sAMRo uyTHE JURY BOx.

A friend sends us the following, as mar
rated by an eyewitness, which is as anus
ing as il is Characteristic
In an interior county Of Texas, not many
weeks since, difficulty occurred between
two colored gentleman, in which one came
very near losing his life, without the least
provocation. The offender was arrested
and brought before Justice for trial. Able
counsel were employed upon both sides.
A Jury Of colored citizens, were brought
from the cotton fields, impanneled, sworn
and charged to determine the issue accord
ing to law and evidence. The testimony
was taken, and the arguments Of counsel
heard on both sides, and the court charged
the jury that it was their duty to find a
verdict, and when they had found u to re-
turn II into coart--that If they found
their verdict 50 and so, that such and such
would be the result, but n they found
otherwise, the result would be different.
The jury was put in charge. Of an. officer
and conducted TO a room, and left to them~
selves After the lapse of half an hour or
more, Sam, the foreman, was seen making
his way, followed by the rest of his peers,
to the seat OF the Judge, papers in hand
with tbe airs common to the young ia the
law. The pannel was called and thanafi
tiates requested to answer to their names.
Sam then squared himself before the court,
displaying the papers with great pomposity,
and thus delivered himself to his honor
See here, Mr.. Court, ives bin down to dat
are room, and we hunts in every crack, in
every corner, up the chimney, and under
de foor, and can't find anything dat
looks'iike werdick." His Honor then
attempted to explain to them what YER
dict was, and directed them to retire and
consider of it. After they had been out
about half an hour, again made their ap
pearance before the court, and Sam thus
inquired Of his Honor: "Looker here, Mr.
Court, did Mt you point me foreman of dis
here jury ?" Yes sir, did. "Dat's what
| told des fools, but dey amt got sense
enough to know it'll tells 'em what and
how dis case is, and dey won't do as | tell
'em-ain't dey bound to do what / say,
Mr. Court ?" The Justice told them they
might go back 10 their room, and requested
the counsel TO go after them and make up
a verdict, as he wished to go to dinner
The lawyers followed, and the jury soon
returned with verdict of one dollar fine
and the dismissal of the defendant.

THE LATE GOVERNOR SANTIAGO
VEDAURRI.

The Brownsville R1nchero thus sketches
the life Of the late Gov. Nidaurri. He was
originally Of the Liberal party, we would
premise, and was far more advanced ia
views of the progress needed in Mexico
than were his eOuntrymea. He was in
favor Of the formation of a separate Sierra
Madre Republic with view 10 subsequent
annexation to the United States, and his
Joining the Imperialists was only for the
purpose of affecting his desired introduc.
ton Of foreign aid and population in an
other way. The Rdnchero says:
Az the time of his execution, Gov. vi.
daurri was in his sixtieth year, having
been born in 1908, in the town of LAM
pssas, in the State Of Nuevo Leon. he
was the son of Spanish soldier of distine-
tion, aud by his own merits aud individual
exertions rose 10 the distinguished position
of Governor of Nuevo Leon, which office
he held for more than ten years, and until
the retreat of Juarez through Monterey to-
ward Chihuahua. On that eventful coca
sion, Coy Nidaurri went into Texas
whilst his Secretary of State, Manuel G.
Reion, came into the Federal lines at this
place, and was, by Heron, delivered over
10 bandit Cortina, and by him taken ON
and shot
Gov. Vidxurri went back from Texas t.
Monterey and gave his adhesion, as did al
prominent Mexicans, to the Empire. Ihi
was fatal step, for be was made Of toC
stern stuff to turn traitor 10 the Imperial
lists on the first Ill wind, as did too many

THE COTTON CROP AND WORM IN
ALABAMA.


The Selma Messenger of the oath ult.,
publishes the following extract from a
private letter
think our prospect for good crop OF
cotton is twenty-five per cent. less than il
was ten days ago. It was so wet last week we
could not work This, with the consequent
loss Of time, and the decentralization pro-
duced by speeches and idle chat attending
registration, has seriously injured us.
Week before last | could have done more
work in one day than l can now in two. A
good deal of my cotton is very large and
watery-jointed, and it must be very season
able for us to make crop. If it is rainy,
the bottom crop will rot from excessive
shade. If, on the other hand, the weather
be very dry, the growth will be checked
and most of the squares will drop. feel
nervous and uneasy about our condition,
and failure this year will ruin u.s. 1 have
more grass to-day than at any time this
year"
The Montgomery Nal of July 81, says
4" We hear complaints that the army OF
boil worm has made its appearance in diff
ferent sections of Alabama, and some ap
prehension is felt that some damage vii
result to the cotton crop. In Elmore anc
Coosa counties, gentleman informs as tina
a peculiar kind Of bug or insect has ap
| peared in the cotton fields, and is nov
doing considerable damage to the plant
| This is to be deplored, but we trust tn,
damage to be apprehended is everest

FENIANISM IN THE ARMY.

Court Martial for Joining Fenian
Procession

United States soldiers on Trial by
Court Martial for Joining "a Fenian
Procession.
from the Buffalo Express.
1t will be remembered that on the 4th
of July the Fenian regiment paraded in
the line with the regiments belonging to
New York State National Guard and the
veterans. At that time it was reported
that Major General Barry had written a
sharp note to General Rogers touching the
propriety Of allowing the Fenians to ap-
pear in line with the State troops. Gen.
Rogers replied in card, published in one
of the city papers, in which he made it
evident that there was considerable feeling
about the matter, but no further action was
taken.
On the occasion of the recent Fenian
picnic it was noticed that number of
United States troops now stationed at Fort
Porter marched with the procession, some
Of them wearing the Fenian uniform.
Last week an order from the War De-
partment was published, ordering court
martial to convene at Fort Porter for the
trial of such persons as should be brought
before it.
At noon yesterday the court assembled
and seventeen cases were brought before it.
Most of them are based on charges con-
neoted with the Fenian picnic, bat as ne
testimony has yet been taken to establish
the guilt of the accused, we omit the names,
The following are the charges and spe-
cifcations in the case of those taking part
in the procession

The RemovaI of Sheridnn.

New YORK, August THE Times
special says Gen. Grant publicly expressed
the opinion to-day that Gen. Sheridan
would not be removed, and an evening or
gan of the Administration prints anIedito-
rial tonight advising the President against
the issue of an order to that effect. 1t is
probable, however, that neither of these
statements were made after consultation
with the President, as it is known that he
still persists in his intention to displace
Sheridan, Gen. Grant says Gen Thomas
and Hancock are both actively engaged in
the duties of the departments which cannot
be interfered with without detriment to
the public service. Rumor connects the
fact that the President has telegraphed in
person to Gen, Rousseau, ordering him to
Washington, with the removal of Gen.
Sheridan, and it is suggested he is to be
assigned to the fifth district. 1900

IT will be seen from our dispatches that
Judge Lawrence, of Nashville, has been
authorized by General Carlin to look after
the interests of the negroes discharged for
voting the Radical ticket. When the man.
ufactures of Connecticut: discharged their
workmen last spring for not voting the
Radical ticket, We never heard that the
Freedmen's Bureau deemed it necessary to
interfere This whole freedmen's business
is the most internal humbug Of the age. If
the negroes are fit to exercise the rights Of
citizenship they are certainly in need of no
other protection than the laws give to white
citizens, and if they are children, and need
the protection of the United States con-
tinually, it is an imposition upon the
country, and an insult to its citizens to con-
fer upon them an equality of civil rights
with them.-C Chattanooga Union, Aug. Z.

The government of Nuevo Leon and
Coshuila, under the administration of vi
daurri, was an Acknowledged success. In
der his administration peace was main
tanned, commerce prospered, manufactures
we're built up, education hourished, and
the agricultural resources of those States
were largely developed. His was the best
government ever maintained within the
Republic Of Mexico The government of
Santiago Nidaurri was green spot in the
desert Of Mexican outlawry. Through
ten years of Mexican revolution, the
States of Nueyo Leon and CoahuiIa were
peacefully conducted-all the work Of a

MAYORS OFFICE, TULLAHoMA, Tenn,
August Z, 1S67.-GENTLEMEN: A piece
published in the editorial columns of the
Press and Times of the 9th instant, headed
"Outrage at Tullahoma," etc., in which il is
asserted that "colored man was set upon
and beaten in shocking manner" and
that "the civil authorities refused to take
action" etc, is a statement false in every
particular. There has been no difficulties
whatever attending the late election at this
place. Both white and colored citizens
deported themselves in an orderly and
quiet manner, and no disturbance of any
kind has taken place since.
1t speaks well for any community when
its enemies have to resort to sneh barefaced
lying to iniure it. Respectfully,

rhe johnson stanton ImbrOglfO-
stanton to be Suspended.
New YoRK, August The Heralds
special says that the Secretary of War has
refused the Presidents polite invitation to
retire from Office. The Presidents note is
very brief, only four lines in length, and
simply states that grave public considera
tons constrain him TO request Mr.. Stanton's
resignation. Mr. Stanton's answer is also
very brief, and intended to be very cutting
and severe. 1t is not decided what step
Mr.. johnson will next take, but think he
will notify Mr.. Stanton that he is no longer
Secretary of War. and must vacate forth
sith.
After the adjournment of the Cabinet
meeting the President was cIoseted with
his Secretary until 10 o'clock at night. 1t
is supposed it had reference to the Stanton
imbroglio. The subject of StantOn's re-
moval has been the absorbing topic of con-
versation to-day in every circle, and there
has been much speculation to learn what
will next transpire. Among prominent
officials it seems to be the general opinion
that the President has power to remove Mr.
Stanton under the provision Of the first sec.
ton of the tenure-of. office bill.
Mr.. Stanton kept himself almost coms
pletely shut up in his private Office to day
1t is said that Secretary Seward is not al
together in favor of the Presidents action
in this matter, and that he and Thurlow
Weed are about to strive to save Stanton's
head again. A year ago when there was
serious thought of removing Stanton, Weed
and Raymond's influence, coupled with
Stewards entreaties, induced the President
to abandon the idea. 1t is now said BY the
friends of the President that Stanton's Of
fences amount to deliberate system of
thwarting the President and obstructing
his policy in every way, and insulting him
repeatedly in his official intercourse. The
President, it is claimed, has determined to
tolerate this no longer, and has put his foot
down firmly.
The Tribune's special says, under the
civil tenure bill Mr.. johnson does not feel
fully satisfied that he can remove Stanton,
because of the phraseology quoted here
"shall hold their offices respectively during
the term of Office of the President by
whom they have been appointed" But he
feels satisfied he can suspend Stanton, and
prohibit him from exercising the duties Of
war minister. This latter point was sub
mitted to the Cabinet, and they agreed the
President could suspend. Mr.. johnson
will, therefore, in day or two, notify Mr..
Stanton that he will not hold any other
official relations with him, and that he
cannot be admitted to Cabinet meetings.

that it would be good plan to fill mp the

charged for voting to degrade their white
employers. As the law only allows pay
when in active service, and as the only
actual service would be to make war on the
white men, it will be easily inferred how
