A seIrActInr sewIng Machine.

A Mr.. Peck had long entertained the
idea that he could invent self.acting
sewing machine, and ne did. He pro
cured a steel ribbon spring about twenty
feet long, and Of sufficient power to run
horse car. This he rugged on his
wife's sewing machine with lot OF
clock-work, and it appeared 10 him,
when he finished the job that evening,
that he realized his hopes. If any
sewing machine ever would 90, that
would; so he wound it up ready for use
in the morning and went to bed. AT
four o'clock Mrs. Peck aroused him,
and told him to listen to the burglars in
the house. He listened, and heard a
most terrific racket in the sitting-room.
1t appeared to him that there must be
million burglars refreshing them
selves with prize fight. So he loaded
his gun, crept softly over, and peeped
through crack in the door. 1t was not
burglars, it was Mrs. Peck's sewing ma
chine. The peg had slipped and that
spring was having full play 1t would
rear the machine up on one end and
charge it three or four times like bat
tering ram against the glass front of the
book case; then it would wheel around
and suddenly tear across the room and
butt up against the mantel-piece, and it
would lie down and roll over the floor,
and hammer the sofa, tear up the carpet
and boost the comfortable, and try TO
ram hole through the wall, and then
endeavor to leap up on the chandelier.
Then, as Peck entered the room, it
few at him and tore IN and out be-
tween his legs, the wheel revolving
like lightning all the time, and the
spring gradually unwinding. And then
Peck retreated, aud the family all got
up and took a mattress of the bed, with
which they covered the machine, and
sat on it for a while, but finally pushed
It out OF the window into the yard,
where Peck piled boxes and ash-bar-
rels, aud slop-buekets, and fence-pail-
ings, and wagon wheels on it TO keep it
still. But all night under the heap it
kept up a continual buzz and snort and
hum, 50 that one Of Mr.. Birdsalls board
ers fired at il sixteen times, with the inn
preston that it was cats Peck has pre-
scented his better half with a new sewing
machine. and he is satisfied for her to
run II with her feet. He is taking a
short vacation in the studying Of me
chanics at present. Brewster Standard. |

statistics and Incidents of SIS
TsAveI - Sudden Appearance in
50. Louis.
A special to the Courier-Journal from
Nashville dated the 3Oth says:
The cholera is now almost wholly con-
fined to the penitentiary, outside the
city limits, seventy-6ve conviets being
down with it. Only nine deaths have
resulted from the disease in that institu-
ton during June. 1t is believed By many
that the convicts who contracted what
was then supposed to be the malarial
fever on the Memphis and Paducah
road, and were brought here a month
ago TO recruit their health, brought the
cholera to Nashville, the fever or the
cholera being one and the same. A
Nashville undertaken, who has been in
the business since 1888, predicts that the
cholera will have passed away from
Nashville by July 4. it never having tar
ried here longer than that time when it
made its first appearance in May or
June. Present appearances rather CO.
incide with his prediction. The only
fear with the physicians now is, that
people who have been nnder restraint
OF diet for a month past will german
die, aud thus lay themselves liable TO
further attacks Of disease 1t is char
acteristic fact that, though physicians
have been worked down during the cpl
demic, they have realized the merest
trihe Tor their valued services. A boy
died % South Nashville from having
eaten blackberries Sunday. Il is re-
ported here that Samuel D0nelson,
Criminal Court Clerk Of the county, has
been seriously attacked with the cholera

ANOTHER DUEL.

Ex.Judge Cooley, OF New Orleans,
leading counsel in the case Of Hawkins
VS.. the Picayune, was killed in duel
near the Crescent City by Colonel Rhett'
editor of the Picayune, yesterday morn
ing. The duel was a result Of remarks
made by Judge Cooley in prosecuting a
libel suit against the Picayune Publish
ing Company. A severe article followed
in the Picayune, and rejoinder from
the counsel appeared in the Times. This
was succeeded by a challenge from Col.
Rhett. which was accepted. They fought
at forty PAGES with double-barreled shot
guns. loaded with ball The first fire
was Intellectual, but at the second Judge
Cooley fell pierced through the heart,
and only lived six minutes. The merits Of
the quarrel cannot at this distance be
clearly understood, but there is little
doubt that the libel suit was brought to
annoy, and il possible suppress the
Picayune. The Kellogg authorities sue
ceeded in putting the old Times news
paper out of the way when it became
troublesome, and this is no doubt an at
tempt to get rid of another bold, out
spoken PAPER. The press is naturally
an enemy of tyranny and outrage, and
none have cause to fear its damaging ex-
posures so much as those who hold a
questionable tenure to office and power.
This libel suit was an exercise of power
held by the kellogg governorship. 1t
was decided against the Picayune by a
Jury whose members came out OF the
box and frankly said they had been
bribed with money to give such verdict.
Damages we're allowed to the amount OF
$25 600 by this perjured aud bought up
jury. The judges as well as juries feel
that they belong to the Kellogg admins
tration of injustice and are as craven as
chained spaniels. While dueling is rep
rehensible in the abstract, there is little
doubt that Judge Cooley richly deserved
his fate. He was a native Of Louisiana,
was educated in Kentucky, and had worn
the judicial ermne. Yet he leagued
himself with the oppressors Of his fellow
countrymen and joined for pay in an
effort to break down by petty persecu-
ton one of the great opponents OF HUI
man rights, defender of the weak
against the expressions of the strong
and violent. The immediate cause of
the duel was the use of the following
language at the close of a card written
by Judge VIM. II. Cooley:
Colonel Rhett having written in the
Picayune that i made assertions TO the
Jury which we're malicious and willlnlly
false, and having subsequently refused
my fair, honest and honorable offer to
decide which of us is correct | publish
him to the people of New Orleans as an
unmitigated calumniator, deliberate
and willful falsi6er, an ertful dodger,
and withal, a Thoroughbred braggart.

The lovely young Frank Walworth,
who at first discovered to Mr.. 0'Cenor,
his eminent counsel, so many of the
sterling qualities of his distinguished
grandfather, General Hardin, has had to
fall back on the insanity dodge. This
must be very humiliating to the high
headed youth who seemed to understand
his business so well about the time he
was perforating his father with lead.
When he is acquitted he ought to kill
one or two of his lawyers for calling him
crazy, just to keep up bis reputation.
