The following lines beautifully ez>

author is unknown, but this creation
of genius tells US that Somewhere
in Gods Great Universe" there is
a post who can touch the tenderest ties
that ever linked soul to soul:
How can I cease to pray for thse? SImewhers
Ia Gods great universe thou art to-day
Can He not reach thee with His tender care?
Can lie not hear when for the pray'
What matters it to Him who holds within
The hollow Of His hand all worlds, all space,
That thou art done with earthly pain and sin
Some where in his ken thou hast a place!
Somewhere thou livsst, and hast need Of Him;
Somewhere thy soul sees higher heights TO climb;
And somewhere still there may be valleys dir
That thou must pass to rssoE the hills sublime
Then all the more, because thou canst not hear,
Poor. human words Of blessing viii pray,
o tine brave heart, God bless thee, wheresoe'cr
In his great universe thou art to-day.

Now that the Executive Com-
mittte have determined upon the time
and place Of holding the Democratic
Congressional Convention, it behooves
the voters of the district to begin to cast
around for suitable person to make
this important canvass. is now con-
ceeded on all hands that the Hon. Bar
bour Lewis, the present incumbent will
be y candidate for reelection While the
strength cf Judge Lewis is admitted,
it is likewise admitted that he can be
defeated, but in order to do this great
circumspection and caution must be OBJ
served, eloquence alone viii not accom-
plish this result, but we must put forth
man of untiring energy, faUltless record,
az well as high order Of talent. Unless
these elements are combined in Bar
bours opponent, the canvass viii result
in inevitable defeat 1t will be remem>
bered that sometime ago, call was
made through the Memphis Appeal, ac>
companied by a very fatterirg editorial,
upon our former citizen I. C. Lowe, Esq,
to become candidate for this Office
As yet, no reply has been made to this
call, but all hands concede the fitness of
Mr.. Lowe for this canvass, and should
he receive the nomination, be would
rally as strong a support if not indeed
the very strongest that could be had, for
he would not lose a moments time, nor
leave a stone unturned from the begin
ming Of the canvass to the end. MIR.
Lowe was born and raised in Hardeman
county, he began the practice of the
law in Bolivar, in 1868, though quite a
young man, he made an enviable repu~
tation, in fact took stand at the very
head and front Of The bar and profession.
He afterwards removed to Memphis,
where he has with his usual energy and
astuteness, pursued his calling, and won
for himself name as a lawyer of which
even its sages of the law might be proud
All of which is attributable alone to his
sleepless energy and zeal, aud more
than ordinary degree of talent. Mr..
Lowe has the peculiar faculty of drawing
to him friends and supporters from
all grades, both of fortune and society,
and 1 assert it without fear of contradic
ton, that no man in the district could
more fully develop the strength OF
the Democratic party. We must not Put
forward a man hitherto ertanged in
political measures with past political
sins and difficulties to explain and OBJ
literate but he should be a man with a
clear record, one who has never sought
political preferment and Of whom the
people have not tired, and as sure as
fate unless such a course Is pursued, de-
feat instead of victory viii be the re-
ward Mr.. Lowe has a great many ad.
mire-s and staunch friends in Fayctte
ane Hardeman counties as we'll as q
host of them in Shelby, and if any man in
the district can possibly defeat the re-
publican candidate. Mr.. Lowe is Ger.
tainly the man.

Memorial Resolutions

The following was adopted by the
Salisbury Sunday School, respecting the
death of Miss Martha Moore, one Of its
most exemplary members, who died in
her seventeenth year, at her father $,
Cd. A. MoOre), near salisbury, Tenn,
June 10, 1874 For about five years she
was a member of the NJ z Church,
South, which she graced with a christian
character, untarnished, till her exit from
earth. She was long a member of the
salisbury Sabbath School-faithful and
true to every duty. She was meek and
gentle as a lamb; loving all, she was
loved by all, and departing, has left a
name bright with christian 7irtues-a
heritage immortal, written on the tablets
of unfading memory. But while we weep
toNday that she is lost to Us and can
meet with us no more, we rejoice to be-
lieye that she has passed the pearly gate
and is happy in the rev brigh: world,
free from sorrow, free from death
Whereas, it has pleased God in this
dark dispensation to alfiict us so sorely
IN removing from our school and circle
the dear one departed, therefore,
ResOlced, that we hereby express the
high esteem in which Ee held her and
the memory which we will ever cherish
of Der as a gentle, modest friend, Sab
! bath School mate, and sweet, lamb-like
christian, and that we deeply mourn her
early death and absence from our school
and circle
Resolred, that the entire school hereby
tender our sympathies t. the bereaved
and disconsolate parents, aud pray for
their re~union with her in the Better
Land
Resolped, that n copy OF these resolu-
tons be furnished the afflicted parents
also, that they be spread upon the records
/ Of the school, and a copy sent to the
! BoLIyAR BCLLETTS and a suitable memo~
I rial be forwarded to the Westeya Ieth-

the latter was standing beside bis wife

of danger. The murderer escaped to Ar

The 9Th Of August Election for
Chancellor.

There is no Office to be filed in the
coming election SO important to the peo-
pie of this county as that Of Chancellor.
The proper administration and settles
ment of estates, the careful protection of
the interest Of minors, the security of
titles to property are dependent in a
great measure uron the character and
qualifications Of the Chancellor.
There are two candidates for the suf-
frages of the people
One of them is Henry j. Livingston Of
Haywood, who has now held the position
for two years past, and whose fitness and
qualifications for the place have been
fully and fairly teeted There is bat one
voice among the people as to how he has
administered the Office. None deny his
ability as lawyer or his competency as
Judge. He has in the six counties of
his district, given general satisfaction.
The lawyers of the District have with
singular unanimitY politically borne tes-
timony to his eminent capacity for the
position, and citizens who have had bus
mess in his court most heartily endorse
their testimony. To Judge Livingston s
acknowledged ability as a lawyer is now
superadded two years experience on the
bench.
The other candidate is Mr.. B. p. Boyd,
also from Haywood, and We do that gen
tleman no injustice when we say that lie
has neither the necessary legal ability or
experience, and his best friends could
nat in candor claim for him the qualif-
cations for the position On the contrary
his incapacity is not even an open ques-
ton among those who know him as
lawyer, bat is an established verify, and
it is right and proper that it should be
thus plainly stated, for 1t is a matter of
no ordinary importance to the people Of
this Chancery District
This being so, how can Mr. Boyd ex~
pect an election to place he is so poorly
qualified to fill? We regret to believe
that appeals to the passions of ignorance
and the prejudices of Race are to be
used for such purpose, but so it is, and
we call attention without further COM
ment to the paragraph below this article
sent to us from Jackson, the statements
of which can be fully verified. Choose
ye betUeen them
In a speech to negro meeting at the
| Fair Grounds, near jackson, on Satur-
day, 18th inst, Conte, a negro from
Haywood county, appealed to the negroes
of Madison county to support B, p Boyd
! OF Haywood for Chancellor, urging
| among others the following reasons {:
"He (Conte) was negro, one of their
own race and color. He was now a
candidate for clerk of the Circuit Court
of Haywood coanty, and his opponent,
Thos A Rayner, the present incumbent
was the Gle of B. P. Boyd, being
Boyd's mothers brother, and so great
was BoYd's love and affection tor the
colored race that he hal worked for the
election of Conte (the negro) against
Rayner (Boyd's uncle) and was still ac-
lively supporting him (Conte)" Boyd
was sitting in the Speakers stand within
arms length of Conte (his negro friend)
and no blush of shame mantled his
cheek while this negro boosted of Boyds
apostacy, not only to his race and color,
