THE IUEWB. Rook Island, Illinois, was visited by a terrible tornado on the 3d of June, among other property destroyed were seven brick buildings. A. Reed of lhe postmaster general's office, Washington, was, arrested last Saturday, charged with sending circulars to postmasters and others, in behalf of the Radicals, demanding as the price of their places. The Impeachment Managers are continuing their investigation and have examined witnesses from Ohio in connection with the man Wooley, held in custody for contempt, but have elicited nothing, excepting a denial of some of Wolley's statements. The Senate rejected Gon. McClellans nomination as Minister to England It is now supposed Reverdy Johnson will be nominated. but the opinion prevails that the Senate will refuse to confirm on the ground that Mr. Mcron, who has boon Secretary of the U S. legation of London, is well qualified, 't being not advisable to send a minister who d oes not represent the feeling of the domin-

ent party. It is announced that Chief Jus tice Chase, after omuleting his | court j t Richmond, will proceed to S )uth Cirolina to pro-,; i ovc: a s'ssion of U. S. Circuit Court, for that District. The Ze newspaper as serfs ti nt the rj inion idely prev ills i i Paris, that war will break out in Europe before the close of next autumn.

A dispatch from Oregon an nonnces the completion of the -telegraph from Portland to Dale’v on the Upper Columbia river. The event cance l much public rejoicing. Cilumbis and Suuk-a-rivers are so low that the boats can not. navigate. Petition* of some forty rail-

Nauseated Radicals. There is a wide spread feeling of hostility toward Grant, the radical candidate for the Presidency, that is every day increasing. His always having been a Democrat is a bitter pill, and they fear, if elected, A. J. will be repeated. His written confessions that be is no statesman, never was, and has no aspirations that way. point him out as dishonest and confirm the charge that he allows his name to ; be used as the last hope of radicals : to elect a President. The way and manner he treated the President, his previous course, all the circumstances taken together show that he was until recently in sympathy with the President, but for a con-

sideration was induced by the rad- ■ icals to violate a soldier’s word, : reveals the fact that he is neither | honest or trustworthy. His recent' announcement that if elected he “will obey the people” .show him to be a first class demagogue-— that he-has already dodged the radical platform. But the last and worst odor of ail, is that all poli- i tical wire pulling is for the benefit of bondholders and whiskey rings. I The combined dose is nauseating the people, and before November they will purge themselves of the filthy mass by repudiating the entire radical ticket.

For Penticton. The National Democratic Convention will soon assemble in the city of New York. The Democratic party propose to beard the bondholders in then - headquarters. They are going to nominate Pendleton beyond a pcradventnri*. and make his greenback policy the center of the platform. It is intimated that the bondholders will buy up the delegates and repudiate Pendleton and his policy, but this is only a radical tale. Should any delegate so far forget himself as to betray the people, it would be simply an act of political suicide—that is all. It is the correct solution of the financial problem, &nd the people will repudiate all others, no ipatter if sugar-coated with Grant and Cotfax, or braced with military despotism -centralization. They—the bondholders—may Buy up all the negroes,..lndians, Chinese, Hottentots and monkeys that can be hired in the United States fur a reserve, and they will never lie able to sustain that monster of iniquity, the rich man’s frieiyl and the poor man’s foe—the radical party.

Another Swindle. The bill appropriating 85,000,- I I DOO t j complete the Hoosnc tunmd ' passed the Senate Sattird tv. It ‘previously passed the House. — ! • Ifosbi.’i t ton <lispat;h. Here is another example of rad ; ical economy. 85,000,000 spent j upon a railroad for the benefit of ■ Boston, when our people areal-! ready groaning 'tn ler the weight l ,of taxes. It is not eno.igh that . the Ne v E igl.’.a 1 St ites Ivtve <1;« . ' eriin’uating tarl:Ts that .annuaHy 1 take millions fr >:n the bard fistc4 ; farmers of the West; it is not e • lio.tgh that miH'nxiaro bamlhoTlors are exempt from taxation; but thev must heap thia another 85'. 003.000 swin lie month? toiling millions of the West. Aid all this contrary t.y th? settled policy,of - the-Government for over seventv years. Th? pe »ple have a remedy in the change of the adininistra- . tion of the Government—politically—a id they are going to attend to that little matter this fall. ,

Indian Treaty, Cheyenne news of June Ist, is to the effect that th-at portion of the peace commission which remaineil nt F«rt Lurarn'e to efTs r-t a treat' with-Re-d-Gloud an l-his tribe, have succeeded in accomplishing their object, after considerable delav.—

jar Thirty seven years ago the Government deeded the Cherokees eight hundred thousand acres of land in Southern Kansas. In 1863 Secretary Harlan with consent of the Cherokees sold it to a Connecticut Efnniigrant Company, which sale was pronounced illegftl by the Attorney Gen and afterwards resold by Mr. Browning to a of Detroit A lawsuit arose as to the respective title but has since been compromised, and both con testents are using every effo.t to get-the Senate to legalize the first sale. As the tract in qnestion contains a population of SO,000 bonaflide settlers, with thriving towns’and the usual improvements, if not sold to the settlers it will be the grandest swindle of the

i age. The parties bes ire the Senate ' will realize some 872,000,000 in the operation if succes<tul. It re mains to be seen whether honorable Senators are purchasable. Individually it ought to politically damn any Senator, Radical or j Democrat Who would by his vote swindle honest labor of its hard ; ; earnings. itSTThe City of Washington held a charter election lately. The 1

city permits negroes to vote — Some of the white citizens vote the Democratic ticket, and the negroes barely carried the city. White Bads and blacks were indignant— White Rads made speeches to I the blacks inciting them to deeds lof violence. The result is men killed, men wounded, ail ofiLcrs ! mobbed for attempting arrests. — Radicalism is bearing its legiti mate fruit in Washington—it is ruled by mob law, and reconstructed negroes enforce it. set on and 1 encouraged by white Radicals.— 'a Where was the General of the army ? jtSFGen eral Canby has removed thirteen of the Charleston, S. C. j Aldermen, without assigning any •cause and appointed a new Board, among them seven negroes. It is i supposed an order has gone forth from the political managers at Washingt in to remove whites i from office and put in their places blacks to catch negro votes — which would boa good reason for removal for radicals. Radicals are going into the campaign with dead issues ; the people will however, repudiate them by meeting dhem with the I living issues—a uniform currency

A Disgusted Wisconsin Radical The editor of the Ripon Tie nretenf itire.— a newspaper with o consistent radical record, was at the Chnicago convention He was cnnsid'‘rably disgusted with the proceedings of that bodv, lint more especiallv with the nomination .of “Ulysses,” of whom he thus speak “As a Democrat, he his al vnvs been considered A No 1.

When the Pacific Railroad is finished, the tour of the wofld can be made in two months and a half. From New York to San Francisco will take seven davs; from San Francisco to Hong Kong byway of Yokohama, twenty days : from Hong Kong by steamer to Suez, thirty two days: from Paris to New York, ten days; in all. seventy five days. This can only be done, however, bv continuous travelling and successful connections everywhere. At the Grant Colfax ratification meeting in Albany. New York. Dr. Breckinridge made a partisan speech, in w'hich he alluded to the city of New York as containing fifty thousand Roman Catholic voters, whom he denounced as the cause of the radical defeat; and he said the State mast be. redeemed, even if to do so New York had to be burned to the ground!
