On Sunday and Sunday night We had prob
ably the most oppressive weather ever expe-
rienced in this city. Not in consequence OF
the great heat, for the Thermometer went up
to only 96o, which is not the maximum by
several degrees, but the oppression proceeded
from the great per cent of humidity in the
atmosphere, more than was ever noticed be-
fore with like high temperature. Under
such conditions evaporation from the surface
of the body is slow, and as evaporation is
cooling process, the vapor that should carry
GA the heat remains on the skin, hence >
greater degree of heat and lassitude. Had
il been working day, We should probably

similar to the conditions here on Sunday,
couD de sa,id occur when the thermometer
reaches above 81, but here none have ever
occurred below 1859, and no fatal cases be-
low lO5o. Such climatic combinations are
very unfavorable TO the invalid; promote
and diffuse epidemics, from all of which We
have hitherto been exempt. We are indebted
to Maj. Hawn for the above.

Further accounts of the killing of
Abijah Gridlcy, at Warsaw, says he was
a man of some property, but much fear

became so intolerable that they banded
against and caught him. There were
several cases of robbery against him in
court, and he threatened the lives OF
witnesses, finally killing Joseph North.

The Place to Make a Home.

There is no vegetable production ne
cessary to the welfare and happiness Of
man that will not grow and do well IN
the Southern States. Even the rare and
delicate fruits of the tropics may and
do find home within the warm en-
brace of the gulf coast. From the
green pastures of Maryland, Kentucky,
Missouri, with their prolific lands
across the fertile fields of Virginia,
Tennessee and the Caroinas with their
picturesque mountain scenery; to the
rich and ineXhaustible fields of the guilt
States. and the trans-Mississippi terri
tory of Arkansas, upper Louisiana and
Texas, will be found every variety OF
soil required for any desired kind OF
agriculture. Cotton, tobacco, the sugar
OLA and rice are at home from one end
OF this broad domain to the other eacl

reaches the highest perfection. Indian
corn, wheat, rye, oats, barley, grow well
every where. Clover, lucerne ard the
grasses flourish in nearly all localities

Preservation of the Public Peace.

In the House of Representatives on
the 18th, Mr.. Martin, from the Judiciary
Committee, made the following report /:
"Your committee to whom has been
referred House joint resolution con-
cerning certain outrages said to have
been committed in Franklin county,
and House resolution asking your COM
mittee to report what, If any, legisla-
| ton was necessary to clothe the Gov
ernor with authority and power to exc
cute the laws of the State. have had the
same under consideration and respect
| fully report that with the exception of
an occasional disturbance here and there
in different portions of the State, local
in their character, and attributable alone
TO local influences and not to any defect
in the law Of the land, they find the
State in profound peace. The newly
elected Executive. together with all the
officers in authority, are believed TO be
sufficiently clothed with power to exc
! cute the laws and promote the public
good.
THE public mind is inclined to peace
and TO the unqualified condemnation of
violence ofevery character. aud if in any
county or portion of the State due exc
cuiion of the laws has been arrested by
violence, the perpetrators of such often
ses are the representatives alone Of their
own unholy purposes. and find no ap-
proval in the eyes OF the community of
| the State.
"The Legislature recently assembled
fresh from :he people is pledged to con-
scrvativc legislation, and to the preser-
walton and promotion of the public
good. We will not depart from our
, pledges nor fail to redeem them.
"GOur committee respectfully ask
that this report be adopted, with tho
following joint resolution in lieu Of

the protection ofevcry citizen in the ful

Beautiful Thoughts.

The following occurr in discourse
on the Chicago fire delivered at Lof1s-
vile by the Rev. Mr.. Haywood. The
eloquent divine is speaking of the full
and liberal manner in which the exi-
gences Of the sufferers had been re-
sponded to:
OF all the powers of nature which
man has been permitted measurably to
understand and to call into his service,
none is finer, subter, more weird and
mysterious, than the electric and there
is deep, thrilling interest in the thought
that when one of the great elemental
powers was defying mans 6ffopfs and
laughing them to scorn, and with its
hot breath was melting away his solid
est possessions, this other power, finer,
greater, more pervasive, lent itselfglad-
~, unreServedly to man, to become the
minister and agent of the finest, divin-
est power of his soul on his holy, god
like work of rcvivipg. through eflec-
tive kindness, heart, hope and recrea-
tive energy.
When such powers Of mind, such
energy, such strength Of will, and such
powers of heart, such sympathy and
love, are called forth in the very hour
Of desolation. how grand, how God
like these mental, moral, spiritual for
ces become. The elements may melt
with fervent heat, but there are powers
greater than the elements. and they pro-
claim the nature to which they belong

himself they cannot harm. Hence the
undying faith in God: the sweet, deep
trust in Him, in the very face Of calami-
! ties that seem in their terriblcncss to de-
ny an unfailing, ,all-comprehending di-
vine providence. In the powers that
men are enabled themselves to put forth
in such timcs-times that try souls to
the utmost-and in the self.dcnying
love and sympathy by which the spirit
Of brotherhood is revealed, and all hui
manity finds Itself kin. they feel and see
the presence Of nature not of earth
and time, but spiritual and immortal, q
nature that bespeaks relationship close
and inseparablc to the spiritual universe
and to God, the Father OF souls.

Rape and RetributiOn.

Two negroes who had been guilty OF
ravishing white women in Bedford
county last week, were taken from the
officers who had them in custody, by a
crowd of indignant citizens, and hung
to the limb Of n tree until dead. We
don't care to publish the details. but eX-
press an earnest and sincere wish that
all perpetrators of such outrages may
be similarly disposed of-Kuklux law
or no KukluX. Such crimes are of al.
most daily occurrence in some sections
Of the country, and those who screen the
villains from prompt and swift retribu'
ton by raising q morbid howl about law
and order. arc not entitled to much more
consideration than the real criminals

Legislative.

A resolution has been adopted in the
Senate to raise joint committee to in
vestigate the accounts of Comptroller
Pennebaker in regard to certain Mem
phis city coupons. The bill to reduce
the salary Of the Attorney General OF
the State was rejected on its third read
ing. Bill to allow females to hold the
Office of State Librarian was rejected on
recommendation of the committee that
it was unnecessary.
In the House bill was introduced to
give the courts power to tax prosecu-
tors with the costs in certain cases; al
so, u bill to abolish jurics in civil cases
except where demanded. Senate joint
resolution expressing the sense of the
General Assembly in favor of reduc-
ton in taxation, and instructing the
Committee of Ways and Means to bring
in bill looking to that end, was taken
up, and, after an animated debate, was
indefinitely postponed by q vote Of 81
to 2G. The bill in reference to the fees
ofrcgstcrs was rejected but subsequent
ly re-refcrred to committee.
The bill to allow an additional JUS
ticc of tho Peace in the First Civil Dis
trict of Monroe county, has passed its
third reading in the Senate. The bill
to restore peace and prevent prosecu-
tions for otlcnses committed during the
late war; with the exception of murder
and rape, was laid on the table-ayes lG,
noes 3.
In the House, the bill to establish q
Circuit and Chanccry Court in Monroe
county has passed its third reading. A
bill was introduced providing that the
tax on land and other property, and the
adj valorem tax on merchants, be leduc-
ed from sixty to forty cents on every
hundred dollars worth of taxable pro-
perty.

Row at Nashville.

The Nashville Banner of the 18th had
the following account of the Brown
Prosscr muss:
Yesterday at noon a personal rem
contre occurred OH the corner Of Deade-
rick and Cherry streets, between j. II.
Brown. Esq. and Col. W. f. Prosser,
Postmaster of this place, in which the
latter was felled with cane in the
hands of the former. The occasion of
the collision, we are informed, was an
article in last Mondays issue of the
Tennessee Iribune, q weekly Republic
can paper of this city, charactcrizing
certain statements in a recent speech of
Mr.. Browns father (ex-Governor Neill
S. Brown rs wiliully and knowingly
false. Having learned that Colonel
Prosserwas the author of the article,
Mr.. Brown, on meeting him. de-
manded to know if that information
was correct, and receiving an answer in
the affirmative the result was as above
stated.
We understand that few hours pre-
vious Neill S. Brown. jr.. Clerk of the
House of Representatives. had also ac-
costed Col. Prosser on Cherry Street,
and having an admission from him that
he was the author of the newspaper ar
ticle in question. denounced him per-
Sonally, and a collision was prevented
by the intervention Of bystanders.

Business.

The st. Louis Democrat has the fol-
lowing sensible remarks upon the busi-
ness outlook:
All capital loaned to the busy masses
will be called i'll and for time will
cease to circulate in the localities where
it has so long been in use. Hundreds of
people who have laid out plans based
upon credit, and who have progressed
to a certain extent with them, will be
forced to abandon them, and lose what
ever money they have thus far invested.
Their losses will react upon others de-
pendent in some sense upon them as
help. and thus the influences of the APP
palling calamity which has beiallen our
sister city will mcasureably permeate
all branches of society. When storm
is reasonably certain prudent mariners
take in sails. and we therefore think ev-
cry one should be practiced, and business
men everywhere should act with pru-
denCe and iiorethought.

A Warming to SeGucers,

The Memphis Acalanche says: A
good thing! The action of the grand
jury in acquitting Gen. Browne. A jury
of his peers would do so, and why put
the county and State to the cost of an
expensive trial? Sensible men: and the
warning to seducers, in the action of the
grand jury, will give society the protcc-
ton which is demanded' Browne. it
will be remembered, few months ago
shot and killed the scduccr of his
daughter.

President Grants Salary.

The New York SIN. which has pas
sion for saying something nice and Gle
yer about His Excellcncy. President
Grant, thus refers to proposition to in
crease his salary:
It has been proposed that President
Grant should have salary Of hun
dred thousand dollars Il year, on the
ground that twenty-five thousand is not
enough to maintain the dignity Of his
Office. Considering how Grant has Ap-
pointed men to most important places
in return for presents given to himself,
and how he has quartcrcd his worthless
relations upon the public treasury, we
don't see how he could keep up the Dig
nifty Of the Presidency even on salary
of a million year. Dignity is moral
quality. and Grant seems to have no mo-
raj sense left. However, it would be
worth while to give him any sum he
might wish ifhc would agree to leave oil
taxing presents, and to provide for the
necessities of his worthless relations
out of his own handsome fortune. But
without some such guarantee on his
part, his salary is large enough as it is
any way, he has got rich on it.

The Texas Election,

According to the latest reports the
democrats have carried the Texas cleo.
ton by acclamation. Tho whole popu.
laton of the State appear to have risen
up as in a common cause against the
corrupt ring of the carpct-baggcrs
which now holds the State. A cotcm.
porarv says, in Texas, and other South.
crn States, the carpet -baggers have beer
learning too fast the financiering Of
Tammany Hall, and so. with the frs
chance of the taxpayers and of tho
people generally to get at them, down
they 90.

The Condition.

Referring to the subject of taxation
the Nashville Banner says:
The Legislature is pretty much in the
condition of the man and the bov in the
fable, who undertook to bring the dom
key to market and satisfy all conflict
ing opinions. While taxpayers are
complaining to have to pay too much,
the disbursing officers answer back that
much of what is paid is worthless pa
per. AnG this is the problem for lcgis-
lative solution, with reputation every
where denounced, State bonds going
down and new issue going up.

Grants KulSluX Order.

The New York Eapress says: The
last KukluX order means that General
Grant, stunned by the announcement of
10000 Democratic majority in Texas,
and, despairing of carrying the South
ern States by fair means, has resolved to
carry them by any means. The new re-
bellion against the tputh will fairly be-
gin in few days, and continue with
more or less vigor until the elections
