Starkey vs.. William Smith, was taken up
in this court as soon as it opened yesterday
morning, and occupied the entire day.
First Gov. Foote, counsel for the defense,
made speech three hours in length in

testimony Eon both sides, and argued
to the Jury that Smith should be freed.
When be had done Mr.. McClanahan, of the
counsel for the State, made most able
speech of nearly three hours length, wherein
he proved by the decision of the Supreme
Court of this State, that Officer Starkey
had a right to arrest Smith or any one else
without a warrant, his uniform being suf-
fcient evidence that he was in the official
discharge of his duty. After he had finish
ed his address to the Jury, Gov. Foote re-
piled at some length, and when he had fin
ished, the other legal guns began their firing
which was kept up until after O'CLOCK.
The case was then given TO the jury, and at
about 5 o'clock they stood IL for conviction
and l for scquittal, but that one has not
yet succumbed to the subtle arguments OF
his brother jurors.'

pointed and qualified as administrator OF

Convention Called at GalEatin, Oct
10, TO Nominate Candidates for Con-
gresham and Election.
At a meeting Of the Democratic Execu-
tive Committee of the Fifth Congressional

lowing address was adopted:
To the Peopleof the-5th Congressional District;
NASHVILLE, TENN, Sept. 5, 1S72.-'The
Executive Committee for your Congress
sional district, after mature deliberation,

A Card.

The report having been revived during
the present Municipal canvass that l re-
ceived certain sum of money from Mayor
Morris, on condition that should become
a candidate for Mayor at the last Municipal
election, in regard to which deem it but
an act of simple justice that my former re-
futation of the charge, which now repeat,
be republished, which is as follows:
at being extensively circulated that l
received $1,000, more or less, from Mr.
Morris or friends for the consideration OF
my becoming candidate for the Mayoralty
at the last Municipal election, l Therefore
deem it a duty to myself, my immediate
friends and those who honored me with
their sufrages, Ito whom hereby NEST
sincerely return my grateful thanks for the
same,) to denOunce as utterly false and
malicious all such reports, both in whole
aud In part. To those who know me it IS
unnecessary for me to say, but to those
who do not would say, that neither Mr..
Morris nor friends have sufficient money or
ANYTHING else whatever to induce me to
sell my honor, or prostitute my principles
of integrity" j. W. READY.

heath I'm EdgeGeId.

We chronicle elsewhere the death Of
Mrs. Caroline A. Macy, wife CT our well
known citizen, Silas n. Macey. She died
in Edgefeld yesterday at quarter past L
O'Clock after a lingering disease which she
bore with Christian fortitude. The deceas-
ed had been for long series of years a
resident of Edgefeld, having removed there
when the now 1lourishing city was in its
infancy, and lived to see what was mere
village grow to population numbered by
the thousands. When she first took charge
of the home which was the pride of her
heart, the premises were wild in appear
ance, with none of the cultivation that
now adorns that old homestead. Shrubs
planted by her own hands in early youth
have grown to be hardy eYergreens, and
the plants which were young and tender
then, now betoken the years through
which they have been visited alternately by
storm and sunshine. There will be leaf
less trees at the close of these autumn days,
and nippinC winds and bhghtirg fOsts
throughout the dreary winter to come, but
spring will return again; and when The now
drOoping vine shall come out in freshness
and verdue, there will be recollections of
her who is gone, and whose virtues while
living, shone respondent throughout the
home circle.

The CfAy EoUneii

The next and last meeting Of the pres
ent City Council, will be held tomorrow
night, at which time the Aldermen and
Councilmen meet in extra session to close
their term Of service, and receive the re-
turns of the municipal election of that day.
a gentleman who deyotes considerable at
tention to popular elections and their prob
able results, gives it as his opinion, that the
new City Council viii embrace half, if not
more of the present members. Another
gentleman who invariable guessas on the
safe side of probabilities, expresses the
opinion, based upon the signs of the times,
that either Morris or Wilkinson will be
elected Mayor; provided Mr.. Kercheval
does not receive more votes than either of
his opponents. As evidence of his faith,
he would be willing to bet money on the
correctness of his judgment; if the law OF
the State did not forbid such sportive ven
ture on occurrences Of uncertain eventual
ton.

An YnlnOSter,

To the Editor of the Union and American:
HOPKINsvILLE, KY, Sept. "a, lS72.-
Sir: Last week man calling himself John
Henderson, and representing himself as
travelling correspondent of your paper, came
to this city, aud ran up a small account at
each of two or three boarding houses, get
ting into my affections to the amount of
$3.50. called on the gentleman $50 settle
up" and he told me be had no money, and
gave me an order on DR.. Fsrleigh, of this
city, which, when presented to DR.. Far
leigh he refused to pay, as he knew nothing
of the fellow, and had never heard of such
q man. Henderson claimed to be high
Mason, and 1 account for his giving the or
der on DR.. Farleigh by his having learned
that the Decor was Master of the lodge in
this city.
Besides getting food under false pretenses,
/ suppose ne also got whisky without pay,
as he was Uery drunk on Sunday, and
seemed to have nothing but the rusty and
shabby clothes he wore AMI lot of printed
circulars addressed to the people of Ten
nessee by Gen. B. T. Cheatham.
If he is your correspondent you ought to
provide him with money to pay his eX-
penses and swear him into a temperance
society; if not your correspondent, you
should expose him through your paper, or
let me know, and will give him benefit
in one of our city papers.
Please answer and Oblige me. Respect
fully, L. NJ. EDHUNDsON,
Ofthe Etna Saloon and Restaurant, Bridge
