A man named Murphy, claiming to hail
from Dover, Stewart county, Tennessee,
went to a farmers house, in Upton county,
at one O'Clock yesterday afternoon, and cut
Mrs Milton Donaldson's head open with an
axe, killing her.
He also cut two great gashes on the head
of a negress, a servant, who subsequently,
partially recovering, gave the alarm. Muir
ply was chased, caught, and confessed to
cutting the negress, but not to the murder
Of Mrs. Donaldson; but the negress identi-
fled him as the man who committed both
deeds He was shot at 8 o'clock last night
by citizens, his guilt having been fully
established. He murdered Mrs Donaldson
with a view to robbery. Mr.. Donaldson's
safe is supposed to contain $1,000. The
negress will not survive her wounds.

The St. Philip Canal a
Surety.
Telegraph to the Bulletin.l

WASHINGTON, May 3O.-The jetty men,
with all their expenditures in detracton
and examining the press, cannot count fifty
votes in the House, as we believe, so telling
have been the reports of the United States
Engineer Board and of the Chief of Eng-
neers in proving the rapid extension of
jetties, and the total absence Of a literal
current.
Major Howells recent survey and sonnd-
ings in both the canal bills are complete, the
substantially the same, and
require the completion of the canal for act
nal use within three years, while Fades
bills in both Senate and House give him
eight months to begin and thirty months to
obtain twenty feet water, and seven and a
half years to complete the twenty seven feet
at low tide. Several parties stand ready to
bid for the canal construction as provided
for in three years, and to give enormous
bonds. Fades bill provides for none.
1t is highly probable that Congress will
make further appropriation for the proven
ton Of famine in the flooded region, though
it is uncertain whether the amount esti-
mated by the committee as already reported
can be obtained. Gratuites may cease when
ever labor is furnished, not before. Congress
will appreciate this, and we hope to rebuild
the leyees

which consisted in a stirring and eloquent
address by Col. Eugene Waggaman, in

Respected SIR noticed, in one of your
issues Of about month ago, an account Of
the "Villa of Pat Clark in which you
state that measures We're being taken to
have him removed. Permit me to say that
he still occupies the same old stand, and
daily dispenses milk, profanity and perfume,
not exactly Jockey Club" to the residents
in the neighborhood. Will you kindly stir
up the authorities on the subject through
the columns Of your valuable journal, and,
if it is not too much, will you put this in
your "Growler's Column" and TINS render
me forever your debtors A SUFFERER.
There are just three hundred individuals
who have been waiting on each other to
move in the premises, not the premises Of
Clark, but in the matter of the removal of
Clark.
No one has taken, as vet, the initiative.
A petition properly gotten up and signed by
citizens, directed to the Council. will effect
the object. Our information was based on
the statements of number of gentlemen
residing in the neighhorhood.

Con" fess n Ind Our SUI ffe rers.

WASHINGTON, May 3O.-The interests of
Louisiana and the flooded delta are engag-
ing the attention of members of Congress in
several aspects. The distress from high
waters and crevasses in the levees command
sympathy and weighty consideration. First,
the levee breaches are so great, and their
strength and size so inadequate, as to put
them entirely beyond repair and constrnc-
ton by the delegated States. Congress
must undertake the work as the food will
be repeated every year, even without very
high water.
The State Engineer OF Louisiana esti-
mates the work required to save Louisiana
alone as amounting to 100000 cubic
yards. We estimate 600 900 each for Mis-
sissippi and Arkansas. to provide temporary
safety. The 100000 cubic yards will cost
81, 500, 900 or more, even under the careful
disbursement of the United States Engineer.
The people whose crops are destroyed
need employment, and must have provisions
or perish. Give them work and disburse
this sum of money among them for levee
the burden, certainly awaiting, of feeding
to prevent famine among an idle people, for
no crops can be male by them until next
year, and not then without rebuilding the
levees. These views we are constantly
urging, and we have the cooperation of all
the members from the flooded regions, and
have strong hopes that these general views
will prevail.
Meantime the Commission provided for
under Gen. Morey's bill can proceed to the
digestion of such system for Matchmaking the
levees, and retaining the whole delta as
shall be warranted by scientific investiga-
ton and professional experience. The Fort
St. Philip Canal is certainty in the near
future, we hope this session. Still the oppo-
stion of Senator West may furnish a pre-
text to Senators who wish to be very eco
nomcal, and have interests IN Eastern out
let's of Western products, for delays till
next session, and may thus postpone it.

LANDAULET WILLIAMS.

The judicial adviser Of the President, At
torney General Williams, has, by his i'm
pertinence and arrogant bearing, brought
down upon himself at last the indignation
Of many in his own party. We all rernem-
Der his insolent dispatch to the people Of
Louisiana, when they intimated their inten-
ton to send delegation to Washington to
represent their wrongs, and we have rot for
gotten the positive coarseness and rudeness
evinced by him when, finding that he could
not repel the committee, he was compelled
to meet them and discuss the merits of the
case.
Not only has this overbearing and sadly
deficient official offended by his bluffness
and coarseness, but he has managed to create
a scandal by his landaulet exploit, which
must make his presence near the President
extremely obnoxious. The entire country
was amazed that a man occupying the ex-
allied position of Attorney General, would
stoop to the dishonesty Of using, as his pri-
vate equipage, magnificent landaulet,
which was paid for by the Government, and
of sporting fine horses as his own for which
the Government also paid, but the amaze
ment thus excited will be turned into dis
gust when it is known that he has been
guilty of piece Of unmistakable petty lar
ceny, as witness the following from the
Chicago Times
1t was shown in the district inquiry that
one of the contractors for the Board Of Pub
lie Works lad excavated the basement for
one of the Attorney Generals houses, and
had been paid therefor the sum of $500 by
the Board of Public Works. The contractor
presented further bill for $500, but the
board refused to pay it, and Williams also
found it incOnvenient to pay it. This
transaction can be regarded as but one
thing-a piece Of downright deliberate
theft-and added to the manner in which
Williams plundered the General Govern
ment for the benefit of his household, will
place him in very dlshonorable light be
fore the people. If he should create va
cancy in the Department Of Justice, Mr..
Grant might be able to find more honest
man to fill it, and the people would be
greatly pleased.
1t is not possible that the President can
longer tolerate this exalted rascal near his
person. He cannot permit this public plum
derer to longer disgrace the position which
has been graced and honored by William

A Chapter on BucOlfcs.

Dear Grorler-We think we have reason
TO growl at you. Your grandmother-if we
mistake the relationship, forgive us-the
venerable lady Pic. lies in mortal agony, and
you are so forgetful Of the first duties of
tilial piety as to do nothing for her relief.
She has the Bu-colics, and breads worse COM
plants. Physicians have given her up.
They looked puzzled. They say that ordi-
nary COLES, though the symptoms are urgent
and even severe, are comparatively harmless
affections, and seldom prove fatal; and they
have discovered great variety of them.
But, Bu-colics! "NO, no." The faculty is be-
wildered The learned doctors have studied
in vain the mysteries of abdominal contor-
tons, and the malady Of the Pic. battles the
wisdom of the craft.
. But, doctors, to it again: don't take the
old Lady's word for it; diagnose the disease
yourselves: she is FESTIVE, and an old wo-
man is prone to lamentation, in which her
sntferings are exaggerated. Perhaps it is
nothing but little grippe after all, conse-
quent upon an overloaded stomach and late
hours, especially when INDUCED in to soothe
the tender sensitiveness of "a Faint Heart"
Say her ailment was little protracted,
we still don't think that it was really COLES.
1t must have been the nightmare. Her
mind wandered. She saw the Richard of
three and more years ago smother his rela-
tives," and "reeking SHAMELESS (fesh-mar-
kets! see Deg oppressed her burning brain.
Or are we all mistaken. Has the lady no
COLES at all9 Does she mean what she says
and put in that dash (-) only to convey
with more over-powering emphasis her high
appreciation of rustic simplicity and pastor
al tenderness. Bucolics! sAmateur Ira
GIGS" beware! In the future, shake not the
sensitive nerves of my lady Pic. with any
thing more stirring than the tabor and the
pipe: or more exciting than the picture of
the gentle Tityrus, reclining on the banks of
the Tiber, singing his innocent song to the
eminent delight Of his sheep and other
equally inotfensive quadrupeds peacefully
grazing on the distant hills
1t is permitted to relieve the back ground
of the picture by the under torn of Tityrus'
Chloe, skipping over the hills and gathering
wild flowers, to weave her loving swain
garland. Think of this when next you
choose yonr plays, and, as You value the lady's
good opinion, do not underestimate the
beauty, the tenderness, the innocence, the
ravishing simplicity of her classic taste.

Decoration Day.

WASHINGTON, May 30.-Reports here and
reports from the North show there was but
a feeble decoration of graves.
MEMPHIS, May 30.-Decoration Day was
observed principally by the various colored
societies, who repaired to the National
Cemetery this morning and after placing
flowers on the graves listened to an address
by Ed. Shaw, colored wharfmaster, and G. Il.
Smith, surveyor of the park.
NASHVILLE, May N.-The graves of the
Federal dead in the National Cemetery were
decorated to-day. There was an attendance
of about $500.
1t is reported that just after prayers and
before proceeding to scatter flowers on the
graves difficulty occurred among some
colored people, in which one woman and
several men were knocked down with rocks.
One man is reported seriously injured. The
difficulty is much regretted by the better

HINTS TO COTTON FACTORS.

weights, ETC., and have, through regular

account of the cost and red tape working OF

sampling cotton, and neither take loose nor
allow it to be taken. 1t is equally wrong
to take the loose for the factor, as it is for
the factor to pay his weigher per bale and
allow loose to weigher. Let the loose be

2. Let the brokers pay the men they send
to receive the cotton and instruct the press
men to charge for any excess of weight over
s ounces per bale. at the rate the best of cot
ton was sold for.
). Let buyers have cotton inspected, and
allow no loose to be taken from the press
but have the loose weighed in presence OF
the inspector, and certificate of weight
given, and to whom sent for sale, packing or
baling The whole thing is easily solved.
Pay for work, and do not expect men to
work for nothing.
4. Pay fair rate for hauling, storing and
handling cotton, and do not expect press
men to do fifty cents worth of work for
twenty-five cents, and not make themselves
even by taking cotton to pay for the differ
