NARROW EscAPE.-Tuesday night
Ed. Tully got little noisy in the
Delta Saloon, in Lower Gold Hill,
and Waterman Cassidy tried to
quiet him. While so doing, Tully
rose from the chair in which he had
been sitting, and struck Cassidy un-
der the right eye; he then drew a
six-shooter, cooked it and fired; but
Cassidy, fortunately, was too quick
for him, and threw his arm up. But
for that, there might have been a
good man murdered, and the mark
of Cain branded on the forehead of
another. The two men scuffled for
a time, and then Tully was over
powered and locked up,

The Natchitoches indicator, than
which there is no more rabid Demo-
cratic journal in Louisiana-barring,
perhaps, the Shreveport 1iaes-finds
something, at least, in the Ohio Re-
publican platform to commend. We
are surprised that it should admit
that any good can come out of Re-
publican Nazareth, and We hail the
spirit of candor as an encouraging
sign. Says the Vhsdicator:
The platform Of the Ohio Republi-
cans rings out the true issue, and the
first plank brings lis face to face with
the facts we have in future to deal
with. The question of this govern
ment being nation of individuals or
q community of States, will be de-
,cided at the ballot-bo at once and
for all time, in the fall elections of
l876-speed the day.
