UNITED STATES SERA TORsHIR.

The arrival Of the eN-President and his
stay at the Maxwell House has somewhat
revived herCahouts the discussion of the
United States Senatorshir He has had a
good many visitors TO room No. so, and Of
course they have not hc.it,t,d to speak Of
what candy" thought ON reaching The
streets.
Mr.. johnson claims that twenty-five out
Of the thirty delegates from East Tennes-
see will vote for him, and that he is conf
dent Of getting from thirty to thirty-6ve
votes in Middle and West Tennessee. This
he says would elect him, ffty-one votes
being required 10 make n choice He ap
pears to be confident of success.
The tilt between himself and Governor
Brown during the last canvass, made both
very conspicuous as rival cand dates for the
lofty position now almost ready to fall ts
the lot of some one of the half dozen or
more candidates.
Governor Brown, though he is regarded
as prominent candidate for the Senator
ship, we believe has never yet made any
open ayowal of the fact. But whether he
has or not, he is SO regarded, aud il will
not be ere long, possibly before he viii
announce himself straight out IA candi-
datc.
Gen. W. A. Qusrlcs has placed himself
sQunrcly tcfore the Legislature, to which
he recently addressed a three-column card,
as q candidate. II = card was generally
re-d, producing considerable comment.

Gen. W. B. Bate, of Davidson, is pron-
inent candidate for the Senatorship. He
has been known "a an aspirant for that or
ice Tor some time past, though we believe
he has not yet made any public avowal Of
it.
Hon. John Eetherland, Of East Tennes-
see, is mentioned in connection with seat
in the Senate.
W II. Stephens, of West Tennessee, kas
been prominently spoken of in that por.
tion OF the State in connection with the
high position.
The name of James ID. Porter, Jr., Gov
ernor elect, has been frequently mentioned
of late as one whose claim might be brought
before the Legislature.
| Judge James A Bailey, Of Clarksville, il
talked about in quiet way, his name oo-
casionally appearing in the prints in that
| relation.
| Col. Savage, it will be remembered, cros-
sed and recrossed the trail of Mr.. johnson
until both had traversed the State, in 0cto-
Der, putting forward his claims for the Sem
atorship. 1t is said Col, Savage is now in
East Tennessee "still hunting" and that
he will shortly come over into Middle Ten
nessee, and reach Memphis in time to re
turn to Nashville jut before the meeting
of the Legislature.
The Senatorial election will take place
some days after the organization of both

TELEGRAPHIC SUMMARY
HOME.

VICKsBURG, Dec. There has
been, for some time, trouble brewing
between the tax payers association and
the citizens and county officials. The
Sheriff was acting without a legal
bond and the board of supervisors re-
fused to order new one although the
time for paying taxes had arrived.
Two or three other officials were un.
der Indictment for forgery and embez~
elements, and the citizens despairing of
any relief from the partisan courts,
had n meeting last Wednesday and in
a body, proceeded TO the court house
to demand the resignation of the Sher-
if, Chancery Clerk, Treasurer aud
Coroner. All fed except Sheriff Cro--
by, Il negro, and he signed his resigna'
ton.
On Saturday, card appeared in the
streets, signed Crosby, calling on all
the citizens of Warren county, Repub-
licans, white and black, TO come to his
aid and support him in his position.
Crosby, publicly and through the pa
pers, denied the authorship of the card,
yet, this morning, armed bodies Of ne
groes appeared advancing on the city
from six different roads. The alarm
was sounded about o'clock, and the
citizens gathered en- mdS2e, armed, and
Immediately advanced to meet the me-
groes on the Baldwin's Ferry road.
The negroes were met just outside of
the city on Grove street about 200
strong. The commander of the citi-
zens warned the negroes TO disperse,
but they refused, and Immediately fir
ing commenced on both sides. The
negroes retreated about mile and
again made a stand in the old breast
works and house, but were soon rout-
ed. The loss in this engagement was
one citizen, Oliver Brown, who was
killed. About twelve or fifteen ne
gres were killed and several wounded
and about twenty prisoners were
taken. On the Hills Ferry road about
$50 negroes were met and routed after
a short engagement, with several killed
and wounded.

Illness of Judge Trigg.

The Memphis Appeal of Wednes-
day morning says:
Hon, Connally f. Trigg is confined
by illness to his rooms at Nashville.
His duties have of late been quite la.
borious, having kept him on the bench
continuously at Knoxville, Memphis
and Nashville during the past four
months, without rest or intermission.
This heavy tax upon his strength, we
regret to learn, has somewhat impair
ed his health, though we hope not
seriously or permanently. 1t is hoped
that a few weeks rest, which he in
tends to take, will restore his strength,
and that he will he able to hold his
court here, commencing next month.
In the interim the court will be held
by Judge Ballard, of Kentucky, and
by Judge Edmonds, who is expected

Murder in JacLson, North Carolina

We are informed that on the even
ing of the Goth ult., Coot Long and Joe
Mitchell, while on spree, went TO a
place called Savannah Creek, miles
the other side of Webster, for the pur-
pose of procuring liquor. While there
they quaTrelled, and Mitchell shot
Long, the latter dying from the effects
of the wound next morning. Mitchell
is from East Tennessee and during the
latter part of the war was employed
on the Government transports that
piled between Knoxville and Chatta-
nOoga. Long is native. Neither of
them had trades profession, and were
classed with that incongruous mass
known in this country as "traders. -
Both were regarded as desperate men
when phrensied with whisky.-Ashe-

LoNDoN, Dec. l0.-The storm Of
yesterday was very disastrous to the
shipping. a dozen vessels are ashore
at Whitby, and one Is reported to have
sunk with all on board. Similar ac-
counts are received from points all

France are several hours behind time.
The packet for Ostend was compelled
to return TO Dover. Heavy damage
was done TO the works in the haTboTs
of Jersey. Two hundred and sixty
yards of piers were swept away and
blocks of concrete weighing several
tons we're displaced aud broken. The
storm was very severe on the the Com
tinent. The telegraph lines between
Italy, Switzerland and Paris are down
and communication is interrupted.

rendered his opinion this afternoon,
denying a motion to continue the in
junction restraining the Police Com
missions from interfering with Sunday
concerts at Terrace Garden. The Court
sustains the conslitutionality of the
act for the better preservation of peace
on Sunday, and declares the things
prohibited need not be expressed in
the title; and moreover, the Court
can not say judicially that the pro-
hibition OF theatrical performances on
Sunday does not oonduce TO the pre-
servation Of peace on that day.

which took effect, one killing Mosh-
er instantly, the other so woUnding
Douglass that he died in an hour af-
forwards. Douglass before dying said
his dying companion knew all
about the kidnapping Of Charlie Ross.
Mosher is supposed to be the man
with the goggles who entiCed the
boys into the buggy. The older boy
was thrust from the buggy and the

husbands heart, the wife should remain
there forever. Men make a fatal mis-
take when they think to command more
respect from their wives by playing the
tyrant at home. They only destroy the
love they have labored to win. Let
them do all their grumbling at the office,
or in the street, and not save their i'll
nature to vent in perfect shower upon
the inmates of home.
When husbands, being so prone to
faults themselves, have the good sense
not to expect perfection in their wives
when they cease 10 expect their wives
TO be the slaves of their every caprice, to
expect the dinner to be upon the table
at the precise moment, with the meats
done TO turn" and bread baked to a
marvel-when all these little things are
changed for the better, there will be
more gladness in every home, and much
more of domestic happiness.
There is perhaps in every woman's
life time when some man regards her
as possessing every womanly virtue.
This is the time of her youth and beauty,
and when she is beloved. And when
really married, let the husband but con-
tinue 10 be the lover and the wife will
be happy and content in being the idol
of one faithful heart.
