RowDY1sM PUNISHED. A couple Of
drunken rowdies took their seats in the
Worcester cars Tuesday evening, and
soon made themselves very conspicuous
by their vuIgarity and profanity so as
to become exceedingly annoying to the
ladies' and gentleman in the car Before
the train reached Newton the conductor,
having given them frequent admonhions
without effect, very properly and promptly
stopped the cars and with the assistance
of some Of the passengers cheeriully rem

THE ELECTIONS.

In Tennessee the elections have proved most
disastrous TO wing hopes. The Nashville Whiu
of the 18th instant informs us that Stanton, de-
mocratic, has been elected to Congress by up-
wards of 800 majority-a democratic gain Will
Hanson, democrat is elected to the Senate from
the Shelby District, and Pearce, democrat. ne
Floater from the same District, while Fisher.
democrat, has been elected to the House of Rem
resentatives from the county of Fayette. This
ensures democratic majority on Joint ballot in
the Legislature The democrats have carried the
Siate-boh Governor and Legislature. Browns
majority for Governor is estimated by the Wing
at 1900.
In Kentucky, the Democracy have lost one
Representative in Congress, Young, whis. having
beaten Stone, democratic, in the Fifth District.
We have, however, made heavy gain in the
popular vote throughout the State
In Indiana, the Democrats have secured ma
jority in the Legislature on joint ballot-the Sen
ate standing 25 whig, 25 democratic, the MAORI
ty being in the lower House. Messrs Owen,
Henley, Davis, II. Smith, Petit, Cahcart, Wick
and Kennedy, democrats-and G.. b. Smith and
McGaughey, wings, are the members of the next
Congress, leaving the Representation the same as
the last Congress.
In Alabama, the Democracy, as usual have
carried the State, leaving but one federal Repre-
sentalion in Congress, Henry W. HiIliard in the
Second District, all the rest being democrats.
The returns lately received, corrects our former
impression that Terry, the regular nominee for
Governor, was elected. Joshua L. Martin, the
Independent candidate has beaten him, by up
wards of 5000 votes.

r. j. WALKER AND THE COLUMBIA
OBSERVER

Below, we give the charge made against Rob
ert j. Walker by the Columbia Observer-the re-
ply of the Southron, with the card of Mr. Walk
er's solicitors. The facts are plain and obvious
that we deem all remark from ourselves superlu
Gus. The charges of the Observer are like many
others which all truly great men are compelled
to meet from their enemies-biter, malignant,
and without the shadow Of foundation and made
with that desperation which risks the accuser's
own infamy the hazard of the accused's pros
traion. The tide of indignation has reached its
flood, and must now fall upon the heads of the
conSpirators
From the Columbia (Ten.) Observer, July 3.
Robert j. Wdiker-Statemen of the Case
A note was executed for the payment of pur-
chase from John Brown and John L. Smith, of
this county, by Mcneil, Wilkinson, & Co., and
endorsed by r. J. Walker, Thos Bernard and S
Sprague, for $4,000, dated January LIST, 1885,
and due three years after date. This note was
sent to Gen. Barrow, then member of the Mis-
sissippi bar, now editor of the Nashville Banner,
and was subsequently put in the hands of another
lawyer for collection. The principals having fail
ed. suit was instituted against r. j. Walker as
endorser, who employed Mr.. Smedes, Of Vicks-
burg, to defend the case. From some informali-
ty the suit was dismissed but mark the note was
then before the court and 81 Mr.. Walker put in no
plea of not having endorsed it. But afterward the
UOtS WIS HE~LJ IL CSItieu copy OF lJ was, IN De-
cember 1912. put in the hands of Smedes & Mar
shall, Of Vicksborg, who had in the meantime
formed partnership, and they were directed by
the plaintiffs to file bill in chancery. This was
done. Now comes the rub. Mr.. Walker know

tanned the proper price of the God-lke part of

Mr.. Editor will you he so good as to in
form the friends of the Temperance cause in this
place, that the Young Mems Total Abstinence
Society is still in existence, and should the wea-
ther prove favorable, next Monday Epening, the
will hold meeting in the Lecture Room of the

officers for the ensuing six months.
1t is hoped for the sake of the rising generation,
that the friends of the cause in this place will
unite in the effort and assist the few who have
resolved, that the Temperance Ball must and
shall roll on, until the Throne of the Tyranl King
totters and falls.
1t has been said by some who have enrolled
their names, it is truly noble cause, but | can
not attend the meetings; this ought not to be the
case.
We all ought to rally under our below ed ban

the cause by attending the stated meetings, and

join with us, for cause is just and triumph we
must. Respectfully, S. j. S.

Serious reflection cannot fail to impress any one
with the vast importance of this subject. Is man,

vidual among the millions now inhabiting the
earth as we'll as the countless generations who

ROBERT j. WALKER

considerable space in paper, this day is
occupied with Statement in reference to this
gentleman, that was made against him by the
Columbia (Te.) Observer. whig journal, and
which has been extensively copied by the whg
press throughout the country. We rejoice in the
additional evidence of the purity of Mr.. Walkers
private life, and the adamantve character he must
possess, to be able to withstand the repeated bit
ter assaults that have been made upon him. In
publishing this statement and lis rebutter, the
Natchez Free Trader makes the following re-
marks: Z" This infamous attempt TO destroy the
fame of this distinguished man is put TO rest by
this card. 1t seems to have been the fate of all
public men, particularly on the democratic side,
from Jefferson and Jackson to the present time, to
have suffered the most outrageous abuse and all
manner of SANDER against their names and char
acters. Mr.. Walker is not alone. The brightest
ornaments our country has ever had-even Wash
ington himself-have had their enemies, SANDER
ers and villifers; and we are sorry TO say that
that profession, of which we are an humble mem
Der, has done more to foster this vicious propensity
than, all Others combined. This is melancholy
truth which we would were otherwise. The
freedom Of speech and liberty of the press in this
country are our pride and our boast, but when
that press is prosttuted to the unhalowed pur-
poses of raking up private transactions and dis
torting them. to make out case, and then pub
fishing them to the world to blast the private
character or public reputation of individuals, it
becomes curse hardly to be tolerated. The
strong of public opinion should put down eve
ny such press. Society should read the editor
of such an establishment out of its pale, and his
paper should be spurned as the murderer Of that
which is dearer than life--reputaon."
For our part cannot but rejoice that these
charges, if they are, by the villanous and corrupt
to be made at all, are brought forward thus early
for they now can be refuted, as two have already
BEEN The great crime of Mr.. Walker, we
think, has been, that he is the maker of his own
fortune, and so rapidly has he risen, in public es-
timation that his enemies, enemies for that reason
alone, fear that he will attain the highest honors
his country can bestow; and therefore, their vim
diciive efTnrts to null him down
