RADICAL GATHERING AT THE GusroM-.
HousE.-The State Central Committee OF
the Republican party met at the CUSTOM
House Yesterday according to appointment
Notwithstanding the urgent appea.s in the
party organs for full attendance, Only
fourteen Of the twenty-five members OF the
committee were present. The session
though secret was protracted and stormy.
Among the prominent Radicals presentwere
Gov. Wells, Senator Lewis, Congressman
Platte and Porter, and Colonel Robert w.
Hughes.
There was great deal Of futile discus
sion, but the only business Of Importance
accomplished, and that over which there
was the most animated debate, was the re-
fusal to call State Convention. This action
was thought best In view of the discordant
elements in the party, and the certainty of
disagreeable scenes in case of the assem-
blage Of popular body. Those favoring q
Convention. however, are by no. means
satisfied with the result.
+ Since the above was written, we lear n
that the committee was Ie-cOpvep cd last
night, and. after another excited debate,
at late hour last night reconsidered their
action Of the morning, and decided to call
State Convention to be held in Rich
mond on the 9th Of September next.

A DESPERATE CAsE.-When the green
eyed monster plants his enVenomed fangs
i'm the yitals of West Tennessee youth it
is always best for the whole neighborhood
to look out for squalls. Some DAYS ago
there was dcnsely- attended wedding not
very far from Jackson, i'll that end Of the
State. Among the very few who were not
present on the occasion was n young man
who was known to be desperately III love
with the bride, and whose heart and hand
she had "rcjccted with scorn." In the
midst of the marriage ceremony the house
was suddenly shaken to its very faunda-
tions by something resembling mixture
of earthquakes and discharges of artillery.
The rejected lover, in order to be revenged,
had piled up number OF shells under the
smoke-house and touched them off with 4
train of powder.
The scene which followed the explosion
is said to have beggared description. The
smoke. house, with its several thousand
pounds of bacon, was hurled high into the
air and scattered to the four winds of hea-
ven. The bride tainted in the arms OF her
adored one, the rest Of the calico screamed,
the men swore, and for some little time the
widest CONSERVATION prevailed. Mean
while the young man, with his soul stepped
in the sweets OF revenge, took to his heels
and never has been seen since. Young Ia
dies of West Tennessee who are about to
marry should have their rejected lovers
bound over to keep out from under the
smoke house with their shells.
