A TRAGIC CHAPTER.
The Anfi-Siavery Champions and the
Southern re tderH.

John Brown WIS hanged on the soil
Of the Sta1e where he struck the first
blow for freedom. Mr.. Lincoln, The
first anti-slavery President, died by an
a ssassin's bullet, which vet was scarce
ly more pitiless than the biography
that afterwards tore his good name to
tatters. Preston King, it Is said, COM
mitted suicide. Gerritt Smith is said
to have lost his reason. jim Lane
died by his own hand, the victim of a
remorse which even his fierce iron
nature could not endure. Horace
Greeley died in defeat and delirium,
amidst the excavations of the party
which he had bullded. Mr.. Beeeher
still lives, but only to look upon the
ghasty fragments of a reputation
which was the greatest Of ali-torn to
pieces by his own friend, whom, in
turn, he has ground into dust under
his heavy heel. Mr.. Sumner died
under the condemnation Of his party,
having lived the last two years Of his
life under the condemnation Of his
own State. Fremont lives under the
ban of outlawry Of & FRENCH court,
before when he refuses to appear to
answer charges Of fraud. 50 much
for the tragic fate of the anti-slavcry
leaders.
Turning to the South, 10 look after
their great antagonists on the other
side, We fad that Mason, Slidell,
Soule, Brooks, Wigfail and keitt have
died peacefully On their beds; Stephens
has lived TO return to Congress, and
Toombs, Hunter, Wise and Davis i've
to see the wreck and ruin Of SO many
Of their cid antagonists. Slavery
came out Of the contest defeated, and
anti-savery came out Of it triumph
ant; vet the smitten South contains
few or no graves Of self-slain or dis
honored leaders, while the victorious
North is marked with many a dark
spot where an anti-slavery champion
has fallen.

The elections throughout the State
passed off quietly last Thursday, and
the regular Democratic nominees and
.anti-civil-righters we're elected in near
II every county. Memphis and Nash
vile did noble work in redeeming
themselves, winning brilliant victories
over the black-and-tans. We hope
they viii not be satisfied with this,
and lay supinely back, thinking the
country is saved. The good work is
only just begun. Let US now organ
in every district and county and win
such a victory in November as will
forever crush every supporter of the
infamous civil rights bill.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 10. 1874.

We clip the following concerning
the T., J. d \. o. Railroad from
the Wing aad Tribune of last week:
At the urgent request Of the friends
of the Evansville, Jackson and New
Orleans Railroad in Spring Greek,
Lavinia, McLemoresville, Mckenzie,
Como and Trczevant, we name August
the 18th and Jackson the place for
holding a convention TO take such pre-
hminarv steps as may be deemed
necessary to perfect the organization
of said Company in Tennessee. The
people along the route mentioned
should promptly appoint delegates TO
attend this important meeting. This
meeting will materially affect the To-
cation of the road, and it behooves
those interested to be present on the
occasion. The convention will certain
Iy take steps to have Tennessee prop
erly represented in the Board Of Di-
resors. The Importance Of the meet
ing Is TOO obyiJus to need argument.
The Importance of securing this
road by way Of Milan will readily
suggest itself to our thinking citizens.
The people of Milan and vicinity ard
al along the route between this place
and Evansville are deeply interested
in thi. road. Their future prosperity
ma:eri IL depends upon its location;
10 rgn hr Milan is decidedly the near
c,,, cbc2re-', most convenient and by
1l~ tbc rest connecting line. No OPP
poctmisF Of securing this preferred
i:~- shaaA Re lost. We must not be

Leans l. c:.tct = location that would

Tho Odorless MONOPOLY.

MORE INDUSTRIOUS coLoLKD MRN ARRESTED
THE COMPLAINTS AGAINST THE MAYOR.
Yesterday, Emanuel Black, James Temple and
David Brown, three industrious colored night
scavengers, who required to risk the penalties
OF the law in order 10 follow their avocation and
make q livelihood, were arrested by officers Nick
erson and Bernhard, on the charge OF violating
city ordinance, by cleaning cesspools without
license. The Board of Health las the granting
OF licenses but will not grant them TO any parties
outside the Odorless Excayating Company These
men were brought before the Mayor, tried, aud
each fined five dollars and costs, the penalty pre-
seribed by law. The have all appealed, and III
our County Courts, next week, the power OF the
Board OF Health to create an unjust monopoly
will be tested. Tho appellants have secured the
services OF Levi Z. Bird, Esq, Of this city, to
duct their case.
During the past week or two, the friends OF the
"Odorless Monopoly" who, We are happy to say,
are few in number, ehave been maliciously de-
nouncng Mayor Simms, for not having the scav-
engers arrested when they violate the law. These
parties SEEM judging by their talk, TO think that
it Is the duty Of the Mayor aud his police toarrest
the drivers OF every nigh cart they see upon the
streets. Such is not the case. violation of the
law OF this character must be first reported 10 the
Mayor, by h person witnessing 1t, and q warrant
for the arrest OF the offenders will be issued and
| served. II these GROWERS will make complaint
la The right manner, We have not The slightest
doubt that the Mayor will perform his whole duty
