RELIEF WANTED.


The short article which we publish
ed last week, calling attention to the
distress existing in this county and the
necessity for immediate relief, has been
the means of bringing to light much
larger amount Of want than we had
supposed The pressure is not so
much for meat and bread, as food fer
work-stock, and the worst feature in
the case is that the inability to make
crop must prolong and intensity the
suffering throughout the next year.
And as the relief, to be effective, must
be prompt, we suggest meeting at the
Court house, on next Monday, to take
into consideration the best means Of
affording it. GAINESVILLE, as the CEN
trail market of the county has deep
interest in its agricultural products, as
well as in the thrift of the farmers,
and should, as a matter of self-inter-
est, as well as of humanity, open its
heart and purse to the cry for relief.
The tobacco dealers are especially in
terested in the amount and quality of
the weed, and, making the Investment
safe by lien, can help. themselves and
others by lending the small sums re-
quired to keep the pillow in motion.
We would respectfully suggest that the
clergy, of the city and county, may do
much good by appeals to their congre-
cations to hunt up cases of want and
relieve them by private collections, or
congregational contributions. Whilst
we have no disposition to dictate any
modes ofrelief, yet we would fail in our
duty, as a journalist, if we did not call
attention to so grave a subject and
earnestly invoke the combined aid of
enlightened interest and christian
charity to relieve the pressure OF mis-
fortunes entailed by circumstances
which could neither be foreseennor
averted.

Local Option at HopkinsriIle.

HOPKINsvILLE, KY, May 1.-The
vote to-day resulted in favor of local
option by l63 majority.
Excitement ran high, for some time,
in the above locality, for and against
licensed tippliug. Local option carried
the day, but we are not prepared to
say it was wisely done The license
fees are lost to the revenue. and the
cOntiguity of Robertson county affords
facilities for whisky drinking, by
wholesale, or retail, and against which
local option can be no safeguard. We
hope, however, the experiment will
prove favorable to the cause of tenn
perance.

THELegislature which has just ad-
journed passed a law taking effect in
July, next, which provides, that after
that time, the larceny of any article
worth less than $50 90 shall be mis-
demeanor. The punishment shall be
Imprisonment in the Jail or workhouse,
and all costs of prosecution shall be
paid by the counties instead Of the
State as heretofore.
The passage of this act alone will, it
is estimated, reduce the current ex-
penses of the State at law $500, 900 per
annum and, of course, imposea CORES
pondiug burden upon the various
counties.
The county of Montgomery will here
after be called on to pay two-thirds of
the costs of all criminal prosecutions
in this court. and unless we can at once
establish an efficient workhouse sys
TEN, will have to board most of her
criminals in Jail at the expense of the
people.

AS matter Of interest to the public

As matter Of interest to the public
generally, we call attention to the fol-
lowing sections of an act of the recent
Legislature, passed March 18th, 1875 !:
SEC. 4. Be it further enacted, That
all applications for appropriations by
the Quarterly Courts ofthis State shall
be made first to the Quorum Courts.
ting last before the meeting of the
Quarterly Court at which the appro-
priation is to be passed upon.
SEC. 5. Be it further enacted, That
it shall be the duty of.the- Clerk of the.
County Court to keep book in which
said applications for appropriations
shall be entered when made to the
Quorum Court, and the same shall be
open for the inspection of the citizens
of the county.
Sec g. Be it further enacted, That
the Quarterly Courts shall not consid
er or make any appropriation unless
the same shall have first been entered
in book as hereinbefore required.
1t will be seen from the above that
all claims against the county, of what
ever nature, must be presented to the
County Judge on the first Monday in
June, ifan appropriation in July is de-
sired, and entered in book kept for
that purpose by the County Clerk, and
that no claim not so entered can be
considered by the Quarterly Court at
its next term.
Many poor persons have been re-
ceiving relief through the Quarterly
Court, and many others have render
ed services for which they expect to be
paid in July. All these should be
careful to have their claims in by the
first Monday in June.
The Quarterly Court, atits lastterm
appointed committee to pass upon
each one of these claims and report at
the next term.
This we think was a wise order. It
will save the court great deal of time
and trouble, and secure the rejection
of all unjust claims against the coun-

MURDER AND LYNCHING.-Friday
afternoon Of last week an unprovoked
and atrocious murder was committed
in Nashville. 10. Reed tcolored) and
his wife had been fighting, when officer
Robert Frazier, of the police force,
was called in to quell the disturbance,
and told Reed he would have to go to
the work-house. Reed said no one
policemen could take him there. The
officer told him he would have to go,
when Reed drew his pistol and shot
him through the breast killing him
almost instantly. Reed Immediately
ran off; but was soon captured,
and was lodged in Jail, though loud
threats of lynching were made by the
crowd which had gathered.
The Jail was guarded by officers, but
shortly after dark a large crowd had
assembled, and forcing their way
through the guard they broke through
five doors and took the prisoner out
and placing rope about his neck, pro-
ceeded to the suspension bridge with
him. On reaching the bridge a shot
was fired through the head of the vic
tim aaG he was thrown over the rail-
ing, when the rope broke and his body
fell to the ground and is supposed TO
have rolled into the river, as a long
search for it proved fruitless.
While the crime for which Reed suf-
fered was an atrocious one and one
which deserved speedy and terriblepun-
ishment, the action of the mob which
took the law into its own hands is to
be deplored, and it is but just to say
that the authorities used their efforts to
prevent it.
