shoe box and destroyed it forthwith. Mrs. Jenks had been in no way connected with the authorship of the Sherman letter. About the 27th of November, it was discovered that only six of the Hayes electors could be saved, and Kellogg on that day remarked to me, "We are after all beaten." In regard to the agreement between J. E. Anderson and D. A. Weber, I hero state that I personally know that such an agreement was entered into and was substantially the same as has been presented. My brother was murdered March 7- In the issue of the Ledger, of which he was editor, previous to his death, he threatened to uubliBh certain letters and a state ment emanating from the State Auditor's pffice,and that ie supposed to have eupplied the immediate canse of his death and tb that extent might suggest its authors. Wbiie I consider Ibis threat the immedi- ate cause of his assassination, I do net believe that it would have ooourred if he had not made the protest, which deprived the people of their voles, and thus placed bimsell in snob a position that bu per. aonal enemies were encouraged to make Ibis murderous assault. In the Sherman report there appears a purported amdavit from me aa United State Supervisor, containing a somewhat sweeping allegation of intimidation in the parish of West reliciane, I declined, when requested to make an affidavit on this subject, to do so. This paper was- eaoseqaentiy prepared oy Jj. B. Jenks, and without leading; or ex. amining it, I signed il. I performed no duties as Untied mates Supervisor and should not have signed the paper if 1 had previously read it. 1 did not swear to it, but the jurat was attaohed by the Com missioner as a matter of form merely. I have no defense to make for my action, except to say that it was done without deliberation. Mrs. Jenks visitedmy sister-in-law in the summer of 1877, and urged her to hunt for the Sherman letter. Mrs. Web er declined to do so, or to give her any information whatever. About toe Ztn of May, she brought a letter from General Sheldon, offering to pay Mrs. Weber's expenses to New Orleans and Washington in connection with the Sherman letter, and threatening, in case she did not come, to have her arrest ed and forced to go. Mrs. Jenks and her husband have always called the paper the Sherman letter. Tom J en Us, in fact, has claimed that his association andco-operation with Anderson was such as to give him an equitable right to some of Ihe oenents that were supposed to De embraced t. 1 nave never beard it intimated 10ll KaTe n testimony, that Mrs. Jenks was in any way conneoted with the authorship of the letter. I have not, nor has any member of my family, sought to use this letter as a means or obtaining othce. I saw the members of the MacVeagh commission in JNew Urleans, and was in formed that money had been used to Be' cure the abandonment of the Packard Legislature by certain members thereof. I could tell something of the amounts paid in certain cases, but could not say who disbursed the money or who supplied it, I had two conversations with General Hawley relative to the recognition of the .Packard government by tbe Admin. istration, and he said that the President could not and would not recognise it He conveyed the impression to my mind distinctly that the recognition of jNich oils and the abandonment of Packard was a foregone conclusion, and that this question had been determined by the Ad. ministration before the commisaion left Washington. A letter was here shown Weber, which he identified aa having been written by himself. He then said : Gentlemen of the committee, I object to the consideration of this letter, or its publication as any part of tbe records. If it iB published, it will place me in a very false position with the people down there. and I ask Ihe committee not to allow it to be read for that reason. The statement I have made in there is not in accordance with the facts. I would like to say a word or two more about this matter. That ifi, at tbe time I wrote this letter, what 1 wrote was given to me as facts; but since then I have ascertained Hint 1 was misinformed, and therefore misstated tbe case at that time. The Chairman and other members of the committee, after looking at the letter. decided il was proper it should be read, and Mr. Cox read it lo the committee, It iB aa follows : State Benatii, 1 New OaLEANS, La , March 28, 1677. ) J. H. Wisee iiq: ! Dbar Cocsin Your favor of the 17tu in stant received enly to-day. In enswsr thereto I am sorry to say that though I had heard mv brother. D. A. Weber, casually speak of a cousin living in St. Louis, he never gave me any definite understanding concerning him. This is the only reason I can give you for not writing to you sooner. roe Times you reier to nag not yet rcacnea me. I should certainly be pleased to have the opportunity to reply to any erroneous statement made concerning the unprovoked and dastardly murder ot D. A. 1 have mailed to your address to-day a copy of the New Orleans Republican, containing a cor rect and uncontradicted statement of the brutal outrage. I also forward to your address in writing and in a separate envelope, the same statement, which you can use for publication in any paper. I vouch for the correctness of the same. 1 intended before this to have written another statement, giving more particulars concerning the affair, but have not really had time to do so. The asBassina of D. A. are at largo as vet. and officiating in the capacity of Nicholls ollicers in the parish he lived iu, West Feliciana, aad the Republicans, with terror im printed on their laces, whisper to each other, "Who will be next?'' We desire no new election in Louisiana. Wo deBire and demand the recognition of the legal and lawful Packard Uovernment, from which Mr. Hayes derived his title to the office of Chief Magistrate of this Nation. We demand it not only as a great right, to which we are entitled, but we desire it and demand it that we may have a Qovernment founded upon law and order, wherein all men, without regard to nationality or color, may enjoy the same rightB of civilization without fear or favor. Under a Government at thiB time in this mate, administered by Nicholls and his bands of as sassins and founded upon blood, there is not and never will be any security for life and property. D, A. leaves a wife and three little babies, the oldest only three years of ags. This alone would have been enough to have spared his life, had not the brntes been thirsty for the blood of innocent and defence less Republicans. 1 had advised him to stay away trom the parish until our aimcuiues were finally adjusted, but he preferred to remain at home in the bosom of bis family, whom he cherished and adored. HiB unfortunate fate seems to have been apprehended, as you will notice in his letter written to senator jncuiuan, oi Minnesota, toree aaya before he was murdered, and published in the same New Urleans Republican I send you. uur situation in tue norm cannot m understood, or I am sure the people would not tolerate the state of affairs' which actually exists here. One by one our white and col ored Republicans aro murdered nere ny aay-light, always by parties unknown. We have endured more than our Bhare of wrong and outrage, and unless the General Government comes to our rescue, we must either suffer the fate of D. A , or leave the State. This is a threat made against ub publicly and without fear. D. A's. wife and babies have moved from St. F.vilis to Donaldsonville. I have also been obliged, for security's sake, to move to the same place. We have abandoned all our properly and left it at the mercy of the brntes, If Packard is Governor, and I have no doubt of it, he will in due time have the assassins of my brother arrested and punished. If Nicholls becomes Governor and an attempt on our part to arrest and convict the murderers is made, we will, Deyond any aouor, suuer ueaiu, I have written this in haste. In my next, I will give you more details concerning 0. A's. death. With best wishes, I am yours. E. L. WsesB. During the reading of the letter, Mr. Cox examined the witness in regard to the various statements oontained therein, and the witness replied that all the state ments made were vouched for by himself a( tbe time from information he bad re ceived, and he then believed them to be true, but he bad since learned that he had been misinformed. He now pronounced the statements oontained therein to be false. He subsceaently stated that the statements were made for nolitical effect : that he supposed the person to whom the letter was auuresaea was going to have it published, and it would create a feeling in the North in favor of the Packard Government,The witness was questioned closely in relation to each clause of his letter and made the same response to all the statements therein contained, pronouncing them all false and written for political effect. The witness said he wrote a similar letter to Governor Kellogg, and that the writing or eucn letters was tbe stock in trade of tbe Packard people to get ud feeling in regard to the outrages in the South, in order to get the Administration to sustain them ae against the Nicholls Government, Mr. Cox said to the committee, that tne letter in question, written by tbe witness, had been handed bim br Nathan lOie, a member of Congress from St, Louis. Tbe witness read a statement, elvine- details of his brother's death, in which he had said the murder was not done by po litical enemies, but by personal ones. The witness continued : I saw Secretary Sherman write in the JNew Urleans Cus tom House once or twice, and I have seen his autograph in an album. Weber here desired to read his written statement upon this point, which he said he had prepared four or five days ago. an ticipating this subject would be inquired into oy the committee, ila was not allowed to read it, however, and went on to say : I remember seeing Mr. Sherman write in the Custom House either on the 151h or 16th of November. Garfield, Hale, Stoughton, Sherman and others were sit ting in different groups at tables in the collector's rooms in the Uustom Jlouse. I was right in with them. I was going in and out all the time. I went and talked with Secretary Sherman and read the writing he was making. Ail Repub lican witnesses were taken in there to them and it was in there they bad their conierences and talked together while was there. I bw Mr. Sherman write very distinct ly. 1 looked at him lor a minute or two. On that occasion he told me to go and get my brother, D. A. Weber, and James E. Anderson. The statement contained in my written anewer, that I have Been Secretary Sherman write and knew his handwriting, ib based on these assurances that I have related. Without concluding the examination of the witness, the committee went into executive session, and after, adjourned until Wednesday. TUo Potter Sab-Committee. New Orleans. July 2. John Devon shire, Clerk of the United States District Court, was Bworn and produced three sealed envelopes said to contain copies of Ihe certincates or electors, etc, which are signed in duplicate, the law requiring one set to be filed in the office of the District Court, one to be forwarded by mail, the other by messenger to the President of the Hen ale. The witness etatcd that the envelopes had been kept in the safe since they were deposited; had not been withdrawn, though application for the withdrawal of the Brut set filed by Republicans had been made to Judge Billings. Witness was present, but there were bo many persons iu the office at the time be could not Btate who made the application for the withdrawal, but heard tho Judge refuse to allow Ihe withdrawal. After examining the envelopes, the committee required witness to open them. They contained, first, the first set of papers sent to Washington by the Republican electors; sec ond, those sent by the Conservative electors; third, those sent by the Repub licans in place of the hrst, which were found defective. In this certificates were for PreBident and Vice President together instead of for each. It is claimed by the Democrats that the signatures to the IbbI set of returns by the Republicans are not genuine, ihe committee took charge of the documents. W. A. Strong, Secretary of State, waa sworn by order of the committee. He produced all the protests filed in his office that were before the Returning Board relating to the election of November. 1870. There were no protests by Packard or nellogg or their attorneys. A large number of affidavits were made before F, A. Wooliiey. Clerk of the Circuit Court in this city, and bear date later than ten days after the election. Mr. Strong read the names to each affidavit, before whom attested, the date, etc., and delivered them to the committee. After getting through with the docu ments, he stated that the protests of Packard and Kellogg, upon which a large nnmber of votes were thrown out by the Returning Roard, could not be found. Cross-examined by Mr. Reed, the wit ness said he only knew from hearsay that there had been protests by Packard and rieiiogg. Many of the protests produced by the Secretary of State purport to be copies of the originals. Commissioner Woolfley has been sum moned and will appear to-morrow, the object of the committee being to trace up the original papers. - Judge W. L. Lyon, of .Cast Feliciana, testified regarding his efforts to secure the return of Anderson in October, 1876, to complete the registration in the parish ; had several interviews with nellogg, who promised to send Anderson back, and with Anderson, who promised to return and complete the registration. Anderson returned to the parish three or four days before Ihe election; not in time to com plete the registration, consequently there were some four hundred Conservative voters in tbe parish who had not register ed; talked with Anderson after he returned; he told witness he only got away from New Orleans by the aid of Colonel Pat-ton. He took a boat at Carrollton. Jenks had been shadowing him to prevent hie leaving. Cross-examined by Mr. Reed, the witness aid be would not believe any statement maue uy Auuerson unless corroborated. Judge Charles McTea, of East Feliciana, testified that after Judge LyonB's return to the parish and the failure of Anderson to return, as promised, he came to New Orleans to see Governor Kellogg; related several interviews with the Governor and with Anderson without other results than promises that Anderson would return and complete the registration. Grose-examination by Mr. Reed. In 1874 the vote in the parish was 2500; Republican majority, eight hundred. Anderson complained that he got no pay and aeemed anxious to trade; wanted Nosh's name put on the ticket for Congress. W. H. Seymour was recalled by Mr. Reed, The witness first knew Jenks in 1866; was a casual acquaintance. When he and Anderson came to my office to attest the agreement, Anderson introduced Jenks. I bad not seen him for four or five years; did not then refer to having met him before; afterward met Jenks in Washington, and renewed the old acquaintance; am certain he is the man who signed the statement with Anderson, Witness was certain the paperehown him in Washington, known as the Anderson-Nash agreement, waa the one to which he affixed his jurat, and that it was a double Bheet originally. Adjourned to 10:30. CONFLAGRATION. Brilliant Blue on tbe Missis sippi Elver. The Steamer capital City aad aa V levator Bae4 si arrow -Eaeape t Paaaeaajera One LifeLoat-Ta-tal Loaa over 900,000. Miuthib. TN.. July 2. About two o'clock this morning a fire broke out near the boiler head f the Anchor Line steamer Capital City, from Viokaburg for St, ijonis, while lying at the elevator here, and in a few momenta the whole boat was wrapt la names, the ofhoera, crsw and passengers barely escaping with their lives, leaving tneir clothing ana everything behind. A strong westerly gale waa blow. ing at the time, and before tbe fire engines ana lags eoaia reacn tne scene tbe elevator was en fire aad the gale drove the Hants through the building, where was stored a thousand barrels of oil, bagging and other inflammable articles, which canned such a terrific heal ae to aneedilr drive back the firemen, but not until one named Connors bad been dangerously burned. As soon as the fire was discovered Su perintendent Crane ordered the boat to be cut loose in order to eave the elevator, but the gale held Ihe boat hard against it until pulled off by a tug, when the boat floated down a hundred yards among some trading and wood boats and burned to the boiler deck, arter setting those boats on fire. The elevator was soon burned to the water's edge, and together with a large amount of valuable merchandise is a total loes. Despite the heavy rain which was fall ing at the time, the bluffs and levee were lined with people to witness the awful conflagration, which lit up the whole oity front. There are numerous conjectures aa to the number of livee lost, but np to this writing one body has been found, which lies on the deck of the Capital City, only the trunk being left, and thus far it has not been identified. One passenger was Beverely burnt in trying to save his baggage.Captain Crane thinks the fire was the work of an incendiary. The total loss will exceed $200,000, the greater portion of which falls on the Anchor Line Com pany, of St, Louis. As the books and pa pers of the boat and elevator are lost it la impossible to obtain a reliable list nf either losses or insuranoe. Second Dispatch.! Memphis, July 2 The body found on tne uapitai (Jitv this morning has been identified as that of Thomas Ewing, of Colfax, Indiana, by his aged wife. He was seventythree years of age, and waa returning home from the South. Cantain irane pui ms wue on tne elevator, when the fire was discovered, and told him to follow, but he turned back to save something left behind and was lost. Mr. Robinson, of Longwood, Missis sippi, was severely but not dangerously burned. All the crew are safe, and the only passenger known to be lost is Mr. cwing. the boat was crowded with passengers when she arrived here, but the majority of them had gone ashore. uaptain Urane thinks the boat and ele vator were set on fire at the same time, as he had examined the boat half an hour before the fire was discovered, and found all right, and the watchman, five minutes before the lire broke out. had Dissed the spot and noticed nothing wrong. The Anchor Line company carried their own risks. The oil on the elevator was in ured for $4500 each in the ImDerial of London and the People's of Memphis, and $2000 in the Home of New York.

FOREIGN. The Peace Cong-re". Beelin, July 2. With yesterday's sessions of the Congress, the problems presented by reorganization or Turkey in Europe have been solved with the dif ficult exception of the border provinces of ureece. uoe scheme ot the settlement proposed is to offer to Greece some rightB of supervision and control over West Boumania that is, Theeaaly, Macedonia and fipirua, as Austria will be intrusted with Benia, Herzegovina and possibly in Northern Albania. By thus extending the influence of the neighboring States over the adjacent provinces, Congress might remove the cause of future war. It is believed Congress will have completed discussion of the principal ques tions lo be decided by it by the end of this week. It will only have next week lo formally sanction the decisions of the committee of the second Plenipotentiaries presided over by Prince Hohenlohe, which commenced a series of Dreliminarv deliberations Saturday last, It has been deoided that Servia shall retain Nisch but not Novl Bazar, the Kop-avuik defile forming the western frontier of the new territory. The Servian delegates declare themselves satisfied. The Montenegrins are dissatisfied, especially at obtaining nothing on the south. Antivari is to be declared a neutral port, but open to Austrian men-of war. The Journal de St. Petersburg ecoufs at the absurd proposition that the Congress will permit Turkey to oppose its decisions. Warlike Feollna; In Turkey. London, July 2 Dispatches from Constantinople speak of a warlike move-, ment appearing among the Mussulman population, but certainly not against Austria, dreaming only of the recovering of the provinces invaded by Russia. The fanatical portion of the Turks would readily yield Bosnia and Herzegovina to Austria on condition that that Power at the same time occupy Servia and Montenegro, so as to leave the hands of the Porte free to wrestle with its chief antagonist.Arrest of Fesaler. the Defaulting Treasurer. London, Out., July 2. George Fesaler, the absconding County Treasurer, of Canton, Ohio, was arrested at Hamilton and brought here last night, on a charge of bringing stolen goods Into the ccuntry. Resignation of the Oreok ministry. Athens, July 2. The Greek Ministry has resigned in consequence of objection by the Premier to some promotions made by the Minister of War. King George has not yet accepted their resignations. Hlollng at Marseilles. PABTS, July 2. Slight rioting has been going on at Marseilles for some days past in consequence of the recent attempt of tne Ultramontane to get up political demonstration by decorating the statu of the former Bishop.

Putinbay, July 2 The HuDerinten. dents' section of the Ohio Teachers' Asso ciation met to-day, with the largest at tendance on record. The inaugural address, by President Walker, of Lima, ably discussed the High School question. The paper by Dr. Hancock, of Dayton concerning the studies below the High School, provoked strong dissent by Mr. Furnies, of Hughes High School, of Cin cinnati, who said that arithmetic and technical grammar were taking the time of other etudiea of more importace; that science snouiu De substituted, bix month's of the study fitting a grown boy for busi ness in arithmetic. Mr. Hancock's positions were sustained by Profeasor Tappap and others, who asserted that we have now very nearly the right course of study. In the afternoon, the Bubject "The High School Diploma, a Voucher for What ?" was ably handled by Professor C. R. Stunts, of Cincinnati, who held that the High School should tend to meet the de mands of the time for a technical education, and that the diploma should mean thorough work and finish in a fixed course. Ihe discussion, which was ted by Profeasor Rowe, of 8teubenville,Bhow-ed that the teachers present were willing to go before the people, and tax payers with the High Schools, ae they are not lowering the flag an inch. The subject concerning a High School coureo of study, by Prof. E. M. Avery, of Cleveland, finished the High School fu neral, and led to a very spirited speech by Prof. Cook, of Columbus, The prevailing sentiment of the sneak ers showed a willingness to receive criti cism and as determined a disposition to resist unjust assault. CRIME AND CASUALTY. Arrested on a Charge of Embemile- meat. Omaha, Nm , July 2. Complaint was mane to-day uy united mates Uistnct Attorney Nevitte against H. A. Newman. late Collector of Internal Revenue, Dis trict oi fieoraska, John ttoDerts and W. R. Bartlett, Deputy Collectors. Butler ib charged with the embezalement of thirtytwo hundred dollars. Newman and Roberts are charged with knowing the fact, and from withholding the enme from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, for the purpose of shielding Bartlett. The latter returned the money subsequently and Newman's accounte are all Btraight, the Government not losing a dollar. Newmnn and Roberta were arrested to-day, waived examination and gave nominal bonds. Bartlett iB now in Michigan. He will be arrested as Boon as pos sible. Sympathy here is strong for New man, and his violation of the law was prompted by pity for Bartlett, whose wife wae very ill at the time. The exposure then might have caused her death and as full restitution since has been made to the Government, it is here considered very doubtful whether the grand jury will bring indictments against Newman and Roberts under the foregoing circumstances.

The Secret Service agents of the Government are busily engaged in their efforts to arrest counterfeiters of silver dollars and subsidiary coins. The amount of these and their increase is beginning to alarm the Secretary of the Treasury. i ne spurious coins manufactured by the Eleeon process are regarded as the moBt dangerouB. They have the appearance and ring, and only lack the weight of tne genuine. Block tin, glass and antimony are said to constitute the other counterfeils. A dispatch from San Buenaventura, California, of the 231 contains the following : An immense cloud burst occurred last night in the mountains northeast of this town. About 8 o'clock this morning the Ventura river suddenly rose five feet, and continued nearly all day to pour down a torrent of mud and water. So great was the discharge that the Pacific ocean was discolored for six miles. The Santa Clara river, only six miles off. was not affected. The discharge from the ormer stream seemed to be hair clay. Id view of the urgent demand for troops for service on the plains, orders have been issued on the various recruiting officers to hasten as far as practicable enlistments. In order to bring up the numerical force of the army to twentyfive thousand men, the aggregate number authorized by law, by direction of the Secretary of War, regiments in the Indian country engaged in active operations are to be raised to the maximum strength, while such regiments as ars retained on garrison duty at the various sea coast fortifications are to be reduced below the minimum.

Tbe Lively Day of the Month In Madison Clonntr faille Salea and Politics-Taocnl Notes and Notions. London, O., July 2. To the Editor of the Ohio State Journal : . To-day has been London's big market day her regular monthly cattle sale. So far as the sale of four-footed kine was concerned it baa not been a remarkably heavy day, but so far as the gathering of Democratic cattle in the shape of Congressional candidates and their followers was concerned, it may be put down as a "large" day.. Here were ex-Congress. man Walling, of Circleville, and Judge Anderson, of your city, both looming (if they know themselves) rapidly to tbe front as candidates,, aqdjiictounded by their scores of advocates and trainers, who have never a compunction for poor Baber, lu lib abecuuv, uu,-7.t ui tho more silent and less harmless Converse. And then, there were our Democratic candidates for the oounty offices. They, aa I have before told you, are already in the field, and the red-mouthed work on their part is getting hot and still a beating. Your average Democeat to-night is ready to bat on from two to four millions majority in the next lower House of Congress, seventyfive hundred thousand ma jority in the Senate, and ss many thou sand for each county candidate as yon see fit to tell him he can't get. All in all, they feel 'appy. The showery weather iB a little dampening to the harvesting, but is in nther regards doing no damage. t Aoe wool cup or this county has nearly all been purchased the unsold lots being very Bcarce. It has aversged about 32 cents per pound. Prof. Reimer and wife our most thoroughgoing music teachers are to-night giving the second of their four annual exhibition concerts, one having been given last week, two to be this and next week. They are very popular and much delight our beet musio lovers, from the fine and classical selections rendered by their pupils. I said our sale of cattle to-day was not more than an average. The busy season kept many of our oountry people away, though the attendance from abroad was usually large.
