THE TENNESSEE ELECTION. cleo
tion in Tennessee will take place in Au-
gust. The controversy is the most bitter
of any that has occurred for long time.
The candidates for Governor, Messrs. SEN
ter and Stokes, have been engaged in can
vassing the State, generally in company in
the Old Western and Southwestern style
and their two factions are, of course, more
intensely hostile to each other than either
of them ever was toward the Democrats.
Meantime, while the Republicans are
fighting each other, the Democrats have
nominated no State ticket, but have quiet
ly set aside the several Stokes and Senter
candidates for the Legislature, and put up
men of their own. In the present condi-
ton of affairs, therefore, it is likely that
the next Legislature of Tennessee will be
Democratic. As it has United States
Senator to elect, it is obvious that the
Democrats are in fair way to secure all
the advantages of the fight.

AN Enormous FARM.--A Lafayette Qn-
diana) correspondent writes to the Gin
cinnati Gazette that there is corn field in
Benton county, Ind. of seven thousand
acres, in good condition and growing
splendidly. This field is to be found on
the farm of Adam Earl, Esq. who resides
in Lafayette. The same correspondent
adds:
"Mcssrs. Earl Il Fowler have farm Of
thirty thousand acres in Benton county,
in one body, well watered, and with per-
manent improvements, having one hundred
and forty miles of hedge fence and sixty
five miles of board fence, thirty dwelling.
houses for tenants, three blacksmith shops,
&c. To cultivate the corn lands one hun
dred and sixty-nine one and two-horse
plows were kept in daily use, and on the
pasture lands forty-one hundred head of
cattle are now feeding for the New York
market, and will be shipped this fall by
rail. Messrs. Earl and Fowles give their
personal supervision to the farm, besides
attending to their separate interests, the
former jobbing merchant and the latter
banker"

FATAL AccIDENT.-The Philadelphia
Ledger furnishes the following painful
intelligence. Mr.. Howell is well known to
many of our citizens and is connected with
several families in this neighborhood.
Albert B. Howell, son of Mr.. VIM. How
ell, residing at Thirty-fourth and race
streets, was accidentally killed on Monday
afternoon by the discharge of gun in the
hands of his brother Edgar. The painful
occurrence took place under these circum-
stances: A lad who resides in the neigh
borhood put loaded gun in an outhouse on
Mr.. Howel's place, and Albert obtained
it against the wishes of Edgar, who under
took to wrcst it from him. In doing SO
the load was discharged, taking effect in
the lower part of the face, causing a terrible
wound and instant death. Albert was
eleven years old, Edgar is thirteen. The
parents were at Cape May, and returned to
the city upon the sad intelligence reaching
them

A writer on the wing thus assails the
fashionable follies at Saratoga -

OF course everything is done in "style" at the
springs. Ifyou want to move in 'good'' society
here you must do things according to the style; !;
you must walk in style, talk in style, eat in style,
everything but your own little self. 1t will not
do to be natural. Naturalness is questionable
We visited some of the principal hotels and saw
some of the most superb combinations of softness
and silks, nonsense and broadcloth, in the shape
of men and women. 1t is surprising what res
pectable rottenness gathers at our fashionable
watering places 1t is an outrageous libel on the
God of nature to find humanity so burdened with
cruel distortions, and all the beauty of natural
ness lost in the mannerisms of what is falsely CALI
ed good society. We make but little doubt that
more than three-fourths of the visitors at these
fashionable resorts come not for recovery of health
hut to spread themselves in all the extravaganza
of "hjph life"

The HIGH PRICE OF CoAL.-It is now
well understood that the high price of an
thracite coal is the result of combination
between the collieries The so-called
strikes of the present season, were the re-
suits of an arrangement, previously agreed
upon, to that end. What is the duty of
the public in this case. First, to protect
itself against these extortioners. An in
dignant cry for the repeal of the tariff on
coal has been raised, so that Canada coal
can be imported, and Congress dare not
turn deaf ear to this appeal This, how
ever, will not afford relief in time for the
next winter. Let every one resolve to use
as little of this fuel as possible. Let those
who can do SO use wood, and let those who
have kept up two or three fires, dispense
with all but one. Where there are base
ments to houses, use drums in chambers and
sitting rooms. Let those who can do so,
substitute bituminous for anthracite coal,
and in everyway possible, seek to thwart
the purposes of this consummate villainy,
which is not whit better than highway
robbery.

Across THE NIAGARA ON A VELoc1pEpp

ACROSS THE NIAGARA ON A VELocIpEDE.
Prof. Andrew Jenkins, sometimes called
the Canadian Blondin, tight rope per-
former of celebrity, about the goth of Au-
gust, intends to essay most perilous feat,
nothing less than crossing the fearful chasm
of Niagara river below the falls by means
of a velocipede ridden over tight rope
The place of crossing will be short dis
tance below the old Suspension bridge,
where the length of the spanning cable
will be about one thousand feet. The ve-
hicle used by the daring velocipedo-fun-
ambulist is of peculiar construction. The
wheels are grooved, and it is propelled by
the hands, balance-pole being carried on
the feet. By this means Prof. Jenkins
says he can surmount considerable grade.
Nothing of the sort has ever been attempt-
ed in public, and the novelty and danger
of the feat will doubtless attract a great
crowd to witness the trial.

More EIghting in Cuba.

Again we have intelligence that the pa
triots have fought battles and gained VIC
tories in Cuba. The first fight took place
between the forces of Generals Jordon and
Figuerdo, and the Spanish troops comman-
ded by La JORGE. A most decided victory
was won by the former, the Spanish army
being not only beaten, but routed. Sub
scquently, the Spanish General Pueblo was
defeated by the patriots, and it is rumored
that his son and a considerable body of the
Royal forces joined the revolutionists after
the fight. From other portions of the is
land like favorable rumors have reached
this country, and as they are not contradic-
ted by the Spanish press at Havana, their
truthfulness may be accepted. 1t is now
quite evident that the tactics of General
Jordon are producing good fruits in Cuba.
He has introduced a commendable degree
of discipline into the patriotic fol ces,
taught them to use their arms with rapid
ty and effectiveness, and thus equalized,
in measure, the disparity of numbers
which exists between the friends of liberty
and the defenders of tyranny and misrule.
Besides this, each week numbers of vete-
ran soldiers from this country find their
way to Nassau, from thence to Cuba, and
are soon incorporated into the liberating
forces. These men inspire the Cubans
with confidence on the field, steady the
column in battle, and act as sharp-shoot-
ers to pick off artillerists and officers dur
an engagement. Thus strengthened and
encouraged, the patriots are pushing on
the contest with zeal, courage and devo-
tion. Spain cannot retain control of the
island. 1t must be surrendered. Sooner
or later the flag of free Cuba will float from
the Moro. De Rodas has announced that
it will take an army of one hundred thous-
and men to re-establsh and solidify the
authority of Spain in Cuba, while in the
mother country the best informed states.
men admit that the independence of the
island cannot be prevented.

KENTUCKY ELECTION. success of
the Democratic ticket in Kentucky is
complete. j. w. Tate, for State Treasu-
rer, will have from 40, 900 to As, 900 ma
jority. 1t is thought that not moro than
fifteen or twenty Republicans will be cleo
ted to the Legislature. There were some
disturbances in Louisville, in which pis-
tolls were used, but no lives were lost.
The returns from the Alabama election,
although meagre, are so far favorable to
the Democrats. Parkinson and Mann,
Democrats, are elected to Congress. A
negro mob seized upon the polls in Bald
win county, beat white man severely,
and prevented any negroes from voting the
Democratic ticket.
Tennessee voted on Thursday. Senter
elected by $4,000 majority; both branches
of the Legislature Conservative.

The NJ Y Tribune has come out strong
ly against any Interference with the results
of the Virginia election. The CONNER
cial feeling of the North is anxious, for
settlement of affairs in the South, upon
a basis that will give some reasonable hope
of permanence. The theory that the ne
groes are to rule the South, and a radical
Senate rule the negroes, is found to be i'm
practicable; and the very negroes themselves
are erepudiating the plan fthe NJ. Il. Church
and the Sumner and Boutwell, faction, to
fuse the population south into a soft yellow
mass of ductile humanity. We know not
what is before us, but the South has ap-
parently seen the worst of bad legislation.
The prospect of Chinese immigration has
frightened the Radicals and the negroes
out of their first great principle, the abso-
lutte equality of man. 1t is in vain the
Chinaman will ask, Gam not man and
a brother? ?" The hypocrisy of the North on
the subject is becoming visible even to it
self. But John Chinaman will come, new
ertheless. New England wants cotton,
and as the Freedmen do not choose to make
it, the Asiatic will. Whether for better
or worse, we do not pretend to say, the
immigration is inevitable, whatever
checks the present Government may put
upon it.-Episcopal Methodist.

PoTAroEs Those who planted large
crops of potatoes have reason to be discour-
aged at the very low price they are bring
ing in market. We heard of gentleman
who shipped lot few days ago to his
commission merchant in Baltimore, and
had to remit an amount of money to de-
fray the expense of freight, the potatoes
not bringing enough to pay for it. Capt
Wilson, of the steamer Maggie, purchased
in Baltimore four barrels of potatoes for 50
which he brought to this place to feed his
hogs upon. = Suo'o Hill Nd, Messenger
