This Convention will be a gr?*t affair.?
There seems much more enthtotaam among
the Democrats than was manifested by the
Radicals previoue to their Chicago ntioii,
and there has I een no enthusiasm
naoifcsted by lliem vinoe.
Every State, we believe, will be fully
rcpreranted in the Democtatie Convention

and advocates the payment of the
puhlie debt in Greenbacks, a most wise,
just, and patrlolc meiuin; for even then
the Bond l.oldera would receive more than
tlie amount Miry paid for tlieir bonds.?
Most the public debt was orrai-d alim
paper una worth only on* half or one th'fd
of gold, and it is certainly outrageous l??
tax the peo| I* to death to pay these bonds
in gold, when the money that bought llom
was d-preciat''d parer. Wcf believe that j
the nsmli.|)'iiin of P?:?Di.eiwi would he the

would rally a larger popular vo'e on Ida

tho raco should not begin abroad, and be neglected

you will be Interested in a not# from me
again; for I eliali tell yoa of quite novel
event which came off Uet Wednesday :
Mr. Hunter had tome S7 acres of wheat
rea ly for the reaper. It wai eowrd Uet
fell by other haq^e than tUoee employed
for this year, and of eoune there must he
.paid ustre for cutting it, ar they were
walking for the third of title year"* crop.?
At the Uet Dietrict . lociion there negrors
voted for the Radical ticket, though they :
hud heen told the consequence of |fhrsti|ii?
a course inimical to themselves and employ*
era; Uiat there would bo little disposition
to employ enclt as showed themselves unfriendly
to lite prosperity of the country's,
government by thie principle, Mr. H. deter- |
mined to have white men to cut his wheat, j
and *o have an old fashioned reaping. Invitations
were tint to the differrnt fanners
and white laborers in the vicinity, to lie
there by sunrise to work, and enjoy n dinner,
Wednesday. Fright and early that
np-riiing. 1 rode over on horsi.-t>ack, to help
Mrs. II. with her breakfaet When I got
ih-r* It was a bury scene iti the fi. Id,
the jnrd and the house. The reefers
wore tilisv with their soother anil ilia
gentlemen lees accustomed to hard woik
* ere tying tlie bundle*; for in*'mice, MrHunter,
who you know haa a (till arm from
a bullet, and Mr. Caldwell, likewise. The
little boy a piled the aheavea in heap*, while
the old men ihoikd them L., Mrs. C.,
and I were invifd to help tie; but after
trying awhile, we very willingly retired to
our more proper sphere, the kitchen. A?
we peaked through the yard, there was a
-nvory smell of baiheoued pig and rnmton
in the house coffee, ham, biscuit, melton
chops, 4b\, vied with eacb other in tempt
iiiu us to breakfast, but n??, this time we
ladies ninal wait on the men. At 9 o'clock
I lie 28 men came in to hreakfis', and yon
m ay he sure they were hungry. We busied
onrselves at the side table pouring out coffee,
and than handing II, when the servants
were ol It-r wis* occupied. I think ' there
was about five gallons of coffee made; for
there w?r?. besides the '28 men. tedies,
children and servants, numbering 14 or 16,
As soon as the I reakfaai table was cleared
we loid tu begin preparations for dinner.?

Tha soldiers of the tegular amy in Washingtun,
maiding there with their families, reted,
at the late election, for the Dnnucratie
candidates for Mayor and Coaaeilmen of the
City. The Democratic candidate was eleoted,
and therefore Congress interfered and struck
ont the rotes of the soldiers, 150 in number,
and straightened up things so that tha Radical
was declared elected. It is generally
thought that if the soldiers had gone for the
Radicals, Congress would not hara intcrfared.
