nation these reformers express at the alleged
they say is true OF the Republican managers
in the three States in dispute, it does rot
begin to compare in wickedness to the
known facts connected with the political
leaders, on the democratic side, in the Sd,
4th, and I'd districts Of Virginia.
| Although these outrages and frauds are
well known, we never see word of repri-
mand from democratic paper in Virginia.
They will be silent rs to the great wrongs
perpetrated right at their own doors, and
grow wild with viriuous wrath at the bal
suspicion of irregularity in distant States,
controlled by Republicans.
| It is something like their clanlnrs about
the alleged colruptions in the management
Of the affairs Of those States, when right here
at home, there is more Encouragement aud
partizan corruption than in all of them put
together. They make the people believe,
| too, that the citizens OF the distant States
in the South are oppressed and robbed, and
overpowered with debt, without saying one
word abous the tenfold greater burthens
that have been fastened upon their OWL
constituents. There is no State in the
Union that has been more outrageously OPP
pressed by any party, than is the State Of
Virginia by the democratic party. Its future
is gloomier, its prospects darker than any
other Southern State. Yet the people will
let their sytnpathies run out after other com
nlunties, and believe all the falsehoods that
gre charged against them, il they happen to
be undss Republican control, while they
tlem.elyes are iusIiing On, at rapid speed

PHILADELPHIA, September 1.-The
prize fight at Pennvally, yesterday, Is
prominent and exciting topic to day,
because of its brutality aud its trlglcal
end, The parties who participated
nearly all belong here. The pugiists,
James Wheedon and Phillip Walker
alias keester Cob, resided in this city.
Walker was barely twenty years of
age, being Il helper In n foundry. They
had fought twice before, Wheedon
winning the battle both times. They
had been in training i've weeks for
yesterdays battle, Wheedon at the
house of John Clark, and Walker
under the direction OF Sam Collier
Wheedon Isa native of England aud
Walker WAS OF German extraction
The fight was witnessed by about one
thousand roughs, who openly dehed
the sheriff and his officers,
and after the fight defied them
while coming up the river
in small boats aud landing
ut various points. Seventy-six rounds
were fought, in the last one Walker
was unable to strike blow and at
the end lay wholly insens.ble on the
grass and Collier threw up the sponge
Walker did not revive and died before
he could be brought home. A post
mortem examination held to-day in.
dicates that death was caused by CON
cussion OF the brain. Officers have
been hunting for the participants in
the fight all last night aud to-day, but
80 far only John Clark, one of the chief
promoters of this affair, has been at
rested. Report comes this afternoon
that Weldon, Walkers murderer, also
died of his injuries, having expired at
one OF the city hospitals, but the intel.
ligence il not confirmed.

The Situation I'm Morehouse Parish
serious ana Threatening
MONROE, September Fresh ex-
element sprung up last night in con-
sequence of report that the negroes
were armiug and coming to burn the
town. About stv,nty-6ve negroes
mounted and OF opt were found at
Captain Phillips place, when a parley
ensued and the ncir.'s refused TO dis.
arm, and said they w,lld oame hack
with five hundred men, The news
spread rapidly and the whites armed
from this and Morehouse parishes and
went to the scene. The excitement is
intense, but nothing occurred and not
gun was fired. The whites, includ.
ing the best men OF the parish, act
with the greatest forbearance. One of
the freedmen of the band of armed ne
groes said they were told to arm by the
sheriff of the parish, who is u colored
man, and come to Monroe and burn
the town. In the southern norton of
the parish, where the houses were fired
into and trouble begun, the leading
citizens report all quiet. Some scat
tering demonstrations, they say, were
made last night, but nothing serious
resulted. The situation is decidedly
anxious, but the leading citizens are
proceeding with prudence and moder-
alton. Not a loud word has been
heard In the town.

Peabody House-Centcunial.

The Cincinnati Daily Star says we
are sorry to learn that We are to miss
the presence of one of our well known
hotel proprietors. Col. James Wat
son, for twenty-one years proprietor of
the Henri House, has leased the Pea
body Hotel, corner of Ninth and Lo-
Gust streets, Philadelphia, immediate
ly in the center of the business part of
the city, only two squares from the
Centennial and Girard Hotels, and the
theatres. 1t is connected with street
cars from depots-saving carriage hire.
Mr.. Watson still leaves the Henri
House in charge of his old corps of
clerks and servants. Owing to the
popularity of Col. Watson with the
West, his adopted residence, and with
the South, being a native of Virginia,
there can be no doubt of his success.
He informs us that he will reserve
rooms for his friends in his hotel; or if
he has no rooms, upon application by
letter he will be pleased to secure them
at other quarters for them. His
charges are reasonable-S3 per day.

as well as the older persons in atten-

Hon. George w. Ray and Hon.
John Allen Murray, both candidates
for criminal Judge, were in town last
week. We were glad to see them, and
doubt not but either would make a
good judge, but then we feel that
Judge Gregory will be the choice of
the district. Why had not Ohio
county as well elect a judge as any
other? especially where the candidate
is as competent.
We were pleased to meet our friend
Bonner of the Monitor, in town the
other day.
We would like to mention the names
of " Misses So andSo," as the Grayson
county correspondent terms it, that
are visiting our town, but as he is a
good friend of ours, well not weary
him by having to read their names.
l would suppose from his item about
the "tick with white speck on its
back" that ticks are numerous in his
county-we do not have any in this
county-but musical(?) frogs, are in
abundance.
Business prevented my attending
the dinner prepared by the ladies of
Hartford to-day, but those who partook
thereof report that sumptuous fare
was on hand, and feel well paid for
their investment. The supper to-mor-
row night will be well attended, should
not Indictment weather prevent.
l trust all those in this community
who are not subscribers to the HERALD
will report their names to the agent at
this place inside the next two weeks.
A paper cannot live without the sup
port of the people. The cost of a
years subscription is a trihe compared
to the information you will receive,
and in aiding your paper you better
the condition of your county, and
greatly benefit yourselves.

spoke Of it as being gotten up by the

the case then, but we learn since that
many ladies in the country freely
added their might in getting up the
affair, and the success and large re.

omission was intentional on our part,
