midnight, when about 25 miles OF
Racine, the sea running heavily, we
shipped a. heavy sea amidships
which put out the fires and stopped
the engines. 1t was blowing hard from the
North, and when the vessel lost headway
the wind swung her round and the heavy
sea strained open the seams through which
the water rushed with such force that in
spite of all the efforts of the crew it gained
rapidly upon us, and about $50 A. NJ it
became evident the steamer would go
down. There were five boats in all, two
life boats, yawl and two small boats.
We got all the people into these
Doats with the exception Of five or
six men who refused to leave the
vessel and who think were drowned when
she went down. had in my boat seven
persons, including two ladies. We landed
six miles south of Racine at six O'Clock this
evening, having been over twelve hours on
the water. During the forenoon a propel-
ler with two smoke pipes passed quite near
us, but made no response to our signals, al
though am confident she saw us.

THE Radical paper at Kno1viIle says

THE Radical paper at Knoxville says
"Col. D. NJ. Key has at last, It is said le-
signed his position as Chancellor, but too
late TO allow an election for bis successor at
the regular election next month"
An election to ill the vacancy could not
have been held " a. the regular election
next month";" if Col. Key had resigned two
months ago. This Constitution provides
that "no special election shall be held to
I'LL vacancy in the Office Of Judge or Dis
trict Attorney, but at the time herein fixed
for the biennial election of civil officers. I"
This settles the question that no election
for successor can be held until August,
1874, as that is the first election for civil
officers that will occur.

JUST so.

We stated short time since that the
evidences Of Cheatham's daily increasing
strength were so palpable that we would
soon see the Radical papers joining the
Banner in decrying Gen. Cheatham and
exalting Mr.. johnson. So here we have it
In an extract from the Chattanooga Her
aid, Radical, of Saturday, published in the
Banner of Sunday:
From gentleman, who has just return
ed from trip through the counties Of
James, Meigs, Rhea, Bledsoe, and Sc
quatchie, we learn that johnson will carry
three-f finrths of the Democratic votes Of
the section Of country visited. Cheatham,
be says, will not get ten votes in Bledsoe
county. This, we suppose, must Of course
be an underestimate by good deal, yet it
will serve as straw to show how things
blow. Maynard viii sweep the entire Re
publican vote in every county.
Now it so happens that we received a
letter last Saturday, the day Of the HeralFs
publication, written from Pikeville, by the
Oldest Democrat in the Sequachie Valley.
Mr.. johnson knows him, and knows whom
we mean. OF Bledsoe county, where the
Banners Chattanooga Herald, Radical In
formant, says ''Cheatham viii not get ten
votes" our correspondent says:
"Large packages Of the Banner are sem
here every week to distribute gratis. They
do not help johnson with bis old Demo
cratic friends. The Democratic vote O
the county is divided, but CheathAm i

RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
Important Decision by the Supreme
Court Of Tennessee.

Important Decision by the Supreme
Court Of Tennessee.
From the Knoxville Press and Herald, Oct. 8.
Fl. j. Mitchell, who was passenger on
the eastern bound train on the East Ten
nessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad, on
the 31st December, 1870, from Greeneville
to johnson City, met with his death at the
latter place, by falling between the freight
platform and the cars, while In motion.
Mr.. Mitchell was notified that he had reach
ed his destination, as soon as the train stop
ped, but for some unsccountable cause, did
not attempt to leave the train until 1t had
started. The train, however, did not start
| till three minutes behind time, which gave
all passengers, whether crippled or not,
| ample time to leave the seats before 1t lett
| the station. It seems that Mr.. Mitchell
delayed getting off until after the train was IN
motion, and then attempted to jump on to
o high platform, not intended for pas
sengers. The result was that he was
caught between the platform and the NOV
| ing train, and almost instantly crush.
| ed to death. His widow brought suit for
damage to the amount of $50,0L0, and OBJ
tanned verdict for $4,000, in the Circuit
Court at Jonesboro, Washington county.
| This case was appealed to the Supreme
| Court, where it was reversed, on yesterday,
| and remanded for new trial.
The other case is one pertaining to the
death of Reuben Staten, who was run ever
| by a train of cars, two nies east OF Dalton,
on the night of the 3lst of May, 1870. He,
in company with several others, left Dalton
a little after dark on the day mentioned,
taking the railroad for their home route. 1t
appears that his comrades either left or de-
serted him, and the first known Of him was
when his mangled remains were found
some two or three hundred yards in the
rear of the train, which had passed over
his body. The engineer, after passing over
what he thought to be an obstruction, stop
ped his train and backed to the point at which
the body was found, which still showed
some signs of life. The body was placed
upon the train and taken back TO Dalton,
where medical assistance was brought into
requisition. The medical fraternity de-
cided that death would shortly ensue, and
soon after, he expired. The father Of the
unfortunate man brought suit against the
railroad company for 900, which was
decided on Friday last in favor Of the rail-
road company.

REsUmP mPTION OF SPECIE PAY.
mENTR


The man who was Gen. Grants first
choice for Secretary Of Treasury, Mr.. A. T.
Stewart, of New York, has the following
remarks on the financial management Of
the Administration
$50 far as bis policy consists in purchas-
ing, at a large premium, government bonds
not yet due, think the sooner that is ter
minated the better for the country; and the
sooner it is understood that the govern
ment intends entering upon policy which
at some future time, no matter how remote,
will lead to resumption of specie pay
ments, the better it will be for everybody.
Continuing the course that has been pur-
sued the last four years will never lead us
TO specie payments, but leaves every mer-
chant at the mercy of gold gamblers"
Precisely so. Gamblers in gold use Grant
and Boutwell, as mechanics use common
tools to do the work they have in hand.
The people pay enormous taxes that an or
ganizsd body Of gamblers may have one
hundred million dollars in gold, or its
equivalent, locked up in the vaults of the
Treasury to play the bull and the bear on
the money markets of the country fer their
private be eft ana to the detriment of the
public. Mr.. Stewart, the great New York
merchant, states an obvious fact when be
says that this tremendous one man money
power at the head of the nations Treasu-
~ ''places every merchant at the mercy Of
gold gamblers" Nothing less corrupt than
a Congress Of the Cameron and Yerkes
stripe would give any one man the power
that Boutw has, and surround him witt
the manifold temptations to abuse his pow.
er to the plblic injury. The policy Of the
Administration is to lead all men into grea
temptatiops in the hope of getting rich from
the proceeds Of government taxation. Thi
competition must cease.
