To give BRowNLow and company fair
show all around, the Bostonians gave the
crowd double reception, at one and the
same time Both Fanueil Hall and
fremont Temple were lighted up Tor the
occasion. A part Of the rowing committee
were received at one place, and part at
the other at the same time. Then the
"sh9ws" were exchanged, and that part
that had been exhibited at the Temple were
sent 10 the Hall, and rice uersa-so that all

STATE NEWS.

The Murfreesboro Monitor, of Saturday,
saws: "The negro, ELLIS, convicted for
killing the little boy, and sentenced to seven
years in the penitentiary, obtained a new
trial, on the ground that the verdict was not
sustained by the testimony"
= We have taken great pains during the
past week to inquire into the state Of the
crops. In the neighborhoods where there
has been rain. there will De very large
yield of cora-eight or ten barrels to the
acae-and an average yield of cotton. In
other neighborhoods, where the drought has
prevailed, the crops of cotton and corn viii
be very short A great deal depends on
thorough cultivation. Making rough
guess, we would say the corn crop will be an
average one, and the cotton crop little be-
low that of last year.
The Columbia Herald, of Saturday, has
the following;
The Nashville and Decatur Railroad are
now issuing communication tickets for the ac-
commOdation of those living in the country
and doing business in Nashville. One
ticket is good for twenty trips and can be
had at twenty per cent. discount from the
ordinary rates. This is certainly a benef
cial arrangement, and will be appreciated
- BY reference to a note from Mt. Pleas
ant it will be seen that there is to be colt

as our correspondent says, a good sign for

- The negro CHAs. DAVIDSON, charged
with committing a rape, has been convicted

the third time this week and he was found
guilty of an assault and battery and SEN
fenced to six months imprisonment in the

A correspondent of the same paper,
writing from Hickman county, says;

cotton than / ever saw in Hickman. Corn
is very good and our farmers, in this neigh

THE ELECTION IN DAVIDSON
COUNTY.


By the Governors proclamation, publish
ed on Sunday morning, Il win be seen that
an election is ordered in this county on the
Goth instant Saturday week. to fill the va
cancy in the House of Representatives,
caused by the resignation of SAMUEL J.
CARTER, Esq. The proclamation also au-
thorizes the municipal election, which, I'M
der the City Charter, occurs on the same
day.
In view of the short time intervening, it
behooves the Conservative party to take
early steps to select and present to the voters
a proper candidate for the position. We
have heard number of names suggested,
either one of whom would make an admira-
bic representative. The selection should be
confded to judicious council of Conserva-
tive men, as there is no time for a regular
nominating convention. The man selected
should consent to serve, and there should be
no rivalry or collision for the place. He
should be man of ability and solidity of
character-one who knows what to do, and
is not timid under responsibility. We trust
that good and true man viii soon be an
nounced. The Jacobin majority of that
body (the House of Representatives have
excluded one Of the members from
this county, Major LEWIS, without
right or reason and may be al
their November session in the temper still
to deny him and his constituents their con-
stitutional rights. From all the indications,
the masters and managers of the body called
the Legislature of Tennessee are bent on
projects even more nefarious than those they
already stand guilty Of The people of
Davidson need. then, a strong, earnest, fear
less man-one who can demand the rights
of her people, and resist the mischievous
schemes which the Radical plotters have at
heart. Let this matter be moved in at once.
