The following interesting letter is pub.
lished in the New York Tribune of the

| To the Editor Of the Tribune: ..
SIR-Under the frank of Demas Barnes.

which send you this extract:

DEMAS BARNES co.
Mr.. Barnes is one of the Democrats who
shout loudest for economy; yet it will be
seen that he does not practice what he
breaches. 1t is bad enough, l think, Mr..
Editor, to ask people to swallow such medi-
cines. but it is too much to pick their peck
cts while doing it-that is what robbing the
postoffice in the above manner amounts TO.
Does not also Mr.. Barnes set bad example
to Mr.. Ready Relief Helmbold, Mr.. Sarsa-
parilla Railway, Mr.. Pain Paint Burnett
and Mr.. Cocaine Wolcott? They will all
be boring the Democrats for Congress NOM
nations. A. 4.
New York, October Z.
The Vincennes (Indiana) Gazette says that a
train loaded with mules was to pass
through Salem, Indiana, a few days ago. The
telegraph operator circulated report in
the town that large delegation of Demo-
Gratis, with music, was to pass on the train
at the hour given. Crowds of Democrats
gathered at the depot ready to cheer. AS
the train moved up venerable possessor
of couple of long ears stuck his head
out of the stock car, and gave a peculiar
asinine salutation. The Democrats spoke
never word, but turned and fed.
The present position of the Democratic
party is very much akin to that of the two
shipwrecked sailors, who, finding that their
frail raft was rapidly gong to pieces, said,
one to the other:
Horatio-"Frank, can you pray"
Frank-"No; can you?"
Horatio-"No; but something must be
done ID quick"

PARAGRAPHs.-As Mr.. Joseph Clarke
was riding at the corner Of St. Charles and
Third streets yesterday, the wheels got
into a hole, and Mr.. Clarke was thrown
from the buggy. The horse became
frightened and dragged him some distance
on the ground, cutting him severely over
the eye, and bruising him somewhat.

Charles F. Morgan has been arrested,
charged with embezzling $50, the pro-
ceeds of watch intrusted to him for sale
by Angeline Edwards, of Burgundy street.
Diego Morphy, Esq, respected citizen
of New Orleans, died yesterday at the
age of seventy-eight years. Mr.. Morphy
was a man of finished education, and is
well known as having been teacher of the
French, Spanish and Latin languages. He
was brother of the late Judge A. Morphy,
Of the Supreme Court of Louisiana, the
father Of d. E. Morphy, and an uncle OF
Paul Morpby, of chess renown.
II is such unfortunate language as this,
IN the Ptcdy.lne this morning, that excites
and infiames The public mind. Attribut-
ing the tire at Gretua and the disturbance
that ensued to colored men, the writer
adds:
"If those negroes are melted by white
men, whose in1ammatory appeals have
stirred all their worst passions. it ought to
be known. New Orleans is no safer than
Gretna. Once these things are passed by
in silence, it will not be long before the
lurid cry Of Radical Senator will seek it,
fulfllment.'

SAILOR STABBED.-Last night about 8
o'clock sailor named Ross, alias Panch, of
the ship st. james, was stabbed in several
places and slightly wounded by another
sailor, said to be John Arson. The affair
occurred at the corner of Gallatin and
Barracks streets. The wounded man was
taken to the drug store at the corner OF
Dumain and Chartres streets, where his
injuries were dressed. He is badly cut in
the face and around the neck.
Arson was arrested and locked up in the
Second District Station; and it being known
that Ross had brought on the quarrel, he,
too, was locked up. He is described as a
most dangerous and unruly character,
creating great trouble on the passage. He
is charged with stealing Axson's clothing
and having assaulted him several times at
sea. Arson is German, and can not speak
a word of English.

Facts Worth Remembering.

1t is worth while, for all farmers every
where, to remember that thorough culture
IS much better than two or three mortgages
on their farms
That an offensive war against weeds is FIVE
times less expensive than a defensive one.
That good fences always pay better than
lawsuits with neighbors.
That hay is great deal cheaper when
made in the summer, than purchased in the
winter
That horse that lays his ears back and
looks lightning when any one approaches
him, Is vicious. Don't buy it.
That scrimping the feed Of fattening hogs,
is waste Of grain
That diversified fowls won't lay eggs.
That educating children IS money lent at
q hundred per cent.
That one evening spent at home in study
is more profitable than ten lounging about
country taverns.
That cows should always be MIXED reg
'ularly and clean.
That it is the duty of every man to take
some good, reliable, entertaining paper, and
pay for it promptly-of course.

We clip the following from the Gallasin
Examiner Of the Stb:
On Wednesday evening last our well
known and highly esteemed citizen, Francis
k0gan, who lives near Castalian Springs,
about eight miles east of Gallatin, saw a
couple Of negroes hanging about his barn,
which is about two hundred yards from his
dwelling They kept shy Of him, and he,
being quite an old man, upwards Of seventy
years Of age, they gave evasiye answers to
his inquiries as to who they were, and what
they wanted. The negroes kept out Of his
way, ind he was unable to get any satisfa =
Jon out Of them. This was about dark
About two hours afterwards the family,
which is composed Of his venerable brother,
the old pioneer Barney Rogan, whose name
all readers Of the history OF the early settle
ment Of Tennessee, viii at once recognize,
and now in the neighboThood Of a century
old his son, Charles Rogan, a young man
Of line qualities and education, as well as q
gallant soldier during the war, with his wife
and her sister, Yonng lady from Kentucky.
Charles Rogan, desiring drink Of water,
opened. an outer door, and just as he opened
It vas struck by q negro with an axe, and
fened 10 the floor. The negro, with another
one at his back, also armed with an axe,
was making his way forward into the cham
Der, when his father, Francis Rogan, quickly
Selling his chair, pushed against them, fore
ing them without, and one of the ladies'
closed the door Mrs Charles Rogan had
the presence of mind to call out q bring the
guns, and the assassins fed, leaving the
axes behind them.
The escape Of Mr.. Rogan was almost a
miracle The blow of the murderous wretch
was aimed too high, and the poll Of the axe
Just scraping the skull and hitting his fore
head with the helye. We are glad TO hear
that the wound is not serious, though a very
ugly one. 1t was evidently the design of
the wretches to murder the whole family
If they had succeeded in their hellish attack
On the young Dir. RogaD, they counted on an
easy disposition Of two old men and the tgo
ladies. Their object was probably robbery,
as MIR. Francis Rogan was, before the war,
man Of large wealth, and although great
portion of bis fortune has been swept away,
is still rich in lands, and but little else. We
shudder to think that the designs of the
monsters might have been worse. 1t Is to
! be regretted that no one was able to iden-
tfy either of the negroes, SO rapidly did the
above transpire. We hope that no means
will be left untried to detect the black assas
sins and bring them to Justice
Here, now we have another of the thou
sand consequences of radical teaching
They have elevated the negro to deeds Of
murder, and are not guiltless of the results
| Our people must take care of themselves and
their families. They must go armed, and
never be unprepared for any emergency.
If the devil of radicalism cannot be con
trolled in any other way then wo to those
who have provoked the bloody issue.
