R6yThe communication in another col
umn, using such epitheis as green from
the States" aud similar expressions, was
written by a friend Of our late Represen'
tative in Congress. So far MS its intent
to defend that Representative is concerned,
the HERALD is bound TO approve it. But
we cannot approve ''green from the States,
"recently from the midnight conclave oil

are undigaifed, unkind, and false in point
of fact. One against whom the latter
charge has been made has n good heart,

will one day write his name with the orna'

tS- There is, in this paper, list OF the
names of tho members Of "The Young
Mems Democratic Club of Dallas" Being
aware of the fnct that some will contend
that every one whose name is In the list is
committed to opposing the nomination Of
Mr.. Conner, we have deemed it an act Of
Justice to shy that many members Of the
Club, whose names appear in the list, who
are as good Democrats as any ones, voted
against the nti-Conner resolutions appear
ing as adopted by the Club. Some Of
these are appended to protest against the
resolutions which we have published in
another column. The list was never or
dered to be published by the Club, but was
sent in on the promise Of the junior editor
that they should appear. We see no i'm
propriety in their publication, as q good
evidence Of which we point to our own
name among them. The Club might be
Democratic either supporting or not sup
porting Conner; but we submit, rs the
opinion Of the HERALD, that the abusive
terms used in the resolutions published at
the request Of o number OF the club will
not be endorsed ct the meeting Of the De-
mocracy Of the county as their voice in
regard to one who has nobly sustained the
character of q Democratic Represen tative
in the halls Of Congress.

pBThat there is o movement now on
foot to defeat the nomination of the Hon
John c. Conner by the Democratic Gen.
ional convention, to meet in July, il
evident enough from the resolutions of the
Democratic Club and communications we
have admitted into this issue. We have
no doubt the charge against our late Rep
resentativs, that he voted against an am.
nesty bill for the purpose Of preventing
Ex-Governor James W. Throckmorton from
rivaling him before the District convention,
will be explained to the satisfaction Of all
candid men in due time. This charge Is
boldly made, but, rs yet, we have seen no
proof Of its truth. While we yield to no
one in real friendship to Governor T., we
cannot see that fealty to him or any other
man should be q test Of ones political or
thodoxy. We still hold OF our masthead
the name ef John c. Conner, like himself,
however, pledging ourselves to abide the
decision Of the July convention. When
Gov. Tbrockmorton shall have become ell
gible and shall desire Office, there is hardly
position in the government for which We
would not eheerfully support him. We
have given more space to the matters in
issue, in this paper, than we design togire
in the future. il pains us 10 hear Demo

One of our brokers had occasion

One of our brokers had occasion
to introduce into our city the nickel
coin of one and two cent pieces.
Some wary individual conceived
the idea of a "new way to pay old
debts" and obtained some of these
soins, started for his Chinese wash
man, whom he owed just three dol
lars. John took the bright piece
with avidity, and his almond eyes
twinkled with pleasure as be collec-
ted what he feared be never would
get. After the man left John began
to sound it npon the table, and
thaught il didn't have the right
ring. So he brings it down TO the
brokers' office, and compared it with
those in the window. They looked
exactly alike. and he thought be
was right after all, but 70 satisfy
himself he asked the broker show
muehee." His countensnce fell as
the broker informes him it was but
one cent, and, after stating the cir
cumstances, went 10 look for the

Maj. JSo. T. AULr:
DEAR SIR:-In reply to your note Of this
date will say that during the recent term
of the District Court of Ellis county, was
in the Office of II. II. Sneed, editor of the
warahachie "Democrst," at different times
and politics were more than once referred
to, In friendly desultory way by US.
remember on one occasion saying to Mr.
Sneed A. d. Norton would probably be the
Republican candidate for Congress in this
District, and, by the way of pleasantly,
that If Conner had not prevented the re-
moyal Of 1hrockmorton' disabilities be
(Throck morton) might possibly be that
candidate. The above, according 10 my
remembrance, Is in substance what said
incidently relating to Mr.. Throckmorton
And what did say was q reference to
what understood to be MIR. Corners &C.
ton in Congress on the subject Of political
disabilities, and not to anything | know
about Mr.. Throck morton's political status.
l have had no communication with MIR
Throck morton touching politics or any
other subject.
- Very respectfully, ETC.,
...t.| II. l.. RAY.

STEAMBOAT EXpLosIoN.-On We'd
nesday evening last the steamer
Stoncwall, owned by Messrs. Nor
ris 4 Co., of this city, exploded one
of her boilers near the High Island
on Bolivar peninsula while on one
of her trips to Calcasicu. Three
men who were sleeping On u hatch
near the boiler were blown over
board, one of whom, a colorcd man
named Alfred was rescued by means
of a hatch thrown to him. Anoth-
or named Connolly was heard call
ing for help for about three hours
and such movable things As were
on board were thrown to him, hut
the boat being unmanageable was
not able to 40 to his relief. The
third whose name we have not been
able to learn was not heard from
after the accident. A man named
Smith was severely scaldcd and
died while being taken to the hos
pital after rcaching the city. Mrs,
Geary, wife Of the engineer, was
slightly scalded and had one of her
feet burned by falling upon the bed
of the boiler when the explosion
took place. These, we believe, arc
all the casualties which occurred.
The boat was new and very strong
as was shown by the explosion, the
first force of which was downward,
bending the deck timbcrs some
eight inches, causing its final and
most destructive force to pass up
ward, making q complete wreck OF
the entire forward portion of her
upper works. We learn, however,
that but q short time will be requir-
cd to repair the boat and put her
in running order again. She was
lowed to the city by the steam tug
s. c. Hall, Captain Jack Stables,
which was at once dispatched to
her relief when the news of her sit
uation was received.
