Fisher and Bradley.

BALTIMORE, May 1S.--This morn
ing, about two O'Clock, Mr.. Joseph
Bradley met Mr.. Fisher, late one of
the Judges of the Supreme Bench of
the District, and now District Attor-
ney in the place Of hr. Darlington,
for the first time, it seems, since the
latter left the bench, or possibly since
the former was disbarred at the in
stance of the latter. Bradley imme-
diately said to fisher, 81 told you,
sir, that / should cane you on sight,
and now III do it''-immediately
striking him with a small stick. But
the cane breaking, the parties seized
each other and fell together, when
Bradley s,Irned Fisher into the gutter,
and, getting 81 top, inflicted q blow
with his fist. AT this juncture thew
were separated. After rising. Fisher
said to Bradley that she did not de-
sire to fight a man so old" to which
Bradley answered, my purpose was
to disgrace you, and | have now done

of excitement, Of course, in the vicin-
ity of the City Hall, where it trans

snow, by st. Paul, the work goes

most cheering news from every part
of the county, and the indications are
that the entire Democratic ticket will
be elected on Thursday by a majority
as large as that which Senter received
over Stokes. Everywhere the Radi-
Gals are respondent. Now that it is
shown by the most incontestible proof
that Patrick Mulverhill is ineligible,
the whole Radical party is panic
stricken terribly disorganized. On
the other hand, the Democrats are
jubilant and confident of success. All
our nominees are eligible 10 the offices

Theodore Clay.

On the 10th inst. we published the
death of Theodore Clay, eldest son of
Henry Clay; the sad event transpir-
ing at the Lexington Lunatic Asy-
lum, after a long confinement. The
Cincinnati Enquirer thus briefly re-
cords his blighted life: At thirty
years Of age Theodore Clay was a
promising lawyer. He was the image
and the hope of the statesman whose
fame was on every tongue. 1t is true
that there were whispers of wild liv-
ing and of Indifferent morals, that
somewhat tinged the fair repute and
even darkened the future prospects of
this scion of a noble house. Still it
was hoped that these were but the re-
suits of youth, and would be cast aside
when circumstances called upon the
matured man to assert himself and
make his talent felt in the community.
1t was at this turning point in his life
that Theodore Clay began to pur-
sue, with an unwearied perseverance
that caused his friends great uneasi-
ness, a young lady of Lexington,
whom he had long loved hopelessly,

States, designed alone asa persecution
of the South and those who sympa-
thized with her, were the uniform
creation of Republicans, and uni
formly opposed by Democrats.
In order to prevent Southern citi-
zens from appealing to the courts of
the Union for their rights, an act was
passed March u, 1868, degrading the
Supreme Court. The President We
toed it, and it was passed over his
veto, every Republican in both
Houses favoring the infSmy, every
Democrat opposing it.
Throughout the whole of the mem
orable struggle between President
Johnson and the Republicans in 1867
and 1865, in which the former strove
to secure the South some share Of con-
stitutional liberty, the Republicans,
with unanimity, were our unvarying
enemies, while the Democrats, sub
ordinating their scorn of Andrew
Johnson to their love Of liberty,
were our unfaltering friends.
The tenure-of-ofiee bin, an act
avowedly introduced to punish Pres
ident johnson for too great leniency
toward the South, was passed March
,, 1867, by Republicans, and against
| the unanimous vote of the Democrats.
Every iniquity, injustice and degra-
dation of the past five years of recon-
~struction, falsely so-caIled, was con-
trived and supported, and is now de-
tended by Republicans; every feature
| of it opposed and resisted to the letter
by Democrats.
The right of the State to control the
elective franchise, the most important
political right of the Southern States
has been denied and destroyed by Re-
publicans, against the unanimous op-
position of the Democratic party.
Sagacious observers believe that the
last Presidential election was lost by
the Democracy mainly, if not exclu'
siveIy, because they chose to place as
the second name upon the State ticket,
a man who, personally, and by long
tradition, was the chivalrous and de
voted friend of the South.
Military government, the derange'
ment and destruction of State authori
ty, the municipal interferenees, the
judicial outrages, the long catalogue
of insults to our feelings and assaults
on our rights, the denial of justice.
the petty tyrannies of underlings and
the gross depravities of Overlings, the
ouartering OF hordes of alien leeche:
on us-everything that a southern
man or southern woman has suffered
from the political status of the past
five years has been the direct result
of Republicanism, and has been reso'
lutely fought by Democrats.
Such are a few of the historical fact;
of the past few years, and they, with
countless others, demonstrate that il
is a vile p~erversiOn of the truth to al
Iege that the South isno more indebt-
ed to the Democratic party than tC
the Radicals for sympathy and friend
ship. Democrats have always beer
the friends of the Constitution, and
consequently the friends of the South
Let the people of Shelby county sus'
tain this grand old party on Thurs
day next by voting for the Democratic
nominees and against the Radicals,

people.

The Legislature Preparing for a Defense Of
the Frontier.

From the San Antonio (Texas) Herald Of
the l4th.l
AS the friend of the suffering from
tier people, we were prompt in ex-
pressing the qualification we felt at
the early action of the Legislature
looking toward a more efficient pro-
lection. But why does that body not
speedily consummate its plans? Will
it take three months to begin? That
number of days should have suficed
for the passage of the bill, and three
more for the opening of recruiting
offices in our frontier counties, and
ten days closed them by an order of
the bugle sounding "the assembly,
Will the Legislature dilly daily along
until two or three moons enable the
Indians to take the balance of the
stock left west of the San Antonio. If
so that body might as we'll drop the
subject at once. Blythe by, while we
think Ofit-we will here remark, let
nothing in any bill organizing State
troops for frontier defense seek TO put
them under the control of United
States officers, or any one else but
their own officers in command. Tex
ians, and especially those living on
the frontier, have a way of fighting
of their own, and whether this way is
polite or not, it does not cost three
hundred thousand dollars and the
lives of three of Uncle Samuel's sol
diers for each warrior killed.

MEMS impotence sometimes ap-
proach the sublime. If brass makes
men rich, Hudson, the Radical can
didate for Criminal Court Judgeship,
is a millionaire. Twelve months ago
he was a candidate for the position he
now fills. He now abjures partisan
Judges and partisan nominations; but
then he was a partisan nominee and
one of the most bitter partisans on the
RadicaI ticket. He prated loyalty"
and opposed the Acknowledgement of
I" traitors" Now he is soliciting the
votes Of the very men he branded as
!" traitors " and would exclude from
the ballot-box. This is what we
would call cheek. In August last
there was a contest for Governor in
Tennessee. Senter favored enfran-
chisement; Stokes proposed to per-
petuate persecution and disfranchise-
ment. Hudson voted for Stokes, and
yet he has the face to expect the votes
of the men he voted to prescribe!
