DEATH OF HON. II. L. TURNEY.

We are panied to hear of the sudden death, of
disease of the heart, of the Hon. HOPKINS L. TUR-
NEY. He had started to walk from his Office in
Winchester to his residence the town, and died
before reaching it. Mr.. Turney had been q men,
Der of both Houses of our State Legislature he
many years Representative in Congress, and for
term represented the State in the United States
Senate. His influence in the section of country
where he resided was for long time very great,
aud his position at the bar well in politics
in the front rank of the politicians and lawyers
of the State. We make this brief and hasty an
nOuncement now, and hope to be furnished with
more extended notice of the deceased for subse-
auent issue of our paper. --

COMMERCIAL CONVENTION.

How MARCY COMPOSED HIS STATE PAPERs.-The
editor of the New York Evening Post speaking as if
from personal knowledge, says:
'Mr. Marcy, in Washington, commonly composed
his important dispatches, not in his Office, but in
his library at home. When thus engaged, he would
at once, after breakfast, begin his work, and write
till nearly noon, when he would 90 to the Depart
inert, receive calls and attend TO the regular
routine duties of his position. During the hours
of composition, he was so completely engrossea
with his subject that persons might enter and
90 out, or talk in the same room, without in the
least obtaining his notice He wore spectacles
usually sat in his dressing gown, with an old red
Handkerchief the table before him, and one could
judge of the relative activity of his mind by the
frequency Of his application to the snuf-box. In
truth, he was an inveterate snuff taker, and his
consumption of that article appeared to have inju,
riously affected his voice.
''He wrote deliberately, with few erasures or
changes, and his thoughts generally in the first
draft assumed the form of expression in which he
was willing to publish them. He almost always
used pencil and left the second draft to be penned
by clerk. This, however, he rarely altered. His
handwriting was legble and handsome, without be-
ing clerkly."

JUDGE ROWLFS.

The Cleveland Banner thus notices speech at
that place by this distinguished gentleman:
Judge Rowles, in the course of his speech here,
after having declared his course as to Legislative
matters took graphic view of the state Of parties
and principles avowed by them in the late Presiden-
tial canvass. He dwelt on the bold stand taken by
the democratic party on truly national ground
He maintained the principles thus avowed had re-
ceyed and would continue TO receive the support of
Mr. Buchanan. 1t was the duty, he mentioned of
every national man, to sustain the policy of the
administration, and to do this effectually, men
should be sent as Senators and Representatives to
Congress who would give his administration a cor
dial support on all the principles avowed in his
Inaugural address. Acting on those views Judge
Rowles declared if elected, he would vote for the
nomipee of the democratic party for United States
Senator. or Senators, if two were elected He was
we'll satisfied hat the democratic party, if they had
the mower to elect, would choose no one the NOM
inee for that high position unless he was sound and
true in all respects; hence he had no hesitation in
evolving his determination TO stand by the nominee
of the party.
In conclusion, be declared he would stand by all
and every principle avoWed by him. in reference to
State OF Federal policy.

The CoTToN CRoP.-The Mobile Register, in re-
ferring to the recent communication in the New
York Journal of Commerce, giving estimate of the
next CROP shrewdly suspects from the eztraUGgdRcs
of his figures that the writer either knows nothing
of the subject which he affects TO speak advisedly
or he sngulary misrepresents facts for it is
ly possible that any man in this section of country
could blunder so widely with any data before him
" Think of it," says the Register, ''He sets down
the coming crops at 100000 or 100000 bales !!
With all the disasters and delays which have affect
ed the crop, with present seasons not very good,
with the amount of land planted in cotton, but on
account of bad stands afterwards planted in corn,
from the probability of early frost, if we exceed
the present crop 10000 bales, it will be remarka-
BILE We know it is common at this season of the
year to make unfavorable predictions of the crop,
with the hope of influencing the market. But on
the other hand buyers and manufacturers equal
ly interested in depreciatng the value of cotton by
the prospect Of over production and their agents
and emissaries constantly volunteering the most
silly opinions. We sincerely believe from careful
examination of the reports from all the cotton grow
ing sections, that the present growing crop will not
exceed {, 1000, 600 or 8, 100, 900 bales"

THE BARBECUE AND BANNER PRESENTATION
AT FOUNTAIN HEAD.

We have glowing accounts Of the meeting in
Bradleys district, Sumner county last week, on the
occasion of the presentation of flag to the ndomi-
table democracy of that district by Governor
johnson, Hon. Andrew Ewing, and Gen. s. R. An
dersOn. The Gallatin Examiner, paper which
takes no part in politics, thus speaks of the affair:
THE Fountain HEAD JUBnEE.-We had the plea
sure of attending the meeting on Thursday last
In number it was very large, from all portions of
this county, and lower Kentucky. The occasion
was the presentation of banner by Gov. johnson,
Hon. Andrew Ewing and Gen. S. r. Anderson, to
the democracy of Bradley's district. Judge G. w.
Allen, on behalf of the donors, presented the ban
ner, with a few appropriate remarks, which were
happily replied to by Dr. Durham on the part of the
citizens. Mr.. Ewing then addressed the meeting
for about two hours in his happiest manner, dis
cussing the leading political issues. His speech
gave very great satisfaction to his friends
Mr.. F. W. Gillespie then announced his with
drawal from the canvass for county representative
with few remarks expressive of his attachment
to the democratic party, and unwillingness to as
sumo any attitude subVersive of its harmony.
The meeting then addressed by Col. John A.
Finn, of Franklin, KY, of the democratic cleo
tors last year. He is a fine specimen of Kentucky
oratory, and made stirring speech. He was fol-
lowed by. w. H. Solomon, ESQ, who smoke very
happily for about half an hour upon the Importance
of union of the party.
The great crowd were Toasted upon the good
things provided by the hospitable citizens of that
section in great abundance.
Gov. johnson, we have learned, was prevented BY
executive business from attending. He had Just
returned the day previous from a tour in West Ten
nessee addressing the people.

CONE FIRE MORE. AND THE DAY IS OURS

GONE FIRE MORE. AND THE DAY is OURS y
Our friend of the Shelbyville Constitutionalist
makes rousing appeal to the gallant democracy of
Bedford. 1t will do for other quarters: Let the
democracy, he urges turU out on election day, and
just such another licking Sam will get never will
be witnessed again But if they stay at home on
the day of election look out for disaster and defeat
Let the leading men of the civil districts in the
ty meet together, and let committees be appointed
70 see each democrat in the district and tell him Of
the danger that although opponents do not make
any great noise and hosting, still they are at work
We say arouse from your lethargy, democrats, and
put on your whole armor, and let home be idle from
this until the day of the election. Watch well
pray, and when the smoke of the battle field
clears away, it will be found that that glorious old
flag under which Jefferson, Jackson and Polk fought
viii still be floating to the breezes of heaven all VIC
torious, while Sans flag will trail in the dust, and
his followers will fly in dismsy. Go to work. Bring
out the available force, and see that none stay at
home. Act promptly, and that Immediately. Do
not delay, but let every effort be put forth from this
time until the day of the election. Go to work,
democrats, tell your neighbor of the danger and
insist upon his being at the polls the day of the
election Let there be lettering blythe way side,
but let the democracy strike one bold and strong
stroke, and Sam falls to rise no more. This is his
last desperate struggle if democrats will only work
in the right manner.
