visited our town last week in connection with the interests of the Carolina Life Insurance Company, for which he is the State agent. He has appointed Mr. Wm. B. Sadler, of Yorkville, special agent for this county, to whom applications for insurance may be made. Mr. H. M. Asher favored us with a visit on Monday last. He is the same rare bird that he was in days lang syne. His present local habitation is at Charlotte, and he is connected with the large wholesale dry goods establishment of Messrs. Wittskowsky & Rintels, in that embryo city. Col. L. M. McAfee, formerly of Shelby, ^ N. C., arrived here on Tuesday evening last, on a visit to his friends in Yorkville. Col. McAfee's home is now in Galveston, Texas. He has just returned to answer charges for ku-kluxing, aud under a late act of Congress, his case has been transferred to Statesville, j F where he has given bond to appear, with R. M. Oates, M. L.

London, Ontario, June 15.?The excitement caused here by the abduction of the unfortunate Dr. Bratton has been rather increased than diminished by the committal for trial this morning of J. B. Cornwall, one of the abductors. The investigation which brought about the result was begun 011 Thursday morning. The first witness examined was G. Manigault, who testified that he lived in South I Carolina and knew Dr. Bratton there, both L as a surgeon in the Confederate army, and afr* ter the war, as a physician in private practice. On the 21st ultimo Dr. Bratton came to the witness's house in London and requested the witness to find him lodgings, which he engaged under the name of James Simpson. He did not believe Dr. Bratton to be guilty of any of the crimes with which he was charged. It was a common practice with Southerners flying to escape military arrest to assume false names. He had last seen Dr. Bratton on the 2d of June. The violent means with which the abduction was effected were shown in the testimony of the cab-driver, whose vehicle was used in carrying it out. He testified to Cornwall's employing him on the afternoon of the 4th instant. Cornwall told him to drive to a rather deserted part of .1 .? i 1?..x 1 ine town, wnere ne met a uiau nnusc ucooilotion answers to that of a party calling himself Hunter, who has been staving at the Tecumseh House. The two held a consultation and Hunter departed. Soon after another man appeared, whom Cornwall assaulted, knocked down, hand-cuffed and forced into the carriage. During the struggle the man called upon the cabman to help him, but he refused, and in obedience to Cornwall's order drove to the station. Cornwall ordered him to drive across and as near to the track as possible, which he did. Cornwall with his prisoner got into a Pullman car on the 5:30 train west to Detroit. He saw Cornwall the next day coming from the station. A little girl who witnessed the capture gave sufficient testimony to show that Cornwall used chloroform to quiet the struggles of the unfortunate man, and an inn-keeper near the railroad track remarked upon his stupid, vacant look when at the station. Charles Hutchinson, a clerk of the place, an employee of Cornwall, testified that Cornwall had acknowledged to him his connection with the abduction of Dr. Bratton. Cornwall said that he had arrested Bratton at the request of a United States detective named Hester or Hanter, who had a warrant issued by the commissioner under the extradition treaty at Windsor, for the arrest of a man named Avery, charged with murder in the States. Cornwall also said that after making the arVia fnnnd Hp was thp wronc man. but that Hester took him in charge when they arrived at Detroit Witness stated that he had seen h* Hester's extradition papers. Besides the inr dictmeuts against Avery and others for murder and accompanying affidavits, there was an authority purporting to be signed by the President of the United States empowering him to receive the persons named in the indictments when arrested. Witness, however, did not think there was any authority in the hands of Hester to take Avery or any other man out of Canada. There was other testimony relevant to the movements of this Hunter or Hester at the time Cornwall was chloroforming poor Dr. Bratton, but it throws but little light on the affair. Qornwall pleaded "not guilty." He will be tried at the next court of competent jurisdiction, and the witnesses have been bound over to appear. . " . . -W,;. . , . ****-" TJrTT. R. Bratton's Case.?The New York Herald says: The Canadiau government and press are just now greatly excited over the circumstances uuder which a refugee from American justice was, as alleged, forcibly abducted from London, Ontario, by American officials, and carried to Detroit. The name under which the man was known in London is Rufus Bratton, and the officials arrested him on the charges UDder the ku-klux laws. The British Minister naturally made a demand for his return to the place whence he was carried off, stating that under the Extradition Treaty regular legal proceedings could then be instituted against him. The State department, of course, undertook to comply with the demand, if the facts were as stated; * ? f ST* .1 1 out tne nrsi cnmcuuy presented lisen wnen the attempt was made to find the whereabouts of Brattou and his captors. This element of mystery in the case tended greatly to complicate the matter, as it was impossible to say whether the whole matter was not a trick gotten up by the man and his friends the more thoroughly to throw dust in the eyes of his pursuers. It now appears that Bratton has been discovered in the custody of the North Carolina United States Marshal. A regular extradition warrant had been secured for the capture of a man named Avery. The Canadian officials delivered up Bratton instead, and hence the mistake. Bratton will be indemnified and returned to Cauada, and so ends the matter. ^ ? Tftb Greeley Mania.?The enthusiasm ; fjr* for Greeley in the South, which is difficult for 1 us to understand, is at once undignified and ! unwise. We are prepared to take him as a choice of evils, but not to fall down in homage at the feet of the philospher. To occupy any other position than that of constrained sup port, would be for us to indulge in hypocrisy, inasmuch as we cannot forget though we are willing to forgive the past. Amnesty for amnesty is right enough; but enthusiasm in this piece of business?for business it is?amazes us. But there is another consideration which should not be lost sight of. We had ample experience in the Seymour campaign, aud should be instructed now that our ardent support of any man at the North must be hurtfult. When hestitating Republicans in that section see that such couspicuous "rebels" as Beauregard, Mahone, Hood, Bragg, Gordon, D. H. Hill, Pickett and Admiral Semmes, are counted by our papers as in favor of Greeley, then they begin to apprehend a new "rebelto^ lion," and find themselves in a fit frame of; mind to listen to the war speeches of Morton, Logan & Co. Appeals to men's passions and prejudices are proverbially more potential than those addressed to their reason; and it is in this knowlege that Grant's advocates all, with one accord, endeavor to inflame the Northern masses against us by hideous inventions, all foreshadowing a new "rebellion," and a grand j St. Bartholomew's day for the emancipated j blacks. This is all absurd. None know this better than we do; but the people of the North have been studiously educated to believe that we are ripe for treason and stratagems. Certainly it ^ begins to look, in some quarters, as if a few of w our people were not indifferent to the spoils, even though gathered at the heels of Grant. We have correctly represented the temper of a large body of citizens at the North. They ! are honestly believing that we are meditating sedition, privy conspiracy and rebellion, and 1 when they see Mr. Greeley's name hailed with enthusiasm in the South they become alarmed. Let us, then, moderate our words and actions. We stand committed, as we understand the situation, to a choice of evils, and ! there can be no hesitation in our selection ; j but let us make this with becoming dignity. I Self-respect and sound policy both dictate this course, and if our counsels prevail, what we have to do in this canvass will be doue reso| lutely and in solid column, but without sound j of trumpet and flaunting of banners.?Norfolk Virginian. GENERAL GRANT INTERVIEWED. A man has been interviewing Grant at Long Branch. He was received with unwonted affability, and writes- that the Presidential family, on the present occasion, includes the President and Mrs. Grant, Mr. Dent, father-in-law, and young Ulysses. The other two children are in Europe, and the other Dents and Gen. Porter remain in Washington. The Presidential equipage consists of the usual number of horses, besides two magnifi cent Newfoundland dogs, and a donkey. The eyes of the President opened with amazement when he saw, for the first time, on the debarkation at Long Branch, this donkey among his stud. "Whose animal is that?" he asked the stable boy. It was one of Gen. Porter's investments, it seemed. "What does he want with it here?" further euquired the Presidential mind. The stable boy could not say. So the mystery remains unsolved. The reporter informs us that Grant drives out wearing a tall Greeley hat. His coachman is a fine-looking African, who says he can't vote for Greeley. The reporter called on Grant, at his cottage at 10, A. M. Seated on the porch of the Presidential cottage, was father Dent, reposing in his big arm chair. Mrs. Grant was present, also. The President sat facing them, and smoking a speckled Havana. The conversation proceeded thus: Correspondent. In regard to the Alabama claims, Mr. President ? They are off so to speak ? The President. Oh, no. It rests with England to throw overboard the treaty or go on with arbitration. We will concede nothing further. We have been willing all along to concede a good deal for peace, and to establish the peaceful system of arbitration, but we will go no further in this case than we have gone. Correspondent. On Eugland, then, rests the burden of the rejection of arbitration ? The President. If arbitration should be rejected, yes. We have nothing further to do with it than to send our arbitrators to Geneva, and let them follow out the line of e veil is. Correspondent Do you think England will reject arbitration? In case she does, where do we stand ? The President. Just as we did before. I see no reason to apprehend war in either case. Correspondeut. The Mexican revolutions are exciting considerable comment. The President. For all ray information on that point, I must refer you to the press. It contains all the news I get from that quarter. Correspondent. You have noticed, probably, an account of the recent sailing of three Cuban expeditions? The President. Yes; and although the attorney-general doubtless has some complaints or affidavits in relation to them, I must confess again that I have relied mainly for my resume of these cases also on the press. Correspondent. Regarding the Howard matter, what may I say about that ? The President. You know we have demanded him. Correspondent. Yes; will they give him up? The President. We take it for granted that they will. Correspondent. If they do not ? I-TT x r /-X l_ : .1 1? L-tiere ivirs. vjrani uecoiuiug uuepiy unciested turned earnestly toward the President and said, "Then you'll take him, wont you?"] The President. Oh! that's a question that doesn't come up for discussion yet. "It is for you to protect American citizens abroad," persisted Mrs. Grant. "There's no better way to do it," responded her lord, "than to demand their protection at the hands of any nation where they may be threatened with abuse. As to what we shall do in case Spain refuses to give Or. Howard up, that is a matter that the Cabinet has not discussed at all, and both of you ought to see plainly that it is not for me to discuss it here." Correspondent. Well, Mr. President, what ctayou think of Mr. Greeley and his chances ? ^-G^ut replied at once: "I don't think I underrate Mr. Greeley's chances at all. They all lie at Baltimore." Correspondent. Oon't you think Baltimore will nominate him. The President. I think it an even chance whether it does or not. It is likely to put up a straight-out Democratic ticket. Correspondent. Then there will be three tickets in the field ? The President. For my part, I think Mr. Greeley will withdraw if they do not nominate him. I do not believe that he will remain in the field a hopeless candidate, merely to give the Democratic party a better chance for victory. Correspondent. In case Baltimore endorses him ? The President. I hope it will. We will then know who we are fighting. It will be an open Republican and Democratic battle, and I prefer that sort of a fight. Correspondent. How do you like the substitution of Wilson for Colfax, on your own ticket? The President. The idea seems to have been to have two candidates from different sections of the country; otherwise there is no preference between the two men. Personally, I have a great affection for both Wilson and Colfax. Mr. Colfax, so far through our terras, has been a firm friend, and we have always entertained the most affectionate relations toward one another. As the correspondent bade adieu to the Federal family, the President said : "In regard to that Howard matter, remember that it is not our purpose to discuss what we shall do in a contingency that is not likely to arise. Wc do not admit the question whether Spain will give him up or not as a debatable one yet. The Cabinet has not discussed any steps looking beyond our demand for him. The correspondent thereupon drove away. An Unprecedented Wheat Crop.? From all parts of this county the gratifying news is that the wheat crop will exceed in quality and quantity that of any year for a quarter of a century past?even the famous j yield of 1857 not excepted. And what is true ! of Knox county seems to be generally true of I East Tennessee. The quality of the wheat is certainly excellent. Last year our wheat crop was pretty much a failure, as was the corn crop, and it is gratifying:, that with our present exuberant yield, the market opens so encouragingly. We have already mentioned sales of choice crops at $1.50 per bushel for delivery on the 1st of July. We hear of large orders from the North being received in our-city for East Tennessee wheat?some say for 200,000 bushels?but we have not learned satisfactorily that this is true. In our county we have heard of no wheat that has been impaired by the rust, and the fine weather now prevailing assures safety in gathering the grain ready for threshing.?Knoxville Press and Herald. | The Wheat Crop of 1872.?A despatch from Washington, dated the 24th instant, says: "The June report of the Statistician of the Department of Agriculture, now in press, is exhaustive in its treatment of wheat statistics. It is^ based upon reports from 903 counties, of which 199 indicate an average condition, 270 higher than an average, and 434 low ; condition; ranging from 100, the standard of a medium prospect, down to ten, and in a few ! cases down to entire failure, The State aver- j , ages are calculated not simply from the num-1 ber of counties reported, but from the com-1 i parative production of the several counties, j These 903 reports include a very large proporI tion of the wheat area of the country. The summary of the returns of area shows a reduction of two per cent from that of 1871. "The general average of the condition for; the entire crop is 94. The department estij mate for the crop of 1871, was 230,000,000 J . bushels, at eleveu and a half bushels per acre , j considering 12 bushels an average yield. The , area and condition of the present crop on the j I first week in June pointed to a product of I 220,000,000 bushels in 1872. The crop of j 1869, which was at 15 per cent, above an aver-; age, and the largest recorded in ten years, was I j 287,000,000 bushels as returned by census." [ ! Tiie Labor Strike in New York.?A 1 ' correspondent of the Charleston News writes i from Gotham as follows: j The labor strikers are not going to achieve the great triumph they anticipated. The "eight hours' demonstration" on Mouday was a failure. Instead of 30,000 men in line, ' there were less than 3,000. Many trades re- j I fused to join the procession at the last moI merit. Yesterday the cause was still further : demoralized by the caving in of the employ- j ees of Singer's sewing machine factory, over i 1,500 in number. These men returned to ten hours labor, their old hours, and abandonj ed the exaction of twenty per cent, advance j in wages, after having stayed away from work i one week. They adopted a set of resolutions ; ! humiliating themselves in the dust, which,' ; doubtless, was the price of their employers'! j forgiveness. The present strike will prove i only a partial victory. Some of the strikers ! have succeeded; others still hold out; but i many have returned to work minus a couple of weeks' wages. The sympathy of the community is usually with the working-men, but i the violence which has characterized the pres-1 ent movement has deprived it of much of the outside moral support which is necessary to its success. Still the great question is by no means settled. The working-men surrender because their ammunition has given out, but they surrender sullenly, and with a determination to renew the war at the earliest opportunity. Tetter, Salt Rheum and all Skin Diseases cured by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. The People's Stamp of Talue.?The Government endorsement, which legalizes the sale of Plantation Bitters, is not the only stamp affixed to that famous Vegetable Tonic. It bears, in addition to that official sanction, the still more valuable stamp of public approbation. This inestimable voucher of its rare properties as a Tonic, Corrective and Alterative, is of much earlier date than the Government credential; for millions of sick persons had pronounced it the Grand Specific of the Age long before Congress thought of taxing proprietary medicines. It is unnecessary to repeat, in detail, the properties of this wonderful Vegetable Invigorant. The best reference that can be offered to those who desire the full particulars of its virtues, is the General Public. Ask those who have tried it as a remedy for dyspepsia, constipation, billiousness, intermittent fevers, nervous debility, rheumatism, sea "sickness, low spirits, or loss of vital power, what Plantation Bitters has done for them, and be governed by the response they make to your inquiries.
