There is on old man in our midst, an
em;grant from Middle Tennessee as early
as 1917, who remembers very well to
have seen the bearer of dispatches from
Washington City to General Jackson,
announcing the treaty Of peace with
Great Britain in 1915. he describes
the aforesaid individual as riding at Z
break.neck speed, with his trumpe
swung around his neck, drafting a fresl
horse at every ten or fifteen miles Of hi
route, and announcing himself as onl.
ten days out from the Federal City wheI
he saw him at Bludsoe's Lick, in Sum
ner county, and declaring his orders t
be to reach New Orleans with the great
est possible dispatch, and to anticipat
if possible the collision of arms. Th
widest excitement prevailed as thi
bearer of good tidings sped through tn
country.

THE DIAMOND E

The Game of Base Bali ut Central
Park Yesterday.
The match game Of baseball yesterday
at Central Park between the Memphis
Reds and Biversides was witnessed by a
large crowd Of the admirers Of this pop
ulsr game, some seven or eight hundred
people being in attendance. A light
rain in the morning cooled the atmos-
phere and put the grounds in fine condi-
ton for the players. The game opened
with a "~whitewash" for both clubs in the
FIRST innings, but on their second inning
the Riversides made three runs, the first
score 10 the game. This put the Reds
on their metal, and they went to work in
earnest-as will be seen by the score be-
low, the Riversides making but one more
run in the game. The latter club is i'm
proving rapidly, and some Of its mem
bers could safely enter the ranks of the
professionals. The effect Of close prae-
tice by the Reds il observable, and if
they hold together during the summer
and continue to improve the best clubs
in the country will find q formidable
rival when they wander in this direction
expecting a soft" game. The following
is the score:

The Coming Election
IF NEW YORK

The Cincinnati Enquirer is making fig
ures on the approaching Presidential cleo
ton, and figures, too, which it will be
hard to dispute. 1t says: The Republican
press is actively engaged in spreading
abroad Republican prophecies in counting
the Electoral vote in advance. 1t is already
manifest that the desire for change is in
creasing, that the Democratic ticket is
surely, steadily gaining ground. This
tendency will continue till November. Til
den and Hendricks will grow in strength
from this time till the election; it has in it
the elements Of growth-the Republican
ticket has none. 1t is interesting, there
fore. to note what the Republicans con-
cede at this stage Of the canvass. The
National Republican Executive Commit
tee have put their opinions on record, and
they are practically a concession of the
election to the Democrats. These are their
figures upon the Electoral vote:

Russia and Turkey Not Going to War

LONDON, Sept, Z. The opinion report
ed from Berlin to the Standard that the
outbreak of Russian Turkish war was
unavoidable is not entertained ut the other
capitals. On the contrary, there seems to
be II growing confidence that the general
peace of Europe will be maintained how
ever difficult may be the settlement of de-
tails between the Turks and the insurg-
ents The Porte's refusal to grant an arm
istice is also un confirmed. but it is not
thought unlikely, and it is believed the re.
suit of such refusal would be an immedi-
ate resort to formulation of terms of peace
between Servia and Montenegro and Tur-
key, leaving the question of the insurrect-
ed provinces for subsequent settlement
communication is going the rounds Of
diplomatic circles. from Prince Gortscha-
kotf, to the effect that Russia wants peace
Tor number of years, and then, besides.
the Emperor is decided to have peace, and
there is every ground to suppose the other
powers are equally desrous to have it; at
least. Judging by their assurances, he may
reckon on their hearty corporations in
this direction.
