i^ain.-There whs ju«t enough rain All
a»y yesterday t« “j» ko »t VGr y u «^ Bnd
disagreeable day—not enough to havo Any
e jf ect on the water course. Wo nrn,
howovor, encouraged by the indications to
hope for a good deal more before the
wo&thorclears up. In that case wo shall
have n river at last and a lively time gen
erally. Wo already *oo, in imagination,
our friend Black, of Kufaula, looking out
from bn sanctum ut tho gently dripping
clouds with anxiety, and protosting, as
tho follow did who couldn't got aboard
Noah's ark, “ Who*a afraid ?—thcro's only
going to he a little showor 1"
Thk Dukk.—Full particulars of the
of this iH-fated rcttsol has homt recc.iv-
by the ilunletnan. Tins bout In ought
down the pusscngeio and crow oi tho lost
stoamor.
From statements made hy them it ap
pears that wlion she caught lirusho lay
alongside of the thoro and was socured by
hawsers. About 105 P- m., on tho night
tho 7th inst., the alarm of lire was giv-
, and before any attempt could bo made
get tho flam os under control it becamo
ossary for tho t'afBongors ancl crow to
seek safely on the shorn. They were? com-
.lied to cio this with torch rapidity that
uoy lost every article of clothing and all
their personal property with tho exception
“ whatthoy had about their persons.
w Whon the lire broko.out the Duke was
lying Iwonly-flvo miles below Dotnor
just above ltainwater liar, iMto lias
e drifted about one hundred yards
down stream; and her wreck now lies
at tho head of tho bar on the oast 6ido
of tho river.
Tho enuso of the tiro cannot he stated
with any corlainty. Some of the negro
dock hands state that it originated from
tho bottom of a lighted lantern, which a
negro wus carrying, dropping into the
cotton.
Fortunatoly ue lives were lost, and the
lockod party worn taken on hoard and
brought down by the Huntsman.
Thoro wore four hundred and thirty-
four bales of cotton on board, all of which
wns completely destroyed.
Tho Duko was owned by Cox, Otis &
o., and proved a total loss. .No iasur-
anco.—Mobile Tribune, Ilf/'.
Hard after the Potatoes.—Wo were not
favored, yoatorday, with a mammoth po
tato from any quarter. But wo received i
radish of dimensions nearly as groat a
our largest specimen potato. It was sent
toua by Mr. li. W. Massongale, of tho
neighborhood of Box Springs, Talbot
county. We cannot give its precise woight
or measurement; eutllco it to say that a
fence post taken from the ground could
hardly have loft a lurger hole. If any ot
our friends think they can make anything
by calling this radish to a showing, wc
trill make a fair comparison and report uc
cordiugly.
Tho large stock of horses and mules
that will be sold on Thursday, by D. P.
Filin, can bo seen at Uammol’s stable to
day.
Nu Registration.—It. is » inwtakon no
lion—which wo understand is entertained
by some persons —that a voter has to re
gister Ids name before he can vote in the
election of to-day. No such requirement
iitts been made by either Federal or State
authority.
Nut u Candidate.— We refer to tho card
of Judge Quin, declaring that he is not
caudidato tor the Legislature, for which
position some of his many friends hav
been urging him to permit the use of his
namo. ^
Speech of Judge Hi ghat a.—In hisspoech
Monday night, at Temperance Hall,
Judge Bigharn, nfior briefly explaining
and discussing the two other plans for roi
to rati erf—to wit: the one known as M
Lincoln’s plan, exemplified in the case of
Arkansas, Louisiana and Tonnossee; and
the one, known as tho Republican plan
explained in the speech of Thaddeus Ste
vens-presented and explained at large
tho plan of President .lolmson for our ros
loration to the full exorcise of civil rights
and piiviloges, ami argued that the only
true path of duty for us lay in amnesty of
feeling amongst ourselres and a firm sup
port of the National Administration.
In the course of his remarks ho refer
red to tho Confederate flag, when some
one i-aid it had played out. It has played
out, *aid lie, a-* tho oinblom of fraternal
strife, hut not ns a symbol of American
g’mry, Tho day will cunro when ovory
true ndntiror of courage and of chivalry
will read with joyful pleasure the poem
tint will ho written in praise of tho brav
and gallant men who boro “tho bonnio
blue Hag" through victory and through
dofeat, and when its praise will ho consul
orct by every American as the praiso of
tho prowess of his country men. Wo noed
tc cultivate feelings of fraternity. Th
xill not bo nuilured hy taunts, hut must
afiso from feelings of mutual respect, such
ti- was displayed hy Loo and Grant on the
day of the great surrender. All that he
Mid was received with profound atton
Hop, nu?l those remarks with prolonged
Applause.
Tho mooting passod oil’ very agreeably
except that some dissatisfac tion was px
pressed at the remarks relative to tho Con
Rrogsional test oath. In that connection
bn hold up the example of tho city of
linden in electing Baron Rothschild and
AVihrman Salomon, repeatedly, to the
British Parliament, until, at length, they
*wo permitted to take tho scats to which
they wore entitled, without submitting to
tho test oath at first required of them. It
thought by some that ho intended se
personal consure, whilst bo was c
d^ntly confining himself, as ho was
duly bound to do, t<» the subject under
Consideration. He, however, spoke firmly
of tho Congressional test oath, which ho
pronouncod unconstitutional; and argued
that a in«n supporting the plan of the Ad
ministration for our rostorulion could not,
•n his opinion, take it.

Anotiikr Mystkky in Jkhsky City.
Tho people of Jersey City are again ex
ercised over another mystery, which
threatens to create an excitement equaling
that occasioned by the story of the Imunl-
church. From a certain house in tho
Third Ward there emanates almost night
ly horrid screeches, yells nml groans,
mingled with the cry of murder, which
ularma the neighborhood. A few nights
since a policeman on tbut heat heard ihc
noises which wore so terrifying and indi
cative of the infliction of violence, that
o went to tho police station to stale th
case, and inquire if he would he justilied
forcing open tho door and entering t he
house. As no assistance Imd been asked
or, it was decided that the house could
not ho entorod.
What makes the a I lair more strango i
tho fact that tho houso is only occupied
by two persons—a man and woman—and
is always kept ontiroly clonod, not even
window shutter over being open tomt
it a ray of light. They Lave no inter
course with any one, and appear to h
no desire to form acquaintances. Tho
man goos out daily as if going to his
business, pnd presents no unusual ap
pearance. When ho loaves tho door is im
mediately closed and bolted, and is not
poned again until ho returns, when, after
his entrance, it is immediately refnstoned,
nd soon nfior llio noises commence,
Once or twico a person having on nigh'
>tbes only, has been scon to leave tin
houso during the night, and after going as
far as tho corner return and enter tin
houso. It is coitainly a very singular af
fair.

In view of tho present condition of our coun
try. tho result of tho late revolution rendering
our prominent friends ineligible to a scat in
Congress for tho prusont, 1 have beon induced
by lricuds from different parts of tho District to
becomo a candidate.
If I am your choice I will support tho rosto
ration polioy^of President Johnson, looking to
a complete return of the Southern States to
their formor status in tho Union. The only
liopo for poaco, happiness and prosperity is in a
free and cheerful support of tho union of tho
States upon constitutional limitations.
Thero is sorrow at the grave of a first bom.
anguish in the house that weops a parent dead.
1 lomombcr the touching lamontalion ol that
ardent and impassioned nature, Edmund Burk

wail of tho King of l&rael at tho death of a
