Personal I'VE are pleased to learn that
w. H. Bowman, of the Whg is soon to
tedce the city on trip north. Mr.. Bow
man is rather hot as Northern Copper
head, and it is to be hoped that the trip
may have good effect. Northern Copper
headism and Southern Conservatism is
SO nearly allied, that it makes but little
difference where this beautiful local resides.
Ex-senator Williams, of Oregon, late
member Of the Joint High Commission,
Hon. j. III. Platt, and Hon. A. b. Mullett.'
supervising architect of the Treasury De-
partment, have just arrived in this city
from Washington, on business connected
with the new buildings to be erected for the
Interior, War, and Navy Departments.
Mr.. Platt, as usual, prefers the claims of
Virginia, and is anxious to secure every
possible aid to develop the material re-
sources and advance the interest of his
adopted State.

The City Council and ats Incompetent
Clerk.--This body will meet again on Mon.
day next, at which time we would suggest
the election of a competent clerk, or stil
the present one up with a long pole. The
President would be greatly assisted by a
change, and considerable time and unne-
cessary labor saved. In all bodies of like
character it is the custom of the clerk tc
have the roll of members, alphabetically
arranged, but in this body, the Incompetent
has the name of General Anderson alone
SO arranged which is followed by Smith OF
Jones, we don't remember which. .ssa
We beg the gentlemen to strengthen his
many official weaknesses just enough te
make visitors less nervous, or do like John
son-resign at the request Of somebody.

Serious Accideat-A Child Falls from a
.Second-Story Windom. om.---Between three and
four O'Clock yesterday afternoon, a little
boy, son Of Mr.. Sampson Pike, living on
Main street, between Nineteenth and Twen-
tieth, fell from one of the rear second-story
windows down into the cellar area, receiv-
ing very serious, and it is feared fatal, in
jnries. He fell a distance of about thirty
feet, and but for falling on one Of the steps,
which led down into the area, he must have
been dashed to atoms on the bricks. The
step on which he fell was heavy pine one,
and the force with which he struck it was
so great as to break il. DIR. Dickey, tho
family physician, was instantly sent for
and rendered prompt medical attention
The little fellow suffered greatly last
night, and we understand to-day his condi-
ton is considered most critical. The mju-
ries received are mostly about the head.

The Rev. DIR. Crary, edito: oil

The Rev. DIR. Crary, edito: Of
the CentralChristian Advocate,
st. Louis, has just returned
from an extended Southern
tour. The last number OF his
paper contains his report of
what he saw and heard during
his sojourn there. The honesty
of DR.. Crary is above suspicion.
and not being a politician, his
testimony is doubly valuable.
The following paragraph sums
up the whole case, and fairly
represents the actual situations:
Northern men with North.
ern sentiments have not been
safe in the South for the last
twenty years. They are not
safe now. That is what they
mean when they say one will
be protected If he will mind
his, own business. His bust.
ness is to think as they do, and
if he ventures to have opinions
of his own, and to carry out his
own religious, moral and poll /.
ical convictions, he is in dan.
ger Of being summarily shot or
hang. This the South doubt
less does not see in its true
light.
We believe there is an ut.
ter Inconsistencies of any in>
consistency in their assurance
Of safety and their declarations
Of facts. One man was giving
us the most unqualified assur-
ances that all classes of immi,
grants would be safe in the
South, but in the same conver.
saion related with approval,
circumstances wherein often
sive carpet-baggers had been
warned to leave and obliged to
do So"
