Editors Register:
Ihsve just seen Saturdays REdIsTER,
containing reference to the Inteliigencer's
attack upon me. The story that l made
any political speech or any allusion to
politics in any public speech, is s false
fabrication. It was started by an OBJ
scure paper in Parkersburg, but the
editor ret-scted the lie the next evening.
Will Campbell be honorable enough to
do the same thing?

Reply Of the Porte.

A Paris correspondent of the TD,ss
telegraphs the following: The Porte's
first reply to the powers is q dead letter
His second reply is now officially known.
This reply has been communicated TO
the powers. The important points are
regarding the armistice and sdmlnistrs-
ton of the Christian provinces. 'The
Porte refuses to accept the term Of the
armistice because II cannot recoR
nize Servia as belIigerent but
consents TO a suspension Of hostilities,
duration not to be fixed, provided that
the Servisn army shsll not meanwhile be
reinforced by foreigners. As TO the
second point, the Porte accepts the pro-
posals Of the powers IN principle, but
proposes ~ give all Its provinces the
same liberties without distinction.
The Porte considers that II is absolutely
ruinous TO introduce different
treatment into the provinces. II IS will.
ing to place the reforms under the COL
lective guarantee Of Europe. In short,
the Porte SAYS either you wish should
not take any place among the civilized
States or are willing 10 consolidate me
by giving all my subjects the ssme
laws, privileges and security, or you may
persist in exsggeration, derision and an
tsgonism, because you only wish TO delay,
not prevent, my destruction. If the lat
ter is the case, l prefer to struggle now
q. the risk Of perishing, rather than re-
sign myself TO slower but inevitable
death.

LONDON, July 1S.-The reports of
Gen Olimpys concerning Turkish
cruelties says that the Turks have
killed several hundred women
and children. In Bosnia, they are
cutting women and children to
pieces, throwing them in the air
and catching them upon bayo-
nets. They cut off the heads and
arms of the dead and wounded,
whereas the wounded Turkish
prisoners are treated like Servi-
ans.

CUT HIS THROAT.
Two NJ en- Attack Carson p.
Reed and.Attempt to
Kill Him.

Elijah Garner and his nephew,
Anderson Rogers, rode up to Mrs.
Reeds last Thu sday evening about
, o'clock and commenced to curse
and abuse Mr.. Carson p. Reed, who
was there covering a house for his
mother. It seems they were tenants
of Mrs. Reed last year, and Carson
had a few days before settled with
them for his mother. They seemed
satisfied with the settlement then,
but returned on Thursday in rage
about it. Mr. Reed tried to reason
with them, but they continued to
curse him, and finally Garner began
to dismount from his horse, with a
long knife drawn in his hand, using
threatening words and still cursing.
As he dismOunted Reed threw the
hammer he held in his hand at him,
striking him in the head and stun
ming him for a moment. As soon
as Reed threw his hammer Rogers
closed in with him, but was getting
wOrsted in the struggle, when Gar
ner rushed up behind him and cut
his throat with his knife, and then
picked up a rock and hurled it at
him, missing him, AID was in the
act of throwing another, when a ne
gro interposed and stopped him.
Mr. Reed did not know he was cut
until after the difficulty was over,
but it was then ascertained that the
knife had entered his neck just at
the edge of his hair back of the ear
and cut its way around to the front
of the throat, making an incision of
about eight inches in length and a
half inch in depth. The knife
the jugular vein only the
of an inch. Mrs. Reed
Immediately bound up the wound
and a messenger was sent for DR..
Grant. When the Doctor got there
Mr.. Reed had almost bIed to death,
but the bleeding was then staunched.
1t was a well aimed and deadly
stroke, but it has proved not to be
fatal, as was at first feared. He has
been gradually improving since and
will recover, it is thought. Garner
and Rogers were arrested that night
and tried before Esq. Tarpley Fri
day morning and committed to jail.

A Tribute to the Memory of
Hattie Hopkins from her
Classmates.

By request of the class of which we
are members, it has become our sad du-
ty, as committee, to write a suitable
tribute TO the memory of our much loved
class-mate, HATTIE HOPKINS. Language
fails us when we attempt TO express the
sorrow we feel at the loss of one 50 good
and gentle. Hattie had long been a pa
tsent sufferer, and death was slowly but
surely making fearful inrOads upon her
fran constitution, but we were not pre-
pared for the sudden blow that swept
her from our midst. She went to her
home at the beginning OF the holidays a
little unweli, but soon to return, as we
thought, well and happy. But alas /!
when teachers and pupils again met to
renew their duties, there was one face
and form missing from the accustomed
place. And now, when we kneel in
prayer with our venerable President,
there is one less to claim an interest in
his petition when the roll is called no
Hattie answers; at recitation we miss
sweet face and gentle voice; there is
vacant seat among us; and when our
daily task is done, there is one less TO
bid goodbye with the s. eet thought of
happy greeting on the morrow. Many
mOrrows shall come that will bring no
Hattie she has closed her books and
gone from the college walls for the last
time, leaving a vacancy there. To her
bereaved parents. brothers and sisters,
we extend our deep and heartfelt SYM
pathy; next to them, we, her sorrowiug
classmates, miss her most. But we
mourn her not a one forever lost, for
we know that God claims such as she to
inhabit his own bright Kingdom. We
viii strive to emulate her pure example,
and in Heaven at last may we be re-
united a perfect, unbroken class.

EDITOR CITIZEN will you allow
me little space in your paper to
return my thanks to the citizens of
Pulaski, and the many I have met
from Giles county, for the cordial
manner in which they have respond

year past, that of inducing good,
substantial immigration OF skill and
capital from the North.
The CITIZEN, from the start, open

estly labored for its success, but
not, until the past week, have l had
the pleasure of meeting your citi-
zens. NV short visit with them has
been a very pleasant one, and 1
shall carry with me pleasant mem
cries of the acquaintance L have
formed. They have generously re
sponded to the proposition to raise
club Of at least 80 to our weekly
paper in Giles county, which will
entitle them to the use of its col

tages of this county to the many
thousands of prospective immi-
grants North who read our paper
Here let me say a word to the
several Oranges in Giles county, to
all of which l have written, request
ing them, each, to make up clubs
and send up to Nashville at once

make up twenty to twenty-five each.
The paper contains as much reading
matter as the ordinary 50 90 pa
pers, is published weekly, is one OF
the BEST agricultural papers pub
lisLed, aud is sent out weekly. for
one year for only 9ly-cents. Let
this matter be attended to at once
To encourage any Grange to act
vigorously and at once, we offer tc
publish a short separate description
of their section, if they will raise {
club of % subscribers in that sec
ton.
We want every family in Gle.
county to read our paper, in ordel
to interest them in the cause o
immigration, and to show them tina
it is to be a success, that immi
grants are now coming, and that j
requires only a little effort, in max
ing known your resources, and Al
assurance of a cordial reception, t,
get large numbers. Not a trail
now arrives at Nashville. but bring
more or less.
Hoping that l shall often hav
the pleasure of meeting the citizen
