The steamer Lady, bound to Mem
phis, from somewhere in the bends
above, struck snag on Sunday few
miles above Haile's Point, and was
run upon bar. where every effort
was made to save her, but without
avail. She was kept afoat until three
O'Clock Monday morning, when she
sunk, proving a total loss. She was
loaded with shingles, meal, lime, corn
and poultry The Lady was an old
boat, and worth not more than four
or FIVE thousand dollars. She was
purchased nearly year ago by Capt.
Ward, her commander, for 81, 800, and
was not insured.

ST. LoUIs.-The Democrat of Tues
day says:
Up to last evening, the weather
continued mild as Spring, and then
there were indications Of abundant
rains. 1t would be rather curious if
it should be so ordered that we should
in tew days have open river to Da-
venport, and ten feet depth of water
to Cairo. The swell still continued
last evening, at very slow rate, and
six feet is the estimated stage of
water to Cairo, and near four feet to
Keokuk. Yesterday there was neither
arrival nor departure at this harbor,
and no one looks for Improvement in
business before the arrival of Spring.
Meantime the January thaw would be
going on if there was anything to
thaw. but we could not see Yesterday
vestige of snow or ice, although in
the depth of Winter.
MEMPHIs.-The Ardlanche of Sun
day says:
Weather moderate. The river is
rising steadily with fifteen feet on the
bars to Cairo. White River is de-
clining slowly. with six and half feet
Ia the channel. The Arkansas is re-
ceding, with thirty inches in the
channel to Pine Bluff
Business was fair for Saturday.
The Hale left for Cincinnati with
1, $50 bales of cotton, and the Bart.

bales. a
The river is still rising, and the bar
opposite the city has entirely disap-

DEAR SIR: Although pursuing
the paths of peace, and being a rep

great valley, cannot but entertain
the highest appreciation of the honor
bestowed upon an humble Individual

Of these relics of times past. L re-

statesmen who once held them in
deadly strife, willing to sacrifice life
in defense of honor and principle,
and as a vivid reminder that true
courtesy should be the rule of life
between one and another, and, al
though called upon to look upon ev-
cry one as a brother, | cannot help
entertaining the very warmest feel
ings of regard for the distinguished
donor of these terrible mementos of
the greatest statesmen of the age.

A Wanton and Malicious Attempt at
Murder.


Murder.
On Tuesday evening last, after the Cir
Gus performances had closed, party Of in
toxicated men. unknown to US, but said to
be from Lincoln county, when they had
reached point just beyond and at the foot
Of Pond hill, about miles from town on
the Fayetteville road, attacked and shot a
negro boy Damed Henry Cosby, inhicting
two severe wounds, one in the feshy part
Of the left arm, aud the other in the left
side, the ball having lodged somewhere in
the region Of the navel. Henry has been
in the employ of the senior editor of this
paper for the past six months, and has been
remarkable for his docility aud general
good department. On the day mentioned
be had done a good days work, notwith-
standing the Circus was in town, and as he
represents to US. was quietly walking to-
wards town with the intention Of visiting
the Circus at night, when the party of men
alluded to met and halted him, demanding
to know if be had pistol. Nc satisfied
with his negative answer they diemouDted
and searched him. Then, as if chagrined
because they did not find him armed, or
could not provoke him to insolence, deliber-
slely shot him as above stated.
The same party also attacked. beat and
cut q negro boy in the employ of Mr.. Dan
lei Alternately, about three miles from town,
even going into his own yard to make the
assault.
Other parties, white men and negroes.
were forced to leave the road, by threats
from the party.
Measures have been set on foot to bring
the offenders to justice, and there is a uni
versal determination in this community to
aid the civil authorities in executing the
law. Such high handed and unprovoked
outrages viii not be suffered to go unpun-
ished in this community.

His career from Fort Donelson to the .Ap-
pomatox apple tree, shows that he was firm
chiefly in refusing battle until he felt able
to win. He would yield to drink; be
would yield to tobacco; he would yield TO
the opportunities OF favored spectators and
army sharks and drive his Jewish fellow
citizens from his military lines; but he
would never yield his consent to move on
the enemy until he outnumbered him. He
sees very clearly, now, that he beads col
umn daily weakened by desertion, and re-
cruits can neither be drafted nor oonscript-
ed; and it would not be surprising if he
showed no stomach for the contest in No
vember. He can't delay to dig canals
around that work. He is compelled to
march straight up to the time. and it is not
wonderful if he should be about to ask his
friends to count him out. If he once gets a
notion that he will be defeated, Washburne
and company will have trouble in making
him ego in.'- Union d Dispatch.

A great writer says the manners of pee
pie are even more important than their laws
or, rather. that their manners are the
source of their laws. II that be so, who
should be the representative man, Grant or
Sey To ask the question is to an
sWer it. The one is a gentleman and a
statesman the other, whatever may be said
of him, is certainly nothing outside of mill
jtary life. Admitting him to be great
military man, his present position is beyond
question the only one for which he is ft-
ted and to take him for that of the Presi-
dency, in preference to man peculiarly
qualified in every way for that position,
would be an act of madness from which the
worst possible results ought to be expected.
IF the people would show even this much
of common sense in the selection of their
public servants, the problem of self govern
ment would be solved. AS long as they
do not, the terrible evils from which the

Two Negroes Killed.

From the Knoxville Press and Herald.
On Tuesday last, two negro men were
shot and killed in Hawkins county, East
Tennessee, by I. Willis, who killed the
wretch Sizemore, some twelve months ago
It appears that these negroes went to the
house Of Mr.. Willis during his absence and
demanded something to eat of his mother
and sisters. Their demands were refused,
whenithey made their way in, against the
protest of the ladies, and proceeded to help
themselves to what they wanted. When
Willis came home, they were sitting at the
table enjoying themselves, having driven
away the ladies by certain characteristic
and brutaIly offensive remarks. A few
words suficed to explain the situation,
when he passed into another apartment,
procured double barrelled shot gun, and
returned to the dining room where the me-
groes were feasting. One started up, and
being shot, fell dead across the table the
other ran out, but was killed when barely
across the threshold.

We have carefully read the proceedings,
and studied the spirit of the late Radical
State Convention as displayed in them, but
intend to make no extended comments
Anything we should say would be but a va
ration of the phrases SO often applied to
similar gatherings. Considering the sur
rounding circumstances, and contrasting it
with the proceedings Of the late conference
of Confederate Generals assembled in this
city, and the tone of the Democratic raeet-'
ings indOrsing their action, it wears dark
er and more diabolical hue than any pre-
vious convention of the party leaders. It
breathed prescription and intolerance. It
foretokened strife and bloodshed if necessa-
ry to accomplish its purposes. It fouted
eOnclh and good will as things abhor-
red. rNeered at moderation and Justice
as cowardIy. It rudely slammed the door
to peace and order. We only wish that ev-

closed his senses to the truth could read it's
