Why all this noise and confusion about Civil Rights ? From the simple fact that but few people have had the pleasure of enjoy- ing the thing, and all this unnecessary fuss is made by those who know noth- ing about Civil Rights. Now, here at ifttrpiaSe, we enjoy the thing to its full- est extent. We have it in our schools, and appreciate its benefits. We have it in Maryville. College, and like it there. It is true there are some poor white trash (as they are termed by the colored people), girls generally, who object to being associated and classed with color- ed girls, but do not object to mixing in the class with the colored boys. Why this is 1 cannot tell. The white boys do not object to any of the colored stu- dents. This shows that they understand Civil Rights better than the females do. Xow, we have our schools and colleges so arranged here thaf the colored people can have their choice as to whether they will mix with the whites or not. There is a fine college at this place, built ex- pressly for the colored people who pre- fer a separate school from tbe whites. But those who are willing to associate and receive an education with the whites are provided for at Maryville College. Here wc enjoy Civil Rights in all its imaginable shapes. It's a real shame that people will continue this opposition to Civil Rights when it is so 'nice. Now, here at Maryville Col- lage, where once some 800 students at- tended re gularly, we only number aliout 4 at present, and all on account of the mixed feature of the thing ; and only about ten of this number are colored. In the name of Yardly, the Chroiiiele, and President Bartlett we ask, why is it t Imply ? Let all who oppose Civil Rights send their children to Maryville Col- lege, and we will train them up in the way they should go. It is true we will not grant them (if they arc white) the same privilege we will tbe colored peo- ple for we compel the whites to go to college with the colored people, while the colored people can go to their own college if they choose, where they are not bothered with the whites. This is just as it should he. Loyalty and Civil Rights must and shall preavail. Ai:i'. Makytii.i.e, Aug. St, 1874. A Colored Muil Agent Killed While on Duty For several weeks past a colored man, named Thos. L. Ivey, has been discharg- ing the duty of mail agent on the south- ern eud of the A. vV. C. road. He has been threatened by various parties, ami Wits anxious to be relieved. He had written several letters to Mr. French ex- pressing a desire to get away from the route, as be feared for his life. On Saturday last as the south bound train ran into York station it was board- ed by a gang of masked men, who tiwk possession, placing the conductor and engineer under surveilanee, and order- ing them to back the train toward Hig-be- e river. The train was hacked up about three miles, when the maskers halted It, took Ivey off, and shot him dead. They then informed the train officers that they could proceed. Tlie murderers took to the woods and disap- peared. Ivey was formerly a member of the Alabama Legislature; and is said to hiva been a quiet and inoffensive man. CTuittnnoogii Tiitr, Sm. t. The Ciiu''rritl says of the outrage : Ivey has been about one year in the service, and made an efficient officer. So far as we know he hasalwnys attend- ed strictly to his own business, and the probabilities are that he lost his life sim- ply and solely because of his color. The Third District. From the Nashville Union and American. The Third Congressional District Is the largest in the State in point of terri- tory, embracing seventeen counties on either side of the mountains. In point of population it ranks fourth, outnum- bering five others. Yet the representa- tion at the McMinnville convention was a full one, evciy one of the seventeen counties being represented. This is a good omen, as showing that the people are thoroughly aroused to their political interests. Without good government wc cannot prosper as we should. The nominee, Gen. Dibbrell, is a gentleman of worth and public spirit, whose record is well known to all. The resolutions denouncing recent horrors were no less than we have the right to expect from every body of represenfative white men who may assemble under present cir- cumstances! TT may never occur to the. negroes to denounce the outrages and rapes committed by their race, or the infamous resolutions passed by last. May's convention in Nashville. Rut we expect more of white men, because wo understand better the precious interests of life and liberty that are jeopardised by lawlessness. On us depends the maintenance of order and society. If w? do not vindicate them our future is a diabolic eltaa . NKilTN!:." He Hands In His Checks. Cole's New York and New Orleans Combination set ins to be unlucky on its provincial tour. First, we hear of otM of his employes barely escaping death by the rapacious jaws of his pet lion, and next comes the ileal h of his monster sea lion, "Neptune." This famous old hero of travel died on Sunday at Colum- bia. The animal was a great pecuniary loss to Col. Cole, being valued at $10,000 actual cash. "Neptune" was the only sea lion in the country, his mates dying abOUt one year ago, one in Salt Lake City, the other in Chicago. He was Captured off the coast of Alas- ka by an expedition fitted out by this company, and has been with Cole's com- bination eighteen months. He lived longer than any that has been capttm-- d heretofore. The hot weather is assigned as the cause of his death. We understand that the management are in telegraphic communication with parties at San Francisco for the purpose of getting others, if possible. It is pos- sible thai this will be difficult to accom- plish, as we bear there an- - some statute, laws protecting them from indiscrimi- nate capture off the coast at San Fran-cise- o. Anxfirt'Ue ISonuer. A Marion County Fiend. JaFper (Tenn.) Herald, Augniit 27. We have just learned the particulars of an oul rage which was perpetrated a week or more ago, which, for fiendlsh-nes- s anc brutality, almost equals the Pomeroy boy in Boston. A little three year old hoy of Mr. Jones Beene wan- dered off from home and went to the school house where his uncle. Mr. Loulic Hei ne, was teaching near Battle Creek Mines. Mr. Beene started the child hack home, a short distance, alone, when he was intercepted by a negro girl about 12 years old, who lived near by, and who caught him and beat him in a horrible manner with a sharp rock. Mr. Beene heard the cries of the child and went ami found him lying on thu ground in an elmost insensible condition and carried him home. Some other ne- gro children who witnessed tlie assault, informed Mr. Beene what the negro girl had done, and the girl herself con- fessed that she tried to kill the child, and gave as a reason that she wanted to kill a white child. The child's face, head and back were cut and bruised In a terrible manner, anil was covennl with gore. The negro girl was whipped se- verely several times, but she remained perfectly obstinate, and remarked that she would take a hundred lushes sny time to kill a white child. The little child is improving. 3?" Uncle John Harper, the famous Bluegrnss turfman, nnd owner of Long- fellow, died at his home in Woodford county, Wednesday. He had been ill for a long time, confined to tbe room and occupying the very bedin which his daughter Betsy Harper, was murdered two 3'cars ago. lie was an old man, marked by many peculiar traits of character, and popular among stock-raiser- s and sjortsinen everywhere. The Harper homestead, near Midway, is one of th finest, demesnes in the worhi.- - it camn to the family with the early settlement of Kentucky, and has never been out of it, A more d place and a more ed master could not bo conceived. His estate is valued at over a quarter of a million of rJollapa. In Alabama they are getting ready for the election. The United States Com-rstBsio- m rs have opened court and aru t rying cases under the Enforcement act-Th- e first on the docket was that of a man charged with shooting the hog of his nraghnor, thereby infringing on tbe rights of citizenship. If this sort of thing is allowed to go unpunished, there will be a call for troops to preserve the peaco in Alabama, and who knows but what an extra session of Congress will be New York Tribune. A lady forger is the last Connecticut She robbed her family to ri rich her male friends.

On Thursday, the 30th ult., as we have already announced in these col- umns, George C. Harding, editor of the Indianapolis Siniy NcniM, shot Sol Moritz for seducing his daughter. Mo-rit- x will recover, but will lose" an arm, which was shattered by one of the bul- lets. Flora Hanling was a brilliant ac- complished girl, having a bright literary future lK'fore her, but who unfortunate- ly fell a victim to the wiles of a man who professed to be her father's bosom friend. She confessed her sins to her father and then took poison, her sensi- tive soul shrinking from the sneers of a heartless world, which would forever point at her the finger of scorn, anil speak of lrer as a lost and wicked wo- man. The following tribute to the memory of the dead was written by the unfortunate journalist in the presence of the dead body of his child. It is a wail of a broken heart, a crushed spirit, which cannot fail to touch the sympa- thetic chords in every human breast : THE BEItEAVED FATHER'S FAUKWET.L. Indianapolis nerald, Augmrt 23. HARDING At the residence of her father, No. 20 Pratt Btreet, on Wednesday last, ftVn Fixiba K. HABinyo, daughter of George C. Harding, aged nineteen yearn A noble life, full of promise, has gone out in sham". She loved much and she suffered much. Her sorrowful soul, released from earth-burden- s, has gone to meet its God, to lay before Him the cruel wrongs for which earth has no re- dress. Poor, fond heart, from birth, your tempestuousi beatings are stilled, your restless longings will trou- ble no more ! Hers was a joyless child- hood, warped and distorted by relent- less errcinostances. Her womanhood is blasted in the bud. Despite unfortu- nate traits and unhappy moods, in which slu- - seemed to move and act as if under some weird spell, her underlying nature was "noble, generous, unsclrish, with an honest pride which would scorn to do a mean action. The unhappy circumstances attending her childhood had impressed her nature with an ineffaceable tinge of melan- choly. She was desponpent always, rather than sanguine. ".Papa,'? she said to me once, when a Cherished dessre was thwarted, and I was endeavoring to eon-sol- e her, "don't distress youlself about me. My entire life has been a disap- pointment." Notwithstanding the som- bre tints in her nature, she" was at times almost unnaturally vivacious. But even in her most cheery moments an apparent Consciousness of the falseness and hol-lowne- of earthly things could be noted. Her deepest and profound est feeling, the one which was ever present and was never overshadowed by doubts or ob- scured by less worthy sentiments, was love for her unhappy father. This love had taken root in her infanlile mind at an age when impressions are easily ef- faced, but it grew without nurture, and seemed to strike deeper its roots and grow more luxuriant in leaf and bloom the more it was deprived of light and air. It survived absence, apparent neg- lect, hostile influences, and so fpoa as she was of age she came to the father whose love she had never doubted. In her religious nature she was pecu- liar. She had the profoundest venera- tion for Deity, and a sublime confidence in His justice, bill she had no sympathy with creeds or the forms of religion. She believed in the law of compensation, and having known but little save unliaH pi nests she believed that the future, either on earth or in heaven; had recom- pense in slore for her. She often jested on the subject of suiciile, and one occa- sion, being reproved anil told that Cod frowned on self-mnrde- r, she said, "Pa-pt- . T am not afraid of Cod." There were few brighter intelleets than Flora's, and her future was full of promise. She had a remarkably felicit- ous command of language, and was ex- ceedingly versatile. While she knew nothing of politics, her familiarity with recondite subjects was wonderful, in reasoning she was subtle, and in thought she was powerful and searching. She had determined on literature as a profes- sion, and had she lived would have made her mark in the world of letters. The crudest reflection in this hour of bitterest agony is that her father might have been less stern and more sympa- thetic in his intercourse with her, though he could not have loved her more. With two such natures an estrangement is apt to raise up an invisible but impassable barrier, and while there may be no spo- ken wortl of unkindness, the reserve is infinitely more cruel and cutting than words could be. The unhappy secret the first withholding of eontidenct caused such a feeling, and this was only broken down the night before her death, when, on her father's breast, with her arms about his neck, in heartbroken sobs she told him the dreadful story, and pleaded for his forgiveness, not so much for her sin as for the want of con- fidence in him. All was forgiven, and father and daughter once more recon- ciled. Even then she had determined on suicide, and that last, heartbreaking interview, so sweet to remember arid yet so sad, must be invested with all the sanctitv of a deathbed revelation. Tli rough that long last day of suffer- ing I watched with her, alternately cheered by hope and torn with the anguish o .dcnair, JUitl .witk.the fatsl gasp, as the suffering soul took its trem- ulous flight, two great tears came from the filmy eyes and rolled over the face, across which wastcaliug the shadow of the Death Angel. She has gone to her Cod, who will judge her not by the Iron rule which brings all natures to acosimon measurement, but according to her de- serts. God could not be Cod without being just, and with Him 1 leave my daughter. But" it does seem as if He should have some thunderbolt; red witd uncommon wrath, to strike the wretch who pursues his victim, with foul nnd venomous tongue, into th.- - grave itself. Oh, loving heart daughter soul-scarre- d wilh suffering sinful, yet pcre and white farewell ! O. C H. At a Troy hotel a young man and wo- man from up North called for a room just after the dinner hour and were ac- commodated. The young man requested that dinner be sent to his wife, and left the hotel for a few moments. K can-whi- le a waiter was sent to the lady's room with a bill of fare. She took it from the waiter, "danced over it with close scrutiny, and then jMtssing it back, remarked, "This ain't for me. I don't want it." Said the waiter, "Why, it's a bill of fare." To which the young wo- man, who evidently hadn't travelled, again replied, " Y-s- . but you've made a mistake. It ain't for tue, 1 kuow; I don't want it." Going down the stairs the waiter met the young man, and explain- ed to him. He marked off a dinner, and passed on. The meal was served, and shortly afterward the young husband came trudging unsteadily down to the office with, the salver full of half-empti- ed dishes in his hands and depositing them in front of the clerk, astonished him by tlie remark, " Here's the dishea. We've got through." . . The Grangers Forward March. WaMhiiigtcm Special to the Cincinnati Enquirer. Mr. O. H. Kelly, rXecretary of the Na- tional Grange Organisation at this city reports a steady increase of the mem- bership of the order and of the number of the bulges. The increase of the lat- ter for August is about four hundred. NOT SO FAMILIAR. Tlie election has passed, and the nu- - merous train OI ll iemllV aspirants are not near SO friendly as tllCY were. TIlCV don't walk a lialf mile across the fields to shake hands with the farmers now, hut pass them as in days ;nne by. ASKING FOlifi IYF.NESS. Mr. 13., of Claiborne county, formerly a Radical after tlie straiirlitest sect, and a member of the Baptist Church, at tlie first Conference after tlie election, beg- - tlpred Uie Church to forgive hitn for votinr the Radical ticket, saying that lie had re- pented of his sin in opposing ITam. The praver was granted. It is to tie hoped it is finally too late. ALL FOB CAPT. HODGF.S. By invitation, John If. Crrcfeler, Jr., addressed an attentive audience at Xash's on the evening of the Cth, explaining the main issues of the day to the entire satisfacf ion of the majority present. It seems to be the desire of our North Clinchmanites that Cruzier should be our next Representative, believing him to be a man of superior intellect, and all right on the "goose question,' At the same time, we .are disposed to support the nominee of the party, wanting only one Conservative on the track. Why not bald ft Convention, and see who is the man? arc also in favor of Capt. J. C. Hodges receiving the nomination for Senator, and assure you that we can give him a handsome vote over here. TIioi:- - HILL IMPROVEMENTS. Thorn Hiil is improving with a rush. Mrs. Kincaid is having a very handsome frame dwelling house erected on her farm. John Easlev, the bee man, is pre- paring his lumber to build a commodi- ous and fixing up his lots the bet- ter to accommodate .stock drivers. Dr. Wilkinson is building a very large sta- ble, barn and corn crib, all under the same roof, which, when completed, will be the. largest and most convenient one in the neighborhood We are to have a new store house this full,, wild a in w store. Several others speak of building in the vicinity. O ATE KEETBB CHANCED. Some changes to note since my last. The polite gate keeper, Lafayette La-thim- ", tired of the continual "cussing" daily heaped upon him about the noted Bean's Station black-jac- k Turnpike, has turned his attention to "learning the young idea how to shoot," at Adkin's Chapel. Rev. Wm. White succeeded him as collector, thinking as lie was a minister of the Gospel, that he could statu! t he cursing of an Outraged trav- elling public, lbit alas! for human spec- ulation. The Commissioners, for fear that his patience would not standi the test as well as did Job's oi old, have re- instated the former collector, 3fr. Lane, who has been used to it, and can smile while Satan rages. Some more poles and rock having been thrown on the moun- tain PASS, the public, (those whose lives have been insured, and have patent India- -rubber seats), are invited to try the ascent, fully assured that it is not more difficult tbat ascending 3't. Blanc, nor more dangerous than old Baldy. One thing, however, is necessary. The greenbacks must flow now, hencefor- ward and forever! as yon cannot ''smug- gle" through without paying "a, u go." O KITING MAD ABOUT IT. We understand that one of the patriotic, much-abuse- bad- ly paid Commissioners has become terri- bly enraged at the reckless audacity of your correspondent, ' W.,' for asking so many impertinent and pointed questions about tlie thirteen dollars of "Pub'.-.- " money. Mow, 'W.,' didn't you know that it wouldn't do for an ordinary pri- vate of the rear rank to "beard the Hon in his den," with impunity? that grave exceptions would be taken, and some- body's ''pheelings" hurt. It is well you quit the practice of medicine, and have tinned your attention to tilling the soil, or it would have been good-bye- , Tar- heel. Probably we will find, after a while, who struck Bill Patterson, and be thoroughly convinced that ' W.' can ask a few more unanswerable questions with- out calling in help from any oue. 4 HI i'l frIVIfF0f'' The citizens of Grainger were honored with a great show this week, at Bnt-ledg- something the gray beards hait ndver seen before; quite as exciting as1' the great .New York and New Orleans pit t concern. 1 mean we had a nigger lawyer. Why, he went in the bar with them big legal fraternity gen- tlemen, like out; of them, and made u monstrous effort in defense of one of his civil righters! The common question now asked is, "did you sec the nigger lawyer? A QUEER SET. You missed oie show by not being at the Turley House as the Thorn Hill del egation, headed by Bill Royal iuid lb d- - nog l on their way to Knovvi ib to tell what thev knew about Nc'vThan, or any other man. All got a ride on the cars at the expciLe of Uncle Sam, and never knew why it. was. Those Federal Court officials are a queer set. Won't tell us anything, nor allow it to tell. So we were .1 kind of a kit crowd as we came back. Makuiaces. Mr. John Helton t- - Miss Frances Cozart; Mr. Hanlgan Wolfe, to Miss Matilda Drinen. Deaths.

WHrrK&rarno Aug. olst, 1ST4. To the Editor of the Morristown Gazette : I wish to say a few words through your columns to the people of Hamblen and Granger counties, regardless of par- ty, with regard to Conventions. For the last few years, the little caucuses calling themselves conventions, have been t onducted in suth a manner as to thoroughly disgust every honest fair-dealin- g man. They have been nothing more than mere "cliques," brought to- gether In interest of certain individuals; and they have, regardless of the will of the constituancy they pretend to repre- sent, nominated their pets to office. It has utterly ceased to be a question of fitness for ollice, and the only question now is, which man can by wire-workin- g and maneuvering, get the greatest num- ber of personal friends appointed as del- egates to such Conventions? High-minde- d, honorable men stand no sort of chance in such a Convention, and the consequence is, that the very men who ought to be elevated to office are ex- cluded. The man who is possessisl of that high moral sense that should char- acterize our public men, scorns to en- gage in the low, dirty w ork necessary to secure the nomination of the so-call- Conventions; and should such a man dare to become an independent candi- date, he is cried down as a "disorgan-izer.- " Is it not time that this state of affairs should cease? It is to be hoped that the time will soon come when hon- orable men will stand a fair chan.ee; and when knaves anil tricksters Aviil no long- er fill three-fourth- s of the offices of profit and trust. I am not opposed to Conven- tions, but I mn opposed to the little "cliques" that have been calling them- selves by that name. There are several gentlemen from each party who have announced themselves as candidates to represent the counties of Hamblen and Gntinger in the next Legislature. As the election comes ofT in NovemlK-r- , there is no necessity for either party to be in haste about selecting a candidate. Let. the candidates come out and mix with the people, give them their views upon the various issues of the day, tell them what measures they propose to ad- vocate if elected, Are. This would give the people an opportunity to see and be- come acquainted with them, and of course enable them to judge the more correctly with Tegard to their relative fitness for the position. The candidate who is un- willing to give the people time to con- sider, but who wants a (Jonre,u4itn. imme- diately, simply expect to gain some un- fair advantage thereby. After the peo- ple have had an oppprtunity to see the candidates, and hear their respective views upon the issues of the day, let the parties in cvisry civil district in the two counties, hold primary meetings, where it can be decided who is their choice, and delegates appointed to cast their vote in a Convention. By this means the wishes of the people can be made known, and the men wIm ht rtaily the choice of their party would be the candidates. The 1st of October is early enough for a Convention, as there would then be am- ple time to canvass the two counties. I certainly tluak there should be a waking up on this faibject. Let Conventions be made better or abolished entirely. The people are getting tired of a little ' clique' of ten or twenty men in a county dic- tating to the rest whom they shall vote for. I should be glad to hear from oth- ers upon this subject, and perhaps I shall say something more anon. 8. M. IL Attempted Outrage by a Negro. To-da- y Esquire Winters committed to jail a negro named Henry Davis, to appear this afternoon and answer a charge of assault and battery with intent t;i outrage the person of two white girls, Lizzie Jalton and Mary J. St, Clair. The negro was employed at the Peabody and last night entered the raom occu- pied by the girls, who were also attaches of the hotel. He made an attack upon them, but their screams brought assis- tance and the villian was arrested. It is to be hopd that he will receive all the punishment which the power of the law can possibly inflict. Memphu Jjcetger ixttuiihig.

Why This much Ado About It?Why all this noise and confusion about

Civil Rights ?

From the simple fact that but fewpeople have had the pleasure of enjoy-ing the thing, and all this unnecessaryfuss is made by those who know noth-ing about Civil Rights. Now, here atifttrpiaSe, we enjoy the thing to its full-est extent. We have it in our schools,and appreciate its benefits. We have itin Maryville. College, and like it there.It is true there are some poor whitetrash (as they are termed by the coloredpeople), girls generally, who object tobeing associated and classed with color-ed girls, but do not object to mixing inthe class with the colored boys. Whythis is 1 cannot tell. The white boys donot object to any of the colored stu-

dents. This shows that they understandCivil Rights better than the females do.Xow, we have our schools and collegesso arranged here thaf the colored peoplecan have their choice as to whether theywill mix with the whites or not. Thereis a fine college at this place, built ex-

pressly for the colored people who pre-

fer a separate school from tbe whites.But those who are willing to associateand receive an education with thewhites are provided for at MaryvilleCollege. Here wc enjoy Civil Rightsin all its imaginable shapes. It's areal shame that people will continuethis opposition to Civil Rights when it isso 'nice. Now, here at Maryville Col-

lage, where once some 800 students at-

tended re gularly, we only number aliout4 at present, and all on account of themixed feature of the thing ; and onlyabout ten of this number are colored.

In the name of Yardly, the Chroiiiele,and President Bartlett we ask, why is itt Imply ? Let all who oppose Civil Rightssend their children to Maryville Col-lege, and we will train them up in theway they should go. It is true we willnot grant them (if they arc white) thesame privilege we will tbe colored peo-ple for we compel the whites to go tocollege with the colored people, whilethe colored people can go to their owncollege if they choose, where they arenot bothered with the whites. This is

just as it should he. Loyalty and CivilRights must and shall preavail. Ai:i'.

A Colored Muil Agent KilledWhile on Duty

For several weeks past a colored man,named Thos. L. Ivey, has been discharg-ing the duty of mail agent on the south-ern eud of the A. vV. C. road. He hasbeen threatened by various parties, amiWits anxious to be relieved. He hadwritten several letters to Mr. French ex-

pressing a desire to get away from theroute, as be feared for his life.

On Saturday last as the south boundtrain ran into York station it was board-ed by a gang of masked men, who tiwkpossession, placing the conductor andengineer under surveilanee, and order-ing them to back the train toward Hig-be- e

river. The train was hacked upabout three miles, when the maskershalted It, took Ivey off, and shot himdead. They then informed the trainofficers that they could proceed. Tliemurderers took to the woods and disap-

peared.Ivey was formerly a member of the

Alabama Legislature; and is said to hivabeen a quiet and inoffensive man.CTuittnnoogii Tiitr, Sm. t.

The Ciiu''rritl says of the outrage :

Ivey has been about one year in theservice, and made an efficient officer.So far as we know he hasalwnys attend-ed strictly to his own business, and theprobabilities are that he lost his life sim-

ply and solely because of his color.

The Third District.From the Nashville Union and American.

The Third Congressional District Isthe largest in the State in point of terri-

tory, embracing seventeen counties oneither side of the mountains. In pointof population it ranks fourth, outnum-bering five others. Yet the representa-tion at the McMinnville convention wasa full one, evciy one of the seventeencounties being represented. This is agood omen, as showing that the peopleare thoroughly aroused to their politicalinterests. Without good governmentwc cannot prosper as we should. Thenominee, Gen. Dibbrell, is a gentlemanof worth and public spirit, whose recordis well known to all. The resolutionsdenouncing recent horrors were no lessthan we have the right to expect fromevery body of represenfative white menwho may assemble under present cir-

cumstances! TT may never occur to the.negroes to denounce the outrages andrapes committed by their race, or theinfamous resolutions passed by last.May's convention in Nashville. Rut weexpect more of white men, because wounderstand better the precious interestsof life and liberty that are jeopardisedby lawlessness. On us depends themaintenance of order and society. If w?do not vindicate them our future is adiabolic eltaa .

NKilTN!:."He Hands In His Checks.

Cole's New York and New OrleansCombination set ins to be unlucky on itsprovincial tour. First, we hear of otMof his employes barely escaping deathby the rapacious jaws of his pet lion,and next comes the ileal h of his monstersea lion, "Neptune." This famous oldhero of travel died on Sunday at Colum-bia. The animal was a great pecuniaryloss to Col. Cole, being valued at $10,000actual cash. "Neptune" was the onlysea lion in the country, his mates dyingabOUt one year ago, one in Salt LakeCity, the other in Chicago.

He was Captured off the coast of Alas-ka by an expedition fitted out by thiscompany, and has been with Cole's com-bination eighteen months. He livedlonger than any that has been capttm-- d

heretofore. The hot weather is assignedas the cause of his death.

We understand that the managementare in telegraphic communication withparties at San Francisco for the purposeof getting others, if possible. It is pos-sible thai this will be difficult to accom-plish, as we bear there an- - some statute,laws protecting them from indiscrimi-nate capture off the coast at San Fran-cise- o.

A Marion County Fiend.JaFper (Tenn.) Herald, Augniit 27.

We have just learned the particularsof an oul rage which was perpetrated aweek or more ago, which, for fiendlsh-nes- s

anc brutality, almost equals thePomeroy boy in Boston. A little threeyear old hoy of Mr. Jones Beene wan-dered off from home and went to theschool house where his uncle. Mr. LoulicHei ne, was teaching near Battle CreekMines. Mr. Beene started the childhack home, a short distance, alone,when he was intercepted by a negrogirl about 12 years old, who lived nearby, and who caught him and beat himin a horrible manner with a sharp rock.Mr. Beene heard the cries of the childand went ami found him lying on thuground in an elmost insensible conditionand carried him home. Some other ne-gro children who witnessed tlie assault,informed Mr. Beene what the negrogirl had done, and the girl herself con-fessed that she tried to kill the child,and gave as a reason that she wantedto kill a white child. The child's face,head and back were cut and bruised Ina terrible manner, anil was covennl withgore. The negro girl was whipped se-

verely several times, but she remainedperfectly obstinate, and remarked thatshe would take a hundred lushes snytime to kill a white child. The littlechild is improving.

He had been illfor a long time, confined to tbe roomand occupying the very bedin which hisdaughter Betsy Harper, was murdered two3'cars ago. lie was an old man, markedby many peculiar traits of character,and popular among stock-raiser- s andsjortsinen everywhere.

Ocorge C. Ilarding'.s Tribute toHis Lost Daughter.

On Thursday, the 30th ult., as wehave already announced in these col-

umns, George C. Harding, editor of theIndianapolis Siniy NcniM, shot SolMoritz for seducing his daughter. Mo-rit- x

will recover, but will lose" an arm,which was shattered by one of the bul-

lets. Flora Hanling was a brilliant ac-

complished girl, having a bright literaryfuture lK'fore her, but who unfortunate-ly fell a victim to the wiles of a manwho professed to be her father's bosomfriend. She confessed her sins to herfather and then took poison, her sensi-tive soul shrinking from the sneers of aheartless world, which would foreverpoint at her the finger of scorn, anilspeak of lrer as a lost and wicked wo-

man. The following tribute to thememory of the dead was written by theunfortunate journalist in the presenceof the dead body of his child. It is awail of a broken heart, a crushed spirit,which cannot fail to touch the sympa-thetic chords in every human breast :

Hers was a joyless child-hood, warped and distorted by relent-less errcinostances. Her womanhoodis blasted in the bud. Despite unfortu-nate traits and unhappy moods, in whichslu- - seemed to move and act as if undersome weird spell, her underlying naturewas "noble, generous, unsclrish,

with an honest pride whichwould scorn to do a mean action. Theunhappy circumstances attending herchildhood had impressed her naturewith an ineffaceable tinge of melan-choly. She was desponpent always,rather than sanguine. ".Papa,'? she saidto me once, when a Cherished dessre wasthwarted, and I was endeavoring to eon-sol- e

her, "don't distress youlself aboutme. My entire life has been a disap-pointment." Notwithstanding the som-bre tints in her nature, she" was at timesalmost unnaturally vivacious. But evenin her most cheery moments an apparentConsciousness of the falseness and hol-lowne-

of earthly things could be noted.Her deepest and profound est feeling,the one which was ever present and wasnever overshadowed by doubts or ob-

scured by less worthy sentiments, waslove for her unhappy father. This lovehad taken root in her infanlile mind atan age when impressions are easily ef-

faced, but it grew without nurture, andseemed to strike deeper its roots andgrow more luxuriant in leaf and bloomthe more it was deprived of light andair. It survived absence, apparent neg-lect, hostile influences, and so fpoa asshe was of age she came to the fatherwhose love she had never doubted.

In her religious nature she was pecu-liar. She had the profoundest venera-tion for Deity, and a sublime confidencein His justice, bill she had no sympathywith creeds or the forms of religion.She believed in the law of compensation,and having known but little save unliaHpi nests she believed that the future,either on earth or in heaven; had recom-pense in slore for her. She often jestedon the subject of suiciile, and one occa-sion, being reproved anil told that Codfrowned on self-mnrde- r, she said, "Pa-pt- .

T am not afraid of Cod."There were few brighter intelleets

than Flora's, and her future was full ofpromise. She had a remarkably felicit-ous command of language, and was ex-

ceedingly versatile. While she knewnothing of politics, her familiarity withrecondite subjects was wonderful, inreasoning she was subtle, and in thoughtshe was powerful and searching. Shehad determined on literature as a profes-sion, and had she lived would have madeher mark in the world of letters.

The crudest reflection in this hour ofbitterest agony is that her father mighthave been less stern and more sympa-thetic in his intercourse with her, thoughhe could not have loved her more. Withtwo such natures an estrangement is aptto raise up an invisible but impassablebarrier, and while there may be no spo-ken wortl of unkindness, the reserve isinfinitely more cruel and cutting thanwords could be. The unhappy secretthe first withholding of eontidenctcaused such a feeling, and this was onlybroken down the night before her death,when, on her father's breast, with herarms about his neck, in heartbrokensobs she told him the dreadful story,and pleaded for his forgiveness, not somuch for her sin as for the want of con-fidence in him. All was forgiven, andfather and daughter once more recon-ciled. Even then she had determinedon suicide, and that last, heartbreakinginterview, so sweet to remember aridyet so sad, must be invested with all thesanctitv of a deathbed revelation.

Tli rough that long last day of suffer-ing I watched with her, alternatelycheered by hope and torn with theanguish o .dcnair, JUitl .witk.the fatsl

gasp, as the suffering soul took its trem-ulous flight, two great tears came fromthe filmy eyes and rolled over the face,across which wastcaliug the shadow ofthe Death Angel.

She has gone to her Cod, who willjudge her not by the Iron rulewhich brings all natures to acosimonmeasurement, but according to her de-

serts. God could not be Cod withoutbeing just, and with Him 1 leave mydaughter. But" it does seem as if Heshould have some thunderbolt; red witduncommon wrath, to strike the wretchwho pursues his victim, with foul nndvenomous tongue, into th.- - grave itself.

Oh, loving heart daughter soul-scarre- d

wilh suffering sinful, yet pcreand white farewell ! O. C H.

At a Troy hotel a young man and wo-

man from up North called for a roomjust after the dinner hour and were ac-

commodated. The young man requestedthat dinner be sent to his wife, and leftthe hotel for a few moments. K can-whi- le

a waiter was sent to the lady'sroom with a bill of fare. She took itfrom the waiter, "danced over it withclose scrutiny, and then jMtssing it back,remarked, "This ain't for me. I don'twant it." Said the waiter, "Why, it'sa bill of fare." To which the young wo-man, who evidently hadn't travelled,again replied, " Y-s- . but you've made amistake. It ain't for tue, 1 kuow; I don'twant it." Going down the stairs thewaiter met the young man, and explain-ed to him. He marked off a dinner, andpassed on. The meal was served, andshortly afterward the young husbandcame trudging unsteadily down to theoffice with, the salver full of half-empti-ed

dishes in his hands and depositing themin front of the clerk, astonished him bytlie remark, " Here's the dishea. We'vegot through."

The Grangers Forward March.WaMhiiigtcm Special to the Cincinnati Enquirer.Mr. O. H. Kelly, rXecretary of the Na-

tional Grange Organisation at this cityreports a steady increase of the mem-bership of the order and of the numberof the bulges. The increase of the lat-ter for August is about four hundred.

ASKING FOlifi IYF.NESS.

Mr. 13., of Claiborne county, formerlya Radical after tlie straiirlitest sect, anda member of the Baptist Church, at tliefirst Conference after tlie election, beg- -

tlpred Uie Church to forgive hitn for votinrthe Radical ticket, saying that lie had re-

pented of his sin in opposing ITam. Thepraver was granted. It is to tie hoped

it is finally too late.ALL FOB CAPT. HODGF.S.

By invitation, John If. Crrcfeler, Jr.,addressed an attentive audience at Xash'son the evening of the Cth, explainingthe main issues of the day to the entiresatisfacf ion of the majority present. Itseems to be the desire of our NorthClinchmanites that Cruzier should be ournext Representative, believing him to bea man of superior intellect, and all righton the "goose question,' At the sametime, we .are disposed to support thenominee of the party, wanting only oneConservative on the track. Why notbald ft Convention, and see who is theman? arc also in favor of Capt. J.C. Hodges receiving the nomination forSenator, and assure you that we cangive him a handsome vote over here.

TIioi:- - HILL IMPROVEMENTS.

Thorn Hiil is improving with a rush.Mrs. Kincaid is having a very handsomeframe dwelling house erected on herfarm. John Easlev, the bee man, is pre-

paring his lumber to build a commodi-ous and fixing up his lots the bet-

ter to accommodate .stock drivers. Dr.Wilkinson is building a very large sta-

ble, barn and corn crib, all under thesame roof, which, when completed, willbe the. largest and most convenient onein the neighborhood We are to have anew store house this full,, wild a in w

store. Several others speak of buildingin the vicinity.

O ATE KEETBB CHANCED.

Some changes to note since my last.The polite gate keeper, Lafayette La-thim- ",

tired of the continual "cussing"daily heaped upon him about the notedBean's Station black-jac- k Turnpike, hasturned his attention to "learning theyoung idea how to shoot," at Adkin'sChapel. Rev. Wm. White succeededhim as collector, thinking as lie was aminister of the Gospel, that he couldstatu! t he cursing of an Outraged trav-elling public, lbit alas! for human spec-ulation. The Commissioners, for fearthat his patience would not standi thetest as well as did Job's oi old, have re-

instated the former collector, 3fr. Lane,who has been used to it, and can smilewhile Satan rages. Some more poles androck having been thrown on the moun-tain PASS, the public, (those whose liveshave been insured, and have patent India-

-rubber seats), are invited to try theascent, fully assured that it is not moredifficult tbat ascending 3't. Blanc, normore dangerous than old Baldy. Onething, however, is necessary. Thegreenbacks must flow now, hencefor-ward and forever! as yon cannot ''smug-gle" through without paying "a, u go."

O KITING MAD ABOUT IT.

We understand that one of thepatriotic, much-abuse- bad-

ly paid Commissioners has become terri-bly enraged at the reckless audacity ofyour correspondent, ' W.,' for asking somany impertinent and pointed questionsabout tlie thirteen dollars of "Pub'.-.- "money. Mow, 'W.,' didn't you knowthat it wouldn't do for an ordinary pri-

vate of the rear rank to "beard the Honin his den," with impunity? that graveexceptions would be taken, and some-body's ''pheelings" hurt. It is well youquit the practice of medicine, and havetinned your attention to tilling the soil,or it would have been good-bye- , Tar-heel. Probably we will find, after awhile, who struck Bill Patterson, and bethoroughly convinced that ' W.' can aska few more unanswerable questions with-out calling in help from any oue.

4 HI i'l frIVIfF0f''The citizens of Grainger were honored

with a great show this week, at Bnt-ledg-

something the gray beards haitndver seen before; quite as exciting as1'

the great .New York and New Orleanspit t concern. 1 mean we had anigger lawyer. Why, he went in thebar with them big legal fraternity gen-tlemen, like out; of them, and made umonstrous effort in defense of one of hiscivil righters! The common questionnow asked is, "did you sec the niggerlawyer?

A QUEER SET.You missed oie show by not being at

the Turley House as the Thorn Hill delegation, headed by Bill Royal iuid lb d- -

nog l on their way to Knovvi ibto tell what thev knew about Nc'vThan,or any other man. All got a ride on thecars at the expciLe of Uncle Sam, andnever knew why it. was. Those FederalCourt officials are a queer set. Won'ttell us anything, nor allow it to tell. Sowe were .1 kind of a kit crowd as wecame back.

fromour jail on the night of the 26thnit., embracing six of the seven prison-ers tJicre confined. The seventh declin-ed to thus unfairly vacate his comforta-ble quarters and go out into the stormwhich was raging at the time. The de:livery yas effected by simply prizingopen the doors by main strengtli.

Something about Conventions.WHrrK&rarno Aug. olst, 1ST4.

To the Editor of the Morristown Gazette :

I wish to say a few words throughyour columns to the people of Hamblenand Granger counties, regardless of par-ty, with regard to Conventions. Forthe last few years, the little caucusescalling themselves conventions, havebeen t onducted in suth a manner as tothoroughly disgust every honest fair-dealin- g

man. They have been nothingmore than mere "cliques," brought to-

gether In interest of certain individuals;and they have, regardless of the will ofthe constituancy they pretend to repre-sent, nominated their pets to office. Ithas utterly ceased to be a question offitness for ollice, and the only questionnow is, which man can by wire-workin- g

and maneuvering, get the greatest num-ber of personal friends appointed as del-

egates to such Conventions? High-minde- d,

honorable men stand no sort ofchance in such a Convention, and theconsequence is, that the very men whoought to be elevated to office are ex-

cluded. The man who is possessisl ofthat high moral sense that should char-acterize our public men, scorns to en-

gage in the low, dirty w ork necessary tosecure the nomination of the so-call-

Conventions; and should such a mandare to become an independent candi-date, he is cried down as a "disorgan-izer.- "

Is it not time that this state ofaffairs should cease? It is to be hopedthat the time will soon come when hon-

orable men will stand a fair chan.ee; andwhen knaves anil tricksters Aviil no long-

er fill three-fourth- s of the offices of profitand trust. I am not opposed to Conven-tions, but I mn opposed to the little"cliques" that have been calling them-selves by that name. There are severalgentlemen from each party who haveannounced themselves as candidates torepresent the counties of Hamblen andGntinger in the next Legislature. Asthe election comes ofT in NovemlK-r- ,

there is no necessity for either party tobe in haste about selecting a candidate.Let. the candidates come out and mixwith the people, give them their viewsupon the various issues of the day, tellthem what measures they propose to ad-

vocate if elected, Are. This would givethe people an opportunity to see and be-

come acquainted with them, and of courseenable them to judge the more correctlywith Tegard to their relative fitness forthe position. The candidate who is un-

willing to give the people time to con-

sider, but who wants a (Jonre,u4itn. imme-

diately, simply expect to gain some un-

fair advantage thereby. After the peo-

ple have had an oppprtunity to see thecandidates, and hear their respectiveviews upon the issues of the day, let theparties in cvisry civil district in the twocounties, hold primary meetings, whereit can be decided who is their choice,and delegates appointed to cast their votein a Convention. By this means thewishes of the people can be made known,and the men wIm ht rtaily the choiceof their party would be the candidates.The 1st of October is early enough for aConvention, as there would then be am-

ple time to canvass the two counties. Icertainly tluak there should be a wakingup on this faibject. Let Conventions bemade better or abolished entirely. Thepeople are getting tired of a little ' clique'of ten or twenty men in a county dic-

tating to the rest whom they shall votefor. I should be glad to hear from oth-

ers upon this subject, and perhaps Ishall say something more anon.
