DRowNED.-A mostuntortunate occurrence
transpired few hundred yards above the
ferry on last Wednesday evening An old
gentleman by the name of Morgan, renter
on place Of Wiley Forts, about three miles
north OF here, in company with his sons,
some three or four in number, went into the
Hatchie to battle, the elder one of whom,
Elisha by name, and a citizen of Pontotoc,
Miss, aged twenty-one years, ventured too
far out into the current and was drowned
in full view of those he had loved and cher
ished from his infancy Several gentlemen
were near by, and, had they known that the
cries which they heard were proceeding from
one strug Cling for his life, could have rem
dered valuable assistance, and in all proba-
bility rescued the unfortunate from vratery
grave. After being notified Of the melan-
choly. occurrence, the writer of this, in com
pany with several gentlemen, proceeded to
the spot in boats and did all they could to
recover the body, but all elfoIts were vain
as the depth of water was too great to admit
of a thorough search being made Word
was then sent to town, and the Coroner, &C.
companied by several citizens, soon arrived
and the search was again resumed, but, We

All Fools, Dav.

On last Monday the good people Of our
county-erowding into court-were consid-
erably disappointed, not having even yet
learned to appreciate how utterly disgrace
ful is the carelessness and acknowledgement
Of things at Nashville Our Legislators, miss
representing the different portions Of the
State, in theirzeal to NEEDLE with everything,
like little children in toy shop, changed
our old terms Of holding Court from the
4th Monday in February, June and Octo-
Der, to the first Monday is March, July and
November This was done on the 18th Of
November last, and on the 10Th December
following, as we are informed, they repealed
the same, simply undoing what they had
done (And if they would do the same in
regard 30 all the work they have done 'twould
be the more creditable and satisfactory act
of their whole term Of olice.) The change
back to the old term time was not known
up to last Saturday, when some official pa
pers were received here from Nashville, and
the Judge did not know it on his arrival
Neither the Judge or the Lawyers, however,
could be expected to have known it, as the
Secretary Of State from whose Office the no
LITIGATION should have come land in which all
such papers are kept die not know Of the
change himself having telegraphed to this
place that the LIST Monday in July was the
time. Our people should not be surprised
at any ignorance or carelessness Of officials
at Nashville, for they do not act FOR the PEG
pie of tie State, but against them, and in
stead of being their agents, they endeayor
to be their oppressors, and the failure Of all
their attempts to degrade and humiliate their
betters, only serves to irritate and infuriate
that set Of Radical hlackruards whose blows
at those they hate, like the Chinese Boomer
ang, fly back in their own faces.
As the time for holding the court had pas
sed, of course it could not be held. The 18th
Monday in October is the date Of our next
Circuit Court, provided there is no more leg
islation on the inject and no more telegraph
ing by the Secretary Of State

LET THE NEWSPAPERS SUPPORT THE PREsI-
DENT.-The people have very empha scally
spoken throughout the country in favor Of the
Presidents veto. In public meetings like that
at Cooper Institute, and in smaller gatherings
at various points, with shouts and sound Of
cannon they have equally demonstrated that
they heartily endorse Mr.. JohnsOn's policy, and
we believe that his speech to the people in
Washington will greatly intensity the feeling Of
appreciation which is already abroad. II
remains now for the newspapers all over the
country to come out plainly and squarely in
support of the President in his conflict with q
revolutionary Congress. Men of all parties
have combined in the expression of a common
opinion upon Mr.. Johnson's course, and they
are all-with the exception Of the Jacobins-
in favor of 1t. Now is the time, then, for the
newspapers to come out boldly and explicitly
on behalf of the President, the constitution and
the restoration of the Union.

The ART OF BorTIING on LARGE SCALE
The Loyal League and politicians here have
been industriously at work for long time to
cork General Grant up for their own use here
after Their last labors in this work was ON
Thursday. They trotted him out, monopolized
him, feasted him, and hardly gave him time to
breathe freely; and, doubtless they are con-
vinced that they have him well secured-tightly
corked up. Now, these sapient political wire
pullers and notoriety mongers cannot see that
the reverse is the case. General Grant has
been doing with them precisely what was done
to Butler, he has been quietly corking them up
while they imagined they were bottling him.
He has remarkable cool way of doing things,
and acts with all the reticence, strategy, and
foresight towards these politicians that he did
toward the rebels, but they can not see it.
They think to use him and he is using them.
He has surely corked them up till 1868, when
he will use them for his own purpose.

the President in this view On the whole.
President Johuson's speech is bold, manly and

onspoken. More bold than anything which
Mr. Lincoln ever pronounced, it is not less re-
dolent of wit. 1t is not as classical as Sumner,
as ornate as Phillips, nor as evenly balanced
in its sentences as Seward; but it possesses the
sterling qualities of frankness, courage and
truth. 1t is, in fact, speech suited to the man
and to the times
