A VENERABLE PlUTE.-Old Captain
Panco who with his brother Truckee
were the guides to Fremonts party on
their first expedition to this coast in
1874 or 1915, was in town last Sunday
The old man was with Fremont during
the Mexican War, and went with him to
Lower California, and was in several en-
gagements with the Mexicans. He IS
uncle to Natchez. His brother Truckee
died some years ago at Como, near Day.
ton, Nevada ; and was buried, at his own
request, by the whites, by whom consid-
cradle honor and respect was shown him.
Panco is now very old. feeble and blind
of an eye. His age, of course he knows
nothing of, but says that he had grown
up children at the time of his service
under Fremont. He expressed an earn
est desire to see the General again. If
any one ever deserved pension, in his
old age, from the government, for SER
vices and faithful friendship to the
whites, this old savage is entitled to one.

three horses started-Light Coin, Mis-.

DECORATION Day in the Eastern States
where the graves of the Union dead fill
vast cemeteries was observed with un-

At Memphis, General Forrest being in

the spirit of friendship and reconcilia-

many courtesies among those who, with

LITTLE Rock. May 29.-To-day has

sides. The procession moved from the
State House to the cemetery, where
sleep the dead of both armies side by
side. The speakers stand a. the
grounds was erected half on the Con
federate and half on the Federal side of
the wall which divides the two Gene

General Edsarton on the part of the
Federals. and also one by Major Gal

Hatchets were carried by ex-Confederate
and ex-Federal soldiers, and were buried
in the ground.

An Unlucky White Man, But a
Happy Niger.

d. S. Stevens was indicted for grand
larceny, arrested, and lodged in Jail, but
gave bond on Saturday last and released.
The charge against him was for steal
ing the keg of brandy that was lost out of
the stage between Beaver Dam and this
place some time last winter. Old uncle
Nathan Hines. of color, got religion"
over it. 1t seems that he was impressed
with the idea that Stevens had been in
strumental in having some of his family
indicted The night after Stevens was
lodged in Jail, Nathan shouted for joy all
night long. When his wife would fall
asleep, Nathan would rouse her and say,
"Old woman, they tell me Doc Stevens is
in Jail; is it so? The answer was"Yes I"
Good" and down would come his huge
foot on the bed, a hysterical laugh would
follow, and uncle Nathan was happy.

pOnt Appointed Receiver---Cur-
rent Expenses to be Paid First
aud then the Back Pay Settled;

On Friday morning the question of ap-
pointing a receiver for the Louisville,
Paducah and Southwestern railroad was
again brought before Judge Ballard in
the U. S. District court at Louisville
who made final order appointing Mr. B.
Dupont, (the President of the road) re-
ceiver. A delegation of the employees of
the road, consisting of about thirty per-
sons, were present to press their claims
for back pay Through their attorney
they moved that the first earnings of the
road under the receiver be used to pay off
the wages due the employees. but Judge
Ballard overruled the motion, and pro,
vided instead, the earnings should be
used to pay the current expenses, and
that the surplus after paying these ex-
penses be used to pay the baek-pay of the
employees before any other debt. The re-
ceiver was authorized to settle and COM
promise all claims amounting to any
sum less than $500. He is ordered not
to issue any script whatever, as it was
shown that on one day only thirty>6ve
cents in money had been received by the
road, the rest of the earnings being in
script The salary of the receiver lie to
be S4l6 &c per month, and he is to make
a monthly report before the tenth ofeach
month.

The Grand Jury AdjOurned.-Its
Composition, Labor, &c.

The grand jury convened again on
Thursday, and completed its labors and
adjourned sine die on Friday. The
youngest member was 20 years ofage. and
the eldest 60. The average age Of the
jurors was SO years and months. A
better and more efficient grand inquest
could not have been impanneled, and w.
D. Coleman, esq.,, is as good foreman as
Kentucky contains. The petit juries are
also composed of our very best citizens,
and they discharge their duties faithfully
and well. The grand jury returned
twenty-four indictments in addition to
those we published last week They were
classified as follows:
For adultery, q grand larceny, 2; incest,
l, (of colorG failing to keep road in order,
4; selling liquor to minor. l; perjury, l;
fornication, 5; keeping house OF ill>fame,

deadly weapons, l; keeping stallion with
out license, /; giving liquor to a minor, l.

The County Jail.

In another column we publish the re-
port of the grand jury on the county Jail.
1t viii be seen that they make out pref
ty strong case against the old nuisance.
We were struck. in reading the original
draft of the report, that the most vital
part OF it was eliminated before it left
the grand jury room. After showing up
the glazing defects of the present struct-
ure, the first draft recommended the OBJ
vious and only remedy-the erection of
a new Jail building. The necessity for a
new, safe, and convenient Jail building is
apparent TO every man in the county, and
particularly SO to the members of the
grand jury, who gave the building crit
ical inspection. Then why did they con-
tent themselves with only halfdoing their
dnty2 Were they deferred by the coward
ly fear that some picayunish and foolish
people would raise the cry against them
that they are trying to heap additional
taxation upon the people? File upon SO
craven a OF public fear clamor. To-day
the Jail is not only so insecure that pris-
oners have to be chained to the floor to
keep them from falling through the egg
shell walls. but it is, to ali practical in
tents and purposes, the county bawdy
house. The men and women who max
their way into jails are none too jealous
observers of the ten commandments, any
how, and the seventh one is no more re-
spected by them than the special one the
infraction OF which procured their incar-
The jailer cannot incarcerate
himself with his prisoners and compel
them to preserve decency in their conduct.
And he is left no alternative but to hud.
die men and women into the same room.
This thing needs correction. The only
is new Jail. Humanity de-
mands it. Decency demands it, and in
Inc long run, frugality requires it.

The Way They Work IL.

We have heard of a very enterprising
mercantile firm, composed of two gay
bachelors When a mother and daugh-
ter came in to deal with them, one Of
them sells goods to the old lady, while
the other, under the pretense of showing
flowers to the young one, pays court to
her. Now, we will not give the name OF
this firm, for, if we did, that class Of
mothers who are always looking out for
husbands for their daughters, would
throng their store to such an extent that
the young men could not accommodate
all Of their customers. If you want to
know the name address US privately.

SPRING LICK ITEMS.
SPRING LICK, KY, May "a.

SPRING LICK, KY, May "a.
After an absence of three weeks, we
again take up our pen to jot down few
items for the columns of your paper.
Business at this place has increased great
ly since the bark business began. There
will be about one hundred car loads
shipped from this station during the spring
and summer months.
THE HEAVY RAINS,
which fell here Saturday and Sunday will
damage the bark to some extent, provi-
ding the weather continues warm. The
rains, however, have been quite beneficial
to the crops. Wheat and oats have as
sumed quite different appearance from
that preceding the rains.
THE CROP PROSPECTS
atthe present writing promise an abap-
dant yield. The tobacco plants are not
so bountiful as could be hoped for, but
still it is thought and believed that there
is sufficient quantity left 10 transplant a
large acreage.
THE RAILROAD SCRIPT.
The agents along the line OF the L.. P.
q S. W. R. R. received orders yesterday
to reject the script issued by said railroad
in payment for labor performed by the
employees. The script was made good for
freight but the orders of yesterday were to
the effect that will not any longer be taken
in payment of freight-or anything else,
we presume. Ex-President B. Dupont,
ofsaid road, has been appointed receiver,
and entered upon the discharge of his
duty last Friday. 1t is to be hoped that
the financial condition of the road is moi
so critical as is currently reported.
THE LEGISLATIVE CONTEST
To-day the county court meets al
Leitchfield, and it is expected that the as
pirants for legislative honors will let of
their "big guns" In a previous letter to
the HERALD, We expressed belief that
the Changers in this county would moi
nominate a candidate for this position,
but We are informed by very prominent
member Of the order that steps are being
taken to hold a primary meeting in every
neighborhood in the county for the pur-
pose of getting the sense Of the people az
to who shall be the candidate to represent
us in the next Legislature. 1t is under.
stood, however, that every person in the
the neighborhood is expected to attend
these primary meetings, and report the
result to a general meeting to be holder
in Leitchfeld, in June; and on the same
day the County Council of Changers meets
in said place. This, to some, appears t.
be Granger move, and, while we en-
dorse heartily the principles. peculiar t.
the organization, we hope they will no
suffer politics to become one of the lead
ing characteristics of the order. A.

On last Saturday night row occurred
near the corner of L. Rosenberg d Bros
store between three negro boys. They
all wanted TO fight, but no one was
willing to begin the sport Finally the
larger one, Jim Collins. (who wanted to
whip the two smaller ones, who were
brothers, and named Carter, concluded
he would bluff them and carry off the
banner. He shed his "linen," prepared
for fighting and then made charge upon
them, but soon retreated from the field
with his left wrist somewhat mutilated.
The cutting was done by Ben. Carter.
