OF TdyeLIeNlllD observer.
Editor Observer-AI states
men don't get into the laborato-
Fry where political thunder is
manufactured on the principles
of worthy and well qualified.
10. Offal went in during, the
times of Brass, When rag tag
and bob-tail got Office on the
profits of ignorance and we'll
defnedrascality-whenthe man
acles of the Penitentiary, reve-
niue Of theft, and associations
with mean people were precur-
sorry to full suit Of Congress
clothes, or to an outfit for Judge
or Superintendent over the peo-
pie of some orderly State or dis
trict. lfk
Nevertheless, Mr.. Ofal was a
great man. He was naturally a
great man, just as some horses
are natural PAGERS, and some
dogs are natural settlers. What
he said and done, in the pursuit
OF occupancy of Office, was from
the irresistible promptings of
his great heart. Truth was too
small thing for him, and fact
was too dry for the feryor Of his
genius. He never had to labor
lie, he lied with as little effort
as soapsuds run into a sinkhole,
he lied from the delight of ns-
ture and the charm Of fiction,
he lied because he loved it he lied
because his lying nature was
the only thing he ever honestly
possessed: As to his actions,
he was broad and catholic, he
would as soon steal from his
constituents as from his oppos-
ers. He had no scruples about
the dimensions of crime. He
would as quickly steal q nickel
as q thousand dollars, and
pewter plate as State treasury.
He practiced lying belle letters
with dispatch. He could have
stolen the government, while
the party cooks of Tammany
were preparing the general pie
for the body polite.
His manner, in the darkest
deeds Of his Life; was as sancti-
monic:s as a pet sheep. CON-
ing up to a lie or theft, he
showed none of the effects Of
laughing gas, nor the rising
spirit of the barometer; his
meekness, on the contrary, would
have befitted a saint at commun-
ion.
The rock, on which many
promising young liars and
rogues split, is vanity; 10 new
er exulted over a prospect, how
ever bright. People, who 60
singing around what their pros
poets are, generally get tangled
in the tune like the dog that
went bowling after the singing
master.
But as delicately as he worked
his fine arts, Mr.. Offal would oc-
casionally be detected. When
this was the case, he never at
tempted to vindicate his own
character; but would HE for
parts unknown
When we met this gentleman
of State, which was between
Freedomvilie and Green county,
he was wearing q camp-meeting
solemnity. He had" declared
equality aud love to a black
woman Of the former place, and
had been discarded. The only
encouragement shegayehimwas,
'Do way white man, you's tell
in a lie, you dest want to steal
my freedom, wonder you fink
dis gal would hab a yaller chile
follerin arter her"

Barring Attempt TO Assassinafc n
Young Man.

1t is seldom that we have to record so
hend;sh 4 crime us was committed In our city
last night. i'll the cowardly and cold-bIooded
attempt Of some william to aSSassinate one of
our citizens. As Mr. Dudley Bray was APP
preaching the residence of his father, Mr.
,yames L. Bray, ON Eighth street between
Clay and Leigh streets, about half-past
I O'Clock, it being unusually dark on
account of the prevailing storm. an
assassin who was secreted behind a
tree suddenly stepped out on the side
walk, placed n pistol against the breast
of Mr.. Bray and tired it, the ball passing
through the right breast out below
the arm-rit, intlicting dangerous,
though not necessarily mortal, wound.
Without whiting to see the result OF
his shot, the would-be murderer ran
from the spot, and 10 one being near to fol-
low in pursuit or to give an alarm, he
escaped. The attack was so sudden and SO
stunning in its effects that Mr.. Bray was not
able to give an accurate description of his as
sailant. 1t is hoped, however, that our po-
lice will he able to discover tie perpetIator
of this foul deed. The authorities should
offer large reward for his arrest.
Drs. O. Z. Manson and Isaiah H. White,
the attending physicians, rendered all neces-
sary medical mid TO the sufferer, whose con-
dition at Il late hour last night was rs COM
Portable as could be expected under the cir
culnstanceS.
