GENERAL ADMINISTRATION APP
peal to old line Wings when he caught
up the motto Of the extinct party and
exclaimed, / ain for "THE UNION,
THE CONSTITUTION AND THE EN-
F%ORCENlENT or THE LAWS" was an
adroit diversion by which he thought
to seduce many honest men into paths
Of error. The UNION" to which
Alcorl would lead US is not that
which, as followers Of Clay and Web
ster, we loved and venerated. The
Constitution f" which Alcorn invokes
is a foUlly perverted system of organic
law, which, with its Fifteenth
Amendment, thoroughly subverts the
relations Of Ststes to the Federal
Union; and the enforcement" Of
many laws which now defiIe Fed
eral statute books, like the civil rights
act, would make Clay and Webster
turn over in their graves. No, no,
Governor, we may admire your in
genuity, your e~lOquence, your luck
but never your abandonment of the
aultless political philosophy of i'm.
mortal men, Clay and Webster,
prophets among statesmen, and gods
among patriots.

Fall Races-Man Drowned.

NASHVILLE, October 1.-THE fall
meeting of the Nashville Blood Horse
Association opens to-day with bril-
liantly attractive programme. More
horses will start on the first race than
ever started before on a Western race
course, in the turf annals of that section.
The Young American stake for the two
year olds will have sixteen contestants,
all of which Will go. This is spectacle
unprecedented, and of itself would draw
an immense crowd Of spectators.
The great Kentucky stake will also be
a not less interesting feature. 1t is for
three year olds, two mile heat with nine
contestants, all of which will 60 for the
purse, which, in the aggregate, amounts
TO Just $500. In the third race, which
is mile and quarter dash, there will
be six contestants. Taken altogether,
the programme eclipses anything of the
sort ever presented this side of New
York.
The remains of an unknown man
were found floating down the river in the
rear of Capt. Joseph Ambroses resi-
dence, below the railroad bridge, last
Sunday afternoon. The body was
clothed in blue blouse and light gray
pantaloons, with black soft-felt hat still
clinging to its head.

Young Girls Attacked by "a Siberian
bloodhound.


New York, October lion Sunday
afternoon two young women, named
Catherine Brady and Elizabeth Mean
nulty, were fearfully cut and torn by a
ferocious Siberian bloodhound, owned
by the proprietor of Hamilton Park,
Staten Island. The girls were in the
employ of the owner of the park, and
we're walking toward home when the
animal, it appears, not knowing them,
sprang upon Miss Brady and in one bite
tore her right breast from her body.
The other girl in attempting to save her
companion was set on by the hound.
Her arm was torn in a shocking man
ner. Their lives were, however, saved
by officer Mead, who fred three balls in
TO the animals body and killed him.
Miss Brady was not expected to live till
this morning, and the other girl is in
such a precarious condition, that no
hope is entertained Of her recovery.
United States District Attorney Davis
has given orders that the owner Of the
Hornet might continue fitting her out
for the merchant service, and, if desired,
trial trip, which the vessel was pre-
vented from making, might be made,
providing United States Marshals and
their assistants are allowed on board.
The owner is having afidayits prepared
10 prove that the vessel was under no
circumstances destined for Cuba.
