HE TROUBLE AT MOBILE Enrtfer Partic
Hlars.-We have already given some particu
lars OF the excitement at Mobile, growing out
of the discovery that Hfessrs.s Strickland &
| Epson, booksellers there, had been circulating
ncendiary documents. A letter from that
city to the New York Herald, dated the 10Th
inst, says:
"a son Of DR.. Woodcock calledat the store
of William Strickland and Edwin Upson-frm
| of Strickland Com Wednesday, and af-
ter considerable searching found the g Life and
Writings of Frederick Douglassp for which
Mr.. Epson charged the exorbitant price of
81 80, which Mr.. Woodcock promptly paid.
A Committee of Vigilance, consistingAof TWEEN
ty five of our leading men,, soon met at the
Battle House, sent for MessFs Strickland and
Epson, and after giving them a fair hearing,
required them to give bonds in the sum of
$4,000 each for their appearance before the
committee the next day, for further examina-
ton Meantime an examination of their stock
aud account books proved the Statements of
Strickland and Upson to have been utterly false.
Instead of these two or-three copies having
accidentally got in their store with lot of
secondhand books as stated by them, their
press letter book contained an order, in Mr..
Strcklands handwriting, for fifty copies of
said work. On Thursday the accused appear
ed before the committee and were ordered to
" settle up "-and leave town within five davs,
after which time the committee would not be
answerable for their lives The penalty of the
law here in such case provided, is death, or
not less than ten years Imprisonment in the
penitentiary" E
Thursday night party started for the resi-
dence of Mr. Strickland, armed and equipped
for g tightrope performance y but by the
prompt interpoSition of the more moderate por-
ton of the Vigilance men the performance
was postponed" Mr.. Urson has not been seen
since Thursday Mr. Strickland was in his
store yesterday, and passed through our streets
unmolested. Thongh the proofs of his guilt
were not then kuown two Of his friends, meet
ing him, accoSted Him in this wise Strick-
land, if | believed what is reported of You to
be true, | would hang yOu as high as Haman'
" YES" said the other, 'if half Of it was true,
| wouId help to lynch you on the spot" Sen
tmentS Ike these are in every mouth and great
is felt among many at the leni-
cnt course of their committee. Strickland has
not been seen in the city to day, and it has
been ascertaimed that he left town in a sail
boat yesterday evening, soon after the warn
ing he received from his friends 1t is suppoS-
ed he has gone North by the underground
route 80

THE STATE TIcKET-The October election

have most reliable information that he is equal

at is a matter of !. rltuation that we have

OF scrupulous honor, Of manly bearing, of in,
corrupt morals, of a heroic spirit, young, en-,
terprising, proved in danger, of an excellent
Judgment, of great sagacty in practical affairs,
remarkable for capacity to command, and for
habits of self-command, and above all, an nn-
worn, unhacked politician He is an honest
man, and he is not a supple politician.
Against such an one there can be brought
no political charges, no broken promises, no
terglversatons, no conduct supple, evasive, I'M
manly, dishonest. He has no feuds, no party
commitments, no political enmities., He is a
clear, fresh, able, honest, heroic man. Let us
try how it will seem again to see such man
President of these United States. 3 .-r
Therefore, let Christians pray for him let
all men work let lies breed and swarm and
buzz, and die like mosquitoes in a morass but
let every true man go right straight forward,

Suading, and then let November he the iudo-
