NO Party.

Some time since an effort was made tc
oust ID, G. Morrow Esq, from the Post
Office at Trio, in this county, An elet-
tion was held for that purpose at which
only Republicans were allowed Is vote
Notwithstanding the fact that Mr.. Nor
row is an unainching Democrat lie re,
ceived majority o; the votes cast.
In the face and eyes Of tie election
and all their mo party" professions, the
Republicans last week succeeded in pro-
curing the removal of Mr., Morrow, and
the appointment of an "iueplessible" Re
publican in his place-ond that republic
an living two miles from the place where
the Post Office ought to be kept,
With how bad grace do the follow
ers of John Brown make their "no par
ty" professions ? Prescribing Demo

Office as the one at Taro, and then cry

Create ENcifcincnt---A White
MAN Assaulted, and the Negro
Shot,

On Friday evening last, considerable
excitement prevailed In the lower p art of
this city, occasioned by negro assault
ing, white man in return shooting the
negro. Upon making the proper in
quiry as to the cause of this difficulty,
we have learned the following facts: II
appears that some negro families living
near the gas works, are in the habit of
having disorderly dancing, and noisy,
rl"tous proceedings nearly every night, to
the great annoyance of many peaceable
families III the neighborhood. Mr.. Shop
bell, respectable white man, whose
peace and comfort had been particularly
disturbed by the negroes, made efforts by
petition and otherwise have them remov-
ed from tho neighborhood. This exas-
perated the negroes, who made all man
cr Of threats that they would assail Mr..
Shopbell the first opportunity. 1t seems
that on Friday evening one of the ne
groes named Jenkins met Mr.. Shopbel
in front of Cotton's marble shop, and
instantly struck him deadly blow on tho
face with large stone, which did serious
injury. SEopbell, having a loaded re-
volser, sent the contents Of one barrel in
to the body OF the negro, the ball passing
through the feshy part Of the arm, and
lodging under the ribs on the right side.
Ihe wound is dangerous one, and the
negroes recovery is considered doubtful.
Another negro, fearing visitation of pop
ular vengeance, left the city in "double
quick time" There was some talk on
Saturday Of Cleaning the negroes OUT
Of town; but we hope very good citizen
will set his face against mob law.-M.

An Eloquent Plea for Peace

Let those who can look beyond the
outward pomp of war dwell on the feartu
picture. Not on the toilsome march
not on the dreary camp and cherries biv,
ouac, not even on the stiff, cold forms,
stretched in eternal sleep, and beyond all
human sympathies; but on the torn and
mangled images of God, shrieking with
agony amidst yells of anger; on the dying
writhing with agony beneath the hoofs OF
trampling chargers, suffering a thousand
mortal agonies in the long interval be-
tween the death-wound and the death,
and calling vaiuly to his comrade in the
charging column for one drop of water
to moisten his cleaving tongue. The can.
teens are all empty, and the only streams
are those which gush warm and red from
the life tount, through shattered bosoms
and dismembored frames.
Let those who, when the drums beat
mcrrily, can hear the victims groan; when
the bright bayoneto gli,ten and the gaudy
banners float gracefully in,the breeze, can
see the coffin and the shroud; let them
dwell long and earnestly upon the picture;
and on the desolate homes. the bereaved
and helpless ones, the orphans and
widows, not only in the South but in the
North, reduced to poverty and rags
And when they think that little of for
bcarance, little of charity and kindly
feeling, even a little sef-denial and world
ly sacrifice, can avert the realities of which
the picture is lutan outline and softeucd
sketch, let them rouse themselves in all
the strength and energy of their manhood,
and shout for peace till the reverbations
make the walls of the White House and
the domes Of the Capitol tremble with
the sound.

H0WITZERS.

The howtizer is short, wide mouthed
piece of ordinance, calculated for throw
ing shells or balls, as may be desired, and
discharged by means of fuse. The cal
ibre is much greater than that of cannon
thug h not great as mortars; it is very
effective siege and in resting cavalry, as
il can be used to throw canister or other
proiectiles, and is easily transported
only the larger size come under the head
of the siege guns. The howtizer was
first introduced into the French service in
1924.

MORTARS.

Martas are usually stationary, and are
used for throwing iron shells filled with
powder, and ignited by a fuse; burning
they produce great destruction. They are
effective at distances of from one to three
miles.

CARRoNADES.

Carronades derive their name from the
Carron Foundry, in Scotland, where they
were first cast in l779. They are short,
light, iron guns, differing from cannon
and howitzers in having no trunions, be-
ing fastened to their carriages by loop
underneath, They are chiefly used for
arming ships, and enable vessels to throw
heavy shot at close quarters without
overlooking their decks with heavy guns
On shore, Carronades are used in the
same manner and for the sans purposes
as howitzers.
