LOUISVILLE. July 2S.-Tobacco
Exchange Banking Company. of this

the crash having any effect on the
business of this city. 1t would affect

those States. In the Western States
also many houses would more or less
suffer.
The agents of the Union Bank of
London (the Bank of New York; say
there is no truth in the rumor of its

being in the fact that the cables an

WHITE TRAsu.-"Thc bottom rail is
certainly on the top" or very nearly so,
i'll Washington, if we may judge from
the action of gentleman whose eupho-
nious name is Smith. Hitherto unknown
to fame save as one of a great family,
whose pedigree can be traced fnr back
beyond the Hapsburgs, and to whose nn-
cestors old julius Caesar was but n par
venu, Henry, of that stock, made his
mark in the worlds history MS the sha-
dows were falling on the closing hours
of tho pleasant June month. Refusing
to accept tho decree of the Fifteenth
Amendment, making white men the
equals Of colored gentlemen, Smith
boldly closed the doors Of his hostelry
in the face of n presuming "white trash, u
who sought comfort and refreshment in
place sacred to colored respectability.
And now this ''white trash" brings Smith
into court to compel the colored people
to receive him into their inns and society
under the tyrannical provisions of the
Fifteenth Amendment. Smith has our
best sympathy in this struggle, and we
think the man who pretends that there is
anything like equality between "white
trash" and colored gentlemen must be in
q state Of mind that would Justify the
authorities in Washington in taking
active measures for the protection of the
public BY lodging this hrebrand in
FORTRESS Monroe until such time as he
had learned to recognize the fact that
sthe bottom rail 10 on the top" and that
he had better not hy ted disturb II.

IHE LANGLEY FIRE--The last particles
Of cotton and cotton goods were taken
from the warehouse at Langley. yester-
day. The total loss will amount to about
lOU bnies of cotton and 50 bales Of ma
nufactured goods-much less than was
at first expected. $1,000 will cover the
damage to the building. 1t is evident
that the lightning struck the warehouse
and almost lnstantaneously spread itself
over every bale Of cotton, attracted by
the iron ties. In this way nll the cotton
was set on fire Mt the same time. On
leaving the building, the electric fluid
made Il large hole in the floor and passed
into the earth beneath. Immediately
named Moses Wright hcro:cally set to
work to drag out cotton and goods from
the building, VIXEN all others refused to
so into 1t. He continued his efforts un-
ccaslngly until overpowered 10y heat unl
smoke, and Was carried out in n faintinc
condition. He soon revived, however,
and, with extraordinary courage, re-
turned to the warehouse and began again
the work he had been compelled to
leave. Finally, q portion of bale Of
goods fell upon and seriously injured
him. He tainted ngnin, and was taken
up and Carried TO his home Every at
tention was shown him, but in vain He
died, yesterday morning, Mt 10 o'clock
The physician in attendance thinks that
his death was caused by exhaustion from
his arduous labors i'll the warehouse
amid the heat and poisonous smoke, and
not by the injuries resulting from the
fall of the bale of goods upon him.
Moses leaves wife and two children.
Operations at the factory will be resumed
next Monday.

An old farmer once said that he

Said he never knew a whistling

extra work he was asked to do.
Such a man was generally l1nd to
