A BRAVE MAN.-Some newspaper has late
ly unearthed story Of mob law iu Henry CO.,
Kentucky, 10 1859, story which will bear con
densation, and which should 90 down to poster
ity, describing an example to be initiated, and a
scene TO be inmortrzed In 1859 there resided
in the county named several brothers bearing
the name of Henry, one of whom was charged
with murder. He was acquitted upon trial. but
the mob was dissatisfied with the verdict aud
demanded that not only the man charged with
the crime but all his brothers should leave the
county. One Of the brothers thus unjusty ban-
ned was slow to leave, and in consequence was
assalled, being shot at and narrowly escaping
with his life. His wife and children were
afterwards taken to him by young man named
Hunly. Then the mob demanded that HuGy
should leave the region Hunly went to his
house and told his aged parents of the situation
they decided not to obey the mob aud barricad-
I'd the house.
Outhe next day the mob came, twenty masked
men and numbers of respectable citizens who
dare not resist. The mob rode up to the house
and demanded the body of young Hunly. The
old mother appeared at window and replied
that her son had committed no offense; he had
simply aided an innocent woman and children;
he would not be driven out Of the country like u
criminal; she and her husband were prepared
to die with him. Then she bowed and retired.
The mob crowded forward, but there was man
among the spectators to be heard. As the old
mother ceased talking he came forward with
tears on his face and said "Ot all fortunes iu
life there is nothing like its fortunate ending
a man should be esteemed fortunate who finds
40 aoswer to the old Methodist prsper, Lord,
give us good time to get out Of the world. ;
| may live hundred years without finding
another opportunity to so happily end my life.
| am blessed My prayer is answered | will
die with these people !" Then drawing his pis-
tol the man (his name was Pollard) placed bis
back to the door and his face to the mob. The
effect Was grand Aesitatiug citiz ms, lacking
but the nerve to oppose rufaanism, rushed to
Pollard s support. The mob fed for their lives
before the desperate resolve OF the men before
them, and Hunly and his family were saved.
Pollard's Dame is still synonym for brave
manhood iu Henry county, and his glorious
example has done not little good. Could q
grander speech be col lived than this brief one
of six clean sentences? Aud is not the story
one to become immortal?

SOLD AT AUCTIoS.-The six hundred
acre stock farm OF President Grant,
near ST. Louis, though stocked with
the best breeds that money or position
could secure, and furnished with every
facility for the profitable breeding ol
fine horses, cost its exalted owner S9O-
600 more than it brought in last year.
This so disgusted the official stock
raiser that be determined to sell OF
most of the stock and change his man
ager, and try 20 make the farm pay It's
way, 80 every farm should do. On
the last day of September, therefore,
while the Great American Cav
al:er No. 2 Was taking A little relaAa-
tion from his arduous duties by COM
ing West to see Brigham Young, the
Presidents fine blood horses, presents
and all, were sold at auction for
mere song, going at an unparalleled
sacrifice. His "war hOIse," upon
which he rode through the Nicksburg
campaign, brought only S56. The hue
mare Topsey, presented to the PreNI
dent by Russian Ambassador, brought
but $50. Indeed, many Of the horses
thus inundated on the auction block
were presents to our Executive. There
is an old proyerb that 1t will not do TO
look a gift horse in the mouth -
but this maxim cannot be construed 10
prohibit the sale of gift horses. At
least 50 thinks our frugal President
when thoughtfully retrenching person

ever had a lot of finer stock that cost
him less than this, which has again
been virtually given away. It was bei

- y KEY-NoTE TO SUcCEss.-The KEY
note Of successful politics, in a strictly
party sense, too, was sharply struck
by Governor Tilden when he recon-
mended independent voting as the
remedy against nominations not fit
to be made" The New York World
most justly remarks that it is always
the rascals in party who pull down
and destroy it, and the way to control
and eliminate supertuity of naughti-
ness is simply to picket the rascals.
They are not sensitive TO ordinary IN
tiuences, but can understand wonder
fully well what it implies 10 be beaten
on a winning ticket Party mana
gers likewise are powerless to coun-
teract this specific. What use is there
for them to put their tools in nomi-
nation if the people refrain from voting
for them: The surprising virtue in a
" scratched ticket is that it not only
puts quietus npon the rascal nominee
of to-day, but guarantees US virtue in
the nominees to be put forward TO-
morrow.
