THE ART OF OVERWHELMING.

vienna Letter A1uCAlCdus
The Germans in th9 u Lifted States, and
those Americans who affect a fondness fer
lager beer, don't drink it as it is drank ia
Germany. Phey rush into restaurant
and gulp down two or three glasses and
move ON. Here German never thinks OF
finishing bis glass Of beer in less than ten
minutes, or to drink it without eating
something at the same time, even if it is
only . cru3t of brown bread. In fact, q
German in the Fatherland is constitution
ally opposed to doing anything in hurry,
and especially TO drinking beer with "rapid
speed" The consequence is that we donot
see men here with great, huge paunches, as
at home, capable of swallowing a keg OF
beer after supper. They seldom treat one
another, but sit down to the tables, and al
though they drink together, each man pays
for what he consumes, whether it be beer
or food. This of itself is great preVen-
tive of excess, as, f half dozen or
dozen were to sit down to drink, as with
US, each must treat in turn, and thus six or
q dozen glasses he guzzled, whether they
want it or not. If our temperance friends
could institute what is called the "Dutch
tre&' into cur saloons, each man paying
his own reckoning, it would be long step
toward reform in drinking to excess. In
short, beer in Germany is part OF each
mans food. He takes it as a susten2nce,
and not as a stimulant-

How the Nashville Editors are
SIRndere1.

The Sparta Tribune of the 18th inst.
contains the following beautiful morsel:
"The Nashville papers have been forced
to admit that the regular Asistic cholera is
prevailing in that city; but, in order to lie
about the thing as long as possible, they
give the general average of deaths at from
ten to fifteen per day, and say the number
is decreasing. Gentlemen now in this city,
almost direct from Nashville, where they re-
side and do business, tell us another story
to the effect that the deaths number from
firty to seventy-i five and even one hundred
per day; that there is but little if any de-
crease In the virulence of the disease; that
all but two of the hotels have been
closed, public schools discontinued,
and many Of the business houses shut up
The people are, or were, leaving by thous
ands, and that standing room on some of
the trains could not be procured. W.
would believe any one, now, rather than
the Nashville editors, for, lying as they
did, we cons der it but little better than
ATTEMPTED murder, and such yarns as they
have been telling only show with what a
degree of Indifference they regard the
truth"
If the fellow who indited the above had
sense enouch to take the cholera, we would
send him slice, postage paid, believing
that in ridding White county of such a
brainless specimen of humanity, we would
be doing the Sta'e some service.

THE MAINE FRATRICIDE.
Developments of Coroner's Jury.


BELFAST, Me, June 22.--The coroner's
jury in the Gordon tragedy completed their
Inquest this afternoon. They find that the
father and mother came to their death in
consequence of blows inflicted upon their
heads with an axe, fracturing the skulls;
that the infant was either killed in like
manner or died from inhaling smoke, heat
and fire sfter the blows were given; that
the fire was kiLdled in many places, and uD-
on the bed aud crib in which the little boy
was sleeping, and that the toor leading to
the room was closed. The jurors further
say that the blows were inflicted by John
Tree Gordon with malice aforethought,
and that the fire was kiLdled and the door
shut by him for the purpose Of causing the
bodies Of bis victims TO be consumed and
destroyed.
A new motive for the murder, that Of re-
venge, was disclosed by the evidence. A
young lady to whom Gordon had been pay
ing attentions had recently received snony-
nous letters traducing his character, the
authorship Of which he (Gordon) imputed
10 his sister-in-law. A few days before the
murders were committed be threatened to
be even with her, and so expressed him.
self, or in words to that effect. 1t was also
proved that on the Saturday evening pre-
vious TO the murders he remarked to his
cousin, young man: 81 know one thing
AlmOn's fe or mine is damned short IN
thi, World" The prisoner heard the re-
suit of the inquest without emotion. His
examination is expected TO take place be-
fore police justice Wednesday.

AN EXCITING RACE.

The Jackson Wing and Tribune of the
21st inst. says: "Last Saturday morning
about sunrise, negro man who attends to
feeding the horses on Mr.. j. G. Reid's place
near Denmark, in this county,went and told
Mr. Reid that one of his horses was miss
ing from the stable. Mr.. Reid immediately
went TO look into the matter, and tracked
the horse into the public road, with his
head toward this city. Mr.. Reid immedi-
ately mounted horse and started in pur-
suit. He traced him in this din ection about
five miles, and not overtakiDg him he OBJ
tanned fresh horse and again started in
pursuit, and soon came in sight o. the thief
and horse, and here real race Of the Gil
pin order took place for four or FIVE miles,
until they came TO Nath Whitlow's place,
when the horse Mr.. Reid was riding, show
ing signs of distress, be was exchanged for
q fresh one, and the race renewed. He
next came in sight of the fleeing thief at
the western end of Campbel's ievee, and
the race was kept up with furious speed in
to town, where the thief and horse was cap
tured by Mr.. Reid on the square. The
thief proved to be negro man who is at
work on Mr.. Reld's place, and in consider
alton of the fair promises the negro made,
and the further fact that If he left the place
his crop would be lost, Mr.. Reid took him
back to the farm and put him to work. He
rode at rapid pace from Denmark to this
place, without saddle or bride, having only
a hamo string around the horses neck to
guide him WITH"

GRANTS bad example is having a very
injurious effect Oh the public service. The
Washington correspondent Of the St. Louis
Republican writes, June q: "While the
President and many of the members of the
Cabinet are absent from their duties, it
might be expected the heads of bureaus
and clerks are disposed to embrace the op-
portunity to do as little work as possible.
To such an extent has the example Of the
chief been copied by the subordinates that
the Secretary Of War has found it necessa-
ry to issue sn order notifying the clerks in
the various bureaus of the War Depart
ment that hereafter any clerk not promptly
at his desk at 8 A. N. will be considered as
having rendered bis resignation"

THE PROPOSED NEW STATE OF
JACKSON.

Several of our contemporaries OF the press
have suggested meeting in this city on the
10th of July, for the purpose Of taking the
necessary steps to form a new S ate out Of
all the territory of West Tennessee, West
Kentucky, and portion of North Missis-
sippi. We say, let The meeting be held, and
in behalf of the hos pitable citizens Of jack
son we hereby tender a cordial welcome to
all the friends of the enterprise who may
attend. Ample arrangements will be made
to accommodate al who may core. 1t is
not necessary to have meetings in all the
counties to appoint delegates, for the invita-
ton is broad enough to ts'e in all the
friends Of this great movement who may be
present on the occasion. But we especial
iy invite editors and representative men,
irrespective of political parties, TO be with
US on the 10th July. If We had united
press on this subject, all working to given
point, and take a strong pull, a long pull,
and pull altogether, the new State can be
formed. In the E1ean time we suggest to
the citizens of Jackson that they have an
early meeting aud appoint the necessary
committees to push forward the work.

THE great leading cry of the book trade
is the consumption Of dry-rOt which has
overtsken the business. There are VAL
ious explanations given: one class of deal
ers attribute it to "uDderselling;" another
to the 'pushiDg" Of an overweening guam
tity of poor books on the part of the pub.
fishers; third, to the overcrowding of the
trade, both wholesale and retail; fourth,
to the absorption by the daily and periodi-
cal press of all the time of readers and OF
most Of the Intellectual ability of authors.
There is little douOt that the last is the
leading influence in the comparative decline
of the book trade. There is talk of some
great centennial publication of a historical
nature. But that is not the way great his
tories are made.
