The Cincinnati Gazette pertinently says:

The Cincinnati Gazette pertlnentIy says:
Noyes is carpet-bagger, according to the
En0asiref. He came here in l857-fourteen
years ago; practiced law until 1861; went
into the army as major; was advanced to
the rank of colonel; fought bravely until
part of his leg was shot away; returned to
Cincinnati; was elected by the people to an
important office, and now, with extraor-
binary enthusiasm, has been nominated for
Governor of Ohio. Will the Enquirer please
inform us how long it requires a native of
New Hampshire to reside here in order to
become a citizen of Cincinnati. in good
and regular standing! Mr.. Mueller is
another carpet-bagger. He was born in
Germany. What does the Enquirer think
of that Does it propose to revive the prin-
ciples of the Miami tribe If it proposes
anything of that kind, it had better prepare
for another departure"

The Ihel.in Banner SAYS

The crops are not so badly injured, we
are inclined to believe, as many have stated.
1t is true the leaves of the corn are generally
stripped into shreds, yet the stalk seems to
there's life in the old land yet" The bump
of wonder is pretty well developed in every
Uranium, and we are all fond of relating
the marvellous, the startling and the unsur-
passed, and, in order to get an audience,
we sometimes are sufficiently unprincipled
to give the principle of caoutchouc to the
pure and simple truth. Some think corn
will sell at five dollars per bushel next year.
We know of no larger fortune in any specu-
lation than one of that kind. Let not the
farmers be discouraged. Nature means only
to test their fortitude.

The Abbeville railroad is now on the
tapis. For our part the greater the number
of railroads in the country the better If
the land were covered with a perfect net
work of railroads so much the better for it.
The roads will have hands and employees of
other kinds, and they must be supplied
with the necessaries of life, so that numer-
track People thrown together in multi
tudes are somewhat like the thirty poor
Yankees who got rich while confined in
prison. Where the commodities of trade

fed and every one is prosperous.

THE CoRoNER's AFFIDAVIT OF MURDER
AGAINsT PETER LEwIs.-Yesterday after
Moon the Coroner made formal affidavit of
murder against Peter Lewis, Frederick
Meyer, according to the verdict of the coro-
ner's jury, having come to his death from
congestion of the brain, brought about by
blows on the face and head with a brick
and butter firkin in the hands of Peter
Lewis. A number of witnesses were exam
ined by the Coroner, all of whom lived near
the corner of Melpomene and White streets,
where the deceased met his death at the
hands of his assailant, whose object, how
ever, for the dreadful deed, did not become
apparent. In his own defense the murderer
says that the deceased threatened to shoot
and hang him several times; that on the
evening he beat him to death, Meyers had
again threatened and provoked him.
The deceased bore an excellent reputa-
ton for peace and quiet, and was not
known to be of quarrelsome disposition.
He was buried yesterday, attended to his
grave by the Jefferson Fire Company and
the society of Druids. The circumstances
of the murder, as made out by the Coroner's
investigation, are: That Lewis approached
Meyers, who was standing in the door of
the grocery on the corner, and struck him
in the face with brick, when Meyers fell
out on to the street on his face and insen-
sible. Lewis then seized butter frkin in
front of the grocery, and struck the insen-
sible man on the head with all his strength,
every blow bringing out the blood in tor
rents. He then went off, but seemed to
change his mind and came back to the
PROSTATE body, struck it again and then
jumped upon it. The blow from the brick
would alone have caused death.

The Clinton Patriot saws:

The past week has been dry and hot.
There were some rains in different quarters
of the parish, but they were by no means
general. Planters are making the most of
the favorable weather, and are trying to
catch up with the grass, which in many in
stances has much the start of cotton, owing
to the long rainy spell preventing any work
being done.
