Sd DISTRICT DEMoCRATIC.-At
the late election the counties COM
prising this, the third Congressional
District, gave together majority of
26l for the Democratic state ticket.
The Democrats, of course, are felici-
tating themselves over the fact, and
the prospect they have Of electing
their man to Congress next fall. We
await with patience the assembling
Of their convention, when such can
didates as John Strachan, and Allen
Warden, will be snubbed and told
that they were good enough to spend
their money and do tho party's dirty
work when there was no chance Of
success but they cannot come in
now that there is a probability of
electing the candidate.

We learn from the Grant County
HeraH that a Polander, at Beetowp,
traded horses with one X. Ward,
giving two calves as the difference
The Polander, finding himself badly
swindled, his wife went to Wards
premises to recover the property,
when Ward attacked her and beat
her numerically. AS she was in a
delicate condition at the time, it is
feared that she will not recover.
TIRE last few days there are strong
indications OF a marked advance in
the price of wheat. We feel conf
dent that during the winter the
price in this city will reach one do
lar or more. Farmers are not ad-
vised to hold, however, in accord
ance with our views, and they need
not blame US if they wait till spring
and then sell for - cents.

WARNING TO YOUNG MEN.

The American girl of books is an ideal
existence. The real girl, W mo has just re-
turned from the country, and is occupying
her elf with preparations for the approach
ing winter. is not at all difficult to describe
She is a girl of immense energy and but
little physical strength. She has, if she
can be Judged from what she accompliShes,
a noble digestion; or perhaps, to be more
accurate, she has nobly triumphed over her
digestion, and reduced il to complete sub
mission. She is not highly educated, nor
does she speak all foreign languages with
smoothness and correct idiOm; indeed, she
has been known to play strange tricks with
her own tongue. She is lively, but not wit
ty; she is fond of laughing, without caring
very much at what she laughs: she is noisy
and loud when she dares to be. As gen
eral rule she knows little or nothing of those
matters which used to be considered essen
tial parts of a woman's education, and in
tends. if she is rich, to have housekeeping,
when once she is married, done for her by
some one else; and if she is poor she does
not think about it any more than she can
help. Her notions about marriage itself
are a curious mixture of ideas derivedfrOm
novels, poems, and such acquaintance with
the world as girls get from the conversation
of young men who dance the German with
them through the winter, and walk on the
cliffs at Newport with them in the summer.
Her life, if she is rich, is in general one of
thoughtless pleasure: if she is poor, her
horizon is filled with the mirage of what she
might be if she were only rich. She has in
her mind an ideal husband. whom usually
she does not marry. But the ideal Amer
ican girl-we will not prOtane the memory
Of the happy age when all the world be
lieved in her existence, by synical compar-
isons.-The GALAXY for December.

Jos. Silleck, a widow owning and occupy
ing alone a small place in this town, was
brutally murdered this morning with an AK,
her clothing saturated with kerosene and
the body nearly consumed, and the house

found in the room with large pool of
blood on the carpet and floor. \ hole had
been burned through the floor, through

ALLEGED BILL .RAIsERs.

John Green and George Lawson, both
of Hancock county, were tried in the
criminal court on Thursday last, on the
charge of passing counterfeit money.
During the Fair week the twain were
in Knoxville, and, it is alleged, they
passed a raised" $40 bill on John
Kibler, restaurant keeper. When ar
rested other raised bills are alleged
to have been found in their possession,
notably one 50 bill raised to 500, and
two 81 bill S raised to $50 each. The
indictment ON which they were tried in
the criminal court was faulty, and the
jury acquitted. Yesterday the Attor-
General had them before Esquire
Joroulman in an effort to have them
rebound over to answer again at the
next term of the criminal court, but
the Justice denied the application, as
their case having been once decided
was beyond the jurisdiction of the
State. The United States Government
officials then took the matter in hand,
and the men were brought before
United States Commissioner Aiken.
Green was discharged, and Lawson
waived an examination. - KnorUiIle

seventeen prisoners have been shot at Hol-

conspiracy to cooperate with the Cubans
on the Virginius. There is no official con-

strangers may say, as we are the owners OF
our homes and well able to manage our
own affairs, and defend our rights"
