"The excitement over the riots of the past
two days has subsidized some to-day. las,
night scenes occurred which will be lasting
disgrace to Memphis, but still / am glad to be
able to say that the higher classes had not
anything to do with it. The origin of the
riot, as it appears from an eye witness, a
highly respectable gentleman and reliable
man, is as follows: On Tuesday afternoon,
on South street, q negro expressman collided
with a hack driven by white man. The
white man collared the negro for it, rho apol-
ogized by saying he could not holp it. The
hackman continued his abuse, and finally a
ytiyht ensued. A policeman came to help the
white man, and negroes to the help Of the
negro, and thus the riot began have taken
particular pains to learn the origin.
churches and school houses we're burned,
besides thirty-fve negro tenements One
negro woman was roasted alive.
This evening about seven o clock as num-
Der OF drunken men were returning through
Chelsea, from picnic, they became mixed in
difhculty with some negroes, killing two
and severely wounding one. An old negro
wyman was also badly beaten
s'.The city of Memphis is in deplorable
condition. The Mayor of Memphis has been
drunk ever since the riot commenced
Evidently the quarrel between two hackmen
would never have led to such fearful scenes
of blood, had not the old hatred of the Rebels
for an oppressed race, burst forth with flame
and fury at the sight of men of that hated
race, just discharged from service in the
Union army. 1t may be all true that the
aristocracy did not personally engage in this
war of determination on the negroes-Oh no,
that is not their style of doing business. They
stand back out of harms way and egg on the
bruisers and black guards to do their dirty
work. This is but the first outbreak of the
war against Union men white and black,
which the Aralanche and other disloyal pa
pers have been melting through their editorial
columns for months past. 1t is simply the
spirit of the late rebellion reused anew to
deeds Of hate and blood. Threats and pro-
scription against white loyalists, fire and
massacre against the negroes, are but the
natural, inevitable and premeditated opening
of the programme of determination of Un-
ionists contemplated by the editor Of the
Aralanche and his hackers, the reconstructed
and blatant Rebels of Memphis.

The Valley Railroad.

r. j. Strickland, Esq, canvassing
agent for the Valley Railroad, paid a
visit to our office last week He gave
very fattering accounts of the PROJECT,
north of Cambridge, of raising the re-
| quired amount of subscriptions asked by
the projectors of the load from that sec
| ton to enable them TO complete 1t TO
Hagerstown-
The Cambridge City Mirror states that
the amount necessary to complete the
road from Laurel to Connersville has
been assumed by some of the citizens of
this county and rendered to Mr.. Lord,
provided he would agree to build the
road as far as Connersville. Mr. L. re-
fused to accept the proposition because
he would not 60 further north than Laur
ell unless he had the amount required as
necessary to finish the road from Laruel
to Cambridge City, and unless this was
done in a reasonable time he should en-
ter into an arrangement with the Rush
county men and go from Laurel to Rush
vile, at which place he expects to make
a northern connection with the Fort
Wayne road, running from Rushville to
Muncie.
The Valley Road. if built will have one
of the best grades in the State, and its
freight would enhance the value of pro
duce all along the valley. The increas
ed value of every man. property, lying
within reach of the road, would amply
repay all that may be subscribed to-
wards building it. We hope the people
living between Connersville and Cam
bridge will awaken to their true interest,
and furnish the means demanded from
them as necessary to ensure the com
pletion of the road Conn. Times.

AFEW REASONS WHY THE
AMERICAN WATCH
Is THE BEST

1t is made on the best principle while the foreign
watch Is generally made principle at all. The
foreign watc! mostly made by women and boys, by
hand While their labor Is cheap, their work is dear
at any price Such watches made without plan,
and sold without guarantee. They irregular in
construction, and irregular in motion. They
designed only to SELL and they buying is the party
most thoroughly sold. Those who have kept cancers,
.lepines and swiss levers, in professed repair for
few years III appreciate the truth of our statement
THE PLAN OF THE AMERICAN WATCH
Instead Of being made of several hundred little
pieces screwed together, the body of the American
Watch Is formed Of Of SOLID PLATES. No jar in
,erferes with the harmony of its working, and
sudden stock throw its machinery out of gear
In riding am business pursuit it is all held togeth
firmly a single ece of metal. 1t is just
what all machinery should be
ist ACCURATE, 81. SIMPLE, 3D. STRONG, 4th,
ECONOMICAL.
We not only secure chespne by system, but
quality. We % pretend that Watch can be
bought for less money than the foreign make believes,
but that for il. real value Is sold for one-alf the
price
OUR SOLDIERS WATCH named VIM Ellery is

THE PROOF Of the merits Of Watch may oe
found in the fact that employ

raand.
