John Russell Young, the biogra pher Of Grant on his travels, pre tends that Grant knew nothing of the third term movement nntil he got to San Fraocisoo. He also pretends that no one bat Grant knows what he is going to do about it. Gen. W. B. Franklin, in a pub lished letter, says Burnstde was a fool and a knave for pnbiishinff Gen. - n Fortes wvivate dispetanas. it is ihouffht in Washington that Bora- Bide will call Franklin to account for his discourteous language. I TTF, MORNTNfl STAR VOL. XXV.-NO. 25. Grant will attend the meeting of the Army of the Tennessee, to be held at Chicago on November 13th. It is understood that it will adjourn to meet in Washington on the 19th, weh the Array of the Cumberland holds its reunion. Grant will also attend. On that occasion t ho Thomas statue will be unveiled. The Wash ington letter in the Baltimore Sun saysnreooonaW: "This occasion will also attract an im mense concourse to Washington. The ce remonies will be very impressive and elab orate, and the display, both military and civic, on an im posing and magnificent scale. The presence of Gen. Grant alone will, it is thought, draw immensely, in less tban two weeks after Congiess comes together for the long session, which will undoubtedly be prolonged until late in the ensuing sum mer. As the session will be the one imme diately preceding the Presidential election, and as tbe situation is such as to presage a contest not excelled in spirit and vigor by any previous Presidential campaign, tbe debates in the balls of Congress will be di rected to the same focus. Politicians in droves will be here) to counsel and listen to the disputant, and many others, will from time to time be on band to witness the forensic combats." The Louisiana Republicans have determined to nominate a full State ticket on a debt-paying platform. A Mr. Beattie, a leading New Orleans merchant and a Kentuckian by birth, is to be the candidate. Grant is their choice for President, and in a few weeks a full Grant delegation to the Natipod ConventlenAstill be se&cted. The canvass is to be very active and warm. The Baltimore Surf$ corres pondent from Washington writes: "A Republican ex-member of Congress from Louisiana said to Secretary Sherman to-day that if the Republicans wnejd spend as much money in Louisiana and sena nail as many speakers as they had in Obio.Loui- siana would go Republican by a bigger ma jority tban Ohio had just gone. He told secretary ner man in at ueougm to go nim self down to Louisiana and take part in the campaign. Mr. Sherman said he would like to go, but could cot, on account of his engagements to speak in rvew York, lie inquired bow be would be received in Loui siana, and was told thai be would meet with such an ovation as bo bad never bad in bis life." Governor Jarvis made a brief speech at the meeting of the thirteen Governors in Philadelphia, in second ing the resolutions relative to the York tow n celebration, introduced by Mr. Gteitnfth, of iepifoim Virgin ian. We find the outline of the re marks thus reported-in a special to the Richmond Dispatch: "Governor Jarvis. ib seconding the res olutions, said that coating from a State that had drafted tbe first Declaration of Inde pendence, he but reflected the unanimous . . . i . d.i ii eniimeni oi nis people mai mia ceievnuiun mieht be a grand success. One hundred years ago but one sentiment animated the people of this country, and that was a de Sire for the success of tbe struggle in which they were engaged, and be hoped that now, as one united country, we would do what we could to obliterate tbe bitter memories of tbe past, and to make the stars and stripes float over not only a prosperous, but united country." General Mite and Major Atom are in Richmond. The General is a man of vast proportions. He jnakes the beam kiok at nine pounds. He is a veteran of many years, harvinn -at tained to his fifteenth year. The "Majah" is a veteran too, and won bis spars since the "late onpleasant ness." He has arrived at his tenth year, and, although the junior of the General, goes his nine pounds and three better. Altogether it is a heavy team. The General expects to be in Grant's Cabinet. Tbe "Majah" is on furlough at present, bat if the Utes do not behave themselves he will "take a hand." Dun, Barker A Co.'eeiroular shows that for the last quarter there were 1,262 failures, with liabilities aggre gating $15,275,550, against 2,853 fail ares, aggregating $66,378,363, for the corresponding time of last year. For the nine months of 1879 the total failures are 5,320, representing $81, 054,940 liabilities, against 8,678 fail ures, with liabilities of $197,211,129, for the first- nine months of 1878. This shows a great redaction in fall ares. The outlook is encouraging The panic is over and we may expect steady bat gradual improvement. The Southern Republicans in Wash ington have again met. They are preparing to organize thoroughly for the Presidential campaign. They de clare they are not office-seekers, bat about two-thirds of them are office holders. They have sought and found., They expect to be a anil in the support of sane man for Presi dent. .-Li - And now Speaker Randall denies that he said anything like "that the tide seems to be running for the Re publicans, &c." He said no such thing, bnt he thinks Thurman, Hen dricks, Swing and tbe other West- i em fellers may now take oac seats. WILMINGTON, The week before the election the New York Democrats will have a grand demonstration in the Academy of Music, when Mr. Tilden is to speak. This movement is intended as an effort to overcome the Kelly bolt, to help the old man get the no mination for President, and to get the start of Bayard, who is the only man he is said to dread. Such is the programme. la the bottom about to fall eat of Massachusetts? If tbe decrease in wealth continues much farther it will be as bad off as a Southern State was after the oarpet-baggers had plucked it. The total valuation of the State. of Massachusetts is $1,511,812,565, nearly $50,000,000 less than last year and $250,000,000 less than three years ago. The boom of good times is said to have struck Washington and there in great demand for first-class houses. Under Grant the demand Wm for firtt-olass people.

When the first chamber explodes the flame burns the wad and fires the second, which is followed by tbe third and so on. He prefers, however, a shell holding only two balls .

Tbe Raleigh Observer says there were 10,000 persons present at the Fair on Thursday. The attendance was small on Friday. It says: "There was. nothing lacking, in either the quantity or quality of the display, or in the attendance, to make tbe State Fair of 1879 memorable. The love of the Fair is very deeply seated in the affections of the people, after all that has been said. The citizens of Raleigh are entitled to the meed of praise for their efforts to make tbe Fair an assured success.

Miss Richmond's acting in the dual role of Vladimir and Fatinitxs was excellent, and, combined with her charming vocalism, de lighted ah present.

Mr. James Slur eWf. ,whbf jnasj.a member of toe com pany last season, was certainly highly amusing as the Guard of the Harem, Musta pha, and won much hearty applause, though we could but regret that the part gave him no opportunity whatever to' use his voice, a deep bass of extraordinary power and compass. The Russian General was in appearance and manner life-like aad natural, and Mr. Livingston Kent, who essayed the part.saug always with fine effect.

Spirits and Bostn . The advance in prices and the healthy tone of the market for spirits of turpentine and rosins must be encouraging to pro ducers and: manufacturers, and no less gratifying to the general public. An in-! dustry peculiar to this section, its activity or depression is reflected in s'hP small de gree upon the general business of this com munity, and, either directly or indirectly, all are interested. About the 1st of September last spirits had declined to 28 cents per gallon, and Sales were made of strained rosins at 90 cents. Yesterday our market report shows sales of spirits at 33 cents per gallon, while rosins are quoted at $1 251 30 for strained and good strained. An encouraging ex hibit, truly. i , . j Improving. We are glad to learn that the condition of Mr. Frank Williams, of Brunswick county, who was so badly injured on Thursday last, by falling from his grape arbor, an account of which appeared in Sunday's paper, has considerably improved, and that hopes are now entertained that be may eventally recover from bis injuries.
