$3.50, 600 in the fifth and last grand gift con-
cert of the Public Library of Kentucky, is now
the agitating conundrum. Some one will do so

Of the lucky man will be known to all the
world on the first day of December next, for
the drawing will certainly take place on the
3Oth of November Two and a half million
dollars will then be distributed in prizes among
twenty thousand ticket-hoders. This mag
nifcent scheme is under the management of
Gov. Thos. Z. Bramlette, of Louisville; and
the same high-toned dealing will characterize
this final drawing as was shown in the preced-
ing ones. The Public Library founded by
these gift concerts is an honor to the State of

formed. Orders for tickets, accompanied with

lCOMTUSiCA Ed. I

CAPT. WELLS :-Charles county has gotten
her Oyster Boat, and few people in the coun-
ty will thank the Hon. Barnes Compton, he be-
ing one of the appointing Board. Politically.
Mr.. Compton's name has been very familiar
throughout the extent of this county He has
been one Of the favored and accepted leaders of
the Democratic masses, and although for two
years past he has been Il resident of Baltimore
city, we have looked upon him as being one Of
our respected citizens. and trusted him to watch
over the interests of his native county and its
people, who have upon so many occasions Civ
en- him their entire confidence. The fifth dis
trict of Charles county is the only one where
oysters are caught. The line of this district
exactly bounds the oyster limits of the county,
there being no oysters higher up the river than
Popes Creek Now, | think it will appear
very strange that in this, the only oyster dis
trict in the whole county. that not one single
name will be found enrolled upon this Oyster
Police Sloop books. We were justly and hon
estly entitled to the Police Boat, but not sim
gle word has, or would have been said had
they not entirely overlooked our right TO be
represented and 10 represent the oystermen of
this our oyster district We wish it clearly
understood that we say this all in good faith.
but earnestly and sincerely, and good
Democrat. The wounds of a friend faith
full. We would like to say to those who have
had to do with the appointing of this boat and
crew, that in our opinion they have not been
careful of the interest and harmony of all con-
cerned. We have gained victory in thus Sc
curing a boat for this county but, like Pvrrhus
when he overthrow the Romans, AMI was con-
graduated on his victory, we say: 'If we
gain such another victory are undone.''

We were blessed this morning with a
delightful shower of rain, which COM

about nine o'clock, when it cleared up
pleasantly with gentle air from the north

to the wheat just now.

The Contest Over.
All hail the day of triumph +!

All hail the day of triumph!
Let resounding echoes rise,
From this terrestrial globe of ours
Up to the ethereal skies.
The contest now is over,
The victory we have won.
So let US live as days of yore:
Forever and anon.
Our homes of peace and pleasure
Have long been trodden down.
By strangers and fraternal foes,
To gain the pocket crown.
say fraternal. All how sad.
Fain would speak their name,
But bark low voice echoes back,
They IL never rise again.
But welcome back, ye rowing sheep,
Your absence gives US pain.
Shake off the impure civil rights
And seek your fold again.
Old A. B. Hagner-friends don't laugh,
For | must speak my mind
He's like the fy-lash of a calf,
Forever found behind.
] reckon when he's dead ard gone,
And we are safe and free,
lie III pop out from MS tomD ana say,
No office there for me.
Now, Democrats, don't be too bold,
We have conflicts yet to bare,
For many an envious heart and face
Will frown on US fear.
But let us with undaunted step
March gently on our way,
And heed to nothing what they do,
And nothing what they say.
Of all the poets ever known,
From Milton up to Shaw,
Not one could tell the sweet odor
The Republican party bore.
Now friends, one word before close,
I'll give my thanks to you,
For that kind bow you gave to me,
So consistent, kind and true.
Now rise and shout loud huzza,
Strain out your loudest chord,
We've gained the day: we need no more
Till the country will afford.

Finchback's Case in the Seuatr.

p1nchback'0 Case in the Senafes
Tic Washington correspondent Of the
Cincinnati: Cosme'eiaI Of tbs nineteenth
sayss
The Senate eeucus committee on Southern
affairs met today to take final vote upon
the admission of Pinchback. but owing to
the exception OF King Kalakua. ad.
iourned until tomorrow. The impres-
sion prevails that the caucus committee
will recommend that he be seated. 1t is
generally understood that the caucus has
agreed to be bound by the decision of the
subcommittee on The subject Of transpOrta.
ton, finance and the South. An atfirma.
tive vote for piDchback in the caucus com.
mittee would consequently be equivalent to
vote to seat him.
His case is now before the Committee on
Privileges and Elections. to which his ere.
dentials we're referred. Several of the Re.
publican members of this committee have
opposed his admission. These Senators
will be compelled to surrender their con-
victiOns 20 caucus dictatiOu, IT majority
report is to be secured to seat Pinchback.
The principal argument used in favor OF
the admission of Plnchback is that political
consistency requires it. The House and
the President have recognized the Kellogg
government. The admission Of Pinchback
would defeat che intended McEpery move
ment of January.
The Democrats OF che Senate have agreed
to oppose the admission OF Pinchback at
everv step. and have even threatened to
talk against time untiI adjOuSnpent 70 &C.
ccmplisb their purpose.

4 Great Victory


Once more have the gallant sons OF Louis.
lana exhibited their prowess. Thursday the
intrepid young men belonging to the Boys
Central High School in New Orleans
marched to the Girls Lower High School.
and demanded the removal therefrom of
the cOlored pupils. The young men were
calm. but there was determination in their
eyes, and they we're evidently not to be trifl
ed with. Though the foe, in the shape of four
or fi.e little colored girls, was before them,
that band Of brav~ boys did not shrink or
hesitate, There was q hundred Or 60 of
them. and they did not hesitate to say that
they would triumph or perish in the at
tempt. The girls must 60, peaceably it they
would. but if fight was necessary the
young men boldly declared they would not
finch from it. Now what did those girls do!
Stand their ground, like brave Trojan and
fight it out on tie color line. Not bit. They
exhibited the cowafdice aud inferiority of
the col0red race by basely Fielding. The four
or five little girls gathered up their books,
their slate pencils and hats, which they
were nagnanimOusiy permitted TO- take,
aud marched out They were even allowed
to carry away their oveyshOes and such lit
tie articles OF extra clothing, maps, etc. as
they had brought with them; but they went.
And behind them followed the chivalrous
and triumphsn mt band OF fearless young men
who had wrought this great but b!oOdless
victory.
There's nerve for you. There's pluck,
and mettie. and dazzling vslor such as we
are won't TO read about and celebrate in
song and story.
Hurrah, huIrah for che brave young meas
Recount their valoR with tongue and pen.
And when their statues are placed on high.
Under the dome of the Southern sky
yhe American heroes temple of fame.
There. with each bright sDd glorious narne
j.. it said In letters both bold and bright:
" HeIe are the boys who saved the day,
And manfuliiy carried the desperate dghs
sHto tho misses sch ool one day,
And drove ths eolored girls away"
