nwDlociu5 8,i;uauu) ior ine second
place'oji'theriational ticket"
U)i. Keogh If a Southern man ? is
nominated, Settle will certainly be- the?
one, although there is not a great deal of
probability that a Southern man will be
run.
Reporter-Do you think Settle is
Grant's choice?
I have no authority-for saying he is,
but the idea of the Grant men is to
eliminate as far as possible all questions
of North and South from the campaign,
and Settle as a Southern man. would be
very acceptable. '
Reporter Colonel, a good many Re
publicans in this city think that the
Utica convention declaring for Grant
is simply to give Mr. Conkling the op
portunity at Chicago to have himself,
or the man he shall name, nominated,
when the popular objections to Grant
fiud expression in the convention.
CoL Keogh That's all bosh. Conk
ling will be at the Chicago convention
to make a big speech for Grant from
the chajr. ; Xobody can count less than
440 votes whieb are already assured for
Grant I should not be at all surprised
if he was nominated by acclamation on
the first ballot, bnt, anyway, it won't
take long for the opposing delegates to
fall into line.
Reporter They say Grant can't carry
New York State, and cite the opposi
tion of the New York papers to hi
nomination.
Col. Keogh On the contrary, Grant
is the only Republican that can carry
New York. As for the opposition of
the metropolitan press, it is well known
that Dana s violence is from personal
considerations. ,The Times is hot for
him, and I have reason to believe that
the Herald is at bottom for Grant, and
that its pretended opposition is simply
journalistic coquetry, to draw out pub
lic opinion and preference.
Reporter Well, Blaine is the next
best man, ain't he?
Col. Keogh No. Republican senti
ment indicates Washburne as the man.
In the event that Grant is not nomina
ted, he will probably receive the Grant
votes. Rut this contingency is too re
mote to discuss Grant will be nomi
nated. Why, everything indicates his
strength. A third term don't amount
to anything; and the cry raised about
imperialism simply shows bow strong
he is. The other prominent candidates
all have organized bureaus in Washing
tonGrant has none. He is remote
from the contest, and all the noise for
him is spontaneous.
Reporter How goes the Sherman
boom ?
Col. Keogh He never had much of a
one, except among the officeholders, and
they begin to see how the cat hops, and
desert him. -
Reporter Do you think that the fa
vorite, Grant, can command the Ger
man vote?
Col. Keogh Why, yes. The Germans
who have been howling so, are all Dem
ocrats; and even if every German in
America was opposed to him, I believe
that even the Democrats themselves
would rather see Grant elected than
brook their dictation of a candidate for
the Presidency.
The reporter begged leave to think
that the Democrats would not only
brook it, but jump at it, and, growing
bolder, inquired if the colonel's busi
ness in Charlotte was political,. He said
that it was not1 but that he came en
tirely on bankrupt businesF, (Col.
Keogh is register in bankruptcy,) and
that he desired to return, if possible, to
Greensboro yesterday evening, on the
4 o'clock train. The colonel seemed to
be confident that the North Carolina
delegation would go for Grant in spite
of all that has passed.
A Poetical Tramp' Letter.
"Boss Strong," the literary friend of
"Red Buck," received the following let
ter from the absent poet a day or two
ago.
White Sulphur Springs, Va.
. My Dear Friend : "Panca -.Supra Re
petam." I will take a short review.
This is the mind vent of Cateline in the
Catelinarian war. The California belle,
Isabel Gazelle, my last best production,
brought me $2 in gold here. This is my
best lick. Its a three-line poem. I send
you the first lines:
Where the red wood towers
Amid the golden cowers. .
Sleeps ihls beauteous thing.
What think you of it? You can see
the high slang at once, I know.
Dear Boss, I wish you to write me a
short, wierd, mystic poem, and send it
by return mail. Do it in twenty-four
hours. Go at it in a maddening style. It
takes a wild tiger to write for our
American people at this stage of things
Peopie here treat me kindly in my
musical, poetic, oratorical rneander.
Dear friend do remember the poor ex
ile. It seems that God has ordained me
to be the strangest of strangers, but I
am smart enough to write a volume of
high-toned, embellished poems ; that is
my pride.
My beloved friend, St Paul's speech'
before King Agrippa was compiled
while in prison, and it does seem that
jeopardy and ostracism belong ,tp deep;
ary iriena ana you nave a lenuH wui'
passion for me.
P. S Alf. Tennyson gets $15.00 a
line for his poetry. We are. ail creatures
of imitation. I know yoa will see the
trick,
Is there no- pathos as well as absurdi
ty in the letter of this curious wanderer?..,,-

THE SECRETARY'S Vl'EWS.
AIT1EEIA EINKJOAWS ROMANCE.
A ST ,Ive and ReYenge, with a
1 : ' Sequel.
The story of Miss Amelia Linkhawi-
"j '"utowu, woo suoc ana Kiiiea Kd.
Hartman in the parlor of the hotel in
that town, was tried for her life and ac
quitted on the plea of temporary insani
ty, is still fresh in the minds of the
readers of The Observer. But the
romance of her life does not end here,
another and a pleasanter incident hav
ing recently been added to a career
which began in love and ended in trage
dy. During the period of her confine
ment in the jail at Lumberton, when
the only companion she had was her
child, which was borne after the enact
ment of the tragedy, she received many
letters from sympathetic persons in all
parts of the country; .Among her cor
respondents was a man named Little,
who is renresented '.as a custom house
officer st. tuned at Sullivan's Island,
near Charleston. He became deeply in
terested in her and wrote to her repeat
edly while she was in prison. On the
night the trial was expected to close,
he was ou the Island, and in attempting
to reach Charleston during the preva
lence of a severe storm, that he might
hear at the earliest possible moment,
whether she was to live or die, he barely
escaped being lost by the capsizing of
the boat. After the acquittal of Miss
Linknaw, the correspondence was kept
up, photographs were exchanged, and a
proposal of marriage was made and ac
cepted. A week ago, Miss Linkhaw,
accompanied by her child andoneofj
ner sisters, lett JLumberton and pro
ceeded to Florence, S. C, where she
was met by MrvLittle and the marriage
ceremony wasuietly performed. The
three, mother, child and husband then
left for Mr. little' home, and here the
story, for the present, stops.
meeting of I lie Board of Aldermen. .
The board of aldermen met yesterday
evening. Alderman Dowd presided in
the absence of the mayor. He stated
that the meeting was called to consider
a petition from the Carolina Central
Railway Company asking the passage
f of an ordinance granting them a right-
or-way. ror tneir track over A street.
As the whole question of the right-of-way.,
for. the railroad tracks over this
street was involved in some Confusion,
a commmittee of the board was ap
pointed to investigate the matter, in
company with a civil engineer of the
Carolina Central Railway Company,
and to report to the board this evening,
at 4 o'clock. Alderman Dowd was ap
pointed to represent the mayor, who 43
ex officio a member of the board of
trnsiee8 of the Female College,, at a
meeting of that board, which was calk
ed last night, to consider the question:
of cutting down the railroad embank
ment verging on the institute grounds
which it is anticipated will be necessa
ry if the right-of-way is granted to the
Carolina Central Railway.
Alderman Maxwell called attention
to the danger of pedestrians falling in
to a cellar under Spencer & Allen's;gro
cery store, on the corner of Trade and
College streets. It was ordered to be
fixed.
Chas. R. Jones appeared and present
ed petitions for the establishment of a
graded School. Consideration of these
was postponed until the meeting this
evening.
Being Rewarded for His Labor.
Mr. Butt gave another exhibition of
his panorama yesterday afternoon and
again drew first-rate audience, mostly
of ladies and children. He is to appear
in Monroe to-night It is said that the
panorama has cleared him over 61,200
since he left Charlotte a few weeks ago,
and he will make as much more during
the next few weeks.
