somewhat noted Billy goat roamed at large the
streets of Washington, and the newspaper boys,
boot-blacks, and street-imps generally, made
common cause against him. Clay never liked
to see dumb aanin,als abused or worried, and on
one occasion, while passing down the avenue, a
at their usual sport Mr.. Clay, with his walk
ing-stick, drove them away, giving them asound
lecture in the meanwhile. As they scampered
off and scattered in every direction, Billy, see
ing no one but Mr.. Clay within reach, made
charge on him. Clay dropped his cane and
caught his goatship by the horns. The goat
would rear up, being nearly as high as the tall
Kentuckian himself, and the latter would pull
him down again. This sort of sport soon be-
came tiresome, and he could conceive of no
way by which he could free himself from the
two horned dilemma, so in his desperation he
sang out to the boys to know what to do. One
of the smallest in the crowd shouted back:
"Let go and run, you id foolP Clay, al
ways maintained that, though he signed the
treaty of peace at Ghent, yet that ragged boy
knew more than he did.

A, PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE.-The first
candidate actually nominated for the next Pres
idency is George W. Julian, the Indiana ex-
member of Congress. The Labor Reform par
tv of California has put him in the field. Ju-
liam was an original Free. Soiler. In 1852
there was a convention held at Pittsburg,
Penn, and party organized under the name
of the "Free Democracy" John P. Hale of
New Hampshire was nominated for the Presi-
dent, and George w. Julian of Indiana for
Vice President. This ticket received i'll the
Northern States 157 ,296 votes, or about one
half of one per cent of the entire popular vote
of the Union the other candidates being Gen
cral Pierce and General Scott. The party
which nominated Julian as its first Vice Presi-
Dental candidate, afterward grew to be the con-
trolling power in the country, but Mr.: Julian
was pushed aside by more vigorous politicians.
He represented Indiana in Congress for sever
al terms, but being defeated four years ago by
Democrat, retired from politics. Lattery,
however, he has exhibited disposition to take
the stump in favor of Woman Suffrage The
strong-minded can hardly do less than indorse
the action of the Labor Reformers. Mr.. JUL
ian will thus become formidable opponent
of Mrs. Victoria Woodruff, who has nomina-
ted herself as the regular Woman's Rights can
didate for the White House, and the difference
NAV prove disastrous to the harmony of the
party. As a candidate for President, Mr.. Jul
ian's friends are not expected to bet cxtrava-
gantly on his favorable prospects.

A NEGRO BANK ON THE WHITE Folks
PLAN.-Sam Johnson, of New Orleans, was a
great authority on the levee, and one day he
called his satellites together and addressed them
on the Importance of adopting a fiscal policy
more nearly resembling that which had raised
to opulcnce their Caucasian neighbors. "Nig-
gers" said he, eff you want to get rich you
must save your money. 1on must have
bank. Dats de way de white folks does."-
These words fell on a proptious soil. The
project went into swift execution, and the earn
ings of the week were promptly forthcoming.
"Niggers," says Sam, 81 will be de cashier; you
must post dc money wid-me, and when you
want any YOU must draw onto it. OATS de way

while. and the dcpositors were highly elated

IMPORTANT TO THE HOLDERS OF MUTILA-
TED CURRENcY.-It is announced by the
Treasury Department that from and after the
1st, inst defaced or mutilated United States notes
and fractional currency, instead of being re-
deemable as now ohly by the United States
Treasurer, subject to discount for mutllatlon,
will be redeemed ut their full face value in new
notes or currency by the Treasurer, the several
assistant treasurers and designated deposito-
ries of the United States, and all national bank
repositories, and will be received at their full
face value by all officers of the Treasury De-
partment in payment of currency dues to the
United States, provided that thrce-fifths of the
original proportion of the notes are presented
in one piece Fragments less than five-eights
will be redeemed only by the Treasurer of the
United States. If more than one-half and less
than ive-eights is presented, half of the face
value will be paid. Less than half note will
be redeemed only on affidavit that the missing
portion has been totally destroyed!
Under the rules any person, firm, bank, cor
poration, or public officer, will be permitted to
forward five dollars and upwards in fractional
currency, and fifty dollars and upwards. in le-
gal-tender notes, for redemption to the Treasu-
ry, by express, at the expense of the Depart
ment, under the Government contract with Ad-
ANS Express Company. Heretofore nothing
less than $500, was entitled to transportation
at Government expense. A circular embody-
ing these changes is now preparing in the
Trcasurcrs office The officers of the Treasury
are determined to remove all cause for complaint
concerning the condition of the United States
currency, and to that end have concluded to
extend to all the most liberal facilities for its
redemption.

EXPERIENCE in the use of this Guano for
H. the past six years in this State, for Cotton
and Corn, has far established its character for
excellence as to render comment unnecessary.
In accordance with the established policy of
the Company to furnish the best Concentrated
Fertilizer at the lowest cost to consumers, this
Guano is put into market this season at the
above reduced price, which the Company is en-
abled to do by reason of it's large facilities and
the reduced cost of manufacture.
The supplies put into market this season are,
as heretofore, prepared under the personal su-
perintendence of DR.. st. Julian Ravenel, Chem
ist of the Company, at Charleston, S. c., hence
planters may rest assured that its QUALITY
and COMPOSITION is precisely the same as
that heretofore sold. AT the present low price
every acre planted can be fertilized with 200
pounds Guano at a cost not exceeding the pres
cnt value of 30 pounds of cotton, while expert
ence has shown that under favorable conditions
of season and cultivation the crop is increased
by the application from two to threefold the
natural capacity of the soil. Hence, under no
conditions could its application fail to compen-
safe for the outlay. Apply to

INTERESTING TO WHIsKEY DRINKERS
The Philadelphia Price Current says that the
Western distilers have recently invented new
way of manufacturing whiskey, by means of
which peculiar strength and odor are impair
ted to the product, highly injurious to the
health of consumers, and certainly not credit
able to those engaged in its sale. Neither the
noxious Ingredients themselves nor the process
Of manufacture is known to many outside the
ring. but sufficient has leaked out to show the
character of the men and the business. Sui
phuric acid"is blended with the mash, or ap-
piled directly to the product of the stills which
imparts disagreeable odor to the whiskey
and so powerful is its effect upon it, that it cor
rodes and eats up the inside of the barrels in
which the foul compound is kept.
Another feature of this rotgut, sold under
the name of whiskeY, is that it cannot be ex-
tracted by process of distillation, re-dstllation
or recti6cation. This fact has caused its pres
ence to be traced in high wines purchased from
the West by respectable distillcrs here, and
prompted them to shut down on the nefarious
traffic as injurious to life and the best interests
of the trade. BY experiment, it has been tes-
ted that if q small piece of iron or copper is in
serted into barrel of whiskey adulterated
with this acid, the entire mass will be Instant
ly blackened; and if left in it for a short time
will evolve large quantity of acetate of cop
per verdigris. Such a compound cannot fail
to prove fearfully injurious to the public healt
if brought into general use and we are glad
to prcceive that combined effort is contem-
plated by the trade altogether. If this be not
sufficient, the consequences arc sufficiently Sc
rious to call for some legislative enactment by
which the sales of this poisonous stuff shall be
prohibited under the severest penalties.

A GALA DAY.
The Picnic Of the Young Hebrews at
James Park Yesterday.

The annual picnic of the young He
brews Of Memphis was celebrated at
James Park yesterday, and although
out-Of-door fetes Of this character have
occurred almost daily since the begin
ming of May, still the attendance was
numerous, and the pleasure which every
one on the ground manifested showed
that the young Hebrews possessed the
happy knack of showing all present
HOW TO ENJOY THEMSELVES.
The preparations of the several COM
mlttees were on the most extensive
scale, and the general arrangements
most satisfactory. Arnold's fine quad
rifle band furnished the best selections of
dance music, and as the floor
under the trees was nicely waxed,
the disciples Of Terpsichore enjoyed
themselves in the very highest
degree. The swings and shooting-gal-
leries We're also well patronized during
the day, and when the shades of even
ing began to gather round, the crowd
~perceptibly increased. The grounds were
brilliantly lighted, and the scene pre-
sented was of the most charming and
delightful character. Innocent mirth
and sweet strains of music, with dancing
dd R6itup became the order of the
night, and everything passed off most
delightfully."-. 1t is pleasing to add that
a handsome amount was realized for the
benefit of the fund for the erection of the
new Beth d EBaeth Synagogue, for which
the picnic was projected.

THE
g, L Anderson lhe Man for sherlG:

C, L. Anderson the Man for sheriff.
To the Delegates OF the Conventions:
GENTLEMEN-Permit a tax-paying
Democrat, who has no purpose to sub
serve, ave the desire to see a nan
nominated for Sheriff who can defeat
the Radical candidate, and who, if
elected, will make an honest, faithful
and efficient officer. That man is
unquestionably G. l.. Anderson.
The important position he occupies
as an officer connected with the
Memphis and Charleston railroad is
a strong recommendation in his favor,
for none but an honest, infiexible busi-
ness man can occupy the position he has
so long and satisfactorily filled. Mr..
Anderson's qualifications being con-
coded, he has all the elements OF pOpu-
larity. He is a new man; nothing can
be said against him, and by comparing
his strength with other aspirants, it will
be seen he is emphatically the nan to
defeat the Radical aspirant, who four
years ago was elected under the black
banner which drove white taxpaying
citizens from the ballOt-box, while
leading up to the polls the
non-taxpaying negroes. Mr.. Anderson
is a rigid, pains-taking business man,
and lawyers and litigants in the various
courts viii find him prompt in the dis
charge of his duties. He is a man of
clear judgment, much native force of
character, sterling integrity, pleasant
manners. and is certainly the best,
strongest, safest and most popular man
the convention could possibly nominate.
He would add strength to the ticket,
ought to be and would be elected. /
have but little acquaintance with Mr..
Anderson, but favor his claims because
I desire SUCCESS.
