A HIGH-RANDED GAME.
The Radical Managers Plotting for
Federal Interference in
the Election.

Judge Trigg Refuses TO Appoint su-
Pervisars-PIain Talk From the
Chairman Of the County Democratic
Executive Committee.
Yesterday morning, the chairman Of the
Radical Executive Committee, for this
county, called upon Capt. Thos. l.. Dodd,
chairman Of the County Democratic Exec
utive Committee, and made most extra
ordinary request. Setting out with the as
sumption thai the judges and clerks of
election had not been fairly divided be-
tween the two parties, he asked nothing
less than that Captain Dodd should
mite with him in petitioning Judge
Trigg, OF the United States Disnic..
Court, for the appointment of two super
vising officers for each polling place, to
take charge Of the election. It may well
be imagined that Capt. DOdd received this
propos itiOn with mingled surprise and liz
dignati0n. His reply was substantially,
that there was no ground whatever for such
action, which would set a precedent
dangerous to the liberties of the people;
that the selection of judges and clerks had
b en- made by the sheriff in strict accord
anee with the laws Of the State, and with
suG cOAN AIa VI nav Acll NAClSAOus NAl1l
tine best Of judges and clerks had been
published extensively for several days
throughout the county, and that no COM
plant had been made until at literally the
lass moment before the election; finally,
that he regarded the suggestion as simply
outrageous, and one which selfrespect and
a due regard for the rights of the people of
davidson county, would not permit him to
entertain for moment.
The Radical committeeman then posted
off q Judge Trigg on his own hook, but
the Judge stated very emphatically that he
lad looked into the law, and that he had
no authority whatever to interfere with the
election in the manner suggested.
Thus ended this plot to place the polls to-
day under the control of Radical hirelings
and count the Radical candidates in, after
the most approved style Heretofore prac-
tieed by kellogg in Louisiana with such
distinguished success.

When it is remembered that nearly a
hundred persons make the county Jail
their home, one would think Jailer Hugh
Heverin would not have found that estab-
lishment a lonesome place, but It is quite
evident that he did, as he took unto him
self a wife Sunday night, to the great sur
prise of his friends and acquaintance.
The ceremony was performed at O'Clock,
by Bishop Feehan, at the Cathedral, the
bride being Miss Mary Cox, Of Edgefeld.

| cleared $4,000, with which Jubilee Hall
is now being built. This building COM
mands splendid view on the site of
Fort Gillem, and will be finished in time
for occupation next Fall. The Jubilee
Singers are now being reorganized for
another campaign in the North and
East. Their efforts will be directed to
the securing of endowments for the
University. In the institution special
efforts are made to meet the great de
mand for colored teachers for the co!Ored
schools of the State. During the year
1873 Fisk University sent out one hum
dred and ten teachers, who averaged
from five to six months teaching, and
instructed about ten thousand pupils.
The circular, which Mr.. Bennett distrib
utes, closes with the following appeal:
1.-The most urgent necessi ty of the COLI
ored people of Tennessee to-day is well
qualified teachers. Fisk University pro-
poses to spare NO efforts to meet this i'm
perative demand. During the coming
year every effort will be put forth to in
spire the students with q purpose to
teach school. The friends of education
everywhere can do no better service to
the eolored people at large than to en>
promising and aspiring colored
youth OF both sexes, to attend Fisk
University for the purpose of preparing
themselves to teach in the Public
Schools of the State"

The recent Democratic victories were
appropriately celebrated here last Sat
urday night. Men, women and children
from the city and country were upon
the street waving handkerchiefs and
shouting for Joy. At ca o'clock P. NJ, Il
grand tOrch-light and transparency pro-
cession was formed on the square. The
procession WAS formed and commanded
by Marshals d. f. Wade, w. J Whit
thorne, 10. Irvine, w. B. Gordon and
ROb't Marshall Mckay. The first thing
in the procession was donkey ridden
by two boys carrying three large torch
es. Next were fifty large Transparent

those that referred to Republicans who
had not been candidates.l Next was a
long line of tOrGh>lights. In the rear of
this there was an old hearse with cof-
fin carrying off the carcass of Radical
ism. Then followed the Ugly Club,
dressed in fancy costume, armed with
guns, and firing every hundred yards.
There were some thirty OF these. Their
column was headed by large triangu>
lar transparency; on one side the initials

donkey, with the name OF Hannah
Gibbs under il; on the other, "GeEt One1eeS,
AIT nihU." Then came a band of flies
and a crowd of citizens; then Caps

was wagon loaded with men beating
on anvilS and ringing bells.
The procession left the square, went
out West Main Street to the street Op
pOsite the Institute, thence north to the
foot of Mount Parnassus, thence down
free street to the HERALD Office, thence
to the square, thence down South Main
to Mechanic Street, then up Mechanic

assembled and listened to speeches by
Col. ID. +. Wade, Judge Jno. V. Wright,
Gen. Whitthorne, Col. Looney end Col.

On the public square aud all along the

would have remained an obscure and

Helena would not. be known 10 every

healed u cripple at the pool OF Bethesda,
that obscure place would never nave come
down through eighteen centuries, to be

with DR.. Summers, who says that the Grip
pie here healed had no faith until it was
developed by Christine had some falth,
for he had come many miles TO the pool OF
