If Hayes should be inaugurated
president in March next, he will
literally have '.waded through
slaughter to a throne" for no in-
telligent man can doubt that the
leaders of the Radical party in
Louisiana and elsewhere caused the
murder of negroes in certain parish
es in that State just before the late
election in order to find an excuse
for the Returning Board to throw
out those parishes in canvassing the
vote and thus elect Hayes. Every
act of blood or violence attributed
to Democrats was committed by
Radicals at the instigation of the
leaders of the Radical party, and
the time is coming when the God OF
truth and justice will make the fact
manifest to the world L. Cour. Jour.

well in her tragic pieces her reading of

there was no GESTURE, arch look, laughing
eye or offended expression which her
supple form and expressive eye did not
supply ut the proper moment, and her
audience was so thoroughly appreciative
that their subdued though hearty laugh

were unfortunately debarred the pleas

BROADHEAD FOR PRESIDENT.

w see in a long communication
from Washington to the St. Louis
Republican of the 18th inst, that
there is not only a possibility, but a
probability that Missouri will have q
strong candidate for the democratic
nomination for president, in the per-
son of the Hon. Jas. o. Broadhead, of
ST. Louis. We regret that our space
will not permit all extended notice of
this letter, but we observe as one of
its features that this candidacy is the
result of a speech made by Col. Jno.
Reid in a meeting of prominent gen.
tlemen i'll Washington City, when the
effort was being made to secure the
convention for St. Louis. A gentle
man having stated that Missouri was
neutral ground, and did not claim to
have any presidential timber, Col.
Reid protested hat Missouri had
plenty of presidential timber, and
that he did not want it to be said that
the state would have no candidate.
Out of this there grew a nomination
by ex-Gov Magotin, of Ken
lucky, of Mr.. Broadhead, aud the
correspondent asserts that Kentucky
Pennsylvania and Wisconsin are al
ready in line, and urges Missouri to
be united i'll the convention, aud
thinks that she will succeed.

While the Methodist brethren

While the Methodist brethren were
holding a p]rotracted meeting at Fergu-
sons school-house, in Sniabar township,
last Saturday evening, a difficulty arose
near the Westinghouse between two
young men, Thomas Jones and Charles
Mcdaniel, and Jones stabbed Mcdaniel
in the back, between the shoulders.
The wound is L serious one but not dan
gerous, if he takes care of himself. The
difficulty grew out OF an old quarrel.
Jones was arrested. and had a prelimi-
nary examination before Squire Newton
Bledsoe, and was bound over in the sum
of 5000. There are ap~prehensions that
this fracas is but the beginning Of a feud,
as McD. went to Jones house Monday
evening and called him out to shoot
him. Jones went out, and was only
saved by his wife, who ran between
them. McD. is said to have told J. to
say his prayers, as his time had come.

that the n%eighbors will be able to recon
Gle these hot-headed youths.
