And force reluctant man to ventilate?"

A Fight for Life.

The Liberty (Ill.) Tribune reports the
following:
Near Harlem, in this county, @ we'll
dressed and respectable-looking woman
was walking along near drove of Tex
as cattle, which were being driven by.
One of the animals, COW, got separated
from the drove and met the woman.
The COW attacked the woman, pushed
her down, and was thrusting her with
her horns. when she was discovered by
Mr.. Henry White, who, seeing the
womsn's perilous condition, rushed up
and commenced beating the COW over
the head with the butt of his whip.
This only infuristed the COW more, 30
that she threw the woman with her
horns into a ravine-and followed her
still thrusting, unmindful of Mr.. Will
bite her antagonist. About this time,
Mr.. Andrew Foley discovered them and
ran up with billet of wood, and COM
menced beating the cow with all his
might. This had the effect to turn the
attention of the COW from the woman
to Mr.. Foley. She closed in with him
he, being unable to use his stick anv
longer. grappled her by the horns. Mr..
Wilhite joined in this death struggle, and
while it was going on managed to get
out his pocket knife and cut the cows
throat-and so the fight ended. Our in
formsnt says that the lady. except some
bruises is comparatively unhurt.

There are people in Wyoming Terri
tory who are not satisfied with the result
OF their interesting experiment in the
matter of woman suffrage, and there is
now pending, in the Territorial Legisla-
ture, bill repeating the law under
which women vote and hold office, ON
the ground that the system is productive
Of more evil than good. OF course such
a bill can never be passed without strong
opposition, and hence we are likely, in
the heated debates which must ensue, to
hear the exact truth about the practical
working of female suffrage. whatever ii
may be, and full showing of truth is
healthful at all times.

State Convention of Colored Men.

The State Convention of Colored Men. a
call for which We have heretofore publish
ed, met on "Wednesday last.
The Convention was organized by select
ing DIR. Ed. Shaw, of Memphis, as tempo
rary Chairman, and j. NJ. Shelton, OF
Nashville, as Secretary pro tenn. A com
mittee on credentials was appointed, who
reported the names of delegates represent

and West Tennessee. A permanent or
ganization was then made, as follows: For
President, William Butler; Vice Presi-
dents, ID. L. Lapsley and Ed. Shaw; Sec
retaries, Samuel Lowery and Winter
Woods. After appointing committees on
the various subjects of Importance to come
before the Convention, an adjournment
was taken until Thursday, on which day
the appointment of committees was COM
pleted, and the time profitably occupied
IN listening to several able addresses from
different delegates. On Friday the Com
mittees on Education, Outrages, and Con-
tracts made their reports, which were
adopted.
The Convention closed its labors on Sat-
urday at noon, having accomplished much
in the way of laying valuable information
before the country in regard to the condi-
lion of the colored population of this State.

A Gang Of Armed and Masked Outlaws
Make Raid on Frankfort and Release q
Especial to the Courier-Journal.l


FRANKFORT, Feb. 26.-On Saturday
morning, before daybreak, body of armed
men, masked, and variously estimated at
from fifty to two hundred, rode into Frank
fort.
( They were evidently posted as to, the
status of everything, for they separated in
squads and succeeded in arresting the vari-
Gus policemen who were on duty. The
night was rainy and dark, which favored
their design. After they had everything
arranged they repaired to the JAIL One

that they had prisoner that they had
brought with them for confinement. The
outer door was opened and two or three of
The taller got up and came Gown, not sus-
pecting He carried his pistol in his hand.
But as he reached the bottom of the stairs
he was seized from behind and securely
bound The keys were then taken from
him and the prisoner who was arrested
some time since for the murder ofa negro
boy, in Frankfort, was released, and the
troop made off. vi-Dr 3s
TIE whole affair was carried forward so
quietly as to arouse no one, and there were
not dozen persons in Frankfort who
knew that anything extraordinary had
happened until breakfast time. There is
not much excitement, though there is a
great deal of talk and idle speculation.
The general feeling expressed is that such
things ought to be put down, but no one
seems to know how.
Three or four nights ago there was a
rumor that the KukluX would come in,
and an extra guard was mounted and espe
cial precautions taken. But no one APP
pearing, this measure of safety was aband-
oned. The marauders were evidently fully
advised.

week remains of the 41st, Congress, and
that will be principally occupied in a
struggle to save the appropriation bills, to
the exclusion of nearly everything else.
The Senate is SO far behind in that particu-
lar that nearly five hundred bills on its
calendar will be lost, while nearly a
hundred in the House must meet the same
fate. Among these are all the measures
relating to the internal revenue system,
the tax on cigars and tobacco, the aboli-
ton of the franking privilege, the land grant
to railroads, except possibly the Southern
Pacific, which is pending in conference,
the dozen steamship subsidy bills, the in
come tax repeal, all the bills relating to
our foreign affairs, all the schemes for the
revival of American ship building, the
naval line and staff bill, the bill to abolish
the grade of admiral, the bills amending
the natinal bankrupt law, the project to
reorganize the post-office department, to
consolidate the Indian tribes and create
the new Territory of Uskalama, TO provide
for the admission of Utah and New Mexico
as States, for an airline railway hence to
New York, to create national system of

GREENEvILLE, Tenn, Feb q.
MesSrs. Editors Of the Chronicle: e.
In glancing over your paper of the sd
inst, observed local notice of the trial
of Ryburn Freeman; (of color which took
place recently at this place, on charge of
being accessory to the crime of placing an
obstruction on the East Tennessee andVir-
ginia Railroad, near Blue Springs, in this
county, thereby causing the death of Thos
Carlton and the severe scalaiug of Macon
| McNabb. do not desire to be trouble
some, but will ask you to make the follow
ing correction: Ryburn Freeman was
first jointly indicted with Charles Smith
the former as accessory before the fact to
the murder of Thomas Carlton in the first
degree. and the latter as principal. Both
were convicted and sentenced to the peni-
Tertiary for life. Freeman's case only was
appealed to the Supreme Court, and the
Judgment of the court below reversed and
the prisoner renlanded to be tried on a new
indictment to be drawn in accordance with
the section of the Code that makes it MUIR
der in the second degree to throw a rail-
road train off the track, if any one is killed
thereby. This new indictment was drawn
and found true bill by the grand jury,
and at this stage your humble servant sue
ceeded to the case. He was tried, convict
ed and sentenced to ten years imprison
ment in the penitentiary. Another appeal
was taken to the Supreme Court, and
another reversal obtained. The Court
simply remarking that there twas error
in the second" and remanding the cause
for new trial. On this last trial the con-
fessions of Charles Smith were ruled out,
which left only few disconnected cir
| cumstances upon which to base the ac-
cusation against Ryburn Freeman. The
| record Of the conviction of Charles Smith
was then offered to prove the guilt of said
fSmith as principal, but this was ruled out,
on the ground that the Supreme Court had
said that he, Charles Smith, was convicted
of murder in the first degree, when he
ought to have been indicted and convicted
if convicted at all, of murder in the Sec
ond degree. Nearly all testimony having
been thus swept away, the case of Ryburn
dence to convict him.

BLACK WALNUT PoLIsH.-In the last
volume of the RnruL Ne,O Yorker, page
Ill, we gave an excellent recipe for making
polish for black walnut furniture. The
materials named are not always to be had
in country drug stores, but a good substi-
tute can be made of beeswax and spirits OF
turpentine. 1t should not be too thick,
but merely enough beeswax put in to fill
up the pores of the wood and give it a
smooth surface. This polish is used for
waxing hard wood floors, as well as re-
touching old furniture, especially that
made of black walnut and not highly
finished with varnish. The solution of
beeswax and turpentine should be applied
with a cloth and rubbed down smooth.
